Chapter 103 Let’s go on a date when you come back from your business trip
The series of events that happened today made Lin Yan feel exhausted.
She wanted to calm down downstairs before going upstairs.
I don’t want to always have a gloomy face and bring negative emotions to Xing Yu.
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone rang.
It was Xing Yu calling.
She took a deep breath, adjusted her voice and answered the phone: "What's wrong?"
Xing Yu: "Why aren't you home yet? Are you working overtime again today?"
"I just ran into an old friend and chatted for a while." Lin Yan said nonchalantly: "I'll be back soon, wait for me."
"good."
As soon as I hung up the phone, the beam of the street lamp above my head was blocked, and my body was pressed down by a long shadow.
She looked up and her eyes met Xing Yu's.
Before she knew it, Xing Yu was already sitting next to her.
"Girlfriend." He turned his head to look at her: "What a coincidence."
Lin Yan forced a smile, a little embarrassed: "Xing Yu, I didn't mean to lie to you. I just wanted to sit downstairs..."
Xing Yu didn't delve into the topic, but just stared at the corners of her stiff mouth.
He raised his hand and tapped her forehead gently: "Ayan, don't laugh if you don't want to."
These simple words made Lin Yan's heart turn.
She moved closer to him with a sour nose: "Xing Yu, turn around."
Xing Yu seemed to know what she wanted to do. He turned around and opened his arms naturally.
"Hold me."
"How do you know I want to hug you, you little bastard?"
"I can read minds."
Lin Yan really smiled this time, raising her lips and leaning into his arms.
With his arms around me, I felt like a wounded turtle hiding in its hard shell. An indescribable sense of security and stability spread throughout my chest.
Her hair was caressed by his palm, and she leaned against his chest with her eyes half closed.
After a while, he slowly spoke.
"Xing Yu, it seems like the whole world doesn't want us to be together..."
Xing Yu had just been waiting for her downstairs after get off work when he saw her get into Mr. Xing's car. He had a rough idea of what they talked about.
He didn't mention that, but just held her in his arms and said to her.
"Don't think too much. All I know is that you are my whole world."
My heart, which was swayed by emotions, became more resolute because of his words.
Lin Yan tightened her arms and deepened the hug.
Skipping the topic, Lin Yan told him, "Xing Yu, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow for about a week."
Xing Yu suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
He rubbed his chin against her forehead: "We just got together and we have to be in a long-distance relationship."
Lin Yan joked, "Coach Xing is so clingy?"
Xing Yu stared down at her: "It's our first time in love, so we're very clingy."
"There's a long way to go." Lin Yan's eyes curved slightly. "Then Coach Xing, let's talk seriously, slowly, and properly."
"I'll listen to you." Xing Yu took her hand and said, "Let's go, Ayan. Let's go home for dinner."
Lin Yan: "Your hand isn't healed yet, didn't I tell you not to do it?"
"Do it?" Xing Yu raised the corner of his mouth and teased her: "Ayan, what to do? Do it with you?"
"..." Lin Yan understood everything and tapped his chest with her index finger: "Coach Xing, why don't you just change your name to Wu?"
"Then you..." Xing Yu imitated her movements and pointed at her chest: "It's Madam Dirty."
Lin Yan lowered her head and smiled, then took his arm and said, "Okay, Mr. Wu, let's go home."
The two men stood up, and their shadows, one tall and one short, were cast on the bench by the street light.
As they walked, the shadows gradually disappeared.
"Ayan."
"Um?"
"When you come back from your business trip, let's go on a date."
"good."
"Ayan."
"exist."
"Think of me."
"Know."
"Ayan."
"What happened again?"
"I haven't been able to hold you for a week. Tonight...can I sleep next to you?"
"Okay...but you can't touch me."
"Don't worry, I'm very honest..."
…
The next morning, Lin Yan set off for Sucheng on a business trip.
Xing Yu drove her to the airport and watched her go through security before leaving.
On the plane, Su Xin stared at the scarf around her neck, puzzled: "Sister Lin Yan, aren't you hot? It's almost 30 degrees today, why are you still wearing a scarf?"
Lin Yan turned her gaze to the clouds outside the window, a hint of helpless sweetness appearing at the corners of her lips.
"Because your brother Xing Yu is very honest..."
"Ah?" Su Xin didn't understand: "What are you talking about, Sister Lin Yan."
Lin Yan patted the tablet in her arms and changed the subject: "Check the information carefully. We have to meet the client as soon as the plane lands."
Su Xin immediately threw herself into her work: "Yes, sir!"
Two hours later, the plane landed in Suzhou.
They returned to the hotel, put their luggage, and started working...
I received a call from Zeng Bo at noon three days later.
She and Su Xin had just finished their work and were about to go out for dinner.
After the call, Zeng Bo sent her the registration information of the number that sent her the photo.
Lin Yan looked at the man's address, which was near Sucheng, in Haishi.
It only takes more than two hours to get there by high-speed rail.
There is nothing important to do this afternoon.
She talked to Su Xin for a few words and then took the nearest high-speed train to Hai City.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, she arrived at an old town in Hai City.
Looking at the dilapidated old-style community in front of her, she took a deep breath and climbed to the fifth floor.
I knocked on the door and a half-bald old man, probably in his sixties, opened it.
Then, the strong smell of medicine in the house hit her nostrils.
"Who are you?" the old man spoke in the local dialect.
Lin Yan barely understood and spoke politely.
"Hello, are you Mr. Mo?"
The old man didn't say anything.
But from his defensive look, Lin Yan confirmed his identity.
She stated her purpose: "Old man, I'm here to confirm something with you. Did you register a mobile phone last week..."
Before she could finish her words, the old man's face changed and he interrupted her directly: "No!"
Then the door slammed shut, blocking her out.
Stress response, it seems there is really a problem.
Lin Yan didn't knock on the door again, knowing that he wouldn't open it.
So he went downstairs and set his sights on the convenience store in the community.
She went in to buy some things, and seeing that the proprietress looked kind and easy to talk to, she started asking questions.
"Hello, I'd like to ask if you know Mr. Mo who lives in Building 503?"
The lady boss was scrolling through videos on her phone and glanced at her: "I know her, what's wrong?"
Lin Yan made up an excuse: "I'm the real estate agent. Mr. Mo contacted me a while ago and said he wanted to sell his house. I just went to see him and he suddenly changed his mind and said he didn't want to sell it. Not only did I come all the way here for nothing, but he even got angry with me. It's really hard."
The boss lady looked her over. She was wearing a professional suit and had a mature and capable temperament. She looked like she worked in real estate.
She continued, "Mr. Mo usually has a weird temper and rarely goes out, but I haven't heard that he wants to sell the house!"
"Really?" Lin Yan: "That's strange, maybe he's short of money."
The proprietress waved her hand and said, "Tsk! He's not short of money. He received a huge compensation before."
"Compensation?"
Lin Yan leaned over the counter and, with a familiar air, approached the proprietress. "Sister, what's the compensation? Tell me quickly. I want to see if this old man really wants to sell his house."
The proprietress didn't think much about it, she just leaned forward and started telling the story.
"Let me tell you, Mr. Mo's wife was in a serious car accident two years ago and has been paralyzed at home ever since. The driver was driving drunk and fled the scene, and it took a long time to catch him! But his father was an official, so he was released on bail not long after!"
"The Mo couple are DINKs and have no children to support them. His wife is in the hospital and needs medical expenses. He has no choice but to bite the bullet and look for lawyers to sue him."
"But he was lucky. A lawyer heard about his situation and offered to represent him for free."
"Even though we didn't win the case in the end, and the perpetrator was still protected by his father, a government official, and didn't go to jail, at least the old couple won over a million yuan in compensation! And then the matter was just left unresolved..."
Lin Yan's scalp was tingling at this moment.
Because she remembered that two years ago, Song Yanzheng also helped an elderly man who was in a car accident to fight a lawsuit for free.
Impossible, such a coincidence...
Lin Yan remained calm and continued, "It seems this lawyer is a good person. Do you know where he's from? What's his name?"
"I don't know about that." The proprietress paused and added, "I think he's from northern Beijing. Anyway, he came from northern Beijing at the time and was quite a famous lawyer."
By this point, Lin Yan's psychological defenses had collapsed.
I find all this both ridiculous and terrifying.
Song Yanzheng, when did he become so meticulous and cunning...
Last time, she actually believed him.
As my thoughts came to a standstill, the phone in my bag suddenly rang.
She stared at Song Yanzheng's name on the phone screen, a hint of sarcasm on her lips...
