Chapter 29: Chapter 29

Zhong Lin owed too much debt in the past few years, and it must be a bit hard to pay it back now. He was so tired that he didn't catch up with breakfast the next day.

He thought he was the last to wake up, but later found out that Zhou Yijin and Jiang Lian woke up later than him!

"Is something wrong? I haven't heard back yet." Zou Huasheng took the Qiaofen handed over by the waiter, and said to Yan Zhengming beside him while wiping the club, "Why don't you call and ask? "

They had the impression that Jiang Lian had never had the habit of sleeping late, and he went back so early last night, he was single, and unlike Zhong Lin and Yan Zhengming, he had a night life or something, so he shouldn't be sleeping until midnight, right?

Zhong Lin was also worried that Zhou Yijin drank too much last night and was not feeling well today. He was about to pick up his mobile phone to make a call, but Yan Zhengming said, "Here we are."

Several people followed the prestige and saw that Jiang Lian was climbing down the spiral staircase not far away.

Behind him was Zhou Yijin, who was listless.

Zou Huasheng joked: "Hey, Mr. Jiang, why don't you pretend to be a gentleman today?"

Jiang Lian didn't wear glasses today.

The atmosphere has completely changed.

Zhong Lin thought to himself, no wonder Yan Zhengming always teases him like a wolf with a big tail, and Jiang Lian has a face that looks like he is playing hard.

Wearing glasses is not to prevent blue light, but to make yourself look more mature and stable.

After all, in the business field, compared with a flirtatious playboy, a calm and steady personality is indeed more attractive to people.

"I accidentally broke it in the shower last night." Jiang Lian is also a master who can lie without changing his face.

Just as Zhou Yijin was about to take his seat, when he heard his words, he stumbled and turned to Zhong Lin. After taking his seat, he couldn't help but sneak a glance at Jiang Lian. Who would have thought that Jiang Lian was also looking at him, his eyes There was an intriguing smile hidden in it.

Zhou Yijin: "..."

Zhong Lin was pouring hot water for him, and didn't notice the eye contact between them. When he looked up again, both of them had returned to normal.

"Drink a cup of hot water to warm your stomach." Zhong Lin handed him the water. Seeing that his face was not looking well, he asked with concern, "Is it a headache?"

Zhou Yijin shook his head: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't wake up."

"Then go take a nap after dinner." Zhong Lin said to Yan Zhengming and the others, "How did you arrange this afternoon?"

Lin Xiao, who was dozing off in the corner of the sofa, was the first to say, "I don't want to climb the mountain."

Zou Huasheng was the second to express his opinion: "I'm not interested in the scenery on the mountain either."

Jiang Lian suggested: "Then let's go play in the water."

The hotel comes with many water entertainment projects.

You can go diving and surfing, and you can also drive a speedboat to see the scenery farther away.

"That's fine." Yan Zhengming said excitedly, "Honey, let's go to the sea to see the fish, shall we?"

There are not enough fish in the house to see what is going on, and you have to go to the sea to see the fish.

Zhong Lin reminded him: "Didn't you say last night that you would go back early today?"

Before going to bed last night, Yan Zhengming said that he wanted to invite everyone to his house for dinner today.

The babysitter is off on weekends, and Aunt Lin is the only one at home, so she must be too busy.

"We don't play for so long, we will go home after playing for a few hours." He turned his head and said to everyone, "Go to our place for dinner tonight, Zhong Lin and I have moved to a new house and haven't treated guests yet. Let's add some popularity."

He said to Jiang Lian again: "Lend us your chef tonight."

Jiang Lian: "You are really enough. If you invite me to dinner, I have to bring my own chef. There is no such thing as you."

"Just have fun, it's the first time I went to my new home, and I didn't ask you for a housewarming gift or anything." Yan Zhengming simply brought shamelessness to the extreme.

Zou Huasheng couldn't listen anymore, and joined the battle: "You just informed me now, where can I buy you a gift in the wilderness?"

"Darling, we also accept money transfers here. Wechat and Alipay are all acceptable. If the amount is too large, you can also choose mobile banking."

Zou Huasheng gave him a pair of rolling eyes: "You are so stingy that Grandet can't compare to you in this world."

Yan Zhengming retorted: "I can't help it either. I'm a man with a family, so I naturally have to be more careful. Unlike you, the whole family is not hungry when one person is full, so few are so fresh and refined."

Zou Huasheng: "Fuck!"

Zhong Lin covered his face with his right hand, and made a gesture of rejection with his left hand: "Please, don't take me."

He was so afraid of being beaten!

What a debt!

Jiang Lian: "Yan Zhengming, you will always be No.1 on the Shameless leaderboard, I really admire you."

Yan Zhengming cupped his fists: "Thank you, thank you."

Jiang Lian: "..."

A few people played around in the entertainment room for a while, and then went to the hotel restaurant for brunch.

After lunch, both Zhou Yijin and Lin Xiao were sleepy, so they postponed the trip for another hour.

The temperature is not high today, and the seaside wind is strong, even at noon, it doesn't feel too hot.

The tourist season has passed, and this is an additional industry of the hotel, the entertainment items are not open to the public, and there are not many people.

Zou Huasheng went straight to the surfing area as soon as he got out of the car.

Jiang Lian answered a call on the way, and he didn't get out of the car for a long time after arriving, saying that he had some work to deal with temporarily, and asked them to go first without waiting for him.

Lin Xiao went to the bathroom.

Zhong Lin and Zhou Yijin stood under umbrellas on the beach to hide from the sun. Not far away, Yan Zhengming was walking towards them after consulting the staff.

When he got closer, he said to Zhong Lin: "I asked, there is a one-on-one diving instructor, we can not go so deep."

He wanted to take Zhong Lin to see the underwater world, but Zhong Lin didn't have a diving certificate, so he couldn't free dive or deep dive.

"I'm still a little scared." Although Zhong Lin can swim, he has never dived before, so he retreated at the end, "Honey, can I accompany you to complete the next project?"

"I will protect you, and there are professional dive guides to lead us, don't be afraid." Yan Zhengming tried hard to persuade him, "Believe me, the underwater world is really super beautiful."

"But if I want to go, I have to go to training first, which is too time-consuming. You can go by yourself, you can not only free dive, but also deep dive. With me, you have to make time to take care of me, and you can't have fun , you go by yourself, it’s the same to take more photos and videos and show me back.”

"But..." Yan Zhengming was a little disappointed, but he didn't want to force Zhong Lin, so after thinking about it, he finally compromised, "Then I won't go either, let's play other projects."

Zhong Lin was in a hurry: "No, if I don't go, you can go, I will feel guilty if you accommodate me like this, and Xiaoxiao hasn't decided what event he wants to play, he is timid, he probably can't play the exciting game , I can accompany him later, can't I?"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

When Lin Xiao came back from the bathroom, he faintly heard Zhong Lin mentioning himself, and came over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yan Zhengming's expression was resentful: "Your Brother Zhong Lin won't go diving with me anymore."

"I'm really a little scared."

Lin Xiao's eyes brightened: "I'll go with you, just in time, I want to go diving too."

Zhong Lin and Zhou Yijin were startled, and said in unison: "Aren't you afraid?" They thought that Lin Xiao would be afraid of projects with a relatively high risk factor because of his timidity, and wanted to accompany him.

"Don't be afraid, I like diving just like Brother Zhengming." Lin Xiao said with a proud expression, "I even got a certificate."

Well, for a long time, it's a whole lot of self-indulgence.

Zhong Lin sighed, and said to Yan Zhengming: "Now someone is with you, go and change quickly, don't waste time."

"how about you?"

"Ajin and I will go down to the glass boat and have a look." Zhong Lin urged him, "Go, we can go back sooner."

"Ok."

Yan Zhengming led the people away reluctantly.

Zhou Yijin looked at the two people who were drifting away, endured and endured, and finally couldn't hold back a word: "Honey, don't you think Lin Xiao is a little too clingy to your Yan Zhengming?"

"Ah?! Is there?"

"I think so."

Zhong Lin looked at Lin Xiao who was bouncing around Yan Zhengming in the distance, and gradually understood Zhou Yijin's implication, and his expression froze.

Influenced by Yan Zhengming and Zou Huasheng, he always has a "brother" filter towards Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao is usually quite lovable when talking in front of him, and he looks like an innocent future As an adult, Zhong Lin even ignored the fact that Lin Xiao liked men just like them. Based on this, some of his behavior towards Yan Zhengming seemed to have crossed the line.

However, without conclusive evidence, Zhong Lin was still reluctant to think of Lin Xiao so... so did he have ulterior motives?

"Didn't I tell you that he came here suddenly because he had a quarrel with his father, he is not familiar with the place here, and he almost had an accident yesterday, maybe he subconsciously wanted to seek a sense of security from Yan Zhengming Bar."

"Then why doesn't he stick to Zou Huasheng? Zou Huasheng is his cousin, so he should be closer to him."

"He and Hua Tsai are not cousins, and they didn't have much contact with each other before, but he and Yan Zhengming were schoolmates abroad before, and he worked as Yan Zhengming's assistant for a year. Relatively speaking, he is really close to Yan Zhengming emotionally Zhengming should be closer, it should not be..." Right?

As Zhong Lin talked, he found that he seemed to have no way to convince himself.

No matter how rational and magnanimous he is, after all, he is a mortal with emotional ups and downs.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted in the heart, they will quickly germinate and grow.

What's even more frightening is that the details in the memory will automatically help to corroborate and provide nourishment for it.

With Zhou Yijin's reminder, Zhong Lin couldn't help recalling the details of Lin Xiao's time with everyone in the past few days.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that Lin Xiao really pays special attention to Yan Zhengming, and also listens to Yan Zhengming's words.

For example, he can clearly remember Yan Zhengming's phone number and food preferences.

For example, no matter what kind of job his father arranged for him, he was not satisfied, and insisted on doing things with Yan Zhengming, but Yan Zhengming said that he was too busy to take him with him, so he re-arranged for him, and Lin Xiao immediately agreed.

When we came out to play, everyone had different opinions. Lin Xiao always stood by Yan Zhengming's side. Whenever Yan Zhengming needed help, he was the most active one. Even if he was bullied by bad guys, everyone comforted him Under the circumstances, he seemed to care more about whether Yan Zhengming would get angry.

Zhong Lin always felt that his actions were due to his gentle personality and good upbringing.

However, it is a bit far-fetched to explain it with a person's upbringing and personality alone, because if you think about it carefully, you will find that there are obvious double standards in his behavior, or preference.

If they are brothers, it can also be explained that Lin Xiao has a strong brotherly love complex.

The problem they are not.

"I know that he has a good relationship with Yan Zhengming. You also said that Lin Xiao helped Yan Zhengming a lot in the past. Yan Zhengming remembered his kindness. In addition, he is younger than us, so everyone is very accommodating to him. ,but……"

Now that he has opened his mouth, Zhou Yijin decides that the "wicked people" will go to the end.

"But I always feel that no matter how good friends are, if you still have no sense of boundaries when you know that someone has a boyfriend, either your EQ is low, or it's somewhat deliberate."

Obviously, Lin Xiao's EQ is not low, otherwise he wouldn't be able to coax Yan Zhengming and Zhong Lin so much...

Docile?

Zhou Yijin couldn't find a particularly precise word to describe it.

Zhong Lin was silent and did not speak, but quietly looked at the distant sea, as if thinking, but also as if letting go.

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

No matter in the past or now, Yan Zhengming has given him enough sense of security emotionally. As long as it is during the relationship, Yan Zhengming spends most of his time around him except for studying and working, sometimes even It's crazy sticky.

During this period, Zhong Lin never imagined the possibility of Yan Zhengming falling in love with others, and at the same time automatically ignored the fact that others might like him, but in fact, no matter how you look at it, Yan Zhengming is attractive Capital.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a while, Zhou Yijin couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking, what should I do if Xiaoxiao really has a crush on Yan Zhengming."

He trusted Yan Zhengming very much, and also believed that Yan Zhengming, like him, hadn't even noticed Lin Xiao's feelings for him.

That's why it's so difficult.

He didn't know when Lin Xiao fell in love with Yan Zhengming, but it definitely didn't happen recently. They separated for more than three years before, and Lin Xiao had so many opportunities to confess his love, why did he choose to secretly fall in love?Do you think Yan Zhengming will definitely reject him after confessing his love?Then now that they know that the two of them have reconciled, they come to make trouble again, what kind of trouble is they going to do?

Now that he has noticed the clues, Zhong Lin is still somewhat concerned.

But Lin Xiao didn't pierce the window paper, and with the cover of "friend" and "partner's heir", to be honest, it was really difficult to deal with.

There is nothing he can do in this situation.

You are in charge of the world, and whoever other people have a crush on.

but……

"Remind Yan Zhengming, let Yan Zhengming deal with it himself, don't be a villain."

Zhou Yijin didn't know the twists and turns of Yan Zhengming's interests in the business field, and he didn't know how scary Yan Zhengming's disapproval appearance was when he got angry. If there is no chaos, it is enough to kill the danger in the cradle.

Zhong Lin frowned slightly and said nothing, obviously not planning to do that.

Zhou Yijin saw that he had concerns, so he wisely stopped giving him advice, and just said: "You know, I hate talking about people's right and wrong behind their backs the most. It's not because of you and Lin Xiao that I talk so much today. If you really want to sow dissension or something, I really hope that you will be happy, and that you and Yan Zhengming will continue to be sweet like this without any further twists and turns."

"I know." Zhong Lin turned his head and looked at him softly, "I understand, thank you, Ah Jin."

"Stop, no sensationalism."

"..."

"Just say it if you need it. Although Brother Jin can't stab you twice, nor can he stab others twice for you, but he can help you cheer on the sidelines, dear."

"I thank you."

"You're welcome."

"roll!"

"What are you going to do?"

Zhong Lin glanced at him lightly: "Do you think this kind of thing can stump me?"

"Yo, it's so awesome, let's hear it."

Zhong Lin hooked his fingers at him.

Zhou Yijin was really fooled, and took the initiative to put his ear close to him.

Zhong Lin whispered in his ear: "I won't tell you the secret~"

When it was over, he blew hot air in his ear.

"Damn!" Zhou Yijin's waist softened, and he jumped three feet high on the spot with his neck shrunk.

Rubbing his ears, he took two steps back with lingering fear, and sighed: "Yan Zhengming is really not a serious person. It's only been a while since you got back together, and you're going to be bad."

Zhong Lin didn't care at all, hating iron for not being strong, said: "Why are you so cowardly, you become soft without touching it, and you dare to yell about wanting to sleep with a man all day long, do you really dare to ask for a man if I really give you one?"

"What does it mean to be soft without touching it! How can I be soft! Don't talk nonsense!" Some people are typical people who are cowardly and stubborn, "If you have the ability, give it a try and see if I dare."

"Don't tell me, I really have this plan." Zhong Lin adjusted his expression and asked him, "What do you think of Jiang Lian?"

In the past, his impression of Jiang Lian was only on the surface. Now that he has a deeper understanding, he finds that Jiang Lian is really good at dealing with people and has a very high emotional intelligence.

He hadn't thought about this at all before, and felt that there was a big gap between the two in all aspects, and he was afraid that Zhou Yijin would suffer.

Zhou Yijin looks shrewd and tactful on the surface, and he is also eloquent at the negotiating table. In fact, his thoughts are very simple and easy to understand in private. In Zhong Lin's eyes, Zhou Yijin is the type of person he likes to associate with the most. Cheerful and straightforward, know the world but not the world.

He felt that there must be a very good talent worthy of Zhou Yijin.

Jiang Lian is undoubtedly the most suitable.

Not to mention anything else, just because he can become Yan Zhengming's most trustworthy brother, he is not far behind.

After all, Yan Zhengming of their family is still a bit of a shit luck when it comes to making (male) friends.

In order to draw the red line for the two of them, Zhong Lin thought carefully for several nights before, but he didn't know that the big tail wolf had already been eyeing Zhou Yijin.

The numbness on Zhou Yijin's back had just passed, and when he heard Zhong Lin's words, he took a sharp breath like a conditioned reflex, and felt the pain in his lower back began to hurt again.

"You, you, aren't you? You want to match us up?!"

"I think you two are very suitable. He is so nice, handsome and gentle, and he is very good at caring for others." Seeing his frightened face, Zhong Lin asked puzzledly, "Why do you react so strongly?"

Then he remembered that it was Jiang Lian who sent Zhou Yijin back last night when he was drunk, and the two of them got up later than him today. Zhou Yijin didn't seem to interact with Jiang Lian much today. Two who can blare.

It seems that there is a situation.

Zhong Lin looked at him suspiciously: "Tell me honestly, did something unreasonable happen after the two of you went back last night?"

"No!" Zhou Yijin denied it almost immediately. After denying it, he realized that it was too self-deprecating, so he added, "Well, I was drunk last night, and I went crazy drinking in front of him after I went back, so don't It's so embarrassing to face him."

"Guess I believe it or not?"

"..."

"Fine, it's fine if you don't want to tell me. Alas, I had my heart for Mingyue, but Mingyue shined in the ditch, and paid by mistake."

"..." Zhou Yijin covered his face and whispered, "We almost had sex after drinking last night."

"!..."
