Early the next morning, Xiao Mobai just arrived at the company, and immediately received a call from the general manager's office. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

Of course, Qin Shijin called, and after Xiao Mobai picked it up, he really heard Qin Shijin's voice, "When did you start to become so gossipy." ”

However, Xiao Mobai has never been a gossip person, nor is he a person who talks a lot.

It's just that for so many years, Xiao Mobai has always been in the bottom of his eyes. The relationship between Qin Shijin and the Qin family, the relationship between him and his mother, Qin Shijin used to come and go around him, there were so many women, but he never felt that any one could make him really open his heart. But this time, he always felt as if something should change.

So, he decided to take a gamble.

Xiao Mobai held the phone and said with a smile, "I just told her and gave her a souvenir." I just remembered that my aunt came to Hong Kong City, and I accidentally said it. ”

Whether it was careless or deliberate, Qin Shijin didn't know.

"There's no need for that." Qin Shijin said in a deep voice, "Don't mention it again." ”

Listening to these words, it seemed that the situation had not improved as he expected, and Xiao Mobai didn't have much to say, so he could only respond, "Okay." ”

Immediately, a phone call ended.

Xiao Mobai looked at the documents in front of him and couldn't help sighing, "This is difficult." ”

Could it be that Lu Zhanyan is not his death point?

……

The general manager's office on the top floor, Sun Yingzi just came out after delivering coffee. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and when she came to the secretary's room, she couldn't help but ask softly, "What's wrong with Qin Shijin?" ”

After Sun Yingzi came to the company, he usually called Mr. Jin, but when he came to private, he forgot the distinction between public and private from time to time, and occasionally called his name directly. Xiao Meng, who is now qualified as an acting secretary, and another assistant have become accustomed to this situation.

Xiao Meng said, "Get used to it." ”

"Can you get used to this kind of thing?" Sun Yingzi just went in, she just went to deliver a cup of coffee, but he criticized her to the point of indecency.

Sun Yingzi is slowly adapting to the company, and her growth is very slow, but she is also very serious, I really don't know where she provoked him!

Xiao Meng knew that after taking over the job of secretary, he realized how difficult it was. Qin Shijin was originally indifferent, and he was strict in his treatment of official affairs, and it was inevitable that he would tremble when he did things under him, but now his identity is even more unusual and more difficult to get along with. It's just that I really don't know how Secretary Lu survived before.

"You must get used to it, if you don't get used to it, you can only leave." Xiao Meng sighed.

Sun Yingzi also had a temper that did not admit defeat, and immediately said stubbornly, "I won't leave like this!" ”

The morning was spent peacefully, the meeting ceremony, and everything was normal except for a certain supervisor who was shelled out.

It was almost noon, Qin Shijin's mobile phone vibrated and he received a text message.

The text message reads&mda;&mda;Xiaojin, I'm in the café across the street from the company, so I'll stop by in a moment if you're free. If you don't have time, you don't have to come.

Knock Knock &mda;&mda;

At this time, Sun Yingzi knocked on the door and entered the office, and couldn't help reminding, "Mr. Jin, you made an appointment at noon today......

Before he finished speaking, Qin Shijin stood up.

Sun Yingzi was stunned, he had already pulled his suit jacket and walked outside, she came back to her senses and shouted again, "Mr. Jin!" ”

Qin Shijin didn't stop, he didn't even look back, and when he spoke, he had already pushed open the door, "I already know the itinerary." ”

Now that he knows, where is he going now?

Isn't it time to go to dinner yet?

Sun Yingzi couldn't help but be depressed, he was simply the most ungentlemanly man she had ever met!

※※※

In the nearby café, sunlight penetrates the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the entire hall unusually transparently.

"How many are you, sir?"

"Find someone."

Qin Shijin walked in, too accustomed to where she would be, directly ignored the front row, and fixed his eyes on the direction at the back. At the same time, the whole person has already walked over. When you get closer, you will see a woman with her back to you. That back is also recognizable at a glance.

Then he swept past her, and when she raised her eyes, he took a seat in front of her.

"What do you need, sir?"

"Qing coffee."

Immediately, a cup of clear coffee came up, and there was a curling white water vapor floating.

Sandwiched between the two, it seems to have built an impenetrable high wall.

Qin Shijin's eyes were leveled at her, his expression was very cold, and he didn't have much emotion when he looked at her. But his gaze was very focused, as if he was looking, as if he was looking at her carefully.

Lin Haiyin is wearing a white skirt today, still with her hair pulled up, her complexion is fair, soft and gentle, such a woman can't see her age, she only feels indescribably elegant, just like the ladies in the picture of ancient ladies with low eyebrows and a shallow smile, revealing a noble temperament all over her body.

But such nobility and elegance made Qin Shijin feel unkind.

Lin Haiyin lowered his head slightly, never looked at him, and didn't know what he was dodging, let alone refusing anything. It was only when he came over that she instinctively looked at him. She seemed a little nervous, her slender hands and fingers lightly touching the wall of the cup, but she never said the first half of the sentence.

Both of them were silent, and this kind of silence seemed to be something that the two of them had become accustomed to.

The mode of getting along has always been difficult to change, and it is not something that can be formed overnight.

Finally, it was Qin Shijin who spoke first, "What time is the plane today?" ”

Lin Haiyin was silent, "The flight at six o'clock in the evening." ”

"Yes."

Then there was silence again, and the atmosphere became awkward.

Lin Haiyin held the cup hand and smiled slightly, "Why did you come here so quickly today." ”

Although Lin Haiyin does not work at Zhongzheng, he also knows the general working hours. Besides, in previous years, he would come over after resting. It wasn't yet his lunch break, and he actually came over.

"And socializing." He said lightly, such a formula.

Lin Haiyin subconsciously let out an "oh", "Then you go, it's not good to delay the business." ”

Qin Shijin wanted to get up, but he still didn't move. After contemplating for a moment, he said, "I'll take you to the airport after work." ”

Lin Haiyin stared at the dark brown warm liquid in the cup, "No, you don't want to send me." ”

He still needs to work.

And today is the death day, he should go back.

After getting her refusal, Qin Shijin didn't say anything anymore, just responded to one word and left decisively, "Okay." ”

After a while, Lin Haiyin raised his head. Just looked at the opposite position, the position that was already vacant and stunned. He didn't touch a sip of his cup of coffee.

She sat quietly until the warm liquid cooled through.

Only then did he call the waiter, "Hello, I want to pay." ”

"This lady, the gentleman just now has already paid for it."

Every year, it seems to be the same opening and the same ending, Lin Haiyin smiled faintly.

&mda;

She's coming back, and it has nothing to do with me, so why should I know.

Qin Shijin, she is your mother!

So what.

Then you give her a call and we can have a meal together......

There is no need for this!

……

Lu Zhanyan's mind was full of the conversation before Qin Shijin left yesterday.

She didn't know what to do, she was so helpless, she had never encountered such a problem, there was about family affection, which was what she had always lacked. But there is still a desire in his heart, a desire to go deeper, a desire to understand him, a desire to know his past, those things and people that he does not want to mention.

There has to be a way to solve it.

"Manager Lu, these documents are fine, right?"

"Well, it's time to distribute it and implement it."

"Okay."

The secretary exited the office, and Lu Zhanyan couldn't help but fall into deep thought again.

After a busy day, I finally had free time. took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Qin Shijin, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was inappropriate. With such a temperament, he has already expressed his attitude and is unwilling to mention it, so no matter what she says, he will only stop mentioning it. If she continues to ask, I'm afraid it will only cause unpleasantness.

Lu Zhanyan was already out of options, and the only person she thought of being able to find out some news was Xiao Mobai.

Without any more consideration, Lu Zhanyan immediately dialed Xiao Mobai's number.

"Yo, Lu Zhanyan, why did you call me today." Xiao Mobai on the other end didn't seem surprised that she would contact him, smiling and teasing, with a consistent chic attitude.

Lu Zhanyan held his mobile phone and said, "Xiao Mobai, I know you won't tell me too much, I just want to ask you, where does Auntie live now." If you know, please let me know. ”

According to Xiao Mobai's attitude towards the world and the friendship with Qin Shijin, I'm afraid he is also up to the point, there are some things that should not be said, and it is not easy to say, he will never mention it again. She also thought of this layer, so she didn't ask about everything behind this, she just wanted to know Aunt Qin, where she was.

Xiao Mobai's smile was even more hearty, "Lu Zhanyan, should I praise you for being smart?" ”

"Thank you." Lu Zhanyan also accepted his praise unceremoniously, "Xiao Mobai, just tell me." ”

"Tell you, it's not impossible. But ......" Halfway through the words, Xiao Mobai paused, Lu Zhanyan waited for his next step, but heard him say, "Don't forget to invite me to drink." ”

Lu Zhanyan thought that he would put forward some unattainable requirements, but now he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this is certain." ”

Immediately, Xiao Mobai reported the name of a hotel.

Lu Zhanyan was grateful and hurriedly thanked him.

Xiao Mobai didn't forget to remind, "She is on today's flight back to the UK, and I don't know if you can catch it." ”

Lu Zhanyan turned his head to look at the time, and it was already nearly four o'clock.

Today's flight?

Who knows which shift it is?

She really couldn't help it, and scolded Xiao Mobai, "You didn't say it earlier!" ”

Smack&mda;&mda;

Lu Zhanyan didn't care about anything else, so he immediately grabbed his shoulder bag and rushed out. She wants to see Aunt Qin, at least for the first time.

Is it to the airport, or to the hotel?

Lu Zhanyan took a taxi and hesitated, "Go to the Gangcheng Hotel, master, please try to hurry up!" ”

The taxi sped to the hotel, and when she got to the location, she immediately paid and got out of the car and ran in. Coming to the front desk of the hotel, she asked anxiously, "Miss, I'm here to find someone, I know her." Her name is ......"

Aunt Qin, what's her name?

In fact, Aunt Qin is not surnamed Qin, but because of Qin Shijin, she has always thought so. Only later did I learn that her real last name.

Lu Zhanyan's thoughts were confused, and he suddenly remembered the name, "Lin Haiyin, yes, Ms. Lin Haiyin!" ”

"Sorry, we can't help you find out the room number of your friend, it's the hotel's rule......"

"I really know her, she's my aunt! Just tell me that she won't blame you when she sees me in a moment! ”

"I'm really sorry, we really can't check for you......"

The public relations at the front desk was still refusing, Lu Zhanyan became anxious, and it was when she was in a dilemma that a middle-aged woman approached her side, "Hello, check out." ”

Lu Zhanyan inadvertently turned his head and looked at it.

The other party also looked at her, and they were all stunned for a while.

Lu Zhanyan was stunned and muttered, "Auntie......"

Lin Haiyin was also stunned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, "Are you ...... Yan Yan? ”

※※※

"I have something to do today, I'll look for you later."

"Oh, okay, then you can call me when you're done, I happen to have something to do, I'm outside."

"Yes."

Qin Shijin was talking while driving the car.

After a few short sentences, the call ended, and he went to Qin's house.

Over the years, if it wasn't an important thing, Qin Shijin would only go back every Friday. However, on this day every year, even if it is a death day, there is no such practice to go back. Qin Yaozong did not allow the children of the Qin family to worship, nor did they allow them to mention it, which seemed to be a taboo. It's just today, and it happens to be Friday.

The car drove into the Qin family's villa, and coincidentally, Fang Xian also came back from outside.

Looking at her dress, wearing a black dress, white flowers pinned to her chest, and a black gauze hat, she knew at a glance that she had just returned from Nanshan Cemetery.

Fang Xian said casually, "It's here." ”

Qin Shijin was silent.

The two didn't say anything more, they always got along like this, seemingly calm, but in fact cold.

Today's Qin family did not go out of their way to hang on to it, but the whole villa showed a solemnity. All the colors have faded away from those bright colors, and there is only a single hue. entered the side hall, Qin Yaozong was there, and Qin Yihuai was also there. The two were talking, about the company, about some things in the business field. Qin Shijin was silent and only sat on the side.

At six o'clock on time, Fang Xian instructed the housekeeper that it was time to eat.

In fact, on this day in previous years, there would always be a shortage of a few people, and Qin Yaozong would not let them return when they were studying abroad.

Only this time, there was still no news.

Qin Yaozong's appetite was obviously not good, he only ate a small half bowl of rice, and then put aside the dishes and chopsticks, and he didn't know why he was angry, so he got up and left the table without saying a word.

Fang Xian saw him leave the table, and he had no appetite, so he hurriedly ate some and left the table.

In the huge restaurant, at the top of this table, only Qin Shijin and Qin Yihuai remained.

The rules of the Qin family's meals are not allowed to talk casually, but Qin Yihuai opened his mouth this time, "What?" Today, you're back! Don't have to go with you? ”

&mda;

Qin Shijin was silent, and Qin Yihuai sneered again, "After all, you only see you twice a year." ”

One is the New Year, and the other is the death day.

"Heh, I forgot, even she probably didn't forgive you, how could she want to see you." Qin Yihuai raised his eyes to look at him, stared at him closely, and continued to speak impersonal words.

Regarding Qin Shijin and his mother Lin Haiyin, since that year, Lin Haiyin has been sent to England. Qin Yaozong gave an order that she would not be allowed to come back for the rest of her life. Qin Shijin was left behind, and later went to the UK, one is to study, and the other is because Lin Haiyin's depression is too serious and he needs his relatives by his side.

It's just that before this, or after returning from the UK, Qin Shijin and Lin Haiyin met many times.

It's just a handful.

Qin Yihuai once accompanied Guan Feifei to the United Kingdom, and during the Chinese New Year, Qin Shijin was in the company. There is no Chinese New Year's Eve or holiday in the UK, and it is still work.

He didn't even need to know anything more to be sure that their relationship was almost frozen.

"I'm sorry for you." Qin Yihuai's eyes froze, and mocking laughter quietly spread in the restaurant.

Qin Shijin had already finished his meal slowly, and then he spoke, and only said one sentence, "I don't even understand the rules, I feel ridiculous for you." ”

He stood up expressionlessly and retreated almost perfectly in front of Qin Yihuai.

Qin Yihuai's hand holding the chopsticks suddenly became stronger, and his chest suddenly felt suffocated.

After dinner, Qin Shijin left.

Qin Yihuai came to the backyard of the villa, where was the flower room of his mother Fang Xian. Qin Yihuai walked in and shouted, "Mom." ”

Fang Xian was taking care of those potted flowers, turned her head to look at him, and said while taking care of them, "I'm going to see your dad today." ”

Qin Yihuai took a few steps closer, he didn't speak, just listened.

"I told him, you are all fine, grandpa's health is good, Wu'er has graduated......" Fang Xian whispered, those words floated into Qin Yihuai's ears, and the soft voice told everything about them, whether they were living well, making the suffocation in his chest that had not yet dissipated even worse.

※※※

Qin Shijin, who left the Qin family, drove the car alone for a while, and then called Lu Zhanyan.

Lu Zhanyan said, "I'm still eating, come here." ”

"With whom?" Hearing her say this, Qin Shijin subconsciously understood that she would not be with the client, otherwise, she would not have called him over.

"Anyway, you just come here, you'll know when you come, come right away. We sit at the table by the window, and you can see it as soon as you come in. Lu Zhanyan told him several times, and then told him the address.

It's just a small restaurant that is not well-known, and the market is not very good, but the business is very good.

It's the time to eat, and the restaurant is full of customers.

Qin Shijin searched all the way and finally found this restaurant.

He was still in the car, and when he had time to go down, he turned his head, but saw the two people by the window. From this angle, you can see the customers in the restaurant clearly. They sat facing each other and ordered a few dishes. The smile on Lu Zhanyan's face was very bright, with a closed lip flap, and he kept talking. And the woman opposite her, smiling quietly, also spoke to her steadily.

The lights are very bright, and the scene is particularly hazy.

There is an uncanny feeling, as if it is far away, but yet very close.

It seemed as if he hadn't seen such a scene in a long time, but it was as if he had experienced such a scene vividly a long time ago.

Qin Shijin didn't expect that the person who had dinner with Lu Zhanyan turned out to be her. It's not that the flight at 6 p.m. should have already taken off. At this moment, how could it be here. It was like a hallucination, but the warm wind in his face, the aroma of the dishes, and the noise of the people around him convinced him that it was them.

Qin Shijin had already gotten out of the car and entered the restaurant unconsciously.

But when he was about to approach them, he stopped at once.

I don't know if I should step forward, maybe I will break such a harmonious atmosphere, the first time, he was so hesitant.

But at the same time, Lin Haiyin had already seen him. He was still smiling, but the moment his eyes met him, he was silent. Even the smile faded a little and froze at the corners of his mouth. It's just that her eyes are condensed with a flickering light, and the longing is hidden deeply, deeply.

Qin Shijin even thought at this moment, maybe it was right not to come in.

"Hehe, Auntie, it's so interesting......" Lu Zhanyan was laughing, and suddenly raised his eyes, and saw Lin Haiyin looking ahead in a daze. She turned around in confusion and saw Qin Shijin behind her.

Qin Shijin stood in place, motionless.

Lu Zhanyan frowned, "Qin Shijin, come here!" ”

This stupid guy has seen them, why is he still standing there stupidly? I usually see that he is very smart, but when it comes to the critical moment, why is he so stupid!

Seeing that Qin Shijin still didn't move, Lu Zhanyan quickly got up and pulled him over.

Today is Friday, he should have gone to Qin's house, although he knew that he must have eaten, Lu Zhanyan still shouted to the waiter, "Here!" Add another pair of chopsticks! ”

"Would you like to order a few more dishes?" So as not to embarrass the atmosphere, Lu Zhanyan asked again.

Qin Shijin said, "I've eaten it." ”

This guy is really ......

Lu Zhanyan was depressed, and kicked him hard under the table, making him not know what to say, what to say and what not to say, don't you know?

Who knows, Qin Shijin doesn't give face, "What are you kicking me for?" ”

If eyes can also kill, then Qin Shijin is afraid that he has died hundreds of times, Lu Zhanyan really can't wait to stare at him to death, how can there be a person like him!

"What's wrong with me kicking you?" Lu Zhanyan retorted unconvinced.

"Whatever." He put on a cool sentence, as if how much an adult does not care about the villain.

"What do you mean by casual, do you want to order a few more dishes?"

"It's all about whatever."

The two were arguing like this, and Lin Haiyin on the other side couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw it in his eyes, "You two, why are you still like children." ”
