Chapter 224 Going South (6)
The length of this paragraph was already beyond Lin Zhou's normal value, and Tian Xin didn't believe a single word of it. She looked at Lin Zhou with an expression that said, "I'm just watching you make this up for me."
By the time Lin Zhou finished speaking, she had already grasped several key pieces of information from his words and immediately asked, "Are you going on a business trip? Where are you going?"
"Suzhou!" Lin Zhou blurted out without any hesitation.
But it was precisely these two words that exposed him, and Tian Xin immediately exposed him: "Lin Zhou, before you make up your lies, can you at least do a little research and check whether this train goes to Suzhou?"
"Ah? Not coming?" Lin Zhou said with an annoyed look. "Oh, it's all that Xiao Li's fault. He can't even figure out how to book a ticket. This is really a problem. I have a client appointment tomorrow. What if he can't show up?"
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone and pretended to call Xiao Li to question him!
Seeing that he was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his face turned red, yet he still insisted on finishing the play, Tian Xin immediately felt like acting with him.
This guy is usually so serious, it's rare for him to be so childish like today, and he even looks a little cute! It would be a shame not to tease him a little!
She cleared her throat and offered him a suggestion: "It's not difficult. Get off at the next stop and walk north. There's a taxi stand there. Take a taxi and tell the driver you're going to the airport! Then call Xiao Li and ask her to book you the earliest flight to Shanghai Hongqiao tomorrow. Once you get to Shanghai, take another taxi to Suzhou. It's only 90 kilometers away and you'll be there soon!"
At this point, she glanced at the time naturally: "It's almost 10 o'clock now. The earliest flight will be after midnight. The flight from here to Shanghai takes less than an hour. Including the transfer, you should be able to have breakfast in Suzhou by 6 o'clock tomorrow morning at the latest! The shengjian and noodle soup there are good, you should try them!"
These words were spoken with great naturalness and seriousness. Not only had the route been planned, but the time had also been calculated. If he didn't say something, it would be difficult to end the conversation.
Lin Zhou frowned, looking very embarrassed: "Is it so troublesome? I'm afraid I can't figure it out! Otherwise... you can come with me!"
"How can that be? I still have things to do."
"Where are you going? How about I accompany you to do some errands first, and then we can go to Suzhou after we're done? There's no rush anyway, so it doesn't matter if we go a few days earlier or later!"
"Don't you have an appointment with someone for tomorrow?" Tian Xin asked, "Why? Are you going to cancel the appointment? Are you not going to do business anymore?"
"It's okay, I'm Party A! It's just a phone call, no problem at all!"
Having said this, Lin Zhou had completely let go. From his expression and demeanor, Tian Xin could see a long-lost sense of relaxation.
This kind of relaxation was not reflected in Lin Zhou in the past. Although he tried his best to hide it every time they met, Tian Xin could still feel the fatigue behind his pretended ease.
And at this moment, he was really relaxed, from the inside out.
Tian Xin couldn't act any longer and smiled, "Boss Lin, you're taking your annual leave, right? How many days do you plan to take?"
"I guess so!" Lin Zhou smiled. "It's a rare opportunity to come out, it would be a shame not to have some fun. It's at least 10 days a week!"
"So, you are determined to follow me?" Tian Xin took a step forward and looked up at Lin Zhou's eyes.
At this moment, there was almost no distance between them, and they could hug with just one hand. She saw the light that instantly rose in Lin Zhou's eyes, burning little by little, becoming scorching hot.
She put away the smile on her face, her expression became serious, and she questioned Lin Zhou one after another: "What? The company is no longer caring? No longer making money? Are you going to follow me wherever I say I'm going?"
How did you know I was going to Yiwu? Who told you? And you changed my ticket, didn't you? Are you childish enough to do such a thing?
These words are harsh and even a bit aggressive.
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lin Zhou felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, and the fire in his eyes was instantly extinguished.
The hands that he had just stretched out to hug her suddenly froze in mid-air. He didn't dare to close them, neither hug her nor hug her. He just stood there frozen.
"Didn't you say you missed me?" He forced a smile and turned to look at the moon outside the window: "I'm here now, in front of you. Aren't you surprised?"
"What did I tell you before? Do you remember?"
"Remember!"
"Remember?" Tian Xin sneered: "Then repeat it again!"
"You said that you would think of me when you see the moon." Lin Zhou said softly, still with that smile on his face that was uglier than crying.
It would have been fine if she hadn't said this. As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Xin exploded like a firecracker: "Is that what I'm talking about? Do you even know what I'm talking about?"
"I know!" Lin Zhou said in a deep voice: "I remember everything you said. But I don't understand, what are you angry about? Are you angry that I followed you without telling you in advance, or are you angry that I lied to you just now?
If it's because I lied to you just now, I apologize. I did lie, but if I didn't say that, would you let me stay?
Why am I here? The reasons are simple: first, to help you. Second, I'm worried about your safety.
As for how I knew this? You should know that this kind of thing is not difficult for me to do! I changed your ticket so that you can have a good rest and not have to squeeze in the crowd so hard!
Lin Zhou sighed and put his arm around her shoulders: "Do you understand after reading this?"
Tian Xin listened to him quietly, the expression on her face still not relaxing. Instead, she struggled out of his hand: "You come to help me? Do you know what I'm going to do?"
"Know!"
"So how are you going to help me?"
"That depends on how you need my help." Lin Zhou held her in his arms again, looked into her eyes lovingly, and said softly, "Tian Xin, no matter what you do, I will do my best, as long as you need me to!"
"What if I don't need it?"
Tian Xin struggled out again and took a few steps back. Looking at Lin Zhou's furrowed brow, she smiled bitterly and said, "Lin Zhou, am I a waste in your eyes? I can't live without you, right? Who am I? Is it worth you to spend so much effort on me and abandon everything again and again..."
She became more and more emotional as she spoke, her voice trembling slightly. By the last sentence, tears began to flow uncontrollably, becoming more and more violent.
Lin Zhou was startled and quickly went forward to hug her, trying to explain to her: "Why do you think so? You dare to do something as big as building a brand, who dares to call you a loser! I guess I can only help you with a small matter. You have to make the big decision yourself!"
Besides, I didn't just ignore you. When I knew you were coming to Yiwu yesterday, I immediately arranged everything at the company, so I felt relieved! Who would have thought you would be so angry? If I had known, I would have told you yesterday!"
"Really?" Tian Xin asked with red eyes: "You didn't lie to me?"
"Of course!" Lin Zhou held her face, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and smiled softly: "I was busy all night last night to catch today's train! I didn't even sleep. It would be fine if you didn't feel sorry for me, but you poured a basin of cold water on me. How unreasonable!"
