As soon as I got out of the car, I looked up and saw on the open-air balcony on the second floor of Lin Ye's house, a middle-aged man leaned on the white marble handrail with his arms propped up, watching our every move condescendingly.
Lin Ye looked back following my gaze and called out, "Dad."
The man couldn't see his expression clearly against the light, so he just waved to Lin Ye: "You're back very quickly, come into the house." His voice was deep and hoarse, and he spoke slowly.
After entering the door, Lin Ye took off his coat and gave it to the nanny, and led me upstairs. When he opened the door, he saw Master Lin sitting on the main seat and looking at us. I could see his face clearly this time.
His head is full of white hair, without a strand of black strands, but his face is surprisingly young, not at all like someone who is nearly sixty. Sword eyebrows, long eyes, straight nose. The thin lips are slightly raised, smiling at us.
Fortunately, Lin Ye doesn't look like his father, he's too rigid.
"Hello, Uncle Lin." Walking forward, I showed a humble smile of a junior.
"This is Jianjun. I was on a business trip before, so I didn't have time to greet you." He nodded at me with a benevolent look.
I hurriedly said: "You are too polite, I should have come to visit you after I have been here for so long."
Master Lin pointed to the chair: "Sit."
Lin Ye and I sat down, Master Lin smiled and said, "Look at how neat this kid is, is he used to living in City B?"
"It's all good. I bought a house near here some time ago, and now everyone lives in it. It's very comfortable."
"Hey, you young people are good, you are adaptable, and you are energetic. I am envious when I look at it."
"I think your spirit is better than many young people."
After talking, the food was served in a short while.
"Lin Ye, fill up the wine." Master Lin pointed to the empty wine glass on the table.
"Yo, what an embarrassment, let me come."
Lin Ye pressed my shoulder and stood up by himself, quickly opened a bottle of Moutai at the table, filled it up for the old man and me, and leveled the rim of the glass: "You are a guest, sit down today."
"Come on, let's have a drink first." Master Lin didn't show me the list, he picked up the wine glass and said, "I used to hear Lin Ye talk about you all the time, but today I finally got it right. This kid has no friends since he was a child, and he followed him from X City. You are the only one who came here. As a father..."
I drank the wine in my glass: "Uncle Lin, you don't know that Lin Ye is very popular in X City. Sometimes he is so tight that I can't make an appointment."
Lin Ye sat next to him and didn't speak, he just greeted me to have dinner with his dad, with a slight smile on his lips, as quiet and gentle as a doll.
"As soon as I came back, Lin Ye told me that you helped him run the company well, and I felt relieved. This kid is playful, so you should help him more in the future."
"Look at what you said, there was Bole first and then Maxima. Lin Ye has set the general direction, and I'm just helping him."
Just drink it cup by cup like this, it doesn't matter what the left and the right say, and the meal is finished like this.
"Go and peel some fruit." Master Lin told Lin Ye, Lin Ye smiled and nodded, got up and went.
Master Lin looked at his back and smiled and said to me: "This kid has lost his mother since he was a child, and he has a bit of a weird personality. You have to let him do it."
"I hit it off pretty well with him."
"About your friend, I asked someone to help you."
There was a quiver on my forehead: "What... how is it?"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Thank you, Uncle Lin." I sat on the chair and bowed slightly.
"Do you blame Lin Ye?"
The expression was a little stiff for a moment, and I could almost feel the inquiring gaze from above, cutting my back and hurting.
Hanging eyes smiled: "I blame him for what he does, it's my brother's own fault. If he can come out this time, I will definitely kill him."
I was patted on the shoulder, and I raised my eyes. Master Lin still had that kind look on his face: "Come here often in the future, don't see outsiders."
The cold wind blew me away, I was close to Lin Ye's house, and he was being ordered by his father to send me back.
I stepped on the small stone road under my feet, feeling a little nervous, he walked silently beside me, lit a cigarette, his gloomy face made the surrounding air dark.
He stared straight ahead at the road, and seemed to have no time to talk to me.
"Does your dad not like you?" Since he didn't want to say it, I said it.
"Shut up."
"According to the relationship between the two of us, he should have chopped me off with a knife. I even washed my neck and got ready."
He squinted at me, frowning sternly.
I smiled in the dark, a gust of cold wind hit, I took off my coat and put it on Lin Ye: "Don't catch a cold, baby."
