When Xu Xinchen heard Lin Lina's question, he smiled gently and said to Lin Lina, "Oh, really? This morning I heard someone mention that you were chatting happily with someone in a car. That car didn't look like a taxi; it looked more like a private car."
As Xu Xinchen spoke, she took out a pack of tissues from her backpack, pulled one out and handed it to Lin Lina: "Wipe the sweat off your forehead. Are you very hot? Look at all the sweat on your head."
Normally, Lin Lina would definitely have slapped Xu Xinchen's hand away, and might even have scolded him for being a busybody or something.
But now, perhaps because she had something to hide, Lin Lina not only didn't say anything to Xu Xinchen, but also took the paper from Xu Xinchen with trembling hands, her expression was suspicious and uncertain, and her eyes were full of panic as she looked at Xu Xinchen.
Xu Xinchen, seemingly oblivious to Lin Lina's gaze, continued, "Where were we? The description of that private car reminded me of one I know. My boyfriend's car looks almost identical to it. We're quite a coincidence; maybe your boyfriend knows my girlfriend too."
Before Lin Lina could reply, Xu Xinchen continued, "How about this, let's arrange for our respective partners to meet up sometime? If they really know each other, then there's no need for us to keep going against each other."
Lin Lina was sweating profusely, staring at Xu Xinchen with terrified eyes. She desperately wanted to know what Xu Xinchen was going to say.
What exactly does "番话" mean?
Did they discover that she was interested in her boyfriend, or did they simply overhear someone say that she was talking to someone in a car, which is why they asked this question?
Xu Xinchen didn't care what Lin Lina was thinking. After saying what was on her mind, she slowly turned around, picked up her backpack, and smiled at Lin Lina: "But if you don't want to, then forget it. I'm not the kind of person who likes to force people."
Lin Lina smiled, her face pale. She opened her mouth as if to explain something to Xu Xinchen, but Xu Xinchen left the office on his own, leaving Lin Lina standing there alone, her face turning pale and then flushed, a truly fascinating sight.
When Xu Xinchen arrived at the company building, Chen Ningsheng was already waiting for her in the same spot. Xu Xinchen jogged over and knocked on the car window. A click sound came from inside the car. Xu Xinchen pulled hard on the door handle and got into the car, her face showing displeasure.
Seeing Xu Xinchen's unhappy expression, Chen Ningsheng immediately asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Did Lin Lina cause you trouble again?"
Thinking that Xu Xinchen might have been bullied by Lin Lina again today, Chen Ningsheng immediately became nervous, and his expression towards Xu Xinchen became much more serious.
Xu Xinchen shook her head, reached out and grabbed Chen Ningsheng's wrist, staring into Chen Ningsheng's eyes, and asked, "Tell me, did you talk to Lin Lina today?"
Xu Xinchen cut to the chase. She had no doubt that Chen Ningsheng knew who Lin Lina was. Based on her understanding of Chen Ningsheng, if he didn't recognize Lin Lina, he wouldn't have said a word to her at all.
In short, the driver should have been sent back to the company much earlier.
Upon hearing Xu Xinchen's question, Chen Ningsheng chuckled softly. So that's what it was about. Chen Ningsheng grasped Xu Xinchen's wrist in return: "That's right, I did talk to Lin Lina this morning, but don't worry."
Chen Ningsheng said as if to assure, "I only said a couple of sentences, and did nothing else. So you don't need to be jealous. In my heart, no one is more important than you, and no one can replace you."
Xu Xinchen glared at Chen Ningsheng with a coquettish expression: "That's not what I meant. It's just that why did you have to talk to her for no reason? She's not a good person. I'm telling you, you'd better stay away from her."
Upon hearing Xu Xinchen's words, Chen Ningsheng said with a wry smile, "Of course I know I should stay away from her. Do you think I'm a child? There was a reason why I talked to her this morning."
As Chen Ningsheng spoke, he explained to Xu Xinchen how Lin Lina had approached him that morning.
As Xu Xinchen listened, his brows furrowed tightly, and he said with an unhappy expression, "It seems that this Lin Lina really is interested in you. I really shouldn't have let her go so easily."
Xu Xinchen was filled with remorse. If she had known that Lin Lina was so shameless that morning, pretending to be sick and in pain to get Chen Ningsheng to take her to the hospital, she should have just taken action in the office and given Lin Lina a good beating so that Lin Lina would actually need to go to the hospital.
Chen Ningsheng looked at Xu Xinchen's angry face and laughed with pleasure. He reached out and patted Xu Xinchen's head: "Alright, don't worry. Her little tricks are no match for me. I already made her lose face this morning."
"Having saved face, were you very unhappy when you entered the office?"
Xu Xinchen's memory was awakened by Chen Ningsheng's words. Thinking of Lin Lina's angry look when she entered the office that morning, she immediately laughed happily: "That's true. You made her too angry this morning. The way she looked when she entered the office scared me."
Xu Xinchen's words were obviously an exaggeration. She wasn't afraid at all in the morning, and even wanted to provoke Lin Lina. However, Chen Linsheng came out, and with such a big mess, of course she had to make Chen Ningsheng feel a little nervous.
Chen Ningsheng spread his hands innocently: "This is not my fault. It's not like I asked her to come up and talk to me. She offered herself up to be humiliated. I just fulfilled her wish."
Xu Xinchen was initially filled with unpleasantness when she came down, but now that she saw Chen Ningsheng looking innocent and having bullied someone, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, and all the anger in her heart vanished at that moment.
With a delighted expression, she reached out and pinched the flesh on Chen Ningsheng's cheek: "You have the nerve to say that. You look like a femme fatale, making young girls fall head over heels for you. I think you should just get your face scratched up."
