save the leaves

Chapter 36 18-2

Xu Shaoqi has always been curious about Ye Mo's age. I am still studying at the age of 28, why did I go there before.Ye Mo said that he used to study architecture as a bachelor, and worked for less than two years, and then went to the police school to study network surveillance. "Then why don't you study criminal investigation or something? How cool is that!"

[I can't speak, and I can't conduct an interrogation.The leader thinks it is better for me to engage in the Internet. 】

"Oh, sorry."

【It doesn't matter.Physical disabilities are nothing, I'm used to it.And let me tell you a little secret, all people have small disabilities, no one is perfect. 】

"Ah—then what disability do I have?"

Ye Mo laughed, [I'm just kidding, I'm actually talking about shortcomings.Everyone has shortcomings, and physical disabilities are just exposed shortcomings, which are a hundred times stronger than inner disabilities.So you don't have to comfort me. 】

"Oh."

Ye Mo sent him a postcard before returning home for the New Year, with him on the front and the words "Be yourself!" written on the back.Xu Shaoqi nestled on the single sofa at home, thinking about this postcard.What do you call yourself?Could it be that Ye Mo's big eyes can see through his dissatisfaction with his brother?He never disclosed this.

"What are you looking at?" Xu Wuzhou, who was sitting on the couch, handed him a cut orange that looked like a petal.

"I won't eat, thank you!"

"Hey," the sister-in-law said, "Shaoqi is becoming more and more polite." She was feeding the second child.The two of them met the "separate" policy, and they had another one when they were 29.One son and one daughter made grandparents very happy.My niece whimpered and learned to sing nursery rhymes from the TV.Xu Shaoqi looked at the happy niece and sighed, and put the postcard into his arms. "I'm going to see my aunt." Actually, I was going to see my mother, but Xu Shaoqi was too lazy to change his words because he was used to crying since he was a child.

Mother Xu is busy preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen.Seeing the second child come in to peel the garlic, Xu's mother held the spatula high and couldn't put it down.She asked softly, "Shaoqi, what's the matter?"

"It's okay, I'm here to help, don't be nervous."

"Oh!" Mother Xu gave the nanny a wink, and the nanny also gave her a wink.The two continued to stir-fry carefully.

"What else should I do besides peeling the garlic?" Xu Shaoqi really wanted to call out to his mother, but he couldn't get out, so he didn't call out.

"No need, go and rest. Studying is hard, go watch TV." Mother Xu's face was full of smiles.Xu Shaoqi looked around and rolled up his sleeves to clean up the dishes in the sink.Xu's mother stood beside him, terrified, as if an alien was here.

Xu Shaoqi watched the water wash the white porcelain bowl, felt the temperature of the warm water flowing through his fingertips, he wondered what Ye Mo was doing now?It should be helping with work at the adoptive father's house.Adopted children do not have the right to sit and play.He lay down and played since he was a child, but his temper was very violent.He thought his parents loved his elder brother more, his mother's cooking was not as good as his aunt's, his tutor's attitude was bad, and it rained during the exam. Every time he failed, he always found a reason other than himself.It is estimated that Ye Mo does not have this kind of treatment.

"Father is back." The sister-in-law reported in a low voice. "Oh, Dad, you don't know that Shaoqi has changed a lot today. He actually helped mother with something." Although the sister-in-law deliberately lowered her voice, it still spread into the kitchen.

"Come on, don't make irresponsible remarks. He will not be happy if he hears it." My brother was talking.Is his temper really that bad?It seems that after failing to go abroad, he never found fault with anyone again!

"This is my compliment! Dad, it's true. Shaoqi has changed his sex."

Dad said something, he couldn't hear clearly.Probably something like "That's good."He didn't bother to praise him.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, as usual, the family sits in front of the TV and waits for the Spring Festival Gala.After Xu Shaoqi called his aunt's family, he felt bored.Cheng Wendan and the others must also be dealing with the elders, and it's not time to send text messages at midnight. The 8-year-old nephew is sitting on the sofa playing mobile games and has no time to talk to others.The little niece is busy around the colorful snacks on the coffee table, and has no time to talk to anyone.Two housewives were discussing about parenting, and two men were discussing the economic situation for next year. Xu Shaoqi listened carefully, but he couldn't understand many terms.I wanted to ask but felt embarrassed, so I said to Xu Wuzhou, "Brother, can I go to your room and borrow some books on economics?"

Director Xu and Xu Wuzhou turned their faces to face him at the same time.Xu Shaoqi felt hot on his face. "What are you looking at? Just borrow a book. If you don't borrow it, forget it."

"Take whatever you want." Xu Wuzhou put his head on the top of the sofa, and smiled like a dog, "You don't need to return it."

Xu Shaoqi stood up impatiently and went upstairs.

The day before the Lantern Festival went to school to report, and the next day was Sunday, Ye Mo said he would come.From the police academy to the city, it takes half an hour by car and two hours by bus.In the evening, I received a call from Cheng Wendan, saying that Boss Fu and his friends invited everyone to go skiing in the eastern suburbs.Xu Shaoqi said he couldn't go, but Cheng Wendan insisted, saying that their Xu family's signboard is the most valuable, and if they don't go, they won't be able to impress them.Xu Shaoqi thought about it and agreed.Put down the phone and write back to Ye Mo saying don't come tomorrow, I have something to do.When it was time to go to bed at twelve o'clock, Ye Mo didn't reply, which was very strange.

Early the next morning, Xu Shaoqi went to the apartment and drove the Hummer away.Skiing in the morning, soaking in hot springs, swimming, and eating wild boar in the villa in the afternoon.Nothing to do at night, we play mahjong together.Once the small businessmen are hooked, they try their best to please them.Before they cooperate, they earn pocket money first, which is really happy. At 2 o'clock, when I returned to the room, Boss Fu's secretary came in, and Xu Shaoqi couldn't hold back.Think about it afterwards, each doing their own 1, there is no conflict, isn't it?Thinking of this, he fell asleep peacefully.Back at the dormitory at noon the next day, I drank too much wine and my head was still not clear.

"Shaoqi, you're back. Here, your cousin brought a cake. Is it your birthday?" the roommate said.

There is a big fruit cake on his table, with a small piece of paper hanging on it: Shaoqi, it's your birthday on Monday, I can't come, sorry.This is my favorite rose garden, try it.Draw an exaggerated villain in the lower right corner, just like him.

Xu Shaoqi frowned slightly, kept the card in his hand, sat down beside the cake, lay his head on the table, stared at the red cherries in a daze.Today is his 22nd birthday, from 20 to 21, and then to 22, the age jumps up uncontrollably, but he always makes a slip of the tongue, saying that he is only 20 years old.Xu Shaoqi stretched out his index finger, picked a piece of butter, and stuffed it into his mouth, it was sweet.What was the man's name last night?It's fantastic to want him to help you get promoted.Ye Mo never asked for anything, instead pampering him like an older brother.elder brother?Oh my god.Xu Wuzhou asked him to have dinner at night, don't forget.Birthdays are taboo for Xu Shaoqi, ever since he knew that his aunt was his mother and his mother was his aunt, he hated birthdays.Don't dare to recognize each other, why bother to live?It is not a child who chooses to come into this world by himself.Forget it, don't think about it, just come when you come, Xu Shaoqi took another piece of cake.Ye Mo is an orphan, so he has no choice.People are having a good time, why can't I?Thinking about my brother always remembering to invite him to dinner for his birthday, it's not bad, even though that guy is damn good in every way. "Hey, ask everyone to eat cake together." Xu Shaoqi cheered up and greeted his roommate.

At 4:4 p.m. on Friday, Xu Shaoqi drove the Hummer to the gate of the police academy, and texted Ye Mo that he had arrived.Ye Mo said wait a minute. At 50:[-], Ye Mo walked to the door with a female student, talking and laughing, standing at the school gate and talking for half a minute before breaking up.After Ye Mo sat in the passenger seat, Xu Shaoqi asked, "Who is she? Don't tell me she's just a classmate."

Ye Mo curled his lips and smiled. [It's just a classmate. 】

Xu Shaoqi snorted dissatisfied.

[It's really just a classmate. 】

"I know that you take all men and women, but Ye Mo, let me tell you, if you step on two boats, I will kill you."

[Shaoqi, don't scare me, okay?I can't, but you——] Ye Mo stopped pressing the button, laughed, and stared at him playfully.

"Hmph, what's wrong with me? If you follow the rules, I will follow the rules. If you don't follow the rules, I won't." After swearing, Xu Shaoqi's throat was itchy, and he could not help but let out a clear cough.

"Okay, let's not talk about spoiling the fun. Let me tell you some good news. Boss Fu has decided to cooperate with us. The registration is 200 million, and each of us will own 10% of the shares. How about it? As long as we make money, we will be empty-handed." Wolves, for nothing." Xu Shaoqi said triumphantly.

【OK.But if you want to provide inside information, will you be targeted by the police? 】

"Unless you inform!" Xu Shaoqi sneered.

[I won't tell the truth, and if there is no evidence, it's useless to tell the truth.I'm worried that if you do this, your family will be hurt? 】

Xu Shaoqi restrained his smile. "I'm not taking information from my dad. I won't implicate him."

【Shaoqi, in fact, you took the biggest risk in this transaction. 】The risk is the biggest, but the profit is shared equally. It's not like he doesn't know it, but why should friends divide it so clearly?Besides, it's free money.But Ye Mo reminded him from a legal point of view that there is no free pie in the world.If something happens—

"No. My house can cover me. I mean in case something happens." Xu Shaoqi twisted his body, trying to find a better sitting posture. "Let's go, tonight is a celebration banquet, no, it's a wish for success." Xu Shaoqi started the engine impatiently, and the Hummer roared forward.

The pre-celebration banquet was held at the newly opened "Wang's Fish Head Hot Pot" restaurant.Guests fish in the large west hall, and then eat the fish they catch in the east hall.Although the unit price of fish is five times that of the vegetable market, this fresh way of eating still seduces countless heroes.This time Boss Fu was the host, and the male secretary stood beside him.Xu Shaoqi took Ye Mo over carelessly to watch them go fishing, he didn't take the one-night stand seriously.Since his boss asked him to come, it is natural that his boss returned the favor, so what does Xu Shaoqi care about him?

"Master Xu, you're here." The secretary greeted him.

"Oh." Xu Shaoqi didn't even look at it, and casually agreed. "Wendan, you only caught one, how can there be enough to eat?" He laughed.

"What's the rush? Fishing is about patience."

"It's already six o'clock. At your speed, when will you have to wait until you can eat?"

"Mr. Xu, sit down." The secretary offered him a chair flatteringly.

"Feng Ya, do you know? Don't keep talking about eating, eating, eating, are you and Huai Yi reincarnated from starvation ghosts in your previous life?" Cheng Wendan taught bitterly.

"Young master Xu, drink tea."

"No need." Xu Shaoqi put aside the flies and walked to Boss Fu. "Boss Fu, your skills are high, it seems that it is better to count on you."

"Hey," Boss Fu happily pointed to the man beside him and introduced, "Nanzhi, this is the second son of the Xu family. This is Boss Xiao."

"Hello Mr. Xu!"

"Hello Boss Xiao!"

"Master Xu, sit here." The fly followed up again.Xu Shaoqi really wanted to rewind back to last Saturday and return the goods directly.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about me. I have hands and feet." Xu Shaoqi's words contained a slight anger, half of which was for the secretary, and half for Boss Fu.

"Xiao Xue, listen to Xu Shao." Boss Fu gave the order, and the innocent fly backed away embarrassingly, Xu Shaoqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At eight o'clock, I finally had dinner.The taste of the fish is really good, Xu Shaoqi is very satisfied, looking at Ye Mo is also very satisfied, thinking about the vision of [-] rounds of the battle, Xu Shaoqi is even more satisfied.

It was ten o'clock when we got on the bus.Xu Shaoqi lit the fire and prepared to go back to the apartment.

【Shaoqi, take me back to the police academy. 】

"Why? It's so late—" Xu Shaoqi was half sober.

[I have something to do. 】

"what's up?"

Ye Mo had a gloomy face and didn't write.

"What's the matter? Go back so late, you can't get in."

[Climb the wall. 】Ye Mo didn't look at him, but stared at the road ahead illuminated by the headlights.

"What's wrong? What did I do wrong?" Xu Shaoqi began to feel guilty.

[You are right, but it is better for us to be friends. 】

"Being friends again? Ruolu keeps talking to and fro, are you annoying?" Although the words were powerful, the words were weak.

Ye Mo suddenly slapped the central armrest between the two with his left hand, and glared aggressively.Xu Shaoqi couldn't help shrinking back, feeling threatened. 【You slept with that secretary, right? 】

"I do not--"

[Don't deny it, don't forget what I study.You are still swearing before eating, and you change it in the blink of an eye.I have long said: Don't be lovers, it's better to be friends.If you don't believe it, you have to try it.How about it?Change of heart in less than two months.I thought you were different, I didn’t expect to be with others—]

"Stop it." Xu Shaoqi cried regretfully.He didn't dare to meet Ye Mo's eyes, but he was unwilling to admit defeat. "If you don't do it, don't do it, no one is forcing you." He slammed on the accelerator, and the car rushed forward.Along the way, he stared at the darkness ahead, Ye Mo stared at the car window, and no one spoke. 40 minutes later, the Hummer stopped at the side gate of the police academy.With a gloomy face, Ye Mo opened the car door, climbed up the wall like a gecko, and jumped into the darkness without looking back.

Xu Shaoqi leaned weakly on the seat.The night enveloped him, enveloped all who rest in peace, and he felt powerless over himself.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and I picked it up to look at it, [Slow down on the road, and report that you are safe when you arrive. 】
