Without saying a word.
The two of them kissed each other passionately, like two oxygen-deprived fish, eager to draw the source of life from each other.
It’s done.
It's late at night.
Xu Wen lay in Li Lin's arms and continued the previous topic, saying, "Let me be honest first. I told you before that my father is a veteran employee of the State Taxation Bureau. His name is Xu Yongchang... My mother works in the hospital, and my brother is now doing business..."
She couldn't tell Li Lin directly that my father was a ministerial-level leader, as this would be considered bragging and might offend Li Lin. Similarly, she couldn't directly tell him that my brother was the boss of a certain company... This couldn't be rushed. Li Lin had to slowly get to know her family and have a process of adaptation, which would make it easier for her to accept it.
But she did reveal everything. For example, the name "Xu Yongchang". If Li Lin had a little political sensitivity, he would have taken the initiative to check it online. Wouldn't he have known at a glance that Xu Yongchang was the director of the State Taxation Bureau? Xu Wen was the daughter of a senior leader?
When Li Lin asked her, she would tell him everything and introduce the family situation to him in detail.
By then, he could naturally and solemnly introduce his brother Xu Yillong to Li Lin.
After all, brother Xu Yillong is abroad all year round and only returns to China occasionally, so they don't contact each other often. It makes sense for Xu Wen to pretend that she doesn't know he is in Pingyang.
Li Lin will surely understand, right?
She thought so, so she only revealed part of it to Li Lin...
Li Lin is definitely politically sensitive.
When he first heard the name "Xu Yongchang", he felt it sounded familiar, but he didn't think deeply about it. He just said "hmm" twice while listening to Xu Wen's introduction, nodded seriously, and said, "After I finish the project, I will go to Yanjing to visit my uncle, aunt and brother. Then I will toast them with two glasses of wine, solemnly mention our marriage to the two elders, and listen to their opinions."
Xu Wen thought Li Lin would ask "Who is Xu Yongchang?", but to her disappointment, at this moment, Li Lin seemed to only have the marriage between him and Xu Wen in his mind, and did not think about politics. He even did not bother to ask about his brother who was the CEO of the company...
What a straight man!
Xu Wen sighed secretly. It would be even more difficult to say it directly now. My father is the minister, my brother is the general manager, and my mother is the dean... Isn't this just showing off blatantly?
How could Xu Wen, such a well-behaved and sensible girl, show off her family background so casually?
She still had to wait for Li Lin to react, and when he asked, she would give further details.
Xu Wen said listlessly, "Oh, my dad and my brother both like to drink, and they've mentioned several times that they want to have a couple of drinks with you to test your alcohol tolerance... By the way, Xiao Linzi, have you always lived with your aunt? Your parents...?"
She knew that Li Lin was an orphan, but what kind of orphan would not mention his biological parents, not even knowing their names and life stories? She was very curious about what kind of misfortune had happened to Li Lin, and she asked carefully, fearing that she would hurt Li Lin's heart.
Li Lin changed his usual behavior, with a faint smile on his face, as if he had already let it go, and said softly to Xu Wen, "I only know that I have parents, but I know nothing about them... I am not hiding anything from you on purpose, it's just that I really don't know anything. I grew up with my aunt, and in my heart, she is my biological mother."
Xu Wen said "Oh" softly, then rubbed Li Lin's chest and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for reminding you of sad things. I'm not curious anymore and I won't ask you this question again. Please forgive my recklessness."
Li Lin rubbed her head lovingly and said with a calm smile, "Silly girl, how could I blame you? In fact, I have already let it go. It doesn't matter who my parents are. Aunt is my real mother. I will be filial to her and repay her kindness in raising me."
Xu Wen nodded obediently, "Well, from today on, Auntie is also my biological mother, I will be filial to her with you!"
The next morning.
Li Lin went to work and called Xu Wen to say that he was busy with work and would not be home for lunch, and he was sorry.
Xu Wen felt a little disappointed...but suddenly she remembered that she had an appointment with her brother Xu Yillong today. Why not go to Pingyang city to visit her injured brother while Li Lin is not at home?
She felt very uncomfortable when she thought about Xu Yillong's head being cut open and having to get several stitches.
Both of them were spoiled since childhood. Except for Xu Yongchang occasionally using a ruler to punish Xu Yillong at home, Xu Yillong had never suffered such grievances outside.
It seemed that Xu Yilong was physically hurt, but in fact, he was hit even harder. After all, when did a young man from Beijing end up getting beaten? If this were to get out, wouldn't people in the industry laugh their heads off?
After sending a text message to Xu Yilong, Xu Wen got dressed, walked out and said to Li Rong, "Aunt, I want to go shopping in the city and come back before the evening."
Li Rong said apologetically, "Xiao Lin was supposed to accompany you to the city, but as you can see, he is too busy and has not been home all day, ah..."
Li Rong turned around and went back to the house. When she came out, she was holding a stack of banknotes in her hand. She stuffed them into Xu Wen's pocket without saying anything. "I can't go shopping with you either. Go shopping by yourself first. Buy whatever you like. Don't be stingy with the money."
Xu Wen quickly declined, "I have money, aunt, I really don't want it..."
Li Rong, however, was determined to put the money into Xu Wen's pocket, so Xu Wen had no choice but to accept it silently.
Xu Wen didn't know what to say, so she hugged Li Rong playfully and said with a smile, "Aunt, you are so good to me..."
Li Rong also smiled knowingly, feeling a surge of warmth in her heart. She patted Xu Wen on the back and said, "Okay, okay, go quickly. Come back early in the evening and I'll make you something delicious."
