Chapter 15: Rivals in Love
On the weekend, Fu Zhining had planned to sleep well for a day to recuperate, but when she got up in the morning, she heard a clanging sound outside the room, she was so frightened that there was a thief in the house, opened the door with a golf club, tiptoed to the kitchen, and poked her head to find a man wearing a pink apron cooking something on the stove.
She breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Yize heard the movement and turned around to see her up, still holding a "weapon" in her hand. Fu Zhining reacted, "You came in like this?" β
Mr. Lin replied evasively, "I came in through the gate." Fu Zhining's brows tightened, and his voice couldn't help but be a little louder, "I asked, how do you know my password?" β
Yesterday, when Lin Yize left, he entered his fingerprints into the door lock system, he turned off the stove a little lower and looked at his watch to write down the time, "You told me last time you were drunk." β
Fu Zhining didn't remember saying the family password at all, and seeing that Lin Yize didn't look like a lie, she said "oh" in response.
The man reached out and probed the temperature of her forehead, "Did it burn at night?" Fu Zhining shook his head. Go wash up and have your breakfast on the table. β
Fu Zhining ran to the bathroom to wash, brushing her teeth, planning to change a new password later, in case Lin Yize appeared directly on her bed next time.
When she finished eating the ham sandwich alone, the man was still standing on the terrace and making a phone call, the door of the terrace was closed, Fu Zhining couldn't hear anything, Lin Yize paced back and forth with a solemn face and occasionally moved his mouth.
Lin Yize hung up the phone, opened the door and walked to the kitchen, took out a small bowl of lotus seed and lily bird's nest soup, stared at Fu Zhining, swallowed spoonful by spoonful before taking the bowl away satisfied.
Fu Zhining felt that his being the president was a loss to the culinary industry, such a good skill to open a restaurant was going to be popular, she was really curious about where the man had learned his skills, "Who did you learn to cook?" β
Lin Yize wiped the corners of her rosy mouth with a tissue, "Self-taught." He proudly read the envious look in the little girl's eyes.
"I've never heard you mention it, I didn't expect you to be so good."
"We used to eat out, so I didn't have a chance to cook it for you." Lin Yize whispered in her ear as he spoke, "I still have a lot of things you don't know, do you want to explore them?" His big hand secretly climbed up the little girl's slender waist.
The man's deep voice revealed a naked hint, "I'm done." Fu Zhining pushed him away and ran to the study, and Lin Yize followed slowly. Teacher Lin answered questions and talked all morning, and the problems that had plagued Fu for a long time were solved one by one, and before class, Lin Yize even assigned her after-class homework, "Write it and send it to me tomorrow night." β
Fu Zhining closed his eyes and ignored it, pouting and not daring to protest. Seeing that the man was about to leave after putting on his coat, she was a little reluctant to send him to the door, Lin Yize touched her head and said, "Go back to the house after eating and rest for a while, remember to take medicine, I will go to the company to deal with some things." β
The elevator door closed, picked up the mobile phone and found Lin Yize's assistant to send a message asking him to help prepare lunch for Lin Yize, Fu Zhining once again finished the meal ordered by the man in advance. I don't know the taste of food, maybe I have a fever and lose my appetite, and the hearty dishes are always less flavorful, but they are not as delicious as Chef Lin's.
ββββ Dividing Lineββββ
In the afternoon, she asked Jiang Zhuo to see the filming location, this semester's professional class requires students to complete a small movie in a group, they plan to shoot a suspense drama, Jiang Zhuo found a photography base in the film and television city and an abandoned building in the wild, the two of them plan to choose a place to settle down as soon as possible, and focus their main time and energy on script revision and shooting.
Jiang Zhuo picked her up and went straight to the abandoned factory in the suburbs, on the way back to Fu Zhining, he found that Lin Yize had missed several calls, pressed back to call the other party but was on the phone, she directly sent a video invitation to the past, and the man quickly connected, and a handsome face that looked like Pan An appeared in front of the camera with a frowning brow, "Where is it?" β
She put on a Bluetooth headset and replied: "I went to the suburbs to see the shooting site, there is no signal in the mountains, is there anything urgent?" β
Lin Yize went back to the apartment after dealing with the bidding, who knew that the little girl disappeared, and he didn't answer the phone, so he hurriedly sent someone to check the surveillance video and found that the person was picked up by Jiang Zhuo. The man's cold eyes were about to freeze the mobile phone screen, Fu Zhining naturally couldn't imagine how nervous Lin Yize was when he couldn't contact her, and went through all the dangerous possibilities such as disappearance and kidnapping in his mind, and regretted that he didn't press a locator on her mobile phone at the beginning.
The man on the other end of the phone didn't speak for a long time, and Fu Zhining didn't dare to hang up, "We are on our way to the film and television city", she turned her head and glanced at Jiang Zhuo beside her, "Jiang Zhuo and I will probably be able to go back before dark." β
"Stay safe and come back early." After confirming the safety of the little girl, Lin Yize hung up the video directly.
Jiang Zhuo, who was driving, noticed that the co-pilot had a slightly strange expression, and asked curiously, "Your brother is looking for you?" β
"Just ask, he cares about me so much lately, it makes me feel upset."
Fu Zhining, no matter how stupid he was, saw Lin Yize's changes, he was not so cold, and even put down his work to take care of her from morning to night to give her lessons, which is really not like what Lin Yize can do as a workaholic. recalled that every time they went to dinner on a "formal date" a few years ago, he would hastily eat two bites and leave early after settling the bill, eager to live in the Lin Group every day.
Jiang Zhuo has an eldest brother in the family, and the two brothers get along very well, and after listening to it, he asked puzzledly, "It's better to care than to be distant and indifferent, why aren't you so happy?" Fu Zhining was more surprised than unhappy, she couldn't explain it in detail and had to fool the past, "It's just that I didn't adapt for a while." β
Fu Zhining is happy, since the death of her parents, she moved out of the old house, first, she was afraid of seeing things and thinking about people, and secondly, the house was too big and would always seem lonely, so she chose to live in a small apartment, and occasionally went to the school dormitory to live. The apartment is not very large, but it is still empty, and over time she gets used to it. Now there is suddenly one more person in the room, a pair of slippers in the shoe cabinet, and an extra pair of chopsticks on the dining table, and even Lin Yize seems to occupy more places in her heart.
Although it was only two short days, it brought her a touch of home warmth again.
At sunset, the city was enveloped in glow, and they drove back to the city from the film and television base to find a restaurant. The dishes were all on the table, and the two were discussing the final venue choice, and Fu Zhining didn't notice the man approaching behind him at all.
Zhou Mingjie invited everyone to gather in the evening, and by the way, they tasted the top blue lobster and Belon oysters that Yuehaiju flown from France in the morning. Lin Yize caught the figure of the little girl before she came out of the company and entered the private room, she kept talking with the person opposite seriously, Jiang Zhuo recognized the big brother at a glance, smiled and raised his hand to say hello, Lin Yize didn't wait for Fu Zhining to return to the photo face, and went directly to the second floor.
After a while, a waiter brought a plate of seafood, "Hello, this is what Mr. Zhou invited the two of you to taste." Jiang Zhuo couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the rare top-notch ingredients, "Your eldest brother's friends are also very good to you!" β
Fu Zhining knew that it must have been sent by Lin Yize, she rarely eats seafood, but she also tasted a few bites, there is a reason why rich people like to spend high prices to buy fresh and rare top-quality ingredients, lobster meat is sweet, fat and tender, it is really delicious in the world.
In the private room, Zhou Mingjie poured wine for Lin Yize, raised his glass and teased, "Today, I, Zhou, will not hesitate to pay out of my own pocket for your love, and one day if you finally become a family, you will remember my kindness." The ingredients he had waited for a long time to order were taken away with plates and bowls, and Zhou Mingjie just chirped and tasted.
"Don't pretend, I haven't seen you eat less for three days." Lin Yize took a sip of wine and punctured his hypocrisy, "If you want to eat, someone will send it to you tomorrow." Zhou Mingjie patted him on the shoulder and called him a good brother, and a few friends on the side were very curious about Lin Yize's unprecedented initiative, "Mr. Lin, are you tempted by your little fiancΓ©e?" β
The man's silence was considered an admitation, after all, he had never hated Fu Zhining, and now that he knew his intentions, he didn't have to hide it.
Zhou Mingjie was bold enough to ask him directly, "Then you still let your younger sibling go on a date with her classmate downstairs!" I think it's interesting for that young man to deal with Miss, Mr. Lin is really the prime minister's belly in the face of a rival in love. β
Although Lin Yize said that he couldn't get used to Jiang Zhuo, a kid who sticks to Fu Zhining every day, in the final analysis, he is a classmate, and he can't interfere with other people's normal friends before he gets in the position, not to mention that the little girl attaches so much importance to freedom. Recently, Fu Zhining's attitude towards him has finally eased, he doesn't want to light the fire, the two of them are staring under their noses, Jiang Zhuo is a son of a famous family, but he is well-behaved, not like he will do anything out of the ordinary, as long as the little girl has no mind, he doesn't plan to deal with it.
Speaking of love rivals, Ji Luochuan is tricky. He provoked himself several times, and now he is in charge of the Fu family's industry and is deeply trusted by Fu Zhining, if he wants to develop a relationship with Fu Zhining in the future, he will be a greater threat to himself.
Yesterday a man came to pick it up, and today another man came to pick it up, the little girl's peach blossoms can't help but be a little too vigorous, so I really have to ask my mother to find a master to do it, cut off these annoying branches and branches, and repair them well.
Everyone saw that he didn't speak and didn't ask any more, and someone popped up, "Brother Zhou, what's the recent situation between you and your little star?" Zhou Mingjie quickly glanced at Lin Yize, squeezed his eyebrows and motioned to the other party to change the topic, "It's nothing, it's all those reporters who are full of food and idle chasing after the wind." β
Since the last night charm opening fight, Song Yuhan and Zhou Mingjie have been involved in a relationship, he was originally interested in seeing the color, but when he thought that he was a friend of a good brother's wife, he restrained a little, and the reporter who didn't know where secretly took a photo and put it on the gossip tabloid, he was not afraid, but the little star was affected by the scandal and ignored him for several days.
Lin Yize pretended not to hear it, and ate by himself, Zhou Mingjie quickly changed the topic, everyone said some gossip, and dispersed when they were full of wine and food.
When he went downstairs, the dining table by the window had been cleaned and covered with a brand new tablecloth, and he estimated that Fu Zhining was probably going back at this time. Lin Yize stood in the parking lot and lit a cigarette, the subtle fire burned in the dark night, the breeze blew the smoke everywhere, and a woman's light cough came from behind him.
He turned around and found Fu Zhining standing behind him, subconsciously stepping on the cigarette butt, and his dark pupils were secretly dissatisfied in the dead silence, "Jiang Zhuo didn't send you back?" β
Obviously he was still approachable in the morning, but after hanging up the video call, it turned into an iceberg, and it was really strange that it was cloudy and changeable. Fu Zhining pursed his lips, digesting an astonishing idea.
- Mr. Lin is jealous!
