My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks-Chapter 846 - 857 good deeds, bad deeds
Chapter 846: 857 good deeds, bad deeds
Lin Lijun had originally been at a conference in a certain city when an urgent call from his daughter brought him out.
"Sweetheart, what’s the matter!" he asked in surprise as he stepped outside.
Lin Xiangwan was dressed in a pink dress, white pencil pants, and layered with a white petite trench coat. Her tall and slender figure, along with her pure outfit, made her look exceptionally fresh and lovely. frёeωebɳovel.com
She didn’t look at all like a woman who had given birth to two children, not at all like a mother of a seven-year-old.
Upon hearing her father call her "sweetheart," Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but frown. "Dad, I’m already twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, please don’t call me that anymore!" she said, somewhat embarrassed.
Lin Lijun didn’t see it that way. "No matter how old you get, you’ll always be my daughter, my sweetheart!"
As he said this, Lin Lijun also patted his daughter’s head.
Lin Xiangwan stepped back to avoid it. "Dad, if you do this outside, people will think I’m mentally challenged!"
"Haha, my daughter is a top student from City B. How could she be mentally challenged!" Lin Lijun patted her head again.
Little did they know that these actions had been captured by a paparazzo lurking in the corner.
How could the father and daughter, with their clear consciences, constantly be wary of the media?
"What’s the matter, really? I was in the middle of a meeting!" Lin Lijun pointed inside, where the meeting was still in progress.
"Dad, um, I’d like to have a meal with you when you have time!"
"A meal?"
"Yes!" Lin Xiangwan’s beautifully large eyes shone brightly. "I’ve never had a meal alone with Dad, and I feel like we still have a lot to talk about. It’s not that convenient when Mom is around..."
Lin Lijun glanced at his watch. "Then wait for me for ten more minutes, and then we can go out! What do you want to eat? I’ll have the secretary book a table!"
"No need, I’ve already booked a table!" Lin Xiangwan hurriedly said. "As long as Dad can spare the time, we can go ahead!"
"All right, see you in ten minutes!" Lin Lijun waved to his daughter and returned to the conference.
Half an hour later, led by his daughter, Lin Lijun arrived at a private room in a Chinese restaurant.
There was a gentle woman sitting in the room who stood up immediately upon seeing Lin Lijun. "Mr. Lin, hello!"
Lin Lijun looked at his daughter, puzzled. "Who is this?"
Lin Xiangwan smiled sweetly as she introduced, "Dad, this is Miss Wang. She teaches English at XX Middle School, and her English is very good. Moreover, she has been an outstanding teacher in City B for ten consecutive years!"
Lin Lijun was even more surprised. "What? Is this the home tutor you found for Tongtong and Ranran? I don’t oppose hiring a home tutor, but Tongtong and Ranran have just started first grade. Isn’t it too early to hire a middle school teacher to tutor them?"
Miss Wang stood aside, smiled awkwardly, and looked at Lin Xiangwan.
"Miss Wang, don’t mind it. My dad has been particularly busy lately, and I haven’t had the chance to tell him!" she said and then turned to her father. "Dad, this is the lady I wanted you to meet. Miss Wang has a particularly good personality, Dad..."
She winked and made faces to convey her real intention to her father.
Lin Lijun also frowned at his daughter. This girl—how could she not seek his opinion and act recklessly on her own?
"Miss Wang, I’m sorry, but I just remembered that I have an important document to sign, and I need to go back now. You and my daughter can keep dining, and I’ll take care of the bill!" Lin Lijun said, his attitude especially humble and enthusiastic.
This was also his indirect refusal.
Teacher Wang was a bit surprised. "It’s okay, you can wait if you like!"
Lin Lijun waved his hand. "No need to wait for me, I have work later and won’t be able to come out immediately!"
After saying that, he walked to the door.
Lin Xiangwan chased after him, looking very unhappy at her father. "Dad, what are you doing? Are you just going to leave? Teacher Wang is a very good catch, it’s not nice to just leave him hanging like this!"
Lin Lijun stopped in his tracks, unwillingly looking at his daughter. "Good or not, you’ve brought this upon yourself. This is your issue, and you must deal with it yourself!"
"Dad..."
"I have things to do, I’m not discussing this now!" Lin Lijun walked quickly, taking the stairs two at a time and entered the elevator.
Lin Xiangwan, wearing stiletto heels and especially the very high ones, naturally ran slowly. By the time she got to the elevator, it had already descended.
"Ah..."
Lin Xiangwan was so annoyed she scrunched up her nose.
By now, Teacher Wang had already come out, and Lin Xiangwan turned around and bumped into him, feeling extremely embarrassed. "I’m so sorry, Teacher Wang, my dad is really busy with work!"
"It’s okay, I saw that your dad didn’t fancy me, and that’s alright!" Teacher Wang said magnanimously.
Lin Xiangwan was particularly embarrassed. "My dad isn’t usually like this, I don’t know what got into him today. But Teacher Wang, you’re really great, I think you would be a particularly good match for my dad!"
"Ah... whether two people can be together still depends on fate. I think your father and I don’t have that fate!" After saying this, Teacher Wang left.
Lin Xiangwan stared blankly at the empty room.
Qin Muchuan came out of another private room and hugged her from behind. "It seems doing good deeds isn’t easy, huh?"
"What should we do? I’ve ordered quite a bit of food, is this just wasting money?" Lin Xiangwan said feeling pain over the wasted money.
"It doesn’t matter, let’s consider it support for this restaurant. You know how hard it is nowadays to make a business work, making money is even harder. Ordering so much is also a good deed!" Qin Muchuan said comfortingly.
"But their family makes a lot of money, okay? Their restaurant is always full, okay?" Lin Xiangwan said, getting really upset. "Wuu, no, I can’t just let people make money for nothing, Qin Muchuan, let’s eat it ourselves!"
Qin Muchuan shook his head resolutely. "No, I drank too much last night, I have no appetite! Let’s not bother with this, let’s just go!"
"Oh no, that would be such a waste, right? How about we take it to go, and eat it at home!" Lin Xiangwan couldn’t bear it.
"It won’t taste good after we take it home!" Qin Muchuan felt like laughing at her suggestions.
"Or maybe... we could invite the restaurant’s staff to eat, how about that?" Lin Xiangwan suggested.
"We can! However, I don’t know if the boss will agree!"
"There shouldn’t be a problem!" Lin Xiangwan blinked. "You go, order it, I think the boss will give you the face!"
If it’s a command, then there isn’t a reason for the boss to not give face, right? Naturally some courtesy must be given.
