Li Zheng frowned, he didn't really appreciate this style of dressing.

Seeing Li Zheng's frowning serious expression, Xu Wenqian subconsciously threw away the cigarette in her hand, and stamped out the cigarette butt with her foot at the same time.For some reason, being watched by this sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, she felt like being caught by the teacher for doing bad things in school.

"Excuse me, does Zhong Peng live here?" Li Zheng glanced at the key in the woman's hand and asked politely.

Xu Wenqian froze for a moment, "Ah? Oh. Are you looking for Teacher Zhong?" She looked Li Zheng up and down, then took out the key to open the door, "Come with me."

The old anti-theft door made a "creaking" sound, and the lower part of the anti-theft door had peeled off the paint, revealing dark brown rust.

It seems that the former Xiangjiang University professor is not very happy.

"Teacher Zhong lives on the fifth floor." Xu Wenqian worked in the nightclub, and she developed a pair of piercing eyes. Although the whole body of this young man is not a common luxury brand in shopping malls, the materials and ribbon cutting are definitely not high-end goods.

"Is there anything you can do with Mr. Zhong?" Xu Wenqian asked cautiously.

Li Zheng glanced at her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Mr. Zhong? Are you his student?"

Xu Wenqian immediately shook her head, "How can I, do I look like a student? My younger brother is making up lessons with him. Teacher Zhong's teaching skills are good, but he is a bit stubborn."

Li Zheng glanced over, and saw that the walls in the corridor were mottled and mottled, many walls had fallen off, revealing uneven concrete surfaces, and the handrails of the stairs had been covered with various small advertisements on the ground.

"Here we are." Xu Wenqian stopped, and she stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Mr. Zhong, are you there?" Xu Wenqian shouted at the door.

Heavy footsteps came from inside the door, followed by a "click", the door was opened, and a middle-aged man in his 40s appeared in front of the two of them.

The man was wearing a half-new black coat, most of his hair was gray, and his eyes were rimmed with gold wire on his nose.Seeing Li Zheng beside Xu Wenqian, doubts flashed in his eyes.

"Mr. Zhong, this little brother is looking for you." Xu Wenqian seemed to respect Zhong Peng very much, and she spoke with a little restraint.

Zhong Peng's eyes fell on Li Zheng, and the two looked at each other quietly for a while.

Suddenly, Li Zheng smiled.

"I'm sorry, I may have made a mistake." After speaking, he smiled at Xu Wenqian who was confused, and then turned around and left.

Zhong Peng stood there silently, his hand tightly gripping the doorknob, his thumb was caught by the spring of the door lock but he still didn't know it.

"Teacher Zhong!" Xu Wenqian couldn't help screaming when she saw the blood oozing from Zhong Peng's hand.

Li Zheng's footsteps paused, but he still didn't look back.

Zhong Peng stared closely at Li Zheng's back, he opened his mouth to say something, but he never made a sound.It wasn't until Li Zheng's figure was about to disappear at the stairs that Zhong Peng suddenly rushed out of the house, stood in the corridor and said loudly: "Mr. Li Zheng, what can I do for you?"

Xu Wenqian widened her eyes in surprise, she looked at Zhong Peng and then at Li Zheng.

gentlemen?She and Zhong Peng have been neighbors for so many years, but she seldom hears the word sir from Zhong Peng.

She vaguely guessed that Mr. Zhong should be a very great person in the past, because every Chinese New Year, there would always be a few well-dressed people visiting him, and she noticed that those people respected Mr. Zhong very much. .

The boy in front of him is about the same age as her younger brother, why can Teacher Zhong call him Mr.

Li Zheng turned around slowly, "My laboratory is still short of a few people. I wanted to ask Professor Zhong if he was interested, but now it seems that Professor Zhong is not suitable for this position."

As soon as the door was opened, Li Zheng smelled a strong smell of alcohol.He saw through the crack of the door that seven or eight wine bottles were scattered around on the floor of the living room.

Li Zheng heard that Xu Mingsheng had heard about Zhong Peng's experience, and sympathized with him very much, but a person who is addicted to alcohol is definitely not a good scholar.So Li Zheng turned and left without looking back.

Zhong Peng froze on the spot, panting heavily, as if a flame was about to burst out of his already silent heart.

"Teacher Zhong..." Xu Wenqian said cautiously.

Zhong Peng turned to look at her.

Xu Wenqian was taken aback, she...had never seen such a look in Teacher Zhong's eyes.

As Li Zheng walked down the stairs step by step, the look in Zhong Peng's eyes became less and less bright. He wanted to take a step countless times, but at this moment his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and they were extraordinarily heavy.

Xu Wenqian looked at Zhong Peng, then at the stairs, gritted her teeth, and quickly chased in the direction Li Zheng left.

"Mr. Li Zheng!" She had a feeling that if the young Mr. Xiao left like this, she might never see such a look in Teacher Zhong's eyes again in her life.

It's just that as soon as she ran out of the gate, she saw her blood-stained brother stumbling towards this side.

"Ajian!" The blood on Xu Wenqian's face faded away. She ran forward and wiped the blood on her brother's face with her sleeve.

"Ajian, what happened? Shouldn't you be in class?"

Xu Wenjian shook his head, he dragged Xu Wenqian inside, "Sister, go home first."

At this time, a group of people who looked like gangsters also chased after them, and they surrounded the siblings, "Hey, you stole money from our brother, you are so brave."

Xu Wenqian protected her younger brother behind her, like a lioness being guarded, staring fiercely at everyone.

When Xu Wenjian ran past him with blood all over his face just now, Li Zheng stopped unconsciously. He considered himself a good comrade who talked about four things and five virtues, and he didn't mind helping him if necessary.

Seeing Xu Wenqian protecting that Xu Wenjian, Li Zheng's heart was slightly touched. He seemed to have returned to the day when he was just reborn, and Zhou Sitian also protected him in the same way.She was obviously a weak girl, but she wanted to put on a fierce look to protect her most important person behind her.

Li Zheng secretly reflected on his bad habit of judging people by appearance, then went to a small shop by the street and made a phone call.

"This money was obviously blackmailed by you! I... I just..." Xu Wenjian's voice trembled slightly.

When Xu Wenqian heard it, her heart was half cold. She smiled and said to the gangsters, "I'm sorry, brothers, how much, I will return the money to you right away."

"Why pay it back! Sis, I don't want to study anymore, and I don't want your money!" Xu Wenjian suddenly became agitated, and he tightly held the blood-stained money in his pocket and refused to let go.

"Pa" Xu Wenqian slapped her younger brother on the face. She turned her head and smiled at those bastards again, then took out a wad of money from her bag and wanted to pass it over.

Xu Wenjian's eyes suddenly turned red, and he grabbed the money from Xu Wenqian's hand suddenly, and then quickly ran towards Li Zheng.

"Damn it!" The gangsters were anxious, they dropped the cigarettes in their hands, and quickly chased after them.

At this time, the sound of police sirens came from far away from the street, the punks paused, and they looked at each other.

"Boy, don't stay here if you have the ability, otherwise, if you swallow ours, we will make you spit it out twice!" After finishing speaking, he trotted away.

Seeing the gangsters leave, Xu Wenjian smiled happily on his blood-stained face, but his smile didn't last long, and his sister's anger greeted him.

Xu Wenqian raised her hand high, but when she saw the wound on her younger brother's forehead, she dropped it powerlessly. She took out a handkerchief and pressed the cut on Xu Wenjian's forehead tightly.

"You tell my sister if you don't have money, why are you stealing from that group of people?" Xu Wenqian spoke Cantonese with an accent unique to Haidong Province.

"Your sister is right. Even if the money was extorted by those people, it's still wrong for you to steal it." Li Zheng stood behind the siblings at some point.

He was a little bit complicated in his heart, if...he meant if, if the original Li Zheng was still alive and he hadn't woken up from this body, maybe he and Zhou Sitian were another pair of Xu's siblings.

"What do you know!" Xu Wenjian yelled at Li Zheng, and then looked at Xu Wenqian with tears, "Sister, I don't want you to make this kind of money anymore! I won't go to school, I won't go to school anymore."

Xu Wenqian's eyes were red and she was speechless.

Seeing the siblings hugging each other and crying, Li Zheng tightly pressed his lips together.

Zhong Peng finally came down, he didn't give any hope, so when he saw Li Zheng standing downstairs, his face showed a look of excitement for a while.But he quickly saw the appearance of the Xu brothers and sisters, and he didn't have time to talk to Li Zheng, so Zhong Peng walked over with a sullen face.

Li Zheng hesitated for a moment, said a few words to the police who came, and then left silently.

"Mr. Zhong, Mr. Li Zheng is gone." Xu Wenqian was the first to notice Li Zheng's departure, with an anxious look on her face.

Hearing this, Zhong Peng smiled casually, "It's okay, he's gone, I'll go find him tomorrow!"

This is the first time Xu Wenqian saw such a confident and free and easy smile on Zhong Peng's face.

"Sister, I'm done. Do I have the honor to have a meal with you, a big star?" Li Zheng, who returned to Qingyuan, couldn't help calling Zhou Sitian.

Zhou Sitian on the other side of the phone seemed a little flustered, "Xiaozheng, do you... know?"

Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, "Know what?" His first reaction was Shao Qihua's old fox's face, and Li Zheng's eyes narrowed, "Sister, you are still young, career is the most important thing."

Zhou Sitian who thought Li Zheng knew about Zhao Qiuhua's existence...

"Sister, thank you." Li Zheng said suddenly.

Zhou Sitian's heart warmed up, and all the grievances and hesitation of the day disappeared completely, her eyes were slightly astringent, "What are you talking about, you work day and night every day, you should have a good rest, and Zheng Lingling told me You eat instant noodles every day, and you don’t even eat the meals your aunt prepares for you..."

Zhou Sitian babbled on for a long time, and the strangeness that the two siblings hadn't seen for a long time gradually disappeared with the nagging on the other end of the phone.

That's good.
