One night, he bought a mobile phone and bought snacks, and then ate this and that. Being disturbed by Ji Lin's mess, Bai Duanduan completely left Lin Hui's matter out of the blue, and he didn't even think about giving him a reply Telephone.
Woke up after a nap, put on a new phone, and completely forgot about it. When Bai Duanduan remembered again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Bai Duanduan hurriedly took out his mobile phone and called, and the phone was connected after a few rings.
"Duanduan, are you free recently? It's nothing, just going out for a meal. The hairy crabs are on the market. My client here sent me several boxes. You just came over to take them away."
Bai Duanduan likes to eat hairy crabs, but Ye Zhaoxia and Lin Hui are not very fond of hairy crabs, so in the past, whenever someone sent hairy crabs, they belonged to Bai Duanduan. At the beginning, there were no hairy crabs in City B, but every crab season, no matter how busy Lin Hui was at work, he would still deliver a few boxes to himself. Although during the years in Zhaohui, the relationship between Bai Duanduan and Lin Hui was already quite tense. However, this tradition has not changed. Now that he has left Zhaohui, Lin Hui obviously intends to continue this habit of giving crabs.
Lin Hui is like this, whether it was his kindness at the beginning, then it became more and more commercialized, and in the end he didn't agree with his ideas, and because of Du Xinyi's catalysis, he completely quarreled and broke up. It doesn't matter if he smashed his statue by himself, the money should be deducted The money is still deducted, but it is still a crab that should be given to myself.
He has his own set of completely self-consistent logical concepts and standards of conduct. He will do what he believes no matter how wrong others think. He is so stubborn that he is almost paranoid, so that Bai Duanduan has complicated feelings for him, because even if Today, Lin Hui is not blindly bad or good. He is a very difficult person to judge. He is like an emperor who has indeed made a lot of achievements and has benefited the common people. , irritable mood, but occasionally when sober, people are not bad...
Crabs are a thing of the past, so Lin Hui and Bai Duanduan finally made an appointment to meet tonight and give the crabs to Bai Duanduan.
After Bai Duanduan hung up the phone, he was called to the office by an internal call from Ji Lin to discuss a new executive resignation dispute case. After communicating with the case, Bai Duanduan checked the time and was about to leave work, she said casually : "I have finished today's work, so I won't work overtime?"
Ji Lin didn't raise his head: "I have to work overtime, you won't work overtime tonight."
Bai Duanduan was very happy. After working overtime for so long, he finally got off work normally: "That's great! I also have an appointment with Lin Hui tonight, and he brought me several boxes of hairy crabs. Do you like it? Yes I can share half with you, I can still make hairy crabs, just steam them... "
"I'm not finished yet." Ji Lin interrupted Bai Duanduan quietly.
"?"
"I have to work overtime. It's impossible for you not to work overtime tonight."
"..."
Bai Duanduan almost choked up: "Then what about my crab?!"
"How many boxes of crabs did he bring you?"
"4 boxes!"
"Okay, then I'll buy you 8 boxes. You can work overtime with peace of mind."
"Don't you think this is a waste of money? Why don't you let me go and let me get those 4 boxes of crabs? Can I still give you 2 boxes?"
Ji Lin glanced at Bai Duanduan coldly: "How much is 8 boxes of crabs? You can calculate the income you can generate after completing this case? As for giving me 2 boxes, heh, I don't bother to eat crabs sent by others , To be a person, you must have a backbone, and if you want to eat, you can eat what you buy."
This person who sent a crab in a favor, how could it have something to do with the backbone...
…
In the end, no matter how much Bai Duanduan fought, Ji Lin refused her sneaking out on the grounds that work was the most important thing, but the only thing he found out was that this man gave Bai Duan another layoff case of thousands of people, and the entire factory in China was closed , the amount involved was nearly 60 million, and the lawyer's fees were high. Bai Duanduan did the math, and with just a few cases, his income-generating performance this year will probably be very good.
Although everyone thinks that labor dispute lawyers are engaged in wrangling cases between enterprises and individual workers, they always feel that they are low-end and have little money. A large-scale layoff case and an executive resignation dispute, the income is also very good.
There was no way, for the sake of money, Bai Duanduan called Lin Hui, declined tonight's meeting, and asked him to give the crabs to others, this kind of fresh food should not be kept, but Lin Hui didn't say anything , I asked for Bai Duanduan's address, but still sent it to the gatekeeper of the community.
After returning from overtime work, Bai Duanduan, who happened to be in Ji Lin's car, received Lin Hui's text message, and went to the guard to pick up the crab, and Ji Lin followed him all the way, looking at the crab and the enemy with a bad expression. Like, don't know what's going on. Want to eat too
"Crabs can't stay for too long. I'm going to steam a few tonight. Do you want to come together?"
"I don't eat."
As a result, Ji Lin dropped this sentence and turned around and left. Although his expression was still cold and indifferent, Bai Duanduan felt inexplicably that this guy seemed a little angry, and he didn't know what he was angry about.
But in short, Ji Lin probably wasn't in a good mood that night, because in the next few days, he would be full of Bai Duanduan's work, except for overtime, so there was no time to find Lin Hui for a meal Thanked him for those crabs, but Lin Hui didn't know which customer sent the crabs, so he contacted Bai Duanduan again.
"Duanduan, have you finished eating the crabs last time? I have new ones here."
"No, no, no need, I've been working overtime recently."
It is said that distance creates beauty. When I left the job, I had a tearful relationship with Lin Hui. Now I am not in the same law firm. After such a period of time, the relationship has eased a lot.
Lin Hui's voice was very gentle, as if he had returned to the teacher Lin in the past. He was a little stunned and said, "I've been working so much overtime lately? It's okay. If you don't have time, I'll just let the doorman in your community go."
"No, no, I really don't need it. I also have a lot of big hairy crabs here. If you send them too much, I can't finish them. It's a pity that the crabs are dead. It's too wasteful."
What Bai Duanduan said was not a lie. I don’t know what happened recently. Ji Lin also began to have crabs from customers frequently. He didn’t like crabs, so he threw them all to himself, almost two boxes every day. Even if Bai Duanduan likes hairy crabs, it's a bit too much to see the crabs, and his legs are a little weak. He is worried every day and only hopes that Ji Lin's customers will stop sending him crabs. It's too late, I can't bear Lin Hui's crab anymore.
Fortunately, in the end, Bai Duanduan gave such an explanation, and Lin Hui gave up, and the matter passed like this, and the two of them made an appointment to see each other again.
It's a pity that this is empty and goodbye in the end. In the end, it really became empty talk, because Bai Duanduan was really too busy. After finally having a weekend, he had to report to Ms. Meng Xin again.
It's just that Bai Duanduan has been exhausted from working overtime recently, but Ms. Meng is in good spirits when she celebrates happy events. Under Bai Duanduan's multi-directional monitoring, her blood sugar has been controlled within a very good range. Her health is better and she feels more comfortable. Her face is well maintained, her son's money is spent more happily, she buys more bags, and lives more chicly. The only fly in the ointment is her son Ji Lin's lifelong event.
Ms. Meng Xin found that she couldn't fight Bai Duanduan, and she basically stopped struggling. Since Bai Duanduan went to Shenglin, Ms. Meng's attitude towards her has become better. Ji Lin usually doesn't talk much, even with her own mother. Bai Duanduan has become her window to understand her son. Today, while she follows Bai Duanduan for routine walks and exercises in the park, she can't help it. Zhuo sounded: "Xiaobai, let me ask you, is there something wrong with Linlin recently?"
Bai Duanduan raised his eyelids: "What's the situation?"
"That's the case." Ms. Meng Xin looked anxious, "You see, this child is at this age, and his career can be considered successful. How can he start a family and start a business? If the business is established, the family should also be established?" She Looking at Bai Duanduan, "Xiaobai, aren't you both his colleague and neighbor? You should know his usual movements best, so just tell Auntie that Linlin has been so busy recently that he hasn't visited me much. And the blind date I arranged for him, he has no interest at all, even if he refused to meet in the past, he would at least give me face and add a wechat to the other girl, but now he doesn't even want to add wechat, the woman takes the initiative to add him , he turned a blind eye and refused to accept it, I think he has someone he likes and is already in a relationship?"
Bai Duanduan did not speak, but stretched out his hand: "One hundred."
Meng Xin was not surprised anymore, she endured the humiliation and took out a hundred bills, and handed it to Bai Duanduan: "It's alright, alright, I understand the old rules, you get what you pay for the information, here you go, tell me!"
Bai Duanduan sighed: "No."
"ah?"
"Your son Ji Lin is not in a relationship. It is impossible for him to fall in love."
Meng Xin was in a hurry: "But his spare time has been much less recently than before. I asked him several times if he would go home for dinner, and he always said that he was working overtime. How is that possible? I know his work ability and efficiency, no There may be so many overtime shifts, and the balance between work and life can be very good."
It's okay not to mention overtime. When Meng Xin mentioned overtime, Bai Duanduan was also very angry: "It is true that your son is working overtime, not only working overtime by himself, but also pulling me to work overtime. He is high-minded and just wants to make money, but I'm not, I still want to enjoy life!"
Ms. Meng Xin obviously still didn't believe it, so she went to the bottom of the matter and asked, "What else? Is there any special situation in Linlin recently? For example, did you meet any new girls? What about your customers? There are some kind of nice, gentle and generous A virtuous, diligent and thrifty man who manages the house is the living room and the kitchen... ”
"No." Bai Duanduan rolled his eyes, "Auntie, the kind of 24-year-old girlfriend you want to find basically does not exist in modern society, and even if it does exist, it is a disguise. Lin’s money is ready to be divorced and cashed out quickly after marriage.”
Meng Xin was not happy with these words: "What are you talking about, my son is so handsome and talented, how could it be possible that these girls are only interested in his money?"
"Is it because of your son's workaholic attributes that keep making people work overtime? Or because of his toxicity that kills people when he speaks?"
Ji Lin knew what kind of virtue her mother was, and Meng Xin naturally knew what kind of virtue her son was, and she also knew that her son was indeed not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Bai Duanduan, the little eyeliner placed next to his son, still needs to be wooed, and Ms. Meng Xin managed to squeeze out a kind smile: "Then Xiaobai, you are right about the perfect 24-year-old girlfriend, there are too few of them. , Auntie doesn't count on it anymore, just tell Auntie, what kind of girls are there by Linlin's side now? Auntie gives it to the staff."
Bai Duanduan stretched out his hand again.
Ms. Meng Xin was kind, and took out another 100 yuan.
"There have been no single female clients around Ji Lin recently. Oh, no, there is one. A few days ago, I dealt with an executive layoff case. The director of the HR department is a woman."
"The director of female affairs can be considered as a female executive, right?" Ms. Meng Xin said with bright eyes, "Are young and promising female elites? That's okay too! We earn more and can support ourselves. Small!"
"It's a female executive. She has a high income and is quite promising. As for being young." Bai Duanduan paused, "In her forties, she looks like she's in her thirties, and she's quite young."
"..."
Meng Xin persisted and said: "If there is no suitable female client, what about other things? For example, if you are a lawyer, you will contact the arbitration committee, the court, and the other law firm, right? Are there any kind of virtuous and sensible girls here? "
Bai Duanduan rolled his eyelids: "Auntie, the scope of this information is too wide, it's not enough."
Meng Xin could only swallow his anger and continue to take out Zhang Yibai: "That's enough!"
Bai Duanduan took the money and coughed: "Recently, the partners your son has come into contact with are very unfortunate. They are all men, except for a few women. They are all married and have children. The rest your son can contact There are only a few single young women left in our law firm."
It's not that Meng Xin didn't know the other female colleagues in Jilin Law Firm, so she immediately lamented: "Aren't they the only ones in Shenglin? I don't know why Linlin recruits people. There are so many female colleagues in the law firm. None of the pretty ones!"
Bai Duanduan was not happy to hear this: "Auntie, I think girls are pretty as long as they are confident, well-dressed, and have a good manner of speaking."
"Come on." Meng Xin rolled her eyes ungracefully, "I'm superficial, and I only look at looks. When buying apples, everyone still likes to buy the big, round and red ones. I chose them for myself. Daughter-in-law, can’t you choose a good-looking one? My son is so handsome, so of course we need to find someone with good genes. A child born together is a strong alliance. Birth is a winner in life. I know that the girls who can enter Linlin Law Firm are all excellent in professional ability, but to be honest, this face just doesn't look good enough."
"As far as my face is bare, don't I look good?" Bai Duanduan and Ms. Meng got into a fight, "Aunt Meng, you have to speak with your conscience, look at my face, it's 360 degrees Dead corner, you have been accused of having a perfect face that can only be obtained by plastic surgery. How can you beat all the women in our law firm to death? Besides, Wang Fangfang is also very handsome. I think everyone agrees. They are good-looking, and they are also very good-looking, but they are all different."
Meng Xin suddenly remembered that Bai Duanduan was also a member of his son's law firm. She approves of Bai Duanduan's looks, this woman is poisonous, but her face is a feast for the eyes, with a high-end face, paired with the branded outfits she wears all over her body, she looks like a star when she walks out.
Unfortunately…
"You can't." Ms. Meng Xin didn't even think about it, she said naturally, "I excluded you from the scope of candidates from the very beginning." She swept Bai Duanduan up and down, "My son won't like you You are handsome, you are beautiful, you are too fierce, you are not gentle and virtuous at all, and you spend so much money, how can you? And you can't even cook, what will you do in the future? Do you want him to condescend to cook for you? Is it? His hourly salary is so expensive, it is impossible... "
Although what Ms. Meng Xin said made sense, and Bai Duanduan had an intuition that Ji Lin probably wouldn't like him, but when she said it so bluntly, Bai Duanduan still felt unhappy, and subconsciously wanted to refute that he was so helpless. Does it catch your eye? !
"What's wrong with me not being gentle and virtuous? Maybe your son likes tigress deep down in his heart? Some men are like this. It's impossible to find a gentle and virtuous one. You have to find a fierce one and beat him three times a day to feel comfortable."
Ms. Meng Xin's eyes widened: "Impossible!"
"What's impossible? I don't know how to cook, and now your son cooks for me! Look, it's good that there is no clear division of labor?"
Ms. Meng's tone was completely unbelievable: "There is a limit to your nonsense! My son usually has no interest in letting him cook for me! I can still cook for you. I don't think it's cooking, but you are dreaming!"
"Aunt Meng, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not, but there is something I want to persuade you. It's okay if Ji Lin doesn't like me, but he will always fall in love with other women in the future, right? Haven't you heard of it? Yes Wife forgot mother, now you are anxious to find a partner for your son all day long, be careful if someone finds a partner, you won’t cook a single meal for you, and cook six meals a day for your partner every day!”
Ms. Meng was furious: "There are only three meals a day in the morning, noon and evening, why do you have to cook six meals a day?"
"Eat less and eat more to be healthy and slim. Three regular meals a day and three extra meals of fruit and snacks."
Bai Duanduan was furious and said: "As for what you said, I spend a lot of money. Auntie, you are not bad yourself. Why do women make things difficult for women? Besides, haven't you heard of it? It's a man's blessing to find a wife who can spend money. Because women can spend, they will urge men to make money. What's more, your son is so busy, and the money is earned back. Who usually spends it for him to improve his living standards? Then don't you have to find someone who can spend money? "
"Look at me, I have such a bunch of advantages, I am pretty, I have a decent job, and my income is not bad. If you want to be my mother-in-law, I have to think twice. What do you mean by 'directly excluded from the list of candidates? ', you think you are the Empress Dowager's pick girl! There are definitely more men chasing me than women chasing your son! They can all line up from the gate to the bridge by the river! I just change boyfriends every day, at least half a year. No shortage of boyfriends!"
"..."
Ms. Meng Xin felt that she was not well: "Bai Duanduan, you...you..."
"What's the matter? Do you want to beat me? But Aunt Meng, you can't beat me." Bai Duanduan glanced at Meng Xin and added, "Your son can't beat me either."
"Who are you going to hit again?"
Just when Ms. Meng Xin was about to close herself, Ji Linhan's indifferent voice came from behind her.
Bai Duanduan turned around, only to realize that Ji Lin had walked behind her and Meng Xin at some point. He obviously didn't know about the previous conversation between Bai Duanduan and Meng Xin, and only had time to hear the last sentence.
Ji Lin frowned and looked at Bai Duanduan: "I told you not to hit people, be more civilized."
It's just that even though he said that, his tone was a little careless, and there was no reproach.
Bai Duanduan froze for no reason, she restrained the flailing of teeth and claws in front of Meng Xin just now, and calmed down: "Oh, okay."
I think it's all for the sake of him being the food, the parents and the boss!
"So what were you talking about?"
"Bai Duanduan said that the men chasing her can line up from the gate to the bridge by the river! She can change one every day for half a year! She really looks down on our family!"
Ji Lin glanced at Bai Duanduan.
Bai Duanduan quickly waved his hand to deny: "I'm just making an analogy. I don't mean to look down on your family at all."
When Ms. Meng Xin saw the arrival of her son, whom she could back up, she immediately became arrogant: "Then you mean that you like our family? Do you have unreasonable thoughts about my son?"
Aunt Meng, I really want to cover your mouth.
Bai Duanduan was so angry that he died: "No!"
Bai Duanduan was thought that when Meng Xin said that, Ji Lin would most likely want to satirize himself, but it didn't work out. Ji Lin walked aside quietly, didn't say anything, just glanced at himself indifferently, then looked away, and My own mother changed the subject and talked about something else. It just looks like you're in a bad mood.

After all, I'm about to write the plot of Ji Par's confession in my manuscript, which is my motivation to write this article!
[small theater]
Ji par: Mom, I actually like tigers... Have you forgotten that when I was young, I liked to see tigers the most when I went to the zoo
Ms. Meng: ... A tiger is a tiger, and a tigress like Bai Duanduan is a tigress... You can like tigers, but you can't bring back a tigress like Bai Duanduan!
