Lu Dashan laughed heartily and said, "I'm not doubting your innocence." After a pause, he continued with a somewhat sinister and cunning tone. "But when it comes to fate, it's better to come at the right time. Don't you think so? "
Xiao Zheng's heart sank. 'Could it be that Lu Dashan has taken a liking to me and wants me to be his son-in-law? If that's the case, I must discuss the price with him. If it's too little, how can I, Xiao Zheng, raise my head in the future? '
Xiao Zheng grinned and said awkwardly, "Uncle Lu, did your water and electricity shut down?"
"Mhmm." Seeing that Xiao Zheng was trying to change the topic, Lu Dashan did not say anything else. He just smiled like a sly old fox, making one's hair stand on end.
"I used to work as a plumber. Why don't I take a look at it?" Xiao Zheng smiled. "Maybe it's just a simple switch."
"Huh? You used to work in water and electricity? "Lu Dashan said in disbelief.
This kid is really proficient in all kinds of martial arts. He can even fix water and electricity. He's really capable. Lu Dashan's mind flashed with his wife's instructions. "Xiao Zheng, when are you free? Uncle Lu will treat you to a meal. It's at my house. You can go there directly."
Xiao Zheng saw that Lu Dashan's smile was full of meaning. He couldn't help but be on guard, "Are you bringing my mother-in-law?"
Could it be that this old fellow still hasn't given up and is still thinking about my mother-in-law?
"You can bring her if you want. But I'm mainly treating you to a meal. "Lu Dashan smiled. Not at all ambiguous.
"Okay. I'm free anytime. Just call me and I'll go. "Xiao Zheng smiled.
"That's it for now. I should go back." Lu Dashan stood up.
"Do you need me to check the water and electricity?" Xiao Zheng also stood up and walked him to the door.
"No need. I called the plumber, and it's almost time. "Lu Dashan waved his hand and went straight home.
After watching Lu Dashan leave, Xiao Zheng did not close the door and enter the house. Instead, he lit a cigarette and stood at the door, smoking leisurely. His pitch-black eyes scanned the surroundings, and he was secretly shocked.
Ever since he accompanied the mother and daughter out shopping in the morning, Xiao Zheng had sensed that there was a master tailing him. A true expert. It was a terrifying existence that even Xiao Zheng did not dare to take lightly.
However, these experts did not deliberately hide their existence. Of course, they did not openly appear in front of the three of them. They only maintained a relatively safe distance and followed behind them without affecting their daily lives.
They had appeared with Ye Yuhua, so they were definitely not ordinary assassins or mercenaries. Even with the terrifying strength of these top-notch experts, Xiao Zheng did not feel the slightest bit of hostility. On the contrary, throughout the entire process, they presented themselves as guards or bodyguards. Perhaps, their appearance was to protect Ye Yuhua?
If that was the case, then Ye Yuhua's identity was too extraordinary. No wonder even a legendary figure like Lu Dashan would come to visit.
After smoking, Xiao Zheng did not continue to stay outside the door. Instead, he went upstairs to make up for his sleep. If it was a few years ago, it was normal for Xiao Zheng to stay up for two or three days without sleep, let alone one day and one night. After returning to the country, Xiao Zheng had changed his routine and slowly adapted to the good routine of working at sunrise and sleeping at sunset. Just one night without sleep had made him dizzy and weak. He felt that he was old and his physical strength was not as good as before.
Upstairs, he greeted Lin Huayin, who was sitting at her desk working. Then he went into the bathroom to take a shower and lay on the bed to sleep. Perhaps it was because he had been with Lin Huayin for a long time, or because he had obtained the approval of his mother-in-law and gained confidence, Xiao Zheng was no longer as reserved and nervous as before. Instead, he took a shower and slept naturally. Except that he still did not dare to go too far with Lin Huayin, he could basically maintain the mode of getting along with each other more than friends and less than lovers.
That was enough.
Lin Huayin did not have many friends. To be more than friends, Xiao Zheng was quite satisfied.
When he woke up, it was already dark. Lin Huayin did not seem to have changed her position. She had been working in front of the computer, but she changed from typing on the keyboard to taking notes. He did not know whether it was because of the need of work or because she was afraid of disturbing Xiao Zheng's sleep. Looking at her slightly tired face, Xiao Zheng felt distressed. He got up and asked, "Have you been working?"
"Yes." Lin Huayin looked at the computer while writing on the notebook. She let out a simple syllable from her nose as a response.
Xiao Zheng walked to Lin Huayin's side and closed Lin Huayin's computer. He frowned and said, "Today is your birthday. Can't you take a day off?" "What time is it now? If you work like this every day, even if your brain can take it, your body can't. "
The computer was brutally closed by Xiao Zheng. Lin Huayin did not protest. She just used a pen to take notes and lightly said, "Recently, there have been many things to do in the company."
"But you can't not rest." Xiao Zheng took away Lin Huayin's notebook with a firm attitude. "Today is a day off. Other than eating, drinking, and playing, there is nothing else to do."
After the notebook was snatched away, Lin Huayin stood up and glared at Xiao Zheng. "Xiao Zheng, don't push your luck. Give me back the notebook! "
"No." Xiao Zheng took a few steps back. His face was full of male chauvinism. "What time is it now? Even if you don't eat, my mother-in-law will eat, right?"
"I have booked a vegetarian restaurant. I will eat when I am done. "Lin Huayin said coldly. "Give me back my notebook."
Xiao Zheng saw that she was more nervous than normal about the small notebook. He couldn't help but wonder, "What is written in this notebook? Why does it feel like it is your lifeblood? "
After that, he opened the notebook and began to look at it without manners.
"Give it back!" Lin Huayin saw that he wanted to read it. She jumped over and wanted to snatch the notebook from Xiao Zheng's hand.
How could Xiao Zheng let Lin Huayin have her way so easily? He turned around and avoided Lin Huayin's forceful snatch. He casually flipped through a few pages. They were all business records that he couldn't understand. There were some professional terms that he hadn't even heard before. It was confusing.
"Sigh, we are husband and wife. Why are you so defensive?" Xiao Zheng shook his head. "Are you afraid that I will read too much and get hold of Xin Ao's business secrets and cause harm to the company?"
Lin Huayin didn't explain. She just desperately tried to snatch the notebook from Xiao Zheng's hand.
Just as Xiao Zheng was about to return it to Lin Huayin in boredom, he discovered a shocking secret on one of the pages with a larger gap.
Suddenly seeing this page, Xiao Zheng's body trembled. His eyes widened like a bull's eyes. He said in disbelief, "This … You did this?"
Lin Huayin's pretty face turned pale. She wanted to snatch the notebook back. She said coldly, "It's none of your business!"
