"Lin Ye, have you been in jail in the past few years?"
Chen Xigang stood up and felt the pain in his body. His brows furrowed and he looked at Lin Ye lying on the bed with some embarrassment.
One day and one night!
From the time she returned home yesterday to when Lin Ye came over, she didn't know why she agreed to Lin Ye's ridiculous requests.
"Almost."
Lin Ye chuckled, got up and walked to the bathroom: "Let's go out for a walk later."
"I'm not going shopping."
Chen Xi rolled his eyes, who are these people? Don’t you know what he has done? He still wants to go shopping...
Half an hour later, Chen Xi, dressed carefully in a strapless dress, walked out of the bathroom.
Lin Ye, who was sitting on the sofa waiting, was very satisfied when she saw Chen Xi's dress. Chen Xi had a very well-proportioned figure and a delicate face. Even if she was walking on the street without makeup, she would be recognized at a glance.
, not to mention well-groomed.
"Let's go, what do you mean by that smile?"
"nothing."
Lin Ye stood up and let Chen Xi hold his arm. He smiled because he thought that half an hour ago, Chen Xi complained that he didn't want to go shopping, but finally put on makeup.
Women, as long as they talk about shopping, they will always be resurrected with full blood.
Lin Ye and Chen Xi were walking on the street and turned heads a lot, but they were already used to it and just went shopping by themselves.
Chen Xi had no intention of entering the store. She simply enjoyed the leisurely life of two people chatting while shopping.
"It seems like you are a strong woman now."
"It's not that strong. I'm just making a living. If Mr. Lin hates me one day, I won't live on the streets and starve to death."
"Are you worried about this?"
"Of course, you see...I have crow's feet, but you are the same as you were three years ago. In a few years, when I am old, who knows what Mr. Lin is thinking? Aren't you men all very single-minded?"
Of?"
"Um?"
"I will always like beautiful eighteen-year-old girls exclusively."
Lin Ye smiled, he could probably guess Chen Xi's psychology.
The crow's feet are fake, just because her appearance has hardly changed, which makes Chen Xi feel a little bit in crisis.
"Don't worry, I won't let you starve to death. Even if I really hate it, I will give you enough money to live on for the rest of your life." Lin Yeban joked and promised Chen Xi.
"Really? Thank you so much, Mr. Lin."
Chen Xi put his hands on Lin Ye's arm, leaned over and gave Lin Ye a sweet kiss. Then he immediately let go of his arm and ran forward in small steps, with his skirt flying and a smirk on his face.
Chen Xi, who had a proud expression as if she had succeeded in a sneak attack, had no idea that her naughty behavior had attracted the attention of many boys on the roadside.
Fortunately, no one with no eyesight came forward, pretended to be cool and then got slapped in the face by Lin Ye.
Crystal Palace!
The landmark building of Raocheng Commercial Pedestrian Street sells women's products, mainly clothing.
"Master Lin, would you like to visit my dance club?"
"Okay, let's see how your career as a strong woman is doing?"
Lin Ye nodded. In the past three years, Chen Xi opened a dance club by himself. From the beginning, there was only one folk dance class. Now, there are folk dance, ballet and street dance, with more than 300 students.
On average, there are more than 100 new students every year.
In terms of tuition fees, the tuition fee for ordinary interest classes is 5,000 yuan per month for three months, for advanced classes, it is 3,000 yuan per month, and for art exam training, it is 8,000 yuan per month.
Excluding rent and teacher's salary, and deducting water, electricity and property fees, Chen Xi's annual profit is between 300,000 and 500,000. In a city like Raocheng, a girl who can have such an income is considered to have a successful career.
.
"This is the stage, this is the classroom...this is the teacher's lounge, and this is my office."
After entering the dance club, Chen Xi introduced the layout of the dance club to Lin Ye. There were teachers teaching students to dance in several classrooms.
"Master Lin, what do you want to drink?"
Chen Xi's office is very simple, with a desk, a sofa and a coffee table.
"Whatever."
Lin Ye sat down on the sofa, and Chen Xi went to pour water for Lin Ye. As soon as the water was poured, the office door was pushed open.
"Xixi, let me tell you, Wang Yang is so disgusting. He poached us... Ah, Mr. Lin... you are here."
A fat girl came in through the door. Lin Ye looked at her and said with a smile, "Well, let me take a look."
"Then...then I won't disturb you and Xixi."
After leaving these words, the girl turned around and left in a hurry. After walking out of the office, she closed the door thoughtfully.
"You know Tiantian, haven't I seen you in the past few years? She kept asking me about my situation, and I said that I was dumped by Mr. Lin. In order to continue living, I had to start my own business. Tiantian believed it, and then
Follow me and manage this dance club."
His best friend closed the door thoughtfully. When Chen Xi saw Lin Ye's half-smiling expression, his face turned red and he quickly explained.
"A very nice girl."
"Yes, this dance club is what it is today. In fact, Tiantian has the greatest contribution. Tiantian is responsible for things like venue rental and enrollment."
"You can't say that, after all, you paid for it." Thinking of what Tiantian said when he came in, Lin Ye continued to ask: "Is your dance club in trouble?"
"It's not really a problem, right? There is a dance club in the commercial building opposite the Crystal Palace. We are enemies. We are so close and there are only so many students nearby. The other party will naturally find ways to compete for students." Chen Xi looked at it.
The competition is very open and this kind of competition is inevitable.
"If there was fair competition, Tiantian wouldn't say that."
Although Chen Xi said it in an understatement, Lin Ye believed that the other party must have used some unfair or disgusting means.
"What else could it be? It's not enough for a woman to start a business, let alone a beauty like me who is as beautiful as a fairy... You can only throw dirty water on me."
When she boasted about herself, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Xi briefly explained the situation, because the two dance clubs are just across the street, and the parents who bring their children to sign up will come to the two dance clubs for comparison, and the person opposite is the parent.
When he came to the door, he threw dirty water on Chen Xi because he was not serious and had some scandals with the students' parents...
Chen Xi's appearance is here. When the child's mother hears this, she will definitely feel a little confused. Learning to dance is a long process for this child. There will always be a time when the father goes to pick up the child, in case her husband is also seduced.
Where is it?
"Then you just let him spread rumors like this?"
"Otherwise, what can I do? I can't stop him from talking to others, and what he said is very cryptic. Even if I want to sue him, I can't do anything."
Lin Ye agreed upon hearing this.
"Our Mr. Lin, please leave this matter alone and teach me to handle it on my own. If I really can't handle it, then Mr. Lin will take action. Well, let's say the same thing as those domineering presidents: You dare to touch my woman!"
As if thinking of Lin Ye transforming into a domineering president, Chen Xi himself burst out laughing with joy.
"Don't laugh. If I were really a domineering president, what I would say is: Woman, just spend money."
"Lin Ye, to be honest, your temperament is not like a domineering president, but more like a landlord."
Chen Xi said casually. What she didn't know was that Lin Ye was indeed a landlord in another world.
"If I am a landlord, then who are you?"
"I am a doting concubine. Aren't all landlords doting on their concubines?" Chen Xi smiled brightly.
"Then I will take you, my concubine, out for a meal today."
"Have a meal?"
"Well, I made an appointment with my cousin for dinner, and you will come with me tonight."
Chen Xi hesitated a little. She didn't know the origin of Lin Ye's identity, but in her opinion, Lin Ye must be from a big family. Can her identity be seen in the light?
"Why, you don't want to?"
"No...no, forget it. You, the old man, are not worried anyway, so why should I worry about it? You can sit in the office for a while while I go and touch up my makeup."
"Didn't you just finish putting on your makeup? Do you still need to touch up your makeup?"
Lin Ye was a little incomprehensible. He had put on makeup when he went out. He had only been shopping for more than an hour, and now he had to touch up his makeup.
"What do you men know? Girls touch up their makeup all the time. Otherwise, why do you think we girls like to carry backpacks when we go out? Sir, just sit down here. If you get bored, you can play on the computer."
…
"Xixi, what's wrong with him?"
When Chen Xi left the office, Zhu Tiantian immediately came over and asked curiously in a low voice.
"What's wrong with him? Tiantian, do you really want me to be abandoned?"
"No...I didn't mean that, I just...Hey, actually it doesn't matter if you can be together for the rest of your life. I'm afraid that after a few years...Actually, it's pretty good now. We have a dance club and we make a lot of money a year."
Money, I will find a quality boyfriend to get married to when the time comes."
In Zhu Tiantian's heart, it was actually a good thing that Chen Xi and Mr. Lin broke up. With Chen Xi's appearance and current career, she would have no problem finding a good boyfriend, and her life would be very happy in the future.
"Tiantian, you didn't often say that some bad women used to find a rich man to support them when they were young. After saving the money, they went back to their hometown to open a clothing store and beauty shop, and then found an honest man to take over. Don't you hate this the most?
Raise a woman?"
"Then...isn't that different?"
"What's the difference? Just because I am your best friend, you are called being strict with others and lenient with yourself. In the worst case, it is called selective law enforcement!"
"Oh, Xixi, you did it on purpose." Zhu Tiantian was about to take action before she could say anything. Chen Xi quickly ran away and when Zhu Tiantian caught up with him, the expression on his face became very serious:
"Tiantian, I know you are doing it for my own good and thinking about my future, but I have no intention of getting married in this life, and I don't intend to deceive someone who is honest to take over. That's fine."
"Okay, no matter what decision you make, I will support you."
"Support me. You have to be like me and not get married in the future. When the time comes, we will go to a nursing home together? This is good. We can take care of each other."
…
…
A newly opened restaurant in Raocheng that imitates the Hong Kong style of the 1990s.
In a small box, a young man and woman looked a little nervous.
"Gao Jingwen, you should have a better attitude later. As long as my cousin is satisfied with you, my parents will have no objection."
"Don't worry, I can definitely take care of your cousin."
Gao Jingwen was very confident, but his sweaty hands on the table revealed his true inner thoughts.
If he were meeting Nuan Nuan's parents, he wouldn't be so nervous, but if he was meeting Nuan Nuan's cousin, everyone is of the same age, and boys of the same age generally know what each other is thinking, so he would be a little nervous.
But he was nervous. Gao Jingwen was confident. He was not bad at both his family and his own abilities. He was also considered a leader among his peers. Nuan Nuan's cousin would definitely be satisfied with him.
"My cousin sent a message. He is at the door. I will pick up my cousin."
"Let's... go together."
Gao Jingwen suddenly stood up from his chair and followed Zhang Nuannuan out of the box door towards the lobby door. At the door, Lin Ye and Chen Xi happened to walk in.
There were many diners at the lobby table. As Lin Ye and Chen Xi walked in, they attracted the attention of most of the diners.
Handsome men and beautiful women are a sight to behold wherever they go.
"elder brother!"
The diners heard a shout, and then saw the handsome boy looking to the left, where there was also a beautiful woman waving to him.
Hearing the beautiful woman's "brother", these diners could only sigh, genes are really powerful, look at this brother and sister are both beauties.
"Nuan Nuan, let me introduce you, this is Chen Xi."
"Chen Xi, this is my cousin Zhang Nuannuan."
Lin Ye introduced Zhang Nuannuan and Chen Xi to each other, and his eyes also noticed Gao Jingwen standing behind Zhang Nuannuan.
"Wow, Sister Chen Xi is so beautiful. Brother, this is my sister-in-law."
Zhang Nuannuan's eyes slid. His brother had never brought a girl out. This must be his girlfriend.
Hearing Zhang Nuannuan's address, Chen Xi didn't know how to answer, so he looked at Lin Ye for help.
"Well, that's right."
Lin Ye's words were equivalent to acknowledging Chen Xi's identity. Chen Xi blushed, but Zhang Nuannuan didn't care about it and immediately stepped forward and took Chen Xi's hand: "Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful. I thought my brother was interested in women."
I don’t dare to be interested anymore, it turns out it’s because I haven’t met someone as beautiful as my sister-in-law.”
Zhang Nuannuan was very excited. Her mother was more concerned about her cousin's life events than her own. If she told her the good news, her mother would definitely not object to her and Gao Jingwen's affairs.
"Brother, my name is Gao Jingwen. Nuannuan told you about me, right?"
Gao Jingwen, who was abandoned by his girlfriend, looked a little embarrassed and had a flattering smile on his face. He didn't know why, but when he saw Nuannuan, his cousin, his pressure suddenly increased several times.
"Well, I heard Nuannuan say that you have been talking for a year."
"Yes, we have been talking for ten months."
"That's good."
"Well, yes."
…
…
"Pfft, brother, what are you two doing standing at the door? Come in quickly."
Zhang Nuannuan couldn't help but laugh when she saw her cousin and her boyfriend looking at each other standing at the door. Chen Xi waited until Lin Ye came in and sat down, then asked in a low voice: "Why can't we just be together for ten months? Just now
Should I give you a BGM?"
"Sister-in-law, I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air..."
Zhang Nuannuan also chimed in, and Lin Ye smiled. He was silent just now. It was indeed because he couldn't find anything to talk about at the moment.
Everyone is of the same age, so he can't ask the boy how many people are in his family, what he does, or investigate his household registration and background.
The most important thing is that this boy is "upright", and that is enough.
Moreover, Nuannuan also told him some things about her boyfriend.
My parents are employees of public institutions, and I have a sister at home who is already married. The boy himself is a programmer. He returned to Raocheng last year to start a business and opened a technology company. He and Nuannuan met through business cooperation.
With Zhang Nuannuan and Chen Xi present, the atmosphere at the dinner table soon became lively. After all, they were all of the same age. Gao Jingwen returned to normal after the initial nervousness and was able to answer some of Lin Ye's questions with ease.
.
"We in Raocheng are developing rapidly now. Many units have begun to promote Internet-based offices, and many communities are also building smart communities. Your company's development prospects are still good. As long as you operate it carefully, the market is still broad."
"Yes, I took a fancy to this, so I quit my job in Shanghai and came back to start my own business."
Gao Jingwen didn't feel at all that his cousin Nuan Nuan's tone was a bit old-fashioned. He started his own business not long after graduation, and starting a business is the most challenging because he has to deal with all kinds of people. Looking at the man sitting quietly in his seat,
From time to time, she would pick up food for his cousin. She was as beautiful as a fairy. He knew that Nuannuan's cousin was definitely something special.
Even though Cousin Nuan Nuan is very handsome, in today's society handsome people cannot be used as food. The more beautiful women are, the more they understand this, because they have seen many outstanding men and know better what kind of man they want.
"Nuan Nuan, when are you going to tell my aunt?"
After chatting with Gao Jingwen for a while, Lin Ye looked at his cousin.
"Brother, I plan to tell my mother next year. Our company is now on the right track. Jing Wen is also very busy this year. He plans to cooperate with several property companies in the city to build a smart and safe community."
"There is no conflict between being busy at work and telling my aunt." Lin Ye frowned and turned his gaze back to Gao Jingwen: "Jingwen, is what Nuannuan said what you meant?"
"No...no!"
Gao Jingwen quickly explained that for some reason, cousin Nuan Nuan's look put him under great pressure: "I...I'm going to Nuan Nuan's house in a few days."
Zhang Nuannuan looked as if she was frightened when she saw her boyfriend. She curled her lips. Her cousin was not a monster, so he could still eat him.
Facing his girlfriend's contemptuous look, Gao Jingwen smiled bitterly in his heart. He was really not a coward. He really felt tremendous pressure and it was all a conditioned reflex.
"Well, it's almost time. If my aunt and uncle don't have any objections, I can take Nuannuan to your house to meet your parents. It's right for a man to be busy with his career, but it doesn't conflict with starting a family."
Gao Jingwen smiled bitterly when he heard it. It was not that he was unwilling, but he knew that once the elders of both parties knew about it, they would immediately prepare for the engagement. And once the engagement is busy, it will indeed delay a lot of things.
Especially now that his company is not the only one in the city, he originally planned to sign contracts with some communities in one go in the near future.
But if he is asked to choose between Nuan Nuan and the development of his career, he will still choose Nuan Nuan. As for the company, the development will slow down at most.
"Nuan Nuan, how is your studio?"
"Brother, what kind of studio is this? I am now a company. I am the local life-oriented agent of the largest short video platform in our city. I have more than 30 employees."
"It's so powerful, not bad."
Lin Ye knew well that because of himself, Chen Shanghan must have taken care of his cousin's company all the way. Chen Shanghan's company alone was enough for his cousin to eat.
"Nuan Nuan, aren't you the boss of Nuan Xin Culture Media?" Chen Xi listened to Lin Ye's words and suddenly asked Zhang Nuannuan.
"Yes, sister-in-law, do you also know our company?"
"Not long ago, I was thinking about cooperating with your company to advertise enrollment in short videos, but the price was a bit high and I couldn't bear it."
"Ah, sister-in-law, what do you do?"
"Opened a dance club."
"Brother, you are serious. You knew that I was doing this, but you didn't tell my sister-in-law." Zhang Nuannuan glanced at Lin Ye with a resentful look, and then said: "Sister-in-law, please send me the address of your dance club.
, I will bring someone to your door tomorrow to shoot the video."
"Okay, thank you Nuannuan."
Chen Xi didn't mention money, and neither did Zhang Nuannuan. Since we are all a family, it doesn't matter how much money we have.
"Don't blame me, brother, I don't care about her dance club at all."
Lin Ye took a sip of the tea Gao Jingwen had just poured and explained to himself.
"Sister-in-law, you are just too good to my brother. You see, you have spoiled my brother..."
"As a man, you just have to spoil him. If you spoil him bad, other women won't be able to stand him." Chen Xi conveyed the wrong reasoning.
"It seems to make sense..." Zhang Nuannuan looked at Gao Jingwen and caught Gao Jingwen's expectant eyes: "Do you also want the same treatment as my brother?"
"I don't even dare to think about it!"
Gao Jingwen felt the murderous look in his girlfriend's eyes and quickly changed his words.
"Humph, you react quickly."
Lin Ye looked at Gao Jingwen in astonishment, are all boys so humble when they are in love now?
It's terrible.
…
After lunch, Lin Ye returned to the villa and received a call from another couple.
"Mr. Lin, please save Xiaoqi!"
The call was from Li Xian. Li Xian's voice was very anxious. Lin Ye frowned. This pair of eloping mandarin ducks were caught?
But even if he is caught by the Xie family, the most they can do is take Xie Xiaoqi back. There is no need for Li Xian to be so anxious.
"Mr. Lin, the Xie family wanted to kill Xiaoqi. It was Mrs. Xie who personally gave the order. This news was secretly sent to Xiaoqi by Xiaoqi's father, so that Xiaoqi and I could escape from the country."
"Thank you for the order personally given by the old lady?"
Lin Ye's eyes darkened, and because of the old lady Xie's love for Xie Xiaoqi, even if Xie Xiaoqi eloped with Li Xian and embarrassed the Xie family, she would not kill her own granddaughter.
But since the news was sent by Xie Xiaoqi's father, and Xie Xiaoqi was allowed to escape from the country, it cannot be false.
"Lin...Mr. Lin, please, please save Xiaoqi."
"You two come to Raocheng now, and I will go and find out the situation."
