Chapter 462 His Invitation

Just when Luo Zhen was full of fantasies about the future, the phone rang, seeing Ming's mother's number flashing on the screen, she hummed displeased, and then answered impatiently.

"Luo Zhen," Ming's mother was at home, "I have brought back the clothes you sent for dry cleaning last time and hung them in your closet."

Originally looking forward to the future with great interest, Luo Zhen was a little impatient when interrupted by Mingmu's call, "Understood." She was perfunctory, forgetting all the kindness that Mingmu had treated her in the past.

"What do you want to eat tonight, Mom will go buy it?" Usually Luo Zhen and Ming Hao just eat at home in the morning and evening, but Ming's mother loves her and always asks her opinion first.

In the past, Luo Zhen was never polite, she just said what she liked to eat, of course, she didn't consider whether it was suitable for the elderly, nor did she consider whether Minghao liked it.

"Luo Zhen, is your head still hurting?" Ming's mother asked again with concern. Last night she smelled the strong smell of alcohol on Luo Zhen's body. It seems that she must have drunk a lot. This morning, she again Finding that Luo Zhen's complexion is not very good, she is very worried.

But Luo Zhen felt that she was annoying and was thinking about it, so she didn't speak, hung up the phone annoyedly, and then threw the phone on the desk.She patted the table angrily, her eyes fell on Minghao's photo on her desk, she reached out and took the photo in her hand.This photo was specially placed on her desk after she was pregnant with Minghao's child.

Ming Hao, the high-spirited boy in Z Normal University back then, was also the fantasy she loved in her heart. She tried her best to separate her and Le Yao, and managed to get close to him and conceived his child. Yue's life together shattered all the fantasies in her heart, and now she has an indescribable feeling for him.Say no love, but he is the first boy she likes; if say love, but she can't help but always want to torture him mentally.

What should I do?
Luo Zhen pursed her lips, put down the photo, and crossed her hands in front of her chest.Before yesterday, she was absolutely unwilling to let her break up with Ming Hao; but now, she has already set Wen Yunting as her next target, if her relationship with Ming Hao continues like this, won't it become her stumbling block?If Wen Yunting knew that she was living in Ming Hao's house and talked about marriage with him, wouldn't all the bright future she imagined come to naught?

It seems that it is time to deal with this relationship.

In a villa located halfway up the mountain, it was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard.

In the room, the curtains were drawn tightly to block the sunlight from the window, and the room was filled with a strong smell of smoke.

Zuo Baixiao was smoking a cigarette, her squinted eyes were staring at the document in her hand. On the document, Jian Jie, who was wearing a police uniform, looked very energetic. After flipping through the document, he threw it on the table, and then said nothing. Hair, still just smoking a stuffy cigarette, puff after puff, the smell of smoke in the room is getting stronger and stronger.

"He's the task force leader this time." Zhou Le's face is thin, but he looks quite capable, not at all mediocre in a trading company.In this smoky room, he didn't feel dull at all.

Zuo Baixiao pinched the finished cigarette butt into the ashtray, coldly tugged at the corner of his mouth, and the flashing sneer made him look sinister and serious.

"It seems that this time it's for real, otherwise, the criminal police from City C wouldn't be sent here." Zhou Le's brows were tightly knit together, and after hesitating, he said, "Young Master Zuo, I suspect that we have an inner ghost."

The Zuo family is deeply rooted in Z City, and he can enjoy both black and white, from leaders to street gangsters, everyone will give Zuo Baixiao some favors.But this time, the Z City Public Security Bureau was completely unaware of it.Zuo Baixiao frowned slightly, and when he was about to take cigarettes from the cigarette case, he found that the case was empty and he had smoked the whole pack of cigarettes. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

Zhou Le shook his head. He has never smoked, but facing Zuo Baixiao's indifference, he couldn't hold back anymore: "Young Master Zuo, we can no longer be passive. This time, the higher-ups will not let the Z city police Intervene." He said worriedly: "When we were chatting last time, I found out that a hacker had invaded your computer. It seems that some of the information in your computer should have been stolen."

Without a cigarette, Zuo Baixiao looked a little irritable, completely lost his usual composure, "When will the special case team come over?" He still has too many things to deal with, and what he needs most now is time.

"Brother Shan was arrested yesterday," Zhou Le said in a deep voice, "Before, he had a deal with the Zuo family. I'm worried about him..."

Zuo Baixiao's eyes fell on Jian Jie's photo again, but Zhou Jiayi's small and exquisite figure was all in his mind. He remembered that when Jian Jie looked at him at the airport, he offered to reach out his hand, but Jian Jie completely ignored it. Maybe before that, Jane Jie already knew him: "How is she now?"

After Zhou Le was silent, he said: "It's okay." But he still couldn't hold his breath in the end: "Young Master Zuo, the matter is imminent, and there is no further delay. We must find a way to minimize all losses. "

"I know." Zuo Baixiao looked at him with slightly raised eyebrows, opened the cigarette again, subconsciously wanting to smoke again: "There is something that must be done immediately, and I will leave it to you, so I can rest assured."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Le asked. He was from a poor family and had no money to pay tuition fees after being admitted to university. It was Zuo Baixiao who subsidized him to go to university, so he had been secretly helping him with things all this time. The connection between them , and no third person knows.

"In the shortest possible time, go through all the procedures for Le Yao to adopt Doudou," Zuo Baixiao said in a deep voice, "Destroy all the procedures for me to adopt Doudou."

Zhou Le was slightly stunned. He originally thought that what Zuo Baixiao said was going to be an important matter involving Zuo's life and death, but he didn't expect that it was just a transfer of the adoption relationship. He was very puzzled by this: "Le Yao is single, in Legally, adoption is not allowed."

"Laws are dead, people are alive, you don't understand this truth." Zuo Baixiao's eyes were a little cold: "No matter what method you use, this matter must be done as soon as possible."

Zhou Le didn't ask any more questions, but nodded.

Zuo Baixiao handed him a bank card: "Buy a house near Doudou's kindergarten in the name of Le Yao, but you have to tell Le Yao that this house is rented for her. After her limelight passed, I gave her the real estate certificate."

Zhou Le's eyebrows tightened, Zuo Baixiao seemed to be arranging for the funeral, which gave him a bad feeling: "This adoption procedure must be approved by the adopter, in case Le Yao does not agree..."

"She will agree." Zuo Baixiao raised her lips slightly, and warned, "However, you should do this first, and don't tell her for now." Just after he finished speaking, his phone started buzzing.

"Boss, something happened." Nanami's voice came from the other end of the phone. In Zuo Baixiao's impression, Nanami seemed to have never been so flustered.

"What's the matter?" Zuo Baixiao's hoarse voice was as low as ever, as if all the emotions in the previous chat with Zhou Le disappeared in an instant.And Zhou Le, who was opposite him, sat quietly, making no sound except breathing.

"Miss has been arrested."

"What? What happened? How did Youqing get arrested?" Zuo Baixiao was startled, and suddenly stood up, maybe because he stood up too quickly, the chair was shaking empty: "Is there any help from Director Liu?" No?"

"Bureau Liu is on a business trip to City C. The miss is at the hands of the newly transferred Captain Jane this time." Nanami seemed to be breathing unsteadily on the other end of the phone, and was very anxious: "It's okay if it's a normal thing, but this time she Gathered a crowd to take drugs, and everyone at the scene said that the drugs were provided by her."

Zuo Baixiao held his breath, his fingers trembling slightly: "I see." Then he hung up the phone.He looked at Zhou Le, "Jian Jie has come to City Z." After finishing speaking, he thumped his hand heavily on the table. He was always on guard, but he didn't expect that You Qing would take drugs.

Zhou Le was surprised: "Here you come so soon?"

"Youqing was arrested by him." Zuo Baixiao whispered, thinking, and then said: "Zhou Le, it seems that the matter of Le Yao and Doudou can't be delayed any longer, we must start to deal with it immediately."

"Then what about Youqing?" Zhou Le was worried, and it fell into Jian Jie's hands. The matter can be big or small, just in case...

"I have my own way." Zuo Baixiao said in a deep voice, "From now on, don't call me anymore. If there is anything, I will take the initiative to contact you."

"Young Master Zuo!" Zhou Le clearly knew that Zuo Baixiao wanted to distance himself from him, because if something happened to him, the people involved would affect the entire Z city. Can't get rid of it.

"You go first." Zuo Baixiao closed his eyes. So far, he has not reached a desperate situation, but he needs to keep a clear head and be ready for everything that is about to happen.

After Zhou Le left, Zuo Baixiao took out the phone card he bought with a fake ID and made a call: "Jason, I'm Zuo Baixiao. I have no objection to the price you mentioned last time for the transfer of Galaxy Nine Days... "

After hanging up the phone, he dialed Nami again with his usual mobile phone number: "Destroy all the goods, give those people housing expenses, and let them go to other places to avoid the limelight."

"Destroy?" Nami on the other end of the phone was a little surprised: "Boss, once this is destroyed, we will lose a lot of money."

"Hurry up and arrange someone to handle it." Zuo Baixiao said in a deep voice, not allowing her to have any doubts: "For Youqing's matter, you arrange another person to take care of it." Actually, Zuo Youqing's matter is not difficult.What made him almost lose his balance was Jian Jie's sudden arrival and his quick strikes.

Saturday.

Doudou was quietly copying simple cartoon character drawings, while Le Yao was sitting in front of the computer, searching aimlessly on the talent network.Next to the computer is today's newspaper.Recently, Wen Yunting's scandal has appeared in the newspapers almost every day. From the initial bitter pain to now, her heart has been numb from the pain. Except seeing him kissing Wen Meng will make her heart ache, as long as Don't think about him, then her heart will be as calm as water.

Two days ago, a photo of him with another woman appeared in the newspaper. Although the woman had a "mosaic" on her face, Le Yao still recognized that it was Luo Zhen.She is already restraining herself from thinking about everything about him, because no matter what he is, it has nothing to do with her.It was Song Siyu who should be worried and jealous about his scandal, not her, and she... was not qualified.

"Look, Mom." After Doudou showed her the finished painting, she put her chubby little hands behind her back, looking like a little adult.

This is a very simple painting. It draws three sunflowers. The tallest one is on the left, the shorter one is on the right, and the middle one is the smallest. Interestingly, Doudou painted the sunflowers on the human body. The facial features made this simple painting come alive. Looking carefully, the three flowers look like a family of three.

"The painting is good." Le Yao kissed Doudou's cheek, with some encouragement: "Very imaginative, Doudou is awesome, come on."

Doudou smiled, and pointed to the shorter sunflower on the right: "This is Mom, and this is Doudou." Then, she pointed to the tallest one: "This is Dad," her immature tone was full of pride. , "It's Papa Wen."

Le Yao's heart fluttered in an instant, her chest felt suffocated, her brows tightened, and she held back her sour eyes. After a long time, she said, "Didn't Mom say not to mention him again?"

"Papa Wen said that he would take Mommy and me back to the cabin," Doudou said with a hint of wisdom and elves in his eyes, "Mom, Papa Wen won't lie to me, I trust him."

Le Yao's heart tightened slightly, seeing the child's innocent appearance, she felt only bitterness in her heart, "Doudou, children can't lie."

"I didn't lie. Father Wen told me that day in the hospital." Seeing that her mother didn't believe her words, Doudou became anxious, "If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

How could she ask him?The bitterness that had been hidden in Le Yao's heart overflowed.

In the lower right corner of the computer, on the invisible MSN, there are avatars jumping.

Ye【I miss you so much, Le Yao, are you there? I'm looking for you. 】

Le Yao【in】

Ye Hui sent a grinning emoji.

Le Yao [what's the matter? 】

Ye Hui made a lip-smacking expression, followed by [I can't find you if I have nothing to do? 】

Without waiting for Le Yao's answer, Ye Hui cut a photo and posted it in their chat.In the photo, Zuo Baixiao put his arms around Le Yao's shoulders, and Le Yao stood in front of Wen Yunting and Song Siyu holding the expensive but hot potato bouquet in his arms.Looking at this scene, Le Yao's eyes were slightly sour.

Ye Hui sent a snickering emoji [Young man and beautiful woman]

Le Yao's heart tightened slightly, his eyes were fixed on Wen Yunting and Song Siyu, and his fingers on the keyboard responded with difficulty [Really? 】

Ye Hui put her hands over her mouth and smiled again 【What, did you admit it?Hehehe. 】

Only then did Le Yao realize that Ye Hui was talking about her and Zuo Baixiao, she sighed softly in her heart, and replied [Are I with Brother Zuo?Ye Hui, don’t guess, there’s nothing wrong]

Ye Hui [Isn't that what the newspapers say?You still want to hide it from me. (Laughs) Receive the bouquet, and you will be the next bride]

Le Yao is embarrassed, the next bride?Hehe, the title of bride seems too far away from her, too unrealistic, [Do you believe this kind of words? 】

Ye Hui【Hehe, of course.Le Yao, don't try to lie to me, you have moved into Zuo Zhai now, why don't you admit it?By the way, when will your wedding be held]

The friend's words woke up Le Yao like a blow to the head. In the newspapers, her relationship with Zuo Baixiao was exaggerated. As Ye Hui said, she lived in the left house, and others would have daydreams to some extent. These scruples, It was something she hadn't thought about before [Ye Hui, Big Brother Zuo and I really don't have that kind of relationship.I have nowhere to go and he needs someone to help with the kids so I live here. 】

Ye Hui [(confused) Really? 】

Le Yao hurried back【When did I lie to you? 】

After a while, Ye Hui sent a message [(frowned) Le Yao, if you really have nothing to do, you have been living in the left house, it would really be misleading. 】

Le Yao【I'm looking for a job, but I haven't found a suitable one. 】

She has been submitting resumes on the Internet all the time, but nothing has been heard from her. In fact, she is more worried about what will Doudou do after she finds a job?She once promised that the little girl would accompany her, but she really couldn't live in the left house forever, which made her a little embarrassed.

Ye Hui [Are you looking for a job? 】

After a while, Ye Hui sent another message [There is a position that is quite suitable for you. 】

Le Yao frowned slightly, remembering that when Ye Hui helped her find a job last time, she strayed into Lou Mo's room by mistake. That incident became a gray memory that she couldn't erase from her heart.

Ye Hui [Wen's is looking for a secretary, why don't you try it?Your writing is good, you can do it. 】

Wen's?This warm word has become a scar in her heart. She couldn't even hide in time. How could she go back to work? However, she couldn't tell Ye Hui directly about some things, so she continued typing on the keyboard [You forgot, Times Ginza Personnel] There are regulations that resigned employees will never be rehired. 】

Ye Hui [cough cough... this is for the outside world.But you are different. Your mother is Mrs. Wen, and Vice President Wen is your elder brother. 】

elder brother?This word made her eyes ache. After she was silent, she changed the subject [Ye Hui, what about you?How is it going? 】

Ye Hui [It's okay. (shy)】

Le Yao suddenly remembered her love affair with He Haotian, so she sent a message [He Zhuren is good. 】

It took Ye Hui a while to reply to the message [(shy) Hmm. 】

Le Yao [Ye Hui, you must be happy. 】

Ye Hui sent a few shy emoticons in a row, and then cut out a photo. The photo shows Le Yao interviewing Zuo Baixiao [Hehe, this is the sideshow of the Spring and Summer Magazine, Le Yao, this photo Now posted in the cultural gallery. 】

Le Yao looked at herself in the photo who was concentrating on shorthand, such a quiet and peaceful life seemed to be far away from her【Really? 】

Ye Hui [Everyone is full of praise for your writing. A few days ago, Mr. Wen specially asked for Empress Dowager Highlights and Spring and Summer Magazine to read. 】

he?Le Yao's heartbeat accelerated slightly, her hands fell on the keyboard, trembling slightly, but she didn't type a word for a long time, because she didn't know what to say.

Ye Hui [Le Yao, come back to Wen's to work, then we can meet every day and commute together. 】

After Ye Hui sent this message, she didn't get any reply from Le Yao. She frowned slightly, and asked the people around her puzzledly, "Haotian, if Le Yao returns to work in Wen's, is there really no problem?"

He Haotian stood behind her, taking the chat records between her and Le Yao into his eyes. He adjusted his glasses and said, "Just persuade her to come back, and I'll do the rest." However, there are many picky employees. Except for Luo Ying, who has been selected as the secretary, no one else caught his eye.

"Then should I tell her first that she came back to be President Wen's secretary?" Ye Hui asked, "Maybe she knew she was going to be her brother's secretary and agreed right away?"

"Don't talk about it yet." He Haotian said calmly. In the past few days, he thought about it, and it seems that there is no one other than Le Yao who is really suitable to be Wen Yunting's secretary.That's why he asked Ye Hui to test Le Yao's attitude just now.

"It's strange." Ye Hui frowned, "Why doesn't Le Yao live in Wen's house?"

He Haotian patted her on the shoulder, and said affectionately: "Okay, don't think about it, go and change quickly, my parents are waiting for us."

Ye Hui's ears were slightly stained red, and there was a shy smile on the corners of her eyes and brows. She was extremely happy now, and she looked at him slightly.Their relationship developed steadily, and tonight was the first time she saw his parents.

"Still shy?" He Haotian smiled, "Or, do you want me to change it for you?"

Ye Hui's face became hotter and hotter, and after spitting on him lightly, she ran into the bedroom as if fleeing.

*
Le Yao was sitting in front of the computer desk, and the window that popped up was the chat history between Ye Hui and her.She buried her face in her hands and sighed contradictoryly.

After a long time, she closed the chat window with Ye Hui, but the mouse involuntarily moved to Wen Yunting's gray avatar on MSN, holding the mouse with her right hand, her index finger wanted to click on his avatar, but she finally let go.Just when she was about to close MSN, she received a message to add friends. Her MSN is full of colleagues or classmates, without any strangers, and she has no habit of chatting with strangers, so she thought about it too. Click "Reject" if you don't want to.

"Mom." Doudou hugged the little bear, stood beside her with sleepy eyes, and pushed her arm. Unexpectedly, with this push, her mouse clicked to "agree". I care, because Doudou has just finished her afternoon nap, and she has to help the little girl change immediately, lest she catch a cold.

*
Wen Yunting sat above the long conference table, listening to the work reports of various branches.There is no expression on his handsome face, making it impossible to guess what he is thinking.
Luo Zhen was sitting in the corner of the conference table, but her gaze was always on Wen Yunting's body. When she occasionally met his cold gaze, she would raise her eyebrows and smile lightly, with her proud coquettishness and palpable admiration.When she got his indifferent gaze, she was elated.

After the meeting, Luo Zhen did not go back to the branch immediately, but chatted with Xie Yan in the office area of ​​the marketing department.Before, the relationship between Luo Zhen and Xie Yan was not good, but now they are both smirking and flattering each other.During the random chat, Luo Zhen kept thinking about how to create a chance encounter with Wen Yunting.

Suddenly, Luo Zhen's cell phone vibrated, it was a short message.Her fingers slid across the screen, her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise in an instant, she seemed a little disbelieving, but she blinked, and the caller number was indeed He Haotian's, that's right.She looked at the content carefully [Miss Luo, Mr. Wen invites you to dinner tonight, at seven o'clock, Prince Restaurant on Renmin East Road. 】
