morning.
Yang Chen and Lin Xia arrived at the magazine office.
Lin Xia grabbed Yang Zixi's ponytail and pulled her out of the office, intending to question her.
"Yang Zixi, are we still friends?"
"yes!"
"You are a friend, so why don't you leave me alone at home and leave first, letting a man you just met take care of me? Are you not afraid that he will take care of me... Are there any friends like you?"
"Oh, I really have something going on. And Director Yang is not a stranger. Don't you still want him to pretend to be your boyfriend? You should cultivate a tacit understanding in advance." Yang Zixi hugged Lin Xia's arm and acted coquettishly, "Besides, he Director Yang's conditions are not bad either. Didn't you say that he is young, handsome, capable, career-oriented, and motivated, and is a first-rate urban young man. I also want to create opportunities for you."
"Thank you. You should keep this opportunity to yourself in the future. I don't need it." Lin Xia gave her a roll of her eyes.
"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong, and I promise it won't happen again. Please forgive me..." Yang Zixi used the method of coquettishness and hugged Lin Xia for a while to beg for mercy.
"Okay, okay, stop dangling. Hum, I'll let you go this time. If there is another time, I will never let you go." Lin Xia snorted lightly. She is a very kind person, plus this There were no serious consequences this time, so I let her go for the time being.
"Thank you Lin Xia, I knew you were the best."
Yang Zixi thanked her and winked at her, "By the way, did you guys..." last night?
"No, nothing happened last night." Lin Xia interrupted her.
"Really? Don't be shy. We are good sisters. You can tell me anything and I will help you get justice." Yang Zixi said.
"Now that we know they are good sisters, why did we go there so early? Huh, Director Yang is not as unloyal as you. He is a gentleman and will not take advantage of others." Lin Xia said.
"He is too stupid to seize such a good opportunity..." Yang Zixi muttered to herself.
"What did you say? Why don't you know how to catch it?" Lin Xia looked at her suspiciously.
"It's nothing, I mean he has too little vision. He doesn't know how to catch such a good girl like Lin Xia, but she is still not a man." Yang Zixi said.
"That's called righteousness. Who is like you, who forgets his righteousness when he sees sex!" Lin Xia snorted.
come back to the office.
Yang Zixi came to Yang Chen and whispered: "Director Yang, didn't you take down Lin Xia last night?"
"No, Lin Xia slept like a dead pig yesterday. How could I be interested?" Yang Chen shook his head, "Even if I want to do that to her, I have to do it when she is awake, otherwise it would be too underhanded. .”
"Oh, you... why are you pretending to be a gentleman at this critical moment?" Yang Zixi had a look of hatred on her face, wishing she could fuck Lin Xia a hundred times on his behalf.
"Please, I don't think I have anything to regret. Why do I feel like you are more excited than me?" Yang Chen raised his eyebrows.
"No, I feel sorry for you! You don't know that a woman like Lin Xia looks carefree and doesn't seem to care about anything, but in fact she is very traditional at heart. As long as you take her down first, and then treat her well If you coax her, you will be able to embrace her beauty in the end." Yang Zixi quickly put away her emotions and explained to Yang Chen.
The progress of Yang Chen and Lin Xia was related to whether she could complete the task, so she was naturally very excited.
"Really, then I'd like to thank you first. But my goal is female celebrities, and other things will just go as they come." Yang Chen said with a smile.
"How can such a thing be allowed to happen naturally? Men should take the initiative and fight for it when it's time to fight for it." Yang Zixi encouraged, Yang Chen is not in a hurry, she is.
Time is running out!
"Okay, I got it. I will definitely take her down next time I have a chance." Yang Chen gave a perfunctory smile.
"Don't wait until next time. The sooner this happens, the better. Just tonight, I'll invite you to the bar. You must see the right time and act decisively. Fight!" Yang Zixi patted him on the shoulder and gave him a cheer. gesture and left quickly without waiting for him to express his stance.
Unfortunately, plans don’t change as quickly as they do.
Yang Zixi had good plans, but was disrupted by a phone call.
In the afternoon, Lin Xia received a call from her mother.
"Xia Xia, are you okay tonight?"
"What's wrong?"
"Do you still remember Aunt Liu who lives downstairs in our house?"
"The one who used to come to our house to play mahjong?"
"Yes, yes, that's Aunt Liu. I met your Aunt Liu when we were shopping today. I asked you about it. Your Aunt Liu's family has a nephew who is about the same age as you. I heard that the young man works in a bank... "
"Stop, stop, stop, Mom, what do you want to do again? Did you agree for me again and let me meet that man?"
"I haven't agreed yet. Didn't I ask you if you have time first?"
"No time! I have something else to do tonight!"
"What about tomorrow? Do you have time tomorrow? How about the weekend?"
"I don't have time tomorrow, and I don't have time on weekends...Mom, let me tell you the truth, I actually have a boyfriend."
"What, you have a boyfriend? It's true, you're not lying to us, are you?"
"It's true, I didn't lie to you!"
"Then why didn't you say it before?"
"I just talked with him. He's a new colleague in our company. We just met him not long ago and he's not stable yet. I don't want to wait until he's stabilized before I tell you."
"Then...when do you have time, can you bring it back and let us take a look?"
"I told you, it's not stable yet. When we settle down, I'll take it back for you to take a look at."
"Oh, it's not stable yet... How about we go to your company and let your dad and I take a sneak peek to see what that guy looks like?"
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. I'll take him back tonight and let you take a good look, okay?"
"Okay, okay, then your dad and I will get ready tonight. Remember to bring him back!"
"I know, I'll hang up if it's okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xia came to Yang Chen and secretly called him out.
"Director Yang, do you have time tonight? Can you do me a favor?" Lin Xiaheshi worshiped Yang Chen with his hands like a Bodhisattva, with a flattering look on his face.
"What's the matter? You tell me first, and then I'll see if I can help." Yang Chen did not rush to a conclusion.
"Can you come back home with me tonight and meet my parents? Please!" Lin Xia said.
"So urgent?" Yang Chen frowned.
"It's urgent. My mother is on the phone three times every two days, forcing me to go on a blind date every day. I'm almost bored to death by them. The sooner I solve it, the sooner I will be out of the sea of misery." Lin Xia sighed. "As long as you do this favor for me, I, Lin Xia, will have nothing to say about going under the knife or into the sea of fire."
"It's not that serious." Yang Chen smiled.
"So you agreed?" Lin Xia said with hope.
"Yeah." Yang Chen nodded.
"Really, that's great! Director Yang, thank you, I know you are the most loyal! I, Lin Xia, have no other merits but my loyalty. If you do me this favor, it is equivalent to saving my life. In the future We are friends of life and death." Lin Xia put her arms around Yang Chen's shoulders and patted her chest.
Because of this incident, Yang Chen and Lin Xia could only refuse Yang Zixi's invitation.
After get off work, Yang Chen drove Lin Xia to her parents' house.
Lin Xia's parents' home is in Niujie Street, Xicheng, near Fayuan Temple, which is considered the core area of the capital.
According to the housing market trend in Beijing, in a few years, the price of houses here can reach more than 100,000 yuan per square meter.
Between her parents' house and her own house in Chaoyang, Lin Xia's net worth is at least fifteen million, making her an invisible rich woman.
"Do your parents have any hobbies?" Yang Chen asked while driving on the road.
"Hobby? Does playing mahjong count?" Lin Xia said.
"Forget it. But I can't bring a pair of mahjong or a poster of the God of Gamblers to visit you. What if your parents think I'm a gambler and kick me out directly?" Yang Chen laughed.
"Hehe, that's true. Besides playing mahjong... Oh, I remembered. My dad usually likes to arrange flowers and plants, and my mom likes to have a drink or two when she has nothing to do." Lin Xia thought for a moment and said.
"Your mother likes to drink, what's your drinking capacity..." Yang Chen said.
"I'm also puzzled. My mother only had this good gene, but I haven't passed it on... Do you think I was picked up by them?" Lin Xia said with a smile.
"hehe……"
Yang Chen smiled. Lin Xia could joke about this kind of thing, but it was difficult for outsiders to comment.
"There is a flower and bird market over at Fayuan Temple. Let's go there first and give your dad a whole pot of flowers, so as to leave a good impression on them."
"You are still thoughtful. I will pay for the expenses. I can't ask you to help and pay out of your own pocket."
"No, we are considered friends. It is the first time a friend comes to visit us, so it is appropriate to bring some gifts."
Yang Chen drove to the flower and bird market.
…
the other side.
Yang Zixi got off work and took a taxi home. On the way, she suddenly received a call from Cheng Feng.
"Yang Zixi, come to Yese Bar, Lao Wu wants to see you for something."
"Wu Di is looking for me? Why doesn't he call me himself?"
"He couldn't lose his dignity and asked me to call you. Come quickly!"
After saying that, Cheng Feng hung up the phone directly.
Yang Zixi looked at her phone and then said to the taxi driver: "Master, let's go to the Workers' Stadium!"
…
Lin Xia's parents' house.
Yang Chen was like Matilda in The Killer Is Not Cold, holding a pot of orchids in her right hand and a bottle of red wine in her left hand as she came to visit.
"Ding dong!"
Lin Xia rang the doorbell and shouted through the door: "Dad, Mom, I'm back!"
squeak~
The door opens.
"Xia Xia, you're back!"
Father Lin appeared at the door together. Although he was talking to Lin Xia, he poked his head and looked at Yang Chen immediately.
If it weren't for Yang Chen's strong psychological quality, he might have become timid at this time.
Father Lin and Mother Lin are both about fifty years old. They look a little rich, and their clothes are no different from ordinary people.
Father Lin was still wearing an apron.
"Dad, Mom, this is my friend Yang Chen." Lin Xia hugged Yang Chen's arm and introduced.
"Uncle, aunt, hello!" Yang Chen greeted the two of them with a smile.
"Hello……"
"welcome……"
Father Lin and Mother Lin exchanged greetings subconsciously, but their eyes kept looking at Yang Chen.
"Uncle and aunt, this is my first time here, and I don't know what you like. I heard from Lin Xia that uncle likes to grow flowers, so I brought you a pot of orchids. Knowing that aunt usually likes to drink two glasses of wine, I brought you a pot of orchids. Bring me a bottle of wine." Yang Chen smiled.
"Xiao Yang, you said you are too outspoken. Just come and bring any gifts." Mother Lin said with a smile on her face.
"That's right, Xiao Yang, you are too polite, don't do it again!" Father Lin also laughed.
"It should, it should..." Yang Chen smiled.
"Xia Xia, don't just stand there. Go and pour water for others." Mother Lin said to Lin Xia again.
"Okay, can you let us in first?" Lin Xia forced a smile.
"Go in?"
"Oh, yes, yes, you see we are all just talking...I'm sorry, come in, come in."
"You guys sit down first. I have another dish in the kitchen. We can eat after we finish the fight."
Father Lin and Mother Lin quickly moved out of the way to let them enter the house.
Lin Xia brought Yang Chen to the living room and sat down at the dining table. There were already several plates of hot home-cooked dishes on the table.
A few minutes later, Father Lin and Mother Lin came out of the kitchen, and the food was served.
"Xiao Yang, I don't know if these dishes suit your taste." Mother Lin said politely.
"It's good. I like home-cooked food. I feel appetizing just by looking at it. Uncle, don't be too busy. These are enough." Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, everything is done. Xiao Yang, can you have some wine?" Lin's father sat down and asked Yang Chen.
"It's okay to drink less. I drove here today, so I can't drink too much. Let's wait for another day. When I come back another day, I will have a good drink with my uncle." Yang Chen said.
"That's right, drink less while driving and pay attention to safety." Father Lin said. "Xiao Yang, what do you do?"
"Xiao Yang and our daughter are colleagues, you see what you are asking." Mother Lin said.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot." Father Lin said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. Uncle, you and Lin Xia are from the same company, but we do different jobs. Lin Xia is an editor, and I am a photographer." Yang Chen said.
"Photography is a good job. It's an easy job. I heard you can make a lot of money," Lin's father said.
"Don't ask around. It's my first time here. Why are you asking me this?" Mother Lin glared at Father Lin. It was obvious that the mother-in-law was looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at him, the more she liked him.
Yang Chen's image is indeed very perfect in the eyes of women. Not only is he handsome, but he is also neatly dressed, which gives people a good first impression.
"It's okay, it's okay. I just joined the job and my current salary is five to six thousand. But in our line of work, you can also take some private jobs outside and help people take photos. After a month, you can earn more or less ten thousand yuan." ." Yang Chen smiled.
"More than 10,000, that's a lot, much better than our daughter!" Mother Lin was smiling and seemed very satisfied with Yang Chen's working conditions.
"Yes, yes, quite a few. Xiao Yang, how long have you known our Xia Xia?" Father Lin asked again.
"We haven't known each other for a long time, just..."
"A week, Yang Chen has been in the company for just over a week."
Lin Xia interrupted Yang Chen and added for him.
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't take long. We are all from the same company. We can get to know each other gradually in the future. Our Xiaxia people are very nice. You should get in touch with them more," Mother Lin said.
"That's right, get in touch more!" Lin's father nodded and said, "Xiao Yang, how old are you?"
"I'm two years younger than Lin Xia." Yang Chen said.
"It doesn't matter if you are two years younger. Don't young people nowadays say that there is no age gap between the two years old? Besides, two years is not much, so there is no gap." Mother Lin liked Yang Chen more and more as she looked at her, and said with a smile, "We also Stop just talking, eat and eat..."
"Yes, eat and eat, use your chopsticks quickly!"
…
the other side.
When Yang Chen was being interrogated by Father Lin and Mother Lin, Yang Zixi also arrived at the Night Bar.
As soon as she entered, she saw Wu Di chatting up a girl in red clothes.
"Hello, do you believe in love at first sight?"
"Are you crazy?" the girl in red said with disgust.
"What's going on?" At this time, a sturdy young man came from the side, glanced at Wu Di, and said to the girl in red.
"Husband, this man is crazy!" the girl in red said to the strong young man.
"I'm not sick..."
"What's going on? What do you want to do?"
Before Wu Di finished speaking, the strong young man grabbed his collar and asked fiercely.
A physical conflict was about to occur.
Cheng Feng and Shi Xiaomeng saw this and hurried over to help.
"Brother, I'm sorry. Listen to me, this friend of mine is mentally ill. Don't be the same as him."
"If he has a brain disease, let him go to the hospital. Why take him out?"
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Cheng Feng and Shi Xiaomeng kept apologizing to the strong boy and the girl in red.
Wu Di glanced around and suddenly saw Yang Zixi standing at the door. Without saying a word, he left the two of them and ran towards Yang Zixi.
Yang Zixi sneered, turned around and left the bar.
Wu Di immediately chased after him.
"Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, listen to my explanation, I just..."
"Okay, you don't need to explain to me."
"I didn't, I just..."
"I've seen it all, what explanation do you have? But next time, when you perform such a disgusting thing again, can you please stop calling me and ask me to enjoy it with you?"
"I didn't call you to ask you to come over..."
"Wu Di, why are you like this now! If you stay with crazy people like lunatics every day, you will become as disgusting as them!"
Yang Zixi didn't even have a chance to say a complete sentence to Wu Di. After sarcastic remarks at him, she turned around and left.
Wu Di chased after two steps and saw Yang Zixi walking faster and faster, so he had to give up and returned to the bar.
Seeing Wu Di come back, Cheng Feng explained to him: "Originally, I wanted to make Yang Zixi angry, but who knew you didn't live up to your expectations and made others laugh at you."
"Before I lose my mind, you'd better shut up!" Wu Di said with an expression on his face that no one should mess with me.
"But today's facts prove that she still has you in her heart." Cheng Feng said.
"Shut up!" Wu Did said.
"Stop, stop, let me get down to business. Can you help me pick up someone at the train station tomorrow?" Shi Xiaomeng said to Cheng Feng.
"Who should I pick up? I'll send the driver!" Cheng Feng said.
"My girl will arrive in the capital tomorrow!" Shi Xiaomeng called Shen Bing over to take care of him because his arm was injured.
"Girl...Chibi Maruko-chan?" Cheng Feng was startled.
Chibi Maruko-chan was the nickname he gave to Shi Xiaomeng’s girlfriend.
"Shen Bing!" Shi Xiaomeng corrected.
"Okay, boy, we'll hold on until the clouds clear and the moon shines!" Cheng Feng said with a smile.
"When will you come?" Wu Did said.
"Tomorrow morning at 10:15, West Railway Station!" Shi Xiaomeng said.
"Then I have to go! Let's do this. I'll pick you up first tomorrow and then go to the West Station to pick her up. I'll organize a big game in the evening and welcome the big party!" Cheng Feng said.
"Okay, don't be so polite. I'll send a message to Fatty now and ask him to book a room at the cashier..."
