Thank you boss starfish ~ bow.

Shen Heng changed schools once, and his homework fell behind a bit, and he lived with his mother in a small county before, and the teaching resources were not good enough. When he was picked up by the Shen family, he had a hard time studying, and now he was delayed for half a year. Monthly class, let alone catch up.

After a few days of listening to the lectures, Shen Heng felt a little depressed.

On Friday night, Shen Heng finished the audition for one of the schools Xie Zhang had chosen for him, went back to the bedroom after dinner, and locked the door.

Sister Zhou was careful and sensitively noticed something was wrong with Shen Heng. Before leaving get off work at night, she saw that Shen Heng hadn't come out yet, so she quietly sent a message to Xie Zhang: Mr. Xie, Xiao Shen didn't seem to be in the right mood, and didn't eat much for dinner.

Most of the children's troubles are because they are still young, and even big things can make them feel that the sky is about to fall. Xie Zhang and his assistant confirmed that Shen Heng was not bullied at school, so he put this matter aside up.

He has more important things to do.

Today is Little Bean Sprout's birthday.

Went to her grandparents during the day, Xie Zhang didn't want to disturb, and agreed with Xiao Douya'er to make up for her birthday gift in the evening, unexpectedly, a section chief of the Supervision Bureau came over when he was about to get off work, and he couldn't get rid of it. body, it will be too late.

He didn't bring a driver, he drove his own car.

It was not too early, and Xiaodou Sprout was so sleepy that he dozed off in his mother's arms, his upper and lower eyelids were almost glued together. Seeing Xie Zhanglai forcefully get up from the sofa, he couldn't help but frolicking, rubbing his eyes and saying : "Dad, you are so late."

Xie Zhang gave the gift to the child, leaned over and hugged her, and said softly, "Dad was wrong, can I go to bed with you now?"

Little Bean Sprout hugged her gift, yawned and said "Thank you Dad".

What Xie Zhang gave her was a very beautiful flowered dress, and Xiao Dou Sprout gesticulated on her body a few times in a daze, but was finally overwhelmed by the sleepiness. She put her arms around Xie Zhang's neck and kissed her, saying, "I forgive you." You, my mother said that I have grown up and I have to sleep by myself."

Xie Zhang turned around to look at Liutang who was standing behind him with a gentle face, kissed the little bean sprouts, and said, "Our little bean sprouts are awesome!"

He watched Little Bean Sprouts run back to his room before turning around and walking to Liu Tang's side, and said helplessly, "Sister-in-law, you have a hesitant expression on your face, so if you have anything to tell you, just say it."

Liu Tang handed Xie Zhang an orange, then licked her short hair at the temples, and said, "I heard from sister Zhou that you took in a boy by your side a few days ago."

Xie Zhang said, "Yes."

Seeing that Xie Zhang got his hands dirty by eating oranges, Liu Tang handed him a paper towel and started another topic: "By the way, Lao Xie, I transferred to the back office last month. I have fewer things to do. I can bring my own bean sprouts in the future." Son. I know, you are doing it for Lao Yuan, and Xiaodou Sprout was still young at that time, and you didn't want her to feel that she didn't have a father, but now she is four years old, it's time to change her name."

Xie Zhang couldn't help laughing when the preface was connected with the postscript: "Sister-in-law, do all of you criminal investigators talk like this? Don't worry, that child hasn't even turned eighteen yet, and I'm not that beastly yet."

Liu Tang knew him too well, so he exposed him mercilessly: "You are not a beast? You were merciless when you punished your nephew back then, and you would be so kind to take in a young man who has nothing to do with him?"

Xie Zhang finished eating the oranges in his hand, and made a gesture of surrender: "I confess, please organize for leniency."

"That child is the illegitimate son surnamed Shen who just came back. He naturally likes boys. Because he was bullied by his brothers, I happened to see him. Sister-in-law, I softened my heart that day and asked him to come back."

This statement sounds unbelievable, Xie Zhang's whole body does not match the words "kind heart and soft hand".

Liu Tang tried to see signs of lying on Xie Zhang's face, but she failed, and could only confirm, "Are you really not interested in him?"

Xie Zhang looked at Liu Tang frankly: "No."

Liu Tang had no choice but to believe it, but sighed regretfully, got up and went to get two cans of pickles for Xie Zhang: "If you don't have it, you don't have it, you have to be careful, if you like someone, hurry up, don't follow him every day. The smiling face looks like a ghost... Well, Grandma Xiaodou Sprouts made it, don’t you also like to eat this, take it home.”

The smile on Xie Zhang's face froze for a moment, but he quickly covered it up, reached out to take the pickles and put them away carefully, and got up to say goodbye to Liu Tang.

When he went back, Xie Zhang was a little confused.

He lost his father in his early years, saw the warmth and coldness of people, and lived a rather gloomy life.

When he was in high school, his mother had just died of illness, and he was still living at his grandfather's house. He was excluded by his classmates because of his unsocial personality, and later, who discovered his sexual orientation. The boys in the school called him "disgusting" ", stopped him on the road after school, and blocked him in the toilet during recess.

Once he was bullied so badly that he got into a fight with a group of senior classmates in the toilet, and his head was smashed. It was Yuan Zheng who snatched him out of the crowd and sent him to the infirmary.

Later, he returned to Xie's house.

In a few years, he became the cold-hearted and black-hearted Mr. Xie, who was best at hiding the knife in his smile. He was a soft-hearted person who didn't eat oil and salt. He didn't talk to anyone at all. Yuan Zheng became his only friend who talked to him.

Yuan Zheng, a big fool, had a strong sense of justice since he was a child, so he volunteered to apply for the police academy, and after graduation he joined the criminal investigation detachment.

Xie Zhang always felt that Yuan Zheng was a fool with good fortune. After working in the Criminal Investigation Detachment for a few months, he caught up with Liutang, the team flower. A year later, he got married and had a cute and attractive little bean sprout.

At that time, he loved to run to Yuan Zheng's house. The family of three was harmonious and beautiful, so he just wanted to gain some popularity, and he didn't want to go back to his empty house.

However, unforeseen events happened. Three years ago, Yuan Zheng died in a certain mission.

He raised Little Bean Sprout as his own child, but he always wanted to avoid suspicion for Liu Tang, so he rarely went to Yuan Zheng's house, and became a rootless person again.

At the Shen family's banquet that day, hearing the group of Shen family insulting and teasing Shen Heng, he suddenly thought of Yuan Zheng.

Xie Zhang found a place to park the car on the side of the road, sat in the driver's seat and smoked two cigarettes.

His heart was as hard as iron, so the sympathy for Shen Heng probably did not come from Xie Zhang, but from Yuan Zheng.
