Don't think that she forgot that there was still a pot of water in the bedroom.
"What's that sound? Why is there a man? What kind of shady things did you do outside? "Lin Zhenghe asked.
Lin Chu's face turned red. Lin Zhenghe's voice was loud, and her phone was leaky. If she used a normal voice, the people next to her could hear it, not to mention Lin Zhenghe's loud voice.
Sure enough, Yan Beicheng, who was pretending to fetch the water, glanced at her. Lin Chu was very embarrassed. She turned her back to him and said, "It's a colleague."
"You were just fired by the company. Where did you get a job and a colleague!" Lin Zhenghe reprimanded, "Lin Chu, don't play tricks with me. Do you think you can fool me with your own rotten private life? Your tricks are useless against me. "
Lin Chu's breath was stuck in her chest. She was too lazy to argue with Lin Zhenghe about whether she was fired or resigned. Anyway, Lin Zhenghe was unreasonable and believed that whatever she did was despicable. He didn't listen to or believe her words at all. He only felt that his thoughts were right. Even if she didn't do anything, she was still wrong in his eyes.
"Can't I find another job if I resign? A friend introduced me to a company, "Lin Chu said coldly.
Lin Zhenghe snorted mockingly on the phone, obviously not believing her. "Then tell me, which company are you at? Maybe I know the boss and can take care of you."
Lin Chu laughed mockingly. Lin Zhenghe thought that she was treating him like a fool, but obviously he was the one treating her like a fool. If he could really take care of her, he would directly arrange for her to enter Lin Mao. Even if she didn't become a leader as soon as she entered like Lin Yuwen, it would be good to let her be an ordinary employee who could do her job.
Even if Lin Zhenghe mentioned it, Lin Chu wouldn't agree. What she wanted to do was to leave the Lin family, and it was even more impossible for her to enter Lin Mao and let the Lin family monitor her everywhere.
And she also knew that Lin Zhenghe would never let her enter Lin Mao. He wouldn't give her an important position, and he wouldn't let her be an ordinary employee. In the eyes of the Lin family, she wasn't a member of the Lin family. She didn't deserve to sit in a high position in Lin Mao, and she couldn't get their trust.
But if she was only an ordinary employee, outsiders would point out that the Lin family could not tolerate an adopted daughter like her. The Lin family had always created an image of kindness, love, and charity. They liked to use her, their adopted daughter, to improve their image. They would never give outsiders a chance to guide them. Therefore, he did not allow her to enter Lin Mao.
Lin Chu also knew this, so he never mentioned it. After graduation, he came out to find a job himself. He didn't ask Lin Zhenghe for help, and Lin Zhenghe wouldn't help him.
In this way, the Lin family could say that she, as an adopted daughter, had her own ideas and wanted to make a career on her own. She didn't want to rely on the family. The Lin family supported her decision and received applause.
Lin Zhenghe had said that he would take care of her. If he wanted to take care of her, he would have taken care of her when she was in Jingwen. Then, she wouldn't have been bullied by You Weiwen and eventually resigned.
Jing Wen couldn't compare to Lin Mao. To Jing Wen, Lin Mao was a huge monster. Jing Wen couldn't afford to offend him. As long as Lin Zhenghe said the word, Jing Wen would have to be careful.
"Uncle Lin, why are you looking for me?" Lin Chu asked.
When she was seven years old, she came to the Lin family for the first time. When Lin Zhenghe woke up, she tried to call him daddy. She wanted to integrate into the family.
But Su Changxin happened to hear her calling him daddy for the first time in her life. At that time, Su Changxin slapped her on the head without hesitation. She still remembered the pain. Her vision suddenly turned black and she couldn't see anything. At that time, she was scared that she was going to lose her sight. Fortunately, the darkness slowly receded and her vision recovered. But her face was still pale.
She still remembered Su Changxin's hysterical scream. "Who allowed you to call me daddy? We only have one daughter, Yuwen. Don't think about replacing Yuwen! We are not your parents. Listen carefully, don't try to climb up the social ladder! Don't let me hear you call us mom and dad again! "
At that time, Su Changxin pointed at her forehead. He wanted to poke her, but he didn't want to because it would dirty his finger.
Since then, Lin Chu never called them mom and dad again.
Lin Chu thought more than once that she would rather stay in the orphanage. Maybe she didn't eat well or dress well. Sometimes, she quarreled with the other children, but they always made up after the quarrel. They were all friends who played together. No one looked down on each other. Some teachers would favor a child, but they wouldn't beat or scold them like Su Changxin and Lin Zhenghe.
She also had a loving principal who treated them well. She always wanted them to have a real home. So on the day she left the orphanage, the principal cried. She was happy that Lin Chu found a home. Moreover, that home was very good. She hoped that Lin Chu could be happy.
She also had a little brother whose name she didn't know. Every weekend, he would climb over the wall to visit her under the old locust tree. But she didn't know that she was suddenly taken away by the Lin family. She didn't have time to tell her little brother. Would he look for her when he didn't see her?
Lin Zhenghe paused on the phone. He didn't continue to insist on Lin Chu's work. Instead, he said, "Come back tomorrow. Old Madam says she misses you."
Old Madam Lin …
Lin Chu was stunned. That was the only person in the Lin family who treated her well. Maybe not as well as Lin Yuwen, but Lin Yuwen was her granddaughter after all. Lin Chu never felt that she should be treated equally with Lin Yuwen. After all, things like blood relations were human nature.
But Old Madam Lin still treated her well. When Su Changxin hit her, Old Madam Lin would get medicine for her and take her to the hospital.
"Okay." Lin Chu glanced at Yan Beicheng, who was still fetching water, and walked out of the kitchen.
Yan Beicheng turned off the faucet and followed behind her.
Lin Chu was speechless.
"You don't have to come to the Lin family. Meet me at Sheng Yue," Lin Zhenghe said.
Lin Chu frowned but still said, "Okay."
Lin Zhenghe didn't even say goodbye. He hung up.
Lin Chu stared blankly at his phone for a few seconds. He put away his phone and turned around, almost bumping into Yan Beicheng, who was behind him.
Seeing that the water in his hand was still half full, she thought that Yan Beicheng had tried his best.
But this man looked calm, as if he was just going back to his room with the glass of water.
Lin Chu was just about to open her mouth and expose his blatant eavesdropping when she saw Yan Beicheng nod at her reservedly. He carried the half-full cup upstairs as if he was really here to fetch water.
Lin Chu was speechless.
She went back to the kitchen speechlessly to prepare dinner. Although Yan Beicheng had a fever and could only eat porridge, he probably didn't have much appetite. She prepared porridge and side dishes. But there was still Yan Ningbai. Yan Ningbai couldn't just eat porridge with Yan Beicheng.
Lin Chu went to the fridge and found that there were a lot of ingredients, so he made egg rice for Yan Ningbai. He also took out the lamb chops to thaw and made roasted lamb chops for him to eat. He also made a vegetable salad and fruit salad. He used corn kernels, cucumbers, carrots, red peppers, and honey to stir-fry the carrots and red peppers. After being processed, the taste of the carrots and red peppers, which were generally not liked by children, was reduced to the lightest.
When dinner was almost ready, Lin Chu called Yan Ningbai out for dinner and went to Yan Beicheng's bedroom. When she opened the door, she was stunned.
Yan Beicheng didn't know when he fell asleep. He was lying quietly on the bed, sleeping very soundly.
He must have played with his phone for a while before he slept. The phone was still lying on his left palm. His left hand was lazily lying on the bed, and his five slender fingers were slightly bent. His other hand was on the blanket on his abdomen, and his head was slightly tilted. His sleeping peacefully made him look especially beautiful.
Lin Chu's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She walked to the side of the bed and saw his long eyelashes casting a thin fan-shaped shadow on his eyelids through the red afterglow of the setting sun.
