"Hehe... don't mention it. It's really easy to get sick when you sleep with the air conditioner on. This means you are young and strong, so you should be more careful in the future." The driver will not get involved in the bad things between the two of them.
Returning to Hong Tao's courtyard again, Sam and his wife were picking vegetables in the yard. When they saw Hong Tao returning with a girl, Sam quietly winked at Hong Tao behind his wife, made gestures in front of his chest, and stretched out his hand.
A thumbs up, probably means that he agrees with Hong Tao's aesthetic views.
Hong Tao didn't introduce him to either party. He was a person who was beyond his reach, so it was best not to be so familiar with him.
"You go to sleep for a while first. I will put the medicine on the bedside table for you. When the alarm clock rings, you take the medicine. Don't forget, I will go to the store first and come back to bring you dinner in the evening. What do you want to eat?
"Hong Tao took out a new set of clothes from the closet and walked to the outhouse to change them. The original clothes were soaked with sweat when he sent Zhou Xiaoli to the hospital.
"I'm a little scared to be alone. How about you stay with me at home for a day." Zhou Xiaoli's answer came from the back room.
"I'm afraid of you. My house is not a haunted house. My smoking is not good for your illness. You have to check the store. You can go to bed by yourself. I'm leaving." Hong Tao doesn't have the problem of caring for flowers. Besides, this
Wherever I think of flowers, they are all cacti.
"I'm a patient and need care!" The voice in the back room didn't sound sick at all.
"You can't even call a fever a disease. If I had a fever, I wouldn't even go to the hospital. I would just eat something and sleep under the covers. And from how angry you are, I should be fine."
See you in the evening." Hong Tao finished changing his clothes, opened the door and left. Don't mess with women who are sick. They are basically unreasonable and have all kinds of coquettish ways. They are not finished until you are sick.
"You're a pig!!!" With the curses coming from the room and the surprised expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Sam, Hong Tao happily ran out of the courtyard. "My dear, this is retribution for making it difficult for you yesterday!"
Not long after arriving at the store, Mr. Zhou came with Manager Wang. The purpose of their meeting with Hong Tao was to confirm some details of the contract. The two parties chatted for a while in the office of the fishing gear store. From their words, Hong Tao could tell
, they did not know Zhou Xiaoli’s specific movements, let alone Zhou Xiaoli’s return to Beijing.
"Mr. Zhou, Secretary Zhou hasn't come back yet? You are an incompetent boss. You can't even control your own secretary." After talking about business, Hong Tao pretended to be joking and asked Mr. Zhou.
"Hey, she said she was a secretary, but in fact she was sent by a Japanese company. I can't command her, but she can command me just fine. Didn't you also look for her? I couldn't find her, so I could only leave a message to their company.
." Mr. Zhou's tone was full of helplessness and complaint.
"The Japanese are quite interesting. By sending such a little girl to cooperate with Mr. Zhou, are they planning to use a honey trap on you?" Hong Tao continued to poke at Mr. Zhou's weaknesses.
"Secretary Zhou is not just an employee. She has a high vision. She usually makes the decision directly on matters related to Japanese companies and never discusses it with our Mr. Zhou." When Manager Wang on the side heard the word "Honey Trap", he immediately felt like he was being taken advantage of.
Whoever stepped on his feet would have a sour taste in his words.
"Don't talk nonsense, Xiao Hong. We've finished talking about the business. Brother, I'll go ahead. I still have a wave of customers to deal with tonight." Mr. Zhou's government is much deeper than this manager Wang. He doesn't care about the internal affairs of his company.
Even if he didn't want to tell anyone, he stood up and said goodbye to Hong Tao.
"Oh, it's reliable. You're not an ordinary employee. Things in the Japanese head office can be dealt with first and later. This is the rhythm of the company's top management." After sending away Mr. Zhou and Wang Yun, Hong Tao declined the offer of the fishing friends in the store.
Bullshit invitation, I went back to the office alone, closed the door and thought about it carefully.
"It seems that I still need to work harder. I have to bear the humiliation and take good care of this person, both mentally and physically. I guess there is still hope for this overseas visa issue." Thinking of this, Hong Tao suddenly felt that noon
Leaving Zhou Xiaoli alone at home to fend for herself is a bit too heartless, and is not conducive to enhancing the relationship between the two.
But it was still too late to compensate. He looked at his watch and saw that just after 3 o'clock, Hong Tao quickly borrowed Gao Ming's bicycle and pedaled all the way to the vegetable market to buy some food and 2 pig's trotters.
I rode all the way back home.
As soon as he entered the house, Hong Tao's hair felt a little numb, and the fire in his heart rushed up. There was a fishing rod on the table in the outer room, and a white bra and panties were draped on it. There were water stains on the ground.
There was a lot of ticking. There was a large pile of clothes on the bed in the back room, and the closet door next to the bed was still open. Many of Hong Tao's clothes were turned out and placed on the bed, even the drawer for underwear was not left alone.
In the bathroom, the washing machine was still spinning, but the drain pipe was not inserted into the floor drain. Instead, it was placed on the floor. The floor of the bathroom was covered with water and foam. What was even more crazy was that there were water droplets everywhere on the washing machine.
Coupled with the appearance of a new toothbrush and a new towel on the sink, it was obvious that she had taken a bath here just now and did not close the waterproof door.
"She's not afraid of being electrocuted!!!" Hong Tao gritted his teeth and looked at his house in a mess. He lost interest in cooking. He threw the vegetables and pig's trotters into the kitchen, lit a cigarette and sat there.
Angry on the couch.
"That's not right. Her clothes have been washed. Where can she go wearing my clothes?" After calming down, Hong Tao finally remembered that Zhou Xiaoli wouldn't go far. Her clothes had been washed. It looked like she had turned over.
I made do with Hong Tao's clothes, but I still have the high heels and the small handbag.
"Huh? The key! She's in my room!" Hong Tao waited and didn't come back. While he was wandering around the room, he suddenly saw a bunch of keys inserted on the door of his small south room.
This small south room was Hong Tao's former university room. He had lived in it since he was a child. After his parents left, he moved to the two north rooms, and the small south room was used by him as a study or studio.
A first-class place. It contains not only his photo albums from childhood to adulthood, transcripts, and some memorable items, but also his computer, various small collections, and several bottles of fish scale water. The most important thing is that magical fish scale.
The recipes for fish scale water and pellet feed recorded by Hong Tao are also placed in this room.
"Look what she is doing?" Hong Tao did not push open the door rashly, but ran to the small passage at the back of the house, reached out and slowly pulled out a roll of newspaper from the wall next to the window air conditioner, which was an air conditioner eye.
When I first installed the air conditioner, I initially planned to install a split-type one. However, because Hong Tao's house was too small, he finally chose a window-type one. This was useless. Hong Tao blocked it with newspapers from the outside and hung a small ornament inside.
It just blocks the hole, but not completely. You can still see the situation inside the house through the gaps in the small ornaments.
At this time, Zhou Xiaoli was wearing a large Hong Tao vest with her thighs exposed, crawling on the desk and copying something with her head down. What was placed in front of her was the small book that Hong Tao used to record the proportions of bait mixes.
"Okay, I'm here to lure the wolf into the house. The beauty trap didn't work on Mr. Zhou. It's all a benefit to me." Hong Tao saw that the plastic bag where he put the fish scales did not attract Zhou Xiaoli's attention, and he felt at ease. Those
She could look at the fish scale water and the mixing records as she pleased, and Hong Tao wouldn't feel bad even if he took all the water away, because there was no mention of fish scales on the bottle or in the records, and they were basically time and Arabic numerals.
After thinking for a few seconds, Hong Tao decided not to reveal Zhou Xiaoli's identity for the time being. He tiptoed back to the kitchen, picked up the vegetables and pig's trotters he had just bought, then quietly slipped out of the yard, got on his car and ran back to the fishing gear.
store, then picked up the phone in the office and dialed Zhou Xiaoli's mobile phone.
The call went through, but no one answered, so Hong Tao had to call his home phone again. Since there were extensions in every house, Hong Tao was sure that Zhou Xiaoli could hear the phone ringing.
"Hello? Who is that?" Zhou Xiaoli's voice came from the phone, and it sounded so soft.
"Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I'm going home right away and buying some food for you to make dinner." Hong Tao gritted his molars to prevent himself from swearing.
