Lin Huayin was the one driving because they had drunk two cups too much. Xiao Zheng sat in the front passenger seat to sober up.
Lin Huayin focused on driving and didn't disturb Xiao Zheng. On the contrary, Xiao Zheng couldn't stand the loneliness and teased, "Old Lin. I noticed that the atmosphere at the dinner table is a bit strange today. "
"Hmm?" Lin Huayin asked casually.
"Lord Ye talked about the history of his family and the whole process of starting a family. Your uncle also talked about him and your aunt. As if it was premeditated, all the topics were related to this. "Xiao Zheng leaned against the back of the chair and exhaled.
Lin Huayin felt guilty and didn't respond directly. She just said lightly, "If you don't like it, ask them not to talk about it next time."
"I like it." Xiao Zheng slowly sat up and said with a smile. "I'm afraid you won't like it."
Lin Huayin slightly pursed her lips and didn't continue to talk.
She was introspecting.
Was it really a bit too much?
Living together was a matter between two people. She hoped that Xiao Zheng would focus more and work harder. Xiao Zheng did it all. But on the other hand, Xiao Zheng never had any requirements for her. No matter what she did, he always tolerated it.
Including that matter.
Tangyue said that this matter was a man's Achilles heel. Even a monk might not be able to cut it off. It was the primal desire of human beings, it was their nature.
Lin Huayin was used to having a pure heart and few desires. But even so, she occasionally missed Xiao Zheng's strong arms and open and warm embrace.
This was probably what Tangyue was talking about, right?
Lin Huayin did have some psychological barriers. She hated physical contact with others. But since what was done could not be undone, and it wasn't a shameful thing. Why did she let her temper do whatever she wanted, completely disregarding his feelings and situation?
"He really dotes on you."
Tangyue's heartfelt sigh echoed in her mind. Lin Huayin's heart slowly warmed up and softened.
Of course he doted on her.
How could he not spoil her?
Because of her mood, Lin Huayin's beautiful lips curled up into a smile. Betrayed her heart.
"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Zheng took a sip of water. He joked. "Did I find a treasure?"
Lin Huayin restrained her expression and a trace of pride flashed in her eyes. "Yes, I picked up a treasure."
"Where? Where?" Xiao Zheng pretended to exaggerate. He looked around.
"Far away on the horizon, but close at hand." Lin Huayin smiled without any hesitation.
Xiao Zheng was startled at first, then he gently caressed Lin Huayin's pretty face and teased, "Naughty."
An ambiguous atmosphere spread in the carriage. For the first time, Lin Huayin did not restrain her emotions from spreading. Instead, he carefully accepted it and even enjoyed it.
…
Guo Zhendong finished a plate of fried rice and drank the red wine in his glass. The wine was flown over from Chang Yishan's winery. The texture was excellent. It was priceless. But in Guo Zhendong's mouth, it was only a little more mellow than a glass of grape juice. Although it was not so low that it was mixed with sprite. But with Guo Zhendong's habits, he could not taste it as meticulously as Chang Yishan.
"This kid went to the Ye Residence again." Guo Zhendong put down the glass and lit a cigarette with satisfaction.
"Everyone knows that Lord Ye loves Lin Huayin the most. It's not strange for him to go to the Ye Residence. " Chang Yishan took a sip of the wine and suddenly thought of something. He got up and took out an unmarked and nameless cigarette. He threw it to Guo Zhendong. "My friend gave this to me. It's useless for me to keep it. You can smoke it. "
"Good boy." Guo Zhendong sat up lazily on the sofa and exclaimed. "This is the tribute of tributes. It's said that it only circulates in Zhongnanhai. You can't get it on the market. "
He opened a box and threw away the lit cigarette. He took a puff of the cigarette that Chang Yishan gave him. He looked up and puffed out the smoke. "I feel like I'm sitting in Zhongnanhai for a meeting."
"That exaggerated?" Chang Yishan Smiled and shook his head. "What smell?"
"The smell of power." Guo Zhendong said straightforwardly. "The smell of everything in the world."
Then, Guo Zhendong looked at Chang Yishan. "The leader that Lin Chaotian helped you with, are you familiar with him?"
"I've met him a few times in private. But not for long. There's not much to talk about. "Chang Yishan took a sip of wine. "I'm familiar with him now."
"It's time to develop your resources in Yan Jing." Guo Zhendong squinted. "Xiao Zheng has not been idle for the past year. He has cultivated two new forces in the political field. Not to mention the business field, Xin Ao's potential is valued by many big shots, his future is limitless. Even in the military, this kid has done something big. He even alerted a general. At this rate. In another five years, we won't be able to compete with him. "
"Five years?" Chang Yishan pursed his lips and laughed. "Who would give him five years? Bai Wushuang? Even Yan Dengkui would probably be driven mad by his sister-in-law, right? "
Guo Zhendong saw Chang Yishan's sudden change of tone and said with a serious face, "Are you ready to take action?"
Chang Yishan put down his glass and said calmly, "Bai Wushuang has officially taken over the Bai family. The battle between Yen Teng-kuei and Shang Yao is getting more intense. Just wait and see, the undercurrent is surging. People from all sides are ready to make a move. It won't be peaceful for long. "
"What about you?" Guo Zhendong asked curiously. "What do you plan to do?"
"I don't like to give up halfway." Chang Yishan said meaningfully. "I said I want to defeat his Phantom, so I will."
Guo Zhendong said excitedly, "This is the show I want to watch!"
…
Perhaps it was because of the influence of the workaholic Lin Huayin, or the change in his state of mind, Xiao Zheng became more motivated. For example, supporting the old director's orphanage, he could earn some money overseas to support the old director's wish. But now, he was facing the top crocodile, facing the toughest challenge. Without enough strength and foundation, how could Xiao Zheng break through the barrier and soar to the sky?
He told himself to face the future with the best attitude. Strength was the best way to get there.
And to have strength, work is indispensable. This is also the only reason on the road to success, there are no shortcuts to speak of.
After a busy morning, Xiao Zheng wanted to invite Xiao Ma and the others to lunch and relax. But as he expected, he received a call from Shang Yao.
Smile, Xiao Zheng picked up and asked, "Miss Shang, are you going to treat me to lunch?"
Shang Yao's low and tired voice came from the other side of the phone, "Boss Xiao, you can eat whatever you want. I'm downstairs at your company. "
So urgent?
It seemed that the fight for the successor of the Yan family was more difficult than he had imagined.
Of course, this was also within Xiao Zheng's expectations.
Yen Teng-kuei only had two supporters behind him. Although to ordinary people, Yan Jiaji and Yan Hong were big shots. But in the eyes of Shang Jingtian, they were still too insignificant.
So, would Old Master Yan let the two successor candidates compete in an unfair environment?
Impossible.
Old Master Yan valued the ability of the successor, not the background. In terms of background, he was the biggest supporter of the successor.
Therefore, this was definitely a fair fight.
Therefore, Shang Yao definitely needed Xiao Zheng's help.
Because Yen Teng-kuei had the support of the monstrous genius, Chang Yishan.
