Chapter 142: "Misunderstanding (12)"
When Lin Zi heard this, he still didn't give up, grabbed the corner of Lin's father's clothes, and said coquettishly: "Lao Lin, I know that you love me the most, so you can help me one last time, just once." β
Looking at Lin Zi's appearance, Father Lin was embarrassed: "I ......"
Before Father Lin finished speaking, Mother Lin's voice sounded.
"Lao Lin, why haven't you gone to the company yet, Uncle Chen has been stopping at the door for a long time."
"Here, I'll go right away."
"Your father and daughter have a really good relationship, and they are tired of being together again in the morning, shouldn't you be together and discussing how to deal with me?"
Mother Lin looked at Lin Zi and Father Lin with a sneaky look on their faces and asked.
"What's the matter, how can we deal with you, okay, I'm going to the company, and there's a very important meeting later."
With that, Father Lin got up and was about to leave.
Lin Zi looked at Lao Lin who couldn't be counted on and couldn't help sighing, originally thinking that the three stinkers would be Zhuge Liang, it seemed that his mother was more Kong Ming than Zhuge Liang, there was no way, so he had to bite the bullet and finally beg for it, if he didn't agree this time, he could only give up and obediently accept his fate.
So, Lin Zi walked in front of Mother Lin, pulled Mother Lin to the dining table and sat down, poured a glass of water for Mother Lin with dedication, and said to Mother Lin with a smile: "Mom, do I have to go today?" Actually, I really have something to do today, I didn't lie to you, and ah, I made an appointment with someone before, I can't break my promise, mom, you say yes. β
"Oh, you promised someone earlier, you can't break your promise, then you promised me to see Mrs. Li's nephew, how can you break your promise with me?"
Mother Lin asked rhetorically at Lin Zi.
"Mom, let me tell you this, I don't want to go on a blind date, I really don't want to go on a blind date."
Lin Zi saw that Mother Lin was indifferent, so she simply broke the jar and broke it.
"Now I've finally told the truth, let's continue to talk about why you don't want to go on a blind date."
Lin Mu said, picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip of water.
"Mom, didn't I tell you about this before, I just don't want others to think that I'm the kind of cheap product, like a product that is about to be removed from the shelves in the supermarket."
"Anything else?"
Mother Lin glanced up at Lin Zi and asked.
"Yes, of course there is, love should be natural, how can you force two people you don't know to communicate under everyone's scrutiny, what's the difference between this and the monkeys in the zoo, and, it's not ancient times, why do you have to be ordered by your parents to match your words, is there no freedom in love?"
The more Lin Zi spoke, the more excited he became.
"Are you finished?"
Mother Lin looked at Lin Zi and asked.
"That's it."
Lin Zi poured himself a large glass of water as he answered, drank it all, and said so much that his throat was dry.
"But that's not enough to convince me that I can keep you from going on a blind date."
"This, this can't convince you, then I can't help it."
"Because that's not what you mean."
Mother Lin looked at Lin Zi with a serious face and said.
"That's what I mean."
Lin Zi retorted unconvinced.
"If you can't think of something to convince me, go upstairs obediently, change into the clothes I gave you, and go out with me."
"Mom~~"
It seems that it doesn't make sense, so I have to be coquettish.
So, Lin Zi took Lin's mother's arm and said coquettishly.
"It's useless for me to be coquettish, okay, go upstairs and change clothes, Sister-in-law Lin will take her upstairs."
When Sister-in-law Lin heard Mother Lin's voice, she hurriedly ran over and said to Lin Zi, "Xiaozi, you go upstairs to change your clothes first." β
Seeing that the resistance was ineffective, Lin Zi had no choice but to give up, all the efforts had been made, but he couldn't convince his mother, so it seemed that he had to be slaughtered by someone today, and then he would find a way.
So, Lin Zi had no choice but to turn around and go upstairs.
"Madam, why are you so pushing?"
Sister-in-law Lin looked at Lin Zi's lonely back and said with some distress.
"I just want her to be honest with me."
Lin Mu shook the water glass in her hand and said lightly.
"Honestly?"
Sister-in-law Lin was a little confused when she heard Mother Lin say this.
"She still thinks I didn't see it, she goes out early and returns late every day, dressed up so beautifully, it's not a date, what else can she do?"
"It turns out that she is already in love, so why does my wife take her on a blind date?"
"I don't force her so much, she definitely won't tell me the truth, I just want her to bring the other party back for me to see, if the other party is good and good to her, why should I break them up? However, my daughter is hard-mouthed, just like me, and since she is unwilling to tell the truth, then I have to do it. β
After Lin Mu finished speaking, she picked up the water cup and took a sip of water.
Lin Zi returned to the room, feeling very regretful, he even felt that he could rely on his eloquence to make his mother give up the idea of letting him go on a blind date, he was still too young.
Sure enough, don't reason with women.
In particular, don't reason with your mother, because the other party has no reason to talk about it at all.
Lin Zi understood.
There was no way, Lin Zi had to tell Yi Zhen that he couldn't see him today, so Lin Zi took out his mobile phone and was just about to send a message to Yi Zhen, but he didn't expect the other party's call to come.
"Hey."
"Hey, Xiao Zi."
"Yi Zhen, what's wrong?"
"I want to ask you, are you up and ready to go out?"
"I'm not ready to go out yet. Yi Zhen, I have something to tell you. β
"That's great, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?"
"What's the matter?"
The two of them invariably asked each other at the same time.
"You speak first."
"You speak first."
Hearing that the other party was synchronized with themselves again, the two couldn't help laughing.
"Yi Zhen, you can say it first."
Lin Zi said into the phone.
"Alright, I'll start with that. I didn't tell you to pick you up today, but I just received a call from my assistant temporarily. β
Yi Zhen's voice was a little embarrassed.
"Your assistant?"
"Well, he said that he talked to me about an investor, it was about a TV series I filmed before, and then he made an appointment for me today, I originally wanted to shirk it, but he said that this was negotiated before, and it was quite important, so I may not be able to pick you up today, I'm sorry, Xiaozi."
"It's okay, it's okay, no matter what, work is still very important, I'm fine, don't blame yourself."
Lin Zi comforted Yi Zhen on the other end of the phone.
"By the way, Xiao Zi, what did you just say to me?"
Yi Zhen asked.
"I actually want to tell you about this, today my mother must let me accompany her to a party, I wanted to shirk it, but I really can't shirk it, so I want to tell you that we may not be able to meet today."
"It seems that we all have our own things today, so let's meet again tomorrow?"
"Well, we'll see you tomorrow."
Lin Zi was standing on the balcony talking to Yi Zhen on the phone, and Sister-in-law Lin's voice rang outside the door.
"Xiaozi, have you changed it, my wife is urging downstairs."
"Here we are."
Lin Zi put down the phone, turned his head and shouted at the door, then picked up the phone and said to Yi Zhen: "Well, Yi Zhen, my mother is calling me, I may have to hang up first." β
"Well, you go get busy first, I'm going out with my assistant too, let's talk on the phone again in the evening."
"Okay."
After Lin Zi finished speaking, he smiled sweetly at the air.
After Yi Zhen hung up the phone, the smile on his face did not leave.
"Brother, brother, brother."
The little assistant shook his hand in front of Yi Zhen.
"Huh?"
Yi Zhen came back to his senses, looked at the little assistant a little confused and asked.
"Brother, what's wrong with you, smiling so happily?"
The little assistant has been by Yi Zhen's side for so long, and it is rare to see Yi Zhen smile so happily.
"It's okay, okay, didn't you make an appointment with an investor, let's go."
With that, Yi Zhen went out with his assistant.
"Xiao Zi, are you okay?"
Lin Zi was getting dressed in a panic, and Sister-in-law Lin's voice sounded again outside the door.
"Alright, alright, I'm here."
Lin Zi pulled on the heels of his high heels and walked to the door.
"Alright, let's go."
With that, Lin Zi followed Sister-in-law Lin downstairs.
Mother Lin sat in the living room and looked at Lin Zi's outfit today, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Yes, I am dressed well today." Let's go, let's get in the car. β
With that, Mother Lin took Lin Zi into the car.
The car was parked in front of an upscale hotel.
Lin Zi looked at the hotel outside the window, looked at Lin Mu with some confusion and asked, "Mom, why is the place where you hold the party in a hotel?" β
"Yes, we booked the banquet hall on the second floor, let's get off."
After speaking, Lin Mu got out of the car first.
Lin Zi followed Lin Mu and got out of the car.
"Remember what I taught you before?"
Mother Lin said to Lin Zi beside her.
"Remember, smile."
As he spoke, Lin Zi smiled at Mother Lin.
βPerfectοΌ Very well, trust me, Mommy will definitely put you in the spotlight today. β
Lin Zi looked at Lin Mu's appearance, so he had to smile and nodded, but he couldn't help but say in his heart, whoever wants to be the focus of the audience, it is best for him to stand in the corner, and no one notices himself.
Lin Zi followed Mother Lin to the banquet hall, half of the people had already come, saying that it was a small gathering, but there were so many people who came, and many Lin Zi had seen it more than once.
"Mrs. Lin, you're here."
As soon as Lin Mu and Lin Zi entered the door, a woman full of luxury walked in the direction of Lin Zi and Lin Mu.
This woman, Lin Zi knows, Mrs. Li has been here at her birthday party before, and later some of the dinner parties of their noble ladies group, Lin Zi has also participated in a lot, so Lin Zi is still familiar with these individuals. She is the other organizer of today's party, that is, the important person that Lin's mother wants to take Lin Zi to meet, Mrs. Li.
"Mrs. Li, thank you for your hard work, we delayed at home for a while, how is it, are all the people on the list here?"
Mother Lin asked Mrs. Li.
"That's for sure, with the party jointly organized by you and me, everyone will definitely give us face."
Mrs. Li smiled at Mother Lin. Take a hundred plating, and read the latest chapter of "The Centripetal Direction of the Star: The Way Home, Claw Bookstore" for the first time.
