Did something happen suddenly, so I was delayed and couldn't pick her up?
With Ye Xinning thinking like this, she didn't wait for Shen Lin to pick her up.
She returned to Ming Mansion by herself.
When she walked into the living room, she didn't see Shen Lin. Aunt Ning asked her, "My wife is back."
Ye Xinning nodded, "Is sir back?"
"Sir is back and went upstairs."
Ye Xinning was surprised, are you back?
Shen Lin is back, so isn't he busy in the company?
Then why didn't you answer her call? Why didn't you pick her up?
Ye Xinning had too many confusions in her heart.
She told Aunt Ning that she understood.
Then he turned around and walked upstairs.
When she went upstairs to the bedroom, she didn't see Shen Lin. She thought about it and went to the study.
She stood at the door and knocked.
There was no sound inside. Ye Xinning knocked on the door again and opened the door. Shen Lin was inside.
Ye Xinning stood at the door, looking at the people inside, his eyes gradually deepening.
She walked in and sat down opposite Shen Lin, "When did you come back?"
"I just came back not long ago."
Ye Xinning groaned.
She thought she would explain something, but Shen Lin didn't say a word.
The smile on her face became weaker and weaker, and in the end she basically had no expression at all, "Really? I thought you were busy in the company."
Shen Lin didn't speak. Ye Xinning raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Then you're busy, I'm going to the bedroom."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left without waiting for Shen Lin to speak.
And the smile on her lips disappeared the moment she turned around.
People's patience is limited. Faced with Shen Lin's inexplicable behavior, she gave Shen Lin time to explain, but Shen Lin had no explanation.
Whether it was why he suddenly didn't pick her up at the door of the law firm, or why he was still so cold when he returned home?
She reflected on whether she had offended him in some way, or whether she had done something bad.
But she hadn't figured it out after much thought. What Shen Lin did was undoubtedly unreasonable to her.
It's not like she has no temper. Shen Lin doesn't want to talk to her anymore. Does she still want to be hot-tempered but cold-hearted?
She, Ye Xinning, couldn't do it and didn't want to do it.
He could talk if he wanted to. If not, she was not a roundworm in his stomach and had to know what he was thinking at all times.
Moreover, the things Huo Yanzhi said today have been going back and forth in her mind, and she needs some time to sort them out.
…
Ye Xinning went back to the bedroom, took a shower and has been working on his work since then. Shen Lin never came back, as if he had endless work.
But who knows whether he is busy or simply doesn't want to come back to see her in the bedroom.
Ye Xinning went to bed after finishing her work. She was too tired, and if Shen Lin didn't come back so late, she thought he must not want to see her. In this case, there was no need for her to wait any longer.
In the bedroom, only the bedside light was still on. The bedroom door was opened from the outside, and Shen Lin walked in from the outside.
He looked at the sleeping woman on the bed with deep eyes. Thinking of the scene he saw at the door of the law firm before, he went crazy with anger.
Have she and Huo Yanzhi been in frequent contact during this period?
Especially today, they hugged each other when he arrived. What were they doing before he arrived? What were they doing?
Shen Lin had too many questions in his heart. It was these doubts that prevented him from being as close to Ye Xinning as usual. As long as he talked to her, he would think of the scene he saw in the law firm tonight.
Shen Lin sat by the bed for a long time, finally got up and left the bedroom again.
…
Early the next morning, Ye Xinning woke up, and she was alone on the bed. She reached out and landed on the other side of the big bed, which was cold and without any warmth.
It was obvious that Shen Lin didn't come back last night. Ye Xinning sat on the bed, feeling a sharp pain in his head.
She racked her brains and couldn't figure out why Shen Lin was suddenly angry?
It was obviously fine before last night.
Like Shen Lin, Ye Xinning was not in high spirits and her head was groggy. When she came downstairs, Aunt Ning was setting breakfast. When she saw her coming down, she said respectfully, "Good morning, madam."
Ye Xinning nodded, walked to the dining table and sat down.
He glanced around the living room but didn't see Shen Lin. Ye Xinning looked back and sat bored.
Aunt Ning noticed her gaze and whispered in her ear, "Sir has gone to the company."
Ye Xinning nodded and said nothing more.
Aunt Ning moved her lips and asked one more question, "Did the wife and husband have a fight?"
Ye Xinning lowered his head and drank the porridge in front of him, "I don't know if this is a quarrel.
Her words made Aunt Ning even more confused, "I wonder if this counts as a quarrel?"
Ye Xinning smiled. She really didn't know what to say about the matter between her and Shen Lin, so she simply didn't explain too much.
She simply ate breakfast and said, "Aunt Ning, I'm going to work."
"Okay, madam, will you come back for dinner tonight? I'll prepare it in advance."
Ye Xinning responded casually, "Let's talk about it tonight."
After leaving Ming Mansion, Ye Xinning came to the law firm. As soon as he walked in, he heard Ye Xiaoxiao say that Xiao Chen asked everyone to go to the conference room for a meeting.
She wondered, "Is there something big going on?"
"I don't know." Ye Xiaoxiao shook his head, Xiao Chen didn't say what the reason was.
Ye Xinning didn't care, took the notebook and went to the conference room with Ye Xiaoxiao.
When they arrived, there were not many people there, only Xiao Chen was talking to the assistant lawyer.
Seeing her come in, Xiao Chen said hello, "Here he comes."
Ye Xinning nodded, "Yeah."
Xiao Chen's eyes fell on her face, "You don't look good. Is it because the recent case was too hard?"
Ye Xinning smiled and said, "No, I can still handle some personal matters and work matters."
It wasn't a problem at work, so Xiao Chen didn't ask any more questions.
The people had almost arrived, and Xiao Chen officially started the meeting.
The first half of the meeting was filled with annual summaries. It was almost the end of the year, and many cases had to be summarized. Xiao Chen also made some comments on each lawyer's work this year.
"By the way, the law firm needs to recruit a director. As the number of cases increases, I need someone to help me."
Xiao Chen just finished saying this, and everyone looked at him, guessing who Xiao Chenhui was supporting.
Some of the lawyers set their sights on her and Xia Wan.
In the law firm, she and Xia Wan, Xia Wan brought the most benefits to the firm, and she had never lost a lawsuit.
Xia Wan looked at Xiao Chen expectantly, while Ye Xinning lowered her head. To be honest, she didn't care if the director was not the director.
"After discussions between Gao Huo and I, we finally decided to let Lawyer Ye be promoted to the position of director."
Xiao Chen finished speaking, and before Ye Xinning had time to react, Xia Wan stood up excitedly, "Why? Why is it her?"
