Gao Yusheng was obviously stunned, not understanding what it had to do with seriousness.
"Hahaha..." The child couldn't help but laugh, Zhai Chen held back for a moment and couldn't help laughing, waved his hands and jumped out of the car, and walked to a lo-mei store without looking back.
This area is an old residential area, which retains the state of close neighbor relationship of the last century. The nights in early summer are extraordinarily lively. A row of small shops on the street are lit with bright and warm yellow lights. Mosquitoes and pedestrians come and go around the lights, greeting each other.
"Boss, come with a box of duck necks."
"Okay, are you provoking Fang Chuyang again?" The owner of the Luwei shop obviously knew him very well, so he packed a spicy duck neck.
"No, he called me on the way and cried and told my brother to buy it for him."
Zhai Chen took the duck neck and turned around, and found that the shiny luxury car was still parked in the same place, remembering that he hadn't thanked Gao Fushuai for the ride, and snatched another duck neck from the boss.
"See you."
Gao Yusheng had a box of cold loin stuffed in his hand, and frowned slightly as he looked at the man who was waving his back to him.
"Siri, do you say people's personalities change?"
The screen of the mobile phone placed on the stand lit up, and the dialogue interface of the artificial intelligence of the mobile phone appeared, and the clear electronic voice said word by word: "Of course, sir, once the character is formed, it is relatively stable, but it is not static, but malleable. ... From a philosophical point of view, everything is evolving."
The Municipal Public Security Bureau Family Home is an old residential building with no elevator. Zhai Chen stepped up on the first step and opened the door lightly. A police uniform hangs on a hanger in the hallway, the living room lights on, and a shaved man in a black hurdle vest is sitting at the dining table looking through a thick stack of documents. That was Fang Chuyang, the brother of Zhai Chen's household registration book.
"You still know how to come back, why didn't you die outside?" Fang Chuyang mocked him without raising his head.
"If you're already busy enough, I won't increase the workload for your criminal police team." Zhai Chen glanced at his little nephew's room and saw that the door was closed, thinking that he was already asleep.
"Boom!" The paper ball in Officer Fang's hand hit Zhai's bodyguard on the head accurately: "You still have the guts to say, throw Mengmeng at the police station and run away!"
"I can't help it, come on, your duck neck." Zhai Chen threw the lo-mei box on the table without any guilt, turned around and went to the refrigerator to get beer.
Fang Chuyang was enraged by him: "Your duck neck!"
"Shh, don't wake up Mengmeng." He threw the two cans of beer to Fang Chuyang, and walked around the kitchen again. He found that there was rice left for him in the pot, and he happily filled a bowl.
Fang Chuyang loved to eat spicy braised duck neck since he was a child. Every time Zhai Chen provokes him, he would buy him duck necks. Officer Fang stared at the guy who was burying his head in the meal for a while, and nibbled at the duck's neck viciously, as if he was holding Zhai Chen's neck.
Zhai Chen opened a beer, clinked glasses with his brother, and curiously stretched his neck to peek at the information in his hand: "What is that?"
"There was a murder case in Nancheng, and it was transferred to the city bureau to investigate." The investigation of the case is classified, even if it is his own family, Fang Chuyang will not tell him too much. And I also know that the surnamed Zhai is just asking casually, and he may not listen to the truth.
"Well," Zhai Chen took a duck neck to eat, stared at the hair on the top of Police Officer Fang's head for a while, tapped the table with one finger, and said solemnly, "Hey, last night, Dad gave me a dream. "
"What's the matter?" Fang Chuyang looked up at him.
"Trust me to find someone for you."
"roll!"
Before Fang Chuyang raised his hand to beat someone, Zhai Chen jumped up and hid in the kitchen to wash dishes.
Fang Chuyang rubbed his aching head, feeling deeply that he would die young, either because he was exhausted by the heavy criminal investigation tasks, or because he was angry with the bastard Zhai Chen.
"Really, I'm not joking, I've told Auntie Menzhu several times, you can't be a bachelor for the rest of your life with me." Zhai Chen flicked the water beads out of his hands and bounced them on Fang Chuyang's face.
"Our family is like this, let's not harm people." The water beads stuck to Fang Chuyang's eyelashes, and they couldn't fall off, and the atmosphere became inexplicably desolate.
"How can it harm people, the city bureau has a grass, a young criminal police deputy, whoever marries will be happy. Besides, marrying a girl is not for her to take care of children, I will take care of Mengmeng, not to delay things... " Zhai Chen didn't say anything. After that, his brother, who didn't listen at all, got up and went back to the house, closing the door with a bang.
Zhai Chen touched his nose and sat on the table to finish the rest of the beer.
The employer, Li Ting, has to leave for the company at eight o'clock. The kindergarten class starts at nine o'clock, which is just right. The next morning, Zhai Chen rode a foldable electric donkey to pick up people in Caizhuang Xincheng, and stopped in the yard, where Li Ting just came out of the corridor.
"You came here by bike, what about your tram?" Li Ting held a bag in her hand and something that looked like a takeaway list.
Before Zhai Chen could answer, a small fluffy head emerged from behind the handle of the electric donkey, the shaved boy who was white and tender, looked over with innocent eyes.
"The child was not delivered in the morning, so I brought it. You don't mind," Zhai Chen picked up the child who was squatting on the pedals, folded the electric car in three or two, and threw it into the trunk of the car. "What's in your hand?"
"I don't mind, I don't mind," Li Ting handed Zhai Chen the things in her hand. "The advertisement list on the door handle must be taken away in time, otherwise the thief will think that there is no one in the house."
It looks like a normal takeout sales pitch, with bells and whistles. Out of professional habit, Zhai Chen still wanted to come over and take a look. The front side said home-cooked dishes such as "Fish Fragrant Pork Shredded Pork" and "Sour and Spicy Potato Shreds".
"This is a good habit." Praising the employer's vigilance, Zhai Chen checked the car to confirm that there were no explosives and no Tibetans, and motioned them to sit in the back and drive by themselves.
"Is this your son?" Li Ting sat with the child and couldn't help asking.
"Nephew." Zhai Chen fastened his seat belt and drove the car onto the main road.
"Oh," Li Ting sighed with inexplicable relief. It seems that such a handsome man is not common. If he is a father, he will always feel regretful. When he was excited, he asked one more question, "Where is his mother?"
"Gone."
"..." Asking the wrong question, Li Ting closed her mouth in embarrassment and looked apologetically at the little child beside her.
"Hello, sister," the child was a little thin, with particularly big eyes, looking at him with watery eyes, "My name is Zhai Mengmeng."
"Hey—" The girl's heart was suddenly pierced by a small pink arrow, and she hurriedly took off the lop-eared rabbit pendant on her bag and stuffed it into Zhai Mengmeng's hand: "My dear, this is for you to play with."
"Thank you, sister." Zhai Mengmeng raised her head and smiled, pinching the lop-eared rabbit to restore her silence.
The car drove to the square in front of the company building, where there are some open-air temporary parking spaces that can stay for half an hour. Zhai Chen got out of the car, picked up Mengmeng, and followed Li Ting to take her into the building.
"You don't need to send it in these few steps. Drive away. Just come and pick me up at night." Li Ting waved at Mengmeng.
"The duty is, I will take you into the elevator." Zhai Chen insisted on following her, which attracted many people's attention.
It was working time, white-collar workers in suits and leather shoes filed in, and among them was such a man in casual clothes holding a child, like a crab mixed in a school of sardines, very conspicuous. The three of them walking together can easily lead to misunderstandings. Li Ting covered her face with her bag in embarrassment and rushed into the building quickly.
"Gao Yusheng, heartless man, we talked about it for three years and you treated me like this! I'll follow you to eat chaff, start from scratch, abandon me when you are rich! Gao Yusheng, come out! Heartbreaker, bastard, Gao Yusheng, you Come out!" Outside the revolving door of the building, a woman wearing cheap old clothes and a low ponytail, pinched her waist and yelled loudly, with a strong sense of rhythm.
"Why is this woman here again." The white-collar workers passing by whispered.
"Hey, come every Friday, be on time and be on time."
"Who is Gao Yusheng?"
"You don't even know him? Just the last time I met the founder of Punctuation, the handsome man in the elevator, the number one handsome man in the Fortune Building..."
"It's him! Wow, that's no wonder, if I was abandoned by him, I'd be crazy too."
The woman seemed to have inexhaustible energy, pinching her waist while scolding and jumping. After scolding, she explained her past with Gao Yusheng in detail. Zhai Chen watched it interestingly, and stopped to appreciate it for a while.
"What are you doing, hurry up!" The building security quickly came out to chase people away.
"I'm Gao Yusheng's ex-girlfriend, you take me to see him!"
"Put it down, Mr. Gao can fall in love with you? If you are ill, go to the police quickly. If you don't leave, we will call the police!"
It's really interesting, it would be fun if Gao Yusheng happened to pass by, but unfortunately that Mr. Gao drove to work and took the elevator in the parking lot, so he was destined to never meet this "old lover". Zhai Chen shook his head, carried the child back to the car, turned around to go to the kindergarten, and left the brainwashed "Gao Yusheng Heartbroken" behind him.
"Uncle, was that aunt dumped by her boyfriend?" Zhai Mengmeng climbed into the back seat, pinched the lop-eared rabbit and asked curiously.
"Not really," Zhai Chen drove out of the parking lot, just in time to see the luxury car with angel wings driving into the underground garage, "As far as I know, this little Mr. Gao's family is very rich, and he doesn't have to eat chaff in the entrepreneurial period. the problem. And…”
"What is eating bran and swallowing vegetables?" The four-year-old child's vocabulary is not yet enough to understand this advanced idiom.
"I'm very poor, I have no money to eat, I can only eat rice husks and wild vegetables..." After saying this, he suddenly stopped, Zhai Chen looked at the innocent-looking child in the rearview mirror, and pursed his lips slightly.
In my memory, there was once such a soft and glutinous voice, which softened the continuous green waters and green mountains like a mountain stream and a clear spring.
"This is a wild vegetable..."
"Well, this is also a wild vegetable..."
"I don't know each other, but they can all be called wild vegetables..."
…
Tomorrow weekend, the shuttle service will be suspended. Picking up Li Ting from get off work in the evening, she finally realized that the service she bought for a week can only be used for five days, and she regretted it.
"What about seven thousand a week, if you give me a discount of five thousand, isn't it still one thousand yuan a day?" Li Ting said angrily while driving.
"No, if you work overtime on weekends, I will still pick you up," Zhai Chen used a finger to wrestle his nephew's wrist in the back seat. "The discount is to give you two days of random standby for free, which is very cost-effective."
"..." It seems to make sense, and it seems that something is wrong. Li Ting, who can't tell him, can only change the subject, "By the way, Mr. Gao asked me about your name today. How did you two know each other?"
"Huh? What did he say?" When Mr. Gao was mentioned, Zhai Chen's mind was full of "Gao Yusheng's heartless man", but he couldn't think of any other words for a while.
"I didn't say anything, I just said to myself, 'The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and the stars can be picked up by hand'. Oh yes, he even smiled!" In the end, this point seemed even more surprising to Li Ting, eight hours a day. Mr. Gao, who had a cold face for eight and a half hours at work, actually laughed!
"Good literary talent." Zhai Chen boasted casually, pressing Mengmeng down with one finger.
"Elementary school verse, your compliment is too insincere."
"Sorry, I didn't go to elementary school."
"..." I couldn't talk today, and the employer who spent the wrong money chose to shut up.
On Saturday morning, bodyguard Zhai, who was on call at random, slept in the dark at home, forgetting about his employer's discounted services. Just dreamed of golden bricks in the sky, and before happiness opened a hole in his head, the cell phone at the bedside screeched and woke him up.
"Hey, who is it?" He picked it up angrily with his eyes closed.
"It's me, Gao Yusheng." The calm and indifferent voice, with a beautiful tone that relaxes the pores, has an amazing effect on raising the air in the bed.
Negative man? Zhai Chen, who was in a daze, almost pronounced the title, and when he reached the tip of his tongue, he swallowed it.
