life under the pen of rebirth

Chapter 67 Extra Story: The Old Man

"Linlin, you're up. You're here." Qi Youyu took off his apron casually, walked over with a smile, hugged Hai Lin who was standing at the door in pajamas from behind, rubbed his cheek, and murmured, "Since I got up, I'll go wash up first. I made lean meat porridge, and I'll eat it later."

"Hmm..." Hai Lin patted Qi Youyu's head to signal him to let go, yawned and walked to the bathroom.

When he came out again, Qi Youyu was humming and laying out the chopsticks, with a face full of ease and happiness, Hai Lin couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, walked to the table and sat down, took the The dishes and chopsticks raised their eyebrows.

"I've made some progress, do you know how to add shredded pork to the porridge?!"

"That's it, Linlin, haven't you had enough porridge? I wanted to eat something else and you felt uncomfortable, so I called my mother and she told me how to do it." Qi Youyu narrowed his eyes and smiled cunningly , "I seldom drank porridge before and didn't pay attention to it. It turns out that not only shredded pork, but also chicken, fish, and preserved eggs can be added to porridge. In this way, you won't be afraid that you won't like it when you make porridge in the future. Well, the key is If you do it for a while at night, you don’t have to worry about your suffering from eating... Ouch!"

"Give me a quiet meal, or let Xiaoyu eat at the table, and you lie down under the table."

'Meow~'

As soon as the cat heard his name, it immediately picked up the cat food in the small plate in disgust, and moved to Hai Lin's legs to rub it back and forth, acting like a spoiled child.

"Linlin~" Qi Youyu hugged Hai Lin's arm, rubbed his big head against it, kicked a certain cat under the table neatly to the corner to lick its paws, and muttered resentfully, "With that cat You don’t want me as a cat. I’ll cook for you, put water in your bath, rub your back, and make you feel good at night...cough! What about it? It only knows how to eat, and so far even a newly hatched You haven't caught a mouse yet, but you just want everything..."

"..." Hai Lin looked down at the person who was doing the same thing as a cat that 'only knows how to eat', and couldn't help but rolled his eyes. He didn't care about the head hanging on his arm, and he picked up the bowl to fill his stomach by himself. But being pestered and tossed so late by Qi Youyu, he was already starving.

When she was half full in one breath, Qi Youyu was resting her chin on her hands, smiling and staring at herself with squinted eyes, her eyes were full of pampering and satisfaction.

Hai Lin coughed uncomfortably from that gaze, licked the corner of his mouth, and felt the burning gaze that was obviously burning for a moment, couldn't help but glared at him from embarrassment, and shouted angrily, "What are you looking at? Do you want to eat or not?! If you don’t eat, leave. I have to go to your company today. What if I’m late?!”

"Yeah, I eat and I eat, Linlin, don't be angry, I like to see you and you are still not happy... Okay, I won't say anything, don't make your ears red anymore, if you are red, you are wearing a ruby ​​earring It's like... Hey, Linlin, just tell me if you want to feed me, I'm sure I'll be happy, stuffing such a big piece of pickle all at once will kill you... Cough, Lin, Linlin, I snatched the cat food, The hairy one down there won't be happy... I, I'll eat!"

***

After some romping, it was already past nine o'clock when the two of them drove to the company. Hai Lin was a little embarrassed at first, but looking at the relaxed face of someone in the driver's seat, he immediately put the embarrassment aside. Even the vice president of the company doesn't care, he has nothing to worry about.

"Linlin, wait at the door for a while, I'll stop the car and be back soon."

Hai Lin was wearing a white shirt and jeans, with two buttons casually undone at the neckline, the sleeves were rolled up, and the hem was not tied inside the belt. The gray-blue jeans were paired with white sneakers, which made his legs extraordinarily slender, and his bangs were parted. He is slanted and short, revealing a smooth forehead. The whole person is clean and fresh. He is obviously 30 years old, but he has a college student temperament. Coupled with his handsome and gentle appearance, his dark brown eyes are deep but indifferent, giving people a kind of Strange appeal.

Hai Lin, who didn't know that he had become the focus of people, was staring at a man and a woman who were not far away, thinking about it with doubts.

To be precise, Hai Lin was staring at that woman.

It's a very familiar feeling that I haven't seen for a long time, but I just can't remember it for a while, who is it?

"Shuangshuang, why didn't you come with me to see my parents after we've been dating for so long? It was clearly agreed, why did you go back on your word? Did you..."

"Don't ask me any more, okay?! I said I have to go to work today, and I'm already late because of you. My attendance award for this month is gone, do you know that?!"

"I'm sorry, but..."

"Don't do it anymore! I know it's my fault for not asking for leave today and letting your parents come here for nothing, but I have said several times that day that I don't plan to see your parents for the time being. You are the one who insisted on forcing me to see you. Yesterday I agreed to you impulsively, I already regret it, I really don’t want to go today, you should go with your parents first..."

"what happened?"

"Qi, Mr. Qi...?"

"What are you arguing about standing at the door of the company?" Qi Youyu glanced at the two of them, frowned and said to the girl, "Since you are already late, then go and settle the matter first, and don't make it ugly in the company."

"I know, I know, Mr. Qi." The corner of his mouth was twitched in embarrassment, Cheng Shuang dropped a word in a low voice without looking at the man standing next to him, turned around and walked quickly to the coffee shop opposite the company.

After training the staff, Qi Youyu turned his head to see Hai Lin's smiling face immediately, walked over a few steps, stretched his arms around Hai Lin's shoulders, and said with a smile, "Linlin, let's go, I'm with Fu Jing and He Peng. The offices are on the top floor."

"That was just now..." Hai Lin's expression was a little strange.

"Oh, that's my secretary, newly hired. She wasn't there last time you came. He Peng found it for him. He said that in a company, there are all old men who don't even have a mother. If something happens, it won't matter." It’s convenient, so I applied for a few female secretaries.” Qi Youyu sneered, and said with a curled lips, “What’s the convenience, they are all weak and weak, and they are all out of breath after running a few stairs. Put on a crying face, cut! This is just a bitch, if my soldiers would have kicked her out."

"..." Hai Lin couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with a sideways glance, "You are not allowed to have any objections to using the little girl as a man?! You think this is the army, and no one will care about you Control? This is a company, and all employees have human rights, so take it easy and don't do whatever you want..."

***

"Mr. Qi, this is yesterday's document. There are still 10 minutes until the ten o'clock meeting time."

"Well, put it there first." Qi Youyu signed without raising his head, and asked casually, "Is everything settled?"

"Yes, I..." Cheng Shuang glanced at Hai Lin, who was quietly sitting on the sofa beside him while reading a book and occasionally sipping coffee, and pursed his lips, "I broke up with him, I think we are not suitable for each other, I ,us……"

"Well, um, this kind of thing is your private matter. You don't need to report it to me. I won't ask. I respect the human rights of the company's employees." As he spoke, Qi Youyu raised his head and raised his eyebrows with a half-smile Hailin looked at him, blinked his left eye quickly, then stood up, and said to Cheng Shuang expressionlessly, "I'm going to a meeting, take care of this gentleman, and go get him a cup of hot water first." Coffee, no, let’s change it to a cup of milk tea.”

Linlin has a bad stomach, so don't drink coffee.

Qi Youyu turned his head to meet Hai Lin who was looking at him with the corners of his mouth bent, his sharp eyes softened involuntarily.

"Linlin, I'll go to the meeting first. You sit for a while and eat when I come back. If you're hungry, let Secretary Cheng call to order and eat first, okay?"

Hai Lin smiled and nodded, tilted his head and said, "Hurry up and go to the meeting. If I'm hungry, I'll take care of it myself."

"Yeah." Qi Youyu felt relieved, turned around and left.

"Sir, your milk tea." Cheng Shuang put down the cup in his hand, bowed his lips politely to Hai Lin, and was stopped when he was about to turn around and go out.

"Miss Cheng?" Hai Lin picked up the milk tea and took a sip, squinted and smiled, raised his head and waved to Cheng Shuang, nodded and said, "The milk tea is delicious, don't you mind sitting down and chatting with me, sitting alone is a bit boring .”

"...Of course, I don't mind." Cheng Shuang felt a strange sense of familiarity. If it wasn't for a man sitting here, she would really have thought that as usual, the principal had come to the door to show off.

"Miss Cheng..." Hai Lin chuckled lightly, laughing at himself in secret, did he really care?Even this obvious defensive posture was unconsciously displayed.

"Miss Cheng's surname is Cheng, which Cheng is it?" Hai Lin coughed lightly, looked up at the woman opposite, his body seemed to be relaxed and casually leaning on the sofa, but his eyes were calmly looking at Cheng Shuang.

"Oh, I'm He Chengcheng, what's the matter?"

"Well, I'm just curious." Hai Lin lowered his eyes to think, frowned and smiled slightly, "Miss Cheng reminded me of the hit Shanghai Bund back then. I remember that the heroine in it was Feng Chengcheng. I remember At that time, many parents liked to learn from movies when they named their children, Ms. Cheng was called Cheng Cheng when she was a child, and she changed her name later, right?"

"...how do you know?" Cheng Shuang was surprised, and then couldn't help laughing, "Yeah, my mother liked to watch Shanghai Beach before, and she said that she married my father partly because of my father's last name Yes, you don’t know how funny it is, but the more I listened to it later, the more I felt that the name was so vulgar, and when I went to college, I went home and took my ID card to change it..."

Hai Lin nodded and listened to her with a smile, occasionally interjecting a few words, teasing Cheng Shuang to cover his lips and chuckle, seeing her completely relaxed, his thoughts drifted away unknowingly.

How could you not know?Back then, I changed the name with her!

Cheng Shuang, in pairs, good things come in pairs.

……

"...Haha... How about calling him Cheng Ren? If you don't succeed, you will be Cheng Ren. How straightforward."

"What! This is a man's name at all. Don't be kidding. I'm serious. I will change it when I get home the day after tomorrow. Think about it, what name should I choose?"

"Well, it really needs to be changed. Have you told your aunt? It's not good to make your own way."

"Oh, it's all right, I've already told my mother, and she didn't object, and you've seen my mother, she doesn't care about this at all... What's her name? Cheng Jing? No, no, how do you tell me?" Like a fine..."

"Well... How about Cheng Jia? Jia has a good meaning, and getting married sounds quite meaningful... And I don't want anything else in my life, I just want to get married and start a business with you, or else you call me married, I Then change the name to Liye? Hai Liye, hehe..."

"Go! Establishing a career is so ugly, don't meddle in it. Cheng Jia? Well... the more you think about starting a family, the more strange it sounds. Find someone you really love, and the second is that the person I love can become famous... Unfortunately, now I understand that there is no such good thing in this world. Bread and love are always hard to come by. If you want the same, you must have it. Give up, just like I chose you..."

"...Then call Cheng Shuang, good things come in pairs, your dream comes true, maybe... mine will come true..."

……

"Linlin, what's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze?"

"Huh?" Hai Lin raised his head suddenly, looked at Qi Youyu's concerned eyes, couldn't help but smiled, took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just thought of something just now, by the way, after you finish the meeting What about Miss Cheng?"

"Well, it's over, I kept you waiting for two hours, are you hungry? Let's go down and eat something, I'm also very hungry, what do you want to eat?" Someone who automatically ignored the latter question pulled Hai Lin with a smile Talking while walking out, the awkward look of smiling but not smiling is obviously delicious.

Hai Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the sadness caused by the past just now disappeared without a trace.

"Okay, can we go to 'Wuweiju' to eat fish?"

"Hmph, 'Wuweiju' doesn't only have fish, and I like to eat your cooking... let's go."

Looking at Qi Youyu, who was immediately appeased by just a word from himself, Hai Lin couldn't help laughing, and in a blink of an eye, he bumped into Cheng Shuang at the door, paused, Hai Lin hesitated and called her back.

"Miss Cheng, can I ask, your name...I mean who thought of the name Cheng Shuang for you?"

"Uh...? This, of course, is what I thought. As the saying goes, good things come in pairs. What's wrong?"

"No, I just think you got a good name, and good things come in pairs... Then I wish you really good things in pairs. Goodbye, Cheng Shuang!"

"goodbye……"

Cheng Shuang felt that this man was a little strange, as if he was saying goodbye to someone, but he was speaking to himself? !

Speaking of which, this man really fits the type he likes, and he doesn't seem to be short of money. At that moment, Cheng Shuang somehow felt a little pity.

***

"Xiaoyu, how do you feel about Cheng Shuang?"

"Huh? What's the matter?" Qi Youyu looked at Hai Lin in the co-pilot suspiciously while driving, and asked in puzzlement.

"It's your impression of her... What does this girl give you?"

"Feel? I feel that she is too motherly!"

"..." She is a bitch, have you never noticed it?Hai Lin twitched the corner of his mouth, sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, I know I've thought too much..."

"Linlin, why are you asking Cheng Shuang? Are you interested in her?" Qi Youyu frowned unhappy, he felt that his baby's expression towards other women was not right just now.

It has to be said that Qi Youyu, who is completely unconscious of his feelings for others, is as sensitive as a cat protecting food when he faces Hailin, whoever touches him has to be prepared to be scratched.

"Where did you go? It's nothing. I'm just curious." Hai Lin shook his head with a calm expression on his face.

Looking at Hai Lin's reaction, Qi Youyu knew that he really didn't care about Cheng Shuang, but it didn't matter if he was simply curious. Qi Youyu decided to find someone to investigate Cheng Shuang carefully after returning to the company. It's not that he didn't believe Hai Lin. Lin was just worried that Cheng Shuang's existence would affect Hai Lin's mood.

If it doesn’t work, just let her resign. Anyway, it’s a big deal to let Qi Kang come back, because his soldiers are easy to use, even if he kicks him, he won’t hide his tears like a bitch...
