Huang Mao personally received Toad and his master, and took Bei Xiaowu to explain.

Ha|Toad used to only know that Bei Xiaowu was the son of the director of the auto repair factory, but he never put this boy and the car together, so that he was a little surprised when he heard that Bei Xiaowu was going to learn auto repair. After learning his skills, I realized that this kid really knows about cars.

It is not the kind of understanding that stays at the superficial level, but a professional understanding that can explain the pros and cons of every small component to you.

Ha|Toad's master is also a person who knows cars very well, and combined with Bei Xiaowu's introduction, he ordered an off-road vehicle on the spot.

Ha|Toad originally wanted to bring someone to see the car, but I didn't expect to be very happy to increase the performance of Huangmao.

Master and Huang Mao signed the contract inside, and Bei Xiaowu waited outside with Toad.

Perhaps it was because the angle he was standing at this moment was very close to the angle when Ha|Toad first came into the store, and Cao Xianghu's subtle expression changes when he saw Ha|Toad kept appearing in Bei Xiaowu's mind.

Ha|Toad's appearance is quite special, otherwise he would not be given such a nickname, but it is not to the extent that ordinary people are surprised when they see it, especially Cao Xianghu's character that can be held firmly at first sight.So, he must have seen Toad, and even the two had met before.

Especially judging from the back view of Cao Xianghu hastily leaving without saying goodbye to A Miao after they passed by, it can't be said that there is any festival.

Bei Xiaowu was thinking wildly when Toad reached out and patted him.

"Xiao Wu," Ha|Toad said, with a vague tone, "What is that man doing here this morning?"

Sure enough, even Toad himself noticed something strange.

"The one talking to Brother Huang Mao?" Bei Xiaowu wanted to be sure.

"Well, oh, you said that you are here for an interview," Toad frowned slightly thoughtfully, "but I seem to have seen him somewhere."

"Meet him?" Bei Xiaowu tried to help Ha|Toad remember, "I heard that he also learned auto repair before. Could it be in a shop or a place that sells accessories?"

"Well..." Toad pursed his mouth into a fat piece, and shook his head slightly, "Anyway, it looks familiar."

Bei Xiaowu felt a little disappointed when he didn't get a clear answer, but he felt familiar in the vast sea of ​​people. This kind of situation will always happen, but Bei Xiaowu felt uncomfortable, and it could even be said to be an ominous premonition .

At noon, Jiang Lai and Sun Jing went to the cafeteria for dinner, and just after ordering food, they saw Bai Xue and Xu Feifei walking towards the window with the dishes.

"Come on, go over and grab a seat." Sun Jing bumped into Jiang Lai's arm.

At noon, when there are many people, it is not easy to find a seat.

Jiang Lai went with Sun Jing listlessly, but Bai Xue and Xu Feifei looked in a good mood when they saw them.

"What's the matter, so happy?" Sun Jing put down the plate and asked with a smile.

Xu Feifei grinned, "Isn't it because I'm happy to hear that Liu Zhi is going to hold an art exhibition over there."

"Liu Zhi?" Sun Jing and Jiang Lai hadn't heard of this name for a long time.

"You don't know yet?" Xu Feifei smiled and explained, "Liu Zhi went to take the IELTS test to apply for a school in Australia after taking a break from school here last year. He has been learning languages ​​and creating creations for the first half of the year. It should be re-reading the second year of high school over there. But it doesn’t matter, the important thing is that he has been dormant for half a year, and there is an art dealer who wants to help him hold an art exhibition!”

Jiang Lai knows that in Western society, the art industry has its own system, and there are many discerning Bole who are looking for and cultivating potential newcomers, helping them curate and promote.Unexpectedly, Liu Zhi would have such an opportunity so soon.

"That's great, congratulations to him." Jiang Lai smiled, fiddled with the food on the dinner plate.

"Jiang Lai, don't worry about those things in the past. Liu Zhi said that he was too narrow-minded at that time, so I'm sorry." Bai Xue apologized for Liu Zhi, looking very confident.

Jiang Lai smiled, "I never took it to heart, it wasn't you who mentioned it, I almost forgot about it."

After going through so much this year, Jiang Lai actually kind of missed the time when Liu Zhi was around, and secretly talked about it, which was barely an adjustment to his life.

Bai Xue saw that Jiang Lai didn't really care about the previous things, so she smiled and talked about another thing, "Yesterday, when Liu Zhi and I made a video call, he suddenly mentioned that there was a robbery in our alley last year. Do you guys still remember?"

"Oh," Sun Jing nodded, "I remember, I said I was going to grab the senior three test papers, right? Now that I'm in the third year of high school, there are so many papers that I'm going to die. I really hope they come to grab them."

"Ha, that's not what I want to talk about," Bai Xue smiled, "Liu Zhi told me yesterday that he didn't deliberately stand in the alley waiting for me on his birthday to scare us, it was because he saw his father when he came home that night." Because he already knew about his parents’ divorce at that time, and his father’s car hadn’t appeared in their community for a long time, so he was very curious and took a taxi to follow him.”

"What is he doing with his father?"

"I want to know where his dad lives now. Ever since he saw his dad with other women in the mall, he has been particularly stimulated..."

Jiang Lai didn't care much about the trivial matters of these parents, and lowered his head to eat.

"What does this have to do with him being in the alley?" Xu Feifei asked.

"Then he followed, and the driver got lost for some reason. He got out of the car and took a look, only to find that he had arrived at Gujian Street. He remembered that there was a robbery on Gujian Street, so he came to our alley to wait." Bai Xue finished. , his voice softened again, "He said that it has been almost a year, and he always thinks about that incident, and always feels that his behavior of waiting in the alley in the middle of the night is not good and a bit wretched, so he also wants to apologize to everyone."

Jiang Lai took the last bite of rice from the plate and put down his chopsticks, "It seems that Liu Zhizhen is different from before."

"Yes," Bai Xue nodded, "It may be that the relationship between his parents really put him under too much pressure at that time, so he thought about something."

"What kind of parental relationship? Hmph," Xu Feifei, who was sitting by the side, curled her lips in disapproval, "Didn't you say that his father likes to gamble? There's nothing wrong with such a man leaving early. If I were Liu Zhi's mother, I wouldn't He won't help his father act and show a good father."

Gambling again?Why do so many people like to gamble in this world?

Jiang Lai's pupils shrank suddenly, and his index finger tapped the edge of the table impatiently, "You think Liu Zhi's father is also a good gambler?"

"Yeah, his dad used to be a big project manager. He had a successful career. I heard it was because he went out to gamble with a supplier and was arrested. When he came back, he made a mess and lost his position. So Nan He After the gymnasium was built, it was sent to do logistics." Xu Feifei spoke bluntly, and poured out all the bamboo tubes like beans.

"Feifei, stop talking." Bai Xue lowered her head in embarrassment, probably because she didn't want Liu Zhi to have a worse impression in others' minds.

In the evening, Bei Xiaowu was reading in his room, and Chi Xiaohong knocked on Bei Xiaowu's door with a painted face and a mirror.

Bei Xiaowu opened the door, was taken aback, and asked with a smile, "What are you doing?"

Chi Xiaohong was complacent, "Is it good to watch? I used the cosmetics you gave me to study in front of the video."

Bei Xiaowu resisted the urge to laugh and shook his head violently, "You're so ugly, go wash your face."

He had just sent Chi Xiaohong away when the door was pushed open with a "squeak". Bei Xiaowu looked at the door, and he knew it couldn't be Jiang Lai at this point in time.

Sure enough, the person who came was Toad.Ha|Toad was aggressive, clenched his fists tightly, and asked Bei Xiaowu: "That little bastard I saw in the store this morning, do you know where he lives?"

"Who?"

"It's the one you asked me if I knew him!"

"What's the matter, bro? Do you remember who he is?" Bei Xiaowu was so nervous by the toad that his forearms suddenly became hairy.

"Yes," Toad pointed to a scar on his forehead angrily, and said to Bei Xiaowu, "This scar was made by that bastard who got punched in the alley last year!"

Bei Xiaowu still remembers what happened that day, because he accidentally saw Jiang Lai narcissistic in front of the mirror, he ran out of the house, Jiang Lai came out with him, and finally met a bloody clam in the parking lot at the entrance of the alley | Toad.

"You forgot?" Toad shook Bei Xiaowu's arm.

Of course, Bei Xiaowu couldn't forget, that was the day when his family had a reunion dinner, that is, from that day on, Bei Tiangui insisted on abstaining from alcohol, and would draw a tick on the calendar at the back of the notebook every day.

"I'm calling." Bei Xiaowu hastily reached for the phone.

Although he didn't know Cao Xianghu's contact information, judging from the time he came to the store with A Miao in the morning, they should live not far away or even live together.

"Hello?" A Miao answered the phone with a tired voice.

"Hey..." The moment Bei Xiaowu opened his mouth, thousands of thoughts burst out at the same time, and a strong feeling urged him not to disturb Cao Xianghu, because he secretly felt that this matter might have something to do with Bei Tiangui.

Bei Xiaowu turned his back to avoid the anxious Toad, only chatted with A Miao for a few words on the phone, and then hung up the phone.
