Volume 1 Chapter 120 Prospective Daughter-in-law?
Lin Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment, and then understood that she was joking with herself. Ha Luha smiled, picked up the coat hanging on the wall next to him, made a respectful gesture and said, "So, my dear teacher Zhou, your dear student is very hungry right now, why don't we go and eat something first?" ”
"Okay"
The joke can be stopped, she still remembers Lin Xiaozhi's identity, and smiled and stroked a naughty strand of hair in front of her forehead, "Let's go to everyone in the parking lot, I like the barbecued pork rice over there"
"No problem"
Lin Xiaozhi readily agreed, he didn't pay too much attention to eating, he didn't eat spicy, and he could eat anything else, whether it was 'fragrant, sweet, salty, spicy, or light, but he was not picky.
The two of them went downstairs through the side door and left the ATV building, talking and laughing as they walked towards the Café de Corals chain on the other side of the parking lot. As soon as he walked near the parking lot, Lin Xiaozhi's mobile phone rang
With Zhou Huimin making an apologetic look, Lin Xiaozhi frowned and pressed the answer button on the big brick: "Hey......"
The sadness of business people, Lin Xiaozhi actually doesn't like to carry around this kind of mobile phone that looks comparable to bricks. But as the president of New Asia, he really can't do without a mobile phone, so he can only frown and carry it with him.
"It's me"
A slightly low middle-aged male voice came from the other side of the phone, Lin Xiaozhi was stunned, the person who called him turned out to be his cheap father.
"Dad, what? Find me something......"
Lin Xiaozhi lowered his voice, and his heart was faintly empty. He has been staying at Ye Yuqing's house very frequently recently, and he has probably had at least a week of not returning home in the past month. Could it be that the fact that he didn't go back last night angered the family, and his cheap dad was angry?
Lin Jiannian's voice did sound a little unhappy, and as soon as his words fell, his voice on the other side of the phone raised a little, "What?" Can't I call you if there's nothing to do? ”
"Didn't I say that?" Lin Xiaozhi hurriedly explained, "Dad, what's the matter with me?" ”
He glanced at Zhou Huimin, who was standing quietly on the side, and smiled apologetically at the woman who looked at him, "I'm with my colleagues, if there's nothing urgent, let's go home at night."
"Are you busy right now?" Lin Jiannian's voice was a little higher, "If it's okay, go home immediately, there's something."
"Hello?"
He was about to ask clearly, when suddenly the phone hung up, making his second brother-in-law's head scratch, so he could only shake his hand angrily.
"What's wrong, Lin Sheng? Do you have anything else? Zhou Huimin stood aside, vaguely heard some conversations between their father and son, and knew that his family urged him to go back as soon as possible.
Lin Xiaozhi was a little depressed, "Who knows what happened to Lu Dao, and he didn't make it clear on the phone." ”
Since Dad asked him to go back as soon as possible, there should be something urgent, although he didn't make it clear on the phone, Lin Xiaozhi still decided to go home and have a look first
He said apologetically to Zhou Huimin: "Miss Zhou, I'm really sorry. It seems that I don't have the honor to treat you to barbecued pork rice today."
The corners of Zhou Huimin's mouth curved into an arc, "Okay next time, does Lin Sheng have anything important to do......
"Well, I'm starting to envy your future husband a little, and I don't know who has the honor to marry such a gentle wife" He joked with a smile, and his hand touched his pocket and his face suddenly changed slightly.
Listening to him joke about himself, Zhou Huimin was about to speak, but suddenly his face changed, and he asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”
"The key was left in the office"
He sighed and glanced at the ATV building. It took more than ten minutes to go back and forth, and he didn't know if there was something urgent at home, so he decided not to go back and get it, so he took a taxi
As a result, looking up at the straight avenue, Lin Xiaozhi sighed again. There are a lot of taxis in Hong Kong, but at this moment, there is not a single taxi on the road.
"Otherwise, take my car. I'll send you ......" Zhou Huimin also saw this, and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Lin Xiaozhi thought about it, and then nodded, "Then it's bothering you."
Zhou Huimin said that it was to send him, but the person driving was Lin Xiaozhi. No way, although she has been getting her driver's license for more than half a year, she is not very good at driving, and she is also very slow to drive. Lin Xiaozhi was so anxious that he didn't know what his family was doing to urge him back in such a hurry, so Yu Crisp took the key and drove the car, keeping the fastest speed not to be chased by the traffic police all the way, and rushed back to the Lin Mansion.
Even on Austin Road, where every inch of land is expensive, the Lin Mansion with more than 16,400 square feet (about 18 square meters) is definitely a luxury villa, although Zhou Huimin has also heard a lot of rumors about the company's young president from a wealthy family, but after all, he has not experienced it personally, so when he saw such a huge luxury villa for the first time, he was shocked for a long time before he came back to his senses.
Lin Xiaozhi, who was going to park the car near the Lin Mansion and get off, glanced at Zhou Huimin in the passenger seat, and suddenly felt that it was too rude to throw people here like this and then go home by himself. Since they're all here, why don't you entertain them?
Thinking like this, he drove the car directly to the gate and honked the horn to remind him to open the door.
"Lin Sheng......" Zhou Huimin's face changed, but he didn't expect him to want to drive the car directly into the mansion.
"We have always had a late lunch at home, since we are all here, let's have lunch together, you have to delay dozens of minutes on the road if you rush back now, and it is my sin to starve you" Seeing that the guard recognized him from the window and opened the door, Lin Xiaozhi smiled apologetically at her, and drove the car directly into the garage of the Lin Mansion.
"But ......"
Zhou Huimin's face was anxious, where did she think that Lin Xiaozhi would be so domineering, and she didn't have any time to react, so she made her own decision. Glancing at the door that was slowly closing again, she sighed slightly in her heart, looking at an old man who came out of the mansion not far away, her expression stiffened and she secretly cheered herself up, "See the move, take one step at a time."
"Young Master Sun, you're back"
Fu Bo heard that a servant came to report that Young Master Sun was back, and hurriedly greeted him, and he saw Zhou Huimin in professional women's clothes at a glance, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Young Master Sun, this young lady is ......"
"Grandpa Fu" Lin Xiaozhi nodded to him, and then pointed to Zhou Huimin, who was following him and was obviously very nervous, and said: "This is my colleague, you can call her Miss Zhou directly"
"Oh" His answer was exchanged for a meaningful tone from Fu Bo, and the old man's eyes turned back and forth on Lin Xiaozhi and Zhou Huimin's body for a while, the smile on his face became thicker and thicker, and he respectfully saluted Zhou Huimin: "Hello Miss Zhou, I am the housekeeper of Lin Mansion......"
"You...... Hello" Zhou Huimin was stared at by him uncomfortably, but after all, he was the host of the D-Yin program on the radio and had a big heart. After taking a deep breath, the uneasiness and panic on her face disappeared for a while, and she returned to her usual Yu Lian and decent: "My name is Zhou Huimin, and I am Mr. Lin's secretary."
Lin Xiaozhi frowned slightly, he never talked about his company at home, and he never took the initiative to mention it if his family didn't ask.
Fu Bo didn't understand what she meant by Mr. Lin, but seeing that Zhou Huimin had returned to her usual gentleness and decency, the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, and hurriedly led the two of them to the hall.
"Young Master Sun, it's just the right time for you and Miss Zhou to come back, lunch is just ready, please follow me to the restaurant first."
"Hmm" Lin Xiaozhi responded, slowed down his pace and walked side by side with Zhou Huimin, lest she was not used to it.
"Grandpa Fu, is something happening at home? My dad just gave me a phone call out of the blue and told me to come home right away."
Fu Bo really didn't know what to say, and shook his head, "The young master is also here, you can ask him later."
"Oh well"
As soon as he entered the restaurant, several eyes instantly fell on Lin Xiaozhi's body. Lin Xiaozhi glanced around and found that the little mother and the third child were not there, and the old man was also pretending to be sick in the hospital now, and there were only the father and eldest brother and wife in the restaurant, and it seemed that they had just taken their seats. He frowned slightly, glanced at Lin Jiannian, and heard his father snort: "It's so difficult to get you home for a meal, what have you been busy with lately?" Is it the recurrence of the old disease, and the night ...... again Uh......"
Dad really has good eyesight, and he saw Zhou Huimin following Lin Xiaozhi at a glance, and the words of criticism were also swallowed forced.
"Young Master"
Fu Bo's face was happy, he really didn't see that his body was still so strong after he was too old, he walked a few steps quickly to Lin Jiannian's side, and after whispering a few words to him, looking at his father, whose eyes were getting brighter and brighter, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and suddenly he felt that he had made a wrong decision by leaving Zhou Huimin for lunch.
"Zhou ...... Miss Zhou, right?"
Lin Xiaozhi didn't know what Lu Dao Fu Bo said in his father's ear, but he didn't need to know Lu Dao, just looked at Zhou Huimin with the eyes of his daughter-in-law, and knew that Lu Dao was definitely not what he wanted to know.
Zhou Huimin was stared at a little restrained again, but nodded quietly, "Yes, hello"
"Our family has always been very hospitable, Ah Zhi, this kid rarely brings friends home, you are Ah Zhi's friend, just treat this place as your home." Lin Jiannian looked her up and down for a while, and nodded as if he was more satisfied.
Fu Bo's side immediately arranged: "Young Master Sun, Miss Zhou, please sit here"
Lin Xiaozhi nodded, said hello to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, ignored the two with strange faces, and sat next to Zhou Huimin.
"Miss Zhou likes to eat Cantonese food, if there are still ingredients in the kitchen, let the kitchen add another goo pork and Tai Chi shrimp......"
Lin Xiaozhi ordered, because he had to help him tutor English at noon, and the two often ate together, and Lin Xiaozhi still knew her taste.
"Thank you"
She whispered a thank you, Lin Xiaozhi smiled at her, and then frowned and looked at Lin Jiannian, "Dad, is there anything wrong with letting me come back at noon?" ”
"Can't I let you come back for a meal without trouble?"
Lin Jiannian is this stinky temper, although he is glad that the most difficult second child in his family has learned well now, but he is still as unkind to him as before. Standard knife mouth, tofu heart.
Lin Xiaozhi just looked at him and smiled and didn't answer, to use a popular phrase in later generations, it is everyone who is so busy, how can there be this American time mushroom. He didn't believe it, if there was nothing to do, Lin Jiannian, who was busy cleaning up the old mountains and rivers of the Kowloon Bank on weekdays, and ignored him for a while, would make a phone call at noon to urge him to hurry home, just to have a meal.
Sure enough, seeing that he didn't believe it, Lin Jiannian was about to reprimand him a few words because he didn't return home at night some time ago. When the words came to his mouth, his eyes unconsciously turned to Zhou Huimin, who his son brought home for the first time and suspected that he was dating his girlfriend. At that moment, he swallowed those words of reprimand, and was ready to save some face for him in front of his future daughter-in-law-to-be.
Without reprimand, he had no choice but to admit baldly: "...... Your ninth uncle came to call in the morning and wanted you to go to his villa on Tsing Yi Island in the evening, saying that he wanted to ask your opinion on something......"
After saying that, he stared at Lin Xiaozhi with a strange expression, glaring at the boss's eyes, as if he wanted to see the object in front of him that was suspected to be Lin Xiaozhi.
Lin Baixin looked for herself
Lin Xiaozhi frowned, lowered his head and thought hard.
