Wait till the sun rises

Early the next morning, Xu Jiming picked up Chen Ruolin at the hotel and drove to City B together.

"Aren't you going to your house?" Xu Jiming turned the car around and asked, turning his head sideways.

Chen Ruolin was touching up her makeup in the mirror: "Only my future husband can enter my house, are you sure?"

"I don't want it anymore." Xu Jiming shook his head like a rattle.

Chen Ruolin pointed to the front and said, "I told my parents, the appointment is at the Lixinde Hotel, just go there."

"...Li Xinde" Xu Jiming said, "Sister, don't you think this is a satire on us? Does your face hurt?"

Chen Ruolin said angrily, "Shut up!"

Finding a place to park the car, the two of them went up to the second floor under the leadership of the waiter. In front of the door, Chen Ruolin reached out to hold Xu Jiming's arm, took a deep breath and said, "Cooperate with me later, and don't call me senior sister!" ! Don’t get caught out.”

Xu Jiming also smiled: "Sister, no, Chen Ruolin, don't worry."

"Don't call out your first and last name!"

"……it is good."

The door of the box was opened, and after seeing Chen Ruolin's parents, Xu Jiming's smile froze on his face.

"Mom and Dad." Chen Ruolin didn't notice anything strange about him, she took Xu Jiming's arm and said with a smile, "Let me introduce to you, this is my new boyfriend."

silence.

Chen Ruolin's voice was a little weak, she said softly: "What... isn't it?"

"Hahaha." Mother Chen seemed to have just realized it at this time, patted Father Chen beside her, and said, "What did I say, ah, this is fate. Xiao Xu, come here quickly and sit next to Auntie."

Xu Jiming maintained a forced smile, he patted the back of Chen Ruolin's hand, and sat down beside Chen's mother.

Seeing her daughter's puzzled face, Mother Chen smiled and said, "Where is Linlin, Xiao Xu is the boy I want to introduce to you. Come on, sit down, don't stand up."

Chen's father was rarely seen with a pleasant expression: "Come on, don't just stand there, you must have a few drinks today."

Xu Jiming and Chen Ruolin laughed dryly, "Hehe, okay."

"Wait for me to eat tonight!" - Xu Jiming.

Xia Yang looked at the text message on the phone, and the corners of his lips curled up.

The backlog of things in the company was completed a few days ago by working overtime. Now that I am going to work, the work is very leisurely. Everyone is eager to move, and they are all looking forward to their annual leave and year-end bonus.

Because it is far away from home, time is limited. Xia Yang eats casually outside for lunch.

It's time to get off work, Xiao Liu stretched his waist, said while putting on his clothes, "Where are we going to eat today? I've eaten all over the place, and I'm tired of it."

Xia Yang replied a text message to Xu Jiming, and said in a good mood: "Then go to a farther place and take a taxi."

Xiao Liu said happily, "That's a good idea."

However, as soon as the two of them discussed it, a young man came and knocked on the door, "It's right here." The man looked at Xia Yang and said, "Someone is looking for you."

"Thank you." A timid female voice rang out. She was holding a lunch box in her hand, and shrugged her long hair behind her ears with her hands. It was the girl who was bumped into by Xu Jiming a few days ago.

The girl was wearing a pink coat, which had been washed and faded, but it was very clean and tidy. Xia Yang found that she had put on light makeup.

Xia Yang smiled and said, "Is there something wrong?"

Zhang Hui walked into the office nervously and said, "Well, thank you for helping me that day. This..." She put the lunch box in her hand on the table and opened it layer by layer, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? This is I did it."

Xiao Liu smiled wickedly, winked at Xia Yang, and slipped out by himself.

Xia Yang touched his nose and knew that he had misunderstood.But it's not easy to explain in front of girls.

During this time, Xia Yang called the girl occasionally because of guilt. When the car was repaired, Xia Yang failed to contact the girl, so he followed his memory to find the Sunshine Community.

This community has been built for some years, and the facilities inside are almost broken, and the cement road is almost damaged by the cars going back and forth.

Fortunately, this community is very clean, the roads are tidy, and the vegetation in the community is neatly pruned.Several small dogs with bells around their necks ran around.

"This uncle." Xia Yang stopped a passerby and asked, "Do you know where Zhang Hui lives?"

The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, thought for a while, pointed in one direction and said: Over there, I live on the third floor. "

Xia Yang thanked him, and parked the car downstairs. As soon as he entered the corridor, he heard people crying, both men and women, mixed with men's cursing.

A female voice cried out: "Stop beating, please stop beating!"

It was Zhang Hui's voice.

Xia Yang frowned, stepped on the stairs and ran up quickly, and saw a group of vicious young guys on the platforms from the second floor to the third floor, beating a man in dark blue pajamas. It was covered with mud, one slipper was hanging on the foot, and the other slipper went to nowhere.

The man in pajamas covered his head with his arms and curled up into a ball.And Zhang Hui was standing in front of that man, pushing those people with all his strength, his eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness, and tears were streaming all over his face.

"What are you doing?" Xia Yang frowned.

The group of people didn't seem to hear, Xia Yang took out his mobile phone and said, "If you don't stop, I'll call the police?"

"Xia Yang." Zhang Hui hugged the man lying on the ground tightly, calling Xia Yang's name in a trembling voice.

The group of people finally stopped. A young man in a black leather jacket brushed the dust off his sleeves, stood on a high place and looked down at Xia Yang. The debt is not repaid, and our money is not blown by the wind, is it? The brothers also have a family waiting to eat."

The man lying on the ground coughed and shivered into a ball. Zhang Hui knelt beside the man, rubbed the man's back with distressed face, and said to the group of people: "...give me some more Time, I will definitely return the money to you."

The man in the leather jacket whistled, and gave her a disdainful look: "It's up to you? What do you get for it?"

Zhang Hui glanced at Xia Yang who was standing aside, then bit her lip and said, "Give me a few more days, it will be fine, and I will definitely return the money to you!"

The man looked at her for a long time, then knelt down and patted the man's head, the man trembled even more.

"I'll find someone to watch over you, don't try to play tricks!" The man left this sentence, stood up and said, "Go."

Xia Yang stood sideways by the wall, and the leading man held sunglasses, nodded at Xia Yang, then put on the sunglasses and walked away.

·

"Sit down quickly." Seeing Xia Yang standing all the time, Zhang Hui said, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just made something."

Xia Yang said: "Don't bother."

Zhang Hui said with a smile: "Thanks to you for helping me and me... Brother, let alone delivering food to you, I am willing to do anything else."

Xia Yang saw the chopsticks she handed over and said, "How is your brother?"

A flash of sadness flashed across Zhang Hui's face, she nodded and said, "It's much better, thank you very much."

Xia Yang sighed: "It's okay, I didn't do anything. Don't stand still, sit down."

"Have you eaten yet?" Xia Yang got up and took out a pair of disposable chopsticks from the pen holder next to Xiaoliu's computer desk, and handed them to Zhang Hui, "Let's eat together."

"Thank you." Zhang Hui accepted it with some embarrassment.

·

Xia Yang opened the window, the cold wind blew in, and the smell of food wafted out.

"Then I'll go first." Zhang Hui packed the lunch box and said softly.

When she got downstairs, Zhang Hui brushed her long hair behind her ears with her fingers, and said, "You go back and take a nap. I'll just take a taxi back."

"Yeah." Xia Yang nodded, watched the girl walk a few steps, then chased after her and said, "You..."

Zhang Hui stared at him nervously, "What?"

Xia Yang looked down at the ground, carefully chose his words, and looked at Zhang Hui after a while and said, "I have no other intentions, but if you have any difficulties, you can tell me... have those people still looking for you?" Trouble? I have some money here, although it is not much, but first..."

"No need." Zhang Hui shook her head in a panic and said, "No really, I'll go first."

Looking at her running back, Xia Yang sighed, turned and went back to the office.

Zhang Hui ran a long way before stopping, squatting on the ground and crying.

At five twenty, Xu Jiming yawned in the car and fell asleep.He was physically and mentally exhausted after the meal at noon, and he only hoped that this matter would not be passed on to his mother.

knock knock knock.

Someone knocked on the car window from the outside, Xu Jiming cheered up, put down the windshield, and saw Han Rui bending over and blinking at him.

"Yo, come to pick up Yangyang from get off work?" he said.
