One room, one key.
What an artsy line.
Shang Yao asked Xiao Zheng for a room. The meaning behind it was also quite profound.
It was even full of subtext.
After Xiao Zheng sent Shang Yao home, he said that he would send someone to give her the key.
"It would be best if Boss Xiao gave it to me personally." Shang Yao stood beside the car and said with a smile. "I don't care if it's a gift from someone else."
Shang Yao didn't want to stay in the room in the Dragon Phoenix Courtyard. But she had to.
It was just like how a little girl had to have enough dolls. She might not like all of them. But if she didn't, she would lose face. It wouldn't be able to satisfy a young girl's heart.
That was Shang Yao's thoughts.
It was a thought that Xiao Zheng might or might not understand.
After returning home, Xiao Zheng and Old Lin discussed Zhao Yin's intentions behind his actions. After Old Lin heard about it, he said calmly, "Zhao Yin has long wanted to enter the business world of Hua Xia. He has only entered the door with the title of Vice-President. Otherwise, when he does things, it will be somewhat unjustifiable. "
Xiao Zheng nodded, agreeing with Old Lin's view. "The more tricks Zhao Yin plays, the more it proves that he doesn't have enough power in the business world of Hua Xia. Otherwise, he could have made a fortune in silence. "
"He was also forced." Old Lin suddenly smiled and looked at Xiao Zheng from the corner of his eyes. "Under the pressure of Boss Xiao, how could Zhao Yin not do something to prove himself?"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, "Wife, you think too highly of me."
"It's not a compliment. It's the truth," Old Lin said seriously. "The original situation was that Zhao Yin and him were working together to suppress you. But now, it's you and him who are suppressing Zhao Yin. To a certain extent, this will infuriate Zhao Yin. And make him do more things. "
Xiao Zheng suddenly felt that the situation was better. "Then tell me, why did my father-in-law suddenly go back on his word?" he asked smugly.
"Do you think that's betrayal?" Old Lin turned around and glared at Xiao Zheng. He brought the freshly brewed coffee over.
For Old Lin, coffee was not enough to keep him awake. Just like drinking water, it had long turned into a drip of life.
"Isn't that the case?" The optimistic Xiao Zheng was troubled again.
"That's just a conflict between him and Zhao Yin. Coincidentally, you're also involved in it. So, it looks like you're in an alliance with him. "Old Lin pursed his lips and said. "But when it comes to family feuds, he and Zhao Yin will stand on the same side unconditionally. And you are their common enemy. "
Xiao Zheng exhaled and snatched the cup of coffee that Elder Lin was about to drink. "Don't always drink coffee. You still have to breastfeed. "
Elder Lin didn't struggle. He just glanced at Xiao Zheng. "It's good to be optimistic, but don't be naive."
Xiao Zheng took a sip of coffee and rubbed his eyebrows. "Forget it. Let's not think about these things. One day, the haze in this city will be swept away. "
Elder Lin's expression changed slightly. He said softly, "I just don't know whether it's sunlight or darkness beyond this haze."
Being in a high position, the fear of ordinary people couldn't understand. Perhaps for most people, Xiao Zheng's life had already reached its peak.
But only those who were close to him and understood him knew. His life was actually far less happy and relaxed than most ordinary people.
He was very anxious.
As time passed, as the Zhao family's actions became more and more frequent. Xiao Zheng knew that the biggest challenge of his life was about to come.
…
Lin family.
Dong Bijun was preparing dinner in the kitchen. Before Lin Xiaozhu got off work, she called and asked her daughter to spend the night at her brother-in-law's house. Today, Lin Laoyao had to meet a guest. Try not to go home.
This was a code between mother and daughter.
Lin Xiaozhu knew that the uncle, who had no family ties, was coming to visit again.
Dong Bijun prepared a sumptuous dinner, and every dish was carefully prepared. She hoped to fight for Lin Chaotian's face as much as possible. Even if it was such a small thing, Lin Chaotian might not care about it at all.
But in her position, her meaning at home was to wash clothes and cook. She could go to the hall and the kitchen.
The brothers in the restaurant were already drinking. And it was different from the warmth between most brothers. They just sat on the chairs, drinking wine and eating. The conversation between them was pitiful. Occasionally, one or two conversations were full of suspense.
Dong Bijun put the last dish on the table and was ready to go back to her room to rest.
At this time, Zhao Yin suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Sister-in-law, sit down and eat. After a busy night, it's time to relax. "
Dong Bijun was a little embarrassed.
Strictly speaking, she didn't want to face Zhao Yin.
This man was too scary. And not pleasant.
Secondly, she didn't know what Lin Chaotian meant. If he nodded and was willing to let her stay. Of course, Dong Bijun could bite the bullet and drink a few cups.
"Go do your work," Lin Laoyao said indifferently.
Dong Bijun let out a breath. She knew that Lin Chaotian didn't want her to get involved.
"Go ahead, brother." Dong Bijun smiled and turned to go upstairs.
"You're still protecting her?" Zhao Yin glanced at Lin Chaotian coldly. "Do I need to tell you what good things she has done?"
Hearing that, Lin Chaotian frowned slightly and said, "This is my family matter."
"An elder brother is like a father," Zhao Yin said concisely. "As long as I am willing, I can interfere in your matters."
Lin Laoyao put down his wine cup and gradually calmed down.
He had no interest in arguing with Zhao Yin about this ethical issue. Today, he was only inviting this increasingly impudent brother as the host.
He was Zhao Yin's biological brother, yes. But he had a complete personality and an independent life. Apart from revenge, which was unavoidable, Lin Laoyao wouldn't compromise with Zhao Yin on anything.
Zhao Yin didn't have any capital to control Lin Laoyao either.
The relationship between these two brothers might be very good, or it might be very weak. But no matter what, based on their personalities, they weren't men who were good at expressing their emotions.
"I've decided," Zhao Yin said, pursing his lips. "In the near future, I'll do it."
Lin Laoyao's expression was a bit solemn. "You'd better use conventional methods."
"Are you warning me?" Zhao Yin said in a low voice.
"I'm reminding you," Lin Laoyao said, pursing his lips.
"Zhao Chaotian, I don't think you've ever thought about revenge. Am I right? "Zhao Yin asked coldly. "Have you forgotten how your father died? Have you forgotten why you didn't have a family and had to wander with me?
If you have forgotten, I can slowly tell you why the first half of your life was so miserable, "Zhao Yin said word by word.
