"Ahem, there's too much dirt here, come here and help me..."
"Didn't we just agree on the division of labor? The physical work is mine, and the technical work is yours."
"**, is glass cleaning considered a technical job?"
"You said dirty words again..."
Zuo Han and Old Charles walked along the country road for a while, took a farm vehicle, and finally arrived in Boston, where they found the house that Old Charles had mentioned, an old-fashioned apartment with an attic.
But that old-fashioned apartment was too old. Charles hadn't been back for more than ten years. Most of the doors and windows were broken, and the ones that could be moved had long been vacated. It was also located on the most desolate street in the slums, except for some wild cats and dogs.
, almost no one can be seen.
But fortunately, the house is still relatively solid and has water and electricity. After cleaning the room, draining out the old water accumulated in the water pipes, and getting some furniture, it can still be lived in.
The two were bickering over the division of labor when Zuo Han's cell phone rang suddenly. After looking at the caller, Zuo Han pressed the answer button.
"You are so happy in the United States, but I am almost too busy..."
As soon as the call was connected, Zuo Shiyi's whirring voice came from the receiver.
After the incident in Thailand, Zuo Zongwu personally called Zuo Han and asked him to return to the capital as soon as possible, but Zuo Han still declined with the excuse of returning to the United States. The family only allowed Zuo Han to return to Beijing for safety reasons. When he heard that he was going to the United States,
Zuo Zongwu did not insist. Compared with the turbulent capital, the United States on the other side of the world may be safer.
Zuo Han chatted with Zuo Shiyi and learned that the impact of the incident in Thailand was greater than imagined.
…………
Countries care about bionics second only to nuclear weapons, and they also face various human rights doubts. Even if they conduct research, they are conducted in secret. As a result, an unofficial bionic experimental base was discovered in Thailand, and it also had conflicts with China.
some kind of relationship.
Although with the cooperation of the Thai royal family, there was no apparent impact. But privately, China was still under a lot of pressure.
Later, Zuo Tianming planned and persuaded Zuo Zongwu to unblock some secret files to prove the existence of the illegal organization "Xuelan". He said that he had been working hard to eliminate this organization for many years. He also reminded all countries to take strict precautions and be careful of being infiltrated by "Xuelan"
Stealing research data. After all parties went back to investigate carefully, they found many problems and plugged the loopholes in time.
After such a twist, the relevant departments of various countries, who were originally wary or even hostile to each other, decided to follow the model of China's "Chiyou Group" and set up a joint organization to encircle and suppress Xuelan. Of course, not all countries joined in. Giants like the United States and Britain,
He still hasn't let go of his arrogance. Apart from saying that he would cooperate as much as possible, he has not carried out any substantive cooperation.
………………
Zuo Shiyi also used Zuo Han's words in his words. He wanted to see if he was messing around outside again. But Zuo Han was leaking water, and Zuo Shiyi found nothing. However, Zuo Shiyi still didn't hang up the phone and rambled on.
Say anything.
Although Zuo Shiyi would occasionally call Zuo Han, he would not talk so much. Today, I will first talk about the impact of the incident in Thailand, and then there will be some random gossip. It is not normal for such a mother-in-law.
"Have you had enough talk? Is there anything else? If you have anything to say, just say it!" Zuo Han finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Hehe, I was just waiting for your words." Zuo Shiyi chuckled a few times and said, "I have something to trouble you. I can't say it's troublesome. This matter has something to do with you."
"What's the matter?" Zuo Han said happily.
"Our niece, Yuxin, do you remember?" Zuo Shiyi asked.
When Zuo Shiyi asked, that quirky little girl immediately flashed in Zuo Han's mind.
Zuo Yuxin, the daughter of Zuo Shiren, and the great-granddaughter of Zuo Yan.
"What happened to her?" Zuo Han asked.
Zuo Shiyi said: "Didn't she just graduate from high school? She doesn't want to go to a domestic university. She applied for Harvard Business School and was admitted..."
Such a coincidence? Zuo Han's heart skipped an inexplicable jump and he said casually: "Congratulations to her then."
"Don't rush to congratulate me. It's a bit troublesome now." Zuo Shiyi said: "You also know that this little girl is our family's treasure. With such a long hair, she must not be left alone, specially
I was assigned a bodyguard. But this damn girl was lucky. Just a few days after arriving at the academy, the bodyguard was let go.
No, he just called me and said he was lost in downtown Boston and had no money in his pocket. He asked me to think of a solution.
I am a mountain high and the emperor is far away, so what can I do? Doesn’t this make me think of you..."
Listening to Zuo Shiyi's complaint, Zuo Han said helplessly: "I've lost my mind and you still talk nonsense. Tell me the location quickly and I'll go find her right away."
In fact, even if Zuo Shiyi didn't say so much nonsense, Zuo Han would not ignore it. Before his eldest brother passed away, he promised to protect the family. Now Boston is full of murderous intent, leaving a little girl Zuo Yuxin blind on the street.
How can Zuo Han feel at ease while shopping?
He hung up Zuo Shiyi's phone, left old Charles aside who was complaining all day long, bought a second-hand car on the way, and drove to find Zuo Yuxin.
When Zuo Han arrived at the place Zuo Shiyi mentioned on the phone, Zuo Han saw Zuo Yuxin and was speechless.
No wonder Zuo Shiyi was so relieved to chat with him. Zuo Yuxin looked lost. She was sitting in an open-air theater watching a puppet show with a very focused expression. The reason why she saw her at a glance was because besides Zuo Yuxin
, they are all children of the same color.
"Yuxin!" Zuo Han shouted several times, and Zuo Yuxin, who was immersed in the drama, turned her head.
"Uncle Han!" Zuo Yuxin said with surprise on her face, "Wait for me for a while, this scene will be over soon."
"…………"
After looking at it, his attention turned to Zuo Yuxin, who was performing in the puppet show. Zuo Han had no choice but to light a cigarette, lean on the car and wait.
Fortunately, the puppet show came to an end soon, and as soon as she finished smoking a cigarette, Zuo Yuxin ran to Zuo Han's side amidst the cheers of the children.
"Uncle Han, we meet again." Zuo Yuxin gave Zuo Han a bared smile.
"Yes, you are already a college student." Zuo Han was quite emotional.
Compared with the last time we met, Zuo Yuxin has no obvious changes. She is still a quirky little girl with neat short hair. Only her clothes have been changed, and she is in line with the popular European and American style, which makes her a little more mature.
Among the people in the Zuo family, Zuo Yuxin is the simplest one, and the only one who makes Zuo Han feel caring and caring for his elders. Unlike Zuo Shiyi, Zuo Tianming and others, in Zuo Han's eyes, Zuo Yuxin is just a child.
A child who needs to be protected by his elders.
After chatting for a while, Zuo Han asked Zuo Yuxin to get in the car.
"Where to go?" Zuo Yuxin's eyes flashed.
"Send you back to the college." Zuo Han said matter-of-factly: "As far as I know, the first year of business school has the most intensive courses. If you hang out without class, you might be expelled."
"Today's classes are gone, otherwise I wouldn't have come out." Zuo Yuxin said hehely: "Uncle Han, I don't want to go back to the academy, so why don't I go to where you live and have a look?"
"No!" Zuo Han flatly refused: "Even if there is no class, you should go back to the dormitory."
"I won't..."
"obedient!"
"No!"
The veins on Zuo Han's forehead were popping wildly. Zuo Shiyi, who was far away in the capital, put his hands on his waist and smiled without saying a word.
Through communication with Zuo Shiyi, Zuo Han knew that Zuo Yuxin ditched his bodyguard and ran away. Zuo Han didn't intend to tell the truth, but he couldn't let her be so willful. Unfortunately, Zuo Han had no problem doing other things, except
I have no experience coaxing children.
No matter how capable a parent is, there is nothing he can do if he comes home and encounters a disobedient child. Now Zuo Han is obviously in this predicament.
When Zuo Han was having a headache, the phone rang again. It was Old Charles.
"Help, help..." Old Charles' weak voice came from the phone.
"What happened?" Zuo Han was surprised.
"Wall, the wall has collapsed...I'm trapped underneath, come back quickly...save me..." Old Charles' answer almost made Zuo Han choke to death.
When she turned around, she found that Zuo Yuxin had gotten into the car by herself.
Zuo Yuxin didn't hear clearly what was said on the phone, but she understood Zuo Han's face.
"Hey, Uncle Han, are you in a hurry to get back for something?" Zuo Yuxin said with a wicked smile, "I'll come with you."
Zuo Han sighed.
How come no one, old or young, makes me feel at ease? (To be continued...)
