Chapter 1399
Houhai, the first bar!
Tang Lin sat in a corner, holding a bottle of beer and drinking.
Opposite him sat a girl with a ponytail, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, very beautiful.
Wearing jeans and a sweater, she looked simple, but it couldn't hide the extraordinary temperament on her.
"Why, I'm back, aren't you happy?"
The girl leaned against the back of the chair, her long legs crossed, looking at Tang Lin with a smile.
Tang Lin gave a bitter smile: "You, Miss Nie, are back; how would I dare to be unhappy?"
"Don't look so mournful, I'm not borrowing money from you," Nie Wen picked up the wine glass in front of her: "Long time no see, come, let's toast."
Tang Lin toasted with Nie Wen reluctantly: "Are you not planning to go out again?"
"Not going out again."
Nie Wen drank some wine, then her upper body leaned forward slightly, the tight sweater highlighting the magnificence on her chest.
"In the years I was away, were there any little girls who moved your heart?"
"Yes!" Tang Lin said without hesitation: "It's already reached the point of talking about marriage."
Nie Wen sat up straight, her eyes narrowing, looking very dangerous.
"Is that so? Which family's girl, do I know her?"
Looking at Nie Wen's narrowed eyes, although there was a smile on her face, Tang Lin shivered and laughed dryly.
"I was joking."
"Oh!" Nie Wen sat up straight, the smile on her face very bright: "Do you have time tomorrow to accompany me to buy some clothes?"
"No..." Tang Lin was about to say no, but seeing Nie Wen's narrowed eyes again, he hurriedly changed his words: "Even if I don't have time, I have to squeeze out time to accompany you to buy clothes."
"That's more like it," Nie Wen was very satisfied with Tang Lin's attitude: "Go shopping during the day tomorrow, and visit Uncle and Aunt in the evening."
Tang Lin wanted to resist, but he didn't have the courage in front of Nie Wen, like a young daughter-in-law who had been gang-raped by a dozen big men, timidly holding the wine bottle and drinking sip after sip.
At this time, an uninvited guest appeared, the long-haired young man from the Eighth Bureau of the Ministry of State Security.
"Tang Lin, this bar you set up is not bad."
Tang Lin looked up, and when he saw the young man, he was happy, as if he had seen a savior.
"Oh, Old Dai, long time no see, sit down quickly, we must drink well today."
Dai Yunfeng looked at Nie Wen: "Am I interrupting?"
Nie Wen smiled slightly: "It's okay."
Dai Yunfeng sat down: "Aren't you going to introduce me to who this beauty is?"
Before Tang Lin could speak, Nie Wen reached out her hand first: "Nie Wen, Tang Lin's fiancée."
"Sister-in-law!" Dai Yunfeng shook hands with Nie Wen with a smile: "Hello, my name is Dai Yunfeng, I'm Tang Lin's buddy."
Hearing Nie Wen's introduction, Tang Lin asked Dai Yunfeng with a forced smile: "How did you find this place?"
"What do I do, don't you know?" Dai Yunfeng didn't stand on ceremony, picked up a bottle of wine, opened it, and raised it to drink.
Nie Wen stood up and said apologetically: "You guys chat, I'm going to the restroom."
Watching Nie Wen's retreating back, Dai Yunfeng raised his eyebrows at Tang Lin: "Where did this fiancée come from? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"Sigh!" Tang Lin drank some wine depressedly: "It's a long story."
Dai Yunfeng became interested: "Tell me."
"Then I'll make a long story short," Tang Lin looked helpless: "She is from the Nie family; my grandfather and her grandfather arranged a childhood marriage."
Dai Yunfeng asked curiously: "With such a beautiful and temperamental fiancée, why do I see you looking so miserable?"
Tang Lin opened his mouth, and finally waved his hand: "Don't talk about it, don't talk about it."
"It seems you have unspeakable secrets," Dai Yunfeng was even more curious: "If we have something to say, say it all; don't say half, you won't have friends if you act like this."
"Get lost!" Tang Lin rolled his eyes at him: "What's the matter, tell me."
Dai Yunfeng didn't waste time: "Tell that kid Zhang Zuo not to watch Tong Huaiyu anymore."
If someone else had come to tell him this, Tang Lin absolutely wouldn't have paid attention.
But Dai Yunfeng came specifically to tell him this, so there must be a purpose.
So he agreed very readily without asking why.
Even if Dai Yunfeng had said it, he wouldn't have listened.
Nie Wen returned, Dai Yunfeng stood up and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I have something to do, so I'll leave first; I won't disturb your lovey-dovey time."
"You're leaving just like that?" Tang Lin was very dissatisfied: "We haven't seen each other for almost half a year; you have to accompany me to drink a few bottles."
Dai Yunfeng wouldn't be fooled: "I won't be a lightbulb."
"Brother Dai!" Nie Wen said with a smile: "Wait for a day when you're not busy, I'll cook a few dishes at home. Then you and Tang Lin can come over to drink. If you drink too much, you can stay at home."
"Good!"
Dai Yunfeng had a very good impression of Nie Wen, but he was even more curious in his heart.
Such a good girl, and a childhood sweetheart, why is Tang Lin still so stubborn?
Dai Yunfeng left, Nie Wen checked the time, picked up her down jacket, and put it on: "Let's go, take me home."
Tang Lin stood up helplessly, thinking of the dark days ahead, and felt that living had no meaning at all.
"That, what's going on with the property management company you mentioned?"
Tang Lin didn't hide it: "It's jointly invested by me, Zhang Zuo, and Zhou Andong."
"Zhou Andong?" Nie Wen asked: "That Zhou Andong from the Yugong Group?"
"Yes!" Tang Lin took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it.
Nie Wen nodded: "I've learned about Zhou Andong; he is indeed a very powerful figure."
Tang Lin had a cigarette in his mouth and rubbed his cold hands: "You don't know yet, Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu are already married."
Nie Wen opened her mouth wide; she, who had always been calm, was shocked.
"Sister Qiu and Zhou Andong are married?"
Tang Lin laughed; he just wanted to see Nie Wen's shocked look: "Isn't it unbelievable?"
"To be able to tame Sister Qiu, Zhou Andong is even more powerful than I imagined," Nie Wen hugged Tang Lin's arm: "When you have time, take me to see Zhou Andong."
Tang Lin wanted to break free, but he didn't have the courage, so he could only let Nie Wen hug his arm.
"He will come to Beijing at the end of the year, and we can meet then."
The two chatted in the cold wind for a while, and Tang Lin got into the car after finishing a cigarette.
The night grew deeper, the gate of the detention center opened, and Tong Huaiyu walked out, immediately becoming confused.
He thought someone from home had come, but looking at the pitch-black night and the whistling north wind, there wasn't even a ghost's shadow.
What's going on? No one came from home, so why did the detention center release him in the middle of the night?
He wasn't wearing much, and the wind was strong tonight, making him shiver.
How is he supposed to walk? In the middle of the night, let alone buses, there weren't even taxis.
