After dinner, the three of them chatted and took the elevator to the parking lot, where they said goodbye and headed to their respective parking spaces.

Not long after, Lin Yao's car drove out of the underground parking lot and into the brightly lit night.

Coming out of the parking lot is a big traffic light intersection.

While waiting for the green light, Lin Yao's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the huge LED screen next to the square and above the bank.

On the edge of the square, two-thirds of the way up the building, a huge LED screen has been installed, and a real estate advertisement is now being placed.

"Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times, with 100,000 families ......"

The picture shows the bank of the Qiantang River at night, the dazzling lights and the sparkling river surface are intertwined, and the staggered real estate stands near the river, which looks very attractive.

For some reason, Lin Yao thought of Li Renhai's land and the fact that he was about to own several buildings by the Qiantang River.

Lin Yao suddenly had a premonition in her heart that no matter how hard she worked and how hard she racked her brains to develop her career, she might not be able to catch up with Li Renhai's speed of making a fortune.

The green light turned on, Lin Yao started the car and followed the traffic slowly.

When I got home, it was dark at night.

Lin Yao changed into a warm tow and was about to go upstairs to deal with the unfinished work, when she received a call from Qin Rongze.

A nice male voice came over on the other end of the phone, "Yaoyao." ”

And then there was none.

Lin Yao chuckled helplessly and continued to climb the stairs.

Lin Yao is quite active in front of people, for example, Mr. Wen often calls her "pistachio" and "ghost", ......and Hossein also likes to call her "Chocolate girl", she has something to say to everyone.

There are occasional exceptions, such as this time, and Qin Rongze.

Qin Rongze was in the imperial capital, and he couldn't come back for a while, and he couldn't take care of himself. Whether it is work, study or life, he can't be counted on, and Lin Yao doesn't count on him either.

If it was said that Lin Yao would help him, it would be even more impossible.

The glorious Orlando of the past is in the midst of internal and external troubles, and the cooperation with several big customers has been smashed, and the remaining customers have also been divided between the ministers who started a business in a single flight.

Although Orlando has not collapsed yet, the outside world generally believes that Orlando is only an empty shell, and Qin Rongze has no skills to recover.

After this time, Orlando could fall into a long downturn, which should be the biggest disaster in Orlando's history.

Lin Yao can't help Qin Rongze, and Qin Rongze can't count on her to help.

So, Lin Yao found that she didn't know what to say to him.

I can only secretly sigh in my heart that others will talk about nothing when they fall in love, but they talk about the point where they have nothing to say.

"Your grandfather, are you alright?" She hesitated for a moment, then softened her voice and asked more gently, "Well, are you okay there?" ”

Although Lin Yao tried his best to hide it, Qin Rongze could still hear the worry and concern from it.

He looked up at the ceiling.

"He's fine." His voice was particularly low in the night, "But I have something, I, I miss you very much." ”

This was originally a sweet word between lovers, but Lin Yao was inexplicably a little sour in his ears, "I ...... Well. ”

Qin Rongze said apologetically: "I rarely stay with you, will you be disappointed in me?" ”

Saying that he was not disappointed, it must be fake, Lin Yao quickly adjusted his emotions, and asked in a relaxed tone: "I'm not a child, why do I need you to accompany me every day?" ”

"You're certainly not a child." Qin Rongze's voice was bitter, "I mean, I want to be by your side every day." ”

When he says "think", he means that it is impossible to be around, but only to think.

He would say this, which means that Old Man Qin's attitude is as tough as ever.

Qin Rongze may really be willing to leave the family business of the Qin family in the imperial capital for her, but he was raised by Old Man Qin, can he leave Old Man Qin behind?

He can't and won't do it.

So they can only wait, until Old Man Qin relaxes, or ......

Lin Yao gasped, if Old Man Qin didn't let go until he died, then they wouldn't have any results.

"Hmm."

Other than that, she had nothing to say.

Qin Rongze was silent for a moment and continued: "You give me a little more time, a few months at most, and everything will be settled." ”

Lin Yao suddenly smiled and said jokingly, "You know what? My friend said that you may be married and have another family, so you will disappear for a long time like now, and you can only contact me secretly. ”

"Nope!" Qin Rongze categorically denied it, "I don't have another family!" ”

"I know." Lin Yao sighed softly in her heart, "It's just that if it's really so difficult to be together, why don't we think about it separately?" I mean, why don't you calm down and wait until you're dealing with all kinds of troubles, and then talk about the future? ”

On the other end of the phone, Qin Rongze didn't speak for a long time. until a faint cough was heard in the distance.

Qin Rongze said hurriedly: "I still have something, I'll call you later." ”

With that, he hung up the phone in a hurry.

Lin Yao pulled the corners of her lips and smiled mockingly.

In a flash, it has been a few months since Qin Rongze returned to the imperial capital, and he would occasionally make a phone call, but only a few simple greetings, and then hang up the phone in a hurry, just like now.

However, he knew Lin Yao's whereabouts as he knew as a matter of course, so naturally there was no need to ask too many detailed questions.

As for Lin Yao, Qin Rongze is in the imperial capital, he can't go back to Hangzhou, and it is unknown when he will return to Hangzhou.

Lin Yao admitted that she occasionally missed Qin Rongze and hoped that he would come back soon, but she still had many more important things to do.

They have their own lives, their own pursuits, and no one will be attached to anyone, and no one will be inseparable from anyone.

For her, she and Qin Rongze are together to live a better life, and if it becomes a burden, then she will decisively withdraw from his world.

At the end of the day, she's just waiting for a result.

Whatever the outcome, she felt she could accept it.

***

When Old Man Qin opened his eyes leisurely, Qin Rongze was whispering on the phone by the window, "...... Will you be disappointed in me...... I want you to be by my side every day......"

His tone when he spoke was very gentle, so gentle that Old Man Qin felt incredible.

Old Man Qin didn't interrupt them silently, but listened quietly.

Listening to it, his thoughts drifted away.

Everyone has a young age, and so is Old Man Qin.

He and his wife got married very early, and they have always been male and female, and their relationship is quite good.

They also had a happy time when their children were around their knees and everyone envied them, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, the eldest daughter and the eldest son sacrificed for the country one after another, and Mrs. Qin sent the white-haired people to the black-haired people twice in a row, she couldn't bear such a blow, lingering on the sickbed, and it was soon gone.

The originally lively Qin family was left with only Old Man Qin and Qin Zhenchuan.

Qin Zhenchuan is a young man, he has a stubborn nature, and Old Man Qin has never placed any hope on him.

I thought that the Qin family didn't need him to support the door, let alone expect him to shine on the lintel.

After a series of accidents, Qin Zhenchuan became the last hope of Old Man Qin.

He was too out of tune, and the old man Qin was in charge and married him a strong, shrewd and capable wife, Liu Xinning.

As Old Man Qin expected, after Liu Xinning entered the door, he quickly cleaned up Qin Zhenchuan.

Old Man Qin was originally happy to see it, but since Qin Zhenchuan had no brains and no skills, he should let his daughter-in-law take care of him.

No one could have imagined that Liu Xinning was capable and capable, but she was infertile, and she couldn't find out the reason for visiting famous doctors.

Old Man Qin thinks that he is still very open-minded, but there has been no addition to the family, and he is old, so he can't help but worry about it.

Until he learned that Qin Zhenchuan's girlfriend gave birth to a child before marriage!

Old Man Qin was overjoyed, and despite Liu Xinning's opposition, he took Qin Rongze back to the imperial capital from the countryside and raised him personally.

For Old Man Qin, this child is the hope of the Qin family, but for Liu Xinning, this child is a thorn in the flesh!

From the time Qin Rongze entered the Qin family, Liu Xinning did not explicitly oppose it on the surface, but secretly kept making small moves, so that the Qin family was not as good as a year after year.

Old Man Qin never thought that the daughter-in-law he had worked so hard to marry for his son, Liu Xinning not only helped the Qin family revitalize the family business, but also used all his wisdom to hollow out the Qin family's family foundation!

What made Old Man Qin even more heartbroken was that his pampered son watched all this happen, not to mention it, and was stupid enough to help.

The Qin family has become a joke again!

At that time, the Qin family was weak, and the Liu family was in full swing, and the old man Qin turned a blind eye to this in order to calm things down.

Fortunately, Qin Rongze is more competitive, although his personality is a little dull, he is very good at learning, and he is also a good hand at doing business, and he has run a small clothing company with a good reputation and is world-famous.

Old Man Qin felt quite comforted by the old man, in the circle of the imperial capital, he could finally look up and see people again.

Gradually, the situation began to change.

Qin Zhenchuan and his wife took the initiative to show goodwill to Qin Rongze, and planned to recruit a good family for him, and the old man Qin raised his hands in favor of this.

But Qin Rongze disagreed, he had to be with that small family's girlfriend, and later made so many moths.

Not to mention the turmoil in the house, Orlando, which Qin Rongze has worked hard for more than ten years, also collapsed and almost went out of business.

Old Man Qin decided that no matter what, he would let Qin Rongze truly return to the Qin family, at all costs!

But when he heard his grandson, who had always been dull to the point of almost woodenness, talking softly with the girl surnamed Lin, the old man suddenly relented again.

In the final analysis, Qin Rongze just wants to be with the girl he likes, is this also wrong?

Qin Zhenchuan abandoned his mother, he will never forgive him in his life, do you want him to abandon his girlfriend too?

After all, he was still ashamed of this grandson.

Before Qin Rongze finished making the call, Old Man Qin had already quietly wet his cheeks with tears.

Qin Rongze is not Qin Zhenchuan, if he forcibly separates them, what will be the result?

Old Man Qin didn't dare to think about it.

At this moment, he heard Qin Rongze say, "No! I don't have another family! ”

Master Qin was annoyed again!

What does this kid mean?

Could it be that he never regarded the Qin family as his own?

If you really let them be together, I'm afraid they will never return to the imperial capital, right?

How can this work?

"Ahem!" Old Man Qin changed his mind again, and he cleared his throat, "Rong Ze." ”

Qin Rongze looked back when he heard this, "Grandpa." ”

Old Man Qin tried to squeeze out a smile on his wrinkled face, "You really like her, don't you?" ”

Qin Rongze couldn't guess his thoughts, but he still admitted frankly, "Yes." ”

Old Man Qin smiled, "What about her?" ”

Qin Rongze raised his eyes and looked at Old Man Qin suspiciously.

Old Man Qin sank his face, and his already cloudy eyes looked at him fixedly, "It's not impossible for me to accept that girl, but I have one condition." ”

When Old Man Qin said his conditions, the already faint smile on Qin Rongze's face froze in an instant.

***

Lin Yao was ignorant of what was happening in the imperial capital, she had just finished checking her mailbox and was about to read a book for a while before going to sleep, when she received a call from Qin Rongze again.

She didn't know what about other people's boyfriends, but for Qin Rongze, it was rare for him to make two calls in one day.

The corners of her lips subconsciously raised, and her voice unconsciously became soft, "Hey? ”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a full three seconds, and just when Lin Yao thought that Qin Rongze had just accidentally dialed her number, he spoke.

"I have seriously considered the proposal you said, and we need to ...... Calm down. ”

"What did you say?" Lin Yao didn't react for a while, and said puzzledly: "We still need ......"

What Lin Yao originally wanted to say was that we already gather less and leave more, do we still need to calm down?

Halfway through her words, she suddenly remembered what she had said to Qin Rongze before.

"If it's really that hard to be together, why don't we think about it otherwise? Why don't you calm down for a while, wait until you have dealt with all kinds of troubles, and then talk about the future? ……”

Lin Yao would say this, mainly a small complaint.

She hoped that Qin Rongze would say, we have been separated for too long and have been calm for too long, and I will be back soon...... Etcetera.

Now, Qin Rongze also said that she needs to calm down, how should she understand it?

Could it be that he is tired, tired, and ready to break up?

The words had reached his lips, but Lin Yao still didn't ask.

She doesn't like to keep windows and doors closed, even in winter she will open a crack to allow the air to circulate in the house, and she has always enjoyed the occasional breeze.

Tonight is different, the cool breeze in the night, like a sense of loneliness, gradually infects the body, and the chill is to the bones.

Lin Yao looked up at the full moon outside the window, her fingers holding the phone trembled slightly, but her tone was still flat, "Okay." ”

She hung up the phone with a smile, just smiled and smiled, and something cold seemed to slip down the corner of her eye.

Lin Yao thought that she was independent enough, she thought that she had long regarded emotional matters very lightly, thinking that she could accept any result!

But she still overestimated herself after all......
