Chapter 21
Chapter 21
After clarifying the marriage with Xiao Yan, Lin Leyao left the conference room.
As soon as he went out, he saw Mao Xinxin walking towards him wearing sunglasses.
In the past, every time this person saw him, he would definitely say something bitter, but this time when he saw him appear, Mao Xinxin did not show any emotion uncharacteristically.
The distance between the two was getting closer and closer. When passing by Lin Leyao, Mao Xinxin twisted her body and walked sideways, pretending not to see the person beside her.
Lin Leyao blinked her eyes and slowly came to her senses.
Such a big change in Mao Xinxin is probably due to the influence of Xin Sinan coming to greet him during the last meal.
Not paying attention to this matter anymore, Lin Leyao left the company.
Back at the apartment, Lin Leyao changed out of the high heels she had worn all day, pulled on her slippers, and walked to the cat litter specially prepared for YOYO.
Sensing someone around him, YOYO opened his round eyes and took a look, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After returning from Xituo Mountain, the kitten lived with her in the apartment.
I don't know why, but YOYO was very excited at night when he moved in. He walked around in the house and didn't sleep at all. During the day, he became sleepy and slept in the cat's nest.Now that Lin Leyao came back, it still looked drowsy, and it looked like it was busy all night last night.
Lin Leyao didn't bother her, picked up her mobile phone and took a few photos, returned to the living room and sat on the sofa, playing with her mobile phone silently.
She clicked on WeChat, edited the few photos she just took, and sent a post.
Lin Leyao: [Cat's daily life, sleeping zzz]
Xin Ying came out of the conference room and went back to the office to rest for a while. While waiting for the coffee machine to run, she opened WeChat to check today's news.
There are messages from Xu Hong, and there are messages from business partners' daily greetings.Xin Ying glanced at ten lines, omitting all of them. Soon, his eyes paused when they reached the bottom of the chat list.
Although she and Lin Leyao hadn't contacted each other for only three days, she usually received a lot of WeChat messages on her mobile phone, but within a few days, Lin Leyao's name in WeChat had been squeezed to the bottom.
Xin Ying was silent for a while, took a cup of coffee, and opened Moments at random.
Lin Leyao's dynamics jumped out instantly.
Seeing this dynamic, Xin Ying's heart skipped a beat.After browsing a few photos, Xin Ying silently clicked a thumbs up and quit WeChat.
I drank the coffee that had already been poured into my stomach in one gulp. The coffee was already cold, and my mouth was full of bitterness.
After learning the news that my sister-in-law was going to bring her partner home for dinner, Xin Wenwen was always restless.Until today when she saw her sister-in-law's likes under the kitten photos posted by Lin Leyao in Moments, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
She clicked on Lin Leyao's WeChat, and the chat page was still the chat history of the two of them more than half a year ago.
She pondered for a long time, then pressed the keyboard slowly, and clicked to send a sentence.
The mobile phone's WeChat sounded a notification tone, which was very obvious in the quiet room.
Lin Leyao turned on her phone, and when she saw the person who wrote the letter, the expression on her face faded.
She actually forgot to block this person.
Xin Wenwen: [Le Yao, how are you doing recently? 】
Lin Leyao: [What's the matter? 】
In the blink of an eye, Xin Wenwen made a voice call, and Lin Leyao simply cut it off.
There was silence for a while, and Xin Wenwen sent a string of texts.
Xin Wenwen asked: [I heard that you have been in a relationship recently. 】
Lin Leyao asked indifferently: [What does this have to do with you? 】
Lin Leyao replied very mercilessly, Xin Wenwen was stuck in his heart for a long time when he saw this sentence, and typed slowly.
[Do you... know enough about your current love partner? 】
Lin Leyao squinted her eyes, moved her eyes back and forth on this sentence, edited the message and replied: 【What do you mean? 】
Although Lin Leyao only sent these few words, for some reason, Xin Wenwen could feel Lin Leyao's impatient look on the phone through this passage, and worried that she would block her if she dragged on, so Xin Wenwen hurriedly made a call.
There was an extra call on the mobile phone, but Lin Leyao didn't answer, and several words popped up on the screen.
【Le Yao, answer the phone, I have something very important to tell you! 】
[You answer the phone! 】
Lin Leyao pursed her lips tightly, and when the call came again, she clicked through.
In the microphone, Xin Wenwen was very emotional, and quickly said: "Le Yao, where are you and your love partner? Are you going to get married? You are only 25 years old and your career is just on the rise. You got married so early..."
Answering the phone was not for this kind of hypocritical care, Lin Leyao asked coldly: "You called me for this?"
Xin Wenwen stopped speaking immediately, and stammered back: "No, no." After a pause, she asked again, "Le Yao, are you getting married?"
Lin Leyao answered firmly: "Yes."
"Then your, that marriage partner...is the surname Xin?" Xin Wenwen hesitated and finally asked the doubts in his heart.
As soon as the words fell, Lin Leyao opened her eyes slightly, as if she realized something.
After Xin Wenwen finished speaking, the microphone was silent for a long while before hearing Lin Leyao's voice.
Lin Leyao paused every word, and said slowly, "It's Xin."
Xin Wenwen blurted out: "Xin Ying is my sister-in-law!"
These words exploded in Lin Leyao's mind like a falling bomb.
Sister?Lin Leyao's lips parted, her face turned pale from the shock of this sentence.
There were many thoughts in her mind, and all kinds of thoughts rushed into her mind for a while.Sister-in-law, dear sister-in-law.There is a five-year age difference between the two, so how can they be sister-in-law?
Seeing that there was no sound in the microphone, Xin Wenwen continued to chase after the victory and said, "Le Yao, I haven't told you about my family background before. In fact, I am a child of the Xin family of the Huanning Group. My sister-in-law is the only daughter of my grandfather. Now he is the president of Huanning Group. My grandfather came to Hong Kong from Guangdong since he was a child. You should know that rich people in Hong Kong at his age are very traditional and superstitious. If they know that you have been with me and sister-in-law, come with us People of different generations have been in love, and they will definitely be dissatisfied. Besides, you are a star, if you really choose to be with my sister-in-law, you will definitely have a hard time later. Le Yao..."
Xin Wenwen said a lot in a row, Lin Leyao has slowly recovered at this time, she did not listen carefully to Xin Wenwen's words.But for a while, she thought a lot in her mind, and finally remembered what Xin Ying said, and she quickly calmed down.
The mood calmed down, Xin Wenwen's words began to penetrate into his ears and into his mind non-stop, Lin Leyao interrupted decisively: "What do you mean by these words?"
Xin Wenwen's words came to an abrupt end, Lin Leyao still said coldly: "There are so many excuses, it's because you don't want me to marry your sister-in-law, right?"
Every word stabbed straight into Xin Wenwen's heart.
Xin Wenwen's expression changed in an instant, and he was speechless. After a while, he murmured, "Le Yao..."
The words just out of the mouth were interrupted.
"So what if Xin Ying is your sister-in-law?" Lin Leyao sneered, "We have nothing to do with each other after you cheated on me. What capacity do you use to say these things to me? As Xin Ying's niece? If you come to talk to me in this capacity When I speak, you have to call me aunt first."
In the next second, Lin Leyao directly cut off the call.
Knowing each other for so long, Xin Wenwen heard Lin Leyao talk to her in such a cold, impatient and even contemptuous tone for the first time, she felt like she was meeting Lin Leyao for the first time.
It is no longer the boring and silent character of the past, this kind of tone matches her appearance, Xin Wenwen feels that this is the real Lin Leyao, proud and very attractive.
Lin Leyao hung up the phone and sat on the sofa in a daze.
She didn't know Xin Wenwen's identity before, and Xin Wenwen didn't know her family background either. She probably thought she was just an ordinary entertainer until now.I don't know what her purpose is today, but the reasons she said are to prevent herself from being with Xin Ying.
It is undeniable that if I had been a few years ago, I would have chosen to believe the reasons she said.But now that she has grown up, after all, she is a child of Huanling Ji's family and was raised by Ji Hongchen. If she really wants to get married, it's not a big deal!
Suddenly, Lin Leyao thought about going to the restaurant with Xin Ying for dinner that day, and her calm face slowly sank again.
Xin Ying should have heard everything she and Tang Ran said in the bathroom that day, so she already knew that she and Xin Wenwen were together?
Why didn't she talk about it at the time?
Lin Leyao closed her eyes, and after a long time, she exhaled slowly.
The mobile phone rang suddenly in the room, and the mobile phone held in the palm vibrated continuously with the ringtone. Lin Leyao recovered and connected the call.
As soon as the phone was connected, Ji Rong's angry voice came immediately: "What's the situation of your marriage with the Xin family? You have to get a marriage certificate before I know it now? You have kept it from me for so long? Did you hide it from me? Be your mother?"
A series of questions broke through the microphone and pierced Lin Leyao's ears. It is estimated that Grandpa just told Ji Rong about the marriage.
Lin Leyao pursed her lips and said, "Grandpa has already met in advance. On the day of the Xin family banquet, our two families had dinner together. The day before, Xin Ying will visit you and uncle in advance."
To Ji Rong's ears, it seemed like he was arranging a frivolous job. Ji Rong glared and said angrily, "My parents haven't seen each other before, why are you getting married! Lin Leyao, you are really talented!"
Lin Leyao calmly said: "I will see you in two days. Xin Ying, you should have met her before, or you should have heard others talk about her. Then we will have dinner together and you will see the real person again. Okay mom, I still have something to do. Speaking of which."
Lin Leyao hung up the phone directly.
At this time, in the Huanning Group building, Xin Ying was working on her work wearing silver-rimmed glasses, and Kong Anqing knocked on the wooden door of the office.
Kong Anqing: "President Xin, Miss Wenwen is here."
He glanced at the time displayed on the computer screen.
6:30 in the evening
It's already time to get off work, what is Xin Wenwen doing here at this time?
Xin Ying took off her glasses, squeezed between her eyebrows, and said, "Let her in."
