Chapter Ninety-Six: Parting Is a Thing (2)
In Lin Youzhi's courtyard, a middle-aged man with a slight fortune stopped Yaoyao and the two of them with gestures, tiptoed behind Lin Youzhi, who was contemplating and thinking, and stretched out his head to peek at what she was writing.
There were dozens of books piled high on her desk, and even her own handwriting had been bound into four or five booksβwhich must not have been done in a few days. She had thought about it for a long time.
Lin Jingcheng looked at what his daughter wrote, and for a while his heart was both relieved and distressed. He was going to scare her behind her, but now he really couldn't do it.
Lin Youzhi didn't realize that there was someone behind him, so he kept thinking and writing. It wasn't until she finished another one that she noticed a sore neck and raised her hand to shoot it.
Lin Jingcheng immediately consciously reached out to help her knead and massage.
Lin Youzhi was shocked at this time, turned around and saw that it was him, and smiled with a sigh of relief: "Daddy, what bad idea are you playing?
Lin Jingcheng smiled and denied it repeatedly: "No, no, where can you be? Baby daughter, you continue to write, and Daddy will pinch your shoulder." β
Lin Youzhi glared at him and dragged him over. In order to be clean in the study, there was only this one chair, so Lin Youzhi moved to the side and sat on a small half of the chair. The father and daughter sat on a chair.
Lin Youzhi pointed his finger on his shoulder and said with a smile: "What's the matter, you're here to 'inquire' again?"
"Isn't it?" Lin Jingcheng patted Lin Youzhi's hand, saw that her knuckles were red from the pen shaft, and couldn't help but rub them up distressedly, and said casually: "Tell me?"
Lin Youzhi rolled his eyes, let him go, and listened to him in detail about his own affairs along the way, and every response to everything was not left behind.
Lin Jingcheng listened carefully, sometimes nodding, sometimes frowning, sometimes exaggerating and sighing, and occasionally interjecting a sentence, which made Lin Youzhi's words incoherent.
Lin Youzhi drank tea three times halfway before he finished narrating all this, and sat down to listen to him.
"Wait, Daddy will ask you first. Lin Jingcheng said with a tangled face, "You really like that unlucky boy?"
"That's right," Lin Youzhi corrected frankly and seriously, "I do like Lu Qiming." β
In fact, Lin Jingcheng had already seen it, but he didn't know which of these two people was the first to realize it; he really hoped that it was his own daughter who was late in enlightenment, and now look at it--he really suffered a loss, right? Fortunately, that unlucky boy could barely deserve it, otherwise Lin Jingcheng would be far more than just sighing.
Lin Jingcheng remembered what Lin Youzhi had just said, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, it turns out that it was Lu Qiming who set up a situation for that little prince!
"Okay!" Lin Youzhi shook his arm and said with a smile: "I don't know him yet, he originally intended to help me." But he's taken so much risk, how can I bear not to let him be easier? Besides, since things have been done, they should be done out of 10%, and bluffing is not my character. β
Lin Jingcheng was helpless, and said again: "Yes, don't blame Daddy for ruining the fun." I explained to you directly, if you really marry Lu Qiming, you can't think about the Lin family. No matter how authoritarian Daddy is, he can't do this. Unless you have what it takes to get that kid into trouble, tsk. β
Lin Youzhi chuckled and said softly, "I know." β
Lin Jingcheng patted her hand and sighed: "Actually, in Daddy's heart, I'd rather be cheap than that kid." β
Lin Youzhi said with a smile: "Other fathers feel sorry for their daughters, you are good, where is there anything to push out?"
"Daddy always hopes that your life can be a little smaller, a little easier, simple and happy, and Daddy will be very satisfied. Lin Jingcheng looked sideways at the shadow of his daughter's lower eyelids, and sighed again.
Lin Youzhi retorted without thinking: "If you give up everything you work hard for, then you will be the most unhappy." As soon as the words came out, she was stunned, silent, and laughed again.
Lin Jingcheng stopped talking, and jokingly said: "What about Miss Song? Are you willing to take care of such a thankless task?" He shook his head and said, "This is not like you, explain it quickly." β
Lin Youzhi nodded, his eyes drooped, and he said calmly: "I let Song Ping'an know that Lu Qiming is good, so that she is even more desperate for him." I let her know how bad my rival is, and she'll learn to be smart as quickly as she can. Everybody likes simple and kind people, but can simple kindness be eaten?
Lin Youzhi sneered slightly: "I'm afraid it's only good for Song Ping'an himself." β
"Actually, together with the Qin family's sisters and brothers, I have long known that Tang Sheng can't die. But I chose to do it anyway. It's nothing, but in this way, I will definitely be recalled by the family. β
She paused and calmly analyzed, "When I was away, Lu Qiming needed a smart woman who was dead set on him. Song Ping'an is the best choice. β
At the same time, Lu Qiming's new friends have good hearts, but their experience is extremely poor. Rather than waiting for their stupidity to turn into a catastrophe in the future, let me be this wicked person and give them a wake-up call. β
Lin Jingcheng nodded, did not comment, only smiled, "So relieved to let her take your place? Don't take others for fools." β
Lin Youzhi smiled and laughed at himself: "Although I do have this problem...... Not this time, though. Song Ping'an is not stupid at all, but he has a habitual awe of the family. Presumably, after this incident, she no longer has this shortcoming. β
"As for substitution?" Lin Youzhi said flatly: "What's not to worry about? There are thousands of women like Song Ping'an in this world, but Lin Youzhi is the only one." β
Lin Jingcheng thought deeply about this, but he was not at ease with Lu Qiming, and frowned: "You do so much, and you don't talk to others, be careful to play the piano to the cow." β
Lin Youzhi's eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, and his voice was soft: "Daddy, do you know what one of the reasons why I like him? He knows what I do for and what is good. β
After a pause, her eyes turned cold, and she said, "As for those who can't even distinguish between good and bad, what do they think of me, what do they think of me, and what do they do to me? β
"Alas, daughter. Lin Jingcheng hugged her distressedly, shook his head and sighed: "Hard mouth!
Lin Youzhi was silent for a moment, pushed him hard with his hand, and said with a smile: "Dad, are you finished? Are you addicted to children's love today? Tell me something useful!"
Lin Jingcheng also knew that it was time to change the topic, and said with a straight face: "Youzhi, in the year you are in charge, Dasheng's income ranks third. β
Lin Youzhi let out an "oh" and pouted, "The penultimate one...... But each of the three of them owes at least 30% of their profits to me, right?"
Lin Jingcheng didn't give her face and said, "But have you achieved your own goal?"
Lin Youzhi shook his head honestly.
"Yes, everyone knows that you are a smart person, but because of that, you are not really smart. Lin Jingcheng said earnestly: "Think about it, if you suddenly give people benefits with kindness now, will people be grateful to you, or will they be wary of you?"
Lin Youzhi was a little frustrated: "I know, I also found out." It's not like I was used to being smart when I was a child, and I took everyone in the world for a fool...... Alas, it's so naΓ―veβwell-informed, naΓ―veβyour name is not wrong. β
Lin Jingcheng slapped her on the head lightly, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, blame me?"
"I'm already working on it, but it hasn't worked yet. Lin Youzhi was helpless.
"You can figure this out on your own, it's a delicate job. Lin Jingcheng smiled gloatingly, and then found fault and said: "Also, as a housekeeper, 'everything must be done personally' is not an advantage -- don't refute it! I know that you think that others are not good enough, but you have done everything, who wants to follow you? And for a long time, the vision is easy to be framed by trivial details, not good, not good." β
Lin Youzhi stuck out his tongue, nodded seriously, and pretended to be scared and said pitifully: "What else?"
Lin Jingcheng laughed, and said seriously: "The calculation is too detailed, and it is out of atmosphere." For example, the time you helped Qin Yuefeng, there was no need to make so many detours, it was better to be clear directly. You read a lot about the art of war, but the feelings of a single person cannot be equated with marching and fighting. β
Lin Jingcheng said politely: "Your way of scheming can at most be a small strategist who plots a state, but it is not enough to seek a country." Not to mention that your ambition is to be a commander rather than a strategist - but it takes experience!"
Lin Youzhi was carefully taught, and said calmly: "So I am willing to go to the Black Triangle." β
Lin Jingcheng was suddenly deflated, and said with a sad face: "Girl, you can't think about it anymore? Isn't there a third choice? There are so many temptations, I really don't want to?"
Lin Jingcheng didn't believe that with Lu Xingzhi's old fox's Taoism, he wouldn't be able to deal with those fools of the Lu family. When the Lu family corrected Lu Qiming's name and let Lu Qiming marry Lin Youzhi, Datang didn't dare to say anything more. Wouldn't it be best if the wind and waves were calm and harmonious when the time came?
Lin Youzhi shook his head and said no more.
Lin Jingcheng sighed. Not to mention that if you want to reach it, you have to pass through the vast snowy area of extremely dangerous places; more importantly, the Lin family has no foundation in a place like the Black Triangle, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is not even a little bit of crossing the river dragon. It is difficult for Lin Youzhi to even protect himself there, how can he gain a firm foothold from scratch?
If it's for the sake of training, the price is too great. How could he bear to risk his most beloved little daughter with her life?
Lin Jingcheng still wanted to persuade again, and Lin Youzhi asked rhetorically: "Does Daddy want me to marry Tang Sheng and be killed by him?, or do you want to marry into the Lu family and be a vase that is useless?" She stroked a few books and said categorically: "I will never let my hard work go to waste." β
She has actually been eyeing the Black Triangle for a long time. Interests are secondary, and the development of her Lin clan so far, what is most lacking is that kind of killing spirit. Those old guys are content with the status quo and don't want to change, so it's up to her to take it!
She glanced at Lin Jingcheng and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't let myself die in the Black Triangle." β
Lin Jingcheng said, "What do you do with unlucky words!" He looked at his daughter's firm side face, helpless. Lin Youzhi cheated Tang Sheng with this move, so why didn't she trap him? She let herself fall into such a situation, but also to make him have no choice.
Lin Jingcheng shook his head and said, "This time the family can give you not too many resources...... Luckily, Daddy knows that you have a small coffer, you have to have more than 20 million chips, right......?
Lin Youzhi quietly looked away and nodded with a smile.
Lin Jingcheng didn't notice her abnormality. He knew that she couldn't pull it back after she made a decision, and sighed, "Wait a little longer." Daddy can help you drag Lu Qiming until he has news, so that he can say goodbye......"
"No need. I'm pretty much ready. Lin Youzhi shook his head and chuckled: "I've heard that some people choke to death by drinking water, and they may be knocked down by the vase in the sky even while walking." In this way, don't you even have to say goodbye solemnly before eating, sleeping, or doing anything?"
Lin Youzhi said softly: "There is no need. β
Lin Jingcheng was silent for a long time and muttered, "Hard mouth." β
