At the end of the corridor outside the study door, a window opened.

Xia Liang stood by the window, looking at the dark night outside the window, smoking a cigarette in silence.

Zhou Shuo stood a few steps behind him, looking at his back worriedly.

Although he didn't know what Song Yan told him, he would be so angry that he even found out the baseball bat from his school days, but he knew that Xia Liang must be very conflicted now.

In the past, every time he encountered a thorny problem in business, Xia Liang would stand in front of the window and smoke silently until he came up with a solution.

But Xia Lin is his younger brother, not the kind of customer who can be won by negotiation in the business field, so Xia Liang felt an unprecedented annoyance at this moment. After a while, Xia Lin opened the door of the study and came behind Xia Liang. , called out in a low voice, "Brother."

Xia Liang looked back at him: "How are you thinking?"

"Don't let Song Yan kneel. He is the eldest young master of the Song family. Let him kneel in our house for one night. If it spreads out, it will attract criticism." Xia Lin paused, "I will talk to Song Yan. It's over, let him go back to City D early tomorrow morning."

Xia Liang raised one eyebrow, obviously dissatisfied with such an answer: "That's it?"

"That's it." Xia Lin said, "I won't be with him, and I don't need him to be responsible or make up for me, I don't care."

He paused and continued: "But now the Xia family is in a critical period of industrial transformation. Although I don't know much about the family's business, it can be seen from Dad's words that he values ​​the strategy with the Song family this time. Cooperation, I do not want the personal grievance between me and Song Yan to affect the cooperation vision between the two families."

Xia Liang looked at him for a long time, and then patted him on the shoulder with a heavy heart: "Xiao Lin, you have grown up, and you know how to think about the future of the whole family. This was originally a good thing, but seeing you being so compromising, I will I feel very uncomfortable.”

"Brother, I didn't compromise," Xia Lin smiled, "I remember you told me when I was a child that whether a person is lucky or unfortunate mainly depends on whether his heart is strong or not. The same setbacks, for people with fragile hearts , may be a mountain that can crush him, but for a person with a strong heart, it is just a hurdle that can be crossed by raising a leg. I prefer to regard it as a hurdle, as long as I don't care about it, I don't care. You will feel aggrieved.”

Xia Liang nodded reassuringly: "You really grew up, you can think like this, I'm relieved. The matter between you and Song Yan... If you think this is the right way to deal with it, then deal with it like this, I won't interfere again. Interfere. But I still want to remind you that we are a family, I am your brother, you must learn to trust your relatives, especially when you find that there is a hurdle ahead that you cannot overcome no matter what, you must remember to ask My relatives ask for help. Remember?"

Xia Lin smiled and nodded: "I remember, brother."

Xia Liang turned around and said to Zhou Shuo, "Go and deliver a quilt to Song Yan, let him sleep in the study tonight, and let him get out in the morning."

Song Yan's guilt this time was actually of no use to him. Instead, there was another hurdle from the elder brother Xia Liang on the long road of chasing his wife.

But after a night of sleep in the Xia family's study, Song Yan seemed to have figured out something. The next morning, he politely expressed his gratitude to the Xia family, and then left without delay.

After that, Xia Lin entered the test week of dire straits. After two weeks of on and off tests, he finally ushered in the summer vacation of this year.

He had been thinking about what Ke Mei had mentioned to him about the Shicun trainee before. On the afternoon of the last subject, he went to the affiliated hospital to discuss with Ke Mei.

"Yo, it's quite the right time," Ke Mei smiled and asked him to sit down in the duty room and handed him an application form: "If you come with me as a non-staff trainee, fill out this form. We can set off after the approval from above."

Xia Lin took the form and glanced at it, his eyes stopped for a moment on the place name column - Zilin Village.

He had an impression of this village. In the last year, when he graduated from senior year, he participated in a graduation trip organized by his classmates. At that time, they went to several places, one of which was to see the mountain waterfall in Zilin Village.

He still remembered that there were some unpleasant episodes when they were in Zilin Village, but then they all came back without a hitch.

Now that so many years have passed, he can't remember all the details of the incident at that time, but he is impressed by the name Zilin Village.

Now that he has revived his first life, his fate trajectory is completely different from the previous life, but he never thought that he would go to the same place again at the same time.

Destiny is something that can sometimes be unpredictable.

Ke Mei saw him looking at the table in deep thought, and asked aloud, "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

"Oh, no." Xia Lin came back to his senses and covered up, "No problem, but... The name Zilin Village is quite interesting."

"Really?" Ke Mei took a deep look at Xia Lin and changed the subject abruptly: "Have you been in love recently?"

Xia Lin looked up at Ke Mei in surprise: "Why do you ask this suddenly?

I have hardly met you recently, and at first glance, I think you are one by one." Ke Mei nodded his cheek, "there seems to be a little more spring on your face."

Xia Lin suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If you don't have anything, don't guess."

"Okay, let's just take it as my fault." Ke Mei smiled and didn't look into it any further.

Xia Lin filled out the form and handed it back to Ke Mei. The two agreed to contact him by phone two days later, and Xia Lin said goodbye and left.

Ke Mei watched Xia Lin's back disappear at the end of the corridor, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Song?"
