Xiao drank a few cups of tea on the balcony, looked at the snow scene for a while, replied to the New Year's message, then took a shower and got into bed.
At 12:30 in the morning, the door of the room was pushed open, and Lin Huayin finally ended the sisters' heart-to-heart talk.
"How was the chat?" Xiao Zheng turned over and looked at the door of the room.
Due to family reasons and many ulterior personal reasons, the sisters have not had such an in-depth conversation for a long time. So Xiao Zheng was bored and didn't bother them.
"Yeah." Lin Huayin nodded vaguely and walked into the bathroom to wash up.
When Xiao Zheng saw this, he was a little stunned.
He could tell that Lin Huayin was not in a beautiful mood, and her beautiful face was slightly tense. There seems to be something on his mind.
I didn’t ask any questions at the moment, I just tried to warm the bed...
Not long after, Lin Huayin lay down in her pajamas. But he didn't close his eyes, he just looked at Xiao Zheng calmly and said nothing.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Zheng propped up his head and half leaned on it.
"You have something to hide from me?" Lin Huayin narrowed his eyes slightly, rather unkindly. It's like treating a class enemy.
"What are you hiding?" Xiao Zheng was beating his head inwardly. I don’t know what Lao Lin is talking about.
Speaking of which, Xiao Zheng really was hiding some things that he didn't intend to tell Lao Lin. And every one of them is incredibly exciting. If he really wanted to tell the truth, even with Lao Lin's strong mind, he would probably be shaken again and again.
"Family matters." Lin Huayin pursed her lips and said.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he gently smoothed the black hair on Lao Lin's forehead and said softly: "You are an old woman who is about to retire, why do you care so much?"
Lin Huayin raised her eyebrows slightly, and didn't care about Xiao Zheng's unflattering description, and said calmly: "I only care about Xiaozhu."
Xiao Zheng was startled, and his expression became slightly strange.
"It's not convenient to say?" Lin Huayin added.
"I don't want to say it." Xiao Zheng shook his head.
What happened to Mr. Dong Bi. It is very likely that Lin Laoyao knows the overall situation. There are all kinds of things in this forest, including the sinister cruelty of human nature, but also cold-blooded ruthlessness. Xiao Zheng really didn't know how to explain it to Lin Huayin.
Furthermore, in Xiao Zheng's eyes, Lao Lin was originally an aloof and indifferent woman. If he imposes these negative energy things on her again, Xiao Zheng is afraid of forcing her into a path of no return.
Think about it and give up.
"Dong Bijun transferred Lin's shares to Xiaozhu." Lin Huayin did not delve into the inner meaning of Xiao Zheng's words, and instead glanced at Xiao Zheng. "You know about this?"
I see…
Logically speaking, Dong Bijun even asked Xiao Zheng for help but never revealed the truth. Lin Huayin has always been regarded by her as a threat and an enemy, both public and private, and it was impossible for Mr. Dong Bi to inform her. Therefore, the smart Lin Huayin must have gotten the news from Lin Xiaozhu and then analyzed the actual situation.
"Xiao Zhu told me." Xiao Zheng nodded. At this point, he had no need to hide it.
"You guys are sharing information." Lin Huayin said something meaningful without changing his color.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he chuckled and said, "Are you jealous?"
Lin Huayin turned his head and glanced at Xiao Zheng: "Am I that boring?"
"I mean-" Xiao Zheng said with a bad smile. "When Xiaozhu gets Lin's equity, she will officially join the board of directors. It will bring her one step closer to inheriting power in the future."
Lin Huayin knew that Xiao Zheng was teasing him, so she couldn't help but glance at him and wrote lightly: "Don't you want to make Xin'ao number one in Asia?"
"This is just a beautiful wish." Xiao Zheng said solemnly.
"And I am the largest shareholder of ENN." Lin Huayin said with narrowed eyes.
The implication is simple. Don't say that Lin Xiaozhu just joined the board of directors, even if he will take charge of power in the future. She, Lin Huayin, has nothing to be jealous of. Because Xiao Zheng said that he would lead Xinao to the top and dominate Asia...
"Dong Bijun has a problem." Lin Huayin changed the topic, not falling into Xiao Zheng's trap at all, and brought the topic to the main topic.
"What's the problem?" Xiao Zheng asked vaguely.
"She seems to be arranging a will." Lin Huayin said calmly.
"She is only in her early fifties." Xiao Zheng said seductively. "And you don't have to worry about food and drink. As long as you don't suffer from any terminal illness, it's easy to live to be eighty."
"In addition to diseases, there are many things in this world that can kill people." Lin Huayin said with narrowed eyes.
"What could it be?" Xiao Zheng tilted his head, looking thoughtful.
"Hypocritical." Lin Huayin gave Xiao Zheng a lukewarm look. "You don't have to say it, but don't pretend."
Lin Huayin saw through it at a glance, but Xiao Zheng laughed sarcastically, touched his nose and said: "You are a woman who is good at everything, but you speak too straight. It makes people unable to step down."
"Don't like it?" Lin Huayin said expressionlessly.
"I like it." Xiao Zheng kissed her beautiful cheek and said with emotion. "It's so windy and rainy outside, it's really scary."
"Is it scarier than your years abroad?" Lin Huayin asked lightly.
"No more concessions." Xiao Zheng dropped his book bag and said seriously. "Even scarier."
"People's hearts are evil, and all the agencies are exhausted." Xiao Zheng said meaningfully.
Lin Huayin listened patiently, with a look of concentration on his face.
Xiao Zheng didn't say anything, so she stopped asking. But this matter concerns family members and Xiaozhu. She couldn't remain indifferent. But she would not blame Xiao Zheng for this. She knew that Xiao Zheng didn't say anything because he didn't want her to worry. Rather than deliberately keeping secrets for anyone.
There are no secrets between this couple. At least not anymore...
"It's getting late." Xiao Zheng helped Lao Lin cover himself with a quilt. "I have to get up tomorrow morning to pay New Year greetings."
After a pause, Xiao Zheng said with a longing look on his face: "Last time Mr. Dong Bi gave me a huge red envelope. I don't know if there will be any more in the morning..."
"You are richer than her." Lin Huayin said coldly. "Now she can no longer give you red envelopes that you think are sky-high prices."
"Mosquito meat is also meat." Xiao Zheng said with a grin. "I'm not picky about food."
"There's no future." Lin Huayin said coldly.
"As a professional job seeker, my potential has long been drifting away from me." Xiao Zheng smiled. Happy to quarrel with Lao Lin.
Some people hate bickering over daily necessities. Xiao Zheng asked for it but couldn't get it. Lao Lin was like a banished immortal above the nine heavens, never quarreling with Xiao Zheng over the trivial matters of life. This is a symbol of wisdom and a manifestation of tolerance. But for the chatty Brother Azheng, without the quarrels and quarrels, the breath of life will be missing. There is also less fun in enjoying it.
It's really not a good thing.
The two of them arranged the quilt and lay on the soft bed. Under Xiao Zheng's guidance, their fingers were clasped together, feeling each other's warmth. I don’t know whether it was a sudden emotion or something inspired. Xiao Zheng tightened Lao Lin’s hand: “I may not have done well enough. But I must—”
"You're fine."
In the darkness, Lin Huayin's soft voice interrupted Xiao Zheng. Silence fell.
