Then she heard Lin Shen call out to the person who came over – “Big Brother”.
No wonder he looked familiar, Xia Wenxi thought of Lin Shen's father, whom she had met at the Wei family's house before.
Looking at it now, Lin Shen and his older brother are like father and mother respectively, so although they are brothers, they don't look very alike.
"Wenxi, this is my older brother, Lin Yu."
"Brother, this is my girlfriend, Wenxi."
Xia Wenxi had previously learned from Lin Shen's words that the relationship between the Lin family siblings was so-so, but she did not expect that Lin Yu would smile so gently at her today.
Lin Yu was already middle-aged, not much younger than Xia Hengyuan. When he really wanted to be friendly, his smile was full of gentleness, even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
Several thoughts flashed through Xia Wenxi's mind, but she still smiled and took the initiative to extend her hand, saying obediently, "Hello, big brother, I am Xia Wenxi."
Lin Yu's children are all older than Xia Wenxi, so being called "big brother" by such a young girl made Lin Yu chuckle, and he couldn't help but give his younger brother a teasing look.
I never imagined I would have a younger brother or sister-in-law who is so young.
"I've heard so much about you, Miss Xia. Today is not the time to talk. I'll have Xiao Shen take you to my home for dinner another day."
Lin Yu smiled and shook hands with Xia Wenxi. Even if his relationship with his brother Lin Shen wasn't good now, he wouldn't give a little girl a hard time.
Just as Lin Yu said, today was not a suitable occasion for long conversations. There were many people coming and going, and Lin Yu also had to socialize, so he didn't say anything more to the two of them and quickly left to go elsewhere.
Xia Wenxi looked around and whispered to Lin Shen, "Does your company not have any performances at the annual meeting?"
Xia Wenxi felt that if she were an employee, she would actually prefer a company where she didn't have to perform. Working was already tiring enough, not having to rehearse for a show...
Why don't we go home and mention it to Xia Wensheng, and ask him to cancel the performance segment?
Lin Shen still remembered Xia Wenxi saying she would save some good food for her, and was now leading her towards the food area.
Upon hearing the question, he replied, "It already existed."
Meeting Xia Wenxi's curious gaze, Lin Shen rarely showed an expression that was hard to describe.
“There was an employee who wanted to perform fire-breathing at the annual party… and almost burned down the hotel. Since then, the administration has canceled the talent show at the annual party.”
After hearing this, Xia Wenxi couldn't help but make the same expression as Lin Shen.
Fire-breathing performance at the company annual meeting...
It's not entirely fair to call it a talent, but... it doesn't seem quite normal either, does it?
"It's actually quite good. Traditional skills should be passed down. If it doesn't work out, we can just perform in a spacious outdoor area next time."
Xia Wenxi patted Lin Shen on the shoulder, smiling as she "comforted" him.
After the two finished speaking, Xia Wenxi was about to go over and see what delicious food the Lin family had for dinner when she heard someone calling her—
"Senior?!"
Xia Wenxi looked at the person who called her and quickly remembered that it was the junior she had met twice before... well, the junior who had confessed his feelings to her.
Lin Shen probably doesn't know, right?
Xia Wenxi subconsciously raised her right hand to greet him, but her right hand was being held by Lin Shen, and she couldn't pull it away, so she had to switch hands and wave.
Lu Hao naturally saw the two hands clasped tightly together, their fingers intertwined...
At this moment, probably no one in the banquet hall had a more complicated feeling than him.
Good news: I met my goddess.
Bad news: The goddess's boyfriend is the company boss.
He really didn't know what expression to wear at that moment.
Maybe I should cry.
Because he suddenly remembered what he had said in the cafeteria that day...
No wonder President Lin came to show concern for him, the intern. He must have heard him say that Senior Wenxi was his goddess, right?
Lu Hao thought to himself that he should pack up and go abroad, as the country could no longer contain his embarrassment.
"Mr. Lin, senior, um... my friend is calling me, I'll go now. Goodbye Mr. Lin, goodbye senior."
Then Xia Wenxi saw Lu Hao dart out like a rabbit.
Something seemed off, but Xia Wenxi couldn't quite put her finger on it...
"Wenxi, this egg tart tastes good. It has pistachios on top, which is your favorite flavor."
Sure enough, Xia Wenxi's attention immediately went to the egg tarts.
Egg tarts with pistachios, how delicious is that!
"Two, please!"
Lin Shen picked up two plates and stood next to Xia Wenxi, serving as her waiter.
One of Lin's employees couldn't resist taking a picture of the scene with his phone. Lin Shen saw the employee taking pictures out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't say anything.
He just kept watching Xia Wenxi, who was eating intently.
"There's also matcha mille-feuille and strawberry mousse."
"I want to eat."
The desserts are all small, because there are many kinds, so they are all miniature versions of those in cake shops, but the taste is not compromised at all.
After eating two pieces and still wanting more, Xia Wenxi couldn't help but ask, "Who arranged what we ate at the company's annual party?"
"They were all arranged by the government."
Lin Shen didn't mention that the desserts Wenxi had just eaten were all added at his request.
Xia Wenxi smiled and her eyes crinkled when she heard Lin Shen's answer.
"So many of my favorite foods, what a coincidence."
"How about another caramel pudding?"
He can express love in many ways, but this lucky coincidence will make his little girl feel happy because it is happiness from all directions, not just from him.
Xia Wenxi and Lin Shen stayed until the end of the annual meeting, and in the end, she stood below to watch Lin Shen give a speech.
He was wearing a sharp suit, tall and handsome.
He was talking about the company's plans and prospects for the new year, and his right hand, which was holding the microphone, revealed the bracelet that Xia Wenxi had tied on it herself.
Later, late at night.
In the heat of the moment, Xia Wenxi turned her head and saw Lin Shen's right hand resting against her face. As if bewitched, she kissed the inside of his wrist, which was adorned with a red string.
There... there are bulging blood vessels.
The blood pumped by the heart flows here through the arteries and then returns to the heart through the veins.
This kiss landed on Lin Shen's wrist, and it also touched his heart.
"Wenxi, I love you."
"I love it too..."
Before the words could be fully uttered, they could only turn into joyful tears that slid down from the corners of her eyes.
Soon, it was gently kissed away again.
Xia Wenxi opened her eyes impatiently, her vision blurry, only able to see the wind chimes swaying slightly by the bedside.
The seashells she strung on by hand were crowded together, making a slight rustling sound as they rubbed against each other.
Seashells, seashells on the beach.
Xia Wenxi thought of the azure sea, with white waves surging towards her, one after another.
People can feel dizzy if they are in the ocean waves for too long.
She suddenly felt a little scared, as if she was about to be dragged into the waves.
Lin Shen said, "Don't be afraid, I will go with you and step into the waves."
