Chapter 228 Why Don’t We Get Married?
Chapter 228 Why Don’t We Get Married?
The bright sunlight poured down from the windowsill onto the ground, making the entire bedroom warm. Nangong Jin opened his somewhat sore eyes and stared out the window in a daze.
Everything that happened last night came flooding back to her mind. She raised her left hand and saw that she had hit him. He must be in pain. She didn’t know if he would get sick after being caught in the rain…
Nangong Jin felt that there must be something wrong with her brain. After a good night's sleep, her wounds healed and she forgot the pain. She was shocked to realize how reluctant she was to let him go.
She struggled to get up from the bed, fumbled around and took out the ring from the safe. The ring was crystal clear and fluorescent, and it was breathtakingly beautiful.
But when she was not paying attention, the ring suddenly slipped from Nangong Jin's finger and fell to the ground. She was so scared that she quickly squatted down to pick it up.
"Will it be broken? This is his mother's relic, it absolutely cannot be..." She carefully examined every corner of the ring, and finally found a crack in the ring holder.
"Did it really break?"
She carefully clicked it with her hand, and the turquoise ring on it rolled into her palm.
Nangong Jin looked at the ring setting and gently scratched it, then it opened, revealing a small chip.
Its appearance made Nangong Jin's heart skip a beat. She knew that this thing was the real reason for He Zichen's mother's death, not a simple fight for the family property.
For various reasons, she kept the chip and re-embedded the ring. She couldn't let He Zichen follow in his mother's footsteps. She had said she wanted him to live to be a hundred years old.
She took out her cell phone and dialed the number, "King, I need to talk to you about something."
She doesn't trust anyone else and doesn't want to drag them down. Only King is the most suitable person because he has been dealing with both the black and white worlds for many years.
Nangong Jin simply washed up, changed into his commuting clothes, and went downstairs carrying his briefcase.
"Miss, are you awake? You were caught in the rain last night. Are you feeling unwell?"
Seventeen kept asking her questions, fearing that she would have a headache or a fever, and looked anxious.
"Stop, Seventeen, why are you always so weird lately? I'm fine, don't worry about me." She took out the ring from her pocket, "Here, give it to him later."
Seventeen took the ring and stared at Nangong Jin carefully for a while, "Well, Miss, do you have anything you want me to tell you?"
Nangong Jin's expression froze for a few seconds, and then he smiled as if relieved: "Let him take good care of himself!"
"I'm going to work, Seventeen, bye."
After Nangong Jin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out quickly. As expected, he still couldn't discuss matters related to him calmly.
She drove to the company and as soon as she entered the building, she saw her colleagues looking at her strangely. She quickly lowered her head to check her clothes. Hmm? There was nothing wrong with it. Why did everyone look weird?
As the elevator door opened with a "ding", the whole floor was filled with fragrance. She immediately had a bad feeling. Sure enough, when she walked to her office, she thought she had come to a flower shop. The whole office was filled with flowers and there was no place to stand.
At this time, the assistant came over holding the documents, "Lawyer Nangong, this was delivered by the florist this morning, and there is also a bouquet that I was asked to pass on to you."
Nangong Jin took the bouquet of Damascus roses and picked up the card inside. She raised her eyebrows slightly. This time, it was signed: Come have dinner with me tonight! - Qi Qin
Suddenly someone patted her shoulder from behind, which frightened her so much that she shivered and turned to look at the person with displeasure.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn’t realize you’re quite charming, Nangong Jin.”
Nangong Jin looked at Lin Mo's playful look, snorted coldly and ignored him, and just ordered the assistant: "Xiao Jing, distribute the flowers inside to each colleague, I have to work, hurry up."
"I know, I'll do it right away."
"You don't like flowers?"
Lin Mo saw that she was so calm, she didn't even have the joy that a normal girl would have when receiving flowers.
"Compared to these, I like money more. I should say I like making money, so don't do these boring things. As I said, care more about those who really need care."
Lin Mo found her very interesting. His eyes caught sight of the card in the bouquet. "Are you going on a date tonight?"
"This is my privacy. I don't need to explain it to you. Vice President Lin."
Lin Mo was not angry at Nangong Jin's inhumanity. He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Come and have lunch with me at noon today!"
"No, I'm very busy recently. I don't have time to go out for dinner. I..."
Lin Mo stretched out his fingers to cover her mouth, and frightened Nangong Jin so much that she stepped back repeatedly, "Be careful of me..."
"Want to sue me for sexual harassment again? Nangong Jin, the law is of course a good weapon, but you forgot that it doesn't have much effect on rich people!"
Nangong Jin was choked by his words. Although he didn't want to agree with him, what he said was a fact that he had to acknowledge.
"Have lunch with me, and I'll tell you the news you want to know. I won't disturb you from your work, I'll wait for you."
Seeing him look like he was sure of himself, Nangong Jin really wanted to beat him up, but in the end he could only keep telling himself that hitting someone was against the law, so he shouldn't be impulsive...
As soon as lunch time came, Lin Mo appeared at the door of her office on time as expected.
"Knock knock knock, Lawyer Nangong Jin, here I come, let's go and have dinner!"
Nangong Jin reluctantly raised his head from the pile of documents and looked at the ruffian-like man. Nangong Jin felt that the other person had changed recently. He became less cold, but terribly clingy.
"I know, I'll come right away."
The two walked out of the company side by side, followed Lin Mo all the way, and finally came to a private restaurant.
"We're here. The food here is pretty good. You should like it."
Without saying a word, he grabbed Nangong Jin's hand and went upstairs. His strength was so great that Nangong Jin couldn't get rid of him at all.
"Lin Mo, I told you not to make a move. Even rabbits bite when they are angry."
"Then bite it, I don't care, let it go, it's impossible!"
The other party's shameless and unyielding attitude really gave Nangong Jin a headache. As long as the chip was useful, she could ignore this stinky man.
The private restaurant is a renovated residential house. Although it is not big, it exudes warmth everywhere.
The boss is also very enthusiastic. He will take photos for every customer who comes here.
After a while, all kinds of home-cooked dishes were served. The originally small space was instantly filled with the aroma of food, which made Nangong Jin feel the taste of home.
"Eat quickly!"
Nangong Jin's biggest hobbies are food and making money, so of course she won't be polite to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo found that Nangong Jin was really cute every time she ate. She ate from the bowl while looking at the pot, and her mouth was always full. She didn't look like a lady at all.
But he just liked it, so Lin Mo thought Nangong Jin was amazing, and he ate him to death for no apparent reason.
"Eat slowly! I'm not trying to steal it from you."
He reached out and gently wiped the juice from the corner of her mouth with his fingertips. Nangong Jin frowned and dodged back, glaring at him.
"Nangong Jin, I have a suggestion, would you like to consider it?"
"Ok?"
"Why don't we get married? I'll give you whatever you want!"
