Chapter 49

"That's right, and the newspaper said that Zuo Lingfeng will contribute 70% of this cooperation!"

"Huh? Isn't it obvious that he wants to take advantage of the Jin family? What is he trying to do?"

"What's the picture? Bojia people just smile!" Someone pointed, with a slightly sour tone.

"Shhh... keep your voice down..."

Ye Xingchen suddenly lost his appetite. Some time ago, Zuo Lingfeng came to her every day, and there were already rumors in the hospital, and now it is even more unclear.But it's fine if it's a misunderstanding, but is it really a misunderstanding?

No, it can't be such a coincidence.

Thinking of Lou Xi's sudden hanging up of the phone last night, she felt even more anxious. Could it be... Was Zuo Lingfeng really helping her?
Taking out her mobile phone, she had the urge to call Zuo Lingfeng, but she was a little hesitant. Would this be too presumptuous?But if she didn't fight, she wouldn't be able to find out the truth.

Although she didn't want to continue to have anything to do with Zuo Lingfeng, she had to figure out Ms. Jin's matter, and she couldn't accept such a great favor without knowing it.

After struggling for a while, she still gritted her teeth and dialed the number. The call was quickly picked up. She took a deep breath and said, "Is this Mr. Zuo? I'm Ye Xingchen."

"I know it's you." He wasn't surprised.

Ye Xingchen bit his lip slightly, and said hesitantly, "Mr. Zuo, do you have time tonight? I have something to talk to you about."

"Okay." Without any hesitation, he said again, "I'll pick you up after get off work."

"No need, Mr. Zuo!" She interrupted him hastily, thought for a while, and said, "Shall we go to the BJ's restaurant last time? See you at six o'clock."

He hesitated for a while, as if regretting, "Alright."

During off-duty hours, Zuo Lingfeng didn't keep the agreement, so he came to the hospital to pick her up, and the Lamborghini was parked downstairs, which was very cool.

Ye Xingchen was slightly annoyed, but in order to avoid attracting crowds, he had no choice but to get in the car quickly.

And just as she sat down, she looked up and saw a small but delicate little bear hanging in front of the car window.

Her gaze paused slightly, and Zuo Lingfeng also noticed it, but said indifferently, "I bought it because I thought it was cute. By the way, did you still like that little bear last time?"

Ye Xingchen's heart skipped a beat, that little bear was thrown into the trunk by Lou Xi, and then nothing happened.

She nodded awkwardly, but said nothing.

Zuo Lingfeng didn't ask any more questions, and started the engine, and the car drove out quickly.

Gradually drifting away, the car moved forward steadily, the little bear pendant dangled back and forth, Ye Xingchen's heart became more and more uneasy, Zuo Lingfeng knew that she liked to eat BJ dishes, knew that she liked little bears, and knew that she was caught in a medical dispute , why does he know her so well?Did he investigate her specifically?And even spend a lot of money to help her resolve the medical dispute?
She was restless, this feeling of being seen through and owed a huge debt of favor made her extremely uneasy.

Finally arrived at the restaurant, despite her obstruction, Zuo Lingfeng ordered many dishes, all of which she liked.

During the meal, the two of them didn't speak much. It was near the end that he asked, "Have you been in the hospital these days?"

Ye Xingchen nodded, "Yes, but it's very leisurely."

Zuo Lingfeng naturally understood her feelings, and said comfortingly, "It's only temporary, and you can resume your job after the pathological autopsy report comes out."

Ye Xingchen was slightly startled, sure enough, he knew everything!

"Mr. Zuo, can I ask you a question?" She decided to show her cards.

"of course can."

"I read in the newspaper that you will cooperate with Jin's. I don't know much about business matters, but I also vaguely know that Lingfeng Group does not take advantage of this cooperation. Why do you do this?"

Zuo Lingfeng didn't expect her to be so straightforward. It seems that she endured it all night and finally didn't want to bear it anymore.

He stared at her with a little more seriousness, and said, "If I say, I'm for you, will you be very angry?"

Ye Xingchen squeezed the hand holding the chopsticks, "I'm not angry, but I don't understand."

Now that things have happened, she can no longer pretend to be stupid. Zuo Lingfeng's "goodness" to her can't be explained clearly in a few words, but what exactly does he mean?Although she has never been in a relationship, she has watched a lot. Whether it is a classmate, a colleague, or a friend, there is no man around her who "chases" girls like this!Even Lou Xi once directly said that he wanted to look around with her, but Zuo Lingfeng never said a single outrageous word, but he controlled everything about her all the time, including her preferences and even her difficulties!

"Mr. Zuo, excuse me, I don't want to be sentimental, but can you be more direct, what exactly do you mean?"

"Does this bother you?"

"Yes." She said bluntly.

Zuo Lingfeng suddenly fell silent. It seemed that her tolerance and patience had been exhausted. If he said that he liked her or something at this moment, she would probably turn around and leave. Maybe it would be difficult to even meet her in the future.

He nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't mean anything, I just want to be nice to you."

"But your kindness makes me very stressed."

"You don't need to be stressed, I don't need anything in return from you."

A feeling of helplessness and even powerlessness came over. Ye Xingchen never knew that it would be so difficult to communicate with others. They were not relatives, so why should he be nice to her?How could she accept his offer with peace of mind?From the gossip of her colleagues, she had heard that Zuo Lingfeng was very generous to his ex-girlfriends, but she was neither an actress nor a supermodel. What did he like about her?

She put down her chopsticks, feeling powerless as if she had collapsed, and asked, "What's good about me?"

"It's because you are not good enough that I want to be nice to you."

His answer almost came out without thinking, as if it was instinct, Ye Xingchen's heart was beating wildly in shock, she hurriedly went to get the wine bottle, trying to pour herself a glass to calm her palpitations, but he suddenly reached out his hand, his hand touched When it hit her, it was like an electric shock, she flashed quickly, and the wine bottle fell down with a "bang", without breaking, but the wine spilled out, splashing him all over.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" She hurriedly got up.

"nothing……"

Outside the door, the waiter rushed in immediately after hearing the voice, "Mr. Zuo, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Zuo Lingfeng took off his coat, put it on the back of the chair, and then walked to the door, "I'm going to the bathroom."

The waiter hurriedly led the way.

Ye Xingchen froze in place, nervous and annoyed, watching them leave, but his gaze suddenly froze.

A figure suddenly stopped at the door of the box, the light in the corridor was dim, but it couldn't hide the sharpness of Lou Xi's sharp eyes, there was another person beside him, who looked like his friend, he glanced at her, then turned his head to face his After the friend said something, the man immediately entered the box opposite.

Lou Xi turned to her again, her gaze was fixed, Ye Xingchen's body shook, seeing him striding towards her, there was a "click", the sound of the box door being locked.

"Dating him again?" He moved closer to her.

"No!" Ye Xingchen denied embarrassingly, "It's not a date, but there are some things that need to be clarified."

Lou Xi looked at her who was tense, then glanced over the messy dining table, and finally landed on Zuo Lingfeng's coat draped on the back of the chair, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised, but he didn't know whether it was sarcasm or something, "Speaking excitedly yes?"

A man and a woman, a closed box, coats taken off, a table full of chaos, who wouldn't think about it?
