Lin Xiaoxiao retracted his gaze, his face revealing a faint suspicion, he lowered his head and continued to taste the delicious food in his bowl.
Jin Beishan took note of the expression on her face, and waited for the few people at the door to leave, before he opened his mouth and said: "Those two men in City G were specially involved in complex investigations."
"Investigation?" Lin Xiaoxiao suspected that this was the first time he had heard of this profession.
"Mhmm." Jin Beishan drank a mouthful of soup, and said indifferently: "There are many private investigators in G City that specifically collect money from others to help them get rid of disasters."
"Kill him to silence him?" Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned.
Hearing that, Jin Beishan hurriedly shook his head. No, no. For example, there were couples who wanted to divorce each other, but no one wanted the other to take over more property. So hire a private investigator, follow the other person, investigate the evidence of the other person's cheating, and then face the court. "
"Oh." Lin Xiaoxiao was deep in thought. What kind of husband and wife would need the help of such an organization? He suddenly thought about it, back then she and Jin Beichuan had not been married yet. If it was a divorce involving his family property, would he invite people like that to work for him?
Lin Xiaoxiao could imagine the kind of icy cold marriage that would happen when a Wealthy Class family would have their grudges and grievances after their passionate retreat. They would shiver each other down, and torture each other to death. To the last step of recrimination, and finally to the court...
Fortunately, she and Jin Beichuan had not reached that step. It ended before the wedding. Her long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering up the complicated emotions in her eyes.
Jin Beishan did not notice the smile on her face. He continued, "The detective agency set up by those two individuals is very famous in City G. It was once said that there was nothing impossible about it. As long as your front is in place. "
So that's how it was! Lin Xiaoxiao nodded. No wonder those two men earlier gave people a very sharp feeling. But why were they staring at him?
That gaze always gave people an uncomfortable feeling. It was as if they knew her. When one of them saw her, he used his eyes to inform the other that she was here.
After eating the mutton soup, the two bid each other farewell. When Lin Xiaoxiao returned home, it was already 12. He felt like he had just showered and fell asleep exhausted.
In this period of time, Lin Xiaoxiao had been very busy. Xia Moer saw the overtime work day and night and was worried. Who could afford to live a life where there wasn't even a day off?
Every time she was filled with righteous indignation and went to see the CEO to review, she would be stopped by Lin Xiaoxiao. It was useless to talk about it. This was the man's intention in the first place.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that it was alright, the only one who felt apologetic was the Dabao. Whenever she came back late in the morning, Dabao would already be asleep. She gently pushed open the child's door and sat beside Dabao. Borrowing the gentle orange light, she stared at Dabao's peaceful and young sleeping face.
He extended his hand and caressed the center of Dabao's brow. Dabao had handsome facial features since he was young, and his appearance was extremely good. Sister Li kept saying this, that when Dabao grows up in the future, he will definitely be a beautiful man that is rarely seen in a hundred years. Every time she said this, Lin Xiaoxiao would feel that it was too exaggerated.
Now that he had a closer look, it really was true. These handsome eyebrows looked like they had been touched by ink. His small nose was small and straight. His lips were very thin. The color of his lips was very bright. It was as if they had been dyed red.
Gradually, she had an illusion. Between this child's brows, there was a faint shadow of Jin Beichuan. Even she was shocked by this feeling.
He hurriedly stood up and wanted to return to his room to rest. The little guy moaned in his sleep and turned around. Then, he kicked the light yellow bedsheet to the side with his meaty legs.
Lin Xiaoxiao shook his head and walked over, helping him cover himself with the blanket. As he turned his head, he suddenly heard the little fellow talking in his sleep.
"Mama Xiao … Why aren't you home yet... Eating with Dabao... Dabao misses her mother … "
The voice was not loud, but it was as soft as a mosquito's voice, and floated into Lin Xiaoxiao's ears. Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes. His shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably.
She couldn't bear to leave, so she snuggled down beside Dabao and slept with him. During the night, the little guy talked in his sleep a few more times, among which were Lin Xiaoxiao, Sister Li, and even Jin Beichuan.
"..." young mother, Dabao has missed young father … When will young father return … "
Every time he spoke of this, Lin Xiaoxiao would feel his heart trembling in pain. Ye Zichen leaned over and hugged his precious son tightly in his arms. Even after all these years had passed, he still had not been able to give Dabao a proper home. This was what she owed him the most in her entire life.
The next day. Lin Xiaoxiao woke up early and personally went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Dabao. Then, he accompanied Dabao to finish breakfast and sent him to the kindergarten. Only then, did he rush back to the company.
Those who were in a hurry were still a bit late. The meeting was already going on, and she excused herself and went over. The meeting had ended. Department Head Liu's face darkened, he asked arrogantly: "Director Lin, wait a moment."
When the surrounding people heard this, they looked at Lin Xiaoxiao. Among them, some revealed a look of worry while others gloated. Lin Xiaoxiao had long gotten used to it.
"Director Lin, I am not talking about you. Do you think you're still the same person? How could he be late? What do you think this place is, a market? "If you want to come, you can come. If you want to leave, you can leave?"
Minister Liu reprimanded him. It could be said that he was being impartial and did not acknowledge him as his own family. How could he still remember how he fawned over this subordinate? In the end, he raised an eyebrow and said, "I'll remember this time. The Finance Department will deduct your bonus, this month's salary, and …"
Department Head Liu, who had a scolding look a moment ago, lifted his eyes. When his eyes saw the person walking over, they suddenly opened wide as if they had seen the first light of dawn, and a flattering smile appeared on his face.
"Vice President." He took a few steps forward and greeted them, "Vice President, do you have any orders?"
Jin Beishan saw that there was only Lin Xiaoxiao on the long corridor, and also saw that she had his head lowered, waiting to be scolded. His thin lips slightly parted as he asked, "Division Minister Liu, what are you doing?"
Department Head Liu laughed, "Oh, I'm talking about Director Lin, she was actually late today."
"Hmm?" Hearing that, Jin Beishan was so pleased that he started to frown. That tone of his carried some confusion, and said: "I remember that Department Head Liu is also a Division Minister, and Director Lin is also a Division Minister. Since their identities are the same, then may I ask, what qualifications do you have to reprimand someone of the same rank and rank as you? "
"Uh, this …" Department Head Liu was momentarily at a loss for words.
Jin Beishan continued to maintain his sullen face, and spoke out: "Also, I called Director Lin over for some matters today, which is why I delayed coming to attend the gathering. What, Department Head Liu, are you going to scold me as well? "
