Chapter 935: Chapter 962 Zhang Xixi Invites to the Nightclub
All morning long, Lin Zifeng’s mood was almost at rock bottom, his heart filled with an intense struggle, truly unsure of his future path.
After enduring immense hardship to trace his parents, the resulting findings were utterly disheartening.
He sat in the tea room for a long time.
It was lunchtime.
From afar, Zhang Xixi had already noticed where Lin Zifeng had been sitting for a long time. Earlier, when she arrived, she saw Lin Zifeng was discussing something with Jia Zhenjing from the security department. Out of courtesy, Zhang Xixi refrained from interrupting them.
However, Jia Zhenjing’s sudden resignation set off a buzz throughout the company. An old security guard who had been at Tianyu for over a decade just up and left, naturally stirring significant discussion.
No one knew why the old security guard just left like that.
Zhang Xixi thought about it, recalling seeing Jia Zhenjing and Lin Zifeng having a face-to-face conversation in the tea room just now. Lin Zifeng was still sitting there motionless after such a long time.
It was hard for Zhang Xixi not to feel a bit puzzled, but more so, she was concerned for Lin Zifeng.
From afar, she noticed that Lin Zifeng seemed to be in a poor mood.
"Lin, what’s wrong?"
Zhang Xixi ordered a cup of tea and slowly walked up behind Lin Zifeng.
"Nothing, nothing. Why are you here?"
In the midst of his emotional turmoil, Lin Zifeng glanced at her in surprise.
"Lin, I saw you chatting with Brother Jia this morning, and it’s been such a long time. Why are you still sitting here alone?"
Zhang Xixi pursed her lips. She was a bit worried.
Her pretty face gradually showed a hint of heartache.
"Oh, it’s nothing, just thinking about some complicated issues." Lin Zifeng shrugged, trying to dispel the sad feelings in his heart. He smiled, but it was a chilly smile.
Zhang Xixi, though generally not talkative, had a sharp eye. She could see certain things even if she didn’t say them out loud.
"Lin, can I sit down and talk?"
"Of course, why not? You’re not an outsider." Lin Zifeng gave a bitter smile; this girl was just too polite.
Today, Zhang Xixi was dressed in a relatively modest and classical style. Her long, sleek hair hung straight down over her striking and exaggerated chest, her fair skin lightly adorned with makeup, and her unparalleled pretty face looked almost rosy white, appearing extremely beautiful.
Her tall figure shimmered with a smooth luster full of texture.
But Lin Zifeng was in no mood to appreciate the beauty in front of him. He liked to bear his sorrows alone, unwilling to express them; that was just the kind of person he was.
"Lin, I noticed you’ve been coming to the company less often lately, and during this time, your expression doesn’t look good. Have you encountered something? If you really feel uncomfortable, you may as well tell Xixi. Although Xixi isn’t capable of much, Xixi can share some of your burden. Don’t bear everything alone; it’ll only worry those who care about you."
Zhang Xixi was an extremely sensitive woman, recognizing Lin Zifeng’s sorrows at a glance, because she often had such feelings.
Her words were like sharp needles deeply piercing the softest part of Lin Zifeng’s inner world. In the moments of utmost pain and despair, having such a woman appear to comfort you was indeed the best remedy in the world.
Lin Zifeng shook his head, appearing as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile, "Xixi, do I look like someone with troubles?"
"Yes! Absolutely!"
Zhang Xixi decisively answered, "I’ve been watching you all morning, Lin. Although you seem like nothing’s wrong on the outside, you’re definitely suppressing some burdens in your thoughts. Not talking doesn’t mean I can’t see it."
"Xixi, since when did you develop such a knack for divination? Everyone says pretty women have a sixth sense; you aren’t really trusting your sixth sense to judge your Lin’s mood, are you?"
Lin Zifeng shook his head helplessly.
Funny enough, women’s sixth sense tends to be quite accurate.
"No, Lin, if you do have something on your mind, I know you pretend nothing’s wrong, but when I saw you from afar, your emotions clearly fluctuated a lot. If there’s anything you can absolutely talk to me about. Xixi can help ease your worries. Also, Brother Jia’s resigned."
"Brother Jia resigned?"
Lin Zifeng’s face twitched, his heart startled; they had just been chatting. How could he resign just like that?
"When?"
"He applied for resignation with the HR department right after returning from the tea room this morning."
"Where is he now?"
"He’s already left the company."
Zhang Xixi actually did not quite understand why Jia Zhenjing left the company and so urgently, without even saying goodbye to so many acquaintances in the company.
Lin Zifeng tried his best to calm his emotions; after a while, he felt at ease.
If he’s gone, then let it be. His identity has already been exposed, and staying in the company doesn’t seem to offer any hidden secrets.
After all, Lin Zifeng had already seen through his identity, remaining would only add awkwardness.
"Lin, if—if I say if."
At this moment, Zhang Xixi seemed to have thought of something but was hesitant to speak up.
"What if?"
Lin Zifeng grinned.
"If you really feel upset, how about I accompany you to a nightclub tonight to have some drinks and ease your troubles? What do you think, Lin?"
Having grown up in the countryside, she became very cautious dealing with people and matters once stepping into society. However, the word ’nightclub’ for today’s white-collar workers was a place to remove worries. Yet, Zhang Xixi had never been to such places, and inviting Lin Zifeng this time took a lot of courage.
She knew Lin Zifeng was a person of open mind, and judging by his demeanor, he must be familiar with places like those. Now, she felt the only way to help Lin Zifeng relieve his worries was to accompany him there.
"Do you often go to places like that?"
Lin Zifeng suddenly looked up at her, causing her flawless pretty face to blush immediately.
Her cute chin was almost resting on her ample bust.
Mumbling, she said, "I-I usually don’t-don’t go much."
"Then why pull your Lin to go? Aren’t you worried that he might mislead you?" Lin Zifeng teased with a laugh.
"No-not worried! Lin, you’re a good person."
Zhang Xixi said resolutely.
Wow! I’m a good person?
Lin Zifeng suddenly felt a twinge of pain in his heart because several times when he met Zhang Xixi, he harbored those wicked thoughts about her, yet his image in her mind bordered on that of a good person?
