Xiao Zheng wouldn't refuse Lin Huayin's invitation. Of course, he didn't dare to.
Just like how Lin Huayin slowly figured out Xiao Zheng's routine, Xiao Zheng also basically figured out Lin Huayin's details.
Yes. This woman occasionally gave people the impression that she was unapproachable and unreasonable. But most of the time, she was just a woman who wasn't good with words and wouldn't easily reveal her sadness or happiness. But this didn't mean that she didn't have sadness or happiness, and it didn't mean that she didn't have feelings.
As long as he could figure out Lin Huayin's emotional context, Xiao Zheng could firmly grasp this woman in the palm of his hand. She couldn't escape even if she had wings.
Just like now, Xiao Zheng clearly realized that Lin Huayin wasn't in a good mood, and he had to go in. Otherwise, the backyard would be on fire and the grape trellis would collapse.
Knock, knock.
Symbolically knocking on the door, Xiao Zheng pushed the door open and entered.
Lin Huayin wasn't sitting in front of the desk as meticulously as usual. Instead, she was sitting on the massage chair beside her. She didn't turn on the chair and just sat there casually. Then, she looked at Xiao Zheng who walked in.
"Don't you have to work tonight?"
Although it was already 11: 30 at night, in order to avoid the unexpected disaster, Xiao Zheng still asked such a heartless question. He hoped that it could divert Lin Huayin's attention.
"Yes." Lin Huayin nodded lightly and pointed to the chair directly opposite her. "Sit."
Xiao Zheng obediently sat on the chair, but he was a little restless. He didn't know how he offended this iceberg woman.
Xiao Zheng didn't speak, and Lin Huayin didn't seem to be in a hurry to speak. So, the two simply fell into an oppressive silence.
The north wind whistled outside the window, and the light in the room was warm. Especially when there was a beautiful woman sitting directly opposite him, as if she was a person from a painting. Needless to say, at a certain moment, Xiao Zheng was very satisfied. As long as Lin Huayin could never say a word …
"His name is Yen Teng-kuei," Lin Huayin suddenly introduced in a calm tone. "My classmates from elementary school and middle school."
"Xiaozhu told me everything." Xiao Zheng's heart thumped. He couldn't figure out what Lin Huayin's intention was for the time being.
Could it be that she had noticed the conflict between him and Yen Teng-kuei?
"He's Yan Shang and Shang Yao's big brother. He is also the most promising member of the third generation of the Yan family, "Lin Huayin said calmly.
"To be able to enter the inspection team at such a young age, he is indeed in the limelight." Xiao Zheng smiled.
"Before I was six. The Yan Family and the Lin Family have always had a good relationship. "Lin Huayin paused and corrected herself. "To be more precise, it's the Yan and Ye families."
"What happened next?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
He liked to listen to the gossip of the rich and powerful. It was much more interesting than the underground love in the entertainment circle.
"After their divorce, the Lin Family rose. The Ye Family became hostile because of this unfortunate marriage, so the Yan Family naturally wouldn't be too close to the Lin Family. Especially in the past ten years, the rapid rise of the Lin Family had a great impact on the Yan Family. It also formed a very strong competition. "Lin Huayin explained.
"No wonder Shang Yao and Xiaozhu don't like each other. It turns out that there is such a relationship. "Xiao Zheng shook his head with a bitter smile and then asked in a good mood. "But the Yan Family seems to only target the Lin Family. Or, they only target the Lin Family without the Ye Family, and they don't have much grudge with you? "
Lin Huayin slightly lowered her eyebrows and said lightly, "Yes."
Lin Huayin didn't deny it, and she didn't need to.
Why did the Yan Family and Lin Huayin not get along? In fact, the biggest competition with the Yan Family was the Lin Family. The biggest opponent of Shang Jingtian was only the Lin Family's master, Lin Chaotian. The Ye Family? Even if it wasn't for the sake of the two old people, Shang Jingtian really wouldn't be interested in Ye Canghua. When two people didn't have enough reason to compete, it was very easy to become friends. Even if it was just fair-weather friends.
As for Lin Huayin, it was even more out of the question. Even if she was Lin Chaotian's eldest daughter. But at the same time, she was Lord Ye's only granddaughter. A low-key, introverted woman who didn't even develop in Beijing.
Therefore, the Yan Family still had a certain good impression of Lin Huayin. Especially — everyone in the circle knew that the eldest son of the Yan Family, Yen Teng-kuei, liked Lin Huayin very much. Even if it wasn't for the monk's sake, the Yan Family represented by Shang Jingtian would definitely not have any hostile opinion towards Lin Huayin.
Xiao Zheng was more and more confused about the reason why Lin Huayin discussed these topics with him tonight. But he didn't take the initiative to ask, he just listened patiently. Listening to Lin Huayin's speech.
"Shang Yao isn't even as thoughtful as Xiao Zhu. Yan Shang is also just an ignorant and incompetent playboy. He's a bit ruthless, a bit strong. But in that circle, his insignificant means are not elegant. "Lin Huayin commented on the two descendants of the Yan Family word by word.
"But Yen Teng-kuei is different." Lin Huayin commented expressionlessly. "He is recognized by many elders as the best of the third generation. He is also very diligent. He entered the inspection team at a young age and was given an important task. Many people say that if nothing unexpected happens, he will become the second Shang Jingtian of the Yan Family in 20 years. His name is well-known in Beijing. "
Smiling, Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette, then slowly changed to a more comfortable position. He squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "You are praising him without reservation in front of me. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"
"I didn't praise him." Lin Huayin said expressionlessly. "I'm just telling others what they said about him."
"What's your personal evaluation of him?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
"Not familiar with him." Lin Huayin said indifferently.
"Not familiar?" Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows. He was very satisfied in his heart, but he said it in a strange tone. "He is your primary school classmate, junior high school classmate, and you have known him for more than 20 years. How can you not be familiar with him? "
"I have so many classmates. Should I be familiar with all of them?" Lin Huayin asked back.
"But you have known each other since you were young." Xiao Zheng added.
"There are too many people who know me when I was young." Lin Huayin said. "Do I need to know each other and be familiar with each other?"
Xiao Zheng was speechless. He suddenly turned his face away and said with dissatisfaction, "Sophistry."
He was not jealous, but he seemed to be jealous. Obviously, he pretended to be like this for Lin Huayin.
Lin Huayin stared at Xiao Zheng in silence. There was no expression on her face, but there was a touch of light in her eyes. After a moment, she took the initiative to speak again and said, "I came to you to clarify with you."
"Clarify what?" Xiao Zheng asked with a grin. His face was full of hatred.
"If Xiaozhu didn't invite him into the house, I would have ended the conversation with him at the door on the grounds of inconvenience." Lin Huayin said it in a relaxed manner, but it was full of determination.
Xiao Zheng was even happier. His face seemed to be blooming with joy. He said proudly, "Then tell me, who is more handsome, me or him?"
Hearing that, Lin Huayin couldn't help but raise her head slightly. After looking at him for a long time, she said slowly, "Don't force me to lie."
