Lin Yuxi was stunned.
This was the first time someone said this to her.
"I'm okay. It's not a problem. Anyway, there's everything out there. It's nothing to worry about if you hear too much. I'm afraid of you..."
"Don't worry if you don't bother me."
Tan Yu looked a little unnatural, and he didn't dare to look at her directly, so he looked away from her eyes slightly and looked at the tip of her nose.
"Sorry, I actually came here on purpose today. I heard Xingchen when he called you."
Lin Yuxi understood the implication of these words. She originally thought that Tan Xingchen was a hot-headed matchmaker, but she didn't expect that Tan Yu had such intention, and now he made it clear.
So she was immediately embarrassed.
Tan Yu seemed even more nervous than she was. He put his fist against his nose and cleared his throat, looking away.
The temperature in the restaurant was very high. Lin Yuxi was wearing a small milky white cashmere cardigan. The texture looked light and soft.
Her hair was tied behind her ears, revealing a delicate and fair face. She was hugging her coat and holding her mobile phone in her hand.
The atmosphere was awkward and subtle.
When Zhou Yanjing came in, this was what he saw.
His eyes paused on Lin Yuxi for half a second, then glanced at the man standing next to her, and then back again.
Staring at Lin Yuxi's red earlobes, her eyes darkened slightly.
"What are you doing here, working part-time as a doorman in a restaurant after work?"
Only then did Lin Yuxi and Tan Yu see him.
And Jiang Nan came in behind him.
Lin Yuxi looked away, not even bothering to say hello.
"Yuxi? Tan Yu?" Jiang Nan was surprised to see them, "You guys come here to eat too?"
Tan Yu and them were classmates, but not as close as Song Yunfan, Shi Tang and others to Zhou Yanjing. He simply exchanged greetings: "What a coincidence."
Zhou Yanjing was absent-minded, staring at Lin Yuxi who ignored him with unpredictable eyes.
Jiang Nan said: "Yan Jing was afraid that my knee injury would leave scars, so he helped me make an appointment with the best repair expert in the United States. I happen to have an appointment here today."
Lin Yuxi acted as if she hadn't heard anything and kept looking in the direction of the bathroom, waiting for someone.
Mr. Zhou was probably used to being sought after by others, so he was not satisfied with her ignoring her. Lin Yuxi didn't want to talk to him, and he still wanted to find a sense of presence.
"You are becoming more and more rude. You see me and don't even say hello?"
Lin Yuxi finally turned around and glanced at him: "Why do you say hello? I'm already very polite without hitting you."
Tan Yu and Jiang Nan were stunned for a moment.
To be honest, although Zhou Yanjing looks casual and casual, and often smiles when talking to others, no matter how well he plays with him, no one dares to be too presumptuous in front of him.
No one dared to talk to Zhou Yanjing like this.
Song Yunfan didn't dare, and neither did Shi Tang.
Zhou Yanjing pulled his lower lip when he heard this, and his cold voice became much gentler: "So fierce. What do you dislike about me?"
Lin Yuxi said: "I don't like you when I see you."
Zhou Yanjing laughed angrily, reached out to grab her wrist, and pulled her away from Tan Yu to him. He lowered his eyelids lazily and looked at her: "Then take a few more looks until you like what you see."
"...Problem!"
At this time, Yu Jiaxiao and Tan Xingchen came out of the bathroom, squeezing each other. Seeing the two extra people at the door, Tan Xingchen shouted in surprise: "Sister Jiang Nan."
She has admired Jiang Nan since she was a child and likes to run behind Jiang Nan. However, she is four or five years younger than Jiang Nan. It's just that the sisters in Jiang Nan's circle don't like to play with her as a child.
Jiang Nan pursed her lips and stared at the tug and pull between Zhou Yanjing and Lin Yuxi. When she heard the voice, she calmed down and put on a smile: "You and your brother are here to eat?"
"No, I came here with Sister Yuxi."
Jiang Nan paused and asked with a smile: "When did you and Yuxi get on such a good terms?"
Tan Xingchen had a lot of good intentions, but few of them were sincere. Only then did he realize that she and Jiang Nan were originally on the same side, but now that she was so familiar with Lin Yuxi, she seemed to be a traitor.
Done! She should have been hiding in the bathroom just now!
Tan Xingchen felt a little guilty: "Sister Yuxi often took care of me when I was in the hospital..."
Yu Jiaxiao noticed her sway, and said coldly to the side: "Idiot! Aren't you insisting on joining us?"
"I..." Tan Xingchen opened his mouth, looked at Jiang Nan, and then at Lin Yuxi. It was the first time in his life that he encountered such a Shura field, and he didn't know what to do.
Lin Yuxi said: "You don't have to be so embarrassed. It's your freedom how to make friends and what kind of friends you make. As an adult, you should at least learn to be responsible for your own actions."
She is not a child, but she still insists on forming a clique, "If she plays with me, you are not allowed to play with her."
He pestered her to eat together every day, but why didn't he dare to admit it when he was in front of Jiang Nan?
Besides, Jiang Nan doesn't necessarily think that her little crush is very important. Tan Xingchen has been hospitalized for so long, how many times has she visited?
Lin Yuxi took her wrist out of Zhou Yanjing's palm and called Yu Jiaxiao: "Let's go."
Before Yu Jiaqiao left, he deliberately put his face in front of Tan Xingchen, snorted heavily and said, "Goodbye!"
Lin Yuxi walked away neatly, without even looking back. However, there were four people left, and three pairs of eyes were watching her leaving figure.
One is eager and the other is hesitant to speak.
Zhou Yanjing watched Lin Yuxi's back disappear from the door, and looked away with an unreadable expression.
He looked at Tan Yu, half-smiling, but the thin smile did not reach his eyes, and his brown eyes only had a light and cold background:
"Since when have you become so familiar with my wife?"
Tan Yu knew what to say so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Lin Yuxi: "Xingchen has been very attached to Yuxi recently. I met her a few times when I went to pick her up, but I don't know her very well."
"That's it." Zhou Yanjing said casually, "You don't need to be too familiar with her."
The second half of the sentence seems to have a meaning.
Jiang Nan said at this time: "Yan Jing, Dr. Smith has arrived, let's go in."
Dr. Smith arrived in China for the first time today, and along with his student and assistant, Jiang Nan discussed the surgical plan with him at the table.
Zhou Yanjing sat back in a chair, taking only two puffs of a cigar, and holding the rest between his fingers. He held his temples with his hands, absent-mindedly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Yuxi's skin is very thin. When she blushes, her skin will turn a thin pink color, a very shallow layer.
But the earlobes are different.
Her earlobes turned red, and the color was like luscious rouge, which attracted Zhou Yanjing to always like to hold her in his mouth and tease her, but they were so tender and sensitive that he would moan whenever he touched her.
She has a soft nasal sound when she hums, which is very delicate. While arousing people's desire for protection, it also arouses a deeper desire for abuse.
Zhou Yanjing felt very uncomfortable.
Why is she blushing in front of other men?
When Lin Yuxi received the call, she had already finished taking a bath and lay down to rest. She was woken up just as sleepiness was brewing.
Seeing that the caller was Zhou Yanjing, he muttered: "Weird."
I called her suddenly in the middle of the night.
She picked up: "What are you doing?"
Zhou Yanjing asked: "Why are you blushing?"
"Ah?" Lin Yuxi's head was full of questions at first, and she subconsciously raised her hand to touch her cheek.
Then she realized something. She sat up from the bed and looked around. While scanning every corner of the ceiling, she tightened the skirt of her pajamas with her hands. She frowned and asked aggressively: "You are installing surveillance in my house." Already?"
"Am I that perverted?" Zhou Yanjing snorted, "Why were you blushing when you were in the restaurant just now?"
Lin Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief and almost broke out in a cold sweat.
Even if he's not a pervert, he's just not a normal person if he calls me specifically to ask such a non-nutritious question.
"If you are too busy in the middle of the night, can you go out and help the sanitation workers sweep the streets?" People who have trouble sleeping will be really angry if they are woken up. Lin Yuxi said angrily, "I was just about to fall asleep."
"Answer my questions before going to bed." Zhou Yanjing was very concerned, "What did Tan Yu tell you?"
"Crazy!" Lin Yuxi hung up the phone again.
…
The next day, Lin Yuxi got off work early and came out of the hospital. She was about to go to the supermarket to buy some groceries when she saw Lincoln parked under a tree on the roadside.
The driver in a black suit stood beside the car and bowed respectfully to her from a distance.
Lin Yuxi recognized that it was the Zhou family's driver, who usually followed Zhou Qizhen.
But why did Zhou Qizhen come to the hospital to wait for her?
Lin Yuxi walked over and the driver opened the door. She bent down and met a smiling face.
"grandmother?"
"Oh my dear grandson, grandma almost misses you!"
The seventy-nine-year-old old lady of the Zhou family was sitting in the car. She was wearing a buttoned Song brocade mink coat on her thin body. She looked noble and kind.
There was a smile all over the wrinkles on her face, and she stretched out her hand towards Lin Yuxi: "Come up quickly, it's so cold outside!"
