I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 228 He Will

"Don't be angry. Although it's impossible to be unhappy, it's better not to be angry."

Looking at the angry look of Uesugi Maaya on the computer screen, Mingjing Nan adjusted his glasses without prescription, slightly moved his lips to put on an inconspicuous smile, and his voice was clear and soft, as if he was coaxing a child to sleep at night.

"Angry? Humph, I'm almost laughing because of this."

With a displeased "snort", Uesugi Maaya glanced at the scenery receding outside the Shinkansen window and rolled her eyes as if the Saito family leader was right in front of her.

"After all, it's the Saito family that wants to cooperate with Hayashi-kun, and the head of the family will contact him directly. You and Uesugi-kun should have thought of this a long time ago. Isn't it equivalent to tacit approval for you to let Makoto come to my side?"

After adjusting the volume of the Bluetooth headset, Ming Jingnan straightened his laptop, changed into a comfortable sitting position, and leaned back on the chair in the cafe.

It was still the same coffee shop where he had met Lin Zengxian before. After a day's work, Ming Jingnan, who had taken a break from his busy schedule, heard about the incident and took his laptop and left the dormitory.

"She just couldn't accept it emotionally. After all, the head of the family acted too quickly, as if he had no intention of believing her from the beginning."

Outside the computer screen, Uesugi Natsuhiko's lazy voice floated in.

Emotions cannot solve the problem. What Uesugi Natsuhiko needs to do is to comfort his wife and decide what to do next.

Therefore, when Ming Jingnan called him via video, he would ask his wife to answer the call immediately.

"In business, there is only one piece of cake. If some people eat more, others will eat less. If you can eat more by running faster, then there will definitely be people who want to run faster."

After rolling his eyes, Ming Jingnan poked his chin with his fingertips, but still failed to express what he really wanted to say.

Lin Zengxian once said, "Let business be business." She probably understood what Lin Zengxian meant, but when it came to her, she couldn't find the most accurate way to express it.

"Huh? You can say things like that now, did Lin-Jun teach you?"

Her expression changed like turning the pages of a book. Uesugi Maaya, who was angry just now, pretended to be calm. She used the calmest tone and pinched her husband's palm outside the screen.

"Yes, Lin Jun told me."

Unaware of Uesugi Maaya's little thoughts, Mingjing Nan still had the mentality of coaxing a child, trying to make himself look gentler as much as possible.

"You are now...Lin Jun has had a great influence on you."

Holding her chin with one hand and tapping her cheek with her fingertips, Uesugi Mayaya raised her eyebrows and showed a sly smile as if she was watching a fun event.

"Maaya!"

After a brief pause, Ming Jingnan leaned back from his chair, put his hand on the table, his eyes widened slightly, and his voice became higher.

Even though she frowned, it didn't look like she was angry.

"Okay, okay, how boring! You didn't even blush at all."

Waving her hands, Uesugi Maaya drooped her eyelids and sighed with boredom.

I mentioned Dr. Lin because I wanted to see you blush, not to hear you speak loudly.

"Maaya, do you want to call Makoto back?"

Ming Jingnan raised his hand to brush the hair by his ear, straightened his collar, stroked his cuffs, picked up the coffee and took a sip, took out a tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth, cleared his throat, and then leaned back in his chair again.

"No, without Makoto, there will be Mayuri, and there will be Yui. Compared to the two of them, Makoto is better."

Uesugi Maaya has never been a stupid person. She could have expected that the patriarch would be so quick to ask for help, but she still got angry when necessary.

"What do you need me to do?"

Minami Nai has no friendship with the Uesugi family or the Saito family. She is just a friend of Uesugi Maya.

As the batch of high-quality large ships arrived one after another, everyone with a discerning eye knew that Lin Zengxian had made a big success, so during this period of time, Lin Zengxian convened meetings almost every now and then to discuss the follow-up arrangements.

She was not worried about her family's interests. Lin Zengxian would not treat important allies unfairly, but if she could help Uesugi Maya, she would be willing to do so.

"No, I don't need to worry about the Saito family's affairs. Xia Yan has already arranged everything for our Uesugi family."

Originally, this was a conversation that Mingjing Nan initiated on a whim, and there was no planned topic to talk about. Uesugi Mayaya stopped the topic and planned to persuade Mingjing Nan to go back and rest.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Ming Jingnan on the screen had sat up straight, his lips slightly opened and closed, his eyes not meeting hers, with a hesitant look, Uesugi Mayaya gave up the idea of ​​ending the call.

Mingjing Nan seemed to have trouble making up her mind about what to say next, and the entire video call became silent. Faintly, Uesugi Maaya thought she heard her husband chuckle.

"Maaya, can I ask you something?"

After a minute of silence, Ming Jingnan squeezed her palms, and the lines of her shoulders fell as she took a deep breath. Her voice began to stabilize and she no longer hesitated.

"Okay, you can ask."

While looking at the screen, Mayaya Uesugi's mind was on her own hands.

Outside the screen, where Mingjing Nan could not see, her hand was held by Uesugi Natsuhiko, with her palm spread out, and Uesugi Natsuhiko was writing words on her palm.

"The Hanyu family... Will the Hanyu family be included in Lin Jun's plan?"

He couldn't explain why he thought of the Hanyu family, perhaps because of the nameplate, or perhaps for some other reason. This was something that he could get the exact answer from by asking Lin Zengxian. Ming Jingnan thought about it for a long time and decided to ask the Uesugi couple.

Now Lin Zengxian's plan has been implemented and the first phase has been very successful.

Based on what Lin Zengxian has shown so far and her understanding of this person, Ming Jingnan has no doubt that the second phase will be successful.

In other words, if Lin Zengxian wanted to save the barely holding on Hanyu family, he now has the ability to do so.

"Lin Jun..."

Uesugi Maaya dragged out the last syllable of the third word and did not continue speaking.

Because her husband had already written the words on her palm.

"He will."

After finishing what she was about to say, Uesugi Maaya nodded in an affirmative tone to the overly quiet Minami Naoi on the screen.

"Yes, I understand."

Mingjing Nan's voice was as light as a falling feather. Although her eyes were looking at the screen, it seemed as if she was looking at another person through the screen.

"South?"

Looking at the look in Mingjing Nan's eyes, Uesugi Mayaya frowned and felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

She originally wanted to say something informal, not to be so sure, but the words her husband wrote on her palm made her say bluntly that Lin Zengxian would definitely save the Hanyu family.

"I'm glad to know you're all right. I should go back to the dorm. I ran out secretly now, so my agent doesn't know."

With her eyelashes fluttering slightly, Mingjing Nan regained her focus and waved to Uesugi Maya on the screen.

"Okay, we'll talk later."

After ending the call, Uesugi Maaya tilted her head, leaned on Uesugi Natsuhiko's shoulder, pulled his hand over, and started playing with his fingers.

"Why would you make me say that?"

Uesugi Maaya intended to bring those two people together, and Uesugi Natsuhiko knew it a long time ago.

“No matter who it is, if they really want to be with Lin, they can’t avoid the name Hanyu. And you may not be able to bring them together, so you might as well tell the truth.”

Raising his other hand, Natsuhiko Uesugi gently scratched the tip of his wife's nose as if he was teasing a kitten.

"I know it may not be successful, and I have never thought about influencing other people's choices. I just want to provide a direction."

Uesugi Maaya reached out and put her hand around Uesugi Natsuhiko's chin as a "counterattack".

"That's not what I meant. We all know that your junior sister is just a marginal person with a high enough family bloodline for Mitsui, but this is only in the past. When Lin expands his business and the junior sister's strength increases, she will then drive Mingjing's influence in the family. Then she will no longer be an insignificant marginal person."

Grabbing his wife's "troublemaking" hand, Uesugi Natsuhiko kissed the back of her hand.

In Uesugi Natsuhiko's memory, every time Hanyu Airi "disturbs" Lin Zengxian in this way, Lin Zengxian did the same thing.

Sure enough, Uesugi Mayaya calmed down.

"Tell the school girl about it, so she can be mentally prepared."

Letting go of his wife's hand, Uesugi Natsuhiko looked at the computer screen that had fallen silent and narrowed his eyes slightly.
