Atypical crematorium of Lint's help and family owner

Chapter 11

On the morning of the third day of Li Zhenbai's business trip, Li Fangbing took Wu Xing home to live.

Steward Fang came over and asked Lin Zhen what to bring back for them: "In the past, the eldest lady came to live, and when she went back, the youngest asked to arrange some gifts to bring back. The uncle's parents are all there, so it looks better in face."

Lin Zhen asked, "What did you bring before?"

Steward Fang said, "Most of them are for food. Occasionally, they bring more expensive gifts during festivals."

Lin Zhenbai thought to himself that although Li Zhenbai has a strong desire to control, he is considerate to his family. He pondered for a while and said, "I remember that there is a century-old ginseng in the warehouse. Let's take it with me later. There is also a ginseng in the kitchen." The special food that was delivered was delivered in unopened boxes." He stood up and looked at the yard downstairs, "By the way, my eldest sister said that her father-in-law likes to play with orchids, so you ask the gardener to take care of the orchids in the garden. Dig a few of the orchids in the garden and bring them with you.”

Butler Fang agreed and went downstairs to make arrangements.

After sending Li Fangbing away, Lin Zhen went to work, and sent Li Zhengxiao to the apartment at night. Li Zhengxiao looked listless, and Lin Zhen advised him: "Your elder brother will come back tomorrow from a business trip. Today is the last night. I will think about it later." I don’t know when this opportunity will come.”

Hearing this, Li Zhengxiao glanced back at Lin Zhen, got out of the car almost in a fit of anger, and disappeared in no time.

Lin Zhen could see that he was unhappy, but he didn't bother to think about why, so he stepped on the gas pedal and went home without hesitation.

In the evening, Lin Shuo called him, and after he said a few words, Lin Zhen realized that something was wrong. After questioning him, Lin Shui told the truth.

"Brother, they found the last painting of your mother that you hid specially."

Lin Zhenxin thought: "Where's the painting?" He didn't manage the Li family, so he brought almost nothing with him except clothes, and now he only regrets it.

Lin Shui's voice was filled with tears: "They sold it."

Lin Zhen's eyes darkened, his chest heaved violently, and his voice became hoarse when he spoke: "Didn't you all give them money? Why do you still miss my mother's paintings?"

Lin Sui cried and said, "Brother said he wanted to invest in a resort with his friends, and the [-] million yuan was spent on the company's operations, and it wasn't enough for him."

Lying on the big bed, Lin Zhen no longer feels comfortable. Li Zhenbai will come back tomorrow, and the company may hold a meeting on Yunzhi's acquisition project. The workload will definitely be heavy. Lin Zhen knows that he must sleep well. He advises himself, In the future, when he has money, he can buy the painting back again, but the uncomfortable feeling in his heart can't disappear no matter what.

Until one o'clock in the morning, Lin Zhen was still tossing and turning on the bed, not sleeping, which made him feel hungry, let alone sleep.

He gave up, got up, put on his nightgown, and went downstairs to the kitchen to cook noodles for himself. When the noodles were cooked, Lin Zhen stared out the window in a daze, and suddenly wanted to smoke.

Lin Zhen learned to smoke while studying abroad, but he was not addicted to cigarettes. He only smoked one when he was bored.

None of the Li family members seem to have the habit of smoking. Lin Zhen rummaged through and found cigarettes in the coffee table drawer in the living room that were supposed to be for guests. There was a smell of smoke in the room, so I fastened my nightgown and went to the yard outside the door.

The cigarette was lit, and in the silent and cold night, he puffed away the clouds alone, staring at the villas in the distance in a daze.

There was a mechanical sound coming from the gate at the other end of the yard. Lin Zhenxin didn't hear anything, until the car drove up almost silently, and when the headlights shone on his face, he was relieved by the strong light.

Lin Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought of who might be in the car, and then realized that something was missing tonight, Li Zhenbai hadn't called him yet!

He was startled, and subconsciously wanted to hide the cigarette behind his back, but it was too late, the black car had already stopped in front of him, Wang Qin, director of the president's office, got out of the car, nodded to him as a greeting, and respectfully Opened the rear door.

Li Zhenbai, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, had a handsome face and meticulous hair, was sitting in the back seat. When the car door opened, he raised his head and looked over. His sharp eyes paused for a moment on the cigarette on Lin Zhen's finger.

He put one long leg on the ground, and at the same time fastened the buttons of the hem of his suit with both hands, got out of the car, walked up to Lin Zhen, and looked at him with a somewhat strange gaze.

Lin Zhen met his gaze stiffly, the cigarette in his hand was like a hot potato, he didn't want to throw it away, and it didn't matter if he didn't throw it away.

Like a calm and emotionless robot, Wang Qin turned a blind eye to everything that happened in front of him, silently unloaded the luggage from the car, carried them upstairs, said goodbye politely, and drove away quickly without caring about their reactions.

Lin Zhen heard that he has been working as the office director for many years, and his work ability is not top-notch, but he is strict and knows how to advance and retreat, so he is the most suitable for this position.Judging by today's posture, he deserves to be reused.

At one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, the eldest brother and his sister-in-law stood face to face in the yard, silent and eerie.

"Big...Brother," Lin Zhen broke the silence and said, "Why did you come back early?"

This sentence seemed to have broken a "speaking curse", Li Zhenbai raised his hand and rubbed his forehead: "I'm not used to living outside."

"Oh." Lin Zhen has been to Li Zhenbai's bedroom, but he has only sat in the living room outside, and has not seen what it looks like inside. The king's bed must be more comfortable and soft than Princess and Pea's. Without the king's body, he thought wryly.

Li Zhenbai's gaze shifted to Lin Zhen's hand again. Lin Zhen glanced along his line of sight and found that under tension, he was still maintaining the posture of putting one hand in his pocket and raising the other hand to hold the cigarette. It was burning fiercely, and the smoke rose mistyly, and was blown by the breeze... Li Zhenbai's cold and handsome face.

Lin Zhen backed away with his hand holding the cigarette, and only then did he realize that he should find an ashtray to put out the cigarette.

At this moment, his wrist was pinched by a scorching hand, and Lin Zhen trembled all over.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhenbai approached him, the familiar scent came over him, and his voice was low: "Do you know how to smoke?"

Lin Zhen felt a little hurt from being caught by him, but he didn't dare to pull his hand. He felt guilty. On the one hand, he felt that a stubborn and dull person like Li Zhenbai would not tolerate such bad habits in his family. Because just now, he suddenly thought that Li Zhengxiao was still outside.

If Li Zhenbai went to their room at this time and discovered their tricks, Li Zhengxiao might not be able to do anything, but he would definitely not be let off easily.

Lin Zhen explained in a trembling voice: "Only once in a while."

Li Zhenbai looked up at him: "Bring me one."

"Ah?" Lin Zhen was stunned for a moment, but didn't react.

Li Zhenbai frowned slightly, and repeated: "I want to smoke, get me one."

Lin Zhen said "oh", and hurriedly turned around to go back to the room to get it, but Li Zhenbai pinched his wrist and was almost dragged all of a sudden. He turned around to look, and saw Li Zhenbai pulling away his hand with a burning flame in his hand. Cigarette: "Don't bring the smell of smoke in."

Lin Zhen said "Oh" again, this time his wrist was finally loosened, he thought to himself when he turned around and entered the room, he seemed to smell a faint smell of alcohol on Li Zhenbai's body.

Is he drunk again?

Lin Zhen hurriedly went to find the cigarette case under the coffee table in the living room, and took the opportunity to quickly send a message to Li Zhengxiao: "Brother has returned, come back quickly, wait for my arrangements outside the gate."

Putting away his mobile phone, Lin Zhen went out to the yard, and was about to hand over the cigarette in his hand, when Li Zhenbai had already smoked it. In the quiet night, this tall and straight man was wearing a well-fitting suit, standing in the yard with his back to him , looking at the dark sky in the distance while exhaling smoke.

Lin Zhen paused, his expression stiff, because he found that what Li Zhenbai had in his mouth was exactly the cigarette he had just smoked.
