Chapter 96 Don’t be so annoying with Yanyan
The photo in her hand was like a sharp iron nail, piercing her eyes.
It hurts so much that I can't blink.
She was stunned at the door, and it was Xing Yu's voice that brought her back to her senses.
"Ayan, what are you looking at?"
Lin Yan feinted for a moment, then calmly put the photo back into the file bag.
"These are the documents sent by the client. I'll take them back to my room and put them there first."
After returning to the room, she immediately tore up the photos and flushed them down the toilet.
After gathering my thoughts, I returned to the living room.
I saw Xing Yu answering the phone.
After finishing, Xing Yu walked towards her: "Ayan, I won't cook tonight, let's go out to eat."
"Why?"
"Wang Yixun's birthday."
Lin Yan was in no mood: "Why don't you go, I'm a little tired."
Xing Yu took her hand.
"Let's go together. Wang Yixun just broke up and is feeling depressed. He and I, two grown men, don't have much to talk about. If you go, we can tease him a little, and he won't be so bored."
“…”
Lin Yan didn't want to spoil the fun, so she agreed.
Half an hour later, Lin Yan followed Xing Yu to the hotel.
When they arrived at the box, Wang Yixun was the only one sitting at the large round table.
Seeing them walking in hand in hand, Wang Yixun's hand, which was still swiping on his phone, suddenly stopped.
"Old Xing, did you catch up?"
Xing Yu pulled her to sit opposite Wang Yixun: "Isn't it obvious enough?"
Wang Yixun couldn't believe it and asked Lin Yan for confirmation: "Director Lin, did that rough guy Old Xing really get you?"
Lin Yan and Xing Yu looked at each other and imitated his words: "Not obvious enough?"
"..." Wang Yixun leaned back in his chair and snorted, "How can you two be here to celebrate my birthday with me? You're clearly here to torture me."
Xing Yu: "You and your Xiaobao have abused me for several years. Now it's time to pay back."
"Vile." Wang Yixun spat and then returned to his composure: "Old Xing, I've called someone over. You'll be surprised to see him."
"who?"
"The comrade you care about most!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the box opened and a tall, calm and handsome man walked in.
He stopped in front of Xing Yu, his face full of excitement: "Captain Xing."
Xing Yu stood up, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes, and his palm immediately fell on his shoulder: "Qu Si, long time no see."
"Yeah, long time no see." Qu Si: "We haven't been in touch for many years since I retired from the army."
Xing Yu asked, "Where have you been developing these years? How are you doing?"
"I'm not in China. I'm my own boss abroad and run a small business."
Xing Yu didn't ask any more questions. He gestured for him to sit down and said, "Sit down and talk slowly."
As Qu Si sat down, his eyes inadvertently swept over Lin Yan beside him.
"Captain Xing, who is this?"
"My girlfriend." After saying that, Xing Yu turned around and introduced Lin Yan: "Ayan, this is my best comrade in the army, Qu Si."
Lin Yan shifted her gaze and found that Qu Si was staring at her.
When they looked at each other, Lin Yan had an illusion.
I actually felt that the man in front of me was very familiar.
I have clearly never seen him before, and it is clearly a strange face.
But I always feel like I've seen it somewhere.
She smiled politely: "Hello, Mr. Qu. I'm Lin Yan."
"Hello." Qu Si smiled back and spoke freely, "Ms. Lin, Captain Xing was the captain of our special forces back then, and he took special care of us. However, I later retired early for personal reasons, and I lost contact with Captain Xing."
"If I hadn't bumped into Mr. Wang on the street today, I'm afraid I wouldn't be sitting down to eat with Captain Xing tonight."
Xing Yu: "Qu Si, now that I'm retired, you don't have to call me Captain Xing. Besides, you're older than me, so it's not surprising for me to call you brother."
"Don't joke with me like that. You saved me during the mission. You are the person I respect and appreciate the most." Qu Si swayed his lips and naturally shifted the topic to Lin Yan.
"Captain Xing, I remember you had a marriage proposal a long time ago, right? I guess this Miss Lin is you..."
"Qu Si." Wang Yixun, noticing the unfriendly nature of the topic, interrupted with a smile, "Didn't you expect that? I only saw you once when I visited Old Xing in the army, and yet I could still recognize you on the street today. My eyes aren't in vain."
Qu Si smiled faintly and responded, "I really didn't expect Mr. Wang to still remember me."
Wang Yixun: "I have a very picky eye for people. I only remember handsome men and beautiful women."
"Alright." Xing Yu said, "Let's eat."
The whole meal was quite pleasant and comfortable.
Lin Yan sat quietly next to Xing Yu, listening to their conversation.
The hand hanging on the knee was always covered by Xing Yu's palm, and was caressed as if to comfort her from time to time.
Seeing that she was bored, Xing Yu leaned close to her ear and whispered to her, "Ayan, let's finish this glass of wine and go home."
Lin Yan: "It's okay, I'll wait for you. You guys finally have a reunion with your comrades, and it's Wang Yixun's birthday, so don't spoil their fun."
"Hey! Old Xing!" Wang Yixun, who was in high spirits, shouted at Xing Yu, "Stop being so annoying with Yanyan. Drink up!"
They continued drinking and chatting.
But Lin Yan always felt that there was a strange and inquiring gaze piercing through her from time to time.
When she followed his gaze, his eyes quickly slid away...
At this moment, her cell phone rang.
A text message came from an unfamiliar number.
There was no text in the message, but it contained that glaringly clear photo...
Lin Yan turned off the screen with trembling hands, her face pale.
"Ayan." Xing Yu felt the cold sweat on her palms and looked at her: "What's wrong?"
Lin Yan smiled and said, "My stomach feels uncomfortable. I'm going to the bathroom."
Lin Yan quickly went to the bathroom to calm her shaken mood.
He took out his cell phone and called Song Yanzheng directly.
The call took a long time to connect, and Song Yanzheng's weak voice came from the receiver.
"Yan Yan..."
She didn't hear anything unusual in Song Yanzheng's voice, and the emotions that had been pent up for several hours burst out.
"Song Yanzheng, do you have to be so despicable? Do you have to use this method to disgust me? Yes! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be living well now, so I have always been grateful to you in my heart and regard you as a very special existence in my heart..."
"Even after you married Xing Yingxue, I never blamed you... That's because I know you're gentle, kind, and have good character. You wouldn't try to play the broken window game with me anyway."
"But I still underestimated human nature, underestimated you..."
"Song Yanzheng, I'll tell you clearly that I'm no longer the cowardly and timid person I used to be. Since I've made up my mind to be with Xing Yu, I won't back down just because of your threats..."
"The worst that can happen is him finding out. The worst that can happen is I'll reveal my wounds and tell him the truth. The worst that can happen is...he'll despise me and not want me. The worst that can happen is I'll live alone for the rest of my life. It doesn't matter..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and then he spoke slowly with a look of silence and surprise.
"Yan Yan...what are you talking about? What did I threaten you with?"
"Photos." Lin Yan closed her eyes and trembled, "You are the only one who has the photos of me being abused..."
Song Yanzheng's voice became increasingly light, carrying a hint of pale and powerless explanation.
"Yan Yan... I didn't... I didn't send you any photos... I said... I won't hurt you..."
