Nineteen stars
The moment his entire face was exposed to their view, Chen Zheng was stunned for a moment, "Don't..."
Just when he was about to stop Ye Xincheng, he found that he had already walked up to the woman. He looked at Feng Chibai with a tense face. His expression was cold, and his eyes were still fixed on the woman.
Looking back, Lin Tang had already stood up. His gaze passed over Ye Xincheng who was walking towards her, and he was entangled with Feng Chibai directly, with a wanton smile on his lips.
"Beauty, are you interested..."
Ye Xincheng hadn't finished speaking when Lin Tang suddenly pushed him away without even a glance. She brushed past him without a care in the world and walked in one direction.
This was the first time he was ignored like this. He was stunned for a moment. When he turned around, the woman had already sat next to Feng Chibai.
He hurried back and saw the woman putting her hand on Feng Chibai's shoulder. The two were very close to each other, but there was no trace of impatience or annoyance on Feng Chibai's face.
He sat down at the other end of Feng Chibai. Although the woman was pretty, out of humanitarianism, he still reminded her softly, "Brother, you're married."
You shouldn't get so close to other people of the opposite sex.
Ye Xincheng understood that flirting with girls was fine, but the Feng family was a large one. If this little gossip got to Old Master Feng's ears, Feng Chibai would be in for a beating.
But Feng Chibai didn't hear it or what, and ignored his words. Instead, he turned his eyes to look at the woman.
Lin Tang glanced at what he was holding and chuckled, "Just drink water when you come to the bar."
Without waiting for his answer, she suggested: "Let's clink glasses?"
Feng Chibai looked at her quietly for a few seconds, raised his glass and clinked it with hers, then withdrew his gaze and drank the water leisurely.
Ye Xincheng looked at their actions and was stunned again. This time, his tone was a little anxious, but he still didn't dare to speak too loudly: "No, buddy, you are married!"
This reminder still has no response.
Feng Chibai put down the cup and turned his gaze to Lin Tang again, "Aren't you worried about smelling of alcohol and being discovered by the old man when you go back?"
He didn't deliberately lower his voice, so it fell clearly into Ye Xincheng's ears. He was suddenly confused and began to think about their relationship again.
Lin Tang's expression was calm: "Didn't you say you wouldn't go back to the old house tonight?"
Feng Chibai frowned, thinking over what they had said that day, realizing she had misunderstood him. He took the wine glass from Lin Tang's hand, casually placed it on the table, and asked, "How long do you plan to stay here?"
Lin Tang glanced at his friends. Zhao Yingxun had also arrived without him noticing. He figured they probably had no plans to leave so early, so he said, "I'll be back as soon as you do."
But the next second, he uttered two words calmly: "Now."
Lin Tang: “…”
This is unnecessary.
Feng Chibai stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked down at her again, as if asking, "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Lin Tang gritted his teeth and smiled, then stood up reluctantly.
"Wait." Ye Xincheng stared at the two of them. The doubts in his mind became clearer, but he still wanted to ask: "What is your relationship?"
Seeing his unbelieving look, Chen Zheng couldn't help but laugh.
Ye Xincheng glanced at him and called out hesitantly, "Sister-in-law?"
Lin Tang tilted his head and waved naturally: "Hi."
Ye Xincheng: “…”
"Let's go." Feng Chibai reminded.
Lin Tang said "oh" and said something to Zhao Yingxun as he passed by. Then he didn't plan to wait for Feng Chibai and just walked forward.
But Feng Chibai paused, his face stern, and whispered to Zhao Yingxun, "Three million. Send the contract to my office tomorrow. Let me know when she comes to the bar."
Zhao Yingxun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly his eyes widened as he reacted. He pretended to be serious and suppressed his laughter: "Okay, President Xiaofeng."
*
The first rain in April.
That night, Lin Tang had to work overtime, so she told Feng Chibai not to come and wait for her. Since he had some things to attend to at home, Feng Chibai agreed. But out of humanitarian consideration, he still had his driver come and pick her up.
The rain started suddenly in the afternoon and has continued until now, with no sign of letting up.
She didn't bring an umbrella, and when she hurried into the car under the pretext of someone holding an umbrella for her, her body got wet in several places.
When the car stopped at the door of the old house, the driver handed Lin Tang an umbrella, but Lin Tang refused to take it. After all, it was his own umbrella, and he couldn't let others get wet just to keep himself dry.
So he decided to send a message to Feng Chibai, asking him to send an umbrella. However, just as he opened the chat interface and had no time to type, someone suddenly knocked on the car window.
Lin Tang looked up and saw Feng Yunjing outside the car, holding an umbrella and half leaning over to meet her gaze.
He still had a smile on his face, and raised his voice a little as he asked, "Do you have an umbrella? Do you want to come with me?"
Lin Tang was stunned for a moment, then looked away to see the rain outside, which was still not letting up. In this situation, calling Feng Chibai out again seemed quite inhumane.
She nodded, and the moment she opened the car door, the big umbrella blocked the rain falling above her.
On the path leading to the gate, Lin Tang suddenly asked, "How did you know it was me?"
Feng Yunjing smiled and said, "I recognize it. It's his car."
Lin Tang was even more confused: "What if your brother is in the car too?"
Their relationship has never been very harmonious. She couldn't understand why he was so bold to come over. Wasn't he afraid that they would quarrel again?
Feng Yunjing explained: "Because at this time, he should be at home."
Then there is only one possibility, the person in the car is not Feng Chibai.
So he walked over.
Lin Tang said "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.
After entering the old house and changing my shoes at the entrance, I suddenly heard a conversation coming from the side hall. It was more like a scolding than a conversation.
"Yunhe's sales have dropped significantly this quarter. Has Koike been slacking off this month?"
"Or maybe after getting married, you think you have it all figured out, and your mindset changes completely."
"That's impossible. Third brother has always been the one who values his career the most. Maybe there are other reasons."
"If you ask me, it's not good to hand over power to the younger generation too early. They lack training, their spirits are unstable, and they will always have ups and downs."
…
The sounds came one after another, and those who were sitting in the side hall, without exception, pointed their arrows at one person.
But no matter what they said, Lin Tang never heard his reply.
That's not like him at all.
Thinking that he had been scolded stupidly, Lin Tang hurriedly changed his shoes and strode towards the direction where the sound came from.
When they heard the footsteps, everyone stopped talking and looked in the same direction.
Lin Tang's sleeves were soaked in several places, and there were a few splashes on his body. Behind him, Feng Yunjing also followed.
Feng Chibai glanced at the two of them expressionlessly, looked at Lin Tang for a moment, and then withdrew his gaze indifferently.
But in Lin Tang's eyes, this look was misunderstood as a poor little guy who was exhausted and silent because he was bullied by everyone.
After all, he was her husband in name only, and he had really helped her a lot, so she felt she needed to seek justice for him.
So, she walked straight up to the old man in front of everyone. Even Feng Chibai was stunned for a moment, not sure what she was going to do.
The next second, she suddenly squatted down, her thin fingers resting on the handle, trying her best to act obedient, which was completely inconsistent with her usual appearance. She pointed at everyone and asked, "Grandpa, why are they bullying my husband?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned. They had never expected that she would directly fight ten people alone, shooting everyone indiscriminately. Everyone knew how much the old man liked her, and in an instant, no one dared to speak out.
The moment he heard her words, Feng Chibai's heart trembled, and he looked at her in disbelief. After a moment of trance, he suppressed the unnatural feeling and withdrew his gaze again.
From the moment he looked at the documents, he remained silent. It wasn't until Lin Tang pointed it out so clearly that the old man finally spoke up and said to everyone, "Alright, it's just a few mistakes this quarter. Boss, you weren't as good as Xiaochi when you were young."
The old man said the last sentence to Feng Junye, after all, he was the one who talked the most just now.
Having achieved his goal, Lin Tang stood up, and his half-wet clothes appeared in front of everyone again.
The old man saw it, frowned, and said, "Why are you all wet? Go upstairs and change your clothes quickly, don't catch a cold."
After that, he said to the housekeeper, "Have someone send a cup of ginger tea to the room later."
Lin Tang politely nodded to the old man, threw his bag to Feng Chibai, and winked: "Help me carry it up."
After saying this, she turned around and walked towards the escalator.
There were footsteps following her from behind.
Back in the room, Feng Chibai put her bag away, walked over to her, and said softly, "Thank you."
Lin Tang glanced at him nonchalantly: "It's a small matter. We are husband and wife, and your wife supports you."
Although she was initially resistant when he proposed this agreement, she quickly changed her mind once she agreed. At this moment, she seemed to have completely embraced this role.
Feng Chibai leaned quietly on the sofa, watching her open the wardrobe and pack her clothes. After a pause, he asked, "Why did you get wet?"
Lin Tang took out his pajamas, turned to look at him, and pointed out the window and said, "You don't know how heavy the rain is outside."
Feng Chibai remained silent.
By the time she came out of the shower, it was half an hour later.
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening, Feng Chibai, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up and said to the woman who was approaching, "Grandpa just sent someone to bring a cup of ginger tea. Come and have some."
Lin Tang uttered an "oh" and let her tied hair down. She sat down next to Feng Chibai and took the cup of ginger tea, which was still hot.
After taking a few sips, she suddenly looked at Feng Chibai with an ambiguous smile on her lips.
Feng Chibai always felt that she had bad intentions, so he raised his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Tang didn't reply, but looked at the transparent glass above the door. The lights outside were off, and everyone else should have gone back to their rooms.
but…
Ordering takeout is against the house rules, and the door is locked at this time. Even if she asked the delivery guy to throw it in over the not-too-high wall, it would easily be discovered.
She hissed thoughtfully, then suddenly leaned closer to him and asked, "Hey, will I be discovered if I secretly cook a midnight snack?"
really.
Feng Chibai's expression didn't change at all, and he said calmly, "You can try."
"Then I'll try." Lin Tang's smile deepened, and he blurted out the words almost without hesitation.
Feng Chibai: "..."
Lin Tang was indeed not joking. She put down the ginger tea and walked to the door.
After opening the door, he was not in a hurry to go out. He looked around and found that there was indeed no movement, so he kindly helped Feng Chibai close the door.
After tiptoeing downstairs, she slipped into the kitchen in the dark and turned on a small warm light. The light was not bright, and it would not be easy to find if she hadn't come out to check.
This was the first time that Lin Tang had run to the kitchen since she had lived here for so long. She opened the refrigerator and found it was fully stocked, but it also made her hesitate for a moment.
The refrigerator is so full that if one or two items are missing, it would be easy to notice.
She decided to try another trick and opened the cabinet next to her to check. Although she tried to control the volume, she could still hear some rustling noises.
"What are you doing secretly?" A voice came unexpectedly from behind, with a faint smile.
