Chapter Ninety-Four: Heartless
Not really.
When Yi Huaixian raised his hand just now, Shen Yurou saw the pair of jeweled cufflinks on his sleeve, which she had given him as a birthday gift before.
How good it feels to be cherished for the gifts she gave, she thought, is similar to how she feels now.
It was taken seriously.
Yi Huai first saw that she stopped talking, twisted his eyebrows, and said, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yanrou shook her head: "It's nothing." ”
After eating, He used to call him, saying that Lu Zhen was coming over and needed him to go over, and Lu Zhen was looking for him at this time, as if there was something urgent.
Shen Yanrou heard him talk about the content of the phone call, and understood that he probably had something to do, so she asked him to go over first, and she went back alone, anyway, it was not very far, it was nearby.
Yi Huai first insisted on sending her back first, and then back to the office, as she said, it was very close, don't worry.
Shen Yanrou said yes.
The two of them left the restaurant one after the other, and after they left, Chi Helin also retracted his gaze and ate in silence, his mind no longer on this meal.
Zhou Miao saw that she was absent-minded and said, "It seems that I am not attractive enough, and Miss Chi's attention is not on me." ”
"Mr. Zhou is joking, how dare I, Mr. Zhou is a well-known amorous person, to accept this charm, there are many people who think about you, I don't dare to rob so many people. ”
Zhou Miao said: "Nonsense, where are so many people, I think Miss Chi is, so beautiful, there must be many suitors." That Mr. Yi, shouldn't he have any lingering love-hate relationship with Miss Chi?"
Chi Enlin's face changed, and he said, "I want to too, but it's a pity that Mr. Yi doesn't give me a chance." ”
"Just kidding, just kidding, Miss Chi, don't take it seriously. If Mr. Yi doesn't give him a chance, Miss Chi might as well consider considering other people. There are men who are better than Mr. Yi, you look at Jiang Cheng, do you have any young talents in your eye, I will see if I know him, if I know, Zhou will definitely be willing to help Miss Chi pull a line. ”
Chi Helin smiled: "If I don't give Mr. Zhou face, wouldn't it be unreasonable, then I will believe what Mr. Zhou said, you want to help." ”
"That's for sure. ”
......
When Shen Yanrou walked out of the restaurant, she glanced back and saw Zhou Miao and Chi Helin sitting together eating, when did the two of them meet?
And Yi Huaixian didn't say anything, so she didn't say anything.
Yi Huai sent her downstairs first and left, and touched her hair before leaving, her movements were a little gentle, as if she was addicted to touching.
Shen Yanrou stayed where she was for a while and went upstairs, it was too cold outside and the wind was strong.
Yi Huai returned to the office first after ten minutes, Lu Zhen waited for a while, he hadn't eaten dinner when he came, just what was the use of ordering food, Lu Zhen ordered it with He Yong, after ordering, Lu Zhen asked what was the use, and said, "Huai Xian doesn't need to eat? Where did he go?"
"The boss went out to eat, and he is probably coming back soon. ”
After waiting for about ten minutes, Yi Huai came back first, and Lu Zhen saw that Yi Huai came back to the office with him first, and said, "He Zhu, call me when the takeaway arrives." ”
Lu Zhen entered the office and closed the door by the way, there were only two of them in the office, Yi Huai took off his coat first, and said, "I told you last time, there has been no news since the driver was taken away by my superiors." Afterwards, I went to my superior, and he made an excuse that he was still investigating, and it was inconvenient for me to see him. ”
Lu Zhen also felt a little strange, Deputy Zhong's position was special, and he was many levels higher than him, he had to obey the orders of his superiors, there was no way, there was no news that people were taken away like this.
Yi Huai sat on the sofa first and said, "It means that the person behind the driver has a lot of power?"
Lu Zhen said: "You can think like this, otherwise you won't be able to summon Deputy Zhong." ”
"What kind of person is Vice Zhong?"
"I used to be my master, and he didn't have a big position, he did things at a glance, and his ability was good, but sometimes he was too dead-eyed. We don't work together anymore, and I don't know much about it anymore. ”
"I don't know much, why do you say that?"
Lu Zhen grabbed his hair: "It's not this time. When I arrested the driver, I arrested him with a fake car, but you also know that this is also a trivial matter, and not long after the interrogation, Deputy Zhong came, which is a bit of a coincidence. ”
"Do you say where did they get the news, or do you say we're being watched? ”
Yi Huai first said: "When you are tracking the driver, he will have the opportunity to report the news. ”
"You have a point. That's really my negligence, I didn't expect him to be so bold alone, it seems that the people behind him have a background and can support them. "All these qualities have been thought about, but Deputy Zhong came to stir up the situation, he really thought that this driver was some kind of ordinary criminal, and the water turned out to be so deep.
Yi Huai said first: "Next, let's not move, I'll help you investigate, you pretend not to know, and cooperate with your Zhong deputy to act." ”
"Okay, think about the takeout has also arrived, I haven't eaten after a busy day, and I have to wait for you for half an hour to come to you after finishing work early. ”
Yi Huai said first: "Next time, say it in advance, call my mobile phone directly." ”
"Hopefully. ”
The takeaway also came at this time, and He Yonggang wanted to call Lu Zhen out, but he was afraid of disturbing them to talk about things.
As he spoke, Lu Zhen came out of the office, He Yong stretched out his hand and handed it to him, saying, "Fortunately, I don't need to shout, I will disturb you to talk to the boss later." ”
"It's okay, Ahuai is not unkind. Lu Zhen took the takeaway and unpacked it, like a starving ghost reincarnated, gobbling it up but not embarrassed.
He Yong bought two cans of Coke and came back, handed him a bottle, and said, "No, Brother Lu, you have been hungry for a few days, eat like this, don't worry, it's not enough to shout." ”
"It's too late, I have to hurry up and go back to do errands, there's still something to do. ”
He was dumbfounded, why is there such a big gap between the two brothers of the Lu family, Lu Yue is a noble son who is high, and Lu Zhen is like an illegitimate son who has been abused, he only dares to think in his heart, but he doesn't dare to say it in front of Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen finished eating, cleaned up the garbage, and left.
He Yong sighed again, the two brothers of the Lu family are really different.
......
Zhou Miao and Chi Helin left after eating, Chi Chillin's only son took a taxi alone, and in the car, he took out his mobile phone to call up Yi Huaixian's mobile phone number, she didn't dial for a long time, and she was very hesitant, because Yi Huaixian would not answer her call.
Because it is clear, it is hesitant.
No one knows Yi Huai better than her, but she can't understand why he chose a girl like Shen Yanrou.
has no net worth background, where is she worthy of Yi Huaixian, and under such conditions, where does Yi Huaixian fancy her?
She just couldn't understand it at all.
Chi Helin thought about it, and still called Old Man Yi, although it was not Old Man Yi who answered the phone, but the housekeeper of the Yi family, she also changed her clothes and flattered her, and said, "Uncle, it's me, Chi Quelin." At night, I'm sorry to disturb at this time, I want to ask Grandpa Yi if it is convenient to answer the phone?"
The housekeeper said, "The old man is ready to rest, if there is no urgency, come back tomorrow." ”
Chi Celin said: "Uncle, I have something I want to ask Grandpa Yi, but I'm not in a hurry now, so I won't bother." ”
"Okay, goodbye, Miss Chi. ”
The housekeeper who hung up the phone here said to the old man who was sitting on the chessboard and playing chess with him, "Miss Chi's phone." ”
"What is she looking for me?"
"I didn't say it. ”
Old Man Yi pondered for a while and said, "I don't have anything to do when I call at this point, why do you make the old man happy." ”
The housekeeper poured a cup of hot water, put it in front of the old man, and said, "Miss Chi may not have this meaning, old man, don't think too much." ”
"Don't think too much about it, I don't know what kind of person she is, I'm not stupid. Old Man Yi said, "Do you think I'm old and confused?"
"The old man is angry, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you're angry. ”
Yi Lao snorted again and said, "This Chi Zenlin has disappeared for so many years, and there is no news, and now that the person is back, I don't think it's a good thing." ”
So at that birthday party, Yi Lao didn't care much about Chienlin.
It's just an ordinary junior.
The housekeeper said, "Old man, don't think about it so much, rest and don't make time." ”
"Well, you should rest early, you don't have to take care of it here, go and rest. ”
......
Chi Zenlin didn't call again after hanging up the phone, but for her, if she wanted to re-enter the Yi family, she had to get the old man's recognition, so Yi Lao had to spend her time trying to please his old man again, when the accident happened back then, Yi Lao didn't know it for the first time, and it was only later that she found out.
Zhou Miao would send a text message asking her to go to the sea on the weekend, and this boss seemed to be more idle than her, either eating, drinking or having fun.
Chi Zenlin replied yes.
Since Yi Huai didn't give her a chance first, she still couldn't give up after thinking about it.
It's coming to the New Year soon, the new year, I hope it will go smoothly, and I hope that her relationship with Yi Huaixian can be freed up, and I hope he won't worry about it anymore.
As for that Shen Yanrou, it is impossible for her to ignore it, she is just a woman who Yi Huai wants first, and after this freshness, it will become a thing of the past.
This is true of men's inferiority.
......
In the blink of an eye, on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the street was lively, Shen Yurou was lying on the window looking out of the window, the lights were on everywhere, and the neighbors next door were pasted with festive couplets.
Yi Huaixian also said that he would come back today, and come back to pick her up and go back to the old mansion for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Yi Huai was afraid that she would be nervous, so he gave her a preventive injection a week in advance, and when the time came, she would definitely go back to the old mansion after eating the New Year.
Shen Yurou is mentally prepared, who let Yi Huaixian's identity be here, even if she is a little scared and at a loss, she has to face it.
She was not afraid of Old Man Yi, but of the relatives of the Yi family, and his birthday banquet didn't seem to have passed long, as if it was still yesterday, so when Old Yi mentioned the matter of the two of them in public, she was still very afraid.
This year has passed in the blink of an eye, and at this time last year, she was still in the Shen family, but things are not people, and the Shen family has become farther and farther away from her, and it has gradually become a bubble.
She didn't have much time to sigh, so she quickly cleaned up and waited for Yi Huai to come and pick her up first.
After more than ten minutes, Yi Huaixian's phone called, saying that he was already waiting downstairs and she could come down.
Shen Yurou hurriedly took her things downstairs, she was carrying a large bag and a small bag, all of which were taken back to give Yi Lao some supplements, after all, it was the New Year, and it was not good to go back empty-handed.
Yi Huaixian saw the things she was carrying in her hand, asked, and learned that she had specially prepared them, Yi Huaixian smiled helplessly, he had prepared gifts, but now he was afraid of hitting her, Yi Huaixian didn't say anything, took the things in her hand and put them in the trunk.
This time he drove by himself, and He Yong also went home for the New Year on vacation, and his office was also on vacation.
There are also more cars on the street during the New Year, a little traffic jam, it took an hour more than usual to arrive at the Yi House, when they arrived, the door of the Yi House was already full of cars, and there seemed to be a lot of people coming.
It's not the first time I've come, Shen Yanrou suddenly became nervous, her lips opened slightly and let out hot air, it's not the first time I've experienced a crowded scene like this, but I'm still scared, I panicked in my heart for no reason, and the rhythm of my heartbeat is out of order.
Yi Huai held her hand first, rubbed it, and said jokingly: "It's too late, there's no chance to regret it." ”
So saying, he led her into the house.
Shen Yan raised her neck, afraid that she would look lacking in confidence, thinking that Yi Huai was there first, no matter what, he would take care of her, and she had nothing to fear.
The house is unusually lively, there are a few children in the hall eating candy and watching TV, seeing Yi Huai coming in first, they all shout and shout, they are all called by juniors to elders, and Shen Yanrou also heard one clearly, it is a cousin.
He has a lot of relatives, Shen Yanrou can't recognize them all, the last birthday banquet has already come, she didn't remember a few, and now there is another group, and they are all children, and it is even more difficult for her to remember.
Their elders seem to be upstairs, and only the aunt will be there to take care of the children.
After a simple greeting, Yi Huai took Shen Yanrou upstairs to see Old Man Yi first.
When he went upstairs, Shen Yanrou asked him in a low voice, "Do you have any brothers and sisters?"
"Nope. ”
"Then why are so many relatives ......"
"I don't know any of them, and I don't know how to answer them when you ask me. ”
"You don't know each other?"
Yi Huai first said confidently: "I don't know, I don't like children, for me, they all look the same, I shouldn't have told you, I have a slight face blindness." ”
"......" she understood, and in an instant she understood.
If all the relatives of the Yi family come, then Yi Junyi and Xu Jia should also come.
Just when the housekeeper came downstairs and ran into Yi Huaixian, Yi Huaixian took the initiative to say hello to the housekeeper: "Uncle." ”
Shen Yurou lowered her head: "Happy New Year, Uncle Housekeeper." ”
The housekeeper smiled on his face: "Huaixian, Miss Xiao Shen, Happy New Year." It's been a hard journey, and there are traffic jams everywhere on the road today, so are you also stuck in traffic on the way here?"
"Blocked. Fortunately, I didn't come late and went out early. ”
"The old man is talking about things in the study, do you want to see the old man?"
"Yes. ”
"Let's go, I'll take you. ”
......
So while walking and chatting, the housekeeper said how many relatives came today, this year's New Year is unusual, and it is much more lively than before.
I don't know if it's because of Shen Anthral.
This is also what the housekeeper uncle joked, there is no malice.
Shen Yanrou was already embarrassed, what did this have to do with her, although she knew that the housekeeper was joking.
Yi Huaixian followed the words of the housekeeper's uncle: "I think so, she is probably my lucky star." ”
Shen Anju: "......" doesn't need to wear such a high hat for her, she is afraid of heights.
There were still several elders sitting in the study, and one of them was a relative from Yi Huaixian's mother's side.
According to the seniority, Yi Huai had to call his uncle first.
But Yi Huai saw the uncle first, but he was just very cold and didn't open his eyes, as if he didn't see it, but only shouted Yi Lao, and no one else shouted.
Old Man Yi knew that something was wrong when he looked at him, he didn't call anyone.
The butler said, "Old man, then I'll go down first." ”
Yi Lao waved his hand, then looked at Yi Huaixian and said, "Huaixian, you came just in time, this is the elder on your mother's side, it's your uncle, remember?"
The old man, who was called his uncle, also stood up, and his age was actually not much different from Yi Lao, which showed that his generation was actually very high.
But Yi Huai didn't look at him first, nor did he call anyone, his face was indifferent, which was in obvious contrast to his appearance just now.
The uncle's eyes saw Shen Yanrou standing next to him, his eyes fell on the hands of the two people holding each other, paused, and said, "Huaixian, this is Miss Shen?" I heard your grandfather say just now, if your mother is still here, I don't know how happy you are to teach your girlfriend. ”
Yi Huai replied first: "Even if it is." ”
In fact, this atmosphere is visible to the naked eye.
Uncle also knew in his heart why Yi Huaixian had such an attitude, and he was mentally prepared before he came.
Yi Huai shook Shen Anthral's hand before coming back to his senses, and then said to Shen Anrou: "You go out first and wait for me, I have something to tell grandpa." ”
He didn't want his bad side to be seen by Shen Yurou, at least not for now.
Shen Yurou paused, a little shocked, but didn't say anything, she listened to him very much, so she walked out.
Shen Yanrou walked out of the study, closed the door, and looked at the closed door of the study with a complicated expression, she suddenly didn't know what to do, and she didn't know why Yi Huaixian had changed as a person.
The aura around his body is heavy, and his expression is also extremely serious and tense.
In the study, Old Man Yi sat on the main seat, holding a cane, and said, "Huaixian, no matter how you say that your uncle is your elder and your mother's elder, don't have this attitude." The past is gone. ”
Yi Huaixian still had an indifferent face, pulled out a chair and sat down, and didn't say anything.
Uncle said: "Huaixian, I also understand your feelings, but after all, it has been so long, we are all relatives, don't have this attitude." ”
Old Man Yi said: "Don't force Huaixian, what happened back then was that you were wrong, and he still remembers it, and he can't say that he is wrong." Besides, I don't have a son. ”
"I'm sorry, old man Yi, I also came this time to solve the problem of the two families. I don't want to bring up the past. ”
