Chapter 43: The Unexpected
North Bay Villa, Lin Family.
Old Mrs. Lin sat at the top with a sinking face, and below was a group of juniors of the Lin family.
"Do you know what I called you over today?"
Old Mrs. Lin's voice was indifferent, her face was as heavy as water, and she couldn't see joy or sorrow, playing with a string of jade beads in her hand, her brows furrowed deeply, and she looked around at the juniors of the Lin family below.
The juniors of the Lin family were silent, and no one dared to speak.
"Lin Yuan, tell me about it." The corners of Old Lady Lin's mouth hooked into a sneer, and she opened her mouth to take a roll call.
Lin Yuan's face turned pale, his eyes flickered, and he slowly stood up, not daring to raise his head or speak.
"Why don't you speak?" Old Lady Lin squinted her eyes and leaned on the chair's body and slowly straightened up, the jade bead in her hand was pinched to death, and her gaze staring at Lin Yuan was also full of coldness.
"Mom, this matter is ...... I can't discipline"
"Smack!"
Lin Zhong, who was in the lower position of Mrs. Lin, hurriedly spoke, but was slapped directly in the face by Mrs. Lin unexpectedly.
Lin Zhong had a bright red five-finger mark on the right side of his face, but he still lowered his head, staring at the old lady Lin's finger joints that were a little white because she clenched the jade bead too hard, and her slightly trembling right hand did not dare to speak.
"I want him to say it himself!" Old Mrs. Lin's gaze never left Lin Yuan, and she was still aggressive.
"I owe it to me." Lin Yuan's breathing became heavy, and he seemed to be standing there calmly, but his body was trembling slightly, and the emotions of nervousness, fear and anger filled his body, but he didn't dare to attack at all at this moment.
The juniors of the Lin family were even more silent, they had never seen Mrs. Lin so angry that she actually beat people in the clan meeting! They immediately buried their heads deeper, and some even shivered.
Only a young man from the Lin family who sat at the end of the seat, he was mediocre, he was dressed in an Armani suit, his hair was combed to the left, he was sprayed qualitatively, his face was painted with light makeup, and his body was sprayed with cologne, giving people a meticulous feeling.
No one in the entire Lin family noticed him, and he had been sitting calmly at the end of the round table like a transparent person, not saying a word, just quietly watching everything in front of him. Until just now, at the moment when Mrs. Lin's slap landed on Lin Zhong's face, he seemed to have a cold smile on his poker face, which had not changed for thousands of years.
"If you do something wrong, you will suffer the consequences!" Mrs. Lin said in a deep voice: "Three days later, the board of directors of the Lin Group, I need an explanation!" ”
After saying that, she got up directly and headed towards the inner room.
The assembly dispersed, and the young man in the corner slowly got up and was about to leave, but Lin Chang's voice came from behind.
"Xiao Mo, what have you been busy with lately?"
"Uncle." Seeing Lin Chang, Lin Mo turned his head, nodded respectfully, restrained the smile on his face, and said, "Recently, several of my intermediary companies have finally improved, and I have to make persistent efforts." ”
"You kid, it's been so many years, it hasn't ......changed at all" Lin Chang looked at Lin Mo's gaze a little complicated, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Xiaoya is coming back, you can pick her up at the airport then." ”
"Good!" Lin Mo showed a happy smile in his eyes and continued: "I miss Sister Xiaoya too. ”
"Hmm." Lin Chang nodded, and then turned away.
After Lin Chang left, Lin Mo was still smiling, but the smile had changed a little, giving people a cold feeling, like the evening breeze blowing at midnight in the north, not harsh but cold to the bone marrow.
In the parking lot of Beiwan Villa, on a black Porsche 911, Lin Yuan sat in the back seat, lowered his head, stared at his trembling fists with red eyes, suppressed the anger in his heart, and he had no fear in his heart except anger! As for the performances just now, he had already thought of the results from the time he did that thing, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Xue was actually safe and sound!!
"Be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future. How many times have I told you this truth, not to mention that it is still the Lin family, our own family! ”
Lin Zhong got into the car, glanced at Lin Yuan, who was clenched into his fists, frowned and said in a deep voice: "When Lin Xue comes out, we will find a time to come to the door to apologize." ”
"No!" Lin Yuan almost roared, he glared at Lin Zhong angrily, and said, "Who is he Lin Xue?" I've been preparing for so long just to make her never turn over, and she can still come back to life? I'm not reconciled! ”
"So what? Now the facts are in front of you. Lin Zhong saw Lin Yuan, who was almost crazy in the rearview mirror, his brows furrowed even deeper, and he started the car directly with one foot of the accelerator.
……
The top floor of the Wynn Building, the president's office.
Ge Wan's thick eyebrows were twisted into a rope, and he sighed as he watched the news on the computer screen, with a look of amazement.
"Boom!"
There was a knock on the door, not loud but urgent.
"Enter!" Ge Wan rubbed his temples and spoke.
The door opened, and He Qun walked into the office quickly, his chest rising and falling violently, still panting, and hurriedly said, "Ge ...... Mr. Ge! News, did you see it? ”
"Well, I saw it, it's a shame this time." Ge Wan shook his head, his body slumped weakly on the boss's chair, and his whole person seemed to be hollowed out.
A look of incomprehension flashed on He Qun's face, and he couldn't help asking: "Mr. Ge, Lin Xue is still young even if she is a genius, we missed the opportunity to befriend her, and it should be her who loses, I watched you personally create the entire Wynn, and led the Wynn Building to dominate the entire Beichuan, a small Lin Xue ......"
"You know what!"
Ge Wan directly interrupted He Qun's words, and said angrily: "If it is the Lin family's infighting, it must be resolved internally, and it is the media and the court, is the infighting to this extent a joke?" The news that Lin Xue was expelled from the Lin family is absolutely true, and the confrontation between the Lin family and Lin Xue is definitely true! ”
"That ......" He Qun's eyes were also cloudy, and he looked at Ge Wan in shock, speechless.
"Lin Xue, I still underestimate her! I have checked it in the past few days, and the mysterious investor behind Li Qiang's hardware store turned out to be her, it turns out that she has already left such a trump card for herself! The more Ge Wan thought about it, the more frightened he became, his eyes rolled quickly, he sat up and tapped his index finger on the desk, and continued: "Moreover, Young Eagle is also the major shareholder of Li Qiang's hardware store, which shows that the relationship between Lin Xue and Young Eagle is by no means ordinary!" ”
"So the Lin family's withdrawal of the lawsuit is definitely a wise move, Lin Xue is soaring now, just these two layers of relationship, whoever moves her in the entire Beichuan will be dead!"
"Bump!"
Speaking of this, Ge Wan slapped the table, making He Qun tremble, and cold sweat whizzed down.
Lin Xue...... Lin Xue...... This person is not only not simple, but simply scary! This hand is left high, absolutely! Even the eaglets are in her plans! Such a person must not be an enemy of him, and he must be well wooed...... Beichuan in the future, Lin Xue ......"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ge's matter is not good for me, if I ......" He Qun was frightened, he never expected that a little Lin Xue would make so many moths, and now it has reached this height, and he can even be on an equal footing with a Beichuan boss of Wynn's level, which is still excessive!
"I don't blame you!" Ge Wan directly interrupted He Qun's words, shook his head and said, "The ideas are all mine, but it's not too late to make amends." ”
"Mr. Ge, how do you want to make amends?" He Qun's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his head and asked.
"Wait for Lin Xue to come out and make an appointment, no, we can't make an appointment, we have to go over and invite!" I'll go there myself! Talking about cooperation, Lin Xue is not what it used to be......" Speaking of this, Ge Wan had a bitter smile on his face, the talent that could have been wooed, but because of his momentary hesitation, he missed the opportunity, and now he can only make the next step......
……
The old town of Beichuan City, the old Beichuan shabu-shabu shop.
It's six o'clock in the evening, and the whole hot pot restaurant is already full, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a sea of people.
The air conditioner is turned on very low, but the whole hot pot restaurant is still in full swing, the faint aroma of shabu shabu with the smell of humidity and heat permeates the whole hot pot restaurant, everywhere you can see shirtless, or holding a wine glass to persuade wine, or picking up the meat slice dipping sauce and chewing a big mouthful, and from time to time a few bites, pulling their companions to chat with their eyebrows dancing housewives, waiters, food deliverers, chefs, the bar put the walkie-talkie to their mouths and loudly wah-wa-wah-wah, shuttling back and forth in the crowd.
Xiao Tao, Liu Quan, Fang Yi, and Xu Hao sat in the private seats separated by only one baffle, although they blocked the crowd in the hall, they still looked a little noisy.
But the three of them talked and laughed, and they were accustomed to this environment.
"Come on! Niece Fang Yi, let's have one! This time, Mr. Lin is overjoyed, let's get drunk! Liu Quan picked up the wine bottle and touched it with Fang Yi and blew it directly.
Fang Yi smiled and said, "Lin Xue is kind to our Fumen contractor team, she is really worth celebrating!" After saying that, she was not ambiguous, put the wine glass aside, picked up the chopsticks and opened a bottle of beer, and blew it directly.
"Good! Heroine in the middle of the woman! Liu Quan laughed, picked up the meat slices in the hot pot, dipped them in the sauce and stuffed them directly into his mouth.
Xiao Tao also smiled, raised his wine glass, and said, "No, no!" Why don't you take me after you all drink, I'm happy when Sister Xue is safe, I want to drink too! ”
Liu Quan and Fang Yi both laughed, raised their wine glasses and touched Xiao Tao, and the three of them drank it all again.
Xu Hao, who was on the side, saw that he was eating meat with his head bored, and there were already fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he was eating hotly, and he didn't care about the three of them at all.
The three of them drank for more than two hours, Liu Quan's face was flushed, obviously he had drunk too much, he patted the table and said with a smile: "Let's form a group to pick up Mr. Lin, no one is allowed to be absent, do you hear!" ”
Fang Yi nodded with a smile and said briskly: "Okay!" Lin Xue is a good person, although she escaped safely this time, I didn't help her anything, don't worry, I will repay my kindness, and there is still a long way to go! ”
"Haha, good!" Liu Quan laughed: "Little peach! What do you think! Speak! Mr. Lin came out, let's pick her up, did you hear that! Not a single one! ”
Xiao Tao's face was also flushed at the moment, and she couldn't help but drink two more glasses when she was happy today, but at this moment, after listening to Fang Yi's words, she suddenly fell silent, looked down at the gurgling blisters in the hot pot and didn't answer.
"Ask you! Little Peach! Liu Quan pulled Xiao Tao twice, and Xiao Tao came back to his senses.
"It's a pity that Sister Chen Xuan didn't come to ......"
"Don't mention that unrighteous guy to me! The last time I called her over, she dragged it out, anyway, I've already brought it, and if I come, I won't come and pull it down! ”
At the mention of Chen Xuan, Liu Quan waved his hand a little annoyed, picked up the wine glass, and was about to toast, Xiao Tao also immediately raised the glass, and the two drank it all......
