The noodles were prepared by the CEO's assistant, Sister Hong, for the workaholic Lin Huayin, and the red wine was given by Lawyer Deng. If it weren't for Xiao Zheng's inexplicable barging in today, these instant noodles and the king of red wine would have probably passed their expiration date and wouldn't have been able to be used.
Lin Huayin was born into a wealthy family and was doted on since she was young. The education and food requirements that she received were not something that Xiao Zheng, who was an orphan and had only graduated from high school, could compare to. She rarely touched instant noodles, which were unhealthy and fattening junk food. If it weren't for the special situation today, she would probably wait until work was over and go home to eat some digestible green food. So, from the beginning, she was full of rejection towards the noodles that Xiao Zheng made. She wanted to eat a few mouthfuls to make her stomach feel better and then start working. But who knew that after eating one mouthful, she would be attracted by the rich fragrance of the instant noodles. Her slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and a hint of surprise appeared on her cold and jade-like face.
This instant noodles — it actually wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. Lin Huayin, who was so hungry that she panicked, took one mouthful after another. She, who never had a good appetite, unknowingly finished the entire instant noodles.
Spicy instant noodles paired with 1982 Lafite, Lin Huayin tried to eat a nouveau riche and a country bumpkin. It was even scarier than red wine paired with Sprite.
Different from Lin Huayin's initial rejection and acceptance, Blue Heart was filled with affection for this ordinary bowl of instant noodles that had taken Xiao Zheng a lot of effort.
Yes. This was the first meal that Xiao Zheng made for her. Even though it was simple instant noodles, and even though Lin Huayin shared it with her. But for Blue Heart, who was in love for the first time in her life, it was the most wonderful experience of her life. Occasionally, when she looked at Xiao Zheng, there was an unconcealable joy in her eyes. It was as soft as water and full of deep affection.
Fortunately, Lin Huayin's state of mind wasn't calm. Otherwise, with her observation ability, she would have been able to see through the ambiguous relationship between the two within the first minute. How could he be easily kept in the dark?
"The noodles taste good, right?" Xiao Zheng, who had eaten and drank to his heart's content, lit a cigarette and smiled. "Even if it's instant noodles, they're still very particular about how they're eaten. You can't add water for the first soak. The seasoning must be added after the water is added. This way, not only can it effectively prevent the preservatives from fusing into the broth, but it will also make the taste smoother. "
"You know quite a bit," Blue Heart said with a Smile.
"It's nothing!" Xiao Zheng waved his hand modestly and smiled. "I saw some fresh fruits in the fridge just now. You guys go ahead, I'll prepare a fruit platter for dessert."
"Sure." Blue Heart nodded.
To her, as long as she could get along with Xiao Zheng, she would be happy no matter what she did. Even if there was a super beautiful woman acting as a third wheel, Blue Heart didn't mind.
However, just because she didn't mind, it didn't mean that Lin Huayin didn't mind. Just as Xiao Zheng was about to get up and prepare the fruit platter, he heard Lin Huayin say with a frown, "After you finish eating, you can go patrol. Your presence here will affect our work. "
Her attitude was indifferent, and although her tone wasn't too forceful, it carried an unquestionable dignity.
Xiao Zheng was slightly startled, but he couldn't retort. Otherwise, Blue Heart, who was slowly getting used to being in the same room as him, would become suspicious. He didn't say anything else and smiled towards the two female bosses, Xin Ao, and said, "Then, Boss Lin, you guys go ahead with your work. I'll go patrol."
After speaking, he turned and left.
"Boss Lin, what do you think of Xiao Zheng?" Blue Heart's personality was gentle and easygoing, and she was widely praised in Xin Ao. Even the icy Lin Huayin wouldn't treat her too coldly. However, when faced with this question, she couldn't help but frown. "He's just a security guard, what can he do?"
"Don't you think he's different from other security guards?" Blue Heart smiled, her tone filled with warmth.
"I don't think so," Lin Huayin lied.
Didn't think so?
Lin Huayin wanted to kill this bastard. Not only did he barge into the office in the middle of the night, he even smoked and drank. What did he think this place was? A brothel? It was fortunate that Blue Heart was here, but what if she wasn't? Wasn't he afraid of being seen by others?
Lin Huayin decided that she would give Xiao Zheng a warning when she got home, or else their relationship would be exposed sooner or later.
Blue Heart still wanted to ask a few more questions. One was to see what Lin Huayin thought of Xiao Zheng, and the other was to give Lin Huayin a foreshadowing so that she wouldn't be too shocked in the future.
Blue Heart, Xin Ao's CFO, was only below Lin Huayin in the company's upper management. If she wanted to date a security guard in the company, no one would stop her, and no one would dare to stop her. The only thing she was worried about was that Lin Huayin would feel embarrassed and cause trouble.
However, Lin Huayin didn't seem to want to talk about Xiao Zheng with Blue Heart at all. She said calmly, "Let's get back to work and settle the remaining questions. Then, we can go home and rest. It's getting late."
Blue Heart was slightly disappointed. She nodded and said, "Okay."
…
"This woman dares to chase me away?" Xiao Zheng had his hands in his pockets and a cigarette in his mouth. He slowly walked up the stairs and narrowed his eyes. "Isn't she afraid that I'll fight to the death and ruin her reputation?"
"Hmph! If there's a next time, I, Xiao Zheng, won't let this matter rest! "
The narrow-minded Xiao Zheng thought viciously. Seeing that it was time to get off work, he snuck into the elevator to change his clothes and prepared to go home.
Because his phone was out of battery, Xiao Zheng left his phone in the office to charge. When he came back, it was fully charged. As soon as he turned it on, there were many messages and many missed calls. They were all the same number — Lin Xiaozhu!
"Ah!" Xiao Zheng woke up as if he had just woken up from a dream and slapped his forehead. "I forgot to pick up my sister-in-law from work!"
As Xiao Zheng rushed to the parking lot, he read Lin Xiaozhu's indignant message. He was so scared that he was sweating profusely and his face was red.
"Brother-in-law, I'll be out of school in ten minutes. Have you arrived at school? " This was the first message that Lin Xiaozhu, who was packing her luggage in the girl's apartment, sent to Xiao Zheng at 5: 15.
"Brother-in-law! I'm at the school gate! You're not here yet? "
According to the time shown on the mobile phone, Lin Xiaozhu called Xiao Zheng three times in the following days. After confirming that Xiao Zheng's phone was turned off, she took a taxi home.
It had been six hours since the last phone call. Lin Xiaozhu didn't continue to send Xiao Zheng another message or call.
Was she angry? Angry? Was she going to take revenge on him?
Xiao Zheng rubbed his stiff face and had a splitting headache.
He went to the parking lot to get the car. Xiao Zheng drove home and thought about how to explain to his sister-in-law later. But when he was waiting for a red light, Shen Manjun's charming face floated in his mind.
"Is this woman aiming at me or Lin Huayin?" Xiao Zheng rolled down the window and lit a cigarette. He took out his phone and called the Four-eyed Man.
The phone was quickly connected. Siyan's excited shout came from the other side of the phone, "Boss, you called me so early. Are you going to come back? If so, I will immediately contact Mega Gun Houzi to give you a beautiful task as your comeback work. "
Xiao Zheng heard the tone of Siyan who had just woken up and said lazily, "Get the woman around you out first. I have something to talk to you. "
"Okay …" Siyan awkwardly agreed, and then there was the sound of the sleeping woman. Obviously, she didn't want to go.
After a few minutes, Siyan asked with a clear mind, "Boss, why are you looking for me? It's just a matter of saying the word to climb a mountain of swords and plunge into a pot of boiling oil! "
Xiao Zheng curled his lips and said, "Find a girlfriend seriously. Is it so interesting to find a prostitute every day? "After a pause, Xiao Zheng continued. "Open your baby and help me find someone."
"Okay!" There was a clicking sound on the other side, and then there was Siyan's inquiry. "Boss, who are you looking for?"
"Shen Manjun, female. Hua Xia, between 25 and 30 years old. Currently the general manager of the Pearl Empire State Building. "Xiao Zheng said casually.
"No problem. Boss, wait for me for a few minutes. "There was another clicking sound on the other side, and he was in a crazy search.
As a six-man mercenary group, Xiao Zheng was the leader and brain of the group. Usually, he would be the one to propose and execute any major decisions. The computer expert, Siyan, was in charge of intelligence gathering, and provided powerful intelligence support for the mission. Mega Gun was in charge of weapons, Houzi was in charge of logistics, and Ma Choi Jun was in charge of scouting and scouting. As a self-proclaimed gentleman and handsome guy, he even called his mission: public relations.
"Without my impeccable acting skills and comprehensive contact with the target, especially the women, do you think you can complete the mission easily?" Ma Choi Jun, who defined himself as the face of the group, always thought that he was the most talented man in the six-man group.
Tina, who gave Xiao Zheng the most headaches and scared the four of them the most, usually formed a two-man team with Xiao Zheng, responsible for the most difficult direct attack. It was because of their long-term cooperation and relationship that Tina, who was quite famous and nicknamed "Black Widow", could not forget Xiao Zheng. Ever since he left without saying goodbye, Tina tortured the members of the team. Ma Choi Jun, who relied on his face to make a living, was still lying in the hospital.
"Okay!" Siyan lit a cigarette, took a sip of coke, and smiled meaningfully. "Boss, the woman you're looking for isn't simple."
"What's her background?" Xiao Zheng's interest was piqued as he asked.
"Shen Manjun, 28 years old, a native of Pearl City. Before the age of eighteen, he had been doing very well on the Pearl Road. People call her Big Sister. After she turned 18, she went to America alone and made a name for herself in New York's Chinatown. However, maybe it was because she wasn't acclimatized, she wasn't as famous in New York as Pearl City. Instead, she was successful in her studies and got a double master's degree. She's a genius in both literature and martial arts. " Siyan introduced Shen Manjun's background to Xiao Zheng while admiring the few pictures, clicking his tongue in wonder. "Such a beautiful woman in the underworld, it's such a waste."
"She's a mafia boss?" Xiao Zheng said in surprise.
"Not just a mafia boss, she's a mafia family. Boss, since you're from Pearl City, you should've heard of Zhao Siye, Zhao Long, right? "Siyan asked with interest.
"Of course, why? What's the relationship between them? "Xiao Zheng vaguely guessed something.
"Their relationship is not shallow." Siyan said mysteriously. "Your Zhao Siye should be Shen Manjun's father."
Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned as he couldn't connect Shen Manjun and Zhao Siye together. Everyone knew that Zhao Siye was the most powerful big brother in Pearl City. Even if Ye Shiguan's strength had soared and he was the leader of the younger generation, he was still too young to be compared to Zhao Siye who had been in Pearl City for nearly thirty years. It should be known that Zhao Siye was a super big shot in Pearl City. He was a big shot in both the underworld and the underworld. Not to mention that he was respected by everyone, even the business world and the government officials relied heavily on him. He was a true winner in life and could be called a heaven defying boss.
Shen Manjun was actually his daughter? Why different surnames? Could it be that Zhao Siye was a stage name? F * ck, a gangster gave himself a stage name, shameless!
However, Xiao Zheng really couldn't imagine Shen Manjun, who was on the same level as Lin Huayin, to be a big sister in the underworld. Too illusory!
"I couldn't find much information. Perhaps Mister Zhao did a good job in keeping it a secret. However, there's one thing I'm sure of. This woman is definitely a powerful character." Four-eyed hesitated for a moment before he said worriedly. "Boss, you didn't offend her, did you?"
"No." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "I'm just curious about her identity. Alright, there's nothing else. You can go do your thing. "
"Okay. Boss, if you have any trouble, you must tell us. Ma Choi Jun has been clamoring to come to Hua Xia to find you. "Siyan said.
"Help me tell Ma Choi Jun that if he still wants to leave the hospital, he should be smart." Xiao Zheng's face turned cold as he warned. "If Tina finds me, see how I'll deal with him!"
"Understood." Four-eyed shivered and hurriedly hung up the phone.
