Life is more than just living

At lunch, only three girls ate, and a few of them made salads. They ate happily and chatted happily.

Cheng Qi said: "My husband and his company built a musical fountain in the Shengshi Plaza in front. It opened for the first time on National Day. I heard that it was crowded with people that day. It was the same yesterday. I guess there may be less people today. Let's go and watch the light show in the evening. Right!" Zhao Yuhan said in surprise: "It's expensive to build this, isn't it? It's a lot of money to turn on the photovoltaic once!" Cheng Qi said while eating a salad: "I don't know exactly how much it cost, but I think it can It will drive up surrounding housing prices. As for electricity bills, the government will subsidize them.”

Zhao Yuhan nodded, "No wonder! I thought that housing prices were only expensive in the city center, but I didn't expect that the houses in the city are so expensive." Cheng Qi put down her fork after finishing the meal, took out a tissue and wiped her mouth, "I don't do this either. I understand, but although the city center is prosperous, it is too noisy, and I don’t like it anyway. Besides, the villas are all built in the suburbs or on the mountains. People with cars would rather drive a few minutes longer than be stuck in a traffic jam in the city center. "

Chen Xu listened thoughtfully. I live in the suburbs and learned to drive because there were no buses and transportation was inconvenient. If I hadn't been able to drive, it's hard to say whether I could have escaped the danger three days ago. I wonder how Liang Rong is doing now. A mother who dares to kill for her son is both sad and terrifying. Chen Xu sighed: In just three days, the fate of several people has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The dinner was very sumptuous, and the three girls started eating together. The wound on Chen Xu's hand has scabbed over and he can do some simple work. However, Zhao Yuhan and Cheng Qi resolutely refused to let her do tasks such as washing vegetables and rice, which required getting wet. When Liu Jingsheng came back, he saw three girls busy in the kitchen. Watching Chen Xu happily interacting with his two friends, Liu Jingsheng was very pleased.

Lin Zhiyuan and Chenggong came back from get off work for dinner together. During the meal, everyone was talking about going to see the grand musical fountain together. This is the first musical fountain in Longcheng, and many people from surrounding counties and cities came to watch the fun. Zhao Yuhan teased Cheng Qi, "As the boss's wife, why did you go to see it?" Cheng Qi said arrogantly: "Can't the boss be more reserved?" As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.

The musical fountain started at 07:30 in the evening. Zhao Yuhan asked if he wanted to go early. He said there were too many people and would he like to occupy a favorable terrain? Success shook his head and said no, I had already asked the staff to reserve a seat for us.

It is relatively close to Shengshi Plaza, so a few people decided to walk there. When a group of people came to the gate of the community, Gao Shan hurried over to ask. When he heard that they were going to see the musical fountain, he joined in the fun and said, "I'll go too." When he walked past the gate of the security company, he saw Wang Xue wiping the fountain. Door glass. Gao Shan called her, "Hey, you're off work, what are you doing?" Wang Xue didn't know that Gao Shan was the person in charge here, so she rolled her eyes at him, "What do you think I'm doing? Can't you see the glass is dirty?"

Gao Shan was a little embarrassed when he saw Lin Zhiyuan glance at him. No wonder, the security company is a group of big men and no one pays attention to these small details. Just as a few people were about to walk over, Gao Shan turned around and called Wang Xue, "Wang Xue, there is a musical fountain over at Shengshi Plaza, have you seen it?" Wang Xue shook his head, "I'm not familiar with this area either. , but I heard from my neighbor that there is a fountain here.”

The first few people walked towards Shengshi Plaza. Gao Shan ran up to Wang Xue and said, "Are you joining today?" Wang Xue nodded and said, "Yes, they said they were in need of people, so I just stayed. , I called my dad and asked him to deliver my things on a tricycle." Gao Shan said to her, "Don't you say you're not familiar with this area? Come on, I'll take you to see the musical fountain. , I brought you back when I came back." Wang Xue looked at him, why are you so kind? Gao Shan scratched his head and said, "This is not a good intention. I work in the Shengshi Washington Mansion across the street. In fact, I also work for the security company. We are still colleagues. Hurry up and lock the door. Let's go. You see they’ve come so far.”

Wang Xue locked the door and walked quickly with Gao Shan, chasing Lin Zhiyuan and the others. She asked: "Who are these people?" Gao Shan thought for a moment, "How should I put it: here is my eldest brother, and I think we are friends. Hehe, I think we are friends, but they are all big bosses, so I don’t know if people think I’m a friend.” Wang Xue said disapprovingly: “You really don’t know, you don’t know if I’m a friend or not? It depends on whether he’s interested in you or not! But you’re kind to me. That's funny, I'm determined to be your friend." After saying that, he reached out and patted Gao Shan's shoulder. Gao Shan felt a little awkward. Why does this girl act like a tomboy?

After Chenggong led everyone to the predetermined location, Cheng Qi asked: "Why don't we go to the front?" Chenggong smiled and said: "The position near the front is easy to get splashed with water, so you need to wear a raincoat." Everyone suddenly realized. Although it was not the first day it was open, the venue was still crowded with people. At 7:30, the musical fountain started on time. The beautiful lights, beautiful music and changing water columns coordinated so harmoniously that people were amazed. Liu Jingsheng didn't look at the musical fountain very much. His attention was not there. He kept staring at Chen Xu. Chen Xu seemed a little nervous when he saw so many people just now. Liu Jingsheng stood behind her, holding her shoulders to reassure her, and Chen Xu slowly relaxed. At this moment, seeing Chen Xu completely immersed in the beautiful scenery, Liu Jingsheng felt relieved.

The musical fountain lasted for nearly an hour before it ended, and the audience burst into applause. People dispersed one after another, and when they saw that most of the people had left, a few people slowly walked back. Those who came to see the musical fountain from a distance all came by car, so there were cars everywhere along the way, and some people had to walk hundreds of meters to find their cars. Because of this, Lin Zhiyuan and Chenggong decided to walk.

Gao Shan and Wang Xue still walked behind everyone, keeping a few meters away from everyone. Gao Shan asked Wang Xue what exactly he was doing here? Wang Xue said confidently: "I just came here. Brother Qi arranged for me to familiarize myself with the company's basic business first, and then arrange scientific shifts for everyone. By the way, I haven't asked you what your name is yet?" "My name is Gaoshan." Wang Xue thought for a while, "Why didn't I see your name on the schedule?"

Gao Shan scratched his head and smiled, "I mainly stay as a guard at Shengshi Huafu." Wang Xue thought about it seriously, "That's not right. I also saw the schedule over there. You are not there!" Gao Shan said helplessly: "Why are you so serious about this kid? Let me tell you clearly, this security company belongs to the big brother wearing glasses just now, and I am the temporary person in charge. But I don't want to go to other places, my home is I live in the community opposite, which was given to me by my eldest brother, and I was also afraid that there might be something wrong with the security there, so I kept watching over there."

Wang Xue turned to look at Gaoshan. Is it true? Gao Shan was a little angry, "Who are you looking down on?" He said and quickened his pace. Wang Xue hurriedly took two steps to catch up, "Hey, you are such a big man, why are you so petty! Okay, I believe you, okay? No wonder you asked me to join this security company, it turns out you are the person in charge Now. Let me tell you a favor. I will pay you your salary next month and treat you to something to eat." Gao Shan turned to look at her, "What can I treat you to?" Wang Xue said: Malatang! When Gao Shan heard this, he frowned and said, "Can I change it to another one?" Wang Xue added: Spicy. Gao Shan was completely defeated. What does this girl like to eat?

Successfully picked up the car and took Cheng Qi home. Lin Zhiyuan, Liu Jingsheng, Zhao Yuhan and Chen Xu took the elevator up together. The lights in the elevator were a little dim, and it was clear that it didn't take long. Liu Jingsheng suddenly noticed that Chen Xu was breathing rapidly and sweat was forming on his forehead. Before the elevator door could be fully opened, Chen Xu rushed out impatiently, panting heavily. The three people quickly caught up with her and asked what happened? Chen Xu waved his hand and said after a long time: I feel a little stuffy in the elevator and have difficulty breathing. The other few people looked at me and I looked at you, and they all agreed that she must have remembered what happened when she was trapped in the closet. Liu Jingsheng comforted her a few words, and Chen Xu forced a smile and said, "Brother, I'm fine. Okay, I'm fine." Chen Xu opened the door, and Zhao Yuhan and her went in. Liu Jingsheng went to Lin Zhiyuan's house and said to Lin Zhiyuan: "Xiao Xu has been trying to hide her fear. I also secretly checked online, but I'm not sure if this is post-traumatic stress disorder." Zhao The lady quietly told me that Xiaoxu had been having nightmares last night. I want to take her home and find a doctor to look at her." Lin Zhiyuan quickly nodded and agreed, "Okay, take her there, you have a lot of people at home. , take good care of her, leave this environment, and hope she can recover faster."

When Liu Jingsheng entered the room, Chen Xu and Zhao Yuhan were chatting and joking, and Chen Xu seemed to be fine. Liu Jingsheng walked over, sat on the sofa and said to her: "Xiao Xu, the injury on your face is not obvious now, and the injury on your hand is better. Can I take you home? My parents have been calling me every day these two days. I called, my dad was busy, and my mom had been wanting to come over. I said we would go back soon. Can you leave now? Can you go back with me?" Chen Xu nodded, "Yes, even the Public Security Bureau here has never been there. She came to me to take notes and didn’t ask me any questions.” Liu Jingsheng touched her head and said, “Don’t worry, a case can’t be settled so quickly, let’s talk about it when we come back next time!”

In the evening, Chen Xu quietly said to Zhao Yuhan: "Yuhan, do me a favor, I want to take a shower. I didn't take a shower last night, my mother washed it for me the day before yesterday. I always feel like I have a rancid smell all over my body. .”

Zhao Yuhan pushed her, "You are exaggerating. We ordinary people don't have the conditions to bathe every day. It's autumn now, how can we stink if we don't wash for a day." Chen Xu smiled bitterly, "Really, I feel like the air is filled with the stench of my body. But I didn’t bother you last night. I will go back to see my parents tomorrow. I want to clean up a little." Zhao Yuhan was very quick in doing things and quickly put down the bath. Water, helped Chen Xu wash her hair and bathe, and also specially protected her hands from getting wet.

The next morning, Lin Zhiyuan and Zhao Yuhan sent Liu Jingsheng and Chen Xu to the high-speed rail station. When he was about to enter the station, Lin Zhiyuan suddenly called out to Chen Xu, "Xiao Xu, don't think about anything, just be happy! Your parents and your brother will be there when you get there, and everyone will protect you. Nothing will happen to you. Don't think about it." Forget about those things in the past, they will all be good days in the future." Chen Xu nodded, "Okay, brother, I understand." Zhao Yuhan also said with a smile: "Come back early, we will wait for you!" Chen Xu Hug Zhao Yuhan, and then walk into the waiting hall holding hands with Liu Jingsheng. Zhao Yuhan said to Lin Zhiyuan: "Brother Lin, you are very busy. I can just take the bus back." Lin Zhiyuan said: "Thanks to you for taking care of Chen Xu these two days, it is right for me to see you off. Don't be polite, come here Get in the car! Should I take you home or take you to the flower shop?" Zhao Yuhan said to go to the flower shop.

The two didn't talk much on the way. When they arrived at the flower shop, Zhao Yuhan thanked him. Lin Zhiyuan looked at her and said, "Please take more care of Chen Xu in the future. I feel relieved to have you as her good friend." Zhao Yuhan nodded slightly in embarrassment, "Chen Xu is very nice, and I am very happy to be friends with her. Goodbye, Brother Lin!"
