Chapter XXVII
In mid-December, it snowed heavily in Lincheng, which had not been seen in a century.
Ji's family, Mr. Ji Ming died of a sudden cerebral infarction, the Ji family held a grand funeral, the business, political and black and white circles went to a lot of people, groups of mourning crows hovered in the sky, the road side was full of black pressure parked with all kinds of luxury cars, and countless upper-class people came to mourn.
For three days, Ji Luochuan never left the mourning hall, from morning to night in the filial piety, his second brother has been pampered since he was a child, he couldn't bear the loneliness and simply gave up creating the image of filial piety and virtuous grandsons, and asked for a stick of incense in front of the spirit every day and left, and the eldest brother has been staying here and has never left.
Probably because he was really heartbroken and had no intention of fighting for the inheritance, the old family unexpectedly did not harass him, only the second uncle's family was in a hurry to write their incompetence on their faces.
Since Ji Luochuan was attacked, he hid in the shadows and claimed to be recuperating, stirring up disputes behind his back to turn the Ji family against each other. Just when the wind was on his side, he didn't expect his grandfather to die overnight, and the family was grief-stricken in front of outsiders on the surface, but in fact they were trying to get an extra piece of the pie to snatch the family property, and the usual fig leaf disappeared with the death of the old man.
After all, before the will is made public, everything is still uncertain.
Fu Zhining attended with Lin's mother, and Ji Luochuan's parents flew back from abroad overnight after getting the news, but unfortunately they only saw a stiff corpse when they arrived at the hospital. Mother Lin and his mother were sisters who knew each other when they were young, and they hadn't seen each other for many years, and the two of them sat on the side and had endless words.
Ji Luochuan, who was greeting guests, dyed his black hair, his face was pale, his mental state was a little poor, and he looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness. Fu Zhining always knew that his body was fine, but he was also more worried at the moment.
Fu Zhining sat on a chair and observed the crowd of people, feeling that someone seemed to be staring at her all the time, she subconsciously turned around and found a lady not far away looking at her with a smile, it was Ji Luochuan's aunt who met at the door of the hospital ward that day.
She nodded politely, but she didn't expect the other party to approach and directly pull her to the empty corridor outside the hall, Fu Zhining was on guard against the woman in front of her who was quite deep in the city and the two biao-shaped bodyguards behind her, thinking about finding an excuse to leave quickly.
"Miss Fu, I won't go around in circles with you, let's get straight to the point. I know that you are interested in Luo Chuan, I can see that the child also has affection for you, if you want to marry, I can help you. The woman's inexplicable proposal made Fu Zhining feel strange.
She quickly rejected the other party, "I still have a marriage contract, so I don't bother you." β
"How can the Lin family be compared to the Ji family, I know you don't like the young master of the Lin family, don't worry, it's not difficult for their family to take the initiative to dissolve the marriage contract." The woman was confident and didn't take Lin's family business seriously.
What woman who has no backing or wants to climb to the top with her husband's family would refuse such a tempting offer?
That must be Miss Fu.
Fu Zhining politely agreed, "Thank you for your proposal, I will consider it carefully." β
This is the second child of the Ji family using her to win over Ji Luochuan, so she pretended to have the intention of marrying into the Ji family to further probe the woman, "Brother Luochuan is a grandson, besides, Aunt Ji has broken with the main family for many years, can I really live better if I marry in the future than going to the Lin family?" β
The woman understood the meaning of her words and replied bluntly: "If you can persuade Luo Chuan to join forces with us to get the equity of the group, we will naturally not treat you badly, when Luo Chuan is the major shareholder, you will naturally be the wife of the Ji family, and the status is not something that the Lin family can give you." β
What a verbal promise to deceive the ghost!
Fu Zhining secretly complained in her heart that she didn't make a draft when she painted a big cake, squinted her eyes and smiled slightly, deliberately holding the woman's arm and saying cordially: "Now that Luochuan's brother's grandfather has just died, he must be very sad." In the next few days, I will find an opportunity to persuade him more, and if there is anything I can do my best, you can contact me at any time. β
The woman saw that she was younger than Ji Luochuan and was more foolish, and she also pretended to be sincere and persuaded for a long time, until someone slipped into the corridor to smoke and left in a hurry.
Stretch your mind to her, since you can't avoid this troubled water, then the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it.
Fu Zhining relayed all the events to Ji Luochuan that night, and the man temporarily asked her to stay still and continue to deal with her, telling her to pay attention to safety. The people of the Ji family even dared to kill their nephews, and now that Ji Ming is dead, if he is really crazy, it will be a bloody storm.
There is no airtight wall in this world, there are too many people staring at them with ill intentions, no matter how cautious Fu Zhining is, she is still discovered, I don't know who deliberately sent the photo of her and Ji Luochuan's secret meeting to Lin Yize.
Not long after Fu Zhining left with Lin's mother in the car, Ji Luochuan received a call from Lin Yize, and the smell of gunpowder between the men was full, "Ji Luochuan, no matter what you do, stay away from Zhining." β
"Don't worry, I won't hurt her. As for who can capture her heart, let's each have our own abilities. β
Ji Luochuan hung up the phone, took a cigarette from the cigarette case and put it in his mouth, fiddling with the golden coin lighter in his hand, the flames flickered and jumped up, and finally disappeared into the night.
ββββ Dividing Lineββββ
The next day, as soon as Ke Rui went to work, he received several suspicious packages, which were all blood-stained dolls, using blood bags that were professional in filming.
He reported it to Lin Yize as soon as possible, and Fu Zhining relieved him that this is a common thing in entertainment companies, maybe it was sent by a black fan of a star to threaten him, so there is no need to make a fuss. During the special period, Lin Yize did not dare to relax his vigilance and took someone to arrest the little girl.
"I don't want to move to live with you!"
For the sake of her safety, Lin Yize temporarily decided to take the little girl to his side. However, Fu Zhining made it clear that he didn't want to move to his house to live together, who knows what will happen if a lonely man and a widow are in the same room, and they are not officially together.
The man coaxed Fu Zhining for a long time with good words, but unfortunately the little girl just didn't agree, and couldn't help but raise her voice a notch, "Don't you know how deep the water of the Ji family is, your parents handed you over to me before they died, and I have the obligation to take care of you and protect you." β
Lin Yize refused to negotiate, and the more Fu Zhining listened, the more angry he became, understanding that the man cared about his own safety, but he was dissatisfied with his domineering behavior, so he simply stuck his hands on the sofa with his chest and did not move, putting on a posture of no compromise.
The man and her looked at each other for a long time, and no one refused to back down, and finally Lin Yize directly carried the person on his shoulders and took it away, "You don't have to go home to get the things, just buy a new one." β
"You put me down! Lin Yize, you bastard! β
Sending Fu Zhining home, Lin Yize called Zhou Mingjie and asked him to send more reliable people over. He informed Kerui: "From now on, all personnel entering the company must be strictly investigated, and non-internal employees are not allowed to enter, and once any suspicious person is found, they will be detained first." β
"Okay, Mr. Lin." Kerui quickly fed back the latest investigation results to him, "I went to check the sender's information, and the other party used a fake identity, the address was an uninhabited demolition area, and there was no camera to capture the sender's appearance. However, the house had recently been acquired by a company for construction. β
Kerui sent the name of the company and the name of the legal person, Lin Yize looked familiar, and specially asked the assistant to check it, and sure enough, clues were found inside. The real person in charge of this engineering company is the younger brother of the second aunt, in other words, it should be that their family is desperate and puts their minds on Fu Zhining.
As for why Ji Luochuan didn't cooperate with them to bring down the boss's family together, he didn't have time to care, even if the Ji family fought to a dead end, he was not interested. But if they dare to stretch out their hands to Fu Zhining, he will have to take care of it, and Lin Yize is most assured of the safety of the little girl.
Fu Zhining was forcibly brought back by him, even under his nose, but the man was still not at ease. Lin Yize didn't allow her to go to school alone, and found several bodyguards to follow her 24 hours a day, and Xinghui's work was all taken care of by Ke Rui, and she couldn't go anywhere except for the school and Lin Yize's house all day long.
The little girl had a very stubborn temper, and ignored him with a cold face for several days, Lin Yize went home from work, Fu Zhining went back to the guest bedroom and locked the door, leaving the angry back to herself. He knew that although it was inappropriate to do this, it would be chaotic to care, but it was better than letting the people of the Ji family contact her.
Lin Yize participated in the project finalization meeting with a cold face in the company, and went home from work like an arrow.
On the way back, Lin Yize deliberately went to the little girl's favorite dessert shop to buy matcha mille-feuille and strawberry cake, and the cashier recognized him, and kindly presented a couple of tableware, wishing him and Fu Zhining happiness.
It's a pity that it's not very happy now, and Mr. Lin is bitter.
As soon as the man entered the house, Fu Zhining disappeared into the living room, Lin Yize lowered his posture and knocked on the door to let her come out to eat cake. After all, the little girl couldn't resist the temptation of food, and for the sake of the cake, she rewarded President Lin Da with a face.
Fu Zhining loves matcha, sitting at the dinner table and eating a moderately sweet mille-feuille, seeing the kitten eating obediently, Mr. Lin took off his three-piece suit with peace of mind, tied an apron and went to the kitchen to wash his hands and make soup virtuously.
Maybe he felt that eating alone was unfriendly, or Fu Zhining wanted to ease the relationship, the little girl forked a red strawberry stained with cream and ran over and stuffed it into his mouth, although he always didn't like the desserts that these little girls loved, but he also obediently took a bite.
Lin Yize had never eaten such a sweet strawberry in his life, and the sweet and delicious juice almost flowed down his throat to his heart.
Sure enough, the feeling of being fed is just different.
The two of them took a step back, and they passed the "volcanic eruption period" smoothly, and after eating a meal, they disappeared awkwardly without a trace.
Fu Zhining was holding his laptop to write his homework on the thick carpet after dinner, and was picked up by Lin Yize and thrown on the luxurious sofa, and he accompanied the little girl to read the document contract by his side. The huge room was quiet, except for the sound of crackling and tapping on the keyboard, only the sound of paper turning, and the two of them focused on each other without disturbing each other.
At nine o'clock, Fu Zhining's mobile phone rang, she glanced at the caller ID, stood up and entered the guest room.
"Hey, Brother Luochuan."
Ji Luochuan is very concerned about her safety in a few words, although Fu Zhining and Lin Yize are not considered to live together, but living under the same roof inevitably makes people think about it, she has no choice but to tell the truth: "I ...... Now living in Mr. Lin's house, you don't have to worry. β
The other party was obviously a little stunned by this answer, "That's good." Fu Zhining chatted with him a few more words before hanging up the phone.
In the living room, Lin Yize kept staring at the page of the contract, Fu Zhining couldn't ignore the man with a straight face, leaned over and leaned on his shoulder and sneered: "You have been reading this page for so long, why haven't you turned the page?" β
Fu Zhining boldly poked Lin Yize's cheek lightly with his finger, "Ignore me, I'm just making a phone call with Brother Luo Chuan, and he's worried about my safety." The man turned to the next page, his eyes always fell on the paper, ignoring Fu Zhining's teasing.
Seeing that the man was silent, she continued: "I told him that I live in your house. Hearing this, the man's face softened slightly, and he simply replied with a "um" pretending to be generous.
Fu Zhining looked at him so stingy, it took a lot of effort to endure it before she laughed, she took the initiative to put her arm on the man, raised her head and whispered in Lin Yize's ear, "You won't ...... Be jealous! β
Mr. Lin was punctured, and naturally he refused to admit it.
Lin Yize's ears were too sensitive, and they were dyed crimson in an instant, he turned his head to avoid the little girl's "harassment", and the little cat seemed to have explored a magical world, pulling at the corner of his clothes and refusing to let go.
Miss Fu kept asking the jealous man, but the jealous Mr. Lin bit his lip and refused to admit it, and finally the two rolled onto the woolen carpet in a fuss.
Fu Zhining showed two rows of neat teeth and laughed, and the puffy little face was filled with a bright smile, Lin Yize didn't dare to use force in his hands for fear of hurting her, so he viciously blocked the little mouth and kissed it like a punishment, sweeping like a storm.
The man's strong breath touched the girl's soft lips, and sparks flew between her lips and teeth, and the breath that only belonged to the other party occupied each other in an instant, and the little girl's body couldn't stop trembling, and she fell weakly into Lin Yize's arms. This is a thousand times more tempting than strawberries, and if he can ask the other party for a fragrant kiss every day, he would rather not eat strawberries for the rest of his life.
At the end of the kiss, Lin Yize's big hand rubbed Fu Zhining's back repeatedly to make her gradually calm down, "It seems that you have to practice a few more times before you can learn to ventilate." β
Fu Zhining, who was out of breath, picked up the pillow and threw it at the man who took advantage, Lin Yize quickly avoided the sweet attack of his fiancΓ©e, stood up and walked into the master bedroom with the little girl in his arms.
