Chapter Thirty-Four: The Man Who Brings the Wind
"Hmm..." Li Mingcheng was taken aback, he had indeed saved up some money, but at most it would only be enough to buy a house of around 100-200 square meters, which for him, was still a bit difficult.
However, he didn't become disheartened from the blow. He immediately turned around with a smile and said to Liu Yanzi: "Yanzi, didn't you say you wanted to treat me to a big meal? The sky is getting dark, shouldn't we be leaving?"
"It wasn't me." Liu Yanzi raised an eyebrow, this woman was like a fully armed porcupine, having just finished with Li Mingcheng, she immediately turned to Lin Zixian and pointed at him, saying: "It was he who wanted to invite all of us from Sakura Snow Apartment to go to Ivory Coast for a big meal."
"You? Are you inviting us to the Ivory Coast?" Li Mingcheng looked at Lin Zixian with some astonishment, re-examining him several times, and asked uncertainly: "The Ivory Coast is a top hotel in Donghai, the consumption is not low, are you sure you want to invite us to the Ivory Coast?"
Lin Zile was taken aback for a moment, and finally found the root of everyone's strange gaze at him. He scratched his head and said: "I have a friend who works there, so I can get a discount and it won't cost much money. Last time I even got to enjoy it for free."
Several women suddenly realized, it turned out to be like this, emotions are not about pretending to be strong.
Liu Yanzhi suddenly shouted: "Wow! That's where the rich people come and go, maybe I can catch a golden turtle son. Ivory Coast, I'm coming, everyone hurry up and change into beautiful clothes!" She ran upstairs in a flash.
Lin Zi was stunned on the spot, this woman is really something, not hiding her desires at all, and can't help but think of a phrase... Lin Zi is big, what bird doesn't exist.
Others seem to have gotten used to Liu Yanzi's craziness, several women smiled and didn't say a word, only Li Mingcheng was smiling bitterly.
"Zhang BeiBei, didn't you say that there was a male roommate in the Sakura Snow apartment?" Lin Zixian asked after looking around.
Zhang Bei pointed at Qin Yue and said: "Xia Qiu is Yueyue's boyfriend."
Lin Zi heard that Yu Yanzi was in a bad mood, and Liu Yanzhi's situation was very obvious. Li Mingcheng was clearly pursuing her, and Qin Yue actually had a boyfriend now. He paused for a moment before saying: "Qin Yue, invite your boyfriend to come along too! I've already invited everyone from Sakura Apartments, it wouldn't be good to leave out just your boyfriend."
Qin Yue shook her head and said: "He's still busy with work, he might not even come back tonight, maybe next time! We'll invite you."
Lin Zile's eyes paused for a moment as he looked at Qin Yue, his gaze slightly condensed. He had been in contact with many wealthy and noble young masters, and Qin Yue's demeanor and style subtly revealed a hint of the grandeur and elegance of a wealthy family's child, not like an ordinary person's child. However, living together with her boyfriend here didn't seem like something a wealthy family's daughter would do either.
Suddenly remembering something, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Didn't they say that the two male roommates live downstairs and the female roommates all live upstairs? Qin Yue, you and your boyfriend..."
Qin Yue knew what he wanted to ask and didn't hide it, smiling straightforwardly: "My boyfriend and I have an agreement, we don't live together before marriage, so we don't share a room."
"Cough cough! I really admire your two... " Lin Zixian chuckled twice, but didn't say the word 'willpower' that followed.
Liu Yanzi, who had dressed up upstairs, came down again. At this time, she seemed to have changed into another person, with a dignified temperament and a purple low-cut backless evening dress that showed off her good figure. Li Mingcheng immediately praised her with shining eyes: "Yanzi, you're really beautiful!"
"It goes without saying, otherwise what's the point of hooking a golden son-in-law." Liu Yanzi walked down the stairs, glanced at several women and exclaimed: "Why aren't you changing clothes?"
Several people said something like not wanting to be too troublesome, Liu Yanzi smiled and said: "Then I'll be embarrassed, don't blame me for stealing your thunder later. Li Mingcheng, what are you spacing out? Haven't seen a beauty before? Always showing it to you is not enough, hurry up and go get on the bus!
Li Mingcheng responded with a "yes" and obediently ran out like Liu Yanzhi's servant.
The car parked outside the courtyard was a Toyota Nissan, and several people came to the front of the car only to find that it was a bit crowded. In the passenger seat, Tong Yunan was accompanied by her daughter, while three beauties were squeezed in the back. Lin Zixian stood alone at the door, he didn't mind squeezing with the beauties, but the key point was that others might not be willing.
"Hey... Lin Zile, why don't you just hail another cab?" Li Mingcheng said with a smile from inside the car, his tone much softer now that he was about to get a free ride.
"Go! You guys go first, I'll catch another ride." Lin Zixian waved his hand and said.
Although a group of people were reluctant, they still left him alone, Li Mingcheng handed him a business card for easy contact later.
Standing at the gate, Lin Zi took out his broken mobile phone and turned it on after a few days. As soon as it was turned on, the notification sound rang for a while. Looking at it, there were a large number of unconnected calls, almost all from Qiao An Tian and Ning Lan.
These were filtered out by him directly. He remembered that the last time Meng Zidan had taken his mobile phone and dialed a phone number, saying that she could contact her if something happened.
As soon as Meng Zidan's phone was connected, her voice came from the receiver: "Hello! Who is it?"
"General Meng, long time no see, I'm Lin Zixian! The one who was with Ning Lan last time, do you remember?" Lin Zixian smiled and said.
"Is that you?" After a scream, Meng Zidan immediately went crazy like taking the wrong medicine, scolding loudly: "You good Lin Zi Xian, ate and ran away with a wipe of your mouth, what do you think Lanan is? Want to sleep, want to dump? You dare to call me, son of a bitch, I won't forgive you..."
The voice was so loud that it hurt Lin Zile's eardrum, and he held the phone to one side with a grin, waiting for the thunderstorm on the other end of the line to subside before picking up again: "Director Meng, why are you yelling so loudly? Can't we just talk things through nicely?"
"Damn it! No need to talk nicely to a beast like you, Lanlan has been driven by you as if she's lost her soul. You think being a mistress is so fun, Lin something, where are you now? Honestly confess, otherwise even if you hide at the ends of the earth, I'll dig you out and tear you into eight pieces."
"Let's talk about the big things later, General Meng, I have something to ask for your help."
"How dare you ask for my help?" Meng Zidan laughed coldly, as if he had heard something unbelievable: "Lin, where are you now? Don't dodge and weave, report your address."
"Hey! Who's hiding? I was just about to look for you!"
"Who are you messing with? Say another sentence and try it! Uh... Are you coming to find me?" Meng Zidan paused for a moment, saying: "What's the matter? If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have fart, let it out quickly!"
"What's with the beautiful woman speaking so rudely...... It's like this, I brought a few friends to Ivory Coast for dinner, but I'm afraid it's late and there won't be any seats, can you please help me arrange something, Mr. Meng?"
"Is it a boyfriend or girlfriend?"
"Both men and women."
"Alright! I'll arrange it for you, you'd better hurry up and come quickly. If you dare to stand me up, see how I'll deal with you." The other end hung up the phone.
Lin Zixian shivered as he held the phone, listening to the other person's tone, which was similar to Zhang Wangyi's. It seemed that she really thought something had happened that night and the misunderstanding was quite deep. It seemed that this time, it was necessary to explain things clearly, otherwise, not only would he not get what he wanted, but he would also be misunderstood as a heartless and unscrupulous lecher, which was too unjust.
He turned around and pushed out the tricycle from the yard, closed the gate, and rode away quickly.
It's not that he's pretending to be a big shot, nor is it because he wants to save the two taxi fares. After strolling around Donghai for a while, he knows that this time slot is actually the peak period for traffic jams. What's important is that the old city area doesn't seem too far from Ivory Coast either, and if you ride quickly, it'll take at most half an hour.
Racing on his bicycle through the streets, he soon rushed to the junction of the new and old city districts. The road was indeed congested with a long dragon of cars. Lin Zi secretly smiled at his own cleverness, looking down on the group stuck in traffic, and sped away coolly.
Liu Yanzhi, who was stuck in the car, was grumbling, when Tong Feifei, sitting on her mother's lap, suddenly pointed at a figure riding a bicycle swiftly passing by outside the window and exclaimed: "Mom, look! It's Uncle Lin."
Several people turned their heads to look, and indeed saw Lin Zixian riding a bicycle away in the distance. Li Mingchen's eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed: "No way! He can't be thinking of riding a bike all the way to Ivory Coast, can he?!"
Liu Yanzhi looked at her own evening dress, and then thought of the scene where she bumped into Lin Zixuan while riding a bicycle in C?te d'Ivoire. She couldn't help but cry out in dismay: "Heavens! Looking at the direction we're heading, it's not impossible that... Riding this outdated bike to C?te d'Ivoire, you can be shameless, but you should also think about us! I don't want to lose face on my first time showing off at a six-star hotel!"
Zhang Bei and Qin Yue exchanged a glance, both of them couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Yanzi, don't worry, when we meet him, if he's really holding onto his bicycle, we'll just avoid him and pretend not to know him," Li Mingcheng comforted.
Riding on a bicycle, Lin Zixian was carefree and didn't have many thoughts. He didn't think riding a bike was embarrassing at all, but rather felt that the wind blowing along the way was extremely refreshing. Suddenly, the phone in his pocket rang 'ding ding', he took it out and connected it, and immediately heard Meng Zidan's voice: "Lin Zixian, where are you? Are you fooling me?"
Lin Zi glanced at the white building standing in the distance and replied, "Soon, soon, we'll be there in no more than five minutes."
"Alright! I'll wait for you."
Meng Zidan hung up the phone and immediately walked out of the hotel lobby, huffing and puffing as she headed towards the road outside, planning to give Lin Zixuan a good scolding before meeting him.
However, as soon as she walked to the entrance of the road outside, she saw Lin Zile coming towards her on an old-fashioned bicycle, and was immediately stunned!
Lin Zi suddenly slammed on the brakes, jumped off elegantly, and handed the bicycle to her with one hand, smiling: "Help me get down, my friends should have arrived first, I'll call them to ask where they are."
Meng Zidan leaned against his bicycle, speechless for a moment, and the prepared scolding words couldn't be spoken out. He looked at him like a monster, watching him make a phone call...
