Continue to fall

Places like nightclubs are prone to filth, and it is not surprising that the police make surprise inspections every now and then.

What is strange to everyone is that the major inspection was done yesterday, why did it happen again today?

Zhong Lin quickly gave them the answer: "Don't come down, I'll go down and explain."

Zou Huasheng was surprised, and Zhou Yijin and Yan Zhengming were also a little surprised. They had the impression that Zhong Lin was not a friend of the police.

Standing upstairs, Zou Huasheng watched Zhong Lin talking to a middle-aged policeman downstairs, and couldn't help sighing to Yan Zhengming: "Your family Zhong Lin is very good, I didn't see him call the police, so I sent the police to you without saying anything." It's been recruited. Judging from the situation, if we hadn't come, Ji Mingkai's fate would have been even worse, he deserved your kick."

Yan Zhengming didn't return him, but just stared at Zhong Lin with deep eyes.

He hadn't figured out Zhong Lin's social circle before, and even less so now.

But they all misunderstood that Dui Liu and Zhong Lin were not friends. Zhong Lin knew him because Dui Liu was in the police when his father died. Later, by coincidence, Dui Liu taught his daughter, so he had him. WeChat and phone calls.

And he sent the "help" message, if it were anyone else, it would be impossible for Team Liu to ignore it.

Because of that message, Zhong Lin explained it to people for a long time, and when he came up again, everyone looked at him differently.

He didn't have anything to explain to others, so he just said to Zou Huasheng: "I have already explained clearly to the police that Ji Mingkai will be fine tonight, but please go back and tell him not to recruit me in the future. The police are just a case at this moment." Do the inspection, and you will leave after the inspection, don't worry."

Zou Huasheng felt even more apologetic when he heard him say this: "Ji Mingkai committed the crime tonight, and it was still in my place. I'm so sorry. I will definitely let his brother take care of him later!"

Yu Bi said again: "Let's go, let's change places, and I will be the host to calm you down."

Zhong Lin declined, "Ah Jin and I have to go to work tomorrow, you go, we'll go back first."

He didn't stay, Yan Zhengming also said he wanted to leave: "I'll be with you."

"Don't worry, I've asked someone to prepare everything, and Jiang Lian is waiting up there." Zou Huasheng deliberately dissatisfied Yan Zhengming, "You left in a hurry back then, but now you come back quietly, and I will invite you back No time, why, I can't invite you now, can I?"

"No, the two of them drank, and Zhong Lin was injured, I'm worried." Yan Zhengming softened his tone cooperatively, "I'll invite you some other day, will it work?"

Zou Huasheng ignored him directly, and turned to Zhong Lin: "Zhong Lin, please persuade him. There are no outsiders. It's just us. You know Jiang Lian. This guy has been back to China for half a month, and every time he does it He said he was busy, he just said it on the phone, now that you're leaving, he won't stay, is there anyone like him who values ​​sex over friends!"

Embarrassed and perplexed, Zhong Lin glanced at Yan Zhengming and persuaded him, "It's rare for you guys to get together, so you should stay."

"Are you going to do it with me?" Yan Zhengming had hope in his eyes, "Go up and say hello to Jiang Lian, if you feel uncomfortable, I'll send you back."

Zhong Lin knew how stubborn and depressed he was, but he would not get angry with Yan Zhengming in front of outsiders. He glanced at Zhou Yijin in embarrassment, got an encouraging look from the other party, heaved a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment before saying: "Then let's go up and say hello to Jiang Lian. We have to go to work tomorrow, so we won't be able to stay for long."

He had a good impression of Zou Huasheng and Jiang Lian. Since they met, they were kindly invited, so it didn't matter if they went to say hello.

He was just afraid that Zhou Yijin would be uncomfortable, but after thinking about it, Zhou Yijin likes to come here to play, and it is not a bad thing to introduce him to the boss here, and Zhou Yijin is more outgoing and lively than him, and he is more slick in dealing with people than him in terms of socializing .

Zou Huasheng took them to an entertainment suite on the eighteenth floor by elevator.

Another good brother and partner of Yan Zhengming, Jiang Lian, just arrived not long ago, and was on the phone at the moment. Seeing them coming in, he said a few words to the other side, hung up the phone in a hurry, and came to greet them.

Only Zhou Yijin was a stranger at the scene. After greeting Zhong Lin, he introduced to him: "This is my friend Zhou Yijin."

"Hello, Jiang Lian."

Jiang Lian's temperament is not as wild and flamboyant as Yan Zhengming's. He is handsome and aggressive, and he is not as smiling as Zou Huasheng. He has a refined and refined elite temperament, but Yan Zhengming said that among the three of them, Jiang Lian has the most connections and the most sensitive mind.

Looking at each other, Jiang Lian looked at Zhou Yijin with a hint of surprise and interest.

Having been in business for so many years, Zhou Yijin is also very good at judging people, knowing that these few are not good, but they are Yan Zhengming's friends, so naturally they wouldn't do anything to him, so he shook hands politely.

Jiang Lian looked away and asked, "Will you drink tea or drink?"

Zou Huasheng took the lead: "What kind of tea do you drink at a young age, and you won't be able to sleep the next night, so it's natural to drink! The food will come right away, sit first."

As soon as everyone took their seats, two waiters came in pushing carts.

Zou Huasheng prepared a sumptuous supper for them, mainly seafood.

Zhong Lin and Zhou Yijin ate seafood for dinner, and it was only over an hour later, and they were still not hungry, and they didn't move their chopsticks much during the whole process.

Yan Zhengming was fined by Zou Huasheng for three glasses of wine as soon as he sat down because he repeatedly missed appointments.

He had dinner with the boss of a certain new energy vehicle company. The other party was an elder, and he could drink a lot. Before coming here, he drank a lot of red wine. Now that he had a few glasses of white wine, his stomach suddenly felt a little hot, and he begged for mercy. : "Let me eat a few mouthfuls of food, or I will have to go out sideways if I have a few more drinks."

"Pretend less, you are the best drinker among this group of people, and you want to send us away after a few drinks. It's a good idea." Zou Huasheng said and filled him up again.

"I know that your wine doesn't cost money, but my stomach is not an iron wall, at least let me take a break, brother."

Jiang Lian glanced at Zhong Lin indiscriminately, and said to Zou Huasheng with a smile, "You're almost done. If you really get him drunk, I can't handle him because he's so big."

"Sleep when you're drunk, I have plenty of rooms here. Besides, with Zhong Lin here, what's the matter with you, don't be too sentimental."

"Too."

The two of them sang together, not sure if they were trying to test Zhong Lin on purpose or if they really didn't know the inside story.

Zhong Lin hasn't seen them for several years, and they are Yan Zhengming's friends, Yan Zhengming didn't say a word at this moment, and it's impossible for him to jump out and say: We have broken up.

But is the truth really that hard to guess?

Even if Yan Zhengming didn't tell them, how could they not see the awkwardness and estrangement between the two of them at a glance.

It's just pretending to be confused.

Although Zhong Lin knew that they would not hurt him, he couldn't figure out what they wanted to do.

The party ended with Yan Zhengming getting very drunk.

Zhong Lin has seen him in all kinds of states after drinking. When he is half drunk, he has a lot of flirtatious operations and can be tossed, just like last night; when he is really drunk, he is very quiet and likes to pretend to be deep, like now.

Zou Huasheng arranged a suite for them and wanted to keep them overnight, but Zhong Lin refused to stay with the excuse that he hadn't changed his clothes.

When Yan Zhengming heard that Zhong Lin was going to leave, he immediately quit and insisted on sending them back.

Zhong Lin couldn't get angry in front of everyone, so he said helplessly, "You're so drunk, how can I send you off?"

"There is a driver."

"It's so late, we have to go back after you deliver it, which is a waste of time." Zhong Lin persuaded, "I can just take a taxi with Ah Jin."

"Don't bother." Yan Zhengming looked at Zhou Yijin in his arms, his eyes were dark and unclear, "He is also drunk, you can't handle it later."

Zhong Lin really didn't know what he was worried about.

Zou Huasheng and Jiang Lian chose to close their eyes and listen with a tacit understanding at the moment, and let them discuss by themselves.

What can be the result of negotiating with a drunkard who only accepts death?

At 11:30 in the evening, Zhong Lin helped the unconscious Zhou Yijin into Yan Zhengming's car, and Jiang Lian helped Yan Zhengming into the co-pilot.

Zhong Lin turned to say goodbye to him.

But Jiang Lian stopped him: "Zhong Lin, can I have a chat with you?"

Zhong Lin paused and closed the car door: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Lian opened his mouth after deliberation: "I know that I may be a little nosy, after all, emotional matters are like drinking water, and I know myself. As a bystander, I have no room to comment, but Zheng Ming is my brother, I... ..."

Jiang Lian and Zhong Lin were just casual acquaintances before, and they hadn't seen each other for many years, and they were about to intervene in other people's relationship issues, and it was still a bit difficult to talk about it.

Embarrassed, he pondered for a moment before continuing: "It's really not easy for him to be abroad alone these past few years. You should know something about their family situation. Auntie doesn't care much about people, and Uncle Yan is also special. Eccentric, it was fine when you were here before, but in the past few years when you were not here, I feel that he is very gloomy and sharp. Sometimes I am afraid that he will destroy himself, but he can adjust himself every time, saying that he is not reconciled ..."

Zhong Lin remained silent.

He knew that Jiang Lian was here to be a lobbyist.

He wasn't disgusted, but he really didn't know how to answer the conversation.

Because he himself is in a mess.

"I only found out about the two of you later. I know that he used to have a bad temper and willful impulsiveness, but he never had any second thoughts about you." Seeing that Zhong Lin was silent, Jiang Lian's tone became more cautious, "A few years ago He may not have been able to take up that responsibility before, but he may not be able to take it now, if possible, can you...give him another chance? Of course you can also test him, he really likes you. "

Zhong Lin said, "I never doubted Yan Zhengming's sincerity."

When they separated in the first place, it was not because of a broken relationship, but because of reality, because of those irreconcilable contradictions in personality.

These contradictions still exist today.

Zhong Lin couldn't analyze his heart to Jiang Lian, but said to him very sincerely: "Thank you, Jiang Lian."

"Don't say that, in fact, I have to apologize to you." Jiang Lian clasped his hands and explained, "I saw that he was not in the right state a while ago, and he was very hostile, so I couldn't hold back and told him He revealed some of your situation. I'm sorry Zhong Lin, I didn't mean to pry into your privacy, but I was just afraid that he would lose control, so..."

"It's okay." Zhong Lin interrupted him, "He told me, he found someone to check me, I reckon you should find someone for him. I don't have any shady secrets, it doesn't matter."

Seeing that his expression was calm, Jiang Lian was slightly relieved, and his tone was a little emotional: "I have known him for so many years, and I have never seen him care so much about anyone or anything, and he has so much family property. He doesn't care at all, but he refuses to let go of you. We have persuaded him, but he can't listen to it. He is like a demon. I don't know if I'm helping him or hurting you, but I know that no matter how generous he is, he won't hurt you, and I really hope that you can all be happier."

Zhong Lin felt turmoil in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He only complimented: "Yan Zhengming is lucky to know you and become a brother with you."

Jiang Lian was flattered: "You are flattering me a bit."

The two exchanged some polite words, Zhong Lin said goodbye to Jiang Lian and returned to the car, Zhou Yijin and Yan Zhengming seemed to have fallen asleep, and the car was very quiet.

Zhong Lin suppressed his voice and gave the driver an address, asking him to take Zhou Yijin first.

Zhou Yijin rented an apartment outside. When he arrived, Zhong Lin and the driver worked together to get him back home.

It was too late, and Zhong Lin didn't stay long after setting him up a few times, and it was past 12 o'clock when he returned to the factory.

After explaining to the driver in a low voice, he opened the door and got out of the car. Yan Zhengming, the co-pilot, woke up at some point and got out of the car too.

Seeing that he was staggering and planning to follow her back to the dormitory, Zhong Lin took a breath and said in a low voice, "What are you following me for? I'm going back, so you should go back to sleep quickly."

"I want to sleep with you." No matter how drunk Yan Zhengming was, he never forgot his ultimate goal.

The veins on Zhong Lin's forehead were throbbing. According to past experience, it would be more exciting for him to shake his face at this moment, so he coaxed him: "My bed is too small for two people to sleep, and I don't have your clothes in there." clothes, you go back, okay?"

"I can be naked and not be cold."

"..."

Well, this is not a question of whether it will be cold or not, okay!

"You promised to respect me, are you going to break your promise?" Zhong Lin realized that coaxing was useless, so he had to use his trump card.

His "threat" seemed to have really worked, Yan Zhengming frowned, looking serious.

Taking advantage of his trance, Zhong Lin opened the car door and pushed the man back in, and told the driver, "Lock the car door quickly, and send him home quickly!"

After speaking, he turned around and left without looking back.

After going up to the third floor, he heard the sound of the car engine starting downstairs. He leaned on the railing and looked down to confirm that the car had really left. Only then did he relax completely.

After returning, he rested on the sofa for a while, wanting to take a shower and go to sleep, but then remembered that he didn't mop the floor last night.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder attack, had to get up to mop the floor.

Before he took out the mop and started mopping, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Zhong Lin's heart skipped a beat, with a bad premonition.

"Who is it?" The door of the dormitory is an old-fashioned wooden door without peepholes, so he can't see who is outside.

The man didn't answer him, just kept knocking on the door.

They live in this dormitory for office workers. There are eight rooms on the third floor, all of which are single dormitories for department heads.

The person next door is Manager Zhao, the gossip king of the company.

Afraid that he would wake Manager Zhao next door, Zhong Lin gritted his teeth and opened the door.

As expected, there was a drunken Yan Zhengming outside the door.

He drove the driver away, but he didn't leave. He staggered up to the third floor and found Zhong Lin's room with precision!

After seeing Zhong Lin open the door, the guy was aggrieved: "Zhong Lin, I still want to sleep with you."

Zhong Lin wanted to bite him to death: "Sleep with you!"
