After the crisis was resolved, there was no point for Lin Ze to stay any longer. In addition, although it was already midnight, in New York, a city that never sleeps, there is always the danger of being blocked by the police. If you are unlucky, it is inevitable. A period of racking one's brains to explain is not worth it,
Glancing back at Chen Ling, who had a slightly strange look on her face, Lin Ze squeezed out a comforting smile: "Is everything okay?"
"It's okay." Chen Ling shook her head,
"Then let's go. I hope I don't ruin your mood for making coffee." Lin Ze smiled bitterly and rubbed his nose.
When Chen Ling heard this, her expression was slightly strange. Just as she was about to say something, Hepburn, who was standing on their side, shouted,
"Hey Lin Ze, am I transparent?" Hepburn asked dissatisfiedly, moving directly in front of him,
When Lin Ze saw her blocking his path, he couldn't help but frown slightly: "I have helped you drive away the Green Goblin."
"I know, I was just about to thank you." Hepburn smiled,
"No, just don't trouble me in the future." Lin Ze lit a cigarette casually.
He was really a little afraid of this insidious and cunning woman. Every time he met her, something bad would happen. Lin Ze didn't even know whether she was involved in the kidnapping of Da Hongyi and Xia Shuzhu.
Lin Ze didn't want to be in contact with such a woman for even a minute.
When Hepburn heard what Lin Ze said, a strange look appeared on his delicate and beautiful face. He immediately raised his head and said: "There is a famous saying in China: Do good things to the end, send Buddha to the West, do you want to die without saving him?" ?”
"Isn't he already gone?" Lin Ze asked, "Besides, he said he would wait for one day, and then you Dex would set up a dragnet and kill him on the spot. Protecting your safety shouldn't be a problem."
"Wait a day." Hepburn raised the expensive watch on her wrist. "It was yesterday when he killed me, and it's already past twelve o'clock in the morning. Do you think I'm in danger now? I might be attacked by the incoming green enemy." Kill the devil."
"It's none of my business." Lin Ze rolled his eyes,
"You are so cruel." Hepburn said with a sad look.
"Back in Lhasa, I didn't see you being soft-hearted." Lin Ze teased,
"But I didn't want to kill you, I just wanted you to cooperate with me." Hepburn quibbled.
"Okay." Lin Ze waved his hand impatiently, "What do you want."
"Protect me for one more night," Hepburn said. "This night, my father will prepare the defense system for me, so I don't have to bother you then."
"You want to be a light bulb." Lin Ze said lukewarmly, "Tonight, I will have a candlelit night talk with this beauty. Don't you think you are in the way?"
"Compared with life safety, these are nothing." Hepburn was not embarrassed at all.
"But I'm not happy." Lin Ze frowned and said, "Hepburn, I have tolerated you again and again, so don't challenge my bottom line."
Seeing that Lin Ze was really angry, Hepburn couldn't help but darken her expression, and said in a slightly disappointed tone: "So I've made you impatient so much, then you can go, I won't annoy you anymore."
"goodbye."
Lin Ze nodded lightly and pulled Chen Ling out of the restaurant.
…
They had just experienced a fierce battle that was not life-or-death dangerous, but definitely unpleasant. The atmosphere between the two of them was a little stiff. Even the bright and beautiful night scene could not completely eliminate it. In order to break the deadlock, Lin Ze suddenly said: "I didn't scare you just now."
Chen Ling smoothed the black hair on her forehead and shook her head gently: "No." After a pause, she added, "But she must be very sad."
Lin Ze was slightly stunned when he heard this.
She, of course, refers to Hepburn. Lin Ze glanced at Chen Ling and said bitterly: "I never understand her."
"No matter how powerful her background is, she is just a woman after all, a woman abandoned by her fiancée." Chen Ling said meaningfully,
Maybe it's because we share the same problem, or maybe because as a woman, she can feel Hepburn's mentality delicately. Chen Ling couldn't help but say a few words,
Lin Ze smiled bitterly and said, "Are you mocking me for being a petty person?"
"No." Chen Ling shook her head vigorously, "You have already stood on the moral high ground by trying your best to help her resolve the crisis. Even if she is killed by the returning killer, it has nothing to do with you. After all, you don't owe her anything. , and helping her will put your life in danger."
"The more you say that, the more I feel that what I just did went too far." Lin Ze rubbed his nose and said helplessly,
Chen Ling smiled and said surprisingly: "I rented two bedrooms and one living room, which is actually enough for her to live with for one night."
"Would it be too shameful for me to go back like this?" Lin Ze asked back,
"It is indeed very beautiful." Chen Ling said with a smile, her charming eyes were soft,
She knew that the man in front of her was very kind, and he was softer than many men who thought they were kind and moral.
"Let's forget it." Lin Ze said seriously, "If I go back, the cold and ruthless image I just established will collapse in an instant."
"The wind is getting strong." Chen Ling said with a smile, "Decide quickly whether to turn back or go home."
",."
Lin Ze stopped, lit a cigarette and said, "I'll look back if you think you're dead."
Hearing this, Chen Ling solemnly stared at Lin Ze's face that was far from handsome, but extremely charming: "I think the man I am devoted to is a fascinating man."
"I'm blushing."
“Very cute.”
When he returned, Hepburn was squatting at the door alone and deserted,
Her delicate and charming face is rosy red, and you can even see collagen on her fragile skin, which is extremely fresh and tender.
Those watery eyes were staring ahead in confusion, but they were not focused at all.
She held her chin with both hands, waiting helplessly and lonely for something,
What are you waiting for?
When she saw Lin Ze coming, she stood up quickly. She was not disappointed as expected, nor did she think that Lin Ze was back and put herself in the active camp. The joy on her face was self-evident, and she walked happily towards Lin Ze: "Are you worried about me, so you came back to pick me up?"
"She thinks you are quite pitiful." Lin Ze pointed at Chen Ling, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?" Hepburn asked curiously and couldn't help but sneeze.
"Go to her house." Lin Ze said,
"Okay." Hepburn didn't have the consciousness to be a light bulb at all, so she agreed.
After returning home, Chen Ling took out two sets of spare sheets and quilts. The weather was cold. Even if the heating was turned on, she still needed to cover herself up with a quilt to keep warm. Since there were only two rooms, Chen Ling generously gave one to Hepburn. , then prepared a change of pajamas for Hepburn, and said with a smile: "We are about the same height, let's make do."
"No problem." Hepburn quickly took the pajamas and entered the bathroom alone.
Lin Ze took a look at Chen Ling's living environment. It was simple and fashionable. From the decoration alone, it could be seen that Chen Ling was a woman with great taste. Coupled with her outstanding hardware and software, how could such an excellent woman? He blindly looked at himself,
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Lin Ze sat on the soft sofa and smiled at Chen Ling who handed him the milk: "I'll sleep on the sofa."
"I knew you wouldn't let me sleep on the sofa." Chen Ling joked,
Lin Ze said with a straight face: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have pretended to be generous."
Chen Ling smiled and asked, "Do you want to watch TV?"
"If you don't want to read anymore, let's chat. I will return to China tomorrow." Lin Ze said,
"Well, okay." Chen Ling smoothed her hair, with a touch of reluctance on her beautiful face that smelled of dust.
The two of them were sitting close to each other, and Lin Ze couldn't keep his eyes from wandering around. He could only stay respectfully on Chen Ling's face and said with a smile: "I've almost made enough money."
"Yeah." Chen Ling had a hint of excitement in her eyes, "I expect to make enough by the end of the year."
Lin Ze did some rough calculations. That year, he would be twenty-seven and twenty-eight, while she would be thirty.
As a young literary and artistic young man, Brother Xiao Lin couldn't help but sigh once again that time is like a dog, gone forever and never come back.
"What are your plans after returning to China?" As soon as Lin Ze started speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
But after all, Chen Ling is a woman with high EQ and IQ, and she quickly relieved Lin Ze from the embarrassment: "Use two-thirds of the funds to buy a commercial shop, and use the rest to arrange your life. From now on, you can live on rent."
"It was a pretty good life back then." Lin Ze said with a smile,
Chen Ling smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
After a brief conversation, just when Chen Ling was about to bring Lin Ze some snacks, before she could get up, she froze.
Seeing her strange expression, Lin Ze couldn't help but look back curiously,
It didn't matter. A mouthful of pure white milk came out of his mouth, and he was furious on the spot.
