Chapter 239: "Chance Encounter"
Lin Zi turned on the hot water and filled the entire bathtub, and she soaked herself in the hot water.
The heat was thick and foggy in the mirror, and she turned her head, and her self in the mirror gradually blurred.
She dipped her towel in hot water and vigorously wiped the marks of the man's kiss on her body until her fair skin instantly turned red.
In the car, Jack was dragged into the car by Xu Chenrui.
Jack tried to struggle and escaped several times without success, so he had to sit obediently and sulk.
Xu Chenrui didn't pay attention to him, his eyes looked at the street scene flying outside the window, and his eyes gradually became deeper.
As soon as Lin Zi got out of the elevator, he smelled the smell of wine emanating from her, but he knew that this was not her drinking, with his understanding of her, if she was really full of alcohol, she must have been drunk, but looking at Lin Zi's appearance just now, she was sober, which showed that this alcohol came from others.
Still a man.
Jack is impossible, although he is a little distracted, but he is also a decent gentleman.
There is a faint kiss mark on the side of Lin Zi's neck, who could it be?
Thinking of this, Xu Chenrui's hand couldn't help but clench.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Lin Zi got up and went to the company, and as soon as he arrived at the office, there was a person sitting in the office.
Sao Bao's pink shirt, light gray slacks, white leather shoes, and a Rubik's Cube in his hand, he looks like a full second ancestor.
Who would it be if it wasn't Jack.
Hearing the voice, Jack immediately looked over, and the second became serious.
"Lin, you're finally here."
Lin Zi put the bag down and looked at him, "What's wrong?" β
Such a serious look.
"I really don't want to live with Xu Chenrui anymore."
As he spoke, Jack gave him an innocent and sincere look.
Lin Zi was a little crying and laughing, she thought something big had happened, so she asked him to wait here early in the morning, but it turned out to be such a thing again.
It's just that Lin Zi is getting more and more curious, what happened to him with Xu Chenrui, and let him come to spit out his bitterness with him for two days in a row.
"What did he do to you?"
Lin Zi took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, picked up the watering can next to him, and watered the two bunches of green plants.
"He actually made an appointment with me for three chapters."
"Chapter 3 of the Covenant? Jack didn't expect that when you first came here, you would still use the word "three chapters" of the law. It seems that you have learned Chinese well with Xu Chenrui. β
βComeonοΌ He's a devil! He won't let me see you secretly, and he forces me to do the housework, ohmygod! Am I his servant? β
Jack crossed his waist and complained to Lin Zi.
Lin Zi couldn't help but be a little amused when he saw Jack's angry appearance.
"Jack, do you know what you look like now?"
"What?"
Jack was curious.
"In our Chinese language, you are the little daughter-in-law who married into her husband's family and was angry."
Lin Zi said while holding back a smile.
"Little daughter-in-law? What is a little daughter-in-law? β
Jack scratched his head, the word was clearly out of his vocabulary.
"The little daughter-in-law is just like you now, living in someone else's house, and the person who is bullied by others is called the little daughter-in-law."
Lin Zi smiled and explained to Jack.
This Jack is really simple-minded, and he really believed what Lin Zi said.
"Okay, seriously, did you come to me to vent your bitterness with me?"
"Of course not, I'm going to move out of Xu Chenrui's house! Lin, when are you free to accompany me to see the house, I'm afraid that those people will trick me. β
Lin Zi remembered that there had been a lot of things in his company these days, and it was estimated that he didn't have much time to accompany him, but if he didn't come down now, it was estimated that he would come to annoy himself every day.
So, I had to come down casually, and when I was free, I went to see the house with him.
However, it is estimated that he will be well polished by Xu Chenrui in the past few days.
However, that's fine.
He always bothered himself.
Originally, Lin Zi planned to rely on Jack to help him, but he didn't expect that this Jack's connections were not good, and it seemed that he had to find another way.
She now began to regret taking Jack back home.
After sending Jack away, Lin Zi shook his head and smiled lightly and got to work.
Although the old accounts of the Lilin family had been sorted out yesterday, the loopholes in the financial deficit were too big, and she had to reorganize them.
She slid the mouse, staring at the dense numbers on the screen, and couldn't help but rub her temples.
All morning, she was busy, and she didn't even know until noon.
"Still busy?"
A familiar voice came, and Lin Zi was stunned and raised his head.
"Xu Chenrui?"
He stood in front of the desk, dressed in light color, fair skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and gentle eyes, like a son who was as warm as jade.
"I've been waiting for you down there for a long time and you haven't come down, so I'll come up."
He put one hand in his pocket, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and his smile was like a spring breeze.
Lin Zi curled his lips, "It seems that I have to change the people at the front desk downstairs, why did I put one or two of them in?" β
This is just to say it casually, with the appearance of Xu Chenrui and Jack, the little girl at the front desk is bound to be unable to resist.
"One or two? Who else? β
"Jack, who else could it be?"
"Oh, I see, he must have come to complain to you, boy."
"I said you shouldn't be so strict with him, he wants me to help him find a house and move out."
"Did you say yes?"
"I've been too busy lately, where can I be free?"
"This kid has been pampered since he was a child, and it's time to grind it well. Not to mention him, have you been busy until now? β
Lin Zi raised his head and glanced at the time, only to realize that it was already noon.
"Well, I just took over the company, and there are a lot of things."
"Take it, I've booked the restaurant."
Lin Zi thought about it and didn't refuse, so he followed Xu Chenrui down.
Xu Chenrui is a Japanese restaurant with an elegant and comfortable environment, which is very suitable for taking a break after a busy day.
He handed the menu to Lin Zi, "The salmon here is freshly shipped, it's fresh, you can try it." β
"Hmm."
Lin Zi ordered a salmon and some other dishes, and handed the menu back to Xu Chenrui.
Xu Chenrui and Lin Zi have been together for so many years, he knows Lin Zi's taste, so he ordered two more servings, both of which Lin Zi likes.
After the waiter left, Xu Chenrui looked at Lin Zi, his eyes were tender and sweet, and after Lin Zi accidentally caught a glimpse, his cheeks were a little crimson.
Over the years, Xu Chenrui has always known her own thoughts, but now she no longer believes in love.
She was scared.
"Haven't you been busy lately?"
Lin Zi poured down the tea and took a sip, "Well, the company...... There are more things. β
"If you need my help, just tell me, I ......"
"Don't worry, I can handle it, I'm not the same kid I used to be."
Lin Zi's face was a soft smile, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his face was beautiful.
She painted light makeup, not showy, very natural, comfortable, a pair of eyes are especially beautiful, and they seem to be dyed with spring water, which makes people love.
Xu Chenrui looked at Lin Zi's somewhat emaciated face, and felt very distressed.
He would rather she still be the little friend he was arguing with, than like she was now.
"You have to pay attention to your body, you have to eat three meals a day on time, when you are in the United States, you are like this, you don't care about it when you are busy."
Lin Zi smiled, but he also knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he said with a smile: "Isn't it better to eat when you're hungry?" β
Xu Chenrui shook his head, "If you want to do this again, I will come to count your meals every day in the future." β
Lin Zi stuck out his tongue at Xu Chenrui and did not speak.
Naturally, she knew he cared.
The two chatted, and the meal was served.
Halfway through the meal, Xu Chenrui's phone rang.
He took the phone and looked at it, and helplessness appeared in his eyes.
"I'll answer the phone."
Lin Zi nodded.
Xu Chenrui got up and went out, "Dad." β
"Chen Rui, when will you return to the country?"
"Yesterday."
"You have time to go home, I made an appointment with Qin Dong, you meet his daughter, you know how powerful the Qin family is, if we marry them, our family's stock will definitely rise."
"Dad, I still have something to do here, hang up first."
After Xu Chenrui hung up the phone, he couldn't help but clench his fists with his hands.
In the past few years, since the decline of the Lin family, his father has been forcing himself to go on a blind date with the daughters of other groups, Xu Shenzhi is not in business, and he went abroad to study music in his junior year.
Therefore, the stock of Xu's company is linked to his marriage.
He knew he couldn't escape, it was his life.
Still, he wanted to gamble.
He didn't believe that God would be so desperate to take away the only thing he cherished now.
Xu Chenrui hung up the phone and went back to the box.
Lin Zi heard the voice and looked at him, "Back?" β
"Hmm."
"Look at your expression just now, is there something wrong? If anything, it's okay for you to go first. β
After going for so long, Lin Zi estimated that something was wrong.
The corners of Xu Chenrui's mouth rose slightly, and he shook his head, "It's nothing." β
"Ah, then, I thought you had something."
Lin Zi said with a smile, his smile soft.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
Xu Chenrui walked out of the box with Lin Zi.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
"Lin Zi?"
Lin Zi slowly turned around, and Shi Mu stood not far behind her with Yi Zhen in his arms.
The two seemed to have just finished eating, and Yi Zhen was holding a blazer in his hand.
Shi Mu was originally born good-looking, but he hadn't seen her for five years, and the little girl back then had become a lot more mature.
The long seaweed-like hair was scattered behind her head, she wiped her red lips, her slender hand held Yi Zhen tightly, and the diamond ring on the middle finger of her left hand looked particularly shining in the light, Lin Zi felt a little dazzling.
Yi Zhen next to him was the same as the one he saw yesterday, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and alienated, he was wearing a pair of gold-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his eyes were covered with a layer of cold color.
Lin Zi suddenly felt that her legs were a little weak, and she couldn't help but take two steps back, but fortunately, Xu Chenrui grabbed Lin Zi, otherwise, she would definitely fall.
Lin Zi turned his head and glanced at Xu Chenrui with grateful eyes.
Xu Chenrui grabbed Lin Zi's hand tightly.
"It's really you, you're back."
"yes."
"We still have something to do, so let's go first."
Shi Mu nodded at Lin Zi, and then left from Lin Zi with Yi Zhen in his arms. 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.
