Zhou Zichen didn't expect that Cheng Ye would actually hang out with Li Jiangyi and the others. Although Mr. Cheng had some money, it was still too little for a rich kid like Li Jiangyi. Logically speaking, they couldn't hang out together.
However, Zhou Zichen was not interested in how they got together. Zhou Zichen was thinking about whether he should talk to Cheng Ye. After all, Li Jiangyi was not a good person.
Another point is that I don’t know if we can find any evidence about Li Jiangyi from Cheng Ye.
Zhou Zichen asked the clerk to get off work first, and sat in the store. He sent a message to Cheng Ye, asking him to come to the store after playing. Although there was no reply, Zhou Zichen did not leave, but stayed alone to wait.
.
It wasn't until after two o'clock in the morning that Cheng Ye replied: "Are you still here?"
"Here!" Zhou Zichen quickly sent over.
"In the store?"
"right!"
"You are so awesome, just come!"
The antique street usually starts to close at 5:30 in the afternoon, so at about 2 o'clock in the morning, there are almost no people in this whole street.
Zhou Zichen only waited for more than ten minutes when he saw a black hard-top Jaguar F-Type parked at the door. Cheng Ye got out of the car and strode into the store: "Is there something urgent? You've been waiting here for so long.
"
Zhou Zichen looked into Cheng Ye's eyes and asked, "How is your relationship with Li Jiangyi?"
"Why are you asking this?" Cheng Ye said: "It's so so, we can only count it as acquaintance."
"Mr. Cheng knows?" Zhou Zichen asked again.
Cheng Ye looked at Zhou Zichen warily, then put his arm around Zhou Zichen's shoulders and smiled to please him: "Zi Chen, you're not going to sue me, are you?"
Zhou Zichen shook his head with a smile, but he was already somewhat confident. It seemed that Cheng Ye was just hanging out with the group of young men, but he was not very familiar with Li Jiangyi. He probably knew each other and had played together: "Those who know Dynasty KTV
One thing?”
Cheng Ye's smile disappeared immediately and he almost jumped up: "That matter has nothing to do with me. I wasn't there, and I wouldn't do such a thing."
Zhou Zichen continued to ask: "Then what is your relationship with Li Jiangyi?"
Cheng Ye hurriedly explained: "I have raced cars with him. My skills are not bad. We usually sing together. I don't have much time. We rarely get to play together. They only like to call me when we are racing."
Zhou Zichen nodded: "Do me a favor!"
Cheng Ye immediately became alert: "What do you want to do?"
Zhou Zichen said firmly: "I want evidence of Li Jiangyi's crime."
Cheng Ye's face was already a little ugly, and he immediately took out a cigarette, stood at the door of the store and lit it: "Are you a policeman?"
"no!"
"Then why do you care so much? If Li Jiang dares to kill someone, why don't you go and investigate him? If you don't want your life? If you don't want your life, don't drag me. I still want to support my father until he retires."
Zhou Zichen had already thought of a countermeasure. Cheng Ye had liked Li Tingfeng since he was a boy, so he opened his mouth and said, "I know Li Tingfeng. Please help me. I will take you to find him next time."
Cheng Ye really didn't know the details of Zhou Zichen, and Mr. Cheng never told him.
But regardless of whether Zhou Zichen knows Li Tingfeng or not, just meeting his idol or having some fun is not worth his life: "No!"
Zhou Zichen added: "You don't want to stay in this city forever, do you? You also know my eye for antiques. I can take you out with me in the future. I believe you don't want to live under Mr. Cheng's eyes all the time."
Cheng Ye has a wild temperament and has always wanted to go out and develop on his own, but his father won't let him. Zhou Zichen is also favored by his father. If he follows Zhou Zichen to go out and develop, maybe his father will really agree.
Cheng Ye was a little excited. Freedom and idol seemed worth fighting for. But thinking of Li Jiangyi's ruthlessness, his whole body trembled and he shook his head repeatedly: "No!"
Zhou Zichen stood up and said, "Then I'm going to tell Mr. Cheng that I can't watch you keep playing like this with Li Jiangyi and the others. Sooner or later you will get angry."
"You close the door, I'm going back first."
After Zhou Zichen finished speaking, he walked outside.
Cheng Ye quickly grabbed Zhou Zichen: "Okay, you win, I promise you."
Cheng Ye was really afraid that Zhou Zichen would tell his father these things and just go out to play. If his father knew that he was with a scum like Li Jiangyi, he would have his legs broken even if he wasn't beaten to death.
Cheng Ye knew his father's temper very well. He hated those who bullied the weak and had no moral bottom line, and Li Jiangyi and his group happened to be what his father hated the most. When the Dynasty KTV time was reported to the news, the old man
Dad also muttered and cursed a lot.
Zhou Zichen nodded with a smile: "That's right, close the door and go back to rest! It's not early today. Regarding Li Jiangyi's matter, we have time to do it together."
Cheng Ye looked at Zhou Zichen's leaving figure and didn't know whether he was right or wrong in agreeing to Zhou Zichen tonight.
After getting up early in the morning, Zhou Zichen took some time and planned to visit the orphanage first, as he hadn't done so in some days.
However, when Zhou Zichen arrived at the orphanage, he found that the conditions in the orphanage were not as he imagined, and were only slightly better than before.
Zhou Zichen took out his phone and called Wang Ziqi. As soon as the call was connected, he asked, "Wang Ziqi, why is the orphanage still like this?"
Wang Ziqi asked: "Are you in an orphanage?"
"Answer my question, why is the orphanage still like this?" Zhou Zichen asked.
Wang Ziqi still won't mess with Zhou Zichen about the orphanage: "The money you give every month is only enough for the children's normal living standards, and there are still many things to buy, including clothes, quilts, and children who go to school.
The stationery and some beds also need to be replaced. These things used to be made up or donated by the society. These days I have replaced a small part, and the remaining money can only ensure their nutrition."
If you are not a wealthy person, you will not know that oil and salt are expensive. Zhou Zichen has never calculated these things before. Now that Wang Ziqi said this, after a little calculation, it really costs a lot of money: "I'm sorry, I'm a little angry.
Yes, where are you?"
"On top of your head!" Wang Ziqi's voice came from upstairs.
Zhou Zichen looked up and saw Zhou Zichen wearing pajamas, standing on the top floor, where there was a place for staff to stay.
"Come down and change your clothes. Follow me to go shopping and change everything that needs to be changed in the orphanage." Zhou Zichen said on the mobile phone.
"Okay, wait for me for ten minutes."
It was said to be ten minutes, but Zhou Zichen played with the children down there for more than half an hour before Wang Ziqi came down.
"Make a list and let's go shopping together later," Zhou Zichen said.
Wang Ziqi took out her mobile phone, found a document, and sent it directly to Zhou Zichen: "It has been done a long time ago. It is written on it. Take a look."
Zhou Zichen clicked on it and took a look, and there was a long pile. First, there was a reserve of towels. Each child had to change towels regularly. There were two towels for each child, and more than a hundred were given out at a time, including toothbrushes, toothpaste, socks, and clothing.
The quilts and some beds need to be replaced. It's already autumn, so you can also prepare suitable heating equipment...
Looking at these lists, if I buy them all and leave a part for the orphanage as a backup, it will indeed require a lot of money. The normal daily expenses are simply not enough to purchase these. Wang Ziqi can purchase some, and already
Very economical.
For a whole day, Zhou Zichen and Wang Ziqi ran outside and rented a small four-wheeler to follow them, otherwise they would not be able to take it with them.
After a busy day, I saw that all the dilapidated things in the orphanage were thrown out and replaced with new ones. I immediately felt a sense of accomplishment, which was more comfortable than picking up missing items.
I originally thought that after this big purchase, the orphanage would be able to operate normally. Who knew that at noon the next day, Wang Ziqi called and asked Zhou Zichen to go to the orphanage.
When Zhou Zichen arrived, Wang Ziqi was arguing with a middle-aged woman about something, and the children were too frightened to speak.
Zhou Zichen came in and stopped the quarrel between the two people, and asked: "Ziqi, what's going on?"
Wang Ziqi pointed at the middle-aged woman and said: "This woman said that she is the director of the orphanage. The director's grandma entrusted the orphanage to us, and she has been dictating it ever since."
Zhou Zichen patted Wang Ziqi and said, "Okay, you need to calm down first."
Zhou Zichen greeted the middle-aged woman again and learned that her name was Zhao Lin, who was the new director of the orphanage photographed above.
Wang Ziqi was not convinced when the middle-aged woman said that she was the director: "What does she know? She has always known how to teach children. The children are so young. What do they know? I don't trust her to run the orphanage."
Zhao Lin is not a fuel-saving lamp: "Children should be disciplined when they make mistakes. They have no father or mother. If you can't establish correct values and morals for them when they get up early, they will be harmed when they enter society and no one will take care of them.
People harm themselves, and I am the one responsible for them."
"Another point is that you are here, at best, just volunteers. I am the staff here, and I am the dean here."
Wang Ziqi's character is such that he wants to take care of you: "No matter what kind of dean you are, you can't be in charge here anyway. If you are in charge, I don't know how the children will be managed."
Zhao Lin responded tit for tat: "I see that you care about these children, otherwise I will kick you out immediately. These children are different from ordinary children. They have to live completely independently starting from the age of eighteen. They have no more time to
To adapt to this society, they have no safe haven. No matter what happens, they can only bear it on their own."
"Don't give excuses for your own arrogance, why should you scold your children when you teach them?"
Zhou Zichen finally understood. In fact, Wang Ziqi was not opposed to a new dean, but this new dean might be stricter and the children would curse when they made mistakes. The children were a little afraid of the new dean.
Although Wang Ziqi was sometimes unreasonable, she showed her best patience and gentlest temper in front of the children in the orphanage.
Zhou Zichen pulled Wang Ziqi: "Okay, Dean Zhao is sent from above, so don't mess with it. You also have things to do. Just help Dean Zhao when you are free."
Wang Ziqi was still unconvinced, but Zhou Zichen glared at her and immediately stopped talking.
Zhou Zichen apologized to Zhao Lin again, found an excuse, and took Wang Ziqi out for a walk.
"You haven't seen how fierce she is, the child is almost crying!" Wang Ziqi complained to Zhou Zichen as soon as she left the orphanage.
Zhou Zichen smiled slightly: "She was sent here from above. Why are you arguing with her? Maybe she is really doing it for the sake of the children? What she said is not completely unreasonable."
"Let's look at some days. If she sincerely wants to manage the orphanage and take care of the children, we can just provide the money. If she is messing around in the orphanage, we can also find a way to get her away, right?
