Zhang Yanzhen concentrated on driving, glancing at the rearview mirror from time to time.
Zhao Yilin was holding the book < The Overbearing CEO's Darling Wife > in her hands. She thought of what her girlfriend had said to her after the second male lead had kicked her.
"Xiaolan, in the two years we've been together, I've given you everything you wanted. I've never said a word of no. Is there a need to be so stubborn?"
"I've done it a few times with her, but it was only physical. The one I love is still you, only you. This can't be considered as cheating."
"Heh." Zhao Yilin couldn't help but laugh, startling Zhang You.
"Eli, did you fight?"
"Nope."
"What happened? You look like you have nothing to live for? "
Zhao Yilin didn't answer, her head hanging on the sofa.
Zhang Youzhen said, "You can tell this benefactor of mine."
The word 'benefactor' made Zhao Yilin feel relieved. She took a deep breath and said, "I'm jealous. I kicked over the jar of vinegar. Now, I'm drowning myself."
Zhang You pursed his lips into a smile, and dimples appeared on his forehead. "You're still in the mood to joke? It looks like it's nothing serious."
"I just don't understand. I know he has so many ex-girlfriends, but why am I jealous? I'm jealous, but I don't know how to face it. Ah, my heart feels so bad, as if there's a small fire burning inside. It's so painful that I can't even breathe, and I can't die. "
Zhang You saw her holding her forehead in distress, the smile on his face dimmed a lot. "It's only natural to be jealous. You once said, you're not a strong person, so why do you have to force yourself to do strong things?"
Zhao Yelin looked at her cellphone. After she left the airport, she sent Huo Yelin a message informing him that she was safe. Half an hour had passed, yet Huo Yelin had not even sent her a reply, let alone a phone call.
Annoyed, she buried her face in her knees.
The black van moved at lightning speed along the highway. In the blink of an eye, it was out of the airport loop and disappeared from sight.
Zhao Yilin went back to her old apartment. When the door was opened, she was stunned. Even Zhang You, who sent her back home, was speechless.
The room was empty. All the furniture had disappeared. There were some "useless" trash scattered on the floor. Red rays of light shone into the living room and could be seen densely floating in the air.
Zhao Yilin dropped her handbag on the floor and walked into the room in disbelief.
Not only the living room, but also the two bedrooms, the kitchen, and the bathroom. All the furniture and supplies had been removed, leaving only an empty shell, a soulless corpse.
"How could this be?" Zhao Yilin stood in the middle of the living room and felt like fainting. Zhang Yanzhen took her in his arms.
"Maybe there was some misunderstanding. I thought your uncle would sell the house because you didn't live here anymore."
Zhao Yilin leaned on his shoulder, tears welling up in her eyes. "This is my first home. I don't want to sell it no matter how much money we have in the future. Is money really that important to them? "
Zhang You really patted her on the back and said, "Eli, let's go get the house back."
"Alright."
Zhao Yilin and Zhang Yizhen drove to Lin City's uncle's house without delay.
Zhao Yilin touched her handbag. Inside, there was a real estate certificate with her name on it and a bank card in it. She had enough money to buy the house back.
She had grown up in her uncle's house all these years, and she had never forgotten the kindness of having children. Because of this, she would never allow them to ruin her happiness.
When the van stopped, Zhao said, "Ah Zhen, wait for me here."
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
Zhao Yilin gritted her teeth, opened the car door and stepped into the corridor. Zhang Yanzhen got out of the car and leaned against the door of the car, staring up at the window of the 12th floor, which was glowing with white light.
When their uncle and aunt found out the reason for Zhao Yilin's visit, their expressions turned grim.
Zhao Yilin calmly sat on the couch in the living room and said, "I've disturbed your rest by coming over so late at night."
His uncle smiled. "It's fine. Do you want some fruits?"
Zhao Yilin shook her head. "We are family, after all. I don't want to lie in front of you. I'm here for the house."
Aunt smirked contemptuously, sat down opposite her, and said: "That's good, your uncle and I were just about to go look for you. "Now that you've moved away, we'd like to sell the house and leave it empty.
His uncle said, "That's right. Since you're not living here, what's the point of keeping it?"
"This house is my first home," said Zhao. "It's very emotional, and I really don't want to sell it. Uncle, Aunt, I should have repaid you for raising me for so many years. "
She took out a bank card from her bag and placed it on the tea table, then said, "This card contains 500,000 yuan, not much. I can only express my gratitude."
Aunt's eyes lit up and she reached for it.
"I just want to go back to that room," Zhao Yilin said, pressing his hand down.
Uncle and Aunt looked at each other, ashamed and helpless.
"Eli, it's not that we don't want to give it back to you but the house has been sold."
"He sold it!"
Zhao Yilin was so angry that her head was buzzing. "Uncle, who did you sell the house to? Give me the number and I'll talk to him. "
His uncle said awkwardly, "The buyer said it was for a friend. The people who came to take care of the formalities were all lawyers. I've never seen them before."
"Then give me the lawyer's number!" Zhao Yilin ordered anxiously.
Aunt was displeased. She rolled her eyes and said, "It's only a house. Is it that big of an exaggeration? Your uncle and I seem to have done something wicked. Your uncle's company has been losing heavily these past few years. It's one thing if you don't help them, but you actually did something that would embarrass us. "What is your relationship with the young master of the Huo family? If you can't marry him, then forget it. I don't want to be talked about as soon as I leave the house."
Upon hearing Huo Yelin's name, Zhao Yelin couldn't help but cry. Seeing this, her uncle hurriedly tried to comfort her.
Zhao Yilin forcefully wiped away her tears and said, "Uncle, please give me your lawyer's card."
"Hey, I'll go get it."
Aunt gave her a contemptuous look. "From the looks of it, he doesn't do much to you either. Hurry up and get rid of him so Aunt can find you something serious." "What's so good about being with a man like that? Think about your mom, you're still going to die from the anger of a mistress."
Zhao Yilin stood up abruptly and shouted angrily, "Auntie, you can call me that! Scolded me! Hit me!" But don't talk about my mother! "
"Hey, how dare you talk back to your elders like that!"
Uncle took his business card and ran out of the room, saying: "Jin Yan, don't talk so much, the child is already feeling uncomfortable!"
Aunt was so angry that she jumped up and down, "How can I not be angry? If she didn't hook up with that Huo Yelin, would we be gossiped about? "
"I'll be leaving first." Zhao Yilin picked up her bag and ran away. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhang Yanzhen standing in the hallway, looking at him silently.
"Eli."
Zhang You saw her expression and rushed forward to hold her hand. "What's wrong?" They won't give the house back? "
Zhao Yilin didn't say anything. She leaned against his shoulder sobbing and said in a low voice, "They sold the house to someone. I hate them. I hate them!"
Zhang You sighed and held her tight.
The window at the end of the corridor was wide open, and a bright moon hung in the sky. It was quiet and sad.
That night, Yi Lin Zhao lived in Zhang You Zhen's apartment.
Early the next morning, she called Lawyer Chen and asked who the house had been sold to.
Lawyer Chen thought for a moment, then said, "Do not easily disclose the customer's personal information, this is the rule of our industry, please forgive me. However, I can pass on your request to the buyer. If he agrees, can I contact you again? "
Zhao Yilin knew that this was the best he could do, so she said, "Okay, please contact him as soon as possible. This is my cell phone number, you can call me anytime."
Zhang Yanzhen walked out of the kitchen, placed his breakfast on the table and asked, "How is it?" Can you find out who the buyer is? "
"He said he would tell the buyers about my situation," Zhao Yilin said. "We'll have to wait for the news."
She put down the phone and sat down on the sofa.
Zhang Youzhen said, "Don't worry, your offer is tempting. No one will refuse it. Come, let's have breakfast."
Zhao Yilin pursed her lips into a smile, stood up and walked to the dining table to have breakfast with Zhang Youzhen.
"What are you going to do today?"
A wry smile crept onto Zhao Yilin's lips as she thought about it. "I really don't know what to do. It'll be a few days before they can contact me at the costumes."
Zhang Youzhen said, "I'm going to the movies this afternoon to be a martial arts double, do you want to come with me?"
Zhao Yilin's eyes lit up and she laughed, "Great!" I've always wanted to see you at work, but I've never had a chance. Oh right, let me be your assistant today. I'll buy coffee, fan you, and give you the paper to smoke. "
She patted her chest, as if everything was up to me.
Zhang Ye was smiling, and his eyes unconsciously focused on her …
At the same time, Huo Yelin had finished holding his weekly meeting and was striding out of the meeting room. His expression was still the same as before, as if he did not want anyone else to enter.
Little Dou went up and handed the documents over to him, saying, "Boss Huo, the chairman just called again, asking about the matter with Huo Ning. He sounded very agitated."
Huo Yelin quickly and carefully scanned through the information before signing and saying, "Arrange a car and prepare some snacks that Grandpa likes to eat. I'll go see him tonight."
"Yes." With lowered eyes, Dou Dou quickly followed by his side, as if she knew he still had something to say.
After signing a stack of documents, Huo Yelin tapped lightly on the tip of his pen and asked, "Is there nothing else?"
Dou Dou swallowed her saliva and replied, "No."
The atmosphere around Huo Yelin instantly dropped by a few degrees. He handed the documents in his hand to Dou Dou and said, "Call those managers over."
Dou said, "Ah? What did you call them for? "
Huo Yelin turned around and coldly said, "Don't they have any objections to my handling of Qin Shan Shan? Let them come into my office and talk. "
Little Dou shivered. She suddenly thought of something and went close to Huo Yelin's ear to whisper a few words.
Huo Yelin's tightly knitted eyebrows slowly loosened. His tense body relaxed, and he said with a sly smile:
"Oh? If that's the case, then I'll have to busy myself with this matter and have those managers come back to see me later. "
