Chapter 98 - The New "Home"

Zheng Yanhong was still singing happily upstairs. He forced herself to calm down, to calm her beating heart, and carefully listen to her words: "Because we were fated to meet in this life, let me make a wish for you, at the most beautiful moment in the grassland, to accompany you and look at the grassland …"

Her voice was magnetic and bright. Singing this kind of prairie song was very suitable, and she inadvertently sang out the concept of being bold, unrestrained, and gentle. Her singing was not fake, and was just that simple, sweet, and careless of a tune, causing the black air on Lin Maoren's face to gradually fade, his stern face also becoming gentler, thinking that this could be a useless villain like Ma Huimin causing trouble, his baby wouldn't be a chaotic woman.

However, he still looked at his watch. It had been six minutes since the text message, and his eyes turned cold as he quickly ran down the stairs to the living room and grabbed the woman's phone. He then quickly went upstairs and behind the woman, he heard her sing, "Look at the green grass, look at the blue sky, look at the long and long road, it's all connected to my longing …"

He gently smiled and said, "Baby, wait until next spring. When the flowers bloom, I will accompany you to see the grassland."

Zheng Yanhong happily smiled and nodded her head, but Lin Maoren acted as if he was passing her phone over casually, casually placing her phone on the rattan tea table beside the rocking chair, while walking in front of her and holding her in his arms, secretly looking at his watch, the needle had already slowly moved to the ten minute mark!

He felt his heart beating quickly, and hoped that Zheng Yanhong's phone would not ring, causing the two of them to indulge themselves in their own world, but he also hoped that the phone would ring on time so that he could get a better understanding of her true appearance.

While he was in a dilemma, the time was up! As if the spirit demon's enchantment had been activated, Zheng Yanhong's phone rang. Although the bell was a melodious flute sound, when it stopped in Lin Maoren's ears, it was as if an ear-piercing electric saw had cut off his nerves!

"Baby, your phone call. Answer it, don't affect your work." He didn't know how to control his tone, but he was actually very considerate and gentle as he said that. As he spoke, he took the phone and stuffed it into Zheng Yanhong's hands.

Right, there was no reason for her to not be happy. She was facing a misty lake, and in front of her was a refined house, and there was even a man who loved her as if his life depended on it being gently embraced by her. This kind of happiness, even if it was stolen, would still captivate one's soul!

When she heard him ask her to pick up the phone, she felt an inexplicable tension in her heart, as if she sensed that this phone was out of place. She grabbed it without even looking at it and was about to hang up, saying, "I'm not going to pick up anyone's phone, I have to get off work too!"

However, Lin Maoren's gentle yet determined voice stopped her from hanging up the phone. "Accept. Don't delay your life just because of me."

Then, just as Zheng Yanhong was staring blankly at her, he had already helped her pick up the phone, and put the phone close to her ear. Because she was in his embrace, the phone was still in his hand for her to pick up, so it was the same as answering the phone for herself.

Zheng Yanhong said in a soft, perturbed voice. She was so nervous that she actually felt guilty, as if his husband had caught him red-handed. She had been secretly praying that it wouldn't be Zhu Changshan reporting the results of the investigation.

Who would have thought that her prayers were answered? It really wasn't Zhu Changshan's call, but it was even worse than Zhu Changshan's. Zhao Shensan's gentle and loving shout came from inside, "Sister Zheng, I'm Three!"

Her mind buzzed … She felt that he was actually saying that she had entrusted the task to Zhu Changshan, which made her even more worried. Could it be that Zhu Changshan was also an unreliable person? He actually told her mission to Zhao Shensan so carelessly?

Lin Maoren's face was already extremely pale.

"Like water" meant that there was no expression on his face.

The previous tenderness had disappeared, but there was no rage, jealousy, or hatred that should have appeared. It was just like a clear pool of jade water without any ripples. However, it was a deep, dark blue color, and he didn't know how deep it was. Was there a huge tsunami lurking underneath? Once it was activated, it would destroy everything.

"Baby, you still have things to do, do you need someone else to do for you? And I think the two of us have already discussed this' three 'once. Of course, you already said that when I fell in love with you, you were you. You had a family, you had children, maybe … There are other lovers … But... Sigh! You don't have to be responsible for anything you do before you belong to me, and I don't want to pursue it. But, since the first time we made love, I have treated you as my partner, even I couldn't help but to be jealous of your husband, but today this' 3 'called me again, and even affectionately called you Sister Zheng. I think a pure subordinate shouldn't call you this way right? Do you have a better explanation for me today? "

Lin Maoren was exactly this kind of person. Even though he was extremely furious in his heart, the words he spoke were still completely expressionless, let alone going into a rage. Even the arm he hugged Zheng Yanhong with was still soft and warm.

However, his words were still like sharp daggers that stabbed into Zheng Yanhong's heart, making it hard for her to reply in that moment. She stubbornly became silent, but Lin Maoren did not press her, and continued to hug her, staring gloomily at the distant lake.

Zheng Yanhong's heart was filled with chaotic thoughts, and a moment later, she felt that since he had already been seen through by Yun Che, she might as well just scatter it with a slap, and avoid being caught by Yun Che like this and making it difficult for him to lie on her bed. At one moment, she felt that no matter what, this person's love for her was genuine. Wasn't it disgraceful for him to just leave like that? And now that she had left, it was equivalent to him choosing Zhao Shensan and abandoning him. Then as an extremely conceited Party Secretary, how could he let Zhao Shensan go? Although this young man was already a wild-goose chase to her, he had still served her loyally for a long time. How could he bear to let her take revenge on his behalf?

And … The most important thing was that she was still working in the Yun Capital, and had already fallen out with Gao Mingliang. If she offended Lin Maoren again, then the room would become even narrower, and the speed at which she moved forward could be imagined.

It was thanks to Lin Maoren being an extremely arrogant person, that he did not force Zheng Yanhong with his scheming mind and self-control. Instead, he had waited for her to give him an explanation, which gave him ample time.

"Let's talk about this' three 'first." Zheng Yanhong withdrew her eyes from the lake and looked at Lin Maoren. She did not feel guilty and struggled out of his embrace, rather, she turned her body over, with her head on his thigh, she looked at the white clouds flying in the sky and gently said. "This youngster's meaning to me is indeed not as simple as being a subordinate.

Lin Maoren looked at her calm face, and the anger in his heart just now had turned into pain. Listening to her shamelessly say that her relationship with a lowly subordinate was abnormal, according to his nature, he would have long wanted to kick his down, then wash his sleeves and go back to her to explain!

But, he didn't dare! He was also reluctant to part with it! Even though he hated himself for being unable to let her off the hook as he grew older, he still understood how much this woman meant to him. If he lost her, what would be his fate?

Thus, although he was unwilling and suppressed, he could only listen …

"You know what kind of woman I am, and my arrogance was the one you couldn't stand, so you should know better under what conditions I would allow a man to approach me! Speaking of which, the fact that Zhao Shensan can acknowledge me as his sworn sister is a chance that you, First Secretary Lin, have given him! " A hint of ridicule surfaced on Zheng Yanhong's lips.

"Me? "Why?" Lin Maoren asked.

"Hmph hmph, if you did not trigger Yang Qianli to frame me with me and even had the Commission for Discipline Inspection inspect me, how would I have taken the risk to trust Zhao Shensan when I felt like I was being besieged from all sides? It was him who bore the pressure to bear all of the responsibility for me, it was him who had allied with the society to uncover Yang Qianli and the rest's conspiracy, and it was him who found the evidence of them framing me at this crucial moment, thus I was able to take that evidence to the province to declare injustice … Secretary Lin, I find it strange that you keep on saying that you love me, why don't you ask me about how I dodged all of your attacks? Do you really think that just by relying on my uncle's strength, the provincial leaders would believe my excuse and force you to release me? " The reason why Zheng Yanhong was able to speak so fluently and speak with such rationality was because she had spoken from the bottom of her heart, and was also the main reason why she had always lingered between love and hate with Lin Maoren. It was such a rare opportunity for her to have such a big heart today, so she naturally spoke to the point of making her heart tremble, naturally speaking to the extreme.

"Ever since this matter, I have told Zhao Shensan, that in this life, I will take care of him as my blood sister. Because of my trust in him, I affectionately called him 'Three', and he just called me 'Sister Zheng'. As for … Why did I wake up in the middle of the night and feel like I didn't know where I was, couldn't see any light, couldn't hear any sound, so I called out his name, I thought... Perhaps it was in my subconscious mind, when I was chased by you until I had nowhere to run, it was as frightening as a pitch black night. However, Zhao Shensan happened to be the person who brought me out of the darkness, and subconsciously cried incorrectly! "

As Lin Maoren listened, his expression finally changed from wooden to carrying a trace of guilt.

"Ever since last time in Zhu Yang, when you used this matter to criticize me and even bore a grudge against my body's scars and were too lazy to even touch me for an entire night, I understood that you despised me and despised me for not being a clean and clean woman that belongs to you. Yes, why should I have to belong to you alone? I, Zheng Yanhong, had already lived my own life before I met you. Furthermore, ever since I was young, I had always liked to be independent and independent, and I was never a little girl who could completely give up on my work and be raised by you while using a golden silk cage. I want to use my own ability to work as a showcase of myself, to live up to my true nature and meaning. Love, what a small part of my life! He had married Fan Qianjin's parents, so after all these years, there was no love between them. Why do you have to dazzle my eyes with love, and then restrict my actions with a husband's monopoly? So... "Forget it!"

After Zheng Yanhong finished speaking, she finally let out a sigh of relief and sat up, gently freeing herself from Lin Maoren's embrace, and sat down on the other side of the rocking chair. He looked at with regret in his eyes and said: "MaoRen, I'll call you that one last time … I'm going. From this moment onwards, you are Secretary Lin and I am Zheng Yanhong. It's better if we don't get together … "

After she finished speaking, she wanted to stand up, but Lin Maoren suddenly stopped her. She thought that he was still like last time, begging her after seeing that she was about to leave, wanting to wait for him to coax her, before deciding whether to stay or not. Who knew that he would actually use a calm tone to ask: "Then who was the Big Brother Zhu that you three brothers spoke of just now? What did you ask him to do? "

Disappointed, Zheng Yanhong immediately became discontented and flung his hands away: "Secretary Lin Maoren, don't forget, even if I am your wife or lover, I should still have my own privacy, so if I don't want to tell you this, you don't need to put in the effort to ask! In short, what I, Zheng Yanhong, can do is not to rebel against the Party, nor is it to break the law, there's no need for me to look for you, a Party Secretary, to pay so much attention. Humph! If you want to find a woman who sees you as heaven, I think Ma Huimin will definitely be willing to do so! If you had been nicer to her, she wouldn't have gone against me all the time! "

"Baby, don't you really care about our feelings? He said that he was going to leave so easily, that he was going to leave just like that, that he was going to leave just like that, and that he wouldn't mind pushing me over to Ma Huimin? "In your heart, other than being a boss who used his power to force you to submit, I really don't have anything that is worthy for you to stay for?" Lin Maoren said faintly as he watched Zheng Yanhong walk down the stairs after she finished speaking, not stopping her in the slightest.

His words were even more touching than standing up and pulling on Zheng Yanhong's heart. She stood there in contradiction, not moving for a long time with her back towards him. I hate the time when we were unmarried... MaoRen, you can't deny that we are both too unfamiliar with matters of extramarital feelings, and have not thought of a state where love can not deteriorate but not affect each other, so … When we're together, we'll only hurt each other. If this goes on, we'll grind down our feelings that were originally hard to come by … "Rather than two hedgehogs getting closer and closer to each other and getting stabbed, why don't we split up for a while and let everyone think about what to do next …"

After she finished speaking, she still went downstairs, while Lin Maoren just blankly continued to sit there, until the woman walked out of the courtyard door, followed the cement road to the lakeshore, and then slowly walked along the lakeshore.

The wind by the lake was very strong, and even though there was a sun, the woman was still somewhat cold. She buttoned up her windbreaker, but her big bottom was swollen by the wind into a light purple trumpet flower. The faintly discernible stockings on her snow-white calves could not resist the cold.

A jeep drove by. A sharp whistle came from the window. It stopped beside the woman as if the person inside said something. The woman raised her head and continued walking with disdain.

Lin Maoren, who was upstairs, had been looking at her the whole time. At this moment, he suddenly recalled the flirting at the peaceful intersection, and remembered that other than the owner's card, cars outside were not allowed to enter the place. Furthermore, there was a three kilometre wide lake road from here to the street where there was a taxi.

The heartache he felt made him suppress the humiliation of being mercilessly abandoned by this woman several times. He quickly went downstairs to catch up with her and coldly said, "If you don't want to be taken advantage of by those upstarts, get in the car."

Seeing his expression, Zheng Yanhong suddenly laughed.

The noon sun shone on her face, causing her tender and rosy cheeks to be as tender as a peony flower. She lifted her hand to brush her long hair that was blown by the wind, mischievously biting her captivating red lips, tilted her head and said, "So what if I tease you? This proves that I am good-looking, and that I might like to be taken advantage of! "

"Damn girl, get in the car!"

Zheng Yanhong turned around and secretly laughed again. In truth, she was feeling really happy, but no matter what, she was very satisfied with Lin Maoren's love for her. In addition, she couldn't take it anymore, so she obediently got on the car.

Along the way, neither of them said anything. When they reached the street, Zheng Yanhong said, "I just called for my driver to come and pick me up. I'll have to trouble Secretary Lin to put me down."

Lin Maoren stopped his car, turned and looked at her: "Baby, I don't want to coax you, and even more so, I don't want to sweetly lie to you. I still have to say the same thing, I will no longer chase after everything that happened to you before I told you, but from now on, I will order you to not involve any other man other than Fan Qianjin, and even more so, you should not think of escaping from me. You can go. I'll give you time to think about it, but don't count on it for too long, because I'll miss you. "

Zheng Yanhong's heart was still as conflicted and sweet as ever. She got off the car after getting off, but Lin Maoren was even more straightforward. She immediately drove away.

Zheng Yanhong sat on a bench by the side of the road, her hands supporting her chin, she was filled with confusion. She herself also could not understand what kind of feeling she had towards Lin Maoren!

She didn't allow herself to indulge in such incomprehensible matters. She just shook her head and thought to herself, "Who cares? Let's just watch and see!" Let me ask Xiao Zhao first why he want to know.

And this time, when Zheng Yanhong called Zhao Shensan and wanted to ask him what was going on, it was Zhao Shensan's turn to tell her in a hurry as if it wasn't convenient for him to call her, so she hung up immediately. This caused the woman to feel even more uncomfortable, and it just so happened that Xiao Yan drove over, and then dejectedly got on the car to go to work.

Then what was Zhao Shensan doing now?

After Zhu Changshan had left earlier, Zhao Shensan looked at the almost untouched dishes and wine on the table and used the alcohol to give Sun Tingdong a call, telling him that he had something important to discuss.

Sun Tingdong acted as if he did not want to come out, as an excuse to shirk away. But Zhao Shensan said that it was Ma Huimin who had arranged for him to meet his, so Sun Tingdong could not ignore her, and rushed over in a hurry.

When Zhao Shensan saw Sun Tingdong coming over, he remembered that back then, in order to protect Huang Haiju, he had purposely made things difficult for him in front of everyone, and also remembered that when he had wanted to divide the houses, Sun Tingdong had purposely made things difficult for him. Now, anyway, they were going to turn hostile, so Zhao Shensan arrogantly waved his hand and said: "Director Sun, sit!"

Sun Tingdong looked at Zhao Shensan who was sitting on the ground with a thorny head, and anger filled his heart. He forcefully pulled a chair over and sat down: "Xiao Zhao, what the hell are you doing? And Director Ma? "

Zhao Shensan laughed arrogantly: "Hahaha! Director Sun, do you think that I do not have enough respect for you? But you must know that respect is something you need to be cultivated for, and you... "Hehe, you are unworthy!"

"Xiao Zhao, you! Are you drunk today? Is there anything wrong? It's nothing, I don't have the time to be mad with you! " Sun Tingdong thought that with just two people, even if they started an argument, he wouldn't gain the upper hand, even if he didn't lose out, it wouldn't be worth it even if he was humiliated. He didn't want to get entangled with a drunkard, so he stood up and left.

"Director Sun, you are very amazing. Back then when Director Zheng was here, you followed him wholeheartedly, but now that Director Ma has arrived, you followed closely behind. It's fine to follow the leader, but it's not right for you to frame Mayor Zheng to please Chairman Ma! Aren't you afraid of retribution if you overdo it? " Zhao Shensan sat there and said sinisterly.

"Zhao Shensan, what nonsense are you spouting? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll slap you! How did I frame Mayor Zheng? " Sun Tingdong finally could not hold it in anymore, slammed the table and roared.

"The Mayor Zheng and the Secretary Lin are friends, it is understandable for him to appear under the residence of the Education Committee in broad daylight, even if you speak of it in broad daylight, it would also explain it clearly. Why do you need to use him as a bargaining chip to please Dean Ma? And you? In the middle of the night, I talked to Big Sister Huang Haiju about work in the meeting room. Since the two of them are not wearing any clothes, it would be hard to explain, right? "

Zhao Shensan's alcoholic smell rose up, mixed with the jealousy that might have been mixed between Zheng Yanhong and the Mayor Lin, making him even more furious, and her words caused Sun Tingdong to be dumbstruck.

"Xiao Zhao, you can eat whatever you want, can't you spout nonsense. What nonsense were you spouting just now? When did I use the matter of Director Zheng and Secretary Lin to curry favor with Director Ma? What's more, Secretary Lin is a Party Secretary, I don't even know what's going on with them. And what did you say about Huang Haiju and me? You... If you have any objections to me, we can speak of it openly. Don't use something like that to slander me! " Sun Tingdong was shocked. Smoke rose from his forehead as he sat down and said anxiously.

"Hahaha!" Director Sun, since you say you don't know what I mean, then how do you know that the Secretary Lin I'm talking about is Party Secretary Lin Maoren? Wasn't this equivalent to admitting defeat? As for the matter between you and Big Sis Huang, I've been hiding it for you guys for a long time. If you don't believe me, why don't I show you the recording? That night when you took a taxi back from the train station and cursed at me so the whole school could laugh at you! " Zhao Shensan thought that since his face had already been torn, he could only reveal his trump card.

Sun Tingdong's face immediately became uglier than a pig's liver. He looked at Zhao Shensan with his mouth wide open, as if he wanted to pounce over and strangle him to death. However, he did not dare to do so in the end.

However, Zhao Shensan acted as if he was a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs, and even calmly and gently shook his feet. In fact, he also felt that it was really unbearable in his heart, and felt that he had already promised Huang Haiju that he would not leak any information about this matter.

But... Big Brother Zhu was right, this world was a world where honest people were at a disadvantage. If he did not lose the decadent concept of "righteousness, courtesy, and wisdom", then he would only be suppressed by others his entire life.

"Xiao Zhao..." Looking at his assured appearance, and even talking about the time and place of their reunion, Sun Tingdong was clearly aware that he said there was a recording, and there might even be a recording, but he had no choice but to soften his tone and say: "I also unintentionally discovered that Secretary Lin actually sent Director Zheng home early in the morning and even affectionately helped her put on her clothes. I felt that it was strange, but when I chatted with Dean Ma, I unintentionally told her, 'Where are you using this to fawn over Dean Ma? I am not a child, Department Head Ma is one level lower than Mayor Zheng, wouldn't I be considered insignificant compared to Secretary Lin? How could I be so stupid as to touch a stone with an egg? He really accidentally leaked it! Brother Xiao Zhao, although we had conflicts before, but I have been good to you since then right? Don't misunderstand me, you're not going to get along with me! "
