Chapter 37: Under Attack
Lin Man raised his eyes and glanced around, did not answer his question, but said, "Designer Huo, you want to get me drunk again, and then turn me back to the Huo family to give it to Huo Yunzheng?" β
Huo Yunqi's voice sounded a little anxious, "Give me ten minutes, I can explain." β
Lin Man shook his head, the corners of his lips rising bitterly, "You don't have to explain. β
"Linman, ...... that night"
Doodoooooo β
Lin Man hung up the phone decisively, and in the past few years with He Cheng, she has learned to tolerate. She can tolerate many things, but she can't tolerate the betrayal of her so-called friends.
The woman's eyes gradually lowered, and she really didn't know where else she could go.
The He family has long regarded themselves as enemies, and the Lin family has an uncle who always thinks about how to sell himself for money, not to mention, now that the matter between himself and Huo Yunzheng is getting bigger and bigger, Lin Man really doesn't know how to face his grandmother.
Huo Yunqi listened to the beeping sound coming from the receiver of his mobile phone, and his face became more and more difficult to look at. That night, he really had no choice, his mother's bitter pleading, and Huo Yunzheng's step-by-step pressing, so he had to hand over Lin Man to Huo Yunzheng.
But he is not a scheming person, and he did not approach Lin Man for Huo Yunzheng.
He had to explain all this to her.
He drove to the Sanshenghai Bar, where he and Lin Man first met.
When he stepped into the bar, he could see Lin Man sitting on the edge of the bar.
There were a few empty wine glasses on the table, and in front of her, there were two high-spirited women, not knowing what they were talking about, Lin Man's face was slightly red, but after listening to the woman's words, he became more and more pale.
Huo Yunqi's eyebrows furrowed, and he hurried over, just when he heard a sentence, "Slut!" He watched as the woman opposite slapped Lin Man in the face.
The delicate and fair cheeks instantly burned red, half out of pain, half out of humiliation.
Huo Yunqi rushed over with an arrow step, just in front of the woman, and his eyes, which were usually full of jokes, seemed to be as sharp as frost at the moment.
The woman didn't seem to expect that Lin Man still had a helper, and her momentum was obviously a little weaker, but her voice did not decrease at all, "With such good conditions, you have to cheat, isn't it a slut!" β
Even though Huo Yunqi received a good education since he was a child, he couldn't tolerate his friend being humiliated like this, and his hands were clenched into fists.
Lin Man covered her burning face, frowned and looked in the direction of Huo Yunqi, she could see that Huo Yunqi was already on the verge of anger.
"Huo Yunqi!" Just before Huo Yunqi had the next move, Lin Man stopped him with a loud voice, the voice was not loud, but it was enough for him to hear clearly.
After speaking, Lin Man didn't care about anything anymore, and walked straight out, she knew that Huo Yunqi would not be so impulsive.
Huo Yunqi followed behind Lin Man step by step, his eyes dodging, wanting to say something, but he was afraid of poking Lin Man's sore spot.
Lin Man stopped, "You go, I'm fine." β
Huo Yunqi's eyebrows frowned slightly, stared at Lin Man for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "I came to you because I have something to tell you." β
I'm afraid that she and Huo Yunqi have nothing to say.
Lin Man turned away without hesitation.
"Where are you going?" Behind him, the man asked eagerly. It was not easy for him to find Lin Man, so he naturally refused to let her go easily.
Lin Man didn't look back, and said coldly: "You don't want to talk here, do you?" β
He strode away.
Huo Yunqi was slightly stunned, only then did he realize it, and the corners of his lips showed a child-like smile.
The two walked into a nearby cafΓ© one after the other and sat down facing each other.
"Thank you." After ordering, Lin Man opened his mouth first.
The sudden thank-you made Huo Yunqi a little dazed. He stared at Lin Man for a long time, "Thank you...... Thank me for what? β
Lin Man stroked some messy broken hair around his ears, and the helplessness in his eyes was exposed, "Just now, thank you for helping me out." β
Huo Yunqi suddenly realized, a layer of dark clouds gradually appeared on his face, and his tone was full of worry, "She attacked you because of your affair with Huo Yunzheng?" β
Lin Man shrugged his shoulders and whispered seemingly nonchalantly, "Maybe." β
"What did Huo Yunzheng say?" Huo Yunqi's face was slightly gloomy, and when he mentioned Huo Yunzheng, his tone was obviously a little colder.
Lin Man chuckled, "What's the matter with him." β
"Because of him, you're hurt." Huo Yunqi's voice unconsciously had a trace of anger.
Lin Man shook his head and said helplessly: "He is the eldest and youngest of the Huo family, and he takes care of everything every day, where does he have time to care about my trivial matters." β
Before the woman's words fell, Huo Yunqi suddenly stood up.
Lin Man frowned and looked at the man standing, his face was extremely ugly, his fists clenched tightly, as if he was trying to hold back.
Lin Man whispered the man's name, "What are you going to do?" β
The man squeezed a few words out between his teeth, "I'll go find him." Although the words were unusually simple, the tone of his voice was unprecedentedly firm.
The cafΓ© was quiet, and the man's voice was very low, but it was loud in Lin Man's ears.
Lin Man stood up slowly, looking at the man's back as he drifted away, and a trace of warmth appeared in his eyes.
This man is not related to him, but he is only a few sides, but he is willing to defend himself like this, and even does not hesitate to turn against Huo Yunzheng.
It had been a long time since she had felt such pure care.
The man's figure was about to disappear, Lin Man reacted, hurriedly caught up with the man in a few steps, and hurriedly said: "Huo Yunqi, I really thank you recently, whether it is what happened to my uncle last time or what happened just now, you have helped me a lot." β
As he spoke, his voice gradually decreased, and he lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, I will pay you back." β
Lin Man has never been willing to owe favors to others, not to mention that this person is still a member of the Huo family.
Hearing this, Huo Yunqi turned around abruptly, and looked at Lin Man with a firm gaze, "I'm helping you, not for money." β
Lin Man was stunned for a moment, and squeezed out a little smile, "Designer Huo, Mr. Huo and I just came back from Fengwei Village yesterday, the site selection of the resort has been basically completed, and the foundation pit has been completed, just waiting for your design plan." β
When encountering problems that he does not want to face, Lin Man always likes to change the subject.
Huo Yunqi frowned, but he didn't continue after all, he said in a low voice: "I will discuss it with Mr. Huo again." β
"That's good." Lin Man said in a deep voice, raising his eyes to reveal a pair of clear eyes, staring at Huo Yunqi in a daze, "Next Monday's executive meeting, I'll wait for your plan." β
Saying that, he got up decisively, walked to the front desk, settled the coffee money, and strode away.
Huo Yunqi narrowed his eyes and watched Lin Man leave, but he didn't stop him after all.
In the Huo family villa, Pan Ruanqing sat on the sofa in the living room, her arms clasped to her chest, her eyes narrowed slightly, obviously thinking about something.
After a long time, the door of the villa was unlocked.
Pan Ruanqing straightened her waist and looked towards the door.
Seeing the man's handsome and delicate face, Pan Ruanqing instantly showed a smile. She called out to the man softly, "Son, you're back." β
Huo Yunqi frowned, "Mom, you haven't slept yet." β
Pan Ruanqing rubbed the corners of her forehead and said in a deep voice: "I have something in my heart in the past two days, and I have some insomnia. β
Huo Yunqi shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "You are all Mrs. Huo, what else do you have to worry about." β
Pan Ruanqing snorted softly when she heard it, her voice was a little unwilling, "After Lao Huo leaves, where is there a place for our mother and wife in this Huo family." β
That's true, it's just ......
Huo Yunqi smiled bitterly: "Mr. Huo didn't kick us out, it's already benevolent and righteous. β
"Son, you're still too naΓ―ve." Pan Ruanqing sighed, and there was a little bitterness in his voice, "He is kind, but he just wants to leave a good reputation." β
Huo Yunqi was stunned, indeed, if his father had just died, Huo Yunzheng would drive his mother and himself out of the Huo family, I am afraid that he would be vindicated.
Leaving them in the Huo family shows that he Huo Yunzheng is generous.
Huo Yunqi shook his head helplessly, he hadn't thought of this relationship before.
Pan Ruanqing raised his eyes and glanced at Huo Yunqi, stood up solemnly, walked to his side, and whispered, "Son, you really have nothing to do with the daughter of the Lin family?" β
Huo Yunqi was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Pan Ruanqing to suddenly mention Lin Man.
He frowned and said coldly: "Lin Man is still the He family now, and I will never worry about a married woman anymore." β
Pan Ruanqing cleared his throat, "So what, you don't understand business marriages." Huo Yunzheng doesn't care, what do you care about. β
"Mom!" Huo Yunqi really couldn't listen to it, and shouted angrily, "I'm different from Huo Yunzheng!" β
Pan Ruanqing saw that her son was really angry, her tone instantly softened a lot, she pulled Huo Yunqi's arm, and said softly: "Ah Qi, you are not too young, my mother just thinks that Miss Lin is very good, you really don't think about it?" β
Lin Man sneezed several times in a row, she frowned, and drank the hot cold medicine.
It rained in Fengwei Village that night, and later drank a lot of wine in Sanshenghai, and after returning home, he began to get hot and cold, and his head was dizzy.
She shook her head helplessly, she was old, she was really old.
I was in a daze, and suddenly there was a soft knock on the door.
Lin Man frowned, struggled to get up from the bed, and moved for a long time to reach the gate. Propping his arms on the door, he looked out through the cat's eyes.
The lights in the corridor were dim, and the man, as usual, was wearing a black suit, which was slightly wrinkled and not in line with his usual meticulous temperament.
Huo Yunzheng's face was gloomy, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious.
He...... What are you doing here.
Separated by a door, Lin Man stood in place in a daze for a long time, and never opened the door for the man.
The male voice outside the door coughed lightly, his voice faintly worried, "I know you're here." β
Isn't he a clairvoyant eye?
Lin Man swallowed, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the door.
The door opened, and Lin Man raised his eyes to look at the man, his face changed slightly.
She didn't really see it through the cat's eye just now, but she could see it clearly when she opened the door now. There is a faint abrasion on the right cheek of the man.
Her eyebrows tightened, and she couldn't help but say, "How did you get it?" β
Huo Yunzheng didn't answer Lin Man's words, his eyes were deep, staring directly at the woman, and he asked, "Someone attacked you today?" β
Lin Man opened her lips slightly, she didn't expect that this matter would reach Huo Yunzheng's ears so quickly.
