Chapter 152: Wait for Me to Come Back
The night breeze was cold, but Lin Yao was unaware of it, and was still standing at the bottom of Building 2 in a daze.
"Hey~? Feed! On the other end of the phone, Jiang Mingshu's voice kept coming, "Lin Yao, are you listening to me?" β
Lin Yao said as if she had just woken up from a dream: "I'm listening, you continue." β
"Go on with what?" Jiang Mingshu was angry, "I was asking you something, and you let me continue to ask myself?" β
"No, I'm here, uh......" Lin Yao made an excuse randomly, "It was noisy just now, I didn't hear it clearly." β
In fact, there is not a single figure here except her.
Jiang Mingshu didn't care about these details, she said it again, "I just said, we haven't been out to play for a long time, how about going out to play today?" β
Jiang Mingshu's so-called going out to play is generally to go to the bar.
Lin Yao refused without thinking about it, "It's not good." β
Jiang Mingshu jumped to her feet in anger, "Oh, you are a person!" It's so boring, you're going to have no friends like that! I'm telling you! β
Jiang Mingshu's words were just casually talking, but Lin Yao thought of her getting along with Qin Rongze.
In fact, there is not much intersection between them, and they get along even rarer, so little that they can be ignored.
For a while, she felt a lot, "Yes, I've been quite boring, then I'll hang up the phone." β
Hearing that she was going to hang up the phone, Jiang Mingshu was anxious again, and said repeatedly: "Wait! You wait! You haven't even told me what job you've been promoted and how much you've been raised! β
Jiang Mingshu is not usually a gossip, but she is so obsessed with this issue this time.
Avoiding is unavoidable.
Lin Yao hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly: "Office director." β
"What? Chief of staff? I'm hahaha......" Jiang Mingshu couldn't straighten up with a smile on the other end of the phone, "This is the funniest joke I've heard this year, ahhahahahaha......ha
Lin Yao was still saying just now that in order to do a better job in foreign trade, she went to sign up for a Spanish class and asked herself if she wanted to be together, but her boss asked her to be the office director.
It's so funny!
Jiang Mingshu laughed for a while before stopping, and she asked, "I said, do you know what the office director does?" β
Lin Yao replied randomly, "I don't know, I hung up the phone." β
Then she hung up cleanly.
Listening to the "beep" sound on the other end of the phone, Jiang Mingshu was a little inexplicable, she put the phone in front of her in confusion, looked at the interface showing that the other party had hung up, and she decisively pressed the redial button.
What she didn't expect was that Lin Yao turned off her phone!
Is this angry?
No way?
******
Of course, Lin Yao wouldn't be angry because of this, but she was in a mess and couldn't communicate with Jiang Mingshu, so she simply turned off her mobile phone after hanging up the phone.
All she was thinking about in her mind was, what was Qin Rongze going to the United States to do?
Will he make a complete break with Adriana, or will he be ready to give Adriana, who has admired him for many years, a happy ending?
Although she hoped for the former, reason told her that the truth might be closer to the latter.
The outside world is generally optimistic about the marriage between Orlando Group and Iris Consortium, and even she has to admit that Adriana and Qin Rongze are very compatible in all aspects.
Besides, she and Qin Rongze only have a good impression of each other, and they are not so in love that they are alive and dead, nor to the point where they are not married to a king, and they are not married.
What's more, Qin Rongze is not only her sweetheart, but also her benefactor.
If Qin Rongze is regarded as his sweetheart, Lin Yao certainly hopes that he will always have a deep affection for him.
If Qin Rongze is regarded as a benefactor, it will be different. When the benefactor has a more ideal partner, shouldn't she sincerely wish them happiness instead of blindly holding unrealistic illusions?
Lin Yao never felt that he was anyone's vassal, even if the other party was Qin Rongze.
In that case, why not just let it go?
In fact, even if she refuses to let go, what can she do?
The more Lin Yao thought about it, the more sad she felt in her heart.
A gust of night wind blew, shivering from the cold, and she unconsciously shrunk her shoulders.
Just as she shrunk her shoulders, a coat seemed to fall from the sky, shielding her from the cold wind. The familiar temperature and long-lost sense of security instantly wrapped her.
She looked back at the end of the day and met a pair of deep eyes.
Qin Rongze was only wearing a light-colored shirt and black trousers at this time, his figure was tall and slender, and his posture was straight, as if he was one with the night.
Because of the height disparity, he had to lower his head slightly, his side face was shadowed by the dim light, his facial features became more and more deep, and his complexion became fairer against the background of the shadows.
Because of her proximity, she could clearly see his well-defined eyebrows, high, straight nose, and slightly raised lips.
Hey? He's laughing?
Qin Rongze has always been unsmiling, giving people a old-fashioned and serious feeling, but in Lin Yao's eyes, his smile was extremely warm, and looking at the faint smile in his eyes, he couldn't take his eyes off it for a while.
Lin Yao was stunned for a while before coming back to her senses, "Why are you here?" Didn't you go to the United States with, uh, the United States? β
She didn't know if Qin Rongze knew that Liang Kaiwen was pursuing Jiang Mingshu, so she subconsciously avoided it and didn't mention it.
Qin Rongze didn't ask, and replied simply: "Yes, as we all know, I have already gone to the United States, but I can't rest assured, so look at you." β
When she was thinking about someone, that person happened to appear in front of her and told her that that person was thinking about her just as much, and this feeling was too good and a little unreal.
Lin Yao smiled at the corner of her mouth and asked, "Then you are relieved to see me now?" β
Qin Rongze said, "No, as soon as I saw you, I regretted it." β
Lin Yao was surprised, "Why?" β
"Because ......" Qin Rongze lowered his eyes and looked at the well-behaved little woman who was looking up at him, his eyes gradually softened, and said, "Because I saw you, I didn't want to leave." β
The smile on Lin Yao's face froze, as if he was thinking about the authenticity of his words.
Seeing this, the smile in Qin Rongze's eyes gradually deepened.
"You're not kidding." Lin Yao frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Although I don't know what you went to the United States for, but the business is important." β
Qin Rongze raised his eyebrows, "Okay." His voice was on the low side, and it was particularly charming to hide in the night.
Lin Yao's heart moved, and she raised her head again.
Qin Rongze's expression was serious and serious, his eyes were as deep as water, he opened his lips slightly, and his tone was solemn, "Lin Yao, I have something to tell you." β
Lin Yao raised his eyes to look at him who was slightly thin, and said with a smile: "Why don't you go and tell you?" β
Qin Rongze smiled.
******
This is the second time Lin Yao has come to Room 403 of Building 2.
The first thing she noticed was that the doors had been replaced, and the old wooden doors had been replaced with heavy security doors.
Room 403 was not much different in size and structure from the one she lived in, but it now seemed very different.
The reason is that the decoration style here has changed drastically compared to before.
The tattered wainscoting has been removed, and the floor tiles have been replaced with new ones, which looks much fresher.
The kitchen is open-plan, making the living room less cramped.
The dΓ©cor in the room is the same as the outside, with clean and tidy light wooden floors, and the furnishings in the room are simple.
A large bed with a knee-high cabinet at the head of the bed, on which is a set of pure white tea sets.
Simple, transparent, calm, and peaceful, just like the feeling he brought to her.
Lin Yao took a casual visit and sighed: "I didn't expect you to really decorate this place." β
What she didn't expect the most was that Qin Rongze seemed to have really lived here.
And he did it for only one reason and purpose: she.
Qin Rongze heard the surprise in her tone, and then thought of the reason why people were in a hurry to renovate this house years ago, he couldn't help but be surprised, "At that time, I thought that since I told you that I lived in Chaoyang Community, I would move over quickly." I didn't expect that something would happen later, I'm sorry! β
The engagement announcement jointly released by Adriana and Qin Zhenchuan caught Qin Rongze off guard.
's originally upright girlfriend suddenly became an unsightly "third party".
Lin Yao fell in love for the first time and was intervened by a third party, and the second time she fell in love, she inexplicably became someone's "third party", if she didn't mind at all, it must be fake.
She doesn't mind or not, and the important thing is that this matter hasn't been resolved yet!
After she calmed down, she asked, "So what are you going to do next?" Do you need me to do something for you? β
"You don't have to do anything, just wait for my news." Qin Rongze thought for a moment and added: "Adriana's family background is a bit complicated, I don't want to involve you at this time, so I won't contact you in the next period of time, you, will you blame me?" β
"Why do I blame you?"
Lin Yao also decided to open up to him, "However, Zhuangzi said that it is better to forget about each other than in the rivers and lakes, if, I mean if, they are not easy to deal with, it doesn't matter what happens to me here......"
Her voice paused, and then she smiled, her laughter was like a knife, piercing Qin Rongze's heart.
"So, while I'm fighting for our future, you're ready to let go?" β
This does sound very unrighteous, Lin Yao weakly defended: "I just don't want you to ...... because of me"
Her original intention was really just that she didn't want to embarrass Qin Rongze, but when these words came to her mouth, she couldn't say it.
If Qin Rongze lets go, Lin Yao will not lose herself because of this, and she will still face her life positively and optimistically.
But is she willing?
Qin Rongze is her boyfriend, just because others have taken a fancy to her, she should quit and let go?
Or is she only worthy of dating a man who others look down on?
No!
Qin Rongze lowered his eyes and looked at her, and said lightly: "Do you think that if you let go, all the troubles will not exist?" β
"It's not!" Lin Yao hurriedly remedied, "Don't be angry, I know it's wrong!" β
"No, you don't know!" His voice was serious, "Do you know how the Iris family started?" What kind of influence do they have in South America? What happens if I can't get involved with them? β
Qin Rongze just didn't want to offend them all along, but he didn't want to have more entanglements with them, otherwise why would the cooperation between Orlando and the Iris Consortium be just a small fight after so many years?
Lin Yao was stunned, "You mean, there's something wrong with their background?" β
"There may be people who envy their strong background, or admire their fighting spirit that will not stop until they achieve their goals, but I have never been one of them."
Qin Rongze turned around and looked out the window, tilted his head, looked at the dark night sky, and said in a low voice: "And people with some illegal backgrounds will definitely eliminate all evidence against themselves at any cost." If they could be casually inquired about, they wouldn't be able to get along for a long time. β
As for what kind of background it was, even if Qin Rongze didn't say much, Lin Yao could guess a thing or two.
Qin Rongze is just a self-made businessman, he may have a certain identity and status in China, but he cannot be compared with the old consortium of the United States.
If it is a consortium with an illegal background, it will be even more difficult to deal with.
Qin Rongze turned his head and looked at her with lowered eyes, "I told you everything I could tell you." You remember, no matter what others say, you don't believe it, you just remember that you are with me. β
He pointed to his heart.
"Also, I'll protect you." His voice was extremely low, "Although I really don't want to go, there is still a tough battle to be fought next, and I have to go." Wait for me to come back! β
He said wait for him to come back!
Lin Yao's heart moved, and a wonderful feeling spread in her heart.
She nodded solemnly, "Hmm." β
