Chapter 493 Black and White Impermanence
Chapter 493 Black and White Impermanence
On second thought, I understood. It turned out that I had delayed the promise I had made to accompany her to watch an art film.
"Xiao Shan, it's not that I don't want to accompany you, I've really been very busy these past few days."
Lin Fan explained with a smile.
"Once things are settled, I will definitely accompany you to enjoy it."
"Mr. Lin is very busy, so it's normal that he doesn't have time to accompany me." Lin Shan lowered her eyes. She had mustered up the courage to invite Lin Fan, but was always stood up.
"Are you still angry?"
Lin Fan supported himself on the table with both hands and stared at Lin Shan.
"Don't be angry, I promise to watch it with you next time."
"I'm just a secretary, how dare I get angry?" Lin Shan's cheeks flushed and her heart beat faster.
"Good things are never too late, and true art is never too late." Lin Fan said seriously.
"Okay." Lin Shan avoided Lin Fan's gaze and forced a smile.
"Then I'll wait a little longer..."
"Oh? So anxious?" Lin Fan asked in surprise.
"That's not what I meant! I mean, I'm very interested in art, you know, it's purely a love for art, nothing else." Lin Shan explained hurriedly.
"I see."
Lin Fan nodded and replied, "Wait a little longer, I'll be right there."
"Ah?" Lin Shan widened her eyes.
Lin Fan quickly changed his words: "What I mean is, I can make time soon."
"Oh, I see." Lin Shan breathed a sigh of relief, although she couldn't explain why she felt relieved.
Lin Fan chatted with her for a few more words until he saw her smile, then he turned and walked into the president's office.
Looking at his back, Lin Shan thought to herself: How great it would be if he was not Mr. Zhao's partner.
"Ziqing, it's time to get off work." Lin Fan pulled out a chair and sat opposite.
"Yeah." Zhao Ziqing responded coldly without raising her head.
Lin Fan noticed that the atmosphere was not right: "What's wrong?"
Finally, Zhao Ziqing raised her head. "I heard that you asked Shen Wei to spread the word in the circle, not letting anyone get close to Xu Jingjing? And you also said she was your woman?"
"What!" Lin Fan was so surprised that he was speechless.
"Who started this rumor? It's absolutely not true! I just went to help Xu Jingjing out that day, and later asked Shen Wei to remind everyone not to disturb her. After all, she is our partner."
Zhao Ziqing listened quietly with cold eyes.
"Really, I didn't say that." Lin Fan raised his hand and swore.
"Besides, we've only known each other for such a short time, how could that be possible?"
"Then do you think that other people will look down on the man I choose with my vision?" Zhao Ziqing asked with a frown.
Lin Fan was speechless for a moment, and said helplessly: "How about I stay out of Xu Jingjing's affairs from now on? I hope you won't misunderstand me."
"Who misunderstood? I just heard some rumors and asked." Zhao Ziqing's tone was still cold.
"But I've been handling this matter from the beginning, so I should be the one who continues to be responsible for it until the end," Lin Fan suggested.
"But if rumors spread again, won't it affect our relationship? Let's just forget it." Lin Fan shook his head and said.
"Besides, according to what you said, since you have taken a fancy to me, there is no guarantee that no one else will be interested in Xu Jingjing. I can control myself, but I cannot control the emotional changes of others." Lin Fan added.
Zhao Ziqing said calmly, "Even if it wasn't Xu Jingjing, there would be Zhang Qian and Wang Qian. Men are always out of control."
"No need to say more, the responsibility still lies with you," she added.
Lin Fan sighed and reluctantly agreed.
"I see. Is it about time to get off work?" he asked.
"I still have some things to deal with, it will take about twenty minutes." Zhao Ziqing replied.
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside."
After Lin Fan left the president's office, he immediately called Shen Wei.
"Shen Wei, are you saying bad things about me behind my back?"
"What's going on? I didn't say anything!" Shen Wei was confused.
"I heard that you spread rumors in the circle, saying that Xu Jingjing is my person and don't let others get close to her." Lin Fan said angrily.
"Oh, I just said you were good friends, but I don't know how it turned out like that." Shen Wei seemed a little aggrieved.
"Fortunately, I responded smartly, otherwise I would be in big trouble." Lin Fan complained and hung up the phone, but found that Lin Shan was looking at him in surprise.
"Brother Fan, is Xu Jingjing really your girlfriend?" Lin Shan asked nervously.
"We've only just met, how is that possible?" Lin Fan explained.
"But there is love at first sight too. Brother Fan, you are so outstanding."
"Come on, stop flattering me. Mr. Zhao still needs to work for a while, so why don't we find a place to kill time first?" Lin Fan suggested.
"Here?" Lin Shan asked in surprise.
"Where else can we go? What if we watch a movie together alone and we can't control our emotions?" Lin Fan teased with a smile.
"Brother Fan, movies are also art. We should look at them with appreciation." Lin Shan tried to change the subject, feeling a little uneasy.
Just as Lin Fan was about to continue joking, his cell phone rang.
"Brother Fan, two guys came to see you. They said they wanted to settle a score with you. They also threatened to make the company bleed to pieces if they don't see you within three minutes."
Xu Kai's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's going on..." Before he could finish his sentence, a crashing sound and Xu Kai's screams were heard from the other end of the line.
Lin Fan's eyes suddenly became sharp. Is this a real fight?
"Are you Lin Fan? Come out and see us, otherwise all these people will be in trouble." A cold voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xu Kai, are you still alive? If you are, bring them to the parking lot." Lin Fan responded in a cold tone and then hung up the phone.
"Xiao Shan, I have something to take care of. I'll discuss art with you later."
"What is Brother Fan going to do? Why do I feel something is wrong? Is this what they call murderous intent?" Lin Shan muttered in her heart as she watched Lin Fan's departing figure.
When Lin Fan arrived at the parking lot, he saw Xu Kai leaning against a car with one hand covering his chest and blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
There were two men standing next to him, one in a black suit and the other in a white suit, which at first glance looked very unusual.
"Brother Fan!" Xu Kai saw Lin Fan appear and barely straightened his body.
With a bang, the man in the black suit kicked Xu Kai away.
Xu Kai rolled on the ground for a few times and spat out a mouthful of blood. Although he looked in a very bad condition, he still held back his groans in front of Lin Fan.
"Are you Lin Fan?" the man in the white suit asked with a smile.
"That's right." Lin Fan glanced at Xu Kai, confirmed that he was still alive, and did not immediately go forward to help.
"Who are you?" Lin Fan asked.
"I'm Xie Bian, and this is my brother Fan Wujiu." The man in the white suit introduced him in a friendly manner.
"Xie Bian? Fan Wujiu?"
After hearing the name, Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two people's outfits and felt a little strange.
"Black and White Impermanence?" Lin Fan asked tentatively.
