Lin Huayin had always been a woman with great self-control. In the short 26 years of her life, it was only on the day that she met Xiao Zheng that she unscrupulously got herself drunk. Before or after, she never impulsively challenged the limit of her alcohol tolerance. And no one could encourage her to drink cup after cup of wine.
But today, she had drunk herself into a drunken stupor again. She even needed Xiao Zheng's help to walk. Several times when she went upstairs, she missed her steps. If it weren't for Xiao Zheng's sharp eyes and quick hands, maybe she would have rolled down the stairs. She made a fool of herself.
With great difficulty, he helped Lin Huayin, who reeked of alcohol, into the room. Xiao Zheng, who was tired and sweating, carried her to the bed, then covered her with the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Why?"
Lin Huayin, whose mind had long been confused, suddenly grabbed Xiao Zheng's arm, closed her beautiful eyes slightly and said, "I — tell you!"
"You are my — man!"
"No one can — take you away!"
Lin Huayin intermittently went into a drunken frenzy, but she revealed the true thoughts in her heart.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he was moved in his heart, but he was also surprised by Lin Huayin's stubborn temper.
In all honesty, Xiao Zheng could feel that Lin Huayin was slowly changing. But he never thought that Lin Huayin would greatly damage her image for him. She even did something like drinking, which would never happen in Lin Huayin's world.
His eyes fell gently on Lin Huayin's red cheeks. The woman's eyes slowly closed, and her long eyelashes dotted her cold but clear beautiful eyes. Perhaps because she drank too much, the woman's beautiful eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and a touch of pitiful pain appeared on her beautiful face. It must be because of the alcohol. Even if she closed her eyes to sleep, she only felt that the world was spinning and her heart was beating like thunder.
"Alas —"
Xiao Zheng sat by the bed and lit a cigarette. He pulled open the curtains and tried to ventilate the room as much as possible. Then, he went to the bathroom to wash a towel and wipe the fine beads of sweat off Lin Huayin's forehead. When he returned to the bedside, Lin Huayin had already fallen into a deep sleep. But even so, the pain on her face did not lessen. It seemed that the drunkenness this time had really reached the limit of what her body could endure.
Wasn't it —
He obviously couldn't outdrink Tina, but he held on with his willpower. If he drank it like that, wouldn't it cause great harm to his body?
However, Xiao Zheng did not try to persuade him, nor did he dare to. Of course, with Xiao Zheng's understanding of Lin Huayin, no one could object to her decisions. Even nine bulls would not be able to pull him back.
After quietly watching Lin Huayin for a while and making sure that she wouldn't get up to vomit, he quietly walked out of the room. But as soon as he turned around, he saw Tina standing at the door with a slightly pale face, looking at him calmly.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Zheng asked with concern.
Tina shook her head and asked in return, "Where is she?"
"Asleep." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and smiled bitterly. "But even if she wakes up, she'll feel bad for a few days."
Lin Huayin really drank too much. She didn't have enough experience getting drunk. Now that she was so drunk, she would probably have to be careful when she ate for the next few days. If she drank too much, she might vomit into a mess.
"I'm sorry." Tina's voice was hoarse.
Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned. He shook his head and said, "It's not your fault."
It takes two hands to clap. If Lin Huayin didn't have a grudge, she wouldn't have gotten so drunk. Xiao Zheng didn't want to be biased and push the responsibility of Lin Huayin's drunkenness to Tina. Even if Tina was the one who started it.
There was a small sunroom at the end of the corridor on the second floor. When the sun was charming and the weather was good, Xiao Zheng would choose a holiday afternoon to enjoy the wind and drink a glass of red wine. He would enjoy the beauty of life without restraint.
Ma Choi Jun and the others were still eating and drinking, talking about life and the upcoming work. Looking at Ma Choi Jun's proud expression, it was obvious that he had announced to Mega Gun that he would be the CEO of the branch. And judging from the reactions of Houzi, Siyan and the others, they were not very satisfied and happy. But they still silently accepted this arrangement that seemed unfair to them.
Xiao Zheng and Tina came to the sunroom. It was noon, and the warm and bright sunlight shone in. Xiao Zheng made a cup of honey for Tina who drank too much. He smiled bitterly and said, "Drink a cup of honey to warm your stomach. Don't drink like this next time. It's bad for your body. "
Tina took the honey, took a sip and said, "I won't do it again."
But from her tone, it was hard to tell if she was saying that she would not drink like crazy next time, or that she would not have conflicts with Lin Huayin again.
Xiao Zheng smiled and asked, "Have you really decided?"
"What?" Tina asked back.
"Stay in Xin Ao and be her secretary." Xiao Zheng asked patiently.
"Yes." Tina nodded.
"You can see that she is not the kind of person who is easy to get along with. She is also very strict with her subordinates at work. I'm worried that some of her actions or words will make you unhappy, "Xiao Zheng said slowly. "So, I still hope that you will think about it carefully. Staying in the headquarters is actually not a very good choice. "
"You want me to leave?" Tina stared at Xiao Zheng calmly. It was as if she wanted to see through Xiao Zheng's eyes and see through his soul.
"Of course not —" Xiao Zheng shook his head. "I'm just afraid that you won't be happy if you stay."
Tina slowly put down the honey and said word by word, "I will only be happy if I stay."
Xiao Zheng's heart skipped a beat, but his expression changed slightly. He lit a cigarette and said slowly, "As long as you are happy."
This was the best answer Xiao Zheng could think of. There was no other answer.
Even Ma Choi Jun and the others could see Tina's feelings for him. Xiao Zheng was not an idiot. How could he not have any reaction?
But there were some things that could not be done just because he knew it. Especially love.
He could fall in love with Blue Heart without any reservation. Because from the beginning, he did not give Blue Heart any position. And after knowing what Blue Heart had done for him, he, who was not mentally strong, accepted her directly like a flood.
But he did not have enough ability to support him to accept Tina. It was not because he wanted to be single-minded, nor was it because Tina was not outstanding enough, not attractive enough. It was because from the beginning, when the two of them knew each other and walked together, Tina's position in his heart was that of a comrade, a comrade, and a friend who could give up his life for her.
Once he fell in love, it was destined to become dangerous.
So he personally cut off all possibilities for Tina. He also cold-bloodedly cut off the most likely relationship between a man and a woman. Not a brother, not a comrade, but a lover.
This was a very strange psychological phenomenon. It was like a certain opposite sex beside countless ordinary men. From the beginning, they did not intend to develop into lovers. Or maybe because of the environment at that time, it was impossible to develop into lovers. But suddenly, one day, all the restrictions and restraints disappeared. When the two of them could become lovers openly and without any burden. Not all men could actively or passively accept this opposite sex.
Coincidentally, Tina was such a opposite sex beside Xiao Zheng.
Could Tina understand Xiao Zheng's psychological thoughts?
Maybe, maybe not.
But this psychological phenomenon was only for Xiao Zheng. It had nothing to do with Tina.
Therefore, from the beginning until now, she had been following behind Xiao Zheng without any hesitation, like a shadow following him.
