Chapter 137

I originally thought that I would be able to relax the next day after being exhausted the day before.

As a result, because of the bean sprouts' nest, Lan Heyi didn't sleep well at night, and was so worried that he thought of the nanny in a flash of inspiration in the morning.Cheng Xiaojing watched as he solemnly entrusted all the cat and cat food to the young girl with great concern.Because the entrusted phone call in the morning was made in a hurry,

The little girl looked unnaturally nervous.

Lan He chased after his ass without winking and sent him all the way to the gate of the community.

Cheng Xiaojing suddenly felt that Lan He was a little strange.

Lan He opened the door and came in with a gloomy expression. Cheng Xiaojing heard him on the phone again. After listening carefully, it turned out that he was telling Lan Xiaodou to go to the nanny lady regularly to take care of the emotional problems of Mr. Bean Sprout.

This attitude of serving with sincerity and fear, even his uncle can't compare with himself.

After the two finally arranged everything properly, Cheng Xiaojing asked Lan He curiously.

"I don't think you are usually that close to your cat?"

Lan He didn't bother with him this time, he took the initiative to correct the wrong words in Cheng Xiaojing's words.

"It's our cat."

Cheng Xiaojing smiled and didn't deny it.

Lan He explained to him in a low voice.

"Xiaodou's situation is a bit special. She has no mother since she was a child. Lan Tian has that kind of virtue, and she doesn't stay at home for three days. My second mother's desire to control is too strong.

Xiaodou is not suitable for her.As for me... Although Xiaodou has always lived with me, you also know,

I can't really take care of him when I'm busy.Later, I still found this nanny and proposed to raise a cat to accompany him. "

Cheng Xiaojing nodded suddenly.

"No wonder Xiaodou is so close to you."

Lan He chuckled, then sighed again, and said, "It's impossible for me to take care of him all the time, the most important thing is you."

Cheng Xiaojing wants to laugh every time he hears him perform in front of her, and now he has formed a habit.After laughing, he belatedly remembered that Lan He had always been very repulsive to strangers entering his house.

"The nanny you are looking for is not an ordinary nanny."

Lan He glanced at him and said, "Who do you think I am? I'm a legitimate businessman, not a gangster."

"I think the people around you are talents who have experienced ups and downs." Cheng Xiaojing said.

Lan He laughed out loud and said, "Your brain power is no worse than mine."

Cheng Xiaojing answered the sentence politely.

"Isn't this near Zhu Zhechi?"

Lan He smiled a little, and after a while he stopped laughing and said, "Aunt He introduced it to me, saying that she is the daughter of one of her relatives. I can trust Aunt He, so there will be no problems with her. "

Speaking of Aunt He, Cheng Xiaojing thought of the scene of going to Lan He's house before.

"Oh, it's the one who went out to pick us up that day..." To be honest, Cheng Xiaojing's impression of Aunt He was not as trusting as Lan He said.From his standpoint, he could feel that Aunt He's heart was too blue and too earthy.

He couldn't help thinking about Lan Tian's eyeliner in Lan He's company again, and his brows were raised all of a sudden.

"Why didn't you deal with what I told you yesterday?"

The car has already left the community, and is waiting for a free time to plug into the busy traffic on the opposite side. Most of Lan He's attention is on the road conditions, and what Cheng Xiaojing said, he listened to three minutes.

"Ah? What's the matter?"

Cheng Xiaojing turned his head to look at Lan He's side face, and said seriously: "Lan Tian's matter."

Lan He carefully turned the steering wheel and slid the car into the driveway smoothly. He let out a breath quietly, and said with a sneer, "There is nothing serious about Lan Tian. You know his temper."

The meaning of muddling through in the words is clear, and Cheng Xiaojing just doesn't like this kind of sloppy attitude.

"So, do you know why he did such a thing?" Cheng Xiaojing asked.

Lan He's breathing was disturbed for two minutes, and he begged for mercy in a low voice.

"Can we not talk about this for now? You also know that the situation in my family is not usually complicated."

Cheng Xiaojing's tone unconsciously carried an aggrieved tone.

"Among the things I know, only the Lan family owes you. It makes no sense that you were rejected."

Lan He pursed his lips, as if he wanted to sew the truth into his body, so as not to reveal anything.

"Lan He," Cheng Xiaojing sighed, "you know my temper, if you are not mine, I don't care about it. But you have already bound me, and you also said that the two of us are in a lifelong relationship. What do you think now? Is it appropriate to keep it from me?"

Lan He's slightly lifted shoulders collapsed, and he whispered, "Actually, it's not a particularly important matter. Because of the accident in the research institute, my mother was the main person in charge. Don't look at it, almost no one remembers that now." What happened at that time, this incident almost ruined our family. Fortunately, my second mother came out to help my dad get out of the incident. My family was safe and sound." So, in Lan's family, Ge Xin almost became Lan The sinners of the family, even Lan He's status is inferior.

Cheng Xiaojing said harshly: "What's the big deal? Isn't the gold master Guanling still a man of the hour? Why is your mother a sinner?"

Lan He's logic was extremely clear, and he argued: "That's two different things. Guanling is just the financial owner. It's just like a shareholder of a company. The accident in operation has nothing to do with him. The daily operation of the institute is my mother, although she I'm gone too. But the responsibility belongs to the responsibility, and you always have to be responsible if something goes wrong."

Cheng Xiaojing was silent, if he looked at the situation of Ge Xin and Lan Shiyu without prejudice, it would not be too much for Liao Rongrong to have the status he has today.

But he disagreed with Lan He's consciously inferior approach.

"You..." Cheng Xiaojing's set of preaching seems to be coming up.

Lan He interrupted him first.

"Xiaojing, I know what you mean. Don't worry, I won't let myself suffer. Didn't I want to investigate my mother's affairs?"

Cheng Xiaojing retracted what he was about to spout——Lan He's tone of voice seemed to have an inside story.

"Didn't I tell you last time that my dad objected to my investigation of the case back then? He didn't just lose his temper." Lan He said, "I restricted many things, including my freedom."

Cheng Xiaojing slightly opened his eyes, and couldn't help but say, "Is Lan Shiyu your real father?"

"He is." Lan He said, "But father and son never stand on the same line."

This conclusion is quite logical, and Cheng Xiaojing's anger at the beginning gradually calmed down.

"Forget it." He said, "You should have your own plans, too."

Lan He took out one of his hands, stretched out to hold Cheng Xiaojing, and said, "It's fine for me to bear it alone, you don't have to act with me. When the truth comes out, I won't have any worries."

Cheng Xiaojing sneered and said, "Do you want me to cover you?"

Lan He said cooperatively: "Please cover."

The two arrived at the station smoothly. After Lan He picked up the ticket by himself, he took Cheng Xiaojing in together.

Cheng Xiaojing looked at the overcrowded train station and asked, "Why don't you take a flight?"

"The airport is too far away from our destination. The train can go directly to our county, so it is convenient for Gong Bo to pick us up." Lan He explained patiently.

Cheng Xiaojing used to fly back and forth on business trips, rarely encountered such a slow journey, he grabbed Lan He's hand and looked at the ticket he was holding in his palm, complaining dissatisfiedly.

"What wilderness doesn't even have an airport?"

What catches the eye are two characters with uncomplicated strokes—Shuige

Cheng Xiaojing stared at these two words and tried hard to recall for a long time, but the strangeness they brought to him did not fade away at all.He suddenly recalled that in his two dreams about the past, the place name never appeared.

He couldn't help but raised his head and asked Lan He.

"...Has the horn corner changed its name?"

Lan He shook his head.

"No. That's the name, what's the matter?"

Cheng Xiaojing asked hesitantly.

"What's the name of our alma mater?"

"Shuige No. [-] Middle School."

"..." Cheng Xiaojing murmured in a low voice: "My memory is probably really hopeless."

Seeing his confused expression, Lan He asked, "Can't you remember?"

Cheng Xiaojing raised his head and sighed heavily.

Lan Heyi put his arms around his neck, pulled him closer, and said, "It's just a few place names in the wilderness, it's not important. We'll find out when we get there."

Although there were many people at the station, there were very few people on the train that Cheng Xiaojing and the others took.Cheng Xiaojing looked around the empty carriage with only four or five people, and he had a deep understanding of what is called a train in the wilderness.

Shuige Town is located in the authentic south, not one or two points away from Qilan, a northern city.

Cheng Xiaojing and Lan He squeezed together in the lower bunk for a day and a night, and they got out of the car at noon of the third day with back pain.

As soon as he got out of the station, Cheng Xiaojing's first words were.

"Lan He, remember it clearly for me. In the future, no matter how far the airport is from the destination, I will fly for me!"

Lan He rubbed his stiff waist through the clothes, and kept apologizing.

After exiting the station, Lan He touched his mobile phone and lowered his head to make a call. An old man over sixty years old walked up to him quickly.

"Hey, master?"

Lan He suddenly raised his head, and saw the old man standing in front of him, who was a head shorter than him, and he didn't speak for a long time.It was only then that he recalled that they hadn't been back for more than ten years.

Gong Bo kept his original promise and stayed in this remote mountain and remote place all the time, but he never waited for them to come back to visit him.

"Uncle Gong?" Lan He finally recovered his voice after a while. He sniffed and said, "Why did you come by yourself? Didn't you agree to find someone to pick us up?"

As soon as Gong Bo heard Lan He's voice, he immediately laughed.The marks carved on his face by ten years piled up all at once.

"The young people at home don't recognize you. I'm afraid they won't do things reliably, and they will cause you trouble if they miss out."

Lan He pinched the phone in his hand, but stopped talking.

Cheng Xiaojing was next to him, and he still had an obedient attitude to meet guests.

"Uncle Gong, long time no see."

The moment Gong Bo saw his face, he was in a daze, and a complex look flashed across his face.Cheng Xiaojing thinks that he probably doesn't remember himself - even Lan He's appearance is not sure, let alone an outsider like himself.

"I remember you," Gong Bo hesitated for a moment, and said, "Master Cheng's son, what is his name, Jing..."

Cheng Xiaojing's heart welled up with mixed feelings.

"Cheng Xiaojing." He looked at Uncle Gong with a smile, and remembered that many years ago at the school gate, the tall housekeeper held a black umbrella and asked himself: "Are you Cheng Xiaojing? Your parents..."

"That's right, that's right, Cheng Xiaojing." His whole body was full of emotion for the unforgiving years, and he muttered, "I've grown up, and I've grown better than when I was a child. Sure enough, I still have to leave, so that I can live a comfortable life."

Lan He reached out and grabbed the old man's arm and said, "There are too many people here, let's go back first."

"Hey, good."

The driver was the young man Gong Bo mentioned.The closedness of the mountain village can't suppress the young people who want to fly to the sky. It seems that Lan He and Cheng Xiaojing are both introverted people, and they worked hard to blow themselves into the sky along the way.

Lan He and Chen Yifan usually run trains all over the world, but compared with this young man, they are so mediocre that they can't stand it.

The young man was blowing hype, and Gong Bo was so happy that he didn't close his mouth all the way.

Cheng Xiaojing has not said a word, but occasionally when the young man made a joke on his own head, he responded with a few symbolic words.

But Gong Bo's reaction, he took it to heart.

"Oh, Xiaojing is a lawyer. What is the name of the one who took you away back then? He has such a temper!" Gong Bo said: "I was not at ease at the time, but now it seems that that person is right."

Cheng Xiaojing didn't feel the sweetness when he was in front of Guan Pengcheng, but when Gong Bo said that, it seemed to be magnified countless times.
