Chapter 26 Don't Overstep the Thunder
As soon as Lin Xingyuan came out of the elevator, he saw Ye Yingning standing in the corridor. Her standing posture was very elegant and very relaxed. Her wide-leg pants made of linen outlined the slender curves of her lower body, making her back look very slender.
She stood sideways and didn't notice him, so he could stand not far away and look at her unscrupulously.
The orange highlight on the cigarette between the red lips trembled, and most of the lipstick on her lips faded away, leaving only a residual plum red halo.
The lamp above his head was a bit pale, making Lin Xingyuan's vision gradually blurry. He squinted and stared at Ye Yingning's figure, but another woman suddenly appeared in his memory.
He once thought that he was just trying something new. That woman didn't even graduate from high school and went out to work part-time. Except for her face and figure, almost everything didn't match his original fantasy of a wife.
But he really fell in love with her and was even eager to become famous so that he could have the capital to provide her with a good life based on his own abilities.
Ye Yingning once said that in the circle she lives in, only one in ten thousand women can marry into a wealthy family. How lucky is she to become Mrs. Lin?
"I will get married when I come back. I will convince my parents. Yingning, believe me."
With the words still ringing in his ears, Lin Xingyuan never liked making promises, but he uncharacteristically made a promise to Ye Yingning at the airport.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of this dead woman.
Pain, resentment, regret, self-blame, resentment, Lin Xingyuan did not want to recall it. Ye Yingning's death was a secret and even a scandal. Although he could not know the whole truth, he could detect something strange from a few words.
Under extremely complicated emotions, he even boasted of his foresight - intentionally getting close to Ye Yun's only daughter Ye Lan'an.
Of course, in the beginning, it was just for the Ye family's wealth and power to join forces. Lin Xing was far from a fool. From the few words in the overseas phone call from his father, he had already sensed that the family's business had encountered an unprecedented crisis.
However, he did not expect that Lin would actually go bankrupt.
Pampering Tian Ge is too much.
Lin Xingyuan was initially full of debt to Ye Yingning, until he realized that the cause of her death was full of filth and filth, and the debt completely turned into resentment.
At that moment, his dignity and possessiveness as a man made him want to die immediately.
Thinking of this, Lin Xingyuan clenched his fists subconsciously. At this moment, the woman in front of him coughed, then put out the cigarette butt, and a second later, she saw him.
*****
Ye Yingning stood there without turning her head. The glass of the floor-to-ceiling window was spotless and as bright as a mirror. She could definitely see the person coming.
However, she didn't know why he was here. She frowned. She broke the silence and spoke first: "Are you looking for me?"
After the last incident, Ye Yingning knew very well that she could no longer let her emotions go until the matter was properly resolved.
Lin Xingyuan was Ye Yingning's lover, not Ye Yingning's. She couldn't convince herself to live with him under someone else's identity.
What's more, in this situation, once she crosses the threshold, she will become a third party that everyone despises.
How ridiculous. She is obviously a real girlfriend, but in the blink of an eye she becomes a bitch who ruins other people's relationships.
"I really passed by this time. The rehearsal in the concert hall had just ended. I looked downstairs and saw that this floor was still lit. I guessed that you were working overtime."
Lin Xingyuan took two steps forward and stood behind Ye Yingning, keeping a distance of more than one meter between the two.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the man in the mirror without saying a word. He was wearing a light gray hoodie, which made his already fair skin even whiter. He was as youthful and sunny as if he were still alive.
A big boy reading.
It's almost exactly the same as in memory and has not changed.
"Thank you for coming to see me. Is there anything else you can do?"
Ye Yingning's voice trembled a little. She didn't know if it was the effect of the cigarette. She felt that her throat was a little tight and she almost couldn't speak.
Facing Lin Xingyuan, she couldn't remain calm. After all, he was the man she once liked but could never have again.
He looked at her slightly lonely back and suddenly chuckled, then walked straight to her and stood side by side with her in front of the window.
"You are only four years older than Lan An, but you seem to be much more mature than her."
Lin Xingyuan put his hands on the window and said while looking down. The view here is very good, and he can see most of the business district. No wonder she stood here for a long time.
Behind them is this city where countless people want to settle down and take root. The lights are bright and neon, and countless love and hatred are being staged.
But men and women, love and hate, are so small and humble as dust compared to the vast world.
Ye Yingning's breath was stagnant. Seeing him taking the initiative to mention Ye Lan'an, her heart felt stinging. She thought for a while before replying: "She is our little princess, and I was born a witch, so I am very old-fashioned."
Her words made Lin Xingyuan's smile deepen unknowingly. He turned to look at her. He tilted his head and said seriously: "Since I was a child, I think witches in cartoons are much more interesting than princesses. They have boundless power.
Riding a broom and being domineering. Although they seem a little evil-minded, each one of them is unforgettable and makes people love from hate. What do you think?"
If Ye Yingning didn't want to appear too sensitive, this would have been close to teasing.
She did not speak immediately, but pressed her lips into a thin line.
Lin Xingyuan looked like this, making Ye Yingning feel that he seemed a little strange. No, it was not strange either. This feeling was clearly the same as when he first pursued her!
After all, they were once lovers. Ye Yingning knew Lin Xingyuan too well. If he hadn't aroused his interest, he would never have shown so much patience. He took the initiative to talk to her several times and said some specious but meaningless words.
.
Men have never been good at verbal communication. The only reason that makes him talk more is the surge of adrenaline.
A dangerous smell filled the air, and she shivered. Lin Xingyuan next to her noticed it and immediately asked: "Are you cold?"
He regretted that he didn't have a coat on, so he saw Ye Yingning folding his hands on his chest and taking two steps back.
"Mr. Lin, I'm very busy at work, so I'm going back first."
Almost in a panic, she turned around and left, but Lin Xingyuan stopped her by calling her, his voice slightly raised.
"You are afraid of me and avoiding me."
