Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Lu Yanlin won't push him too much...
Lu Yanlin would not push him too hard. He was not in a hurry to know Jin Man's answer. Talking about feelings was similar to doing business. If you were too impatient, it would be worthless. He would not be like Jin Man.
He did not return to Lu Mansion, nor did he allow anyone to disturb him. He let Jin Man stay at home and think on his own.
Jin Man has a very good personality. He is soft-hearted and easy to understand and coax. It may take some time to get along with him.
Lu Yanlin spent some time looking for Bai Ning and made preparations for the future. He didn't need to think too much to know that Bai Ning didn't tell the truth when he faced Jin Man. It was he who abandoned the child in the hospital. When his life got better, he regretted it and wanted to see the child. He lied more than he ate. Only a herbivore like Jin Man would be fooled.
In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the next day. It was the beginning of autumn, the end of summer in Bincheng, and the osmanthus flowers had not yet bloomed.
Lu Yanlin attended the banquet in a luxury car and met Xin Mihe.
Xin Mihe settled the dispute at home and came back to find Lu Yanlin. Domestic e-commerce is developing well and the market is large, but foreign trade involves many directions. There are not many people in Bincheng who can connect the upstream and downstream at the same time.
Although they are close, if they want to ask Lu Yanlin to do something, they can't use any tricks.
Xin Mihe saved Jin Man's number in advance, hoping to find a reason to treat him to a meal, but couldn't get through.
There happened to be a banquet in the afternoon, and Lu Yanlin was there too. Wherever he went, he was the center of attention. People admired him for being strong. The more noble, cold, and unattainable he was, the more people would be interested in him.
But few people dare to tease the tiger's whiskers.
This kind of formal invitation is usually attended by couples. Xin Mihe didn't see Jin Man and didn't know why he didn't come.
"Brother, my friend recently got a piece of land in Feili and planted coffee beans. They're pretty good. I brought some for you and Jin Man."
Lu Yanlin doesn't like coffee, he likes tea, so Xin Mihe's purpose is very obvious. He values Jin Man and wants to pry Lu Yanlin's mouth from here. I don't know who taught him this.
Lu Yanlin didn't agree. He rarely changed his own deadlines and said calmly, "Next time, let's go out for a cup of coffee together."
Xin Mihe was also happy. His goal was achieved. He went to say hello to a few friends and became a little unrestrained after chatting for a long time.
An Alpha like this, who is tall, has long legs, comes from an extraordinary family and is handsome, should be very popular.
But this afternoon, when he followed Lu Yanlin to the banquet, he always felt a sense of unfriendly gaze.
Most of the couples attending the meeting were omegas, and Xu Zhi was naturally there. He was very surprised and wondered why Jin Man didn't come. He had experienced his partner cheating with other women, and he was really scared.
Now her new boyfriend, Shen Xiao, has also accepted Jin Man's help. He couldn't help but mutter to Shen Xiao:
"Jin Man is obviously very cute."
"How annoying! I wanted to show him this pair of earrings today. He's the only one who can appreciate their color and lines without any lewdness."
"He praised me for being pretty last time."
This sentence actually has a simple literal meaning.
Shen Xiao also knew Jin Man's character. He just smiled when he saw a slender figure with an indifferent expression. He quickly took Xu Zhi into his arms: "Okay, let's go."
But when Xu Zhi saw it, he became even angrier.
He deliberately said loudly: "Really? Jin Man told me last time that I was the most beautiful omega he had ever seen."
This statement is an exaggeration, but only Xu Zhi knows the truth. He is just stressed and unhappy. Jin Man defends Lu Yanlin so much and doesn't say a bad word. How could he be so excessive? He doesn't even betray Zhao Xiaoqing!
Shen Xiao covered his mouth, blocked him behind him, and greeted the man respectfully: "Mr. Lu."
Lu Yanlin glanced at Xu Zhi, who immediately shuddered, like a deflated balloon unable to rise again. His family's business had nothing to do with Lu Yanlin, but Shen Xiao was just a subcontractor of the Lu family and could not compete.
Lu Yanlin held the wine glass, smiled, and suddenly said: "How did you answer?"
Xu Zhi was stunned. He stuttered, his face flushed with embarrassment, unable to speak. This question was a bit sharp for the Omega. He wanted to attract only the best of the opposite sex. Gold and gold were not considered high-quality. If he made up some nonsense, it would only make people think he was of low quality.
Shen Xiao wanted to help him out, but Lu Yanlin's expression gradually turned colder, and he walked away from him with a bit of polite contempt.
Xu Zhi's face turned green, and he felt upset and uncomfortable.
Of course, he also thinks Jin Man is a good person, but he has such good conditions, so of course he wants to find a partner who is handsome and rich. It is still a bit difficult for him to be with an ordinary person. How can he bear it if it is not true love?
The coffee that Xin Mihe was supposed to drink another day suddenly became the one he drank today.
He had no objection and drove to Lu Mansion, bringing with him a can of special coffee beans and a full set of coffee pots. Halfway there, Lu Yanlin suddenly gave an order and turned back to pick up a lawyer.
What do you do when you bring a lawyer home?
Xin Mihe looked at Lu Yanlin several times, but couldn't guess it. The car turned to Lu Mansion. The lights in the main building and the small buildings on both sides were on, but there was no one in the house and the lights in the living room were off.
Lu Yanlin opened the door and the three big men walked into the house one after another. He glanced at the coffee table and didn't see the divorce agreement. He guessed that Jin Man might have taken it back to his bedroom. He felt a little relieved and was not surprised.
Xin Mihe put the beans on the table and his fingers touched a hard corner.
He picked them up and found two red books with the word "divorce" printed in big letters. There were also photocopied documents next to them and the front door key was clipped in a transparent clip.
He was stunned for three seconds, not daring to open it, and shouted: "Brother."
Lu Yanlin walked over with an expressionless face. His slender white fingertips touched the red cover, and the cold touch made his heart tremble slightly.
The room was quiet, very quiet.
He opened the red book. The content was very simple, with the name, date, official seal, everything clearly written. The time was today, which meant that more than ten hours ago, the signed divorce agreement had been registered and notarized by a lawyer.
Jin Man had no experience with law, and he was able to do this probably because he had even considered Lu Yanlin's reaction.
The seemingly not-so-bright Alpha was smart only in one thing. He saw through Lu Yanlin's reaction and, within the grace period he gave, entrusted his own lawyer to get everything done. It was neat and tidy, with a touch of his own silent style.
Lu Yanlin picked up the folder and shook the key in the transparent bag, making a slight clinking sound. The pendant was a round sunflower.
He felt very uncomfortable and couldn't tell whether it was the feeling of being played around with or the cold sarcasm of the Alpha seen on the pendant with a smile.
He suddenly turned around and went upstairs. The things in the master bedroom had not been touched. The handicrafts made by Jin Man and Lu Zhi hanging on the wall were also placed there in good condition. The traces of their lives had not been cleaned up, but the people who once lived here together were now strangers to him.
He paused slightly and pushed open Lu Zhi's room. The chubby, round doll had been washed and was placed at the head of the bed, sitting there stupidly.
Jin Man left.
He called that number, but as expected, the call didn't go through. It was likely that he had been blacklisted.
It was ridiculous that the Alpha had only ever sent him text messages in his life, and had only noted different names for him, but in the end it was like a scar that could not be removed, leaving behind a string of numbers that he could not dial and did not want to look at.
Lu Yanlin laughed slightly, but at the same time he knew that he was different to Jin Man.
He actually knew it clearly, but he just ignored it.
Lu Gongguan's phone suddenly rang, and Xin Mihe answered it while standing aside. He covered the receiver and asked him, "Brother, a man asked if Jin Man was here and wanted to deliver something."
Lu Yanlin said in a deep voice: "Let him come."
He came out of the main building, the evening breeze blowing his temples, bringing a slightly damp coolness. He opened the door that was rarely opened and saw the box on the table at a glance.
The house was clean and there was no trace of the room where he had lived.
He opened the box, which was filled with many luxury goods. The jewels and glass balls were casually placed together by Alpha.
There were a few stacks of banknotes and a small round gold bean, and a note listed some lost jewels and compensation.
Lu Yanlin found it ridiculous. He laughed at the Alpha, who still had an unsociable temper until now. He would not fight for himself, would not ask him for money, did not understand worldly matters, and could not tolerate being in debt.
To put it nicely, it's kindness; to put it viciously, it's stupidity.
He slowly closed the box, his heart aching and filled with cold fire. He walked out of the room and saw a piece of grass that had been dug up under the sycamore tree.
Jin Man doesn't want nothing.
He didn't take anything from the Lu family, he just took the chicken.
Lu Yanlin reacted belatedly and stared at the tall sycamore tree in a trance.
"Brother, that person is here."
Xin Mihe has been very cautious since he saw the red book. Others may not know, but he and Lu Yanlin grew up together and he knows that the calmer he is, the bigger the problem will be.
The people from outside the mansion were young and dressed simply.
He looked around curiously and saw an imposing and indifferent man coming out from behind the flower hedge. He looked him up and down and felt that he matched him. He said cheerfully, "Why is Jin Man's phone turned off? You are Lu Yanlin, right?"
He took out a horizontal axis from his backpack: "Jin Man said he didn't want it anymore, but Master just finished repairing it and asked me to send it over."
Lu Yanlin asked: "What is it?"
The man nodded and handed him a scroll. When he saw the familiar color of the paper, his pupils shrank slightly. After slowly unfolding it, he saw that it was the painting that his grandmother had damaged when Lu Mansion was robbed. The burned part had been repaired.
The young man said: "My master has had some free time recently. He has spent over a month recovering. I don't want him to wait in vain."
"Tell Jin Man that you don't need to go to my master's place to help anymore. Come have a cup of tea when you have time."
Lu Yanlin suddenly asked: "Who is your master?"
The young man raised his eyebrows: "Zhou Jun, have you seen the documentary?"
Lu Yanlin knew that he had asked Zhou Jun to revise the painting, but Zhou Jun refused because he was too busy with work. Zhou Jun was highly respected but had a bad temper and was the type who would not be easily persuaded. So he never mentioned it again and asked Aunt Yu to hang Lu Zhi's painting in its original position.
Now that the painting was repaired, he felt like a weight had fallen on his heart.
