Gu Xiyu's farewell words reached Chen Dafu's ears.
He looked at the back of the figure walking upstairs, regardless of whether the other person could see it or not, he raised his hand with a smile on his face and waved it with joy.
After watching the other party open the door and go in, Chen Dafu stayed downstairs for a while. After confirming that the other party would not come out again, he turned around silently, walked to an electric car, sat on it with his legs raised, and turned the key to start the electric car.
Car, turn the handle with your right hand.
The car moves.
Like a gust of wind, I left this place gracefully.
The cold wind blew on his face as he rode an electric bike on the road. Chen Dafu's hair was blown up and his ears were already red from the cold.
The snow stopped falling towards the evening, and it didn't last long, but even so, the ground was still slippery.
But Chen Dafu didn't seem to care. He turned the electric car's head to the end and flew away...like a gust of wind, like a bolt of lightning.
Of course, when driving at such dangerous high speeds, some accidents will always happen.
Chen Dafu was riding to the corner of the intersection.
He had just turned a corner and was driving when he noticed an electric car coming towards him.
The incident happened suddenly. In order to avoid an accident like a collision, he chose to apply the brakes hard and move his head hard to avoid it.
Because the road surface became slippery after it snowed, the result of this turn was that the car lost control. It was like a wild horse that was out of his control, and it fell down with both people and the car.
Chen Dafu fell to the ground.
He fell down together with the electric car, but not long after, he got up from the ground relying on his excellent physical fitness.
Apart from the pain in my knees and arms, there were no other injuries.
Pedestrians walking on the sidewalk cast their glances at Chen Dafu.
Not paying attention to this, Chen Dafu, who got up from the ground, looked down at his clothes, which were mostly wet, and frowned.
He raised his hand and patted it a few times, but it had no effect...
Just when he was considering whether to go home and change clothes first, the cell phone he was carrying vibrated, interrupting Chen Dafu's thoughts.
I was stunned for a while.
After reacting, he reached out and took out the phone, turned over the crystal flip cover of the phone, squeezed the screen hard with his fingernails, and answered the call from Liu Changqing.
Put it to your ear.
Before Chen Dafu could speak, he heard Liu Changqing's voice on the other end of the phone.
[You said you were coming half an hour ago, where is the person? I’m just waiting for you!]
"Don't worry, don't worry, we'll be there soon!"
【Okay...then hurry up.】
After hanging up the phone, Chen Dafu put the phone away, then sighed, came to the fallen electric car, and helped the car up.
He sat on it and turned his head.
After making sure that there was no major damage, he turned the handle again and headed towards the place where Liu Changqing was after moving.
————————————————————————
Liu Changqing brought the prepared dishes to the table.
The dining table, which can accommodate eight or nine people, is filled with a variety of dishes cooked by him.
Feng Qian took out a dish from the kitchen and went to the dining table to place it. After finishing it, he turned back to look at Liu Changqing who was placing the bowls and chopsticks next to him.
Asked.
"Isn't Chen Dafu here yet?"
"Who knows what's going on with that kid... I called him just now and he said he's almost here."
In response, Liu Changqing distributed the dishes and chopsticks, took out his mobile phone and checked the time, seeing that twenty-five minutes had passed since the call he just made.
He muttered helplessly.
"This boy's horse is really slow..."
As soon as the voice finished, a call from Chen Dafu popped up on the screen of his mobile phone. After Liu Changqing was stunned for a moment, he pressed the answer button and put it to his ear.
"I was about to call you. Where have you been? Well... I won't let you proceed... I understand."
After a few words, Liu Changqing hung up the phone and put the phone back in his pocket. He looked up at Feng Qian with a wry smile and said.
"I'll go down to pick him up. He was stopped by the guard... You first help serve the food."
"good."
After saying that, Liu Changqing walked towards the door. After changing the slippers on his feet, he reached out and took off the coat hanging on the wall and put it on.
He opened the door and walked out.
When he arrived at the door, he saw a familiar figure blocked by the guard.
Pushing the electric car, he looked very embarrassed. When he saw Liu Changqing's figure, he shouted loudly.
After hearing this, Liu Changqing stepped forward quickly and came to the guard. After communicating with the guard, he let him in.
After entering, Chen Dafu, who was pushing the electric bicycle, rode up again, but at a much slower speed, while Liu Changqing followed beside him.
Turning to look at Chen Dafu who was riding an electric bicycle, Liu Changqing couldn't help but be curious when he saw his appearance, and couldn't help but joke.
"Boss Chen, you are tired of driving luxury cars. Are you ready to experience the feeling of ordinary people?"
"Stop being sarcastic. It's just you urging me on the other end of the phone that made me anxious... When I get to your house, you can bring me some clothes to change. I'm half wet..."
"Okay, but... can you still hold it in your stomach? Didn't you say you were going on a date with that little girl?"
"I didn't eat much, so I just went to a small shop to cook a few dishes..."
He said this, but when he heard Liu Changqing mention this matter, Chen Dafu obviously expressed disdain. He was obviously too happy to help himself, but he still pretended to be disgusted.
After this period of hard work, he successfully sneaked into Lan Yixian's shop and worked as an undercover. At first, the woman named Gu Xiyu was wary of him and hardly talked to him.
But with his unremitting efforts, he finally impressed the other party.
Just by washing dishes, you can easily break five of them.
It was this magical operation that impressed the woman named Gu Xiyu, and the two of them successfully started talking to each other from that day on.
Chen Dafu still clearly remembered the shocked look on his face at that time.
After all... In Gu Xiyu's opinion, it is impossible for anyone in this world to be stupid enough to break five bowls in a row. After seeing Chen Dafu's operation.
She immediately proposed to Lan Yixian to fire Chen Dafu.
Although she failed to kill the opponent, in order to prevent Chen Dafu from breaking the bowl again, Gu Xiyu had no choice but to teach him how to do it herself... and took the opponent with her while working.
After going back and forth, Gu Xiyu gradually discovered that although this guy named Chen Dafu looked ordinary, he had a good heart and was quite serious about his work. Slowly, the relationship between the two began to improve.
Today, the last day of the year, Gu Xiyu agreed to Chen Dafu's invitation to go out for dinner for the first time.
Thinking of the scene during today's meal, Chen Dafu couldn't help but feel happy again.
"Hey hey hey..."
Riding an electric bike slowly, he let out an unclear laugh, which was clearly heard by Liu Changqing who was following him.
I couldn't help but look at the silly boy next to me.
He always felt that this guy no longer had the same feeling as when he first met him. With the contact, this guy became more and more like...
Reacting from his silly smile, Chen Dafu suddenly thought of something. As he was riding an electric bicycle slowly, he turned his head to look at Liu Changqing, who was walking beside him, and asked.
"By the way, how many months is your wife pregnant?"
"It's 12 weeks. I'll go to the hospital for a checkup the day after tomorrow."
"It's so fast... I don't know if it's a boy or a girl... Actually, I have already thought about it. When I get married to Xiyu, if both of our families have boys, then we will be good brothers. If we both
If they are girls, then they are good sisters. If they are a boy and a girl..."
"Stop it, how long have you been, and you are still planning to have an arranged marriage? I still advocate children's free love, and they can marry whomever they want."
"No! What a wonderful home we will have when we get married!"
"Shut up, don't even think about this!"
Liu Changqing directly cut off Chen Dafu's thoughts without any hesitation. However, Chen Dafu seemed a little disappointed when he realized that there was no room for negotiation.
The two took the elevator to the door of their home, opened the door and walked in. Then Liu Changqing took Chen Dafu to change clothes.
While Chen Dafu was changing clothes, Liu Changqing pushed open the door of his son's room, called him out as he was reviewing his homework, and prepared to eat.
Then he came to his daughter's room.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw that the curtains in the room were closed, the lights were not turned on, and only the quilt on the bed was supported and bulged.
Liu Changqing was stunned for a moment when he saw this. He was just about to call the two children to eat. He didn't say anything. Instead, he walked forward and came to the bedside. He carefully reached out and grasped the quilt, and lifted the quilt.
The two children were gathered together, lying on the bed as if they were peeking at something.
The moment the quilt was lifted, Liu Changqing looked at the scene in front of him, and the expression on his face began to become strange.
He frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask.
"What are you two...doing?"
Liu Xiazhi and Feng Shuyan were obviously startled when they realized that the quilt had been lifted. They both turned around at the same time and looked at Liu Changqing who was standing behind him with the quilt in his hand.
With his eyes wandering around, Liu Xiazhi suddenly smiled and stuffed what he was holding under the pillow at the head of the bed.
Turning over, he quickly sat up from his lying position and faced Liu Changqing, kneeling on the bed, his tone full of meaning to change the subject.
"Dad...I have to knock on the door when I enter the house...I will forgive you this time. You can't do this next time!"
"..."
There was no response, Liu Changqing looked at his daughter with eyes full of scrutiny, and Feng Shuyan sitting beside her was sitting side by side with Liu Xiazhi in the same posture.
The two little guys were about the same size. Seeing the cute looks of the two children, Liu Changqing looked at them for a while and did not choose to continue to delve deeper. He just said something.
"It's time to eat, you two stop playing."
"Know it!"
"Okay, fat uncle."
Hearing Feng Shuyan call him Fat Uncle, Liu Changqing suddenly became a little happy. After exercising to lose weight, he can no longer be called Fat Uncle.
But once again hearing the other party call him that, Liu Changqing's memory of the first time the two met suddenly came to mind.
I remember it very clearly.
That night... when I was returning home from get off work, I met a little girl hiding on the side of the road with scars all over her body.
Has it been... so long?
Looking at Feng Shuyan's expressionless face as always, Liu Changqing looked at it for a while, then reached out and grabbed her face before she could react.
Pulled gently.
"Little girl, I will call you handsome uncle from now on!"
"Yeah, Dad, stop it!"
Seeing that her good friend was being attacked, Liu Xiazhi immediately rushed forward, grabbed Liu Changqing's hand with both hands and broke it open, and then hugged Feng Shuyan, as if she wanted to protect him.
Shouted loudly.
"Even dad can't bully my good friend!"
"Hahaha, I got it...you two, stop playing and get ready to go out for dinner."
Seeing the two of them getting along so well, Liu Changqing couldn't help laughing, and pretended to turn around and leave. After the two children relaxed their vigilance, he quickly turned back, stretched out his hands and rubbed the two children's heads carelessly.
.
Suddenly they both screamed.
After doing this, Liu Changqing left the room as if running away, closing the door before leaving.
With the slamming of the door, Liu Xiazhi's room became dim again.
Two children stay in bed.
After a while, Liu Xiazhi lay down on the bed again and asked Feng Shuyan to lie down too. After both of them lay down, Liu Xiazhi pulled the quilt away and the two of them were covered in the quilt.
He reached under the pillow and took out what he had just hidden.
Emits faint fluorescence.
In the quilt.
Liu Xiazhi and Feng Shuyan looked at the luminous watch together.
Just listen to Liu Xiazhi talking a little show off.
"Look, it's amazing! This is the watch my mother bought me!"
As soon as he went out and closed the door of his daughter's room, Liu Changqing saw Chen Dafu who had changed his clothes and walked out, and Liu Zhiyue standing in front of him.
The two looked at each other face to face.
Chen Dafu was a little nervous and seemed to have some shadows towards Liu Zhiyue, while Liu Zhiyue looked at him expressionlessly.
Noticing the confrontation between the two, Liu Changqing thought for a moment, walked towards his son, grabbed his wrist, and pulled him to the front of Chen Dafu.
Looking at Chen Dafu who looked wary, he spoke to his son.
"I apologize to Uncle Chen."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Liu Zhiyue looked at Chen Dafu in front of him, and in his mind... the dark figure secretly hiding in the carport downstairs of Zhou Shiyan that night.
That figure gradually overlapped with Chen Dafu in front of him.
Feeling apologetic in his heart, Liu Zhiyue looked at Chen Dafu, who was a little wary of him, lowered his head slightly... and said.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Chen, I did something like that to you last time..."
"..."
Looking at Liu Zhiyue who was taller than him, Chen Dafu was silent and looked at Liu Changqing who was standing aside...
"It's all over now. Just study hard from now on. Uncle doesn't blame you."
After Chen Dafu reacted, he felt relieved. As his vigilance was lifted, he felt much more relaxed. He waved his hand and said as if he no longer cared.
Hearing that Chen Dafu had forgiven his son, Liu Changqing smiled, reached out and patted his son on the back, and then said to him.
"Go...call your mother for dinner."
"OK, all right."
Watching his son go to the bedroom to call An Yuanyao, Liu Changqing paused for a while, walked to Chen Dafu, took him to Feng Qian who was texting at the dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Sitting on the chair, Liu Changqing said to Feng Qian.
"In a moment... how about we drink some together? Any white beer will do!"
"No, I came by car..."
"If you drink too much, you can sleep here with me. There is a room. You and your daughter can sleep in the same room, okay?"
"Okay... Then have a drink to celebrate you moving into your new home."
"Hahaha... Okay, let's have a good drink today, the three of us!"
Laughter floated into the distance through the balcony.
On the last night of this year, Liu Changqing’s home was bustling with activity.
Still remember that day.
Liu Changqing, who also had a hangover all night, woke up and found that he had a splitting headache. When he stumbled out of the room, he looked at the fat boy with an expressionless face.
And...the crying girl.
It seems like a long time has passed, but...it seems like it happened yesterday.
———————————————————————
Empty room.
Li Wanran dressed up quietly and looked at the dining table in front of her, which contained carefully prepared meals and a bottle of valuable red wine.
candlelight dinner.
The scene that should have been very romantic and warm turned out to be particularly desolate because there was only one person alone.
She is sitting on a comfortable chair.
The latest mobile phone was placed in front of him, along with the sound coming from the microphone, and... a phone number marked [husband] that had not been connected for a long time appeared on the screen.
After ringing for a long time, Li Wanran looked at the phone that hung up automatically without being answered.
The expressionless face seemed a little darker.
I don't know how long I was stunned.
She slowly raised her head and looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
Although it was not cold in the room, for some reason... Li Wanran always felt that a chill had slowly surged into his heart.
"call……"
Take a breath.
Li Wanran reached out and turned off the illuminated screen of his cell phone.
Pick up the red wine, open it and pour a little liquid into the goblet in front of you, put down the bottle, and pick up the goblet elegantly.
