Chapter 26 – Visiting Her Home Part 1

After the birthday banquet, Zu Jin and Yan Lin stayed for one more day.

It was rare for them to visit and Yan Lin wanted to spend more time with his grandfather.

They flew back to T City the next day and Zu Jin immediately went out again without having time to rest.

She resigned from Qiyu Corporation three years ago and then joined Xu Tianying’s friends in a joint venture to take over Xishui, a high-tech company on the verge of bankruptcy.

The company was going to be listed in the market after a series of restructuring and adjustments.

Zu Jin did not have a technical backbone. That’s why she was so busy when she became the CEO. However, she did not always work non-stop like before.

Since she didn’t go to work for two days in a row, there was naturally a backlog of official business waiting for her to work through.

While Zu Jin drove away to work, an unexpected guest came to her home.

Yan Lin was upstairs changing Zu Xiaofei when the doorbell rang.

The little girl would get her collar dirty when she ate fruits and snacks. Yan Lin had a penchant for cleanliness, so he had to change her clothes three or four times a day.

They heard the doorbell on the second floor after it rang for a while.

He held his daughter as he went downstairs. Through the metal gate, he saw a young woman standing in a white skirt.

“Hello, are you Mr. Yan? I am…”

Her voice stopped then her eyes widened in the next second.

She looked surprised and excited, she pointed at Yan Lin through the metal gate and smiled. “So it’s you!”

Yan Lin was dumbfounded for a moment, and finally saw what the woman looked like after opening the gate.

Zu Xiaofei reacted one step faster than him because she had played with this woman on the way on the high-speed train the other day.

They had a lot of fun playing together.

“Little girl, we meet again!” The woman happily waved at Xiao Fei.

After a simple greeting, Yan Lin invited her to come in.

They sat in the living room and she explained, “I was on vacation yesterday and took the high-speed train back to my hometown to visit my parents. I never thought we would meet here again today. It’s like fate!”

Yan Lin poured her a glass of juice. Then, he picked up the papers she had put on the coffee table and flipped through a few pages before he put it back.

“Zu Jin just left. I’ll give her the papers when she comes back in the evening.”

Bai Qing lowered her eyes and smiled. Her face suddenly showed a touch of shyness.

“I’m so embarrassed about yesterday. I didn’t know that Zu Jin is Feifei’s mother. I only realized it after I got off the high-speed train. I should have apologized to President Jin for that, and now I know that she is Zu Jin, I am truly…”

Yan Lin sat on the accent chair next to her. He watched Zu Xiaofei and softly said, “It’s all right, she won’t take it to heart.”

Did Zu Jin really not take it to heart?

In reality, Zu Jin gave him the silent treatment after they got off the high-speed train and got in the car yesterday.

At that time, Yan Lin had to console his wife with a few words.

However, these were private matters between a husband and a wife. He naturally could not tell Bai Qing any of this.

Bai Qing’s eyes looked around. The ends of her eyes were slightly upturned. It gave her appearance a touch of distress that could easily stir up a man’s impulsive desire to protect her.

After a few more words, she got up to show that she was going to leave.

But before Bai Qing left, she smiled and asked, “Brother Yan, may I have your business card?”

Yan Lin replied, “I don’t have it on me. You can have my cell phone number.”

Thus, Yan Lin told her his cell phone number, and after Bai Qing happily saved it and left.

When Zu Jin came back in the evening, it was almost eleven o’clock. She smelled strongly of alcohol.

She hid that she drank from him again.

Yan Lin frowned as soon as he smelled it, but it was so common that he was more or less accustomed to being unhappy about it.

He put his arm around her waist and opened the door to help her in.

But as soon as he closed the door, Zu Jin turned and put her arms around his neck and pressed him against the door.

Zu Jin pinched his ear and gave a faint, low laugh, “Just now when I was having dinner, two women said…that women with successful careers will hate marriage because their husbands are useless and they are dead in that matter! Hahaha!”

Yan Lin did not move and allowed her to lean against his body shamelessly.

When she had finished laughing, he quietly asked, “And what did you say?”

Zu Jin whimpered and bit him viciously on the lips.

“I won’t say, baby. I want to hide you. What if someone finds out and takes you away?”

Yan Lin was very happy to hear this, but Zu Jin didn’t tell him that she was going to drink. She came back in the middle of the night and was still a little drunk. He felt that he couldn’t let it go that easily.

So although he had a smile in his eyes, his face was still serious.

However, his husky and magnetic voice began to more or less expose his current feelings.

Zu Jin felt that his arm wrapped around her waist seemed to tighten a little bit.

It made her a little out of breath.

“Hey, you’re laughing!”

She exposed his inner thoughts.

Yan Lin could no longer hold himself back, so he simply expressed it with his actions.

Thus, Zu Jin was picked up by him and carried upstairs for training…
