"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry it's so late, I'm not invited." The man's silver-gray suit was smooth and smooth, and he was meticulous from head to toe. Although his eyes looked calm, his attitude was gentle and polite, and even friendly, he still let people be watched. Zhang Chao, who was wearing it, felt a lot of pressure.
He glanced down uneasily at his loose black shirt and grey pants, and couldn't help shaking his legs.
"Uh." He uttered an undisputed syllable.
The man leaned forward slightly, folded his hands in front of him, his slender fingers formed a tower shape, and his eyes fell on the only closed door in the room: "But my purpose today is not to look for you."
Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed a bit and then he looked back on the sofa and shrank, and waved his hands with a paralyzed face: "I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me."
He refused to finish the three consecutive series, resisted and a little cowardly, gritted his teeth and said: "You guys hurry up, if you don't leave, I'll call the police. I'll call the police with one click, and I still have surveillance at my house.
The man smiled and shook his head: "Don't be so nervous, Mr. Zhang, we are not bad people, let alone do anything to you. My surname is Xu, you can call me Mr. Xu."
Just when Zhang Chao relaxed a little, he changed his words again: "But people, I must meet today."
As he said that, he waved his hand slightly, and the two bodyguards behind him immediately walked towards Li Xin's room door.
Zhang Chao: "..." You're talking nonsense! You are a good ass!
"I called the police! I called the police! What are you doing—" Zhang Chao stood up to stop someone.
However, his body is obviously as easy as carrying a chicken for a bodyguard who is tall and strong.
"Pain Pain—" Zhang Chao shouted, "Xiao Yuan called the police!"
"Crench."
Suddenly, a soft sound caught the attention of everyone in the house. Looking around, he saw that the cabinet door at the top of the living room was gently pushed open.
A fair-skinned, slender girl jumped out of it.
On the sofa, the "little boss" who had been sitting expressionlessly next to the man who was playing a statue suddenly stood up suddenly.
The little girl was wearing fluffy white slippers and white pajamas with bunny ears. After landing, she looked at the house with big black eyes.
Then she suddenly moved.
The white shadow flickered.
"Bang-bang-" With two voices, the two bodyguards who restrained the purse flew out and fell heavily to the ground.
Li Xin looked at the table that was knocked over by the two of them unhappily, and pulled Zhang Chao up, who had slipped to the ground.
"...Thank you Ninth Brother." Zhang Chao subconsciously shrank back behind Li Xin, and scratched his hair a little embarrassedly after reacting.
"The little girl is really strong." The man smiled, "Are you Li Xin?"
Li Xin looked at him and said nothing.
"I'm so sorry for taking the liberty to come to disturb me." The man shook his head helplessly and apologized again: "But I hope you can understand my feelings."
"I may be a little too excited, and my behavior is a little rude." When he said this, the man's expression was still as calm as when he entered the door, and he didn't see the "too excited" in his mouth. In front of Li Xin, she stretched out her hand: "My name is Xu Zhen, Du Hanqing's husband."
Li Xin's slender eyelashes drooped, and she raised her hand and shook it back with him.
Xu Zhen retracted his hand and was about to invite Li Xin back to the sofa to sit down, when he turned around and saw that his son was following him.
Xu Zhen was taken aback.
Then he looked at his son, who was usually cold-faced and could not type a word with three sticks. He was so tense that outsiders could not see it, but at a familiar glance, he could see his nervous expression, and he stretched out his hand in a similar way. Shaking hands with the little girl: "Xu Yan."
Xu Zhen: "..."
Mr. Xu smiled and shook his head, and went back to sit by himself.
Li Xin smiled at Xu Yan, reached out and shook hands with him.
This is the first real meeting between the two. Although in terms of appearance, it is no different from the game, but the real breathing and body temperature in real life are still different.
The two hands move away at the touch of a button. Li Xin walked to the sofa and sat down next to Zhang Chao.
Xu Yan calmly retracted his hands, put his back behind him, and walked back to sit.
Five people sat around a table, and no one spoke for a while. Some have so many threads that it is difficult to speak, and some are simply speechless.
Only Xiao Yuan ran over nervously and asked Zhang Chao, "(●—●) Master, are you still reporting to the police?"
Zhang Chao: "..."
Zhang Chao smiled awkwardly, "If you don't report it, go wash some fruit."
With this interruption, the inexplicably quiet atmosphere in the world was also dissipated.
Xu Zhen stretched out his hand, took a sip of the tea on the table, let out a sigh of relief, looked at Li Xin and said, "I have read her... letters, and many of them mention you."
The man's eyes looked like Xu Yan's, they were deep black. His eyes were nostalgic, and when he smiled, there was a bit of lines at the corners of his eyes, making that handsome and calm face finally show some traces of the years.
"She talked a lot about you. She likes you very much." The man said slowly in a slightly hoarse voice, "I thank you very much for sending these things to me. Thank you very much."
"I haven't heard from her in twenty years. When did she… leave?"
"A year ago." Li Xin lowered her eyes and said softly
The man took a breath and said after a long time, "Tell me about her, right? Anything that happened when you two lived together."
"if you are willing to."
Li Xin was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes."
"Wait a minute," Zhang Chao, who was acting as the background next to him, raised his hand, "Should I avoid it? It just so happens that I have something to do with the game."
Xu Zhen raised his eyes, showed a slight smile, and nodded.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Zhang, I think we can be together." Assistant Liu next to him stood up with a smile on his face and followed Zhang Chaodao.
Zhang Chao was speechless.
"We can play games together." Assistant Liu smiled and took out a miracle sensor from his briefcase: "Add a friend?"
Zhang Chao: "... ? What about these big bodyguard brothers?"
The four bodyguards, including the two who just got up from the ground, looked at him when they heard the words, and then pulled out the exact same sensor from their trouser bag in a uniform manner.
Zhang Chao: "..."
All right, just be happy.
Don't think about a total of six men and five strong men sitting in a small bedroom... Playing games is such a strange and refreshing picture. In short, only Xu Zhen, Xu Yan and his son and Li Xin are left in the living room. three people.
Li Xin's eyes drooped slightly, and her soft voice slowly brought out the memories of Ms. Du's past.
"About... twelve years ago, she met me and took me back. We lived in a two-story building..."
Li Xin spoke slowly and scattered. After all, when a person was a child, the memories left behind were always incoherent.
She spoke, and the two men listened in silence.
Xu Zhen's expression and eyes are very soft, and he asks a question or two softly from time to time.
For example: "Which dress did she wear at the time?"
"Did she mention me to you?"
"When did she start to feel bad?"
Li Xin answered one by one.
The long conversation continued until just after one o'clock in the morning.
Zhang Chao in the house is going crazy.
"Big buddies," he put his hands together, "I beg you, can you go? I'm going to sleep, I'm really sleepy, I can't get up, I'm going to sleep! I, want, sleep, sleep."
"It's okay, Mr. Zhang, go to sleep. We can sit on the ground, keep quiet, and we won't disturb you." Assistant Liu showed a reasonable smile, waved his hand, and the four bodyguards sat neatly cross-legged in the corner of the room, wearing Sunglasses, like four silent statues.
Zhang Chao: "..."
Zhang Chao tried his best to squeeze a smile: "Forget it, I think I can play games for a while longer."
As soon as the words fell, the four bodyguards stood up in unison and sat back on the edge of the bed.
This fucking world... Zhang Chao wants to drink a glass of wine.
"Thank you so much for telling us this, it's very important to me and the dog." The conversation in the living room was over, Xu Zhen stood up and shook hands with Li Xin again, the emotion and gratitude in his eyes were very sincere.
The man with white temples still had a calm smile on his face, but his eyes were red.
Li Xin shook her head and said lightly, "I just know that she will want me to tell you this."
Xu Zhen smiled and said again: "I'm here today, there's one more thing, Xiaoli - do you mind if I call it that? I just want to take you back."
"I think this is my wife's wish. She said in the letter that you are her favorite child, and she has always hoped that we can meet you." Xu Zhen's eyes were very gentle, and his tone was negotiable: "You are willing to meet with you. Do we live together, child? I will recognize you as my daughter, provide you with an identity, become a member of our Xu family, and I will do my best to take care of you."
"boom-"
Xu Zhen tilted his head and saw that his son was kicking on the table.
Xu Zhen frowned.
When the man is gentle and calm, he doesn't show it, but once he doesn't bring a smile, the aura of the mountain is very terrifying.
"Be friendly, Xu Yan, this is your sister." Xu Zhen said solemnly.
Xu Yan: "..."
"My son's personality is a bit old-fashioned, he looks a little fierce, but his temper is not bad." When he turned back to face Li Xin, Xu Zhen brought a smile back on his face and said warmly, "He will be a good brother, Xiao Li. Of course, if he doesn't do it well, you tell me, and I teach him."
Xu Yan: "..."
Zhang Chao, who just pushed the door out: "..."
"...Are you leaving?" Zhang Chao stood at the door and asked in a daze.
Everyone present looked at Li Xin, waiting for her to answer.
"Come with me, Xiaoli." Xu Zhen said, and persevered: "You always need an identity to see the outside world, or would you like to go to school? The Xu family is Hanqing's home and yours too. Home. You are my wife's child, and mine if you will."
The man bowed down and looked into the eyes of the girl in front of him with an equal, slightly pleading negotiating gesture: "Okay?"
Zhang Chao looked at this scene woodenly, thinking in his heart, she was leaving... He didn't know what the situation was, but he could hear a general idea.
These people are obviously rich and expensive, and as the man said, he can provide her with identity and make her live well. And he can't do anything, in various senses, on the contrary, she has been helping her all the time.
What reason and qualification is there to say even a single word to stop it.
