Chapter 24: Let's talk when I get back
her in her dreams. But now, seeing such a real mother, tears welled up in her eyes and she threw herself into the arms of her mother who stood beside her, crying heartbroken: "Mom, I miss you so much...."Mr. Zhou, this is my university classmate, Lin Zhixuan."
"Hello, Teacher Zhou. I often hear my son Shutinglan mention you. Thank you for taking care of him." Lin Zhifan saw that the person spoke human language to a human and ghost language to a ghost. When did Shutinglan ever mention Teacher Zhou to her
"Are you classmates Do you study law too" Zhou Ming was also naturally familiar and, after taking his seat, began to chat with Lin Zhifei.
"No, I studied psychology. We ended up as roommates by chance during dorm assignments that year and became bunk mates." Lin Zhifei answered truthfully.
“Psychology So you’re a psychologist now”
"About that."
Lin Zhixuan, as a popular emotional influencer, also answers many consultations every day, so he can be considered a mental health expert in a way.
Zhou Ming is in his thirties, well-maintained, earns a good living at the law firm, and can be considered a golden bachelor. However, he obviously doesn't have eyes for Lin Zhixuan.
Shutinglan knew Lin Zhifei too well. Once she became serious and polite, it meant she didn't think highly of the other person. Zhou Ming seemed indifferent to Lin Zhifei as well. The three of them ate and chatted, the atmosphere like that of colleagues who had worked together for years.
After a while, Zhou Ming's phone rang. It was the client he had an appointment with in the afternoon who arrived at the law firm early, so he could only say goodbye and leave ahead of schedule.
After the restaurant was left with only Shu Tinglan and Lin Zhiyao.
Lin Zhihao said: This Teacher Zhou has a crush on you.
Shutinglan firmly denied: "Impossible, Teacher Zhou only has work in his eyes."
Lin Zhiyue: Baby, trust the teacher's judgment. However, this man is very realistic. The other half he wants must be someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him and fight side by side. As for you, you should still be in the stage of having a good impression of him. He wants to stabilize you but doesn't want to make any further commitments. So he is intentionally and unintentionally cultivating you. On the one hand, he wants to win your favor; on the other hand, he wants to see if you have room for growth and if you are qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Shu Tinglan: .... Hmm, your ability to spout nonsense with a straight face has improved again. If I didn't know Teacher Zhou so well, I almost would have been fooled by you.
Lin Zhixuan: Baby, you have no idea about your own charm. It's a waste of talent.
Shū Tīnglán didn't want to pay attention to her, changing the subject: You said you had some good news to tell me today
Lin Zhixuan: Right, I almost forgot. I got Zhuoyuan Technology. Their HR manager asked me to go over tomorrow to sign the contract. For a year next year, they'll let me handle all the recruitment positions in their tech department. This is really thanks to Zhuo Y uan. Although he refused me and said he wouldn't take care of this, he gave my WeChat to their HR manager. Think about it, how could the HR manager not take seriously a WeChat recommendation from the CEO
Taken aback, Shu Tinglan answered somewhat sheepishly upon hearing Zhu Yu'an's name from Lin Zhihao: "That's good, you do your best."
Lin Zhiyao: "I originally worked as a recruiter to meet all kinds of people and experience life, but since I took over Zhuo Yuan Technology, I'll give it my best shot. In the future, I'll also be qualified to brag to fans that my sister is a big player in the workplace."
Shu Tinglan remained noncommittal. Lin Zhi'ao lived a carefree and unrestrained life. Once he made up his mind about what he wanted, he would charge forward without hesitation.
When they parted ways, Lin Zhixuan habitually took Shu Tinglan's hand and took a selfie to post on his friends circle. In the photo, the sunshine in late autumn and early winter was bright, shining through the glass windows of the tea restaurant and falling on Shu Tinglan's smiling face. The light and shadow were just right, making him look especially good, and Lin Zhixuan looked good too. Lin Zhixuan's beauty was flamboyant and enchanting, while Shu Tinglan's was elegant and refined. When placed together, they surprisingly harmonized.
When Shu Tinglan arrived at the law firm, Lin Zhi's post on social media had received countless likes. They had many mutual friends, and Cheng Chen was one of them.
Cheng Chen commented: "Fairy, don't keep introducing all sorts of strange men to my Shu Tinglan."
Lin Zhixuan replied: Where did the man come from
Cheng Chen: There are three sets of cutlery behind you at the table, it must be men. Otherwise, besides me, where would you have any mutual friends
Lin Zhiyao: You have a sharp eye! You got it right, but it's not the man I introduced. It's one of Shu Tinglan's suitors, and I'm helping her vet him.
Cheng Chen: Shu... listen.... Lan... come out and explain to me, how come I don't know you have admirers
Lin Zhiyao and Cheng Chen bickered with each other in the comment section for over a dozen messages, taking up the entire page. Shu Tinglan was used to it and, besides being busy with work, ignored them.
Cheng Chen and Lin Zhi's only mutual friend was the one who posted this comment, so the three of them often interacted without restraint in the comment section. They sometimes treated it as a chat interface because only the three of them could see it.
But this time, Shu Tinglan always felt something was wrong. When she finished her work, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind...
Lin Zhihao and Cheng Chen, recently, both added Zhuo Yuran's WeChat, so their comment interactions are visible to Zhuo Yuran.
Meanwhile, Shu Tinglan saw the last few comments of their interaction.
Lin Zhicheng: Shu Tinglan finally gave away her first time. She said the other person was very skilled and the experience was great. So, how about you Want to join my membership too I can teach you how to have a wonderful experience.
Cheng Chen: Don't corrupt Shu Tinglan......what kind of member I want to join.
Shu Tinglan, after reading it, wanted to perform a death scene on the spot and immediately called Lin Zhicai, strongly demanding that she delete or block this post.
Lin Zhizhen doesn't care: This is my most liked photo, I won't delete it.
Shu Tinglan: Please, would you delete the comments you've interacted with regarding Cheng Chen
Lin Zhihao: Why did you delete it We don't have any secrets between us.
Shu Tinglan: Zhuo YUAN is your mutual friend, can see. Are you really going to make everyone know the privacy of your sisters
Lin Zhifei: I... damn... forgot about this, I'll delete it right away.
Lin Zhihao immediately deleted that WeChat post, and after deleting it, he came over to comfort her:
"It's fine, President Zhu is a very busy person, he wouldn't be idle enough to look at my Moments, and besides, he's abroad with a time difference, so rest assured he can't see it. Even if he did, who cares who you are anyway."
Shu Tinglan: ...
"What are you doing"
Shu Tinglan hesitated for a moment, then held back, not telling Lin Zhifei that her first boyfriend was Zhuo Yu'an. She could only hope that he wouldn't coincidentally see this post.
But Shu Tinglan forgot, as the saying goes, things happen for a reason. Zhu Yu'an happened to see that post on WeChat Moments. When she got home at night and was about to go to sleep, Zhu Yu'an sent her a WeChat message.
But these three question marks made Shu Tinglan's scalp tingle. This was their first interaction after adding each other on WeChat, and she had only replied with three question marks herself, saying nothing.
WeChat remained silent for a long time. As she was about to drift off to sleep, the screen lit up again.
Zhuo Y uan: Let's talk when I get back. a look at it with me, Director Xiao" 。Zhuo Yuyan's tone was slightly cold and indifferent, with no emotion. He just opened the surveillance video himself for people in the conference room to watch....
