Chapter 261 Baby, let's change our strategy
Three days later, after Mr. Xing's funeral,
Lin Yan received a call from Mo Xue asking her to meet him.
The sandalwood scent from the tea room filled the entire house.
Lin Yan watched Mo Xue take off her scarf, sit down opposite her, and speak to her.
"Lin Yan, I did what you asked me to do. I followed Wenxi for three days and didn't capture any footage of her and Song Yanzheng interacting. She went back and forth between the hospital and home every day, and she hardly ever left the house, even on weekends."
"It seems that there is nothing suspicious. It seems that she is not the Miss X you mentioned."
Lin Yan added hot water to the teapot, and the rising steam blurred her face.
My memory goes back to the heavy snow three days ago.
Wenxi asked her to meet him and sent her home. It was snowing heavily and the road was too slippery, so he hit the guardrail. He then helped her call a taxi, and she got in that taxi.
Everything is too coincidental.
If Miss X ruled out Mo Xue, then Wen Xi would be the biggest suspect.
After all, Xi is also X.
Wenxi was a gentle and kind person, which made her let down her guard from the beginning.
But she forgot that maybe she has always been wearing a mask under her perfect personality?
"Mo Xue, please continue to keep an eye on Wenxi for me. If there's anything wrong with her, she'll reveal it sooner or later."
"good."
"Has Song Yanzheng looked for you these days?"
"He called me and asked how you were doing physically and mentally. In his opinion, you had already finished the bottle of medicine."
Having said that, Lin Yan took advantage of the situation.
"Mo Xue, call him later and tell him that I'm starting to feel dazed, my memory is failing, and I keep forgetting things."
"knew."
After separating from Mo Xue, it was already evening when Lin Yan got home.
As soon as I opened the door, the familiar smell of food entered my nose.
She was stunned for two seconds, her eyes first falling on the pair of shoes at the entrance.
Lin Yan smiled, changed her shoes faster, and walked towards the kitchen with light steps.
At a glance, I saw Xing Yu, wearing a black sweater with his sleeves rolled up, cooking in the kitchen.
"Xing Yu." Lin Yan's voice rose slightly.
Xing Yu paused, and without looking back, turned off the range hood first.
Lin Yan walked over and hugged his waist from behind: "I haven't seen you for three days, did you miss me?"
"In no mood."
The waistline under the sweater was tight, and I could feel his warm body temperature through the fabric.
She put her face on his back: "Don't you want to cook for me?"
Xing Yu turned around and patted her forehead: "Ayan, you are not listening."
"Why don't you listen?"
"You don't tell me anything, huh?"
Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat: "You know everything? My brother told you?"
Xing Yu didn't respond, just stared at her.
The emotions in his eyes could not be hidden.
I felt worried, angry, and a little helpless because I couldn't do anything about her.
"Okay." Lin Yan had no choice but to soften her voice. She stood on tiptoe and rubbed his chin like a kitten begging for mercy: "Didn't I see that you were busy with grandpa's funeral these days? I just didn't have time to tell you."
Xing Yu suddenly took a deep breath, which seemed to roll out from the depths of his chest, carrying a heavy solemnity.
"Ayan." He lifted her chin and forced her to look him in the eye. "Grandpa's death is indeed related to Song Yanzheng, but this is my business. You don't need to get involved. You can't get involved in the mess at Xing's. In any case, I won't agree to you working at Xing's. Forget it."
Lin Yan: "I'll listen to you on everything else, but this isn't going to work. I've already contacted Song Yanzheng and will report to Xing's tomorrow."
"You're not listening, are you?"
Lin Yan met his gaze. "Xing Yu, ever since I resigned from Huasheng, I haven't been able to get any clients even as a freelance translator. I'm starting to suspect someone has blocked me again. Going to Xing's, I'll get a high salary, and I can keep an eye on Song Yanzheng. It's the best of both worlds, how great."
Xing Yu: "Song Yanzheng is eyeing you covetously. You are walking into a tiger's mouth."
“It’s not certain who enters and who exits.”
"Your little cleverness is not worth mentioning in his eyes."
Lin Yan curled her lips deliberately: "I am just a fool in your eyes, right?"
"Yes, very stupid."
Lin Yan held his hand and swung it coquettishly: "Hubby, it's settled."
husband……
Xing Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and although his face was stern, he couldn't suppress the smile at the corners of his lips.
"Don't give me that. I won't buy it."
Lin Yan leaned over and kissed him, looking at him with a smile: "Do you want this?"
Xing Yu stuck to his principles: "It's useless."
Lin Yan hugged his neck, tilted her head back and rubbed his Adam's apple with the tip of her nose: "Husband..."
Xing Yu's throat rolled, he grabbed her waist and gently pushed her away: "It's still useless."
Lin Yan looked at his unromantic expression, her face fell and she muttered, "It's like he's just quitting drugs."
"Didn't you just quit?"
“…” Lin Yan stopped talking.
The air was quiet, with only the bubbling sound of the beef brisket stewing in the pot.
After a while, he suddenly grabbed her neck.
Xing Yu suddenly lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers. After a while, he held her in his arms again.
"Okay, let's eat."
Soon, four dishes and a soup were placed on the table.
They were still all her favorite dishes.
Lin Yan took two bites and then deliberately became distracted.
"Ayan." Xing Yu stared at her sideways, tapping the table with his index finger: "Eat your meal obediently."
Lin Yan poked the beef in the bowl with her chopsticks and begged: "If you don't agree to me, I will feel upset and can't eat..."
Xing Yu placed his hands on his chest and watched her performance calmly: "Baby, try a different move."
Lin Yan stood up directly: "No need to change, I'm going to sleep."
As soon as she turned around, her arm was grabbed and Xing Yu pulled her to sit on his lap.
"I can't do anything about you."
Lin Yan: "What?"
"Promise."
Lin Yan smiled and kissed him on the face again and again: "Xing Yu, you are the best."
"You change your mind faster than turning the pages of a book."
“No way.”
"You're not calling me husband anymore?"
"Life is still long, I'll call you later."
"You're so talkative." Xing Yu's expression returned to seriousness as he warned her, "Ayan, I promise you'll join the Xing family, but you can't act on your own. You must discuss everything with me. I have a plan here too. You must do as I say and listen to me."
Lin Yan nodded: "Then I must listen to my husband."
Xing Yu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
Lin Yan poked the corner of his mouth: "You smiled, and your lips turned up."
Xing Yu's heart and eyes were filled with doting: "Now that you're no longer bothered, can we eat now?"
"Eat, eat two bowls."
Lin Yan sat back in her chair and ate obediently.
After she had eaten her fill, Xing Yu began to ask about the real business.
"Ayan, do you suspect there's something wrong with Wenxi?"
"Well, my brother should have told you everything that happened that day. I just felt something was wrong." Lin Yan took the opportunity to inquire: "Xing Yu, how well do you know Wenxi?"
Xing Yu: "The Wen family is a medical family, and they have a good relationship with the Xing family. Wenxi often came to the Xing family when she was young. I had a lot of contact with her before I was eighteen, but then she went abroad to study and I joined the army, and we haven't been in touch since then."
"What's her personality like? Has she always been this peaceful, gentle, and generous?"
"That's the impression she has."
Lin Yan turned to him and said, "Xing Yu, Wenxi has always liked you, right?"
Xing Yu had a strong desire to survive and explained: "Ayan, I clearly rejected her."
If Wenxi really had a problem, then she seemed to understand why Wenxi had an affair with Song Yanzheng...
