Chapter 773: Warm her, heal her, own her

Lin Lang's voice was warm and full of smiles: "After you deposit the money, you can go first. You don't have to wait for me."

Bai Xiaowei nodded weakly, lost in Lin Lang's gentle and smiling eyes, as if she saw the sea of ​​stars.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Lang and the branch manager hurried to the VIP room on the second floor. The sound of leather shoes stepping on the marble steps gradually disappeared at the stairs.

Bai Xiaowei withdrew her gaze from following Lin Lang and lowered her eyes to look at the gift bag in her hand.

A new Nokia mobile phone worth thousands of yuan, five 5-gram gold bars and two 20-yuan supermarket shopping cards, these were gifts given to her by the bank out of respect for Lin Lang, making Bai Xiaowei unable to hide her happiness.

The bank clerk attentively brought Bai Xiaowei a bottle of mineral water. She pursed her lips into a reserved arc and politely took the mineral water handed to her.

When the teller handed over the bank card for the deposit transaction, Bai Xiaowei did not leave immediately, but sat down on the bench in the waiting area.

The sunlight shone through the glass windows of the bank lobby onto Bai Xiaowei's upper body, refracting the mineral water bottle in her hand into tiny spots of light.

AI generates beautiful pictures of Bai Xiaowei

She looked at the spiraling gilded staircase, quietly waiting for Lin Lang to come down, like a docile and cute kitten.

Bai Xiaowei looked at the deposit receipt in her hand and saw that there was an extra 300,000 yuan in her bank account. She bit her lower lip with joy, and could hardly believe her adventure today.

"Has the story of Cinderella come true? Is Lin Lang my prince?" Bai Xiaowei began to feel amorous out of her woman's instinct.

But when she thought that she was just a mute girl and not even worthy of being Cinderella, Bai Xiaowei's fingers holding the mineral water bottle suddenly tightened.

Bai Xiaowei's heart skipped a beat when she thought of Lin Lang walking towards her and holding her cold little hand in a domineering manner.

Those warm touches suddenly awakened in her memory, the strength with which Lin Lang held her fingertips, the tenderness in his eyes and brows before he turned around, all of which turned into furry vines at this moment, quietly entwining Bai Xiaowei's heart.

It’s so confusing!

Who understands the inferiority and sensitivity of this mute girl?

She is really beautiful, sitting quietly on the bench, her big, expressive eyes blinking and sparkling with beauty.

This was a heartbeat that Bai Xiaowei had never experienced before, a handsomeness that could not be described in words, it could be called a feeling, and Lin Lang just happened to have this feeling.

The more Bai Xiaowei thought about Lin Lang, the faster her heart beat. She tried to calm herself down by drinking water, but the cold mineral water could not relieve her burning cheeks.

The wait is always long. Bai Xiaowei sat quietly on the bench, preparing herself mentally like a mute girl with social anxiety, and imagined hundreds of ways on how she would greet Lin Lang in a while.

It didn't take long before the branch manager saw Lin Lang downstairs in a flattering and respectful manner.

Bai Xiaowei caught a glimpse of the tall figure appearing at the corner of the stairs. The watch exposed from the cuff of his suit was shining with a cold light, forming a huge contrast with the arc of Lin Lang's mouth at the moment.

When she saw Lin Lang walking towards her, all of Bai Xiaowei's mental preparation was in vain. She instinctively stood up and smiled shyly at Lin Lang.

Lin Lang smiled back at first, then stopped in front of Bai Xiaowei and asked gently, "Why didn't you leave?"

Bai Xiaowei made some sign language gestures towards Lin Lang, her hands trembling slightly due to nervousness.

The system prompts that Bai Xiaowei's sign language means "I haven't formally thanked you for helping me out. Thank you, it's nice to meet you!"

Lin Lang replied calmly: "It's a small matter, don't worry about it. I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."

Before he finished his words, Lin Lang's slender figure turned and walked into the light and shadow cast by the revolving door. The sound of his leather shoes stepping on the marble floor gradually faded away.

Bai Xiaowei looked at Lin Lang's departing back, a thin layer of sweat oozing from her clenched palms.

The electronic call numbers in the bank lobby suddenly became blurred, and she could hear her own heartbeat like a drum.

The timid and socially anxious Bai Xiaowei suddenly found courage from nowhere and quickly ran forward to grab Lin Lang's arm.

Lin Lang's body was slightly startled, and when he turned around, his eyebrows slightly raised, and Bai Xiaowei's reluctance was reflected in his deep eyes. He lowered his eyes to look at the hand that gently pulled his sleeve, but his voice was still gentle: "Do you have anything else?"

Bai Xiaowei let go of her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and the tips of her ears were burning red.

She quickly signed, her knuckles drawing messy arcs in the air: "Can... can you give me your contact information?"

Lin Lang was silent for a moment. He didn't want Bai Xiaowei to get too deeply involved and didn't want to hurt a simple mute girl, so he declined politely, "We just met by chance. It's a rare coincidence that we met once and then met twice. We don't need to meet again in the future."

Lin Lang's voice was like a blade wrapped in silk, gentle but irrefutable.

Bai Xiaowei's eyes instantly misted up, and her sign language became more urgent: "Is it because I can't speak that I don't even have the qualifications to be your friend?"

She bit her lower lip, her nails dug deep into her palms, and her tears condensed into crystal droplets on her eyelashes.

Lin Lang's eyes flickered slightly, his Adam's apple moved, and his tone slowed down unconsciously: "Don't get me wrong, this has nothing to do with whether you can speak or not. I am a profit-seeking businessman, and I have many connections with people who have interests intertwined with me. I have no shortage of friends."

After saying this, Lin Lang turned around and left with a ruthless heart.

Bai Xiaowei followed Lin Lang reluctantly and came to the parking lot outside the bank.

After Lin Lang approached the Lamborghini convertible sports car, he looked back at Bai Xiaowei, who was in tears, and asked, "Why, do you have anything else to do?"

Bai Xiaowei looked at Lin Lang with red eyes and said with sign language: "You may have countless friends, but I don't even have one person to talk to. Your appearance today is the only light in my dark life."

"Can you be my only friend?" Bai Xiaowei's eyes were full of anticipation.

Lin Lang looked at the tears that were about to fall from Bai Xiaowei's eyelashes, and his heart softened immediately.

"It's an honor to be your only friend."

Lin Lang's voice was no longer as cold as before, and even carried a hint of imperceptible heartache. She took the initiative to shake hands politely with Bai Xiaowei to show her respect.

Bai Xiaowei smiled sweetly after hearing this. The moment her fingertips touched Lin Lang's, she felt Lin Lang's kindness and warmth.

Before Bai Xiaowei could be happy for more than three seconds, Lin Lang had already pulled his hand back and said without hiding anything: "But I have to explain in advance that I have a girlfriend, and more than one. We can only be ordinary friends, understand?"

Lin Lang leaned on the body of the Lamborghini. The sunlight stretched his shadow very long, casting an ambiguous outline on the ground.

Bai Xiaowei's heart suddenly tightened, and an inexplicable feeling of jealousy surged in her heart, as if she had accidentally swallowed an unripe green plum.

But when she looked into Lin Lang's gentle eyes, the jealousy in her heart suddenly turned into a hint of sweetness.

Bai Xiaowei nodded vigorously, and her slender fingers quickly made an "OK" gesture in the air, with a brilliant smile on the corner of her mouth.

For Bai Xiaowei, being able to become friends with a big shot like Lin Lang is already the greatest gift from fate.

A light breeze blew across the parking lot, lifting the strands of hair by Bai Xiaowei's ears. She hurriedly took out a notepad and pen from her bag and handed them to Lin Lang.

Lin Lang wrote down his mobile phone number and QQ number on a piece of paper, then handed the paper and pen back to Bai Xiaowei and asked with a smile, "Can I leave now?"

Bai Xiaowei smiled shyly, her fingertips dancing flexibly, and asked in sign language: "Since we are friends now, my Xiali car has broken down. Can you give me a ride to the Bubble Pet Shop on the right turn at the end of this street to work?"

Her eyelashes cast tiny shadows under her eyes, and she looked at Lin Lang anxiously and expectantly.

Lin Lang replied without even thinking: "Not on the way."

Bai Xiaowei seemed to know that Lin Lang was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, so she suddenly stepped forward and gently shook Lin Lang's arm.

She raised her face, her wet eyes filled with stars. She used her fingertips to imitate the movement of a puppy wagging its tail, and pointed at her slightly puffy cheeks.

This clumsy yet cute act of coquetry made Lin Lang soften his heart again.

There's no way. Lin Lang has never been able to resist the coquettishness of beautiful women, especially a pretty girl like Bai Xiaowei who is so pitiful.

"Okay, okay, I'm scared of you." Lin Lang sighed helplessly.

Bai Xiaowei walked to the passenger seat with a sweet smile, but she didn't know how to open the Lamborghini's scissor doors.

Lin Lang looked at Bai Xiaowei staring at the car door at a loss, and suddenly felt that this quiet and lovely girl, even in her embarrassment, had an innocence that was unbearable.

"I'll open the door for you, get in." Lin Lang walked over and opened the scissor door of the passenger side, and the hydraulic device made a slight hum.

Bai Xiaowei squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly, then sat in the passenger seat holding the gift bag sent by the bank. The warmth of the leather seat came through her skirt, and the unique mechanical texture of the Lamborghini convertible sports car made her hold her breath.

After Lin Lang returned to the driver's seat, he leaned over and covered Bai Xiaowei. She had never been in love before, so her heartbeat instantly quickened. She mistakenly thought that Lin Lang wanted to kiss her, so she blushed and closed her eyes with a pounding heart.

However, Lin Lang just leaned sideways like a gentleman and fastened the passenger seat belt for Bai Xiaowei.

Bai Xiaowei held her breath and closed her eyes, her body trembling slightly with nervousness. Before Lin Lang could kiss her, she heard a "click" sound from the seat belt buckle.

Bai Xiaowei opened her eyes awkwardly, her face flushed with shame, thinking, "Oh, how embarrassing! What am I thinking? I even thought Lin Lang wanted to kiss me. How embarrassing!"

Lin Lang looked at Bai Xiaowei's blushing face and couldn't help but teasing, "Why is your face red?"

Bai Xiaowei smiled awkwardly and used sign language to say, "No, nothing. The weather is a bit hot today and the convertible sports car doesn't have sun protection."

Lin Lang put on his sunglasses with a smile, started the Lamborghini convertible sports car with one button, and the engine roared like a wild beast awakening.

"Buzz..."

Bai Xiaowei had never sat in a convertible sports car before, and she held the handrail nervously for some reason. She was moved by the sight of Lin Lang driving a Lamborghini with one hand, and her heart skipped a beat.

Because the distance was only two blocks, after driving away from the Hai Bank, Lin Lang quickly sent Bai Xiaowei to the Bubble Pet Shop.

The glass window of the Bubble Pet Shop is very clean. The ragdoll cat is curled up on the lace cushion and yawning, and the corgi is fluttering on the floor with a toy in its mouth.

The Teddy dog ​​was barking out of the window, and the chubby Garfield cat was lying in the cat cage, sleeping with his eyes closed.

"We're here." Lin Lang let go of the steering wheel.

Bai Xiaowei unbuckled her seatbelt reluctantly, and after getting out of the car, she made expectant gestures with her sign language: "Can I invite you into the store for a cup of coffee? The kittens in our pet store are very friendly and cute."

Lin Lang wanted to decline the offer but accidentally caught a glimpse of the Labrador wagging its tail at him in the window. It was Maomao, the dog that had bitten and disfigured its owner Xu Wenkang, turning him into a eunuch, under the control of his beast master.

It turned out that after Maomao bit Xu Wenkang and ran out of the room, he became a homeless stray dog. He was just met by Bai Xiaowei, who kindly took him in at the Bubble Pet Shop.

"Okay, then I'll get off the car and visit your pet shop." Lin Lang opened the scissor door and got out of the car.
