Chapter 93 Mom, I have a boyfriend
Lin Xu slept from the evening until the alarm clock rang the next morning.
My whole body aches, especially my waist, and somewhere else I can't describe.
Zhou Yan applied medicine to him last night. The cool ointment did have a relieving effect, but the lingering discomfort could not be ignored.
But this is not important, because when Lin Xu took a bath, both his body and mind were filled with happiness.
There were footsteps coming from the kitchen, the bedroom door was opened, and Zhou Yan appeared at the door.
"How do you feel? Do you want to take a day off today?" Zhou Yan sat on the edge of the bed, gently playing with the loose hair on Lin Xu's forehead, his eyes full of tenderness.
Lin Xu stretched out his hand, and Zhou Yan bent down tacitly to let him hug his neck and lifted him up.
"I can't ask for leave. After all that incident, the design department is in chaos, and the mess left by Chen Gu still needs to be cleaned up." Lin Xu leaned on Zhou Yan's shoulder and rubbed it, then he felt full of energy and wanted to get out of bed to wash up.
Zhou Yan picked him up and walked towards the bathroom.
"I'm fine... I can walk by myself..." Being mistaken for a patient, Lin Xu said in a low voice embarrassedly.
Zhou Yan kissed him on the forehead: "I know, but I feel bad."
Lin Xu laughed in his arms, swinging his legs, letting Zhou Yan hold him around and treat him as a key protected person.
The breakfast was very light, and Zhou Yan also brought lunch for Lin Xu.
"Don't eat random things outside recently. I'll prepare lunch for you until you feel better."
"That's not the case—" Lin Xu was a little flattered by Zhou Yan's meticulous care.
"As for that, be obedient." Zhou Yan rubbed his head.
The hygiene of food outside is not guaranteed, and if Lin Xu gets sick from eating it, he will be the one to suffer.
Nan Feng Lin Xu has never brought lunch to school since he was a child, not when he was at school and certainly not when he was at work.
It's quite novel.
"This must be the legendary daddy boyfriend." Lin Xu said to himself.
Zhou Yan glanced at him and raised his eyebrows, with some evil thoughts stirring in his heart.
When Lin Xu looked at him, he looked away and coughed lightly.
Lin Xu had no idea that he had dug himself a hole again.
Zhou Yan added two cushions on the passenger seat, trying his best to make Lin Xu sit more comfortably.
In fact, Lin Xu was not that fragile. Although Zhou Yan acted a little harshly, he did not hurt him.
But Zhou Yan was willing to take care of him, and he was willing to indulge in Zhou Yan's tenderness.
When they got to the company, they had to go to work separately.
The situation in the studio was just as Lin Xu had expected. After Chen Gu's actions, all the projects he was working on were stopped.
Han Jingyi held a meeting and handed the project over to Lin Xu and Teng Qiu.
Chen Gu was under investigation, and dismissal and prosecution were inevitable. Although Hong Mao was not seriously involved, he was taken advantage of and did stupid things. He was too embarrassed to stay in the company and resigned.
Suddenly, only two designers, Lin Xu and Teng Qiu, and several assistant designers were left in the design department.
"Thank you for your hard work. HR is already looking for a solution." Han Jingyi encouraged the team.
Lin Xu yawned secretly and uncontrollably, and even though he turned his head away, he was still seen by Han Jingyi who had been paying attention to him.
There was a very obvious kiss mark under the collar on the back of Lin Xu's neck.
Han Jingyi saw it clearly and felt depressed.
As early as half a month ago when Zhou Yan approached him to jointly resolve the bidding issue, Han Jingyi knew about his relationship with Lin Xu.
He was willing to cooperate with Zhou Yan not only because the problem was within his own company, but also because he wanted to make some compensation for the bullying he and Shen Xinji had done together.
Han Jingyi also knew the gap between himself and Zhou Yan, and accepted the fact that Lin Xu would never even look at him.
But the pain of accepting it in your heart and seeing it with your own eyes are different.
Han Jingyi took a deep breath and turned his grief and anger into motivation.
"I'll be very busy lately, so Teng Qiu will be in charge of the design department for now. Teng Qiu, you're an old veteran and more familiar with the company's affairs. Lin Xu, you'll work with Teng Qiu and mainly control the quality of the work. Is there any problem?"
Teng Qiu and Lin Xu said in unison: "No problem."
"Okay, then let's adjourn the meeting and get back to work. If I need to leave, just call me. After you're done with this, it's time for a holiday. I'll give you bonuses so you can go out and have some fun."
"Thank you, Mr. Han!"
No matter how much encouragement we give, it is not as real as bonuses and vacations. Everyone cheered up and went back to work.
"Eh? Aren't you going to eat?" After being busy all morning, Teng Qiu was hungry. He got up and prepared to go downstairs to eat but found that Lin Xu didn't move.
Lin Xu took out the lunch box from his backpack: "I brought lunch."
"You brought food?" Teng Qiu leaned over to see what seemed like a miracle. "What delicious food did you bring?"
Lin Xu opened the lid of the box and showed it to her: "They are all home-cooked dishes."
"Wow, it smells so good and looks healthy." Teng Qiu praised.
Lin Xu was a little embarrassed: "Yeah, it's delicious."
Teng Qiu looked around the office to see if anyone was there, and asked with a smile, "Did Mr. Zhou do this?"
Lin Xu immediately stuttered guiltily: "How did you know..."
Teng Qiu was speechless: "Isn't it written all over your face? Okay, you eat. I, who have no one to care about me, will go eat by myself."
Zhou Yan hadn't been in the company for half a month. He was very busy at work and couldn't come back at noon. He just sent a message to Lin Xu asking her to have a good meal and have a good rest.
After Lin Xu finished his meal, he took some time to go to the lounge. After thinking it over, he called home.
Zhou Yan has already told his family about it, so he should also tell them about it.
When the call was connected, Lin Xu got straight to the point: "Mom, I have a boyfriend."
Before I could say the next word, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.
Lin Xu: ………
The second time the call went through, Lin Xu quickly called out to her mother, "Mom, Mom! Listen to me, this time is really different!"
"Mom doesn't answer the phone, it's me." This time it was Lin Xu's eldest sister, Lin Yao, who answered the phone.
"Oh, sister, why are you back?"
"I'm pregnant and want to eat my mom's cooking. Come back and stay for a few days."
"Ah? Pregnant again? Sis, you're amazing!"
"What do you mean by again? This is only my second one, okay?" Lin Yao touched her belly.
"How many months has it been? Why didn't you tell me?" Lin Xu had a quarrel with his family because of his sexual orientation, but he had always had a good relationship with his sister.
Lin Yao is also a straightforward person. When Lin Xu made mistakes when he was a child, she would beat him, but she was also the one who doted on Lin Xu the most in the family.
"It's been eight months and you're not coming back. What's the point of telling you? What did you just say to mom? Do you have a new boyfriend?"
"Yes. Sister, his name is Zhou Yan. He's a very good person. His mother came to see us the day before yesterday."
Lin Yao was a little surprised: "Does his family agree?"
"Well...it was hard for me to accept at first, but now I agree."
Lin Yao nodded: "Then this time is indeed different. If that's the case, I'll bring the baby back to see him when I have time. Don't worry, I'll talk to my parents. They won't dare say anything because I'm pregnant."
