I don't know whether it was because of the conversation with his father or something else, but Lin Xiluo seemed to be deliberately avoiding Su Zhengliang these days. The two had no contact since they broke up on bad terms that night.
After dialing Su Zhengliang's number, Lin Xiluo heard the familiar cold voice of the person on the other side and said quietly, "Sorry, I was in a meeting just now and I only saw it now."
The clear voice said straight to the point, "Are you free tonight? I have something to tell you."
The corners of Lin Xiluoying's angry lips curved with a hint of bitterness, "I have to be busy until late today, or another day."
"Well, then give me a call when you are free."
"good."
After finishing the call with Su Zhengliang, Lin Xiluo called Lika again. No one answered the phone after ringing for a while. It was probably that this little guy was wandering around somewhere out of boredom.
Thinking that Li Sifan was by her side, Lin Xiluo continued to work with confidence.
********** It was past the off-duty time, and the empty high-rise office area was extremely quiet. The lights in the president's office were still on.
At night, the huge shadows formed by the tall buildings in S City, accompanied by the constantly changing neon lights of high-end shops, are both real and illusory, reflected in the silent interior.
Lin Xiluo finished handling the matters at hand, and suddenly received another call from Lika. The background of the call seemed a bit noisy, and Lin Xiluo couldn't hear what the other party was saying. After a while, he continued intermittently.
Understand what the other person means.
Lin Xiluo asked Li Sifan to take Lika to study at Lin's for a few days, and when he was free, he would take her to visit S City and the surrounding areas to learn about the local customs.
Now Lika had a sprained foot and had difficulty moving, and Li Sifan was afraid that taking her around would make it difficult for the foot injury to heal. So, he just drove her around in the car for a while and then sent her back to Lin's house early.
After all, Lika is a big girl with a lively nature and likes to be lively. Such a small accident not only ruined her good mood, but also delayed her schedule.
No, she was really bored, so she called Lin Xiluo and told her that she was almost at Lin's and she would let him take her out for a walk tonight no matter what.
Lin Xiluo put down the phone helplessly and sat in the office for a while. Guessing that Lika was about to arrive, he walked downstairs.
After staying at the gate for less than five minutes, the Lin family's private car came into view. When she noticed that the person driving the car was not Li Sifan, but Lin Yuanshi, Lin Xiluoying's angry brows showed a trace of unhappiness.
As soon as the car stopped, Lika opened the door and stepped out, ignoring her aching feet. She looked cute and cute in her casual outfit, "I never thought that a big CEO like you would come to greet me in person. I thought I'd just do it."
Sneaking into the office like this will surprise you!"
Lin Xiluo saw that Lika was still walking on a slight slope, so he stepped forward to support her and said jokingly, "When you think about our Miss Murray being injured, how can I, the CEO, have the nerve to let you come up to me on your own?"
A smile appeared on Lika's exotic face, and then she pretended to be serious and said, "Excuse me, President Lin, please come to greet me personally. Will coming to you now affect your work?"
Lin Xiluo shook his head nonchalantly and helped Lika walk inside, "It's okay, we're almost done."
Lika's green eyes rolled around and she smiled, "That's just right. I'm a little hungry too. When you finish your work, we will go out for dinner together. I heard you mentioned that there is a restaurant near here..."
"Silo."
Hearing this all-too-familiar voice, Lin Xiluo's pupils shrank slightly, turned around, and looked at the source of the voice.
Su Zhengliang stood a few meters away from himself and Lika, looking at him deeply.
Tonight, he was wearing a khaki cotton jacket and a dark blue knitted scarf, which made his already fair complexion even fairer.
A few complex emotions flashed across the deep eyes. Lin Xiluo suppressed the desire to hold him tightly in her arms and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"
Su Zhengliang walked up, raised his eyes slightly to look at Lin Xiluo, and said in a calm tone, "I guess you won't be able to eat on time when you are busy, so I made some for you." His narrow black eyes moved to Lika beside him, her eyes clear and moist.
Her nice voice was calm and calm, "Why don't you introduce your friends to me?"
Lin Xiluo let go of his hand on Lika's shoulder and simply introduced, "She is Lika Moray."
A friendly smile appeared on Qingjun's face, and Su Zhengliang nodded to Lika, "Hello, Miss Murray, I am Su Zhengliang."
Lika only knew that Lin Xiluo had a gay lover, but she did not know that that person was Su Zhengliang. Seeing him greeting her, she responded with a smile, "Hello Mr. Su, you must be Lin's friend?"
Su Zhengliang heard Lika say this, and Lin Xiluo stood beside him without correcting him. His beautiful eyes like a deep lake lowered slightly, "Yes."
Lika patted Lin Xiluo on the shoulder and said coquettishly, pretending to be jealous, "Lin, your friend is so kind to you. I really envy you for having such a friend."
Lin Xiluo didn't speak, he just nodded and smiled.
Faced with the seemingly intimate behavior between the man and woman and Linxiluo's neither salty nor cool attitude, Su Zhengliang suppressed the sadness in his heart, and the knuckles of his right hand holding the thermos bucket turned faintly white.
Immediately, he squeezed out a smile as if nothing had happened and handed the thermos bucket to Lin Xiluo, "I still have something to do at home, so I won't delay you."
The moment Lin Xiluo reached out to take the thermos bucket, his generous and warm palm subconsciously grasped the other person's cold fingertips, "Liang, thank you."
"Nothing, I'm leaving," Su Zhengliang quickly pulled out his hand, then turned and left.
Staring at the retreating figure with deep eyes, unspeakable complex emotions surged into Lin Xiluo's heart. After a while, he raised his deep voice and said to the car parked at the door, "Lin Yuan
, Miss Lika will go back with me, you can go."
The man in the car replied briefly, "Yes, Master."
He pulled Lika over and the two of them walked slowly towards the company. It wasn't until he was sure that Lin Yuan drove the car away that he asked, "How could Lin Yuan send you here, where is Li Sifan?"
"His mother was sick and went back temporarily, so Uncle Lin asked him to send me here."
Lin Xiluo pressed the elevator button, his handsome eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Try not to talk to him too much in the future."
Lika was a little confused by Linsilo's instructions. She nodded suspiciously, "I understand."
Waiting for the elevator in silence, Lika felt that the atmosphere was a bit dull. She didn't know what the other person was thinking, so she casually changed the subject, "By the way, Lin, I've been here for several days, why haven't I seen your lover yet?"
?”
"Su Zhengliang is my lover."
Lika's green eyes suddenly widened, and her bell-like voice was filled with surprise, "So it's him? I don't think the way he looks at you is like that between ordinary friends, but I don't dare to say anything nonsense. Since it is
So, why didn’t you tell me just now?”
"The elevator is here," Lin Xiluo avoided talking and pulled Lika in.
As the two of them walked into the elevator, a black figure flashed past the door of the group building and then disappeared into the night.
