Chapter 25: "Reacquaint"

After the song, the audience applauded thunderously, some for the graceful music, and some for the beautiful beauty.

Lin Zi walked to the middle of the stage, bent down sideways to lift the hem of his skirt, and bowed his head slightly to thank the audience for their kindness.

"Xiao Zi, today is awesome, it's really my baby girl." Father Lin praised Lin Zi vigorously, and at this moment, because of his daughter's wonderful performance, Father Lin's face was full of pride and pride.

Father Lin took Lin Zi's distinguished guests to toast one by one, in addition to the necessary business courtesy, of course, the main thing was to introduce his excellent daughter, every time he looked at the praise and envy of the other party, Father Lin would always have a smile on his face, and his joy was overflowing.

"Lin Dong, long time no see."

When Father Lin heard someone calling him, he turned his head and found that it was his rival and partner in the business field, Xu Jinheng, the founder of the Xu Group. Father Lin stepped forward, "It turned out to be Dong Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I came to the little girl's birthday banquet to make our banquet hall shine." ”

"Haha, Lin Dong is so polite."

"Come, Xiao Zi," Father Lin beckoned to Lin Zi, "I've seen your Uncle Xu, when I was a child, your Uncle Xu even hugged you." ”

Lin Zi stepped forward, "Hello Uncle Xu," he smiled at Xu Jinheng.

Xu Jinheng looked Lin Zi up and down, and nodded appreciatively, "Lin Zi, right, I remember that you were so tall when you laughed, and now you are a big girl, as your father said, you are slim and generous." The performance on stage just now was very exciting, quite a bit of your mother's demeanor. ”

"Uncle Xu has won the award, and I am still far behind my mother." Lin Zi lowered his head a little shyly.

"Xiao Zi, don't mind if your uncle calls you that."

"Don't mind, don't mind, of course don't mind, you're an elder, it's okay to call me anything."

"Xiaozi, today is your birthday, uncle, I wish you a happy birthday first, you are getting more and more beautiful. I don't know what you like, so I picked a random gift, I hope you don't dislike it. Xu Jinheng said, took out a small gift box from his pocket, and handed it to Lin Zi.

Lin Zi was a little embarrassed and didn't know whether to accept it, turned his head to look at his father, and Father Lin nodded at himself, so Lin Zi thanked Xu Jinheng and accepted the gift.

"Lin Dong, you are really blessed, you can have such a well-behaved and excellent daughter."

"Where is it, Xu Dong is really modest, you are also very good, two sons and one daughter, both children and daughters, I am also very envious. I heard that Ling Qianjin is also Bingxue smart, bright and moving, it seems that she is still studying in a well-known foreign music academy, and her future is limitless. ”

"The one in my family, she knows that she will cause trouble for me all the time, if she is as sensible and well-behaved as Xiaozi, I will wake up laughing in my sleep."

"Xiao Zi sometimes causes trouble for me, hahaha, child, it's all like this."

"Lao Lin, I really like Xiaozi, you said, if our two families can get married in the future, it will really fulfill my dream, and it will be a beautiful conversation." Xu Jinheng changed his words.

Jiang is still old and spicy, as soon as Father Lin heard it, he understood what Xu Jinheng meant, it was nothing more than wanting to marry in business to seek more benefits, but although Father Lin was a businessman, he never wanted his daughter to be a victim of the essay mall, so he had to avoid the point, "Hahaha, Xu Dong said and laughed, the little girl is still young, and I still want her to stay by my side for a few more years." However, I heard that the eldest son is also young and promising, and he is a talent. ”

"Lin Dong said with a smile," Xu Jinheng turned around and patted the man with his back to him, "Introduction, this is a dog, Xu Chenrui." Chen Rui, say hello to Uncle Lin. ”

The moment the man turned around, Lin Zi's pupils instantly dilated.

Xu Chenrui? Why is this nasty ghost again, and why is he haunted? Why is it still Uncle Xu's son? What a small probability this is! Lin Zi felt that he should rush out and buy a lottery ticket immediately.

"Hello Uncle Lin," Xu Chenrui greeted Father Lin politely, forming a strong contrast with Xu Chenrui, who had been talking to Lin Zi's hippie smile all day long.

Father Lin looked at Xu Chenrui's polite and gentle appearance, and admired it very much, "Sure enough, as rumored, his appearance is dignified and his aura is extraordinary." ”

"Xiaozi, why are you stunned, why don't you say hello to Xu Gongzi?" Father Lin turned his head to look at Lin Zi with a dull expression and said.

"Xu, Xu, Mr. Xu is good." Lin Zi was surprised and spoke a little stumblingly.

"Hello Miss Lin, we met again, we won't get lost again today." Xu Chenrui smiled and raised his eyebrows at Lin Zi.

Lin Zi looked at Xu Chenrui's smug appearance, a little angry, she said that when they meet again, she is going to fight back.

"You've known each other before?" Father Lin looked at the two of them like this, a little confused.

"We are ......" Xu Chenrui just wanted to say that we were friends, but was interrupted by Lin Zi.

"There have been several encounters," Lin Zi paused, "However, the famous Xu Chenrui, Xu Daxing, who doesn't know, who doesn't know, I often see a few traces in newspapers and news" After speaking, he smiled at Xu Chenrui.

Everyone knows that Xu Chenrui's frequent newspaper news is not good news, most of them are some lace news about Xu Chenrui's emotions. And Xu Jinheng has always paid the most attention to face, and has always held an opposition attitude towards Xu Chenrui's entry into the showbiz, thinking that he is losing the face of the Xu family, so when he heard Lin Zi say this, the smile on his face suddenly couldn't hold back.

Father Lin didn't expect Lin Zi to say this suddenly, and seeing the scene, he was a little embarrassed, so he took Xu Jinheng to the side and discussed business.

Xu Chenrui and Lin Zi were left looking at each other in place.

"Kid, do you want to be recruited so quickly?" Xu Chenrui looked at Lin Zi with a smile, he really didn't expect that the children who were led by his nose in the past would not be able to let himself get off the stage today.

Lin Zi saw that Xu Chenrui was a little deflated, he was very proud, looked at Xu Chenrui with a high face, and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't make you proud this time, but someone like you who owes money will be punished a little." ”

"Little friend, it's not cute at all, besides," Xu Chenrui suddenly leaned down and approached Lin Zi's ear, "I'm still your benefactor, do you treat your benefactor like this?" ”

"You...... Forget it, for the sake of today, this girl is in a good mood and is too lazy to bother with you. Seeing that there were so many people around, Lin Zi couldn't get angry in public, let alone beat him, so he had to give up.

"Okay, kid, let's get to know you again, a talented actor Xu Chenrui." The corners of Xu Chenrui's mouth rose, and he slowly stretched out his hand to Lin Zi.

"Zhiyong Shuangquan Bingxue is smart and gentle and lovely, but at this moment, because the other party is scum, she can't be angry and chooses to tolerate the beautiful girl Lin Zi," Lin Zi was not to be outdone, and responded to the other party's request to shake hands.

Xu Chenrui looked at the child in front of him who didn't give an inch, and couldn't laugh or cry, it seems that the child has grown up and is a little interesting.

"Xiao Zi, come here," Lin Mu beckoned to Lin Zi.

"I'm sorry, I'm out of company." Lin Zi took advantage of this to leave Xu Chenrui's side immediately, but she didn't want to stay longer for a second.

"Come, Xiaozi, this is Mrs. Wang, you have seen it before, this is her son, Wang Xiaoshuai......"

Mother Lin took Lin Zi to start a new round of blind date mode, which made Lin Zi suddenly cry bitter and embarrassed to refuse, so she had to greet each other with a smile and toast one by one.

Standing on the side, Xu Chenrui, who was a little bored, looked at the back of Lin Zi toasting everywhere, with some sympathy in his heart, and some indescribable sourness. He remembered the scene when he was forced by his father to come to this birthday party during the day.

……

"Chen Rui, let you come back this time, just let you go with me to the birthday banquet organized by the Lin Group, no matter what, you have to go!" Xu Jinheng angrily threw down a sentence and slammed the door.

Of course, Xu Chenrui knew that the reason why his father insisted on letting him go was nothing more than to catch up with the Lin family's daughter so that his career could develop, he was just a pawn for him, and his marriage was just a transaction for Xu Jinheng.

Although Xu Chenrui has always known this, this is his fate, his destined fate, he once thought about escaping and resisting, but after trying, he can only choose to accept it and accept it willingly.

Xu Chenrui, who was standing by the window, suddenly had a picture of a girl in his mind, this girl, a small one, a little noisy, easy to be shy, very fond of eating, all emotions are written on her face, laugh when you laugh, cry loudly when you cry, you will get lost, you will be afraid of ghosts. Xu Chenrui was a little absorbed in his thoughts, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He is very envious of this girl, heartless, crying and laughing recklessly, and he, for so many years, has been playing the role of a playboy and a gentleman defined by the outside world, always with an emotionless "poker face", and he doesn't know how long he hasn't really laughed happily and cried sadly.

However, it seems that the only time I laughed out loud in recent days was in front of that child.

Xu Chenrui put on a suit, put on a tie, cleaned up his mood, and walked downstairs.

"Dad, I'm ready, let's go."

When he arrived at the venue, Xu Chenrui found out that this birthday party was Lin Zi's birthday party, and Lin Zi was the daughter of the Lin Group. Suddenly, for a moment, Xu Chenrui felt that God didn't seem to have been torturing him, maybe he had enough jokes and wanted to be kind to himself.

Xu Chenrui stood under the stage, watching Lin Zi appear, playing the piano, and suddenly felt that this girl was a little different from what he had seen before, becoming more calm, calmer, and more elegant. He stood in place, looking at the beautiful woman on the stage, for a long, long time, and never left his sight.
