Atypical crematorium of Lint's help and family owner

Chapter 22 The Reality Inside the Car

In the black car, Lin Zhen sat alone in the back seat.

Not long after, the back seat door was opened from the outside, the wind blew Lin Zhen's hair, and a familiar scent hit. The tall Li Zhenbai leaned on the car body with one hand, bent over and looked into the car.

Lin Zhen was wrapped in a blanket, and didn't look up at him, only quietly staring at the tip of his shoe.

"How's the shoulder?" Li Zhenbai's tone was calm at this time, even with a bit of concern, as if he was a different person from the one who said the hurtful words just now.

Lin Zhen still didn't look at him, and didn't say anything.

Li Zhenbai kept this posture and looked at him for a while, fixed his eyes on Lin Zhen, and said to the driver: "Old Zhang, you go out first."

Master Zhang agreed, and quickly got out of the car and walked to the other side of the garage.

Silence, maintained between the two.

After a long time, Lin Zhen finally moved. He moved his body and sat on the other side of the back seat of the car.

Seeing this, Li Zhenbai's tense expression eased a little, he sat in Lin Zhen's original seat, and closed the car door with a bang.

The carriage is an almost completely enclosed space. Both of them are sitting in the back seat. The reception above is still going on. Now there is no one in the basement, and it is extremely quiet. Even the sound of breathing in the car has become "loud". The smell of perfume blended together with the faint smell of wine when Li Zhenbai exhaled, merged into a hazy and intoxicating smell.

But at this time, the atmosphere between the two was not "intoxicated", and even a little stiff.

Lin Zhen suddenly felt very tired, his back was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back, and he didn't want to talk, not even a word.

He leaned against the back of the seat, leaned the back of his head on the neck pillow, and stared aimlessly at the roof of the car.

"I forgot about your shoulder injury just now," Li Zhenbai called him in a deep voice, "Xiaozhen, tell me, how is your shoulder, do you need to go to the hospital?"

Lin Zhen closed his eyes: "No need."

"Are you losing your temper with me?" Li Zhenbai's tone could not detect any emotion.

At this time, Lin Zhen didn't want to carefully observe and take into account his emotions as usual, so he closed his eyes and didn't answer.

There was another moment of silence in the carriage, Lin Zhen didn't know what Li Zhenbai was thinking, and didn't know if he was looking at him, he just wanted to go back to his room now, to be alone and not have to deal with anyone.

Ding, it's the voice of a message from the mobile phone, it's from Li Zhenbai.

Lin Zhen didn't hear the sound of the other party sliding the phone to unlock, and Li Zhenbai didn't read the message.

After a minute or two, probably because Li Zhenbai didn't reply to the message, the phone rang again for a message notification.

Li Zhenbai still didn't look at it.

Lin Zhen opened his eyes, gritted his teeth, sat up straight, and turned to look at Li Zhenbai.

Li Zhenbai didn't look at him, he leaned on the back of the chair, staring at the front windshield, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Zhen said, "Go up, it's not appropriate to leave Miss Chen alone."

Li Zhenbai seemed to come back to his senses at this moment. He looked at Lin Zhen. The moment their eyes met, Lin Zhen thought that he saw hesitation in the other's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. Hurry up. Doubt it's an illusion.

Li Zhenbai leaned slightly and asked him, "Are you really okay?"

Lin Zhen nodded: "I'm fine, can I trouble you to ask the driver to take me back to the hotel?"

Li Zhenbai said, "Okay."

He obviously agreed, but Li Zhenbai didn't do anything, and was still sitting in the car.

Lin Zhen could feel that although Li Zhenbai didn't say anything, his words and gestures were different from his usual cold and heartless appearance.

From the ecstasy he had never had in front of him just now, to his amiable attitude now, Lin Zhen could clearly sense that the current Li Zhenbai was different from usual.

Is it because you just said something ugly and feel guilty?Or is it because...Chen Jiayi is by his side today?

Lin Zhen masochistically thought, only a beautiful, pure and lovely girl like Chen Jiayi can turn a person like Li Zhenbai into a soft finger.

Regardless of the reason, taking advantage of Li Zhenbai's rare ease of talking, Lin Zhen planned to take the opportunity to ask him something.

"If..." Lin Zhen hesitated to speak, Li Zhenbai's attention was quickly shifted to him, he bit his lips, "If I want to get the guardianship of Xiaoshuo from my father, will you help me?"

Under Lin Zhenxi's gaze, Li Zhenbai replied: "No."

"why?"

Li Zhenbai refused too simply, quickly breaking Lin Zhen's fantasy, making him feel even more embarrassed than at the entrance of the banquet hall.

Li Zhenbai frowned slightly, his tone was serious, and he always had a business-like attitude: "Energy lent your father's company [-] million yuan, you should understand that your father used a small rate to restrain you, and he also used this [-] million yuan to restrain you. In order to prevent him from going to the road of malicious bankruptcy, and to pay the arrears in batches on time after one year, I will not tear myself apart with him."

"Of course, ENERGY can afford this [-] million loss." Lin Zhen's eyes flickered, and he heard Li Zhenbai's final blow to him: "But, it's not necessary."

Only then did Lin Zhen realize that Li Zhenbai's blunt refusal just now was just the beginning, and the three words "unnecessary" are the most deadly.

The most important thing in his heart, in Li Zhenbai's case, is a light "no need".

"I am the head of the Li family. ENERGY is not mine alone. It belongs to everyone in the Li family," Li Zhenbai said. You can understand."

Li Zhenbai is a smart man, of course he knows what his decision brings to Lin Zhen.

However, Li Zhenbai has no obligation to help him, Lin Zhen thought, he can't blame him.

Sure enough, the only one you can rely on is yourself.

Ding, the phone's notification tone rang again.

Lin Zhen raised his head and looked at Li Zhenbai. He didn't show any resignation or anger. He even smiled: "Go and work, I want to go back."

After looking down at the phone, Li Zhenbai took out a jewelry box from behind and put it on the seat beside Lin Zhen.

"What is it?" Lin Zhen asked.

Li Zhenbai replied: "Open it and have a look."

Lin Zhen picked up the box and opened it to look.

"Do you like it?" Li Zhenbai asked.

Lin Zhen's eyelashes trembled, and he showed a bright smile: "It's beautiful, thank you."

Li Zhenbai observed his expression carefully, when Lin Zhen laughed, his pupils trembled, and he said in a low voice, "Just like it."

The rear door opened, and Li Zhenbai was about to go upstairs.

Lin Zhen pulled up the blanket on his body, and put his hands on the jewelry box.

When the driver saw that the boss got out of the car, he trotted over here.

Li Zhenbai stood by the car door, paused for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Zhen in the car, he was backlit, making his expression unclear.

Li Zhenbai asked: "Do you need me to call Zhengxiao and ask him to buy a plane ticket to accompany you?"

Lin Zhen's body trembled, he raised his head and smiled brighter at Li Zhenbai, like a clear sky without a shadow, he said, "Thank you, brother." When he first spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, but after he coughed lightly, he returned to normal Yes, he said to Li Zhenbai with a smile, "No need, big brother, I got enough today."

Li Zhenbai left, and the driver drove the car out of the basement and merged into the traffic on the street.

The jewelry box in Lin Zhen's hand opened and closed, making a slight snap from time to time.

In the flickering light and shadow, in the jewelry box printed with the LOGO of the jewelry brand used by the Li family, the new expensive brooch shone brightly.
