Lin Zhixing always knew that her boyfriend's uncle, He Yanchen, was cold-hearted and unapproachable. She had heard that the man was noble, self-controlled, and did not associate with women.
...“…”
Lu Yao admitted his mistake in just three seconds, "Brother He, I was just kidding. I just think marriage is a matter between two people. I hope you can come!"
After she said this, she immediately hung up the voice call.
Lin Zhixing looked at He Yanchen curiously, "Lu Yao seems to be afraid of you?"
He Yanchen gripped the steering wheel with both hands. "Maybe it's because what she did before was too outrageous, and no one in her family could do anything about it. In the end, it was her brother who came to me."
"for example?"
"For example, running away with a male model and stealing the family's household registration book in order to get a marriage certificate."
He Yanchen said this casually.
Lin Zhixing's face was full of question marks.
She used to think Lu Yao was a very smart and intelligent little girl.
I didn't expect that he would do such an outrageous thing.
"Did you find them in advance?"
Lin Zhixing couldn't help but be curious.
He Yanchen then said, "No, after the two of them went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, they discovered that the legal marriage age for women is 20, not 18 as written in the novel."
Lin Zhixing was truly silent.
He Yanchen was afraid that she would think too much, so he said, "But she did study fashion design at a prestigious foreign university. If you don't like her design, we won't use it. I can just tell her."
"It's okay, let's see." Lin Zhixing said first, "But next week is not possible. I have to attend a year-end forum with the director on Tuesday and won't be back until the weekend. Let's wait until December."
He Yanchen was glad that the topic of Lu Yao's rebellion only went so far.
The follow-up to Lu Yao's rebellion that year was that when they found the two people, the male model wanted to drive away with Lu Yao and even hit Lu Heng.
After parking the car, he grabbed the male model and started fighting.
The Lu family did not sue that person afterwards, but sent him directly outside Southeast Asia.
I don’t know whether I’m dead or alive.
"Okay, then December." He Yanchen thought for a moment and asked, "Which city will your forum be held in?"
"In..." Lin Zhixing was about to answer, but suddenly thought of something, "You don't want to go, do you?"
“…”
"This is just an ordinary job. I'm going with Director Huo and will be back in about four or five days. I'll call you every day when I return to the hotel to check in. I'll let you know as soon as the return flight is booked. If you have time, please come pick me up. If not, I can come back on my own."
Lin Zhixing told his plan seriously.
He Yanchen followed him to the last meeting.
She doesn't want her man to find all kinds of excuses to go with her every time she goes on a business trip.
There was a brief silence in the car.
Lin Zhixing looked at the man and asked seriously, "He Yanchen, can you believe me? Believe that I only love you. I'm just going to a meeting. I don't know how to have a romantic relationship with anyone other than you."
She guessed that men were insecure.
Then she would give him a sense of security.
Starting from this time.
There was a longer silence in the carriage.
He Yanchen was driving, looking straight ahead, but he could clearly feel a signal clamoring in his brain.
I hope I can follow her and stay with her.
But, Lin Zhixing has already said this.
He also has a job.
He shouldn't go.
They still have a long time to go.
He couldn't look at her like this forever.
It wasn't until the car was almost at the door that He Yanchen said, "Okay, then I won't go. I'll pick you up when you come back."
"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as the return ticket is booked." Lin Zhixing said seriously, "I really hope you can come pick me up."
She felt that this little problem between them was not a big deal.
Their relationship will soon become normal.
-
Lin Zhixing's forum will be held from Wednesday to Friday in Yuncheng in the south.
She and Huo Yikang set off on Tuesday afternoon.
When boarding the plane, He Yanchen sent her to the airport.
As soon as the plane landed, Lin Zhixing sent a message to the man.
When we got to the hotel, we made another video call.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the two of them were in normal contact.
Until Friday...
During Lin Zhixing's afternoon tea break, he took a photo and sent it to He Yanchen.
One hour.
Two hours.
He Yanchen didn't reply until after seven o'clock in the evening.
Lin Zhixing then sent another WeChat message: [Are you busy? ]
Until eleven o'clock in the evening, the man still did not reply.
Lin Zhixing made a phone call.
After a minute of waiting, a cold system voice came into her ears from the receiver, "Hello, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please call again later..."
The night outside the window is as dark as ink, and a crescent moon hangs in the sky.
Lin Zhixing called again.
As the system tone of "No one answered" reached her ears again, a feeling of uneasiness inexplicably arose in her heart.
It can’t be…
What happened?
However, Lin Zhixing quickly denied this idea.
How could this happen?
He Yanchen has so many assets under his name and manages such a large company. He must be busy with work and has no time to reply to her.
Maybe tomorrow, we can get in touch.
Lin Zhixing comforted himself like this over and over again.
It wasn't until three or four in the morning, when the sky was just beginning to turn pale, that I started to feel a little sleepy...
There is one final meeting on Saturday morning.
She and Huo Yikang booked a flight for the afternoon.
Sitting in the meeting room that morning, Huo Yikang looked at Lin Zhixing's bloodshot eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Did you have insomnia last night? Or did you stay up late watching TV series?"
At Huo Yikang's age, there are basically only two reasons he can think of for young people staying up late.
Until this time, Lin Zhixing still had not received any message from He Yanchen.
She called the man's number.
The prompt is still "No one answered at the moment".
But Lin Zhixing didn't want to tell Huo Yikang about these private matters. She could only say, "I'm having a little insomnia."
"Have you seen too many talented people here these past two days?" Huo Yikang thought he understood her thoughts. "Actually, you're already very good. When I was your age, I had never been a lead surgeon."
"Um……"
Lin Zhixing's mind was in a mess, and he didn't listen carefully to what Huo Yikang said, so he just responded casually.
She had no intention of listening to the meeting in the morning.
Until the meeting ended, the two of them were on the way to the airport together...
Lin Zhixing couldn't hold his temper any longer and sent a voice message to Lu Yao.
She called several times, but Lu Yao didn't answer.
When she arrived at the airport, she tried again.
This time, Lu Yao answered the call, "Ms. Lin, is there something wrong?"
Her attitude was different from every time before, and it was a bit reluctant.
like……
She was very reluctant to call her.
