Chapter 99: Looking for Her in the Rain

Lin You's heart was undeniably moved, but she also thought of a problem.

"If it's Shanhai Park, there will definitely be many powerful companies bidding. So, Mr. Xu, do you think we have a chance?"

Xu Feng looked calm and answered with a sentence that Lin You could not refute.

"If we don't try, there's no chance. But if we do, there might be a glimmer of hope."

To put it bluntly, you just have to take a chance.

Isn’t Lin You also taking a chance by coming here today?

Xu Feng had been paying attention to Lin You's expression and raised an eyebrow to ask, "So, Ms. Lin... do you want to cooperate?"

Having made up his mind, Lin You showed his utmost sincerity.

"good."

She agreed so readily that Xu Feng was stunned.

Xu Feng: "I thought... you would negotiate terms with me."

Lin You smiled and said, "I believe Mr. Xu will not treat me unfairly."

"Oh?" Xu Feng shook his head and laughed, "I left such a good impression on Miss Lin? We just met for the first time, and you trust me so much?"

Lin You smiled meaningfully, "Although this is the first time we meet, Mr. Xu, don't forget that I'm a ten-year veteran of Castle in the Sky."

"Given Castle in the Sky's status in the industry, the commission rate should have been raised long ago, but Mr. Xu has been generous and has kept the commission rate the same over the years."

It is obvious that Xu Feng is not a person who only cares about interests.

Xu Feng nodded repeatedly, and after a long while, he suddenly asked, "Ms. Lin... do you have a boyfriend?"

The topic jumped too quickly and Lin You didn't react.

She asked suspiciously, "To get a job at Castle in the Air, you still have to check your marriage?"

Xu Feng waved his hands repeatedly, "No, I just feel that Miss Lin and I hit it off right away. If possible, can you give me..."

"I have a boyfriend."

Lin You answered very seriously.

Hearing this, Xu Feng was stunned at first, then he laughed heartily.

He did not feel unhappy at being rejected at all, but instead gave Lin You a thumbs up.

"Ms. Lin, you are so straightforward! These days, there are not many women who can be so outspoken."

His frankness also made Lin You feel relieved.

When the two finished their meal and walked out of the restaurant, the heavy rain was still there, with no sign of letting up.

Xu Feng drove the car, and in this situation, he naturally had to take Lin You back.

Lin You did not refuse and followed him into the car.

This rainstorm has caused a sense of panic in the entire city.

There is already water in many parts of the city, and police and firefighters are rushing around the streets to rescue people.

Xu Feng turned on the traffic radio and set up a hotline for missing persons.

If you can't contact someone, you can call or broadcast to expand the search area.

It usually takes twenty minutes to drive from the Western restaurant to Shangcheng Apartment, but today Xu Feng drove for an hour.

During this hour, they saw no less than five car accidents. The less serious ones only caused damage to the cars, while the most serious one had been covered with a white cloth and taken away by an ambulance.

In the face of nature, life is ultimately extremely fragile.

So when Xu Feng sent Lin You to the gate of the community, both of them felt a little heavy.

The rainstorm was getting heavier and heavier, and the radio broadcast news of several road closures. The authorities recommended that people who could find shelter nearby and not stay outside in such a dangerous situation.

Lin You hesitated for a moment and said to Xu Feng, "Mr. Xu, there's a pretty good hotel at the entrance of the community. How about... you stay there for one night?"

Xu Feng's eyes fell on the constantly shaking wipers. Even if they were turned to the highest gear, he still couldn't see the road in front of the windshield clearly.

He hesitated for a moment, "Okay."

After parking the car in the underground garage of the community, Lin You took Xu Feng towards the hotel.

This hotel is not luxurious, but the situation is special, so Xu Feng is not picky.

He handed his ID card to the front desk for registration.

The registrar glanced at Lin You, who was standing next to him, and asked, "Miss, do you want to live with us? If so, you need to register as well."

Lin You was about to speak when he suddenly felt a pain in his wrist.

Before she could react, she was pulled into someone's arms. Her nose hit the hard chest and she gasped in pain.

Lin You looked up and met Shi Jingyuan's eyes, which were as surging as the waves of the ocean.

"Lin You!"

Shi Jingyuan gritted his teeth and called her name, his face pale and cold.

He was wearing a soaking wet suit and his hair was dripping with water. He looked like he had just been washed in by a rainstorm.

Lin You didn't expect that he would be here.

Didn’t he…take a car to some other place with that young actress?

Thinking that he didn't answer her calls but was with other women, Lin You snorted coldly and tried to push him away.

But Shi Jingyuan held him tightly, and she tried to push him away, but failed.

Her little bit of strength was nothing to Shi Jingyuan.

He held her in his arms with a sharp gaze, his voice colder than the wind and rain outside.

"Lin You! You didn't answer the phone, you didn't go home! You came to the hotel with another man?"

Lin You was stunned for a moment, then smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

She raised her head and asked, "What qualifications do you have to question me? Didn't you go to the hotel with another woman?"

Shi Jingyuan: “…”

When their eyes met, the sparks that flew almost affected innocent people.

Xu Feng and the hotel registration staff didn't dare to say anything for a moment.

Unfortunately, Xu Feng still couldn't escape.

Shi Jingyuan turned his head and looked at him sharply, "Who are you?"

Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself that this man was soaked like a drowned rat, yet he was still so powerful, and... looked a little familiar?

Xu Feng: "Uh... I'm Miss Lin's future colleague. So, don't worry, we are innocent!"

Shi Jingyuan sneered, "That's better."

After he finished speaking, Shi Jingyuan pulled Lin You out of the hotel.

When they reached the door, he took off his suit and covered Lin You's head with it, then pulled her into the rain.

In the distance, Xu Feng watched the two of them leave, his expression constantly changing as he muttered:

"This person looks very familiar. Where have you seen him?"

*

The door was slammed shut.

Shi Jingyuan pulled off the suit covering Lin You's head.

The wind and rain were so strong that her suit couldn't protect her. When she returned to the house, she was soaked.

Shi Jingyuan pushed her into the bathroom impatiently.

"Take a shower first, and we'll talk after you're done."

Lin You closed the bathroom door with a cold face and didn't say a word from beginning to end.

Shi Jingyuan cursed in annoyance and wanted to smoke, but when he took out the cigarette box, he found that it was soaked with water.

He sighed, stared at the direction of the bathroom, and took out his cell phone to make a call with some helplessness.

"Well, we found her. Let everyone go back and rest."

"Thank you for your hard work today. I'll treat you all to a meal later."

"Women can't be indulged? Can't let their tails get too high? These... do I need you to teach me?"
