The canary of the reborn paranoid boss is so delicate

"Well, I don't know much about this. I just heard some gossip." Su Mei said.

"Gossip? What gossip?" Xu Yan was curious.

Su Mei said: "Chen Ruowei is two years older than Lin Xiao. I heard that when she was in high school, she secretly made a secret promise to Lin Xiaofang and confessed to her several times."

"Then what?" Xu Yan asked.

"No more." Su Mei said.

"No more? It's over?" Xu Yan thought to herself, what kind of gossip is this? It had nothing to do with the level of gossip he had in mind.

Su Mei said: "That's all. Chen Ruowei went abroad to study after graduating from high school and hasn't come back yet. As for her relationship with Lin Xiao, I'm afraid it's just a matter of shaving one's head and choosing one."

"Are you worried about what happened between the two of you?" Su Mei asked: "If you are so worried, why don't you just ask Lin Xiao directly?"

Xu Yan said: "Lin Xiao said he was not familiar with her."

"You don't believe it?" Su Mei asked.

Xu Yan said: "I believe, I'm just a little curious, because I haven't seen any girl be so natural to Lin Xiao."

Chen Ruowei's attitude towards Lin Xiao was as if he was very familiar with Lin Xiao, even though Lin Xiao did not respond to her greeting.

But she acted as if she knew what kind of character Lin Xiao was and she was tolerating him unconditionally.

It gave Xu Yan an indescribable sense of alienation.

"Oh, by the way, the Chen family seems to be having a happy event recently. I wonder if Chen Ruowei will return to China." Mu Qing said suddenly.

"What happy event?" Xu Yan asked curiously.

"I heard that the eldest young master of the Chen family is getting engaged." Mu Qing said.

"Well, I heard about it too. The invitation should be sent in two days." Jiao Yanan said.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really don't know what the Qi family thought about marrying their daughter to a scumbag like that." Su Mei obviously also knew.

"Qi family?" Xu Yan asked.

"Yes, Qi Xinyue," Su Mei said.

Xu Yan knew who Qi Xinyue was, but she didn't know that it was because of this marriage that Qi Xinyue threatened her.

"Is the eldest young master of the Chen family a scumbag?" Xu Yan asked.

Su Mei said: "Tsk, the best among scum. Changing women is like changing clothes. His uncle has entered the entertainment industry. He is a bad old man in his fifties and has ruined many ignorant girls."

After she finished speaking, she sighed again and said, "Oh, but marriage is not about love. What you care about is profit, and everything else is secondary."

"Why did the Qi family marry the Chen family?" Xu Yan asked.

Su Mei said: "Although Young Master Qi is a bastard, his father and grandfather are very powerful. Although the Qi family's money cannot be compared with that of your family, Lin Xiao, it is still one of the best in Haicheng."

"If Qi Xinyue doesn't agree, can the engagement still happen?" Xu Yan asked.

Su Mei said: "It doesn't matter whether we agree or not. A family like ours has unlimited material advantages, but there are many things that we can't do anything about."

We soaked in hot springs at the clubhouse, had dinner, and then dispersed.

Su Mei drove the car by herself, and she insisted on sending Xu Yan home, saying that she wanted her to see her driving skills.

Xu Yan didn't refuse, got into the passenger seat, and called the driver to ask him not to pick her up.

After getting in the car, she fastened her seat belt and started the car. Su Mei's skills were really good and the car drove smoothly.

The main reason Xu Yan agreed to take the car was because she and Su Mei were the only two people in the car.

After the car drove for a while, Su Mei said, "Have you taken the driver's license test?"

Xu Yan said: "I passed the exam, but I haven't mastered it yet."

"Then do you want to try it now? I'll park on the side of the road and you drive." Su Mei said.

Xu Yan quickly refused: "I thank you for your trust, but I don't trust myself. Besides, it's dark now. Safety first."

"Okay, I'll practice again when I have time." Su Mei said.

Xu Yan nodded, and after a while, she hesitated and said, "Have you ever heard your brother talk about Lin Xiao's past?"

"Huh? What happened to Lin Xiao in the past? What happened in the past?" Su Mei asked.

Xu Yan said: "It's about his parents."

Su Mei was confused: "Why don't you ask him directly?"

Xu Yan said: "It's hard to ask about this kind of thing. I'm afraid it will arouse his sadness."

Su Mei gave Xu Yan an "I understand" expression, and then said: "Actually, I don't know very well. I only know that Lin Xiao's parents passed away when he was five years old."

"Died one after another?" Xu Yan asked.

Su Mei nodded: "Well, the funerals were all held together. I was too young at the time and can't remember clearly. I still heard my dad and the others talk about it occasionally and heard a bit about it."

"Is it an illness or an accident?" Xu Yan asked.

Su Mei shook her head: "I don't know, it must have been an accident. If it was an illness, what kind of illness would it have taken for us to die together?"

Xu Yan lowered her head and looked at the phone in her hand.

Su Mei glanced at her out of the corner of her eye, and then said, "I think what you should be concerned about now is not Lin Xiao's parents, but the Supreme Emperor of the Lin family."

Xu Yan raised her head and faced Su Mei: "The Supreme Emperor? Are you talking about Lin Xiao's grandfather?"

"You haven't seen him before, have you?" Su Mei exclaimed.

Xu Yan nodded: "I've seen it before."

"He didn't do anything to you, right?" Su Mei asked.

"No, we just chatted for a few words." Xu Yan avoided the important and took the easy.

However, her answer surprised Su Mei: "We only chatted for a few words. With your tone of voice, those who didn't know would have thought that you were just chatting with him."

"Why, you seem to have a problem with him?" Xu Yan saw something was wrong with Su Mei.

Su Mei pursed her lips and said, "How can I have any objection to this old man? I can't avoid him. You have studied history and know the feudal system of feudal society."

"Mr. Lin, that is a typical feudal thought living in modern society. He is serious and old-fashioned. He believes that women should stay at home to care for their husbands and children, and deal with major marriage matters, parents' orders, and matchmakers. The elders I was most afraid of meeting when I was a child. It’s him who, when he looks at you, feels frightened in his heart. I won’t say anything anymore, and my skin is getting goosebumps.”

Xu Yan was noncommittal: "Is it that exaggerated? He is not your biological grandfather."

Su Mei said: "When my grandfather Lin Xiao's grandfather was young, we worked hard together. He was his younger brother. Later, my grandfather established his own business and developed. He still followed his former eldest brother.

Every time their party was over and my grandfather came home, he would tell me that girls should look like girls. I wondered if they had traveled from ancient times. "

Su Mei looked deeply hurt.

Xu Yan cannot understand her pain because she has never experienced it. Although the meeting with Lin Jinxuan ended on bad terms.

However, it was not as serious as Su Mei said, but Lin Jinxuan's contempt for her was real.

"I think the most difficult time for you to be with Lin Xiao is probably the old man." Su Mei cast a pitiful look at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan's expression was calm and she was not afraid. She said, "It's okay. Lin Xiao said that he will take care of it."

Su Mei held the steering wheel with one hand and extended a hand to give Xu Yan a thumbs up.

A smile appeared on Xu Yan's face, and just at this moment, the phone rang.

Caller ID: Lin Xiao.

Xu Yan swiped to answer: "What's wrong?"

"Should I pick you up?" Lin Xiao asked.

Xu Yan said: "No, I'm back. The one Su Mei gave me will be here soon."

"Well, have you eaten?" Lin Xiao asked.

Xu Yan said: "After eating, you haven't eaten yet, right?"

Lin Xiao told the truth: "No."

Xu Yan asked: "You haven't gotten off work yet?"

Lin Xiao said: "It's time to get off work. I'll be home soon."

"Then you can eat it when you get back." Xu Yan said.

"I don't want to eat alone." Lin Xiao said.

Xu Yan couldn't help but chuckle. She wanted to say something coquettish, but she thought she was in someone else's car and there was a pair of eyes watching her next to her.

He just said: "Then wait for me, I'll hang up first." After saying that, Lin Xiao hung up the phone without waiting for an answer.

Su Mei saw her hanging up the phone and said, "I finally know why Lin Xiao likes you."

Xu Yan turned her head to look at her and asked, "Why?"

"Because you are special." Su Mei said.

"Special?" Xu Yan didn't understand.

Su Mei said: "If Lin Xiao is an ice cube, you are the ray of sunshine that melts the ice cube."

The car stopped at the door of the villa. Xu Yan got out of the car and saw Lin Xiao standing at the door. There was also a Rolls-Royce parked next to him.

Xu Yan glanced at Lin Xiao and did not walk over immediately. Instead, she turned back and said to Su Mei in the car: "Drive carefully on the way back."

"Don't worry, we'll make an appointment when you have time." Su Mei said.

After Su Mei's car drove away, Xu Yan turned around and walked towards Lin Xiao.

She walked up to Lin Xiao, stretched out a hand, took one of Lin Xiao's hands, and walked into the villa while saying, "Why don't you go in?"

"I just arrived." Lin Xiao said.

"Really?" Xu Yan asked suspiciously. The temperature of Lin Xiao's body wrapped in the cold air was obviously not something that could be contaminated just after arriving.

Lin Xiao insisted on his statement: "Yes."

"Okay, then go in quickly." Xu Yan said. She didn't intend to expose Lin Xiao. This was a little fun of life.

After another two months, the weather gradually warmed up. Xu Yan's work has also been implemented. She will not go to Lin Xiao's company, nor to any subsidiary of Lin Group.

Xu Yan went to an advertising company to work as a planner. The company was not large in scale, and there were only a dozen people including the boss, all of whom were young people. The oldest was only 31 years old.

Xu Yan had no experience and was not very familiar with her major, but before looking for a job, she gained some professional knowledge.

With her outstanding appearance, eloquent responses, and eloquent emotional intelligence, she was successfully admitted.

Although the monthly salary is not as much as the pocket money Lin Xiao gave her, Xu Yan is very satisfied.

This job was hard-won, not just during the interview, but also persuading Lin Xiao, which was the most important thing.

Lin Xiao originally didn't agree with anything, but even if he agreed, he went directly to his company.

But Xu Yan didn't agree. It wasn't that she was being pretentious, but that she knew that with her own abilities, she wouldn't be able to join the Lin Group.

In order to get Lin Xiao to agree, she used affection (playing coquettishly and pretending to be pitiful) and reason (coercion and inducement) to finally get Lin Xiao to nod.
