Xiao Zheng had expected the hot-tempered Ol 'Amos to take him down a notch, so he had been wary of the Ol' Amos' little tricks ever since he entered the room. As expected, when the Ol 'Amos confirmed Xiao Zheng's identity, a teacup was thrown at him. However, the sly Xiao Zheng dodged it easily, and it smashed into the white wall with a loud bang, leaving a mottled brown stain.
Xiao Zheng knew the Ol 'Amos's bad temper, but Lin Huayin, an outsider, did not know. After witnessing the Ol 'Amos's outburst, she stood rooted to the ground with a slightly stunned expression, not knowing what to do or not to advise him.
She was an outsider and did not know what conflict there was between the two of them. She was also not a woman who was good at mediating. Usually, she didn't even want to speak much. Even in company meetings, she would speak less, listen more, and only make concluding remarks. It would be too difficult to force her to mediate between the two of them.
The Ol 'Amos was also so agitated that he could not control himself. He even ignored the beautiful guest, Lin Huayin. He rolled up his sleeves and walked out of the office table, glaring angrily. "Get out, you little rascal! I don't want to see you ever again! "
Although he said that, it seemed like he wanted to give Xiao Zheng a good beating. No one could tell what he wanted to do.
Of course, Xiao Zheng would not let him have his way. He quickly hid behind Lin Huayin and poked his head out. "Old man, it's been seven years. Why are you still so angry?"
"I won't forget you even if I turn into ashes!" the Ol 'Amos said angrily. "What's the point of hiding behind a woman? Get out here. I'll beat you to death, you little rascal! "
"You still want to beat me? Didn't you beat me enough in the past? I'm an adult now. If you dare to beat me, I'll go to the police station and report you for malicious assault. "Xiao Zheng used the law to ensure that his personal safety would not be violated.
"You little rascal, you've grown up, haven't you? You even know how to use the law now? "The Ol 'Amos was so angry that he laughed. "Then tell me, where did you work? Have you become a decent human being? Looking at your tattered clothes, I can guess that you haven't made a name for yourself! "
"Nonsense! I am now working as a security consultant for Xin Ao Group! Have you heard of the Xin Ao Group? Mingzhu was a star company in recent years. He even appeared on Pearl Morning News! Its market value was worth a few billion! I'm afraid you'll be scared to death if I tell you! "Xiao Zheng said solemnly.
"What bullsh * t security consultant?" Ol 'Amos fumed with rage. "Aren't you just guarding the gate? Do you think I'm senile enough to believe your nonsense? "
"Come out! I promise I won't beat you to death!" the dean shouted as he rubbed his palms together.
Xiao Zheng could not help but nudge Lin Huayin lightly when the old academy president exposed his lie. He said in a low voice, "Hurry up and help me out. If he gets his hands on me, he'll really break my legs. "
Lin Huayin, who was usually as calm as still water, saw the fearless Lin Huayin being forced into a corner by the old academy president. She immediately felt that this trip was not in vain. When she heard Xiao Zheng's pleas, not only did she not say anything to stop him, but she also took two steps to the side and made way for the two of them to face each other. Xiao Zheng was scared out of his wits, and his face turned green.
"You little rascal! Let's see where you can run to! " Although the old academy president was old, his body was still strong despite his age. He rushed in front of Xiao Zheng and swung his palm toward Xiao Zheng's face.
With Xiao Zheng's current means, he could even kill seven or eight burly men in their prime like chopping vegetables, let alone an old man who was over 80 years old. But how would he dare to attack the old academy president? Even if he dodged, he was afraid that the old academy president would miss and fall on his own.
Therefore, when he saw the old academy president's powerful slap coming toward him, he stood where he was and closed his eyes, as if waiting for death.
Lin Huayin did not expect the old academy president to really make a move. She was about to speak up to stop him, but the slap she imagined did not land on Xiao Zheng's face. Instead, when it got close to Xiao Zheng's face, it gradually withdrew its strength and gently patted Xiao Zheng's face.
How was this a slap? It was more like a senior caressing a junior. Lin Huayin was quite moved by the overflowing affection he had for her.
Just how deep were their feelings for each other for the old academy head to turn from rage into deep benevolence?
"You little rascal, it's been seven years. Why didn't you come back earlier? Weren't you afraid that you wouldn't be able to see me one last time? "The old academy president's murky eyes were filled with hot tears as he pinched Xiao Zheng's face hard and chided him. "Did you think that you didn't make a name for yourself and don't have the face to see me again?"
Xiao Zheng slowly opened his eyes and stared at the old academy president's increasingly aged face. His nose felt sour and his eyes were dry and hot. He choked back his sobs and said, "You're tough. The King of Hell wouldn't dare to take you in. I'll take you back even if I have to. "
"Nonsense!" The old academy president's voice trembled. "We haven't seen each other for seven years and you're still full of nonsense."
That being said, in the old academy president's heart, how could this troublesome little fellow not be the closest to him and the person he liked the most?
In fact, the old academy president, who had no children, had long treated Xiao Zheng as his own son.
What did it matter to a father whether a son could make a name for himself or not? As long as he was happy and healthy, it was more important than anything else.
Xiao Zheng smiled. A smile that came from the bottom of his heart was always pure and bright. It was far more contagious than the exaggerated smiles he used to put on in the past.
At this moment, the Xiao Zheng in Lin Huayin's eyes was no longer as frivolous and heartless as before. She also saw Xiao Zheng's true feelings, which he would not easily reveal in front of outsiders.
This made Lin Huayin feel closer and more real to him. She also became more adorable.
However, when Lin Huayin was moved by this heartwarming scene, a figure that she hated appeared in her mind. A man who was destined to be implicated for the rest of his life but could never be forgiven.
How good would it be if he was like the old academy president in front of her?
After the old academy president gradually calmed his surging emotions, he gradually realized that there was an astonishingly beautiful woman in the room. She came with Xiao Zheng. Judging from her age and appearance, she matched Xiao Zheng's aesthetic standards since he was young. Feeling gratified, he asked passionately, "Young lady, you're Xiao Zheng's girlfriend, right?"
Without waiting for Lin Huayin, who was immersed in her own world, to answer. Xiao Zheng corrected her on his own accord, "What girlfriend? She's my wife. She's protected by the law! "
Lin Huayin's brows furrowed. She was very displeased that Xiao Zheng had exposed their relationship in front of everyone. But very quickly, she relaxed and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
Smack!
The old academy president slapped Xiao Zheng's head and said angrily, "You didn't even inform me that you're getting married? What, did you really think I was dead? "
