Chapter 37 Where have you been?

As soon as Zhou Shangli arrived at the store, Li Tao explained his absence for the past two days, and sued Gu Wenwen for absenteeism. Zhou Shangli didn't say anything after listening. If Gu Wenwen resigns now, he can't say anything.

"Boss, she didn't come again today." Li Tao was very dissatisfied with Gu Wenwen's absence from work, and walked to Zhou Shangli to remind her again while she was free.

Zhou Shangli was calling Xiao Qiuyuan, but he only nodded his head to show that he knew, now he was more concerned about the situation of Xiao Qiuyuan and Zu Yu.

Zu Yu answered the call. He had already picked up the materials and was rushing to C University to find Chen Liandong. After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shangli thought about it and called Gu Wenwen.

"Boss." Gu Wenwen's voice sounded hazy, as if she was still sleeping.

Zhou Shangli was relieved to hear her familiar address, "Still sleeping? Are you coming to the store today?"

After Gu Wenwen yelled "Boss", she became sober and said after a pause, "I have a cold and I have a headache. I'm sorry, boss, can I ask for a day off?"

Zhou Shangli agreed, and asked with concern, "Have you taken your medicine?"

"Eat, I will go to work tomorrow."

Zhou Shangli asked her to rest for a few more days, and was about to hang up the phone, when a man's voice came from the other end, Zhou Shangli asked reflexively, "Do you have any friends?"

Gu Wenwen chuckled, hummed ambiguously, and hung up the phone. Zhou Shangli scratched his eyebrows, a little worried. He couldn't care about Gu Wenwen's affairs. If Gu Wenwen ruined herself at will because of him, he was responsible. Thinking of this Zhou Shangli called out to Li Tao, who was bored playing with his mobile phone, and said, "Go to Gu Wenwen's house to see her later. She is sick. If it is serious, send her to the hospital."

Although Li Tao was dissatisfied with Gu Wenwen's absence from work, when she heard that Gu Wenwen was sick, she was worried and agreed immediately.

Zu Yu came out of Chen Liandong's office with a relaxed expression on her face, the issue had been settled, and she was going to go home to live without disturbing the lives of Zhou Shangli and Xiao Qiuyuan.

Xiao Qiuyuan wasn't in the car, nor was it next to the car. Zu Yu searched around, but couldn't find anyone. She took out her mobile phone to make a call, and found that Xiao Qiuyuan left the phone in the car. Her first reaction was that it was broken. Zhou Yu Shangli met a liar.

"Sister Yu? How's it going?" Zhou Shangli received a call from Zu Yu and asked her about the result of the negotiation.

"Very good." Zu Yu asked, "Did Qiu Yuan see you?"

"No, isn't he with you?"

Zu Yu sighed, and said anxiously: "Shangli, I have to tell you something, I heard Qiu Yuan answer the phone in the middle of the night last night, it seems to be about an emotional matter, now he is not here, and the phone is not taken , I suspect that he went to see that person, you have to be mentally prepared."

Zhou Shangli's first reaction was that Ah Xun came back, he felt very heavy, he was not unconfident, he knew how much Ah Xun had influenced Xiao Qiuyuan, hung up the phone, he couldn't sit still, and hurriedly took a taxi to University C .

The first thing Zhou Shangli said when he saw Zu Yu was, "When did you leave?"

"I don't know." Seeing his flustered face, Zu Yu knew it was useless to comfort him, and said, "I felt something was wrong with him this morning. It kept ringing, but he didn't answer it, and when we got here, he said he was waiting for me in the car, and I talked with Professor Chen for about an hour, and he was gone when we got out."

Zhou Shangli was not panicked, but anxious, he and Zu Yu went back to Xiao Qiuyuan's home, but he was not at home.

Zu Yu said: "He never came back, and nothing in the house was touched."

Zhou Shangli stood with his hips akimbo in the middle of the living room, thought for a while, and rushed out again. Zu Yu didn't call him to stop him, and couldn't catch up, so he had to stay at home.

There was no one in the store, no one at the barbecue shop, no one by the river, no one could be found anywhere Zhou Shangli could think of where Xiao Qiuyuan would go, the more he couldn't find anyone, the more disturbed he was, if Xiao Qiuyuan was a normal person , he would be angry, but Xiao Qiuyuan is a patient, he doesn't even care about Xiao Qiuyuan leaving him, as long as Xiao Qiuyuan is fine.

Sitting on the subway in desperation, he didn't know where to find Xiao Qiuyuan. He was not familiar with this city, so if he wanted to find someone who was familiar with the city in an unfamiliar city, he would definitely be looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Zhou Shangli?"

Zhou Shangli looked up, and there was a handsome man in formal attire and glasses standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Zhuang Xiang?" Zhou Shangli looked at Zhuang Xiang up and down, and smiled, "Why are you dressed like this?"

"The company requires it." Zhuang Xiang made a cute face, "I'm still not used to it."

"Have you graduated?" Zhou Shangli asked.

Zhuang Xiang squeezed Zhou Shangli to sit down, apologized to the dissatisfied person next to him, put Zhou Shangli's arm and said with a smile: "Intern, why do you look like you have nothing to love? The store closed down? "

"You hope I'll be well." Zhou Shangli smiled wryly, shaking his head: "It's okay, I'm a little tired."

Zhuang Xiang obviously didn't believe it, and asked gossipingly, "About feelings?"

Zhou Shangli was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Are you familiar with this city?"

"Native born and bred."

"Let's go." Zhou Shangli pulled Zhuang Xiang off the subway, Zhuang Xiang didn't ask any more questions, and waited for his orders.

Zhou Shangli looked blankly at the various exits of the subway station, smiled wryly, and patted Zhuang Xiang on the shoulder: "I'm sorry brother, I dragged you out of the car, you go back."

"You want to find someone?" Zhuang Xiang asked.

Zhou Shangli shook his head weakly, "I won't look for it anymore, let's go."

Zhuang Xiang followed, "Who are you looking for?"

Zhou Shangli couldn't speak, Zhuang Xiang followed him out of the subway station, it seemed that he had to help him.

"Do you still remember the person who was with me at the comic exhibition last time?" Zhou Shangli finally spoke.

Zhuang Xiang thought for a while, then nodded, Zhou Shangli said, "Look for him."

Zhuang Xiang didn't ask the reason, but only asked about the scope of Xiao Qiuyuan's frequent activities, and then made a search route. In fact, both of them knew that they couldn't find people like this. Zhuang Xiang was just pretending to give Zhou Shangli hope, Zhou Shangli needed this kind of hope to comfort himself.

The two sat down on the roadside bench wearily, Zhuang Xiang handed Zhou Shangli the water in his hand, looked at the gradually darkening sky, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Please eat, let's go." Zhou Shangli drank water, got up, and brought Zhuang Xiang to Xiao Qiuyuan's shop.

"Brother Zhou, what are you eating?" Li Wei greeted Zhou Shangli enthusiastically when he saw Zhou Shangli.

Zhou Shangli let him decide, and asked expectantly, "Has your boss been to the store today?"

"No." Li Wei smiled immediately: "Did you two quarrel?"

Zhou Shangli nodded: "I scolded him and ran away."

Li Wei chuckled, "It's okay, he will go back by himself."

When Li Wei walked away, Zhuang Xiang asked: "The owner of this store is the one who went to the manga show with you last time? Did you get rid of him?"

"Fixed?" Zhou Shangli smiled wryly: "He's the one who got me done."

Zhuang Xiang clicked his tongue, "It's the fifth time I smiled wryly, it seems that he is the one who got you, it doesn't matter if you run away with scolding."

Zhou Shangli nodded: "OK."

Before taking a few bites of the food, Xiao Qiuyuan's phone call came, Zhou Shangli spat out the food in his mouth, and hurriedly asked, "Where are you?"

"At home, I'm sorry to make you worry." Xiao Qiuyuan's voice sounded exhausted, "I cooked, come back to eat?"

"Back, don't eat alone, I'll be right back." Regardless of Zhuang Xiang's protests, Zhou Shangli left as soon as he said he would.

Seeing Li Wei looking at him, Zhuang Xiang immediately said, "Brother Zhou bought me something to eat."

Li Wei showed a standard smile for hospitality: "I know, you can eat at ease."

Zu Yu looked at Zhou Shangli who was almost slamming into the door, pouted towards the kitchen, Zhou Shangli walked towards the kitchen without stopping, Xiao Qiuyuan was skillfully stirring the dishes in the pan.

Zhou Shangli walked over, hugged him from behind, buried his face on his back, took a deep breath, and asked in a low voice, "Where have you been?"

"See my sister." Xiao Qiuyuan said with a smile, "What? Are you afraid that I will run away?"

"Don't do this again, I'm afraid."

Xiao Qiuyuan turned off the fire, held Zhou Shangli's hand, and asked, "What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid your ex-boyfriend will come back to look for you and snatch you away." Zhou Shangli rubbed Xiao Qiuyuan's back and said, "I can't snatch him away."

"He won't come back to look for me, never will." Xiao Qiuyuan turned around and put his arms around Zhou Shangli, "I will see my sister in the future and bring you with me."

Zhou Shangli said with a smile, "Okay."

Zu Yu stood at the door with her bag in her hand, and waited for the two of them to get tired before saying, "I'm leaving."

The two let go, and Zhou Shangli asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go home." Zu Yu sighed: "I won't be here to watch you show your affection."

Zhou Shangli said, "I'll send you off after the meal."

Zu Yu made a cut, changed his shoes, opened the door, and waved, "Let's go, you two, let's have a good chat."

The door closed, Zhou Shangli leaned back against Xiao Qiuyuan, and said vaguely: "She asked us to have a good chat."

Xiao Qiuyuan pushed him, "Eat."

"I think chatting is important." Zhou Shangli tore off the apron tied around Xiao Qiuyuan's waist, and said softly against him, "Can we chat first, Boss Xiao?"

"I suggest eating first, Boss Zhou." Xiao Qiuyuan stuffed the apron into Zhou Shangli's arms, and went out with the food.

Zhou Shangli came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and saw Xiao Qiuyuan standing facing the cabinet embedded in the wall. The cabinet was about two meters high and there was nothing on the top shelf. Still nothing is placed, in the diamond-shaped frame in the middle, there are some miscellaneous things scattered here and there, puppets, photo frames, red wine, and even handmade things. Zhou Shangli had a rough look at it before, and there is no aesthetic feeling. See Xiao Qiuyuan Station There, also leaned over.

"Is there a monster?" Zhou Shangli asked with a smile.

Xiao Qiuyuan smiled, turned around and pinched Zhou Shangli's chin and kissed him on the lips, "Brush your teeth."

Zhou Shangli patted his butt with his backhand, glanced at the cabinet, and saw several bottles of medicine on the leftmost grid, which was neither high nor low. He took them down and looked at them. They were all Xiao Qiuyuan's usual food. It was put in the draw before, I don't know when Xiao Qiuyuan put it here.

Perhaps for the convenience of taking it, Zhou Shangli was about to put it back, but felt a bit heavy in his hand, he shook the medicine bottle, the sound was muffled, he frowned, unscrewed the cap, and found that the medicine bottle was almost full.

Xiao Qiuyuan's chin was covered with shaving cream, with a white circle, like an old man with a white beard, brushing his teeth with a toothbrush, Zhou Shangli also squeezed the toothpaste, and looked at Xiao Qiuyuan while brushing his teeth.

Xiao Qiuyuan smiled and said, "What are you doing?"

Zhou Shangli turned his back to the sink and faced Xiao Qiuyuan, squeezing past little by little, Xiao Qiuyuan stepped aside little by little, and couldn't help laughing, "What the hell are you going to do?"

"Look at the handsome guy." Zhou Shangli also smiled, "I think you are handsome even when you are old. Hey, it seems that my heart is never pure."

Xiao Qiuyuan took the shaving cream, squeezed it into his hand, and said to Zhou Shangli: "Come on, you also have a little bit, who is handsome when you are older."

"You must be the handsome one." Zhou Shangli dodged and was held back by Xiao Qiuyuan, the two of them tugged, and finally simply held their toothbrushes in their mouths, fighting like two children.

The faces of the two were covered with foam, and their bodies were also covered with water stains. Zhou Shangli pressed Xiao Qiuyuan against the wall, panting and said with a smile: "Boss Xiao is so hypocritical, why is he so weak today."

Xiao Qiuyuan really felt weak, let Zhou Shangli be imprisoned, took off the toothbrush from his mouth, took off the toothbrush from Zhou Shangli's mouth, and just looked at Zhou Shangli like that.

Zhou Shangli touched his face with one hand, carefully looked at his eyebrows, and asked softly, "Why don't you take medicine?"

Xiao Qiuyuan said: "It's a big taboo for a boss to forget things after eating."

"Don't you have a proprietress?" Zhou Shangli said, "Look down on people?"

Xiao Qiuyuan smiled lightly and said, "I'll eat it in a while."

Zhou Shangli gently wiped away the toothpaste foam from the corner of his mouth, and leaned over to kiss him. The kiss was fierce, but also very rational. After the long kiss was over, they each continued to brush their teeth and wash their faces.

"There is a shoot in the store today, will you go with me?" Zhou Shangli was brushing his hair, standing at the door of the bedroom, and asked Xiao Qiuyuan who was awake in bed.

Xiao Qiuyuan didn't look very well, he rubbed his face, sat up, "Go."

Zhou Shangli watched him get dressed, and asked, "Have breakfast at home or go out?"

"Do you want to eat at home?" Xiao Qiuyuan asked while putting on his pants: "If you want to eat at home, I will make it right away. What do you want to eat?"

Zhou Shangli looked at Xiao Qiuyuan without speaking for a while, Xiao Qiuyuan looked up at him, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Shangli rubbed the handkerchief in his hand, and said solemnly, "Tell me you're fine."

Xiao Qiuyuan came over and kissed him on the cheek, and patted his shoulder, "I'll tell you if I have something to do?"

Zhou Shangli smiled and urged him: "Go wash up, let's go out to have breakfast and porridge."

"Okay." Xiao Qiuyuan said as he entered the bathroom.
