Comrade Xu was very tired after not sleeping all night.
After learning the reason why his wife Wei Chunlan did not return home all night, he no longer worried about Wei Chunlan.
He went back upstairs, took a shower, silenced his cell phone, and went to bed.
Even if he wants to go to Xia Yun's place, he has to wait until he regains his energy.
…
When he woke up, it was already past one in the afternoon.
Get up, wash up, and go downstairs.
Mother Ge Xiaozhu, who was sitting in the living room, sighed when she saw Comrade Xu coming downstairs and pointed to the dining table.
"I went upstairs to see you during lunch today. I originally wanted to ask you to come downstairs for dinner. Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, I didn't wake you up. I left some food on the table for you. Do you want me to
Let me warm it up for you?"
"Need not!"
The weather in September is hot, so there is nothing wrong with eating cold meals and cold dishes.
Comrade Xu walked to the dining table, filled a bowl of leftover rice, sat down and started eating.
His mother, Ge Xiaozhu, came over and sat down next to him. Looking at Comrade Xu who was lowering his head to eat, Ge Xiaozhu sighed again, "I guess you are about to wake up, so these meals are not in the refrigerator. Lan Lan hasn't come back yet.
, the phone still can’t get through. I heard that you called back all the people you sent out, and the police also called and said to stop looking. Xiaodao, what do you think? Your wife is gone, and you just don’t look for it.
Already?"
Comrade Xu, who lowered his head to eat, did not raise his head or eyes, and said in a calm tone, "Mom, it's okay, she will come back on her own."
Ge Xiaozhu frowned, "Do you really believe that she will come back on her own? What if something happens to her? Just like your father disappeared suddenly..."
Xu Tongdao: "..."
Unexpectedly, this incident reminded my mother of her father's disappearance.
But Xu Tongdao didn't want to explain the specific reason to his mother.
So, after a few seconds of silence, he nodded, "Don't worry! I'll go find her when I'm full. Where are An An and Lele?"
Ge Xiaozhu: "Sent to school. An'an has gone to elementary school and Lele has gone to kindergarten. Are you still awake?"
Comrade Xu laughed at himself, said nothing more, and ate quickly.
After the meal, he took Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi to the group headquarters for work.
I didn't really look for Wei Chunlan.
It's not that he doesn't want to look for it, but that so many people searched the city last night but couldn't find Wei Chunlan's whereabouts. Now what are the chances that he can find her alone?
What he just said was to deal with his mother.
Wei Chunlan didn't return home all night, and Xia Yun gave birth to a child that might be his, Xu's. Both of these things weighed heavily on his mind, leaving him uninterested in answering his mother's every question patiently.
I had to deal with it casually.
In a blink of an eye, the time came to evening.
The sun sets in the west.
Office of the President of Ximen Group Headquarters.
Comrade Xu put down the pen in his hand, stood up and walked to the window, squinting at the tall buildings under the sunset, with confused thoughts in his mind.
This afternoon, he did not receive any news that Wei Chunlan had returned home. Obviously Wei Chunlan had not returned home yet.
As for the company, he also asked Zheng Meng to find out - Wei Chunlan didn't come to the company to work today.
Where is she?
Tongdao Xu couldn't think of the answer.
As soon as his thoughts changed, he thought of Xia Yun and Xia Yun's children again.
According to Wang Xiaomin's report to him this morning - Xia Yun's child was studying at Tianyun Primary School. School should be almost over by this time, and Xia Yun should be picking up her child from school.
It seems that his wife Wei Chunlan had previously registered her daughter, but suddenly changed her mind and arranged for her daughter to attend Tianyun No. 2 Primary School. This was because when Tianyun Primary School was registering her daughter, she happened to see Xia Yun and her child also enrolling in Tianyun Primary School.
.
That's why Wei Chunlan changed her mind and arranged for her daughter to go to Tianyun No. 2 Primary School.
Why is it because there are too many vendors selling toys and snacks in front of Tianyun Primary School... Now it seems they are all excuses.
Comrade Xu stood by the window for a long time, then turned away from the window and came out of the office with his mobile phone and handbag.
Tong Wen, the secretary working outside, was a little surprised that Xu Tongdao got off work so early today. She subconsciously got up and said, "Boss, are you going back early today?"
Comrade Xu agreed.
Coming out of Tong Wen's office area, Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi quickly stood up and followed.
A few minutes later.
The black Bentley drove out of the underground garage downstairs. Instead of taking the road back to Zhusi Garden every day, it turned to another road.
The driver was still Tan Shuangxi.
Sun Aizi sat in the passenger seat, and Zheng Meng sat in the back seat with Xu Tongdao.
Tongdao Xu closed his eyes and leaned on the back of his chair, his face expressionless.
More than half an hour later.
The car stopped.
Tan Shuangxi: "Boss, we're here."
Only then did Xu Tongdao open his eyes.
Sun Aizi, who was in the passenger seat, turned around and asked, "Boss, should we get off the car now?"
Comrade Xu agreed.
Sun Aizi and Zheng Meng immediately got out of the car. After getting off the car, they quickly came to Xu Tongdao and helped open the car door, guarding the left and right sides of the car door.
Tongdao Xu got out of the car and scanned his surroundings.
This is a very old community. As far as you can see, there are small buildings with five or six stories high. The walls are all stained, and the anti-theft windows on most of the windows are rusty. The greening in the community is quite good.
The camphor branches are lush and the bushes are lush.
Too!
In old communities, flowers, plants and trees are generally very lush.
"Which building is Building 7?"
Tongdao Xu asked while looking at the environment of the community.
Sun Aizi pointed to the building on the left front, "Boss! That's the building."
Comrade Xu looked in the direction of his finger and walked over there without saying anything.
Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi quickly followed behind.
Unit 303, Building 7, Longhua Community.
This is the address Wang Xiaomin told Comrade Xu this morning, where Xia Yun currently lives.
Xu Tongdao walked into the door of Unit 2 of Building 7. There was no elevator in this old building, so he could only take the stairs step by step to the third floor.
Of course, climbing to the third floor is not a burden to him.
When I came to the door of Room 303, I looked at the anti-theft door with mottled silver paint and rust everywhere. This anti-theft door was an old-fashioned one, with an iron sheet on the lower half and a fence on the upper half.
Comrade Xu glanced at Sun Aizi beside him, and Sun Aizi quickly stepped forward and rang the doorbell.
"Who is it? Here you go, wait a minute!"
Xia Yun's voice came from inside the door.
Although I haven't seen her for seven or eight years, her voice is still very familiar to Mr. Xu.
After a while, the wooden door inside the security door opened. Xia Yun, who was wearing a navy blue one-step skirt and a white women's short-sleeved shirt, raised her head and met Comrade Xu outside the security door.
At that moment, the air seemed to suddenly become quiet.
Inside and outside the door, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Comrade Xu and Xia Yun, who had slightly narrowed eyes, looked at each other across the rusty security door. You looked at me and I looked at you.
Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi subconsciously lowered their voices and held their breath.
After not seeing each other for seven or eight years, Xu Tongdao found that Xia Yun had not changed much, she was still so beautiful, too! She was now about thirty years old, the age of a charming young woman.
Compared with before, she is only a little plump or two.
"You, why are you here?"
Xia Yun, who was inside the security door, finally spoke, with a complicated expression and a complicated tone.
