Chapter 266: We haven't seen each other for just one night, and you're already thinking about me?
When Xing Yu finished dealing with company affairs, it was already early morning when he returned home.
There was no light in the living room, but the light from a cell phone screen was on on the sofa.
Looking over, Lin Yan was curled up on the sofa and fell asleep, with a cashmere blanket draped over her, but it wasn't covering her properly and half of it had slipped to the ground.
Xing Yu walked over quietly, squatted in front of the sofa, took the phone from her hand, picked up the blanket that had slipped off, and put it on her shoulders.
Lin Yan was a light sleeper and woke up immediately. Her eyes focused on Xing Yu's tired face: "Are you back?"
She rubbed her eyes and sat up.
Xing Yu brushed off the messy hair by her ear and said in a tired voice, "Why are you sleeping on the sofa?"
"Waiting for you." Lin Yan patted the seat next to him and asked him to sit down. "Are you busy with company matters? Why did you come back just now?"
Xing Yu took off his coat and sat beside her. Without answering immediately, he hugged her first.
He closed his eyes and said, "Charge first."
Lin Yan rested her chin on his shoulder. She could sense that he was very tired, so she hugged him back: "Well, recharge."
After a while, Xing Yu let her go, his eyes filled with guilt. "Ayan, the wedding may have to be postponed. Something happened at the company, and we need to resolve it first."
Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat and she asked, "What's the matter?"
Xing Yu did not hide it from her and told her the truth.
After hearing this, Lin Yan's sleepiness disappeared completely.
"Xing Mo transferred the company's funds? Are you sure it was Xing Mo? And not Song Yanzheng?"
"Yes, it's Xing Mo."
"How could it be him? He even helped you at the shareholders' meeting today."
Xing Yu: "He wasn't helping me, nor was he helping Song Yanzheng. He was very clear-headed from the beginning to the end, and never forgot about revenge. In fact, I didn't want to participate in his revenge, but my grandfather's only wish was for me to protect the Xing family, so I had no choice but to oppose him on this matter."
"So what exactly is Song Yanzheng trying to do?" Lin Yan was confused. "He hasn't made any moves yet. I can't see through him."
"Maybe..." Xing Yu hesitated and said, "Maybe Song Yanzheng didn't expect Xing Mo to do this?"
Lin Yan didn't respond for a moment. Just thinking about this matter gave her a headache. She grabbed Xing Yu's arm, unable to hide her anxiety: "Xing Yu, the shell company is a big pit. What are you going to do?"
Xing Yu: "Your man is a god, he has plenty of ways."
Although it was a joke, Lin Yan felt more at ease.
She stared at the bloodshot in Xing Yu's eyes, lowered her head, threaded her fingers through his, and tightened them: "Xing Yu, if you need funds urgently, I'll ask my brother for help. He's made a lot of dirty money in the Lantai jewelry business over the years."
"Does our brother know you're talking about him like that?" Xing Yu smiled. "Ayan, you're already rushing to pay for me before the wedding even starts? Lin Zhi is a single man, he needs to save money to get married. I can't accept money from your family without a clear conscience. I'm a man who cares about my reputation."
Lin Yan said seriously: "Be serious, I'm not kidding you."
"I know." Xing Yu said firmly: "Trust me, I can break the deadlock."
"I just want to tell you that no matter what difficulties arise, I will face them with you."
Xing Yu: "Tsk, I must have been blessed in my past lives to have such a wonderful wife like you."
"Don't give me that." Lin Yan asked the main point: "By the way, have you told your dad about this?"
"What's the point of telling Song Yanzheng, that pig-brained guy who thinks shit is gold? It's just a waste of words."
Lin Yan was blunt: "Xing Yu, how could your idiot father give birth to such a smart son like you?"
"Don't compare me with him." Xing Yu: "Shame on you."
"And." Lin Yan changed the subject: "Why did you insist on me telling Song Yanzheng that we broke up? And why do I still have to act in the company?"
Xing Yu scratched his nose: "I'm protecting you, idiot."
"Protect me?"
Xing Yu patiently explained, "Song Yanzheng wants you the most. If we both stay in front of him all day, it will only irritate him and he might do something crazy."
"Let him think we've broken up. He'll feel less threatened and won't rush to take action, and you'll be safer.
"Let's keep him stable for now. We can also take this opportunity to wait for him to reveal his true intentions."
Lin Yan: "Coach Xing is really thoughtful."
"Okay." Xing Yu picked her up and walked towards the bedroom: "Sleep."
…
The next day, before dawn, Xing Mo had already driven to Xing's.
The office was dimly lit. When I turned on the light, I saw Xiang Ze sleeping sprawled on the sofa.
Xing Mo walked over and kicked him lightly on the calf.
"Hmm..." Xiang Ze suddenly woke up, frantically wiping his saliva. Still a little dazed, he subconsciously glanced at the time. The numbers on the screen made his eyes widen instantly.
"Second Master... why are you here so early? It's... it's only six o'clock! It's not even seven o'clock..."
Xing Mo put the paper bag in his hand on the table. The paper bag was printed with the logo of a very famous breakfast shop, and the faint aroma of rice wafted out.
"Give."
"Oh, our Second Master is so thoughtful that he even remembers to bring me breakfast. I know you care about me!" As he said that, he reached out to take it with a playful smile.
"It's not for you." Xing Mo tilted his chin towards the inner room and said, "Send it in."
"..." Xiang Ze silently withdrew his hand, his eyes moving around Xing Mo's face, and he couldn't help but teasing: "Second Master, what's the matter? We haven't seen each other for just one night, and you're already thinking about me?"
Xing Mo seemed to have been poked by something, his face darkened: "I don't care about anything!"
"Okay, okay." Xiang Ze quickly corrected: "You're thinking about me! You're thinking about me, okay~"
Xing Mo glared at him, then glanced vaguely at the closed door: "I asked you to watch people, but you slept like a dead pig. Did she eat anything last night?"
"Second Master, she initially refused to eat the meal and cake you sent her last night. Around 11pm, she probably couldn't stand it anymore and secretly ate them all."
"Did you cry? Did you make a fuss?"
"You're worrying too much, Second Master." Xiang Ze recalled the surveillance footage from last night. "That idiot made a scene for a while at first, smashed a couple of cups, sobbed for a few minutes, and cursed you for half an hour."
"Then she probably got tired of scolding me and fell asleep. Didn't you take her phone? She must have been bored when she woke up, so she sat on the bed and started doing yoga!"
"After yoga, she fell asleep again, woke up, jumped around the room, then lay back down on the bed and cursed at you at the ceiling."
"Then I ate something and fell asleep again. I haven't woken up yet."
"That's all. The report is complete."
After saying that, Xiang Ze picked up the tablet on the table, opened the monitoring interface, and handed it to Xing Mo: "Here, Second Master, look, he's sleeping soundly! He hasn't woken up at all. His sleep quality is amazing."
Xing Mo picked up the tablet, and the light from the screen reflected into his eyes, and Su Xin's sleeping figure was clearly visible.
He was lying on the bed in a completely ungraceful manner, half covered with the quilt, his hair was messy, and he was still wearing his white down jacket, looking round like a big ball of cotton.
How did she do it... She looked like an idiot even when she was sleeping.
Xiang Ze secretly observed his slightly changing expression and leaned forward: "Second Master, if you want to see, I'll open the door now. Shall we go in and take a look?"
Xing Mo immediately retracted his gaze, threw the tablet back to Xiang Ze, turned around and walked behind the desk, pulled out a chair and sat down, saying coldly: "Not interested, don't want to watch it."
