C193 He Had a Companion by His Side
Owen introduced, "This is Mr. Lin. His business is involved in everything, and he does everything very well."
Soong Ze had already reached out a hand to Lin Yuelin. "Mr. Lin, long time no see."
"You too." Lin Yuelin shook hands with him with a cold face. When he looked at Qin Fei, she just smiled faintly at him and bent over. She did not even shake his hand.
He was the center of attention wherever Lin Yuelin appeared. Only Qin Fei dared to not give him face.
Qin Fei always looked at Lin Yuelin from two years ago. He was the same as when they first met two years ago. Cold, arrogant, and inhumane.
It was just that she did not want to recall the past. To Qin Fei, it was a nightmare. She did not want to recall the nightmare anymore.
"Ze, you used to be a person of B City. You should have had contact with Mr. Lin long ago. I actually wanted to introduce you to him. You see, I am really muddle-headed." Owen smiled.
Mr. Lin did not come alone. There was also an elegant woman holding his hand. Her long curly hair fell on her chest. She was sexy and beautiful.
There were still two empty seats beside Qin Fei. No one arranged it. Lin Yuelin sat down next to Qin Fei, and this woman sat next to him.
"Mr. Owen, I have some other relationship with Mr. Song. It's very, very deep." His woman had become his wife. This relationship was already not simple.
"What kind of relationship?" Owen leaned his head towards Lin Yuelin in a very gossipy way.
"Owen, I'm starving to death. Can I serve the dishes first? If you have anything else to do in the future, I won't come," ___ said. Qin Fei slammed the table and said.
She was not a rude person to begin with, but when she saw Owen interrogating Lin Yuelin like this, she was really afraid that Lin Yuelin would say something that would make everyone feel awkward, so she had to interrupt him.
Owen saw that his goddess was accusing him of starving her, and immediately regretted it. He was a gentleman, so why didn't he take this into consideration, so he quickly called the waiter to order.
After Qin Fei interrupted him, Lin Yuelin did not continue that taboo topic.
Lin Yuelin was like before, speaking very little. Every time someone asked him about it, he would lightly say one or two words. Other times, he would quietly drink wine.
Sometimes, he would smile and whisper to the woman he brought with him from time to time.
Lin Yuelin sat beside her. Qin Fei felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles. In order to cover up her embarrassment, she could only eat continuously.
In total, Qin Fei and Soong Ze had participated in many business gatherings and performed very well each time. Many of Soong Ze's partners praised her. But this time Qin Fei could not say a word. Not only could she not say anything, but she also could not say anything. Her face was also ashen.
Qin Fei did not want to become the focus of the entire dining table. She only wanted to silently complete this awkward gathering.
But how could Owen let his goddess do as she wished? As she spoke, she threw the topic to Qin Fei.
"Fei Fei, you studied in England before returning to China. Why haven't you returned to England for so long?" Owen had wanted to ask a long time ago, but this time, he happened to ask.
How could Qin Fei tell Lin Yuelin about what happened in the past in front of him?
"I..." Qin Fei had thought of a good reason to cover up Owen's question, but she did not expect Lin Yuelin to stop her just after she said one word.
He seemed to want to embarrass Qin Fei on purpose and interrupted her. "Miss Qin was a legendary figure in B City. I have heard about her. It seemed that her childhood friend wanted to marry her younger sister, so she came back. But she was unable to change anything and was so sad that she did not want to go to England to study anymore."
After saying that, Lin Yuelin turned his head to look at Qin Fei and hid a knife in his smile. "Miss Qin, am I right or not?"
The smile on Qin Fei's face faded. She did not even want to pretend anymore and looked coldly at Lin Yuelin.
Everyone could feel that the atmosphere between Qin Fei and Lin Yuelin was a little subtle.
Owen could tell from their expressions that he seemed to have asked something he should not have asked. He said, "No matter what kind of person Fei Fei met in the past, it was fortunate that she met him in the end. Ze is a good man."
Owen didn't know why, but after he said that, he felt the atmosphere become even more oppressive.
He looked up at Qin Fei, Soong Ze, and Lin Yuelin. He always felt that there was a story between the three of them, but when he really looked at them, the three of them looked casual, as if they were not familiar with each other.
But Mr. Lin had said that they had a very deep friendship. What kind of friendship was it?
Owen really did not understand this kind of complicated Chinese relationship.
He regretted letting Mr. Lin come, as if he had made everyone unhappy.
Speaking of which, it was also because when they played bridge with each other yesterday, he was very happy when he said Soong Ze would come. Mr. Lin, who did not care about anything, showed great interest in this matter.
Out of courtesy, Owen invited him along.
"Mr. Lin, come, come. I don't know what you like to eat, but this French guy made his own decision." Owen forcefully wanted to resolve the awkward atmosphere.
Even now, he still did not understand why there would be such an awkward situation.
"Don't you like prawns? Why aren't you moving today?"
Qin Fei's head was about to fall into the rice. Her mind was fuzzy like a lump of paste. She thought that Soong Ze was asking her.
"No..." Just as she said the word no, she heard a woman beside her say sweetly, "Lin, you also know that I like prawns. But my newly made nails, how can I peel them?"
Qin Fei then realized that it was Lin Yuelin who was asking about his female companion. Luckily her voice was soft, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
"Lin, peel a prawn for me. I really want to eat it." The woman pressed on, "Hurry up."
Qin Fei thought that Lin Yuelin would definitely flip out according to his character in the past, but she did not expect him to put down the chopsticks in his hands and carefully peel the prawn.
The look in Qin Fei's eyes dimmed, as if during the time she was with Lin Yuelin, there was a period of time where he was also so gentle.
She lightly smiled and poured a bowl of soup into her own bowl, drinking it little by little.
Lin Yuelin was very considerate to the female companion beside him. He took care of her very well. Even when Lin Yuelin's face was cold, there were still many women rushing forward, not to mention him who was so gentle. This woman was about to melt into Lin Yuelin's gentleness. How could she want to eat anything now? She just wanted to eat him.
"Sheng, don't just drink the soup. You need to eat more meat dishes. If you continue to lose weight like this, I will feel sorry for you." Soong Ze had been talking to Owen the whole time. While they were talking, he looked at the empty bowl in front of Qin Fei. Thus, he picked up some food for Qin Fei.
Qin Fei did not reject anyone. No matter what food Soong Ze picked up, she would stuff it into her mouth. In any case, whatever she ate now was the same taste, so what was the difference between what she ate and what she ate?
"I want to go to the bathroom." Qin Fei could not bear to listen to the laughter around her and got up from her seat.
After Qin Fei left the room, she did not go to the bathroom but left the restaurant.
The night scene in B City was very famous. Standing at the door and looking at the lights and flowing fire in the city, it was incomparably gorgeous.
After Qin Fei successfully left, she sent a message to Soong Ze, saying that she had left. Soong Ze did not ask her why. How could he not understand her? Lin Yuelin was right beside her. How could she pretend that nothing happened?
Although the dining hall was remote, it was not far from Soong Ze's villa. Qin Fei's mind was in a mess, and she wanted to blow the wind, so she decided to walk back. Not long after she walked, she heard the sound of the whistle behind her.
Qin Fei felt that it was ear-piercing. She could not help but look back and saw a black car stop beside her.
"What are you standing there for? Get in the car." The window in the back seat fell down and Lin Yuelin's face was revealed.
Qin Fei was shocked when she saw that it was Lin Yuelin, but she turned around and left.
"Qin Fei, as a mother, are you so cruel? Don't tell me you don't want children when you have a husband? Do you know how much Sheng misses you? Don't you want to see her when you come back?"
Lin Yuelin's gaze seemed to want to poke a hole in Qin Fei's back. ...
When she heard Qin Sheng's name, Qin Fei's footsteps seemed to be filled with lead. It was so heavy that she could not take another step.
"So you are Sheng's beautiful mother. You are really very beautiful." Qin Fei was about to get into the car, but she heard a woman's voice coming from the car.
Qin Fei's face darkened. She turned around and said seriously, "It is too late now. I will go look for her tomorrow."
"Beauty, Sheng really misses you. Come back with us."
"She is used to being heartless. Let's go."
So the car quickly disappeared in the night.
When Qin Fei returned home, Soong Yuan had already fallen asleep. Because Lin Yuelin was there, Qin Fei did not have enough to fill her stomach. She wanted to cook some noodles for herself but also felt that it was troublesome. So she simply poured a cup of milk and went to Soong Ze's study.
Soong Ze used to be a cultured person, so he collected a lot of famous works that were out of print. Qin Fei had always been interested in his study. If there was anything, she could stay for an entire day.
When Soong Ze returned, he went straight to the study and knocked on the door. "Fei Fei, you haven't slept so late. You are still absorbing spiritual food."
"When did you come back?" Qin Fei was lost in her reading. She had no idea when Soong Ze had appeared.
