016. Live here too

However, Xie Xiaojiang already knew the conditions for Wei Yuhuan to let him go, so he was not as uneasy as he was at first.

"I heard that you did well in the college entrance examination?" Wei Yuhuan asked.

"Not bad." He answered Wei Yuhuan's questions honestly, no longer deliberately hiding anything. Although he didn't understand why Wei Yuhuan asked some of the questions, what did they have to do with drinking

"How much did you take?"

"I got into a key school." At that time, Xie Xiaojiang scored the highest in his school, but he was also the only student in the area who had passed the undergraduate entrance exam but was unable to go to school. However, this was another sad thing for him, and Xie Xiaojiang lowered his eyes, obviously not wanting to talk about it.

Wei Yuhuan was thoughtful and asked a bunch of questions. He originally thought that Xie Xiaojiang would be a little cunning. After all, apart from his face, the impression he left on him was not that good. However, after chatting with him now, he found that it was not the case.

Most of the questions Xie Xiaojiang answered were consistent with the information he had found, except for some very personal information he didn't want to talk about, including "family scandals" related to his father, which he would simply evade with hesitation - this shows that he is very honest. Moreover, he is not like some young people who love to brag and talk nonsense nowadays. On the contrary, he knew that the person sitting opposite him was a successful person who could give him unlimited opportunities, but he did not flatter him, which made Wei Yuhuan admire him very much.

These contrasts made Wei Yuhuan particularly curious. Why would this seemingly innocent child break into a private house

When he asked Xie Xiaojiang this question, the other party lowered his eyes again, looking not guilty but sad.

Xie Xiaojiang was silent for a while, then said, "I was cheated of my money and had nowhere else to go, so I secretly lived in your house."

Wei Yuhuan: "The community is heavily managed. How did you sneak in without being caught by the cameras?"

"The gaps in the fence along the river were quite large, so I squeezed in easily," Xie Xiaojiang touched his nose and said, "A friend of mine told me that ordinary cameras usually have a red light, so I went to the place without a red light. I also observed the security patrol times for two days and saw which houses never had their lights on, so I locked onto a few targets and found the one that was easiest to break into, which was your house."

Wei Yuhuan raised his eyebrows: "My house is the easiest to turn over?"

Xie Xiaojiang raised a finger and explained to Wei Yuhuan seriously: "Yes! The row of houses along the river has the least cameras, and there are many flower beds on the balcony side, which is easy to climb."

Wei Yuhuan's forehead twitched when he heard this...

Forget it, he didn't want to pursue the matter any further. He just wanted the property management to solve the safety issues pointed out by Xie Xiaojiang and call it a day.

One such "hermit crab" is enough, he can't afford more.

The interrogation was finally over. Wei Yuhuan stood up and took Xie Xiaojiang down one floor to go shopping in the boutique men's clothing store in Chenxing Port.

Xie Xiaojiang followed him closely, and became much bolder: "Boss Wei, are you buying clothes?"

Wei Yuhuan said: "I bought it for you."

Xie Xiaojiang was surprised: "Why buy it for me?"

Wei Yuhuan glanced at him and said, "I'll take you out for a drink later. Won't you embarrass me by wearing this?" He had tolerated the iced black tea T-shirt, but he really couldn't tolerate the other person's current tattered cotton jacket that seemed to be wrapped in a layer of dust.

Xie Xiaojiang suddenly realized what was going on and became more cooperative. He flipped through the price tag of an ordinary sweatshirt and his expression suddenly changed again, thinking, "Fuck, is this sweatshirt inlaid with diamonds? It's damn expensive!"

He didn't dare touch it again, for fear that if he broke a button, even if he sold it, he wouldn't be able to pay for it.

Seeing Wei Yuhuan asking him to try on several pieces of clothing, Xie Xiaojiang said anxiously, "Boss, what if I wear out these clothes?"

Wei Yuhuan: "Clothes are meant to be tried on. If they break right after you try them on, it means the quality is not good. It's better not to buy them."

Xie Xiaojiang: "I mean after I buy it back."

Wei Yuhuan: "Then buy more."

Xie Xiaojiang was surprised and asked, "You don't want me to compensate you?"

Wei Yuhuan finally understood what Xie Xiaojiang meant. Did this guy think that these clothes were lent to him? He smiled and said, "I bought them for you in the first place. Why should I ask you to pay for them?"

Xie Xiaojiang was shocked for a long while before he blurted out stupidly, "Boss Wei, you're losing money on this business." After saying that, Xie Xiaojiang belatedly covered his mouth, as if he was afraid that Wei Yuhuan would wake up.

Wei Yuhuan smiled secretly. Yes, someone had lived in his house for free and kicked his penis, and now he had to pay out of his own pocket to buy clothes for him. He felt like a sucker.

But who told him to always pamper his lover? Although he hasn't got the person yet, he has to use the sugar-coated bullet first. Besides, if Xie Xiaojiang can really get Wang Daqi, it will be more than tens of millions of benefits. This kid really doesn't know his own value, haha.

"I have the final say on whether it's a loss or not," Wei Yuhuan took two pieces of clothing and handed them to Xie Xiaojiang, saying, "Not only will I buy you clothes, but if you do a good job, I will also pay you a salary."

Xie Xiaojiang: “…”

Wei Yuhuan picked out three sets of winter clothes for Xie Xiaojiang in one go, one formal set and two casual sets, plus four pairs of shoes of various types, a BVLGARI watch, and dozens of underwear and socks, spending nearly 100,000 yuan in one go.

Xie Xiaojiang only saw him swiping his card like he didn't need any money, buying things, looking confused...

He felt a little uneasy again. This Wei said that if he helped him drink, their grievances would be settled. So drinking once was drinking, and drinking a hundred times was drinking. He had to ask clearly, "Boss, how many times do you want me to help you drink?"

Wei Yuhuan said: "If your alcohol tolerance is up to standard, it will probably be two times, one for tasting and one for the official test."

Xie Xiaojiang pointed at the large and small bags on the ground and the driver who was just summoned by Wei Yuhuan to carry the things, and asked: "Why did you buy so much?"

Wei Yuhuan looked him up and down and said critically, "If you want to help me drink, you have to act as my subordinate, so you naturally have to dress better."

Xie Xiaojiang: “…”

Well, what the boss said was all right. He just understood that he wanted to dress better, but why did Boss Wei even buy him underwear? And he bought him underwear for hundreds of yuan each. Is it possible that even underwear is part of his face? The world of the rich is so hard to understand!

The three of them returned to the car carrying large and small bags, and Wei Yuhuan asked him: "Where do you live now?"

"Company dormitory," Xie Xiaojiang complained in a low voice with a bitter face, "but you asked people to quit their jobs, so I can't go back."

"That's perfect, let's go back to Chunjiang Huajing Garden directly," Wei Yuhuan said with a smile, "I'll let you live there openly, how about that?"

Xie Xiaojiang: “…”

The driver was driving towards Chunjiang Huajingyuan when Xie Xiaojiang suddenly bent down and covered his stomach.

Wei Yuhuan asked: "What's wrong?"

Xie Xiaojiang said, "I have a stomachache. Can we find a pharmacy to stop the car?"

Wei Yuhuan's first reaction was "Xie Xiaojiang is trying to cheat and escape again", and he immediately became alert. Who made this little guy have so many criminal records? But he stared at Xie Xiaojiang for a few seconds and found that the other party was indeed pale, and it didn't seem like he was pretending.

"What's going on?" Wei Yuhuan asked.

Xie Xiaojiang glanced at him with resentment: "You beat me... Uh, just now, I really wanted to, and I ate a little too much."

Wei Yuhuan: "..." Damn it, he had forgotten that this little guy had been beaten by him! He had practiced boxing for two years, and the previous blow was indeed quite heavy.

"Go to the hospital." Wei Yuhuan's face turned pale and he instructed the driver to turn around.

Xie Xiaojiang: "Oh, no need, just go to the pharmacy and buy a bottle of safflower oil and apply it on it."

Wei Yuhuan didn't listen and took him directly to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment. He was relieved only after confirming that it was only a stomach bruise.

Xie Xiaojiang was taken care of carefully. Seeing Wei Yuhuan busying around getting films, giving consultations, and dispensing medicines for him, he suddenly felt a little touched.

This was the first time in his two years in this city that he had been cared for like this, even though this care came from someone who didn't know how to describe the relationship - not a friend, not a relative, not a girlfriend, and certainly not a boss.

In fact, he was a person that Xie Xiaojiang felt indebted to.

Although Xie Xiaojiang was still on guard against Wei Yuhuan, after all, the other party was threatening him with the safety of "Xie Xiaoxi". He was not a fool. If this Wei wanted to get him to drink for him, then when they were in "Hanbao", the other party didn't know that he could drink, so what was the purpose of getting him drunk? Was it just a prank? I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems.

But putting all this aside, starting from this dinner tonight, Wei Yuhuan did make Xie Xiaojiang feel the long-lost "warmth".

As Xie Xiaojiang walked out of the hospital gate with the medicine in his hand, he wondered if he had "Stockholm syndrome"? The stomachache was clearly caused by Wei Yuhuan beating him...

He shook his head to shake off his inexplicable emotions and said to Wei Yuhuan: "Actually, you don't need to come to the hospital. My father often beat me when I was a child. It was much more serious than this. I will be fine after resting for two days."

Wei Yuhuan reached out and rubbed his head, feeling a little distressed, but he said, "Although the old saying goes 'wine has different stomachs', the quality of stomach function is inseparable from drinking. If you are injured by me, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Xie Xiaojiang: “…” So this is the reason? (=_=)

Chunjiang Huajingyuan was not far from the hospital, and the driver took them to the bottom of Quexi Pavilion in a blink of an eye.

Wei Yuhuan took Xie Xiaojiang upstairs and gave him the spare key, saying, "You don't have to climb over the wall anymore, right?"

Xie Xiaojiang took the key, feeling a little embarrassed. He walked two steps inside and saw something familiar on the kitchen counter - Hey, isn't this his induction cooker

Xie Xiaojiang approached with joy, took a closer look, and confirmed that it was correct. After that, he also called Xiao Ding. After hearing Xiao Ding say that the induction cooker had been taken away by Mr. Wei, he gave up hope. He didn't expect to see it again now!

"The property has been returned to its original owner." Wei Yuhuan's smiling voice sounded behind him.

Xie Xiaojiang was moved again: "Thank you..."

After looking around, Xie Xiaojiang asked timidly, "Have the surveillance equipment been dismantled?"

Wei Yuhuan lied with his eyes open: "It's closed, but not demolished yet. I'll ask someone to demolish it someday."

Xie Xiaojiang asked again: "After I help you drink, will you return the photos to me?"

Wei Yuhuan paused and thought, it seems that this guy still cares about me! But he continued to lie: "Yes." When the time comes, there will be real people to accompany me, what's the use of those photos

Xie Xiaojiang didn't know what to say. He thought he was doomed by Wei Yuhuan, but he didn't expect his life to take a 180-degree turn! Not only did he get new clothes and a new job, but now he also had a new legal residence... Oh my God, why did he feel that all this was so unreal

He looked at Wei Yuhuan and asked, "Well, where do you live? It's so late, why don't you go home?"

Wei Yuhuan smiled and said, "I live here too."
