Lin Qian felt that Li Zhicheng had used a very smart way to bring their relationship to a new stage.
They were like friends, but full of unlimited possibilities.
And instead of chasing after her, he wanted her to slowly accept him.
Of course, his purpose was still clear. But after one night, the seed that had been buried in her heart for a long time seemed to have sprouted. At least she accepted his point of view.
She should get to know more about him.
Don't be hasty to give in, don't be wise to protect yourself. Don't miss out on a smart and outstanding man like him.
I can't control my feelings, I can't do without you. Spring and autumn come and go, but only this one person can make you fall for him without hesitation.
So at this moment, Lin Qian sat in the back of the taxi, looking at the glass-like lights outside the window, feeling the cold aura of the man beside her. She was no longer flustered, but happy and sweet.
She didn't need to talk. Tonight was so beautiful.
And Li Zhicheng was sweating all over. His muscles and bones, which had been sitting in the office for too long, were finally moving. And it was a woman who was moving with him. So at this moment, from body to mind, he was very relaxed and relaxed.
He quietly looked at the side of the woman's peaceful face. That pair of intelligent eyes were sparkling, which meant that she was thinking about something, and she was still enjoying it.
Li Zhicheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
Lin Qian, the kiss on the rock wall that you had to do, but didn't do it, for now, remember for us.
He had to be patient and slowly plan for it.
The strong desire at that moment, when you let down your guard, when you are willing, I will return it.
At this time, the taxi stopped in front of the row of beautiful apartments.
Lin Qian spoke briefly with the driver in English, paid and got the change. Li Zhicheng looked up and saw the dim light in front of the window on the second floor of the apartment. A tall man stood in front of the window, looking downstairs, as if he was examining or thinking.
From the outside, Lin Mochen's apartment looked white and elegant, in line with his arrogant personality.
Outside the apartment, there was a row of cute yellow fences, in the middle were some flowers and plants that Lin Qian had planted one year ago.
At this moment, Lin Qian was standing next to the fences, smiling at Li Zhicheng, "Then good night. You … hurry back to the hotel. "
She didn't know why, but after playing all night, she couldn't bring herself to call him "GM Li." But calling him "Zhicheng" was too scary. Therefore, Lin Qian kept saying "you" and "you" all the way.
Li Zhicheng stood in the night, his black coat and hair still slightly wet. He nodded with a faint smile in his eyes. "Good night."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft click from the door of the apartment. The light at the entrance was switched on, and someone pushed the door open and walked out.
Li Zhicheng looked up calmly.
And Lin Qian's reaction was …
He immediately closed the fence behind him and calmly walked to the door. "Brother, I'm back. Happy New Year!"
Lin Mochen was wearing a light gray sweater and black trousers. He looked like a Wall Street elite at home, leisurely and noble. He glanced at his sister, who was trying in vain to pretend that everything was peaceful and easily brushed past him. Then, he glanced at the handsome man who was standing outside the fence and nodding at him politely …
They came pretty quickly.
After pondering for a while, he said in a low voice, "A friend has come from afar. Would you like to come in and have a seat?"
Lin Qian, who had just walked in, suddenly froze.
She heard Li Zhicheng calmly reply from outside the door, "Mr. Lin, you're too kind. Then I'll do as you say. "
Lin Qian was speechless. Why are you doing as you say?!
As soon as she turned around, she saw Lin Mochen had already turned around and walked in. Li Zhicheng followed closely behind and also stepped into the entrance. The two men were both tall and handsome, and they both had a calm expression on their faces …
It was one o 'clock at midnight on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Lin Mochen's house was brightly lit, and the fragrance of tea wafted in the air.
Lin Qian looked at the two men sitting on the sofa and thought it was really as she said. Her brother's nightlife had become more colorful … He didn't sleep during the Lunar New Year, so he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. He was interrogating his "imaginary enemy" overnight.
Although she thought so, she really invited them in. She couldn't avoid it, so Lin Qian calmed down. She brought over the freshly brewed tea and put it in front of the two men. Then she sat down and said, "Then let me introduce you. Brother, this is Li Zhicheng from Aida. Mr. Li, this is my brother, Lin Mochen. He's a senior partner of MK Investment Company. "
She was about to continue when she saw Lin Mochen looking up at her with a distant expression, "It's late. Go upstairs to shower and go to bed. I'll talk to Mr. Li in the study. "
Lin Qian replied with a smile, "How can I do that? Brother, he's my guest. How can I leave him and go to bed? "
Lin Mochen narrowed his eyes and was about to speak when Li Zhicheng, who had been sitting calmly on the side, said, "Go to bed."
His words were directed at Lin Qian. His deep voice contained a hint of a smile.
Lin Qian was stunned and looked at him.
Their eyes met in the air. Lin Qian saw the calmness and certainty in his dark eyes.
Lin Qian was silent for a moment and stood up, "Alright, I'll do as you say. But don't stay up too late. Go to bed early. "Then she went upstairs. When she stepped on the second floor, she couldn't help but look back. She saw the two men looking up at her with burning eyes.
What the hell! Why are they so in sync?
The moment she closed the door, she heard Li Zhicheng's voice, which was neither humble nor pushy, "Mr. Lin, I've always wanted to thank you in person for your help with the Ming Sheng project. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare a gift. I'll pay you a visit another day. "
Lin Mochen invited Li Zhicheng to the study for a detailed discussion.
They sat by the small tea table. Outside the window was the balcony. The night was dark and the fragrance of flowers wafted through the air.
Most capable people in the business world were full of energy. So were these two. Although it was late at night, they didn't look tired at all. Their expressions were clear and bright.
Li Zhicheng was the guest. He sat still and waited for Lin Mochen to speak.
Lin Mochen remembered that his sister had resisted his order to go to bed, but after making eye contact with this man, she listened to him and went back to her room.
Ha …
He sneered in his heart and looked at Li Zhicheng calmly. "Mr. Li, I heard that you're pursuing my sister."
Li Zhicheng looked at him and nodded with a faint smile. "Yes. Looks like she mentioned it to you. "
Lin Mochen picked up his tea and took a sip. He put it down gently and looked up.
"What right do you have?" His tone was cold.
When he asked this, he looked at Li Zhicheng with his long, indifferent eyes. If someone who had worked with him before saw his eyes, they would know that this handsome and well-dressed man was about to have some kind of cruel thoughts.
But Li Zhicheng's expression didn't change at all when he heard this sudden and aggressive question. He didn't answer but asked, "What right do I have?"
Lin Mochen leaned back on the black velvet sofa, his expression indifferent.
"According to Aida's current assets and liabilities, even if the Vinda brand has amazing sales, you, Li Zhicheng, are worth no more than 300 million." He looked at him indifferently. "There are many men around me who are worth many times more than you. Besides, your company has just escaped death. You and I both know that Aida will once again be shut down by our competitors next year at the latest. Since you are in danger, why should I trust you with my sister? "
Li Zhicheng looked at him quietly.
After a while, he lowered his head slightly and picked up the teapot beside him. He filled Lin Mochen's cup and poured a cup for himself.
Then he picked up his teacup and took a sip. "Running water doesn't rot, and household hubs don't rot. A net worth of 300 million is indeed too low for the Lin siblings. But this is just the current situation, not next year, not the year after. It's not the future I want to spend with Lin Qian. "
Lin Mochen raised his eyebrows and looked at him quietly.
Li Zhicheng put down his teacup and looked up at him with his dark eyes. He said softly, "Mr. Lin, are you willing to make a gentleman's agreement with me?" After a slight pause, he said, "If I can give her a worry-free future, please trust me with her."
Lin Qian lay on the bed.
It was snowing outside the window. It was quiet downstairs.
The hour hand was pointing at two o 'clock. They had been chatting in the study for a whole hour.
As the saying goes, killing someone is just a matter of nodding to the ground. Both of them were not talkative men. Lin Qian was surprised that they could talk for so long.
But on second thought, it was a great thing. Lin Mochen had always been disdainful of dealing with people who couldn't bring him benefits and he didn't like them. In the past, there were many times when people came to visit, but they were sent away within a quarter of an hour. This could only mean … could it be that my brother likes Li Zhicheng?
Oh right, aren't wolves always united and appreciative of each other?
Now she was more curious than worried. She really wanted to know what they were talking about. Besides, it's good to let my brother vet Li Zhicheng. Anyway, he will pass this test sooner or later …
Uh, isn't this what Li Zhicheng said?
Lin Qian reached out and touched her nose.
Tsk tsk, "girls are attracted to their husbands."
At this moment, footsteps, the sound of the door opening, and the vague sound of someone talking came from downstairs.
Lin Qian jumped up from the bed.
The door opened a gap without a sound.
She saw the living room was brightly lit. Two shadows were reflected in the hallway. Has Li Zhicheng been sent out?
Lin Qian ran to the window again. Sure enough, she saw Li Zhicheng walking out from the row of small fences. His hands were in his trouser pockets, the collar of his jacket standing up. His steps were steady, and his handsome face was as indifferent as ever.
Go …
Lin Qian pinched the corner of the curtain. She took a deep breath and then exhaled.
I almost forgot that facial paralysis is facial paralysis. You can't tell from his face how the conversation went.
At this moment, Li Zhicheng seemed to notice her presence downstairs. He suddenly looked up. In a flash, his eyes were like lightning.
Lin Qian subconsciously dodged to the side to avoid his gaze.
Perhaps it was because his actions were too swift and violent, causing her heart to beat rapidly.
But in her heart, she thought, Hmm, good move. Didn't I want to take things step by step? If I act too proactive, he will see through me in the blink of an eye.
When she heard the footsteps getting further away, she secretly turned her head and looked outside again …
"Haven't seen enough?"
A rather cold voice came from behind.
Lin Qian immediately turned around and smiled sweetly at him. Sure enough, she saw Lin Mochen leaning against the door with his arms crossed, looking at her with his slender and arrogant eyes.
"I'm really not close with him. We're just ordinary friends. Why are you doing this? "Lin Qian walked over and held his arm.
Lin Mochen looked at her and didn't say anything.
Lin Qian asked again, "What did you guys talk about? You talked for so long. "
Lin Mochen chuckled and pulled his arm out of her hand.
"Don't worry. He won't do anything to you in the short term."
Lin Qian blinked.
Lin Qian lay back on the bed and stared at the ceiling.
Sigh. After saying that profound sentence, Lin Mochen's face darkened and he ordered her to go to sleep. It seemed that he didn't want to tell her the inside story.
And if he didn't want to say it, no one could force him to say it. Of course, Lin Qian couldn't either.
At this time, her phone rang. She received a text message.
It's already so late … Lin Qian felt refreshed. She took it and looked at it. It was indeed Li Zhicheng.
"I'm at the hotel. Good night. "
Lin Qian replied immediately, "Okay. Also, why did you talk with my brother for so long? "
Li Zhicheng replied quickly, "Don't worry, I can handle him."
Lin Qian looked at the simple words, her cheeks slightly hot.
This tone …
But she really wasn't worried about him. She was just curious.
Lin Qian threw her phone aside.
What's going on? He told her not to worry, and he also told her not to worry. But they didn't mention the content of the conversation.
They talked back and forth and threw her aside. Humph …
After a while, she thought of tonight, under the snowflakes, Li Zhicheng whispered in her ear, "Every year will have this day, every year will have this day."
The ambiguity and blush had long since faded. At this moment, an unusually soft and touching emotion welled up in her heart.
Then she suddenly thought of her brother.
It seemed that he hadn't been sleeping well for the past few years. Now it was past bedtime. It must be difficult for him to fall asleep.
She got up and went downstairs. Sure enough, she saw Lin Mochen leaning on the lounge chair in the reception room with a cup of hot tea in his hand. He was looking at the snow outside the window, thinking about something.
Lin Qian felt a slight pain in her heart, but her movements were extremely light. She walked to the sofa beside him and sat down, hugging his arm, "Brother, I haven't said my New Year's wishes to you."
Lin Mochen smiled and turned to look at her.
Lin Qian leaned on his shoulder and said, "I hope that we, as a family, will have this day every year, and every year will have this day."
Night fell.
The siblings didn't sleep, watching the rerun of the Spring Festival Gala on TV. Lin Qian shook her head and sighed as she watched, nitpicking in every way possible. Lin Mochen watched the long-awaited crosstalk, skit, and China acrobatics, his mind seemed to have floated beyond Mount Jiufeng.
Finally, his gaze fell on his sister again.
Lin Qian had said that Li Zhicheng and he were the same kind of person.
What he saw today was indeed a match.
But they were also different.
In fact, in Li Zhicheng, he saw something similar to Lin Qian.
Under the scheming appearance, this man still retained the same sincerity and determination as Lin Qian.
And this kind of thing … Lin Mochen laughed silently. He no longer had it.
As for the agreement they had reached tonight, they both had a tacit understanding not to let Lin Qian know.
If he, Li Zhicheng, was capable and sincere, he would naturally let him pursue his sister.
But if either one of them was lacking, he would go bankrupt, lose his reputation, and have no one to blame.
The next day, Lin Qian woke up at noon and saw the text message sent by Li Zhicheng early in the morning.
It was very short: "Something happened at the company, I have already taken the earliest flight to leave. See you back in China. "
This surprised Lin Qian. Later, she learned from Jiang Yuan that it was Ming Sheng's Mr. Kang who introduced Li Zhicheng to another CEO of a state-owned enterprise, intending to let Aida provide the order. That CEO happened to return to Lin City to visit his family, which was why this sudden development happened.
On the first day of work after the Spring Festival, Lin Qian returned on time.
And all the industry giants, including New Bori, SMQ, and Aida, had also started their business and plans for the new year.
And, new competition.
