Seventy-five stars
Lin Tang's heart tightened and he subconsciously turned around to avoid it.
Ying Yu had just come down from upstairs, about to leave. Seeing Lin Tang heading back, he thought she had left something behind. As he got closer, he immediately spotted Feng Chibai approaching from behind her. He couldn't help but laugh, whispering, "Boss, someone's coming after you."
Lin Tang put his arm on his shoulder and said through gritted teeth, "Shut up, I don't want to see him now."
Thinking he was right, he patiently said, "Boss, a harmonious family brings prosperity."
But Lin Tang couldn't hear a word he said. She put her other hand on her waist and looked around panickily.
Didn’t we agree to give her time to think about it? Why is she coming to kill us again?
Aren’t you busy at work?
Doesn’t such a large group need management?
Are you so free every day?
Is it really the rebellious stage?
She asked herself several questions in her mind, but she didn't dare to look back, so she didn't see that Feng Chibai was already one step away from her.
But Ying Yu was facing Feng Chibai, and he saw everything clearly. Seeing his gaze fall on the hand that Lin Tang had placed on his shoulder, with a hint of scrutiny and displeasure, Ying Yu panicked. With a stiff smile, he grasped Lin Tang's forearm and raised it high, saying politely, "Hello, President Feng. You're not mistaken. This is your wife. Goodbye, President Feng!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly looked away, seizing the opportunity to run.
Lin Tang's eyes widened, and she stared at his back in shock. But soon, she gave a dry laugh, turned around slowly, and said casually, "Why are you here?"
Feng Chibai looked at her with a smile and said bluntly, "Since you've made your position clear, I can't just sit there and wait to be shot."
Lin Tang understood what he meant, but subconsciously tried to avoid the topic: "Execution? This is Country C. It's illegal for citizens to carry guns."
Feng Chibai's smile deepened. He knew she was pretending to be stupid, but he didn't expose her.
"I'll go first." Lin Tang glanced at him, then looked away, intending to leave past him.
But then I heard a sentence: "I'll take you there."
"No need." Lin Tang gestured to stop her and replied without hesitation, "I just want to take a walk."
"Then I'll walk with you." Feng Chibai said stubbornly.
Lin Tang was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "If you insist on tormenting yourself, then I can't stop you."
Feng Chibai finally insisted on staying with her.
The sky darkens quickly on winter nights. At this moment, the sky is pitch black. The street lights on both sides of the street are on, and the warm yellow light is reflected on the two people.
There was a long silence along the way. Feng Chibai looked up at the dust floating in the light of the street lamp, like snowflakes, and suddenly asked, "Is it cold in Country R?"
Lin Tang stared straight ahead and said calmly, "It's much colder than Country C."
There was another silence.
"Why did you borrow money from Zhao Yingxun?" This time, Feng Chibai's gaze fell on her face.
But Lin Tang's expression remained unchanged: "No money."
She said it bluntly, but then added, trying to cover it up: "So, you really have to think about it carefully, otherwise one day you'll find out, hey, I maxed out your card."
Feng Chibai smiled and said, "I've never seen such a scene before, and I can't imagine it either. I'm quite curious."
The light extended, casting the shadows of the two people at an angle, and there was a bright spot in front.
Lin Tang met his gaze and said with a pursed lip, "Boss Feng is indeed very patient with everything."
Her eyes paused, and she hesitantly asked the question in her heart: "Why... did you start breaking the rules?"
They both stopped at the same time, and Feng Chibai took a step closer to her, half blocking her view in front of her.
Lin Tang saw him staring at her without restraint, just as she had when she first met him in the hospital. The next second, she heard a clear voice: "Whoever is in power makes the rules. There are no such rules here."
"So." He paused for a moment, then said firmly, "Lin Tang, I hope you come back."
At that moment, my heart felt like it was being pulled by all the blood vessels in all directions, beating so fast it threatened to burst through. The air around my ears seemed to stagnate, blocking out all external sounds, even the hum of the cars becoming silent.
Her eyelashes were trembling, but she felt a little embarrassed at the moment, so she pushed him away and said hastily, "I'm here, I won't see you off."
After walking quickly back home, she took out a bottle of plum wine from the refrigerator, poured herself a glass, sat on the sofa and just took a sip when her cell phone suddenly vibrated.
She clicked on it and saw an unread message.
Feng Chibai: [I heard there's a geomagnetic storm tonight, be careful of insomnia]
Sui Sui: [Stop talking nonsense]
Feng Chibai: What are you doing?
Lin Tang chuckled and replied slowly: Mr. Feng’s method of pursuing girls is a bit low-level.
Feng Chibai: [So, this includes me in the consideration range.]
Sui Sui: [Don’t you want me to do this?]
Feng Chibai: [It seems that yesterday's talk was not in vain]
Lin Tang drank the wine in one gulp. The cold touch continued to stimulate her. She leaned back loosely, sighed, and was about to turn off her phone when another call came in.
As soon as he picked up the phone, Zhao Yingxun's voice came from the other side and asked, "Lin Tang, what do you think of our relationship?"
After so many years of understanding, Lin Tang knew what he was going to do without listening too much, so he said impatiently: "If you have something to do, get out."
"Look at what this has caused." Zhao Yingxun didn't get angry after being told this. Instead, he insisted, "We absolutely cannot ruin our friendship for a man!"
Lin Tang frowned and said, "Speak human language."
Knowing that she would lose her temper if he continued to talk nonsense, Zhao Yingxun quickly got to the point: "Hey, isn't this the same contract as last time? I found that Mr. Feng and I were about to get less, but he refused to give it to me. Do you think you can..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Tang cut off the call.
She knew what he was planning without having to think too much.
The other party had obviously anticipated this and sent a screenshot of the chat the next second after hanging up.
-Zhao Yingxun: Feng Dong Feng Dong Feng Dong, no matter what I say, no matter what I say [pitiful].
-Feng Chibai: If you ask someone else, it might be more effective than asking in person.
-Zhao Yingxun: [Kneeling and begging].jpg
I originally thought it was Zhao Yingxun's own bad idea, but it turns out there was someone with great guidance behind it. Lin Tang gritted his teeth and typed out three words before sending it.
Sui Sui: [Let him go]

The next day, as the get off work was about to end, Lin Tang was in the office discussing some arrangements for the next morning when there was a sudden knock on the door.
Thinking that it was another staff member who wanted to see her, Lin Tang politely called out, "Come in."
But the moment the door opened and she saw Zhao Yingxun, her face instantly fell.
Zhao Yingxun smiled at her. He had originally thought that the access control of the institute had changed and it would be difficult for him to get in. But today, he was lucky. As soon as he arrived, he ran into a friend he knew from the institute who was about to leave. He simply asked him to help him scan his face, fearing that Lin Tang would leave and go straight to her office as soon as he entered.
The matter was urgent, and he didn't care about the others at the moment. He came over and called out in a nagging voice: "Hey, Lin Tang, Mu Mu Tang, please do me a favor."
He went to Feng Chibai to negotiate again this morning, but the negotiations were fruitless. He really had no other choice but to come here honestly to find a cheat.
Lin Tang frowned and stepped back, putting his hand in front of him: "Stop, I take back what I just said, turn right and get out."
Zhao Yingxun had clearly come with the intention of not giving up, and shamelessly added, "Ah, with the relationship we have, can you bear to watch me fail miserably and then be heartbroken?"
The two of them were tangling, while Ying Yu watched in shock. He couldn't help but wonder if this was the man she'd been talking about pursuing her. The key point was that their relationship was very unusual. He had seen Zhao Yingxun once before, with Lin Tang, but they hadn't been so affectionate then. Could this be the legendary drama of friends turning lovers?
This is absolutely not allowed!
So he quickly whispered a reminder: "Boss, you are married. Although you are beautiful and talented, if you really find a mistress, I will condemn you on the moral level."
He originally thought that they could just talk about this in private. He and Zhao Yingxun were not familiar with each other, so it was not easy for him to say anything to his face. But he did not expect Lin Tang to say it directly: "What mistress? Show some respect to him and me. Do I think I am worthy of him?"
Zhao Yingxun was speechless for a moment, and said weakly to Lin Tang: "Please show some respect to me."
This made Ying Yu feel awkward. After a dry laugh, he said awkwardly, "You guys talk first. I'll step aside."
After he left, Lin Tang's phone suddenly vibrated. She took it out and checked. It was a message from Feng Chibai.
Feng Chibai: [I have to work overtime tonight, so I can't pick you up.]
Feng Chibai: [Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to give up]
Sui Sui: [You don’t need to tell me about this]
Feng Chibai: [You said it so decisively, yet it makes me sad.]
Zhao Yingxun was standing nearby and naturally saw what was on the screen. He tutted his tongue twice and couldn't help but say, "If you ask me, he can't forget you at all."
Lin Tang glanced at him and said, "You saw it again?"
Zhao Yingxun rolled his eyes and began to coax him again, "This is a great opportunity. If he's willing to spend millions on me for you, then he definitely loves you deeply."
However, such a lame excuse made Lin Tang feel like he was treating her like a fool. She picked up a book beside her and pretended to throw it at him: "Don't force me to kick you out."
Zhao Yingxun dodged and said quickly, "I was wrong, I was wrong. But...even though I've only caused you trouble, I'm really begging you just this once. If we can make this deal, I'll definitely not bother you again. I mean what I say!"
Lin Tang knew Zhao Yingxun well enough to know that he was a man of his word. She could tell the difference between a single annoyance and a repeated one. But at this moment, she still had to reason with him: "When it comes to matters of personal gain, do you think he'll listen to me? Is he a three-year-old child? Besides, don't I have to go to work on weekdays?"
She didn't want to take time off from work to help him do this.
Although Zhao Yingxun felt that what she said made sense, judging from the message from Feng Chibai, it seemed that if they went there, there was a high probability of success. So he suggested, "On the weekend, he will definitely be willing to work overtime for you."
"Besides." He couldn't help but smile gossipingly when he thought of the chat log he had just seen. "Look, you two have already started to have some feelings. Don't you want to make this fire burn even more vigorously?"
