7. Father's indifference
Is it an evening appointment?
Because of Joe's ambiguous text message, Lin Miao was restless at work all day. Is he hinting that if he wants to get the contract back, he has to go to his appointment? This kid deliberately left this trick, which made her impressed.
The mobile phone was rubbing in the palm of his hand, and when he was about to respond to the appointment, a call came in, and it looked like it was Lin Yan calling.
Lin Miao pressed the connect button, and as soon as she put it to her ear, she heard an angry voice from the other side asking, "What's the matter with you?" Mr. Luo from Nanxing called me and sent me a frenzy, saying that you left him in the bar last night, and ran away without even settling the bill, and asked us if Media Asia was sincere in cooperating with them Nanxing. ”
Lin Miao couldn't help but sneer when she heard this, "Sincerity? Isn't it sincere enough to sign all the contracts? If the surnamed Luo dares to breach the contract, just wait to pay that large amount of liquidated damages. Why are you in such a hurry? ”
"I'm in a hurry? The surname Luo is on Dad's side, you better think about how to explain it to Dad. Dad told you to come back immediately! As soon as the words fell, the other side hung up the phone.
Lin Miao's heart sank, Lin Yan used her father to press her, even if she was unhappy, she could only go back.
When she drove back to the villa, she looked at the brightly lit villa, and couldn't help but feel like water, afraid that there was a storm waiting for her tonight. However, when he walked into the door, there was no big battle as Lin Miao thought, but there was harmony in the room.
Three or five people sat around the round table and had already started the meal, in addition to his father and Xu Xiaojun, there seemed to be guests. Xu Xiaojun is Lin Yan's mother, and the relationship with her cannot be said to be bad, nor can it be said to be good, it can only be said that the well water does not violate the river water.
I saw Xu Xiaojun holding the hand of a bright-looking girl, looking intimate. Lin Yan sat on the other side of the girl, his arm wrapped around her chair, and Lin Miao also knew this posture.
It was Sister Chen's call to "Second Miss" that attracted the attention of several people, and several glances turned around, and the originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly cooled a little. Seeing that her father just glanced at her lightly, but there was no anger, Lin Miao's heart was a little relieved.
Xu Xiaojun, as the hostess, naturally did not lose her thoughtfulness in front of the guests, and immediately asked Sister Chen to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks.
When Lin Miao sat down, he heard Lin Yan beside him sneer. She pulled the corners of her mouth, but she didn't hear it, she has never been at odds with this younger brother, and she can avoid it. After listening to the half-ring, I roughly know that this girl's name is He Miao, and she is the daughter of a certain bureau, and Lin Yan brought it home, no wonder Xu Xiaojun is so earnest and kind.
Originally, Lin Miao sat aside to narrow down her presence as much as possible, but He Qianjin just led the topic to herself.
"I heard this sister just now that she is the second lady, Lin Yan, you turned out to be the boss."
When Lin Yan heard this, he immediately looked unhappy: "Who said I was older than her?" He Qianjin was puzzled: "Then you are the youngest, my sister is your second sister, do you still have a big brother or eldest sister?" ”
Lin Miao's face sank, "Is Miss He a little lenient?" ”
He Qianjin was so hurt by her that she immediately couldn't hold her face, and turned around to ask Lin Yan for help, but saw Lin Yan with a dark face and said to Lin Miao: "I haven't wiped my own ass clean, and I still talk about others." ”
Lin Miao snorted coldly and was about to sneer at each other, when suddenly Father Lin slapped his palm on the table, which frightened everyone into silence.
"Come to the study." Father Lin dropped this sentence and got up and left, Lin Miao condensed her father's cold and hard back, and immediately followed. Hearing Lin Yan's gloating laughter behind him, Lin Miao's heart felt slightly irritable.
As soon as she stepped into the door, she felt that her eyes were dark, and a slap was slammed into her face. She staggered back two steps and retreated directly to the door, downstairs Lin Yan raised her head and tsked twice.
"Come in and close the door." Father Lin ordered in a deep voice.
Lin Miao didn't dare to cover her face, buried her head and walked back into the study and closed the door.
"What the hell is going on with Mr. Luo of Nanxing?" When he walked to the table, Father Lin turned around and asked, as if the slap just now was not his blow at all. Lin Miao's drooping eyes sank, and she reported last night's events to 1510, only omitting Joe's part.
After hearing this, Father Lin not only did not stop his anger, but his solemn face became even more angry: "You are ignored by others because you were eaten twice by Mr. Naluo?" Do you know how important this contract is for Southern Star? ”
Lin Miao frowned, she had already reported to her father that the person surnamed Luo wanted to drug her, but instead of caring about whether she was okay, he also assessed the matter as just being eaten with tofu twice! I knew that I was like a mustard in my father's eyes, but I still felt a familiar dull pain in my heart.
"What about the contract?" Hearing her father ask, she hesitated for a moment and lied: "The contract fell on my apartment." In order to cover it up, she followed up and said: "Actually, we have already signed the contract, Luo Mingbo dares to breach the contract, and they Nanxing will have to compensate us for a huge amount of liquidated damages, so dad ......"
Before she finished speaking, she saw something flying towards her, and instinctively turned her head to dodge, but she was still hit by something on her forehead, and the sharp pain came immediately.
Over there, Father Lin raised his finger and scolded her: "Do you have any brains?" Do you think that if you sign a contract, you can have no fear? You have offended Luo Mingbo now, as long as he stumbles on Media Asia in the future project cooperation, he can make us lose a lot. Do you think he still needs to pay any liquidated damages? ”
Lin Miao was silent.
Something rolled down his forehead, and he saw a touch of red in the corner of his eye.
Father Lin's eyes flashed with disgust, and he said in a deep voice: "Luo Mingbo, no matter what method you use for me, I have to coax people well." Next time, if something like this happens, you can step down from the company and go straight to Xining to develop a new company. ”
Lin Miao's heart sank, going to Xining was equivalent to being exiled, and all the hard work she had put into the company in the past few years would be in vain. She didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly responded: "I know." ”
"Get out!" Father Lin reprimanded angrily.
When she turned around, the warm red liquid in the corners of her eyes had already scratched her face, and when she opened the door, she heard her father behind her say coldly: "Rong Cheng will hold a drinking party at the Juhu Hotel on Friday night, you are ready to find a way to go in." ”
Lin Miao turned around abruptly and asked in astonishment: "Dad, aren't we and Rong Cheng not guilty of well water?" ”
Father Lin glared angrily: "If you are told to go, what is so much nonsense?" ”
Lin Miao's eyes darkened: "Yes." ”
