Chapter Eighty-Five: For You, He Bowed His Head for the First Time
And then as he said, the dishes came up.
Mr. Lin didn't talk to me more, but ate wholeheartedly, and when I saw him like this, I also followed his example and began to eat.
But to tell the truth, I am still a little uneasy in my heart, and I don't know what Mr. Lin called me for today.
Mr. Lin didn't drink, just concentrated on eating, and I thought he wouldn't say anything today until he put down his chopsticks.
"Miss Chen, do you know what I called you here today?"
Mr. Lin's words were flat, but when he said this, it made me feel uneasy.
If I really knew why Mr. Lin called me over, I wouldn't sit here, but would take the initiative to talk to him.
I shook my head, my eyes sincere, "I'm sorry Mr. Lin, I don't know what you called me here for today." ”
"Of course, if you can, I would prefer you to talk to me about cooperation."
Mr. Chen nodded when he heard my words, which made me relax for a while, thinking that everything was really as I thought.
"Collaboration is, of course, the most important thing. During the period of cooperation with Mr. Chen, I have seen the potential of your company and your ability, so I don't doubt it. ”
"It's just that since we're not in the company, let's not talk about business, I have some personal matters I want to tell you."
Mr. Lin suddenly changed the topic, which caught me off guard, and I didn't have time to be caught off guard, and I heard the name that I expected.
"If I'm not mistaken, Lin Xiangtian should have been looking for you in the past few days."
Mr. Lin's tone was flat, which made me think that he might not care about Lin Xiangtian.
But if he really didn't care about Lin Xiangtian, how could he ask me out to meet and tell me these things?
In any case, since Lin is always Lin Xiangtian's father, then I will definitely tell him the truth.
"Mr. Lin, you guessed right." I nodded to him and replied honestly, "Lin Xiangtian came to look for him yesterday, but I just said some cruel things, and he didn't come today." ”
"Then may I ask why you are speaking harshly to him?"
"There are some things that even if I don't say it directly, Mr. Lin knows it in his heart." I smiled helplessly at Mr. Lin, "Although Mr. Lin, the relationship between you and Lin Xiangtian is not good, but he is your son after all, and you know better than me." ”
"I know this kid has always liked you since he was in college." Mr. Lin's sharp eyes looked at me, seemingly without malice, but it still made me tremble.
"But you kid is also a stubborn temper, and you've never accepted him for so many years. At first, I really didn't like you very much, but now that I understand your ability, I have to say that Lin Xiangtian does have a vision for people. ”
"Mr. Lin, if you want to say that, you are helping to abuse."
I thought that Lin always advised me to stay away from Lin Xiangtian, but I didn't expect him to say such things in front of me.
"How can it be aiding and abetting?" Mr. Lin obviously didn't understand, and explained to me: "I just admit that Lin Xiangtian didn't look away, but I didn't agree to the two of you being together."
"After all, you are already a divorced woman, not to mention that there is Qin Han by your side now. You and Lin Xiangtian are not people of the same world for a long time! ”
All the things that Mr. Lin says to me now are what I would tell Lin Xiangtian on weekdays.
I have to say that it's okay to say it from my own mouth, but it is good to say it from Mr. Lin's mouth, although it is all true, it still makes me feel uncomfortable.
It seems that after getting divorced, I am no longer a whole person.
But I feel that since the divorce, my soul has been redeemed, and I have truly become a cliché, not a waste.
But in front of Mr. Lin, it is no longer worthwhile to say this.
I don't want to take the initiative to quarrel with Mr. Lin, after all, the two of us finally stood on the united front.
So even if I feel wronged in my heart, I can only smile and nod to Mr. Lin.
"Mr. Lin, what you said is very right, Lin Xiangtian and I are no longer from the same world. I've said this many times, but he's been obsessed. ”
"I know this, you have rejected Lin Xiangtian many times, from college to now."
"Since Mr. Lin knows that I have no interest in Lin Xiangtian, and he also knows that he has been pursuing me hard, what is the purpose of coming to me today?"
"Anyway, I have to admit that you're a good guy." Mr. Lin opened his mouth to explain to me, but he lowered his head and did not look at me.
"It is precisely because of this that I will not restrict the interaction between you and Lin Xiangtian, but only to friends."
As he spoke, Mr. Lin suddenly changed his words and began to warn me, "If you let me know one day that you have any thoughts about wanting to be with him, I will never spare you." ”
"Please rest assured that Mr. Lin will agree if I will promise Lin Xiangtian, I will agree as early as when I was in college, and I don't have to delay it for so long."
I nodded at Mr. Lin, with a little detachment in my smile, "If Mr. Lin is not at ease, you can ask your assistant to check at any time, anyway, it's not the first time, isn't it?" ”
It is not difficult for me to imagine that Mr. Lin was able to know what happened between me and Lin Xiangtian so quickly, it must be because he sent someone to follow Lin Xiangtian.
It's certainly good to want to protect my son, but I don't want Mr. Lin to go too far.
Because I am not the perpetrator in this matter.
Lin Xiangtian likes me, even if I don't like him, but I don't hate him, I really treat him as a good friend, not an enemy.
"Of course it's best if you think so in your heart, but I don't want you to be too cold to Lin Xiangtian." Mr. Lin nodded, obviously satisfied with my answer.
"I don't quite understand, and please say it directly, what does this mean?" I smiled politely, but I couldn't resist the urge to rush out.
"I don't want Lin Xiangtian to be too hurt, so you can refuse him, but please don't cut off contact with him about it, he needs you as a friend more than he needs me as a father."
When Mr. Lin said this to me, I was sure that he was from his own sincerity, his eyes were genuine, his hands were clenched, and it was completely a father's expectation.
This made me suddenly have some inexplicable emotions in my heart, but after a while, I returned to calm, and I only felt helpless in my heart.
"Mr. Lin, since you care so much about Lin Xiangtian, why don't you talk to him yourself?"
"You don't have a good relationship with him, say what is in your heart, maybe he will understand you."
"It's not as easy to say these things as it gets. You are not our Lin family, you will not understand the complicated reasons for this, and he should blame me. ”
"But no matter what, communication is always the most important thing. As long as you are willing to communicate, everything will have a solution. ”
I tried hard to make Mr. Lin understand what I meant, and wanted to ease the relationship between him and Lin Xiangtian.
"For example, you and I before, you were reluctant to cooperate with me at first, but since you cooperated with me, you have realized that I am not as bad as you imagined."
"So as long as you and Lin Xiangtian are willing to understand each other, maybe everything will turn around."
I thought that Mr. Lin would understand me after hearing what I said, but he just suddenly smiled at me with a playful smile in his eyes.
"Working with you?" He finally drank his first drink of the night, "Do you know why I'm working with you?" ”
His words stunned me for a while, and I couldn't react for a long time.
Mr. Lin...... What do you mean by that? ”
Sure enough, there is a secret in this matter that I don't know.
Mr. Lin didn't hide it from me, and immediately opened his mouth, "I decided to cooperate with you, not because of you, but because of Lin Xiangtian." ”
"Of course I know this, if it weren't for Lin Xiangtian, you wouldn't have cooperated with me." I nodded, not as surprised as Mr. Lin imagined.
"What I want to know is, what method did Lin Xiangtian use to get you to agree to cooperate with me?"
"He founded his own company, which is more or less convenient because I am his father, but there are also many difficulties."
"This difficulty should be something that Miss Chen has never encountered, because you have Mr. Qin by your side, of course he will help you deal with most things."
"Mr. Lin, you are right, Qin Han has indeed helped me a lot, but I still did it myself to establish the company."
Mr. Lin was not interested in my explanation at all, he just looked at me quietly and said softly: "Lin Xiangtian, in order to help you, he promised me to invest in his company, so that his company can continue to operate."
"Otherwise, don't talk about the cooperation between me and you now, even Lin Xiangtian's company has already gone bankrupt."
"How so?!"
At this moment, my heart was indeed full of shock, I did not expect to hear such words.
"Lin Xiangtian has always been a very capable person, how can the company say that if it can't run, it really can't run?"
"No one believes it, but that's the way it is." Mr. Lin looked a little helpless, and he shrugged at me, "It's just a fledgling hairy boy who hasn't learned to walk yet, so he wants to learn to run." ”
"Mr. Lin can't say that, after all, I am also the first time to start a business, but I have not encountered such a situation." I shook my head at Mr. Lin, trying to get his thoughts out of my mind as much as possible.
"Everyone is different, not to mention that behind you is Qin Han."
Another meaningful look, as if there was really something unsightly between me and Qin Han.
"Where you can't see, how much darkness Qin Han can't see behind you, you may not know at all."
"But Lin Xiangtian can't do it, he and Qin Han don't know each other, and without my help, he can't move an inch."
"But in the same way, I helped him, and I helped myself, which is why I agreed to cooperate with you."
