unexpected rain

Lin didn't ask Song Liyuan to wear formal attire for work, but it's another matter to go out to socialize. If he dresses too casually, it will appear that he doesn't take it seriously.So before going to the hotel, Lin Ji took Song Liyuan to buy a suit.

Song Liyuan is young and full of energy. When the summer and autumn are turning cold, putting him in a shirt and a coat can make him sweat. Although the boy in the navy blue striped suit in the mirror is quite tall and handsome, but his appearance is not yet perfect. After a while, he uncomfortably pulled his tie.

"Don't move, don't wrinkle." Lin Ji patted his restless hand, "Okay, he's handsome, let's go."

Song Liyuan reluctantly followed behind him, "Uncle Lin, I can't perform well dressed like this."

"Aside from eating, what else do you need to perform?" Lin Ji asked with a smile.

"I still want to help you drink." Song Liyuan said, "The clothes are so tight that I can't lift my arms."

Asking a half-grown child to help him stop drinking, Lin Ji felt that he was poisoning teenagers. He said: "How can you drink when you are a child? Just eat well."

"I can drink a lot, Uncle Lin." Song Liyuan said, "The reason why I got drunk last time was because they mixed red and white together. It was too high, so I accidentally got drunk."

"Okay, you, be careful I tell your dad this."

"You won't say it." Song Liyuan threw his arms around Lin Ji's shoulder with a smile, "You have loved me since I was a child."

"Let go, it's dead." Lin Ji pushed him away with a smile.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, after Lin and the others arrived at the hotel, they saw one of the people they were going to have dinner with today in the reception area of ​​the lobby - Zheng Huiping, the vice president of Hengrun Group.He was having a pleasant conversation with another man of similar age.

Lin Ji took Song Liyuan over to say hello: "Mr. Zheng, you are really early."

Zheng Huiping looked back at him, with a deeper smile on his face, "Boss Lin, long time no see!"

"Li Yuan, say hello to President Zheng." Lin Ji said.

What Song Liyuan hated the most since he was a child was having awkward chats with relatives he didn't know. The current situation is similar to that. He said stiffly: "Hello, Mr. Zheng."

Lin Ji added for him at the right time: "This is Song Liyuan, Mr. Song's son, who is doing an internship with me these few days."

"It was carved out of the same mold as President Song." Zheng Huiping nodded again and again, "You started practicing at such a young age?"

"Take advantage of the holiday to enrich yourself." Lin Ji said.

Song Liyuan whispered behind Lin Ji: "Uncle Lin, he said I look like my father, is he scolding me?"

Lin pinched Song Liyuan's thigh unobtrusively, Song Liyuan felt the pain and fell silent.

Lin Ji also noticed that Zheng Huiping's communication partner is also a wealthy businessman, but his company is in the pharmaceutical industry, and Lin Ji only met him at banquets.

"This is Yang Ren, the director of Huifu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and he was also my colleague 20 years ago." Zheng Huiping introduced.

"Director Yang, I'm Lin Ji, and I've known you for a long time." Lin Ji shook hands with him politely.

"I am the one who has admired Mr. Lin for a long time." Yang Ren said, "You have achieved such remarkable achievements at such a young age. It is truly admirable."

"You are too generous." Lin Ji said modestly.

Zheng Huiping said: "It's a coincidence that Yang Ren is also eating here today."

"My nephew and I are here today, and the nature of yours is not the same." Yang Ren said with a smile.

"That said, Mr. Lin and I have been partners for many years. Considering our age, I'm too embarrassed to take advantage of my brother. Is it enough to call me uncle?" Zheng Huiping said.

Lin blinked and said, "Uncle Zheng."

Zheng Huiping laughed, "It's only the three of us tonight, Lin Ji, the section chiefs of the Industry and Commerce Bureau can't come today due to an emergency, but I have already got the materials for signing, so let's not discuss business tonight. Eat well."

"Okay." Lin said.

Yang Ren looked towards the door of the hotel and waved, "Here it is!"

Zheng Huiping said, "Is your nephew here?"

"Yes." Yang Ren greeted him, "Shifang, did you just get off work?"

Shifang?

Lin suspected that he had heard it wrong, but then he heard the other party's deep and indifferent voice: "Well, I've been waiting for a long time."

It's Xiang Shifang's voice...

When Lin Ji turned his head, Xiang Shifang had already walked into the reception area. He was not dressed formally today, a striped shirt covered with gray knit and black slacks. Such a simple match seemed to melt a little His coldness made his handsomeness walk from the sky to the world.

Xiang Shifang saw Lin Ji, but his eyes stayed on him for a second longer than others.

Then came a series of greetings.When it was Lin Ji's turn, he was still in the joy of an unexpected encounter, and the rhythm of his speech became disorganized, he stretched out his hand to Xiang Shifang, "Hello, I am Lin Ji, nice to meet you. "

Xiang Shifang briefly shook hands with him, "I know you."

The implication is that there is no need to introduce yourself.

Lin quickly regained his senses, he scolded himself in his heart for being too unreserved, then adjusted his face, and said with a gentle smile, "Yes, Xiang and I are always high school classmates."

"This circle is really small, and capable people really hang out with the same people." Zheng Huiping sighed.

Lin Ji just smiled and said nothing.

He said in his heart, you are wrong, Xiang Shifang and I were really different in high school.

That's why he doesn't remember me...

Lin pulled Song Liyuan up from behind him, and introduced: "Liyuan, this is the president of Xiangshi Group, Xiang Shifang. Mr. Xiang, this is my assistant and the son of President Song Guangfeng, Song Liyuan."

Song Liyuan sized up Xiang Shifang's probing eyes without concealing it. This man looked like a celebrity, and he was the president of a group at a young age. No matter how you looked at it, it was unreal.

Lin Ji frowned, "Li Yuan."

Song Liyuan just thought of it and said, "Hello, Prime Minister."

Xiang Shifang only nodded, and he said to Yang Ren: "Uncle, can we go over?"

Yang Ren nodded, "Okay." But he and his old friend were chatting passionately, and he was still a little reluctant to part, "You are only three today?"

Zheng Huiping nodded.

"Otherwise, we can fight for a table." Yang Ren said, "You young people exchange experience, and we two middle-aged uncles catch up on the past, how appropriate."

"Okay!" Zheng Huiping beamed with joy.

Lin Ji keenly noticed that the corners of Xiang Shifang's mouth had dropped a little.

That's right, he doesn't like to be noisy, and it's definitely not a pleasant thing for him to sit at the same table with two...two half-lived people.

But on this occasion, it was the elders who made the suggestion, and Lin had no position to refuse. He could only look at Xiang Shifang with apologetic eyes, and said "sorry" with his mouth.

Xiang Shifang received it, and combined with his emotions at the moment, it is obvious why Lin Ji apologized.The moment his resistance appeared, Lin could immediately notice and comfort him. Should it be said that he watched his face, or was considerate?

Xiang Shifang didn't like to be seen through at a glance, but Lin had a kind of soft finger-wrapping softness, silent, non-aggressive insight, which couldn't arouse his vigilance, but actually calmed his unhappiness.

Sitting at the same table with Lin Ji should not be bad.

So Xiang Shifang also nodded, "According to what you said."

In the box, Song Liyuan went to the toilet, Yang Ren and Zheng Huiping sat down and started "20 years ago".Since Lin is next to Xiang Shifang, Xiang Shifang's expression is indifferent, and Lin Ji's heartbeat is getting faster and faster.

Xiang Shifang agreed to join the table, and Lin only thought that he didn't want the elders to come down from the stage, so he wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he said, "How is work recently?"

"Busy." Xiang Shifang said concisely.

Lin remembered the bidding at the last banquet, and Xiang Shifang won a project, and he was probably busy with it during this time.

It has to be said that Xiang Shifang is quite good at chatting.

Although he himself does not like to chat.

However, Xiang Shifang's work scope is outside of Lin Ji's domain, so he changed his direction, "Since Yang Shushi is your uncle, then... his son is Yang Zeyi?" Lin Ji was also impressed by this man .

"Well, you know him?" Xiang Shifang glanced at him.

"He's your cousin. He's from the same high school. I've met him a few times." Lin Ji said.

How many times have you met in high school to remember now?Xiang Shifang was suspicious, and then he understood because it was his cousin.Lin seems to remember all the people related to him very clearly.

I'm both very attentive to me.Xiang Shifang came to a conclusion.

"How is Yang Zeyi developing?" Lin Ji asked casually.

"Study management abroad." Xiang Shifang said:

At this time Song Liyuan came out. He even washed his face, his sleeves were wet and his tie was messed up.

Lin beckoned him over and said helplessly, "Can't you take off your coat?"

Song Liyuan looked indifferent.

Lin Ji grabbed his tie, dragged him to the front, and then tidied it up for him.

"Take it easy!" Song Liyuan yelled.

Lin Ji: "Don't bark."

This scene was watched by Xiang Shifang.

Since Lin tied the tie and smoothed the collar for that man, his fingers were flexible and his movements were delicate, the relationship between them seemed to be very close, unlike superiors and subordinates.

Because this is the president's son?Xiang Shi thought expressionlessly, or in other words, Lin Ji is such a person who cares about everyone very much.

Xiang Shifang lowered his eyes, suppressing the fleeting displeasure.

It is impossible for several men to eat together without drinking. Since the two elders gave up their stable jobs in state-owned enterprises to start their own businesses, it is naturally impossible for the two elders to abandon the young people and talk to themselves. Praises and exhortations, during this period, it is inevitable to drink a cup full.

Xiang Shifang noticed that Lin had only had two drinks, and Song Liyuan snatched the rest.

Song Liyuan said: "Uncle Lin... Boss Lin doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, he'll get drunk after just one bottle, I'll take his place."

Lin Ji also smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I really can't handle alcohol, so please be merciful."

Even so, Lin Ji only drank tea afterwards, even if he wanted to drink another cup, Song Liyuan refused.

"Drink less." Lin Ji whispered to Song Liyuan.

"Small meaning." Song Liyuan said.

Zheng Huiping was a little drunk, and laughed boldly, "The young people nowadays are really amazing, I can't drink you at the wine table for decades!"

Xiang Shifang looked at the two of them, he took Lin Ji's quilt and poured a glass of wine, filled it up for himself, raised his glass and said, "Toast to you."

Lin took it and was about to clink glasses with him, Song Liyuan snatched it with ease, touched it perfunctorily, and drank it in one gulp.

Lin Ji: "..." I want to drink this cup!

Xiang Shifang's eyes darkened slightly, and no matter how Ren Lin talked to him afterwards, his answer would not exceed two words.

With such a drinking method, Song Liyuan was drunk as expected.

Since Lin was responsible for taking him home and helping him to the door of the hotel, he was exhausted, and the two elders were also drunk, and they could walk out with their arms around each other. Xiang Shifang was still sober, but he It didn't mean to come up to help.

Song Liyuan reeked of alcohol, and Lin could understand that Xiang Shifang was slightly obsessed with cleanliness and didn't want to touch him.

What he didn't know was that Xiang Shifang was following him slowly, and he could see his every move.

The strenuous steps, the close body of the two, and Lin Ji's arm around Song Liyuan's waist.

I don't know if it was the same way when Lin Ji helped him home when he was drunk last time.

Some kind of inexplicable irritability burned, Xiang Shifang took a big step, and when he passed Lin Ji, he heard Song Liyuan's vague words: "...Do you like me?"

Lin Ji said in a coaxing tone, "I like it."

Xiang Shifang frowned, and walked faster.

Lin Ji's eyes subconsciously followed his back, and shouted: "Phase..."

The doorman brought Lin Ji's car over first, while Xiang Shifang was still waiting.

After Lin put Song Liyuan into the car, he came out and said to Xiang Shifang, "Can you drive?"

Xiang Shifang glanced at him, still concise: "Driver."

Lin nodded and said, "Next time, let's go out to the concert together. It just so happens that Hai En will be touring Yong City at the end of the month."

Xiang Shifang said, "No time."

He refused so directly, Lin Ji was stabbed coldly, and looked at him helplessly, "This, this is it...then when you have time..."

Lin lowered his head, his clothes were messed up because of the support all the way just now, matching with his expression at this time, he looked extraordinarily lonely.

Xiang Shifang pursed his lips tightly, wondering if it was because his unhappiness had accumulated to the peak, and now that unknown emotion seemed to be about to explode.

His tone was also fluctuating with impatience, "I will consider it."

Lin looked up happily, his emotions were so easy to control, he became happy again, and said, "Then I'll wait for the result of your consideration."

Xiang Shifang hummed, strangely, Lin Ji's cheerful tone seemed to relieve the pressure on the balloon that was about to burst in his heart, and the breath was slowly released, and he gradually calmed down.

After getting in the car, Xiang Shifang couldn't understand why he had such emotional ups and downs.

He may be a little drunk.
