Chapter 14: Throw away all pretenses

Minister Song's smile was very reluctant, but his various experiences over the years still allowed him to pretend: "You are laughing, we didn't lie to you." ”

"yes, you didn't lie to me. It's just that my home address happens to be where your car is parked. I was afraid that I didn't wake up, so I was reminded to go downstairs in 20 minutes. I'm really sorry for burning your extra 20 minutes of gas. By the way, shall we talk about these things and go to the café? Doesn't it feel noisy? ”

The golden glasses trembled slightly, "You're kidding." ”

Lin Zhe looked at the other party's face and knew that he guessed most of the right: "You parked the car here and waited for me for more than 20 minutes." However, the weather is too cold for the air conditioner to turn off. There is no way to evaporate the water from the car air conditioner on the ground. ”

"We're just trying to make you don't think of us as enemies, we're comrades-in-arms." Minister Song hurriedly explained.

"Comrades-in-arms, indeed comrades-in-arms. Just a comrade-in-arms who used me as cannon fodder. It's like the United Nations used the Koreans as cannon fodder in a war. Lin Zhexun looked at Minister Song expressionlessly. I saw that the other party's face finally began to burst out, and his glasses jumped and jumped.

Using the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea to mock the Koreans, Lin Zhexun had to admit that he was cheap.

"I really don't believe that you can't find anything out of my information. I told Lee Ji-eun that I was a student at the Judicial Research and Training Institute, so why don't you go back and check where I will go in the future. Since you pretend you don't know anything, then I'll tell you: the Eastern District Inspection, I'm going to the Eastern District Inspection next week for an internship.

Well, now give me a non-disclosure contract with a hush money of 50 million won. You said that I took this money from an unknown source, is it possible for me to explain the origin of this money in the future? Also, let me act under the surveillance camera, this kind of thing is too dangerous, I won't do it. ”

Of course, Lin Zhexun knew that as long as he started writing, he might become the other party's lackey in his life. Some of the surveillance footage may be cut out and released to fool ordinary people, but this is another piece of physical evidence.

"Is the voice recorder still working?"

Minister Song couldn't help but be surprised, and his golden eyes no longer trembled: "You said you were laughing." ”

Lin Zhexun was a little curious whether he was chatting with the other party's glasses or really chatting with this Minister Song. Glasses are the body, and this kind of thing really happens.

He smiled softly, opened the passenger door, and prepared to get out of the car.

"Wait," stopped Goldglasses, "I'm curious why I let the driver get out of the car." The driver will not leak secrets. ”

"I'm afraid you'll kidnap you. There's no way I'm going to shout that the navigation is wrong and jump out of the window. ”

Boom!

The sound of the door slamming reverberated throughout the interior of the car. It also made Minister Song change his face with golden glasses. "It's amazing, it's amazing. Where is this little rookie who hasn't come out of the nest yet. Obviously it's an experienced guy. The current juniors are really getting more and more powerful, and they don't give me this senior at all. Don't you give a little face to the courtesy of the former official? ”

Minister Song shook his head and smiled helplessly, and reached out to turn off the voice recorder in his pocket.

......

"How much does this card cost?"

"500 won."

Li Zhien nodded, took out a coin from his wallet and put it on the roadside stall.

Truth be told, finding out that masks and caps are really a good invention, at least for entertainers.

Although...... Walking around the crowd with a mask is really conspicuous. But it can't be helped, she can't really wear only a hat on the street now.

Maybe everyone on the street will be ordered to wear a mask and go out in the future, so that she won't be so conspicuous.

Li Zhien wore a mask and a cap to stroll around the chaotic cultural circle, but he never left the van in the distance.

Lin Zhe inquired very quickly, and came down very quickly.

Don't guess, the two sides must have broken down again.

Lee Ji-eun sighed, walked on his short legs, and walked towards the entrance of Hongdae's examination center.

As soon as you enter the examination institute. She felt a familiar smell that was hard to describe. Perhaps it should be called the smell of the examination hall or semi-basement, it is an occlusive, moldy, sour smell, chills, and it feels extremely greasy in the nose, like the smell of rancid food, wine and bowls poured into a bucket of swill, which makes you feel home.

The small mouth under the mask slowly curls up a little.

To be honest, she actually misses the smell.

I didn't expect that I would be able to adapt to a similar place again after a few years. I even felt like I was home. Returned to grandma's.

At that time, I carried a guitar that looked not much smaller than myself every day. Then, with cheerful steps, in this familiar smell, he walked towards the most cramped semi-basement.

Walk back to your cottage and back to your most secure home.

Probably memories are always good. Maybe at that time, my footsteps didn't step out of any easy melody, only a body of fatigue remained. But Li Zhien knew that she was able to persevere because her old man was using her ear, which had lost most of her hearing, to judge whether she had come back safely by her footsteps. Because the lights in the semi-basement were too dim, the old man's eyes were not good. I couldn't see the look on her face.

Thinking of this, Li Zhien took off his cap and mask. Walking in the crowded examination hall with a plain face. Lin Zhexun's address naturally she knew from the company's employees, and now it is about to become a well-known secret in the company.

Bowing his head slightly, he walked straight towards his goal. Her speed is very slow, as if she is reminiscing about her life on this road, and it is also as if she is giving her inferior phone time to take a picture of her side face.

The photos on the gossip news should also be beautiful.

Jingle Bell Bell ...... The ringing of her phone came from the pocket of her down jacket.

It is the head of the broker's office.

"What's wrong with Nim, the head of the room?"

The other party's voice was very weighty, like a magnet of more than one pound under the watermelon scale: "Zhien, the negotiation between the Minister of Justice and that guy still failed." ”

"yes, I know." Li Zhien was not surprised at all.

"Also, did you see the news that D Agency just released?"

"No, I was just busy. What's wrong? ”

"D Company released the surveillance footage of the two of you hugging each other that night. What's going on? You don't mean ......"

Li Zhien's voice was calm: "Director Nim, I know. You don't have to worry about me. ”

"The PR document we prepared was written. Don't look at the Internet just yet. ”

"Well, I see" Li Zhien looked at the wooden door in front of him and hung up the phone.

......

Lin Zhexun looked at the door. I didn't expect that guy with gold glasses to be quite patient. For Li Zhien to be so attentive, he even chased him to his door. He wanted to pretend to be dead, but then he thought that a guy in a suit and leather shoes was still quite conspicuous standing in the somewhat congested and dirty corridor.

This family has to move, and if he doesn't agree to the other party's request, he can be annoyed by the other party.

The door opened quickly. But what caught my eye was not the pair of gold glasses, but a small face that was a little pale, without any powder, and even the dark circles under the eyes were very obvious.

It's over, sit down.

Lin Zhexun didn't dare to look into the corridor at all, he could hear whispers nearby.

The woman in front of her was crazy, running to her door so unabashedly.

Amid the exclamations of the crowd, they pulled her into the hut, and then after a loud closing of the door, everyone woke up to the fact that a man and a woman were alone in that room.

But in the imagination of the melon-eating masses, "Are you crazy? It's exposing my location to everyone!! Originally, not many residents here had seen me. How will you make me live in the future? ”

Li Zhien's wrist hurt a little from being pinched by a brute force, but she didn't speak, just bent down and took off her little shoes. As I walked, I looked at this small room of less than 10 square meters.

The air here is completely different from the outside world. The smell of ink from the mountains of books in the room was held hostage throughout the room, making it impossible for the smell of mold and grease to break through the door.

It's like two worlds from the outside.

"Even if a star of your size finds trouble at the door, please disguise yourself. Masks, sunglasses, hats. Bring them all!! Lin Zhexun stuck to the door a little broken, trying to listen to any movement outside,

Lee Ji-eun walked two steps on the wooden floor in a little white sock. Sitting in the only chair in the room. He said coldly: "I did it on purpose. ”

"Deliberately?" Lin Zhexun turned his head to look at Li Zhien, as if he saw a mental retardation.

"Not long ago, a photo of the two of us holding each other was exposed on the Internet." Lee Ji-eun took out his mobile phone and tuned it to the official SNS of D Company. Then toss the phone to the toad who was staring at it with wide eyes. "Honestly, are you a bastard or a scumbag, or a dog in human skin?"

Lin Zhexun looked at the picture on the photo, which was still the familiar black and white surveillance screen. A figure that looks very much like himself is holding the petite Li Zhien.

Am I really a beast when I'm drunk? Or a well-dressed beast? Going for something like a 10-year-old girl? Hey, pervert.

"So what are you doing here? Is there any good way to do it? Lin Zhexun threw the phone to the other party, but his ears were still attached to the door.

"It's official, just say you're my boyfriend."

Lin Zhe was stunned: "Didn't you say that you are still in the rising period of your career?" Can't there be any bad scandals? ”

"Cut," Li Zhien pursed his lips disdainfully, "It's all like this, what are you struggling to the death?" I really wanted to deny it before, and if I couldn't get into the negative news, I wouldn't get it. Now it's to prevent the reputation from getting worse and to prevent someone from maliciously slandering what unspoken rules are being said. So just admit it. You're my boyfriend, and we spent the night together. ”

"How does this statement feel even more offensive." Lin Zhexun walked back, then sat down on his bed, looked at the incandescent lamp on the ceiling, and suddenly reacted to something: "So you walked in unabashedly?" Create a kind of famous girlfriend and come back to find her boyfriend who still lives in the exam house? Isn't that even worse? ”

"And then by the way, I will publish your information and say that you have just passed the training of the Judicial Research Institute and are a good student." Li Zhien pursed his lips, as if he had been wronged by something.

With a sigh, Lin Zhexun put his hands behind his head. I have to say that this kind of public relations is quite powerful. But how does it feel a little bit like the feeling that some art practitioners in ancient times wanted to sponsor scholars, and then hoped that the other party would redeem themselves in the future.

Li Zhien raised his eyebrows slightly with a little smugness. It was the most straightforward approach she had thought of last night, and the best way to fix it. "How? Sign an agreement. ”

"Agreements?"

"The contract boyfriend's agreement. It's good for you and me. ”

I saw Li Zhien, who was sitting on the side, take out a pen and paper from his small bag, put it on the table, and said while writing: "Don't think that contract couples or anything are very unusual. There are a lot of fake couples in our circle. Some are to cover up some unspeakable things, and some are to hype each other. But for the two of us...... It seems to be a little bit of it. ”

"Why should I sign such an agreement? I'm not one of your circles. ”

"Using each other is good for you and good for me, win-win."

"It's good for you, I can understand, I set up a character of innocence and infatuation, and cleared the suspicion of unspoken rules, and even this wave of heat may be even higher, what you mean by win-win means that you win twice." Lin Zhexun smiled: "But what about me? What's in it for me? My identity has been exposed by you. The address was also given to everyone by your 'Belt and Road Party'. ”

Li Zhien's smile suddenly disappeared, and he threatened viciously:

"I'll just ask you if you sign it or not!! It's okay if you don't sign it, I'd love to see what a prosecutor needs to do to get rid of the peachy news. ”
