Lin Yan had no idea that Lu Jinghuai was probing her. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lu Jinghuai withdraw his gaze, and lowered her head to eat without thinking too much about it.
After lunch, Lu Jinghuai returned to the office. Lin Yan was tactful enough to go straight back to the translation department.
However, he bumped into Song Jingya at the corner. Song Jingya seemed to be waiting for her here on purpose, and her eyes looking at him were particularly dark.
Yes, it is dark. Lin Yan didn’t want to use such words to describe it, but that is indeed the feeling.
"Do you think that if it wasn't an accident, your brother would marry you? Does he like you? Don't be so delusional."
Song Jingya's words were full of disparagement and contempt.
"You are just a country bumpkin. How can you be worthy of my brother? Sooner or later, my brother will divorce you."
Lin Yan also realized it. Without any argument, she agreed directly: "Yes, yes, yes! You are right!"
However, Song Jingya was not happy with Lin Yan's answer. Instead, she thought that Lin Yan was provoking her. She snorted coldly and turned away.
Lin Yan rolled her eyes helplessly.
Lin Yan didn't doubt what Song Jingya said at all. After all, that was what was written in the original book.
Three years later, Lu Jinghuai will divorce Lin Yan and give her a breakup fee.
However, Lin Yan was still a little disappointed with Song Jingya. In fact, when she was reading the book, Lin Yan felt that the heroine's character was a bit strange.
In the original novel, she is Lu Jinghuai's white moonlight, but Lu Jinghuai is married after all.
Song Jingya ignored Lu Jinghuai's wife and continued to pester Lu Jinghuai. Isn't that just knowing the truth and taking the blame?
Of course, Lu Jinghuai is not a good person either. He likes Song Jingya but does not marry her, dragging the innocent Lin Yan into the conflict between them.
At that time, it was normal to read novels without thinking, but now I find it annoying when I put myself in their shoes.
Which heroine would deliberately make things difficult for the female cannon fodder and run up to her to warn her?
But Lin Yan didn't think much about it. She was not interested in exploring Song Jingya's true inner thoughts.
…
That night, after dinner, Lin Yan was about to watch a TV series when she suddenly received a message from the translation manager.
"Lin Yan, are you available now? I have a document that needs urgent translation, so I might need you to work overtime."
As if worried that Lin Yan would refuse, another message came right after.
"Except for you, all the other employees on our team are busy with work, but this document is needed tomorrow... The company provides overtime compensation."
This was the first time that the translation manager assigned Lin Yan an urgent task. Even if it meant working overtime, Lin Yan felt relieved.
The main reason is that she feels awkward watching others busy in the office every day while she is left alone with nothing to do.
Lin Yan replied decisively: "Of course, I will translate the document as soon as possible."
After Lin Yan replied to the message, she remembered that she didn't seem to have a laptop. She usually used a tablet to watch TV shows. The tablet could certainly handle work, but it was always a little inconvenient.
The only computer in the house was in Lu Jinghuai's study. After hesitating for a while, Lin Yan knocked on the door of Lu Jinghuai's study.
Lu Jinghuai was no longer working at the desk but reading a book on the sofa. When Lin Yan pushed the door open, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at her.
"Um?"
Lin Yan was also very calm and pointed to the computer on the desk.
"Our manager just said he needs me to work overtime. Can I use your computer?"
"Yeah." Lu Jinghuai nodded, probably agreeing.
Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief and went straight behind the desk. She was about to sit down and turn on the computer when she thought of something and looked up to ask Lu Jinghuai.
"Is there anything I can't move? Will I come across any confidential documents?"
Lu Jinghuai raised his eyes again and looked at Lin Yan as if he was looking at a fool. After a moment of silence, he said, "I won't keep confidential documents on my computer at home, and I will lock it."
Lin Yan saw it, curled her lips and said nothing.
"I work for your company, can you please be a little more patient? I'm just showing that I have boundaries, okay?"
Lin Yan frowned and turned on the computer, but during the first few seconds she was attracted by a photo frame next to the computer.
The photo in the frame is a bit old, it seems to be Lu Jinghuai's family portrait...
[Is this Lu Jinghuai's family photo? The family photo is placed on the desk. I didn't expect Lu Jinghuai to be such a thoughtful person?]
At this moment, Lin Yan's eyes fell on the photo frame, and she didn't notice that Lu Jinghuai's hand holding the book on the sofa tightened.
Lin Yan recognized Lu Jinghuai in the photo at a glance. Lu Jinghuai, who was about sixteen or seventeen years old, looked a little immature, but his features were different from those of others.
Confidence and dignity can be vaguely seen between her eyebrows. Lin Yan's gaze turned to the slightly younger girl beside Lu Jinghuai.
With a sweet smile and a carefree look, this must be Lu Yingqian, right? She looks a bit like Lin's mother in the photo.
What a pity! Such a little girl was kidnapped to the mountains. I heard she was bought home by her adoptive mother's family as a child bride.
Lu Jinghuai's expression had changed, and he clenched his fists hard to prevent his emotions from erupting.
Kidnapping, child bride, any one of these words would be unacceptable to Lu Yingqian, let alone the two words appearing at the same time.
In just that instant, Lu Jinghuai felt his breathing stagnate and his throat became hoarse. He wanted to ask for more information about Lin Yan and Lu Yingqian.
But he was worried that Lin Yan might notice something and become wary of him.
For so many years, he has been looking for Lu Yingqian, and only learned some information after hearing Lin Yan's thoughts.
