Chapter 50 A Sharp Gaze
"Then let's move it forward a bit."
Lin Feiyan stood up and threw himself into Ye Qingning's beanbag chair, stretching out his limbs, but his voice was icy: "What? You can't even do this little thing?"
"Of course," Chen Chu replied. "I'll arrange it right away."
"Um."
Lin Feiyan hung up the phone and lightly twirled his fingers.
Whatever the reason Ye Qingning suddenly didn't attend the banquet, he was determined to take her to confront Lin Younan.
He wanted Lin Younan to know that Ye Qingning belonged to him.
Whether as a pet or an object.
Lin Younan should pay the price for coveting what belongs to him!
Lin Feiyan snorted and got up to go to the bathroom. In front of the mirror, he saw his cold and gloomy face. Ye Qingning's words suddenly flashed through his mind: "Has anyone ever told you that you look good when you smile?"
Lin Feiyan slightly curled the corners of his lips, and the man's forced smile in the mirror looked somewhat eerie.
He frowned, turned around, and went into the shower room.
...
Five days later, Ye Qingning received a call from the haute couture store informing her that the suit was finished and ready for pickup.
Ye Qingning hailed a taxi and went there in a hurry, forgetting to report to Lin Feiyan.
When she arrived, there weren't many people in the store. The clothes were being worn on mannequins. She chose a gray color that was rather selective in terms of who could wear it. At first glance, it looked neat, tidy, and elegant.
The designer showed her the cut and fabric, explained the craftsmanship, and then matched the ties she had ordered with the ties one by one.
Having imagined the dashing appearance of the man in this suit, Ye Qingning swiped her card to pay with satisfaction.
After the staff finished packing her bags, Ye Qingning left the haute couture store carrying her large and small bags.
It was the afternoon rush hour, and the traffic and pedestrian flow were very dense. Ye Qingning belatedly realized that this world, just like the real world, also had a so-called evening rush hour.
It's impossible to get a taxi!
She wandered around the square carrying those handbags, placing countless ride-hailing orders, but none of them accepted.
Somewhat annoyed, she sat down on a bench in the square and took out her phone to send a message to Lin Feiyan.
"Mr. Lin, I went out to pick up something but got caught in rush hour and can't get a taxi back. Could you wait a little longer? If you're hungry, have Chen Chu order some food. I'm so sorry!"
She raised her hand to rub her temples, thinking that she was probably going to displease the man again today.
Luckily, I had the gift I wanted to give him.
As luck would have it, Lin Feiyan was having a meeting in the president's office on the third floor of the Linqi Shopping Mall, right across from her.
To be precise, I was scolded.
Linqi Shopping Mall suffered a slight loss this quarter, while almost all of the companies managed by Lin Younan were profitable, which greatly angered Lin Yunshan.
"Nonsense." Lin Yunshan's brows furrowed with gloom. "You're a married man now, with a family and responsibilities. Lin Qi was in this state when he was handed over to you, and after all these years, he's still the same. How come you haven't made any progress at all!"
A hint of impatience flashed across Lin Feiyan's brow, but it vanished in an instant.
His gaze inadvertently drifted to the window, and there he saw Ye Qingning resting on a bench in the square downstairs.
At first glance, he thought he was seeing things, but when he saw the familiar pink hoodie and baseball cap, he confirmed that this person was Ye Qingning.
Lin Feiyan narrowed his eyes slightly and subconsciously took out his phone, where he saw the message she had sent a few minutes earlier.
At this moment, the petite woman took off her baseball cap to fan herself, crossed one leg in a domineering manner, and sat there casually, looking both annoyed and adorable.
His lips curled up unconsciously, and he felt a cold wind blow in front of him. He raised his hand and caught the report that Lin Yunshan threw at him, then shot him a sharp glare...
Sensing the coldness in his eyes, the usually composed Lin Yunshan's heart skipped a beat, and the words he was about to say, calling him a spendthrift, stuck in his throat.
Noticing Lin Yunshan's unusual behavior, Lin Younan turned to look at Lin Feiyan, only to find that he had already lowered his head and was looking through the report, with nothing unusual about him.
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Younan spoke in a deep voice: "Dad, my elder brother's health was not good to begin with, and now that he's married, he must have even more things to do and be unable to manage everything. If you're really worried about him, I can come and help him, at least to get Linqi back to profitability."
