The next day, when Lin Zhiyi woke up, Lin's mother had gotten up at some unknown time and went downstairs to prepare breakfast.
She was really lazy and stared at the ceiling for a while before getting up from the bed.
After washing up, I went out and bumped into my brother.
"Brother." Lin Zhiyi shouted.
Lin Zhiyan glanced across her face and felt that her complexion looked better than yesterday, so he nodded and responded: "Yes."
"Um...it didn't hurt you last night, did it?" Although I feel embarrassed to mention it, since I have done something wrong, I have to bear it.
"Didn't you apologize last night?" Lin Zhiyan didn't care.
I've said it before, but I just cared about my own grievance last night and didn't really care about him.
"Let me take a look." Lin Zhiyi said and was about to take action.
"It's okay." Lin Zhiyan refused.
But Lin Zhiyi still insisted on rolling up his sleeves, and then saw a deep tooth mark on his brother's forearm, which was broken and blood condensed on it.
"Does it hurt?" Lin Zhiyi looked at him guiltily.
"I told you it's okay, what can I do if a man is injured like this?" Seeing that comforting her didn't work, Lin Zhiyan teased her and said, "I'll treat it as if I was bitten by a puppy."
"Lin Zhiyan!" Lin Zhiyi was really furious.
Lin Zhiyan took the opportunity to put down his sleeves, fearing that his parents would see him, and then walked downstairs.
"Did you disinfect it last night?" Lin Zhiyi followed him and asked worriedly.
"Yeah." Lin Zhiyan responded.
"Don't take it seriously. If there are scars, my future sister-in-law may be jealous?" Lin Zhiyi said.
"Thinking too much." He doesn't even have a girlfriend for his future sister-in-law.
"How could you be overthinking? Don't you plan to fall in love and get married? Maybe the girl you are destined for is right next to you." Lin Zhiyi chased after him.
"Lin Zhiyi, you are a little strange today." Lin Zhiyan always felt that she had something to say.
Lin Zhiyi felt guilty after being seen, so she subconsciously touched her face and said, "Is there any? I just want a sister-in-law."
"Why?" I haven't mentioned it for so many years, so why do I suddenly care about my life-long events?
"With your sister-in-law, you no longer have the energy to stare at me." Lin Zhiyi rolled her eyes and said again.
"Maybe there will be one more person to take care of you." Lin Zhiyan hummed.
Although Lin Zhiyi thought the scene was scary, it hadn't really happened yet, so she asked tentatively: "Brother, do you have a girl you like? If not, I'll introduce you to a friend from my childhood.
, is there anything you like?"
She almost said Yu Huan's name.
"No." Lin Zhiyan's answer was simple.
"Oh." It seemed that he really wasn't interested in Yu Huan, and Lin Zhiyi was a little disappointed.
After breakfast, Lin Zhiyi went to work as usual.
A few days passed, and Xiao Ci still didn't contact Lin Zhiyi again. And she never went to that rental house again.
In a blink of an eye, the birthday party is here.
That day, in addition to her family, her childhood friends, and many people who had business dealings with the Lin family came.
Of course, since it was Lin Zhiyi's birthday, the guests were all of the same generation and age as her, so it could be said to be a proper youth event.
After all, although the Lin family is not as big as the hm group in city s, it is still well-established and has a deep foundation. Especially after Lin Zhiyan took over in the past few years, it has gained momentum.
Therefore, there are more people who want to curry favor and get married.
Lin Zhiyi was already very good-looking, but because of the over-protection of the Lin family, she was not well-known in the socialite circle.
But today she was wearing a white dress, and she was as beautiful as a princess in a Western fairy tale. She attracted the attention of countless people, and she attracted attention wherever she went.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is not a birthday party, this is a party to choose a son-in-law." Yu Huan stood next to Lin Zhiyi, whispering to her from time to time.
This is not an exaggeration on her part. All the top young talents are here, and they all seem to be extremely satisfied with Lin Zhiyi.
"Shut your mouth." Lin Zhiyi, who was still "broken in love", was in no mood to care about this.
However, she has a lively personality, plus she has social experience in doing business in the past two years and is more sociable, so she handles it appropriately.
This is also one of the things that satisfy the men who come to the banquet based on their criteria for choosing a mate.
However, there were too many people, and the Lin family was not in a hurry to let her get too close to anyone, so Lu Xining and Yu Huan were always around to accompany Lin Zhiyi.
The former is responsible for relieving the siege, and the latter is responsible for blocking the drink for her.
So although Lin Zhiyi was the master, he didn't drink too much.
After several hours of noisy activities, the curtain finally came to an end.
The guests dispersed, and the servants cleared away the messy dishes.
Lin Zhiyi took off her clothes in a room filled with gifts, but felt extremely lonely in her heart.
Yes, even though she handled the birthday party well, she never felt happy, and she even felt that the party had little to do with her.
After a long time, it gradually became quiet down there. Even the servants packed up and went to rest, but she still couldn't sleep.
Holding the mobile phone, he sat on the bay window covered with shag carpet.
I wanted to take a look at the night outside, but I noticed that there seemed to be a car parked outside the courtyard.
Because the guests had dispersed and the vehicles had driven away, it was particularly eye-catching. What caught her attention the most was that a tall figure seemed to be leaning on the car.
Because it was too far away, I couldn't see very clearly. There was only a little spark flickering at my fingertips.
Xiao Ci?
Even though she had deliberately not thought about him that day, these two words still came to her mind without warning at this moment.
Could it be him? Or maybe she hoped it would be him.
Lin Zhiyi got down from the bay window, her mind was in a mess at the time, and she quickly ran out without thinking about anything.
"Miss?"
"Miss, where are you going so late?"
The servant asked in surprise when he saw her coming downstairs in a hurry.
Lin Zhiyi turned a deaf ear and ran straight out the door.
But she was still too late, the car that was facing under her window had already driven away.
"Miss?" Seeing her panic, the security guard also came over and asked.
Lin Zhiyi came to his senses and said, "It's okay."
I thought to myself that I was really a magic wand, and I still didn’t give up after so many days.
But when she was about to enter the main building, she suddenly felt too resigned and turned around to go to the control room again.
"Miss."
"Miss."
The security guards at home were a little surprised and frightened when they saw her.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at the surveillance screens in the control room, pointed to where the car was parked just now, and said, "Bring me the surveillance for tonight."
"Yes." The leader came over and performed a simple operation.
"You guys go out, I'll see for myself." Lin Zhiyi ordered.
None of them knew what happened, but they exchanged glances with each other and went out anyway.
Lin Zhiyi looked there by himself and saw that the car had come in the middle of the banquet and had been parked there without moving.
It wasn't until the banquet was over that a man came down.
But the tree directly covered his upper body, and in the dark light, it was actually difficult to see who it was.
But she just stared at his trousers and leather shoes until his hand dropped when he flicked the cigarette butt, revealing a red string around his wrist.
It was the one she secretly tied around Xiao Ci's wrist the night before he left. There was a silver bell tied to it.
Just because she came across a video when she was bored, which said: The bell given to you rings with every step, and thinks with every step...
