Chapter 60 The Quiet Garden
Lions and wolves, and hyenas in the shadows.
Someone hurried to the door and greeted warmly: "Boss Lin is really radiant and radiant today!"
Li Zhenbai knew this person, his surname was Yang, and his name was Yang You. He should be under 30 years old. He was unknown before. In recent years, sharing medical care has emerged in City B. Many people who don't know think that he is self-made, but they don't know that he is actually B. The illegitimate son of the powerful generation of the Yang family, one of the famous families in the city, has invested heavily in shared medical care, and the initial investment comes from the Yang family.
Lin Zhen smiled at Yang You, stretched out his fair and slender hand to shake him, and said politely: "Mr. Yang is over the award. I heard that you took the stage as a representative of young entrepreneurs this morning. Unfortunately, I have something to do during the day. , I failed to see Mr. Yang's demeanor!"
Hearing this, Yang You didn't show a complacent look, instead he smiled inwardly and said, "It's the organizing committee who promoted me, there are many people who are more suitable to speak on stage than me..."
He changed the subject, blinked and said, "I know why Mr. Lin didn't come to the meeting during the day. I heard that Youyang Construction bought another cement factory today. Mr. Lin wants to monopolize the building materials industry in our city B. ah!"
Lin Zhen smiled brightly: "Where, compared with Mr. Yang, it's just a small business."
Lin Zhen laughed too much...Yang You said in his mouth: "Boss Lin is too modest."
His gaze lingered greedily on his beautiful and delicate face for a second or two, but he didn't look at it for too long after all, and turned away in time before being rude.
Yang You looked back at the venue, smiled and stretched out his hand and said: "There are many people who want to know you, may I take you to say hello to them?"
"Okay." Lin Zhen agreed, and walked side by side to the arena with Yang You.
The two passed not far from Li Zhenbai, and they didn't seem to notice this important figure in City B.
Li Zhenbai didn't call out to Lin Zhen, but silently watched the side face of the other party as he passed by.
Li Zhenbai knew why when Lin Zhen just entered the door, he felt that the other party looked both familiar and unfamiliar.
What is familiar is this person's impeccably beautiful face and this body that cannot be ignored. What is unfamiliar is the other person's eyes.
In the past, Lin Zhen was proud, wronged, and full of drive, but most of them were forbearing, crying sadly with tears in his eyes, low and silent in extreme disappointment, or being afraid to touch when angry, full of embarrassment. broken.
He seldom smiles, because he is guilty of committing crimes, and his smile may bring him unexpected troubles.
But today's Lin Zhen, with a faint smile on his lips and slightly curved eyes, looks extremely beautiful, and still so fascinating.
But his eyes are different, there is no longer daze and hesitation in his eyes, only confidence and wisdom, and aggression hidden in it but occasionally overflowing.
Not long ago, Lin Zhen might still give people the impression of a neutral and lost deer in the mountains and forests. Now, his appearance has not changed, but he looks like an ambitious male wolf ready to go. .
This is an extremely beautiful, but also dangerous beast.
Li Zhenbai tried his best to forbear his gaze away from Lin Zhen's divorce and even his resignation from ENERGY.
Although almost two months have passed, the lingering warmth of people's discussion has not completely subsided. He does not intend to let himself or Lin Zhen become the talk of this reception.
Just when someone came to talk to him, Li Zhenbai took advantage of the situation and walked to the other side of the field, a place far away from Lin Zhen. However, during the chat, he still couldn't help but occasionally glance over there inadvertently.
Lin Zhen was near the buffet table, surrounded by a group of people talking, his eyes only stopped for a while on a piece of strawberry mousse on the table, someone took out the cake graciously, and handed it to him with both hands.
Lin Zhen took it, and his ruddy lips moved slightly, probably saying "thank you".
After finishing speaking, he casually glanced to the other side, just in time to meet the eyes of Li Zhenbai who turned his head to look at him.
Li Zhenbai's heart was shocked, and the expression on his face almost lost control, but Lin Zhen's eyes just glanced indifferently, and then returned to the face of the person who was talking to him.
Li Zhenbai was disappointed for a while, but he saw Lin Zhen scooped a spoonful of pink mousse with a delicate and soft texture with a silver spoon, put it in his mouth, closed his lips, pursed the corners of his mouth, lowered his eyes, and smiled.
Among the group of people surrounding him, someone couldn't help but move his Adam's apple, Li Zhenbai noticed it, but he didn't have the mood to get angry.
For some reason, Li Zhenbai always felt that Lin Zhen's smile just now was aimed at him.
Li Zhenbai managed to suppress the confusion in his heart, and concentrated on talking to the person in front of him.
On the other side of the reception venue, Lin Zhen’s hand had already been replaced with dry white, and there was only a glass of base wine left in the glass. Yang You called the waiter and poured him another glass of wine himself.
Lin Zhen drank a little too much, his face was flushed, Yang You looked at him fascinatedly, couldn't help but lower his head close to his ear, and asked softly: "Are you okay, you drank a lot."
Lin Zhen looked at him sideways, his eyes were unexpectedly sober, "I can drink, it's fine..." He lifted his chin and said, "There is a lady over there who has been looking at you, you probably know her, right? "
Yang You took a look, his expression darkened, he hesitated obviously, and said: "It's my relative, Mr. Lin, I'll go say hello, excuse me."
Yang You followed him all night, Lin Zhen finally sent him away, and let out a sigh of relief.
In order to take care of the ladies in dresses, the air conditioner was turned on at a relatively high temperature, and after drinking, Lin Zhen felt very hot. He glanced at everyone in the venue, put down his glass, and went out from the open balcony. After leaving the venue, I went to the garden connected outside.
The venue was rented from the banquet hall on the first floor of the hotel. The door he entered just now was the main entrance of the banquet hall. On the opposite side of the main entrance, there are three open balconies that can directly go to the garden attached to the hotel outside.
The garden of this hotel is very well designed, the weather in October is not too cold, the grass is still green, tall trees are scattered all over the grass, in the circle surrounded by trees and flowers, there are people A swing-style bench for rest.
Lin Zhen walked into one of the circles, sat on the swing and swayed slowly, enjoying the cool feeling brought by the night wind.
Normally, such a wind would feel a little cold, but it was just right for him now.
As soon as the wind blew, the alcohol came up. Lin Zhen felt a little dizzy, but he didn't feel uncomfortable. Instead, he had a kind of drunken rush.
After a while, there were footsteps approaching and stopped in front of the swing. Lin Zhen didn't open his eyes, but still leaned on the back of the swing chair and swayed gently with his legs.
The other side of the swing was pressed down and sank, and someone sat beside him.
Lin Zhen didn't even need to kick the ground, he retracted his legs and curled up on the chair. The people around him took over his "work" and drove the bench to continue to shake slightly.
Outside the circle surrounded by trees and flowers, someone passed by chatting.
The voice of one of the young men said: "I observed it all night, that Lin Zhen didn't say a word to the head of the Li family, and the head of the Li family was also very indifferent to him, pretending that he didn't see this person all night.
It seems that some rumors on the Internet may not be false. If he and the second son of the Li family really broke up and divorced peacefully, it wouldn't be like today. "
Another man with a more mature voice said: "It is said that when Lin Zhen left Li's house, he didn't get any money. If this is true, this young man has a lot of backbone."
The young man gave a "tsk" and said: "The Li family is really unkind. She is such a beautiful woman who is good in every way. She married that trash second generation ancestor of their family, and in the end she didn't compensate her for anything."
The man with a mature voice responded: "Before, I thought that Lin Zhen was able to get to where he is today because of the protection of the Li family. Now, judging by the attitude of the Li family leader, it's good that he didn't use his power to trip him up."
The young man admired: "This Lin is really not simple. He is still so good. It is really rare. Unfortunately, he is divorced."
The man with a mature voice laughed sarcastically, and said: "Even if he has been divorced a hundred times, you won't be able to get it, so it's your turn to dislike it. You didn't see that posture just now, and there are too many people chasing after you." went."
The sound of the two talking gradually faded away, and the circle became quiet again.
"Don't fall asleep, you'll catch a cold." A familiar deep and pleasant voice sounded beside her.
Lin Zhen opened his eyes, and looked at the tall figure beside him in a daze.
"Really asleep?" Li Zhenbai approached him, observing his face under the dim street light.
Lin Zhen shook his head: "No, I just feel tired and don't want to wake up."
Li Zhenbai took off his coat and covered him, the swing bench trembled slightly with his movements, Lin Zhen smiled and said to him: "They are talking nonsense, don't mind."
Li Zhenbai didn't say anything, just looked at him silently in the night.
Lin Zhen was stared at by him for a long time, so he changed his posture and changed his face forward, so that the other party could only see his side face.
After a long time, Li Zhenbai said again: "Maybe I should really blackmail you with business. In this way, in the past two months, you wouldn't have given me a single call."
Lin Zhen laughed: "I called you, what are you talking about?"
Li Zhenbai wanted to get closer to him, but he was heavier than Lin Zhen. If the two of them were on one side, the swing might be biased, so he got off the swing, stood in front of Lin Zhen, and said to him: "You can Ask me if I miss you."
Lin Zhen looked up at him, but said nothing.
Without waiting for him to answer, Li Zhenbai said in a hoarse voice: "I will tell you, I miss you very much."
After a while, Lin Zhen finally spoke. He said, "You know, I'm going to start a new life. I don't want to have any relationship with the Li family, let alone contact you. As I said, I will treat you like this. good."
Li Zhenbai bent down, held his shoulders with both hands, stared into his eyes in the night, his lips trembled slightly, and said softly: "In the past so many days, do you really miss me at all?"
Lin Zhen looked up at him, her soft and full lips parted slightly: "I don't have much room in my heart, I can't hold so much."
In an instant, Li Zhenbai was struck by lightning.
Lin Zhen pushed his hands away, stood up, and the coat he was covering slipped onto the chair, "I'm going back to the venue first, you can do whatever you want."
After speaking, Lin Zhen turned around and left, leaving Li Zhenbai standing by the swing alone.
Li Zhenbai watched his back disappear into the exit, he picked up his coat on the chair and held it in the palm of his hand, he could still vaguely feel the warmth left by Lin Zhen.
Outside the circle surrounded by trees and flowers, a 27-year-old young man is clinging to the thick trunk of a big tree, hiding his figure. He looks at the back of Lin Zhen who is gradually going away, revealing his thoughtfulness look.
The next day, before Li Zhenbai left the company to go to the airport, Qin You said that a gentleman named Anzhi asked to see him.
Li Zhenbai was arranging his computer bag, and replied without raising his head: "No see..."
Qin You hesitated for a moment, and said, "He said that if you don't see him, he will go to the opposite side to find Lin Zhen."
Crack, the mouse in Li Zhenbai's hand was smashed on the desktop, and he said with a gloomy expression, "Let him in!"
