Zhai Jin's eyes finally cooled, and he replied unhappily: "I'm not Gay, I'm not interested in men. ”

Lin Miao pursed her lips and smiled, "Of course, I'm not questioning your sexual orientation. It's just that I know you and I've never spoken to you from the bottom of my heart, in fact, strictly speaking, you and I don't have much intersection, and I haven't helped you in a substantive sense. If, I mean, if I were just a normal person who didn't come into your world, would you really notice me? ”

When Zhai Jin heard her say the words "put her heart in her belly", a strange emotion rose in her heart. This was the first time Lin Miao had spoken to him so seriously, although those words made him very uncomfortable, but he didn't want to treat her with a violent mood, but thought about it carefully. Did he really miss her because of Joe?

Lin Miao whispered: "Think about it yourself, I'll go first." She got out of front of him, and as she walked in the direction of the elevator, she kept her ears sharp and listened to the movement behind her, and found that he had never followed.

When he reached the elevator turnaround, he glanced at him and found him leaning against the wall with his head buried in thought. The slight movement in my heart quickened and walked into the elevator, and the heartbeat that I had tried to restrain at the moment when the elevator door was closed suddenly accelerated, and it seemed to jump out with a bang. Going down to the bottom, Lin Miao rushed out of the door, but her steps calmed down, she thought that even if Zhai Jin really caught up, at least don't let him see the embarrassed look.

However, until she got into the taxi, she didn't see Zhai Jin's figure.

The driver asked her where she was going, and said two words in a quiet voice: "Airport." At the same time, the mobile phone Internet booked the fastest flight back to Ningcheng.

Zhai Jin called before she boarded the plane, and she saw that the number hesitated for two seconds before picking it up.

"Went to the airport?"

"Something?" Ben didn't think that Zhai Jin could be ignorant for long, all she needed was time.

The next moment, Zhai Jin reported the flight number of her plane, and when she was slightly surprised, she heard him say, "Believe it or not, I can let this plane be delayed?" The heart skipped a beat, and then reacted very quickly and replied: "I believe it, but you won't." ”

At this time, the radio suddenly went off, and it was the announcement that her flight had begun to check in and board.

After being quiet for a while, Lin Miao said lightly: "Zhai Jin, I'll hang up the phone." ”

"Tell me, what kind of existence am I to you?"

Hearing that there was no anger in Zhai Jin's tone, Lin Miao said lightly: "Let's talk about this question after you return to Ningcheng." ”

Before putting down the phone and hanging up, there seemed to be a word over there - "good".

During the waiting period after sitting in the cabin, Lin Miao's eyes were calm, and she didn't glance out the window until she took off, and the moving scenery made her heart that had been hanging a little relaxed.

This was the first time she had been so nervous, and from the moment she knocked on the door of the hotel room and saw Zhai Jin, her palms began to sweat. As she thought at the time, Zhai Jin would come to Shanghai from Ningcheng, in addition to knowing her whereabouts, it also meant that he was confident.

And this can be interpreted into two kinds: one is that Ning Cheng is already under his control, and the other is that he is bound to win her.

Ning Cheng was separated by a distance of more than a thousand kilometers, and even if she was worried, she couldn't touch it; But the latter is imminent, and she has to rely on herself to get out when she is sure that she is unable to provide foreign aid, and force is definitely impossible, she can only rely on her head. The first idea that popped up was to provoke the method and use words to stimulate and force him back, but Zhai Jin's domineering personality was often unexpected, which was very likely to provoke him to be emotionally manic, which would only backfire.

In the end, she took a risk, did not scheming, and talked to him frankly and honestly.

It's not enough to put your heart into your heart, but the questions you ask and the words you exchange don't have the slightest falsehood, they are all heart-to-heart. At that moment, she could feel that the atmosphere had calmed down, and Zhai Jin's own flamboyant aura was gradually subdued, and he was even really thinking deeply.

When she felt that Zhai Jin's muscle state was relaxing, she knew that the opportunity had come. Proposed to leave, went downstairs, and rushed all the way to the airport, until this moment the plane took off, a total of more than two hours.

This period of time can be said to be tormenting, every minute is worried that Zhai Jin will come to his senses and regret it, in fact, he has indeed relieved himself at the moment of boarding. On the surface, it seemed to be very calm, but in fact, her heart was beating like thunder when she received his call, and she thought about not answering it directly, but she hesitated for two seconds and picked it up.

Because she thought that if she wanted to have follow-up communication with Zhai Jin, then don't block the road in advance. The first thing between people is to build bridges and be able to find a way to get along with each other comfortably, rather than tearing down the bridge just after crossing the river.

Strictly speaking, Zhai Jin, Lu Mian and her are three people bound by the grievances of the previous generation. Even Zhai Jin is not a vicious person, it was Lu Mian who won him five years ago, and he returned to Lu Mian five years later, what about another five years, is she going to help Lu Mian avenge again? They have been trapped in this deep pool for so long, why do they keep repeating this cycle without climbing ashore from the mire? Looking for the essence of the problem, a few people in the previous generation of grievances died, lame, and one was not in good spirits, could it be that one day they will end up like this?

Zhai Jin said that there is no so-called hatred in the world of men, what is nothing more than the fight between men and winning and losing. She didn't seriously ask Lu Mian the same question, what kind of existence was Zhai Jinzhi to him?

But it can be determined that Lu Mian has always shown mercy to Zhai Jin. In that situation, he could completely draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle and fight Zhai Jin never turn over, but he kept him a foreign territory and did not kill them all, which laid the foundation for Zhai Jin's resurgence in the East. And these five years...... Lin Miao couldn't help but feel stunned when she thought of this, and her eyebrows gradually frowned.

Before the plane took off, Lin Miao called Lu Mian, but there was no connection, so he sent a message. When she arrived in Ningcheng and got off the plane, she turned on her mobile phone and saw that the message was not returned, so she dialed again, but still no one answered.

She changed Ye Feifei's number, and no one answered it after it rang for a long time. When she got out of the airport, she looked around and called a taxi after making sure she didn't see a familiar vehicle.

Because she was mentally prepared and had a similar experience, Lin Miao was not too flustered. Even she opened her mobile phone to look through Weibo and forums, the tide of public opinion is always thunderous and rainy, in addition to the initial popularity, it is now showing a downward trend, and the atmosphere is gradually fading. She clicked on the second page at random, glanced out the window, and was going to see where the road was, but her heart skipped a beat when her eyes stopped, and she fell back to the phone screen again.

There is a new hot search mixed with dozens of messages, which is not so significant, but it makes her body freeze inch by inch.

The headline of that hot search is - JM was stabbed by his brother.

It's not that she thinks quickly, but the title is too iconic, JM is undoubtedly Lu Mian, and "brother" ...... She clicked on the title, and halfway through it, her heart was cold.

As soon as the taxi drove downstairs to the company, she ran away, and when she passed her company upstairs, she couldn't enter the door, and hurried to Lu Mian's side, but found that the door was locked. Turning around and leaving, the employees greeted her when they saw her coming back, but when they saw her go straight to the office without squinting, everyone looked at each other.

Lin Miao directly opened the secret door behind the book wall, and also pushed open Lu Mian's office door without hesitation, looking for it inside and out, and after making sure that his mobile phone was not missing in the drawer, she began to dial his number over and over again.

I don't know how many times I dialed it, but the phone suddenly connected, and Lin Miao's heart tightened, "Lu Mian?" ”

But I heard a voice in the silence: "It's not the boss, it's me." ”

"Ye Feifei, what did you do?" Lin Miao tightened her mobile phone and asked loudly.

"Lin Miao, don't look for him anymore, he's missing."

Missing?! What kind of nonsense is he talking about, how could he be missing at such a time? There has never been a moment when you are so angry and irrational as now, "Ye Feifei, let me tell you, if your heart is so black that even he is harmed, it will be retribution." Not only did he lift you to this high position and save you from prison, but he also saved your life! ”

"I know." Ye Feifei responded in a deep voice, but changed his voice again: "But I can't help it." The connection was interrupted after the words fell, and Lin Miao called again and it had already shown that the phone was turned off.

I only felt as if the tip of my heart had been pricked by a needle, and the pain was gone, but there was an indescribable discomfort.

I wanted to take a step, but suddenly my legs were weak and my knees touched the ground, and I reflexively grabbed the table next to me so that I didn't fall to the ground. Hold on to the corner of the table to get up, sit down in the chair and suddenly unload her strength, she has never been so flustered in the past, no matter how bad the environment is, she gritted her teeth and survived, but this time she couldn't control the confusion in her heart.

In addition, even if she and Lu Mian go back and forth and go back and forth, they also have a special feeling, called empathy.

Her current state of mind is to substitute into the role of Lu Mian, maybe she doesn't have a special complex for Ye Feifei, but Lu Mian does. It may be too exaggerated for them to use the words "birth and death", but in her distant memory, she heard Lu Mian mention that she had saved Ye Feifei's life, and she didn't know the specific situation, she only knew that Ye Feifei began to follow him after that.

In addition to her, the two people closest to Lu Mian are Chen Bin and Ye Feifei, and among the two, Chen Bin can be the most loyal subordinate, so Ye Feifei must be brothers.

Betrayed by his most trusted brother, he would certainly not be as empty as she was when he learned about it, but shock and grief were bound to follow. And the real reason why she is like this is that Ye Feifei said that he was missing.

What does it mean to be missing at such a time? It means that she absconded and disappeared from this stage in fear of crime on the surface, but she was more afraid of the facts on the back. Lu Mian has never been a person who is afraid of risks, and even if JM does go bankrupt one day, he will not run away. So his disappearance, if he was not hiding and devouting countermeasures, was imprisoned.

Zhai Jin said that he did not hate Lu Mian, and the only thing he was unwilling to do was betrayal. Looking carefully at the events that happened one after another, he seems to be following the old path and reporting back to Lu Mian little by little. Back then, he was imprisoned in the suburbs by Lu Mian, so this time Lu Mian also "disappeared".

Lin Miao took a deep breath, after she tried her best to get out of Shanghai and rush back to Ningcheng, did she still want to find Zhai Jin again when she came back? So Zhai Jin had already arranged everything before going to Shanghai?

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Miao sat in the declinted position of the café opposite Extraordinary Creation. There were two cups of espresso on the table, wafting with a fragrant smell, Zhai Jin walked in the door at 3:05, he looked around and found her, and then looked at his watch, and then walked straight over. When he got closer, he lowered his head and smiled and asked, "Am I late?" ”

Lin Miao shook her head, "There's nothing to be late for, I'll come down for coffee first after I'm done with business." ”

Zhai Jin sat down across from her and swept his gaze across the table, "You ordered it for me?" ”

Lin Miaodao: "There happens to be a buy-one-get-one-free event in the store. ”

Zhai Jin sneered when he heard this, but he also reached over and picked up the coffee and took a sip of it, but his eyebrows quickly frowned, "You like to drink such bitter coffee?" ”

"The first time you order this concentrated type, if you don't get used to drinking it, you can shout for another drink."

The corners of Zhai Jin's mouth tugged, "That's it, I didn't come to drink coffee in the first place." His eyes lit up at her, and the meaning in his words was more explicit than implicit.

Lin Miao didn't pretend not to understand, her fingertips groped for the lines of the coffee paper, and chose to say frankly: "Zhai Jin, in fact, I can take some specious words to warm you, maybe then you will never be ruthless to me, and you will always have a little thought." Speaking of this, she paused, and saw that Zhai Jin's eyebrows had frowned, and there was a faint cold light in her eyes, as if she expected her next words.

Sure enough, before she could speak, he cut it off: "If you don't like it later, it's better not to say it." ”

Lin Miao raised her eyes and looked at him for a moment, then continued with the previous words: "But I don't want to have an affair with you, because I already have a lover." You and I know that person, called Lu Mian, I have loved him for ten years, from being young and ignorant to now, maybe we haven't been together for a long time in the middle, but he is so rooted in my heart, there is no room for anyone between me and him, not even a grain of sand. ”

Zhai Jin's eyes were filled with anger: "So my meaning to you is a grain of sand that hinders you?" ”

Lin Miao narrowed her eyes and replied lightly: "If it is a grain of sand, it will eventually fall into dust." If you want me to define what kind of being you are to me, my answer is that I don't know. There is a sequence, but there is no logic in feelings, and it does not create boundaries because of the first come, the first to come. I can only analyze your feelings to you paragraph by paragraph, do you want to hear it? ”

Zhai Jin stared at her with a gloomy face for half a minute, during which she did not avoid her gaze and looked back at him calmly.

Until he spoke: "Speak! "A strong and commanding tone.

Lin Miao smiled, are people in high positions used to talking like this? I don't seem to have this habit when I reflect on myself.
