Chapter 89
He Ze was in a hurry, and rushed forward as if he was about to wrestle with Sheng Huaijin again. Several colleagues around He Ze saw that the fight was about to start again, and immediately began to persuade them to fight again. Disturbed by the sound, he closed his eyes and calmed down for a long time, and began to sort out the thoughts in his mind.
He thought the same as He Ze, Xu Xi should not be far away, but even the city of Beijing is not small, it will take some time to find someone who wants to hide, but Sheng Huaijin can't wait for a minute, Xu Xi is not with him His surroundings made him extremely anxious.
He Ze also calmed down for a moment, then pointed at Sheng Huaijin and said loudly, "I tell you, I found him, and I will never let you bully him again!"
"What are you, he won't go with you." Sheng Huaijin took off his soaked coat, threw it into the trash can by the side of the road, turned around and left.That's what he said, but Xu Xi fled desperately again, what does it mean?He is completely dead to himself, and he will not go with him.
But no matter what, Sheng Huaijin couldn't let He Ze find Xu Xi first, he regretted a bit, he shouldn't have come to He Ze so impulsively, and let He Ze know that Xu Xi had disappeared.
Sheng Huaijin endured the panic in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and then immediately called to make arrangements. Even if the city of Beijing was turned upside down, he would still find Xu Xi.

The bus drove staggeringly, Xu Xi leaned against the window and fell into a drowsy sleep. After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt itchy ankles. Xu Xi woke up suddenly, looked down and almost screamed When he came out, a fluffy ball rolled around under his feet.
"Well, I'm sorry, don't be afraid." A young man's voice sounded next to him. He pulled Xu Xi's arm, smiled apologetically, then picked up the fur ball on the ground, hugged it in his arms and said in a reproachful way: "Goofy, you scared my brother."
Xu Xi suddenly got goosebumps all over his body. When he saw that the man was holding a small brown-red long-haired dog, Xu Xi didn't know what breed it was. Although it looked cute, it was called a dog like this. My brother still finds it weird.
The man rubbed the dog a few times, then smiled apologetically and said, "I'm so sorry, it's too pitiful to keep him in a small cage all this time, so I'll let him out to play, don't bite, don't be afraid .”
Xu Xi was not afraid of dogs, but she was flustered in her heart, and her complexion was always bad. She bit her lower lip for a long time and was speechless.
The person next to him was dumbfounded when he saw Xu Xi's appearance, and said anxiously: "Ah, you are not really afraid of dogs, are you? Look at your pale face...I'll put him in the cage right away, I'm sorry."
"No, it's not." Xu Xi hurriedly replied: "I'm not afraid of dogs, it's just... I feel a little uncomfortable, you don't need to put it back."
"I still need it." The man still opened the small cage under his feet and put the dog in.It was only at this time that Xu Xi saw the person next to him clearly. Although they had been walking together on the road for several hours, Xu Xi was always caught in his own emotions and did not look at the person next to him.It was only then that I realized that this was a young boy in his early twenties, with a handsome appearance and beautiful arm muscles.He was wearing a red t-shirt with a small chain on his jeans, and he looked like a very energetic, enthusiastic and hearty young man.
He put the dog in the cage, and comforted the little dog a few times, it was a little out of character for his big man to talk to a little dog so softly, Xu Xi couldn't even blink when he saw it.It took him a long time to finish speaking, he straightened up and smiled at Xu Xi, and said, "Hi, you've finally talked to me, it's been a few hours, you're either in a daze or sleeping, I thought you were so deep Woolen cloth."
Xu Xi said in a daze, "Thinking about...things."
"Oh, it seems that you have something on your mind." The man said in Xu Xi's ear, "I wanted to talk to you just now, but you ignored me, so I asked you, are you a model? Saw you online."
As soon as Xu Xi's face changed, she immediately pulled on her hoodie to cover her face.
The man blinked and said, "I didn't expect it to be you, but...how come you are so thin? You look a little baby fat in the photo! Wait, no, if it's really you, aren't you a celebrity?" ! Why are you here? Are you recording a show? A reality show?"
Xu Xi waved his hands again and again, but the man didn't care about Xu Xi's denial, he looked around and said, "Where is the camera hidden? Where is it hidden?"
Xu Xi grabbed his arm and said eagerly: "You, stop making trouble, others heard it."
The man mysteriously lowered his voice and said to Xu Xi: "Ah, okay, this is a reality show, right? I watched this special recently, selling skewers and driving taxis on Star Street."
"no."
"Then what? Tricky show?"
"Not at all, I'm not a star." Xu Xiji's forehead started to sweat.
The man saw that Xu Xi was about to get angry, so he restrained himself, frowned and said seriously: "Oh... I just saw you on the Internet and said you were a model... But it's been a long time."
"I don't do that now." Xu Xi was really anxious.
The man scratched the tip of his nose and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't seen a celebrity before, so I'm a little excited. Hehe, you look better than a little girl. It's a pity not to be a celebrity. Then what are you doing now?" ?”
Xu Xi couldn't resist such familiarity, and said honestly: "I work in a barber shop..."
"I said how kind you are when I look at you!" The man grabbed Xu Xi's hand and said with a smile: "Come with me, I'm also a barber!"
Xu Xi blinked, and before he could speak, the man started to say again: "Haha, people say that people who work in hair salons have a special temperament of washing, cutting and blowing. Look, I don't have it, and neither do you. That's great, look at your small round size, how energetic you are. Sure enough, people in the capital are western style, you can see that they are all hair stylists, this temperament is different, you look really small. Oh, yes, you are Where are you going?"
He said a lot, Xu Xi couldn't catch the point, and answered the question honestly, saying: "Go to Sichuan."
"Ah, Sichuan is so big, this car has to stop at several stops, be more specific."
"I... I don't know yet..."
"Ah? You don't know what you're running around for?" The man opened his eyes and asked in confusion, "Then why are you running to Sichuan?"
Xu Xi choked up, unable to speak, and bit her lip to keep silent.
The man looked at Xu Xi for a long time, and found that he was embarrassed, so he didn't ask any more questions, and just talked about his own affairs: "I'm from Sichuan, and this time I came to Beijing to pick up my son. Just this dog. My partner broke up with me and said he was going to the capital for a while. We raised this dog together and took it away. Later I found out that the dog was not doing well at all. It looked so thin in the photo, so I came to Beijing to pick it up in a fit of anger. I didn’t know that it would be so troublesome to take an animal by train or plane, and what kind of epidemic prevention certificate do I need to apply for? The hotel fee is too expensive, and I can’t afford it. .Fortunately, I was clever and contacted the bus, which is so convenient, I took the bus and left."
After hearing what he said, Xu Xi nodded.
The man said again: "Beijing is very big and prosperous, but our small city is also good. My store is not too big or small, and the business is not bad. Thanks to my handsome boss, he attracts female customers, cough cough .”
Xu Xi was startled and said, "You, you open your own shop?"
The man proudly said: "No, I didn't study at the age of 16 and became an apprentice. I saved some money and borrowed some money. Of course, the store is rented, so I still can't afford it. I plan to buy one by myself in a few years... ...bigger."
Xu Xi was so ashamed that he couldn't lift his head. He had been an apprentice since he was a teenager, and he was still washing people's hair all these years.
The man didn't notice Xu Xi's expression, and sighed: "Oh, it's just that recruiting is a little troublesome, and now they are all running to big cities. It's really difficult to recruit a few assistants."
"Oh..." Xu Xi replied absent-mindedly.
"Oh, by the way, do you want to come to my store?" The man glanced at Xu Xi and said with a smile, "There are celebrities in my store, so the business will be even better?"
He just said this casually, but it immediately made Xu Xi find a little light in the darkness. He had no idea at first, but now someone gave him an idea at this time, and he asked happily almost immediately. Said: "Is it really possible?"
Seeing that Xu Xi was serious, the man was a little dumbfounded and said: "Ah, are you serious?"
Xu Xi's face darkened again.When the man saw it, he seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and hurriedly said: "That, that is okay, I just said that I thought you would not be willing, so let's see it when we arrive in Chengdu. If you think my shop is okay, just go Stay, I'm going to recruit people anyway."
Xu Xi hurriedly said, "Thank you."
"Thank you. I said you are so casual. You see that you don't bring anything with you, and you go far away. If you meet a stranger and dare to go with him, aren't you afraid that I will be a bad person?"
Xu Xi was shocked and said, "Are you a bad person?"
The man burst out laughing with a "puchi" and said, "I'm not, are you a bad person?"
"Me neither." Xu Xi said sincerely.
The man held his stomach and laughed for a long time before recovering, and said: "You are too funny, well, we are not bad people, let's make friends. My surname is Sun, and my name is Sun Ye. What's your name?"
"My name is Xu Xi."
After the two introduced each other, they chatted. Sun Ye was just a chatterbox. Just now, he saw Xu Xi's uneasy state, so he kept holding back. At this time, when Xu Xi regained his senses, he couldn't keep his mouth shut. To be honest, a very cheerful person.
Xu Xi felt very lucky to meet such a good person, otherwise he would not know what to do next.
After bouncing on the bus for two days and one night, they finally arrived in Chengdu. The two of them got off the bus halfway, called a taxi, and traveled for a long time before arriving at their destination.
A few years ago, this place was just a small county on the edge of Chengdu, and it was not long before it was included in the scope of Chengdu. It is still a bit reluctant to say that it is a district of the provincial capital. It is not very prosperous here, but the greening is very good. The air is good, and it's a beautiful place.
After getting along for a short time, Sun is already very satisfied with Xu Xi, and thinks he is honest and well-behaved. After hearing that Xu Xi came to Sichuan alone in desperation in Beijing, Sun felt very sorry for Xu Xi. The younger brother yelled, and took him to his shop without asking any more questions.
The scale of the barber shop is not large, but such a place cannot open a large-scale shop.The store has a total of forty to fifty square meters, the decoration is very new, and it looks like it has not been open for a long time.
Sun Ye pushed open the door and went in. Several people in the store immediately rushed up and surrounded them enthusiastically. They were overjoyed when they saw Xu Xi. A tall young girl came up and pointed at Xu Xi. Looking at Xu Xi, he said, "Oh, boss, who is this? Didn't you say you went to Beijing to pick up the dog, where did you hook up such a kid? Boss, you are too profligate!"
She spoke Sichuan dialect, Xu Xi didn't realize it for a while, she couldn't understand.
Sun Ye also came out of the Sichuan accent, saying: "I turned back halfway, new partner, come, let me introduce you, it's a pity."
Everyone looked at Xu Xi curiously, making Xu Xi feel a little embarrassed.Sun Ye introduced the people in the shop to Xu Xi one by one. There were only three barbers and two assistants in total, and with him there were three.
Then Sun went to lie down on the shampoo bed, tried Xu Xi's skills, and was full of praise for Xu Xi when it was over, so it was decided to stay and work.Then Sun also explained the things in the store, and then took Xu Xi to the place where he lived, and told Xu Xi about salary, shifts and so on.
The place where they live is in a community opposite the store. They rented a two-bedroom apartment. Three boys lived in one room, and the other room was occupied by two girls. With a small bed.
Sun Ye originally wanted to pack up his things and sleep in the living room by himself, but Xu Xi was afraid of sleeping with others, and he was more comfortable sleeping in the living room, so Sun didn't insist much, pulled out the old curtains and drew a curtain, and put the It becomes a simple room separated from the side.
"It's done." Sun Ye threw the bedroll on the small bed, and walked into the bedroom by himself, saying as he walked, "Well, you can do it yourself. I'm almost exhausted after sitting in the car for so long. Take a break and start working tomorrow."
After speaking, Sun went back and collapsed on his bed and began to sleep.
Xu Xi sat blankly on the small bed, looking at the strange environment and listening to the strange language, it felt like a dream, and he was so oppressed and uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.He really wanted to cry, he looked at Sun Ye who fell asleep quickly, and felt grateful again, if he hadn't met Sun Ye, his situation might be even worse now, he didn't know where he should go.
Xu Xi wiped her eyes, put aside all the sadness and anxiety for the time being, the current life still has to go on, he has already walked out, and always has to work hard to live.
It was getting late, and it looked like it was going to rain again.
******
Sheng Huaijin looked sideways at the gloomy sky outside the window, her heart was also gloomy.
The development of the matter has exceeded his expectations. He did not expect that after searching for two days, he still had no clue. In these two days, he could not sleep at all, thinking about Xu Xi all the time.
At this time, Sheng Huaijin was sitting in the living room of Sheng's house, looking at his watch and cell phone from time to time, looking very anxious.
Sheng Zhen was sitting on the sofa and talking on the phone. Did he stare at Sheng Huaijin? After a long time, Sheng Huaijin was completely restless. Sheng Zhen finally hung up the phone and shouted: "Where are you going!"
"Dad, tell me what you have, I still have something to do."
"Sit down for me!" Sheng Zhen knocked on the table and said loudly, "What's the matter with you and He Ze fighting on the street! Tell me clearly! How many times have I told you, don't Arguing with members of the He family will have a bad influence, you..."
"Dad, don't talk about it. It's nothing. We didn't deal with it in the first place. It's not like you don't know."
"You fart, I think you are not normal recently! You have to remember your identity clearly, you are from the Sheng family, and everything you do represents the Sheng family. You have been doing very well before, but recently you are always looking for things, You're going back as you live, right?"
Sheng Huaijin pursed her lips irritably, and said, "Dad, pay attention to your identity. Who is that Xiaoyao? She's calling home. Dad, I do things on my own. Don't worry about me. Never mind you."
Sheng Zhen was so angry that his hair was going to stand on end, he didn't care about it, and said angrily, "You bastard!"
Sheng Huaijin has had a bad relationship with his father since he was a child. The father is incompetent, so the son will naturally not get close to him. The two always quarrel when they say something like this. Sheng Huaijin is very irritable at this time. When it rang, Sheng Huaijin's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the phone: "How is it?"
After speaking a few words on the other end of the phone, Sheng Huaijin's expression became more and more serious. He hung up the phone with a dead face.
Everyone that Xu Xi knew could have gone to any place, but he still couldn't find his trace. He just disappeared, and he didn't know where he was hiding. Sheng Huaijin couldn't help thinking about the worst possibility , Did Xu Xi leave Beijing?
The moment the idea of donating came up, alarm bells rang in Sheng Huaijin's heart. Before that, she always thought that it was impossible for Xu Xi to leave Beijing.After all, he would be very uncomfortable with any change in his lifestyle, so Sheng Huaijin believed that Xu Xi could not run very far, but the current situation made him have to pay attention to it.
This time, Xu Xi probably really didn't want to see him anymore, so she decided to let go of everything and leave.It's not too troublesome to find someone in Beijing, but to find someone across the country... Sheng Huaijin doesn't even know where to start.
He suddenly felt his whole body start to feel cold, and his skin was tingling from the cold.
Sheng Huaijin forced herself not to panic and to sort out her thoughts.Now that planes and trains have been checked, Xu Xi did not take these two means of transportation, so the remaining possibilities are buses or black cars.Both of these can avoid being checked to the greatest extent. The mobile phone has not been turned on, nor has it called anyone.Xu Xi definitely couldn't think of such a thorough plan by himself, and someone would definitely help him.
Who should it be!
Sheng Huaijin ignored Sheng Zhen's yelling and ran out of the house.
The clouds were dark, and the sky began to rain again.Sheng Huaijin stretched out his palm to catch the falling raindrops in a daze, it was very cold.
He met Xu Xi on a rainy day, and lost him also on a rainy day.He didn't know how long it would take to find Xu Xi, and he didn't know if he would collapse before that.
Sheng Huaijin stared blankly at the sky, feeling damp in her heart.
******
Xu Xi never thought that he could settle down in Sichuan like this. Two months have passed in the blink of an eye, and he didn't even know that he could adapt so well here.Compared with Beijing, the pace of life here is very slow, and there is not so much competition. The people in the store are all young, and the oldest Sun Ye is only 22 years old. Everyone gets along very well and has a very good relationship.Xu Xi seemed to have suddenly lost all the burdens that weighed on him. He relaxed and felt at a loss as to what to do. He couldn't let himself be idle for a moment, otherwise he would feel flustered.Every morning when I get up, I go to the store to clean up, wash towels, clean the small house after get off work, and try to find something to do, just keep busy like this.
One day it was very hot at noon, and there were no customers in the store. Everyone gathered together to watch TV. Xu Xiye was sitting on a chair and fell asleep. Don't go to sleep."
Xu Xi woke up suddenly, and turned around to see Sun Ye looking at him with a smile on his face.
Several other people in the shop shouted at Sun Ye: "The boss is shameless and taking advantage of Xu Xi, Xu Xi, beat him up."
Xu Xi laughed softly and took Sun Ye's arm away from her, saying, "Sun Ye, stop making trouble."
Sun also ignored Xu Xi and continued to come to hug Xu Xi, and said in a stubborn manner: "I don't care, this is my daughter-in-law, a beautiful and virtuous little daughter-in-law."
After getting acquainted, Sun also liked to joke with Xu Xi even more. Every time he saw Xu Xi wearing an apron and doing housework seriously, he came up to make trouble with Xu Xi, and kept calling him "daughter-in-law". Xu Xi was not used to it at first. When I grew up, I knew that Sun Ye was like this, so I followed him.
Sun Ye continued to pester Xu Xi, saying, "I got watermelon juice on my clothes, and I can't wash them clean, daughter-in-law, please wash them for me."
Xu Xi brushed away Sun Ye's hand dangling in front of him, and nodded with a smile.
The people next to them laughed at them again for a long time, Xu Xi's drowsiness disappeared, and they watched the entertainment news on TV together. As soon as he looked up, the smile on Xu Xi's face froze. Sheng Huaijin's familiar face , unexpectedly appeared in front of Xu Xi's eyes.
Xu Xi just felt as if he was suddenly frozen, and could only stare blankly at the TV screen. The news said that Xu Xi didn't hear clearly, and it was about Sheng Huaijin participating in some award ceremony. He wore sunglasses the whole time, and his face was always straight.He seemed to be a little thinner, with sunken cheeks.
The two girls next to him were nympho at Sheng Huaijin, screaming and saying "so handsome" and so on.
Sun also glanced at the TV screen, and said, "I'm already out of breath, what are you doing?"
A girl said unconvinced: "I think you are stupid. You are so old, and now you are your own boss, you are very powerful."
"I'm also the boss, why didn't I see you screaming at me?" Sun Ye hummed nonchalantly, then turned to see Xu Xi who was in a daze.He stretched out his hand and looked at Xu Xi's eyes twice, and said, "Daughter-in-law, why are you so focused?"
He thought the same as He Ze, Xu Xi should not be far away, but even the city of Beijing is not small, it will take some time to find someone who wants to hide, but Sheng Huaijin can't wait for a minute, Xu Xi is not with him His surroundings made him extremely anxious.
He Ze also calmed down for a moment, then pointed at Sheng Huaijin and said loudly, "I tell you, I found him, and I will never let you bully him again!"
"What are you, he won't go with you." Sheng Huaijin took off his soaked coat, threw it into the trash can by the side of the road, turned around and left.That's what he said, but Xu Xi fled desperately again, what does it mean?He is completely dead to himself, and he will not go with him.
But no matter what, Sheng Huaijin couldn't let He Ze find Xu Xi first, he regretted a bit, he shouldn't have come to He Ze so impulsively, and let He Ze know that Xu Xi had disappeared.
Sheng Huaijin endured the panic in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and then immediately called to make arrangements. Even if the city of Beijing was turned upside down, he would still find Xu Xi.

A few years ago, this place was just a small county on the edge of Chengdu, and it was not long before it was included in the scope of Chengdu. It is still a bit reluctant to say that it is a district of the provincial capital. It is not very prosperous here, but the greening is very good. The air is good, and it's a beautiful place.
After getting along for a short time, Sun is already very satisfied with Xu Xi, and thinks he is honest and well-behaved. After hearing that Xu Xi came to Sichuan alone in desperation in Beijing, Sun felt very sorry for Xu Xi. The younger brother yelled, and took him to his shop without asking any more questions.
The scale of the barber shop is not large, but such a place cannot open a large-scale shop.The store has a total of forty to fifty square meters, the decoration is very new, and it looks like it has not been open for a long time.
Sun Ye pushed open the door and went in. Several people in the store immediately rushed up and surrounded them enthusiastically. They were overjoyed when they saw Xu Xi. A tall young girl came up and pointed at Xu Xi. Looking at Xu Xi, he said, "Oh, boss, who is this? Didn't you say you went to Beijing to pick up the dog, where did you hook up such a kid? Boss, you are too profligate!"
She spoke Sichuan dialect, Xu Xi didn't realize it for a while, she couldn't understand.
Sun Ye also came out of the Sichuan accent, saying: "I turned back halfway, new partner, come, let me introduce you, it's a pity."
Everyone looked at Xu Xi curiously, making Xu Xi feel a little embarrassed.Sun Ye introduced the people in the shop to Xu Xi one by one. There were only three barbers and two assistants in total, and with him there were three.
Then Sun went to lie down on the shampoo bed, tried Xu Xi's skills, and was full of praise for Xu Xi when it was over, so it was decided to stay and work.Then Sun also explained the things in the store, and then took Xu Xi to the place where he lived, and told Xu Xi about salary, shifts and so on.
The place where they live is in a community opposite the store. They rented a two-bedroom apartment. Three boys lived in one room, and the other room was occupied by two girls. With a small bed.
Sun Ye originally wanted to pack up his things and sleep in the living room by himself, but Xu Xi was afraid of sleeping with others, and he was more comfortable sleeping in the living room, so Sun didn't insist much, pulled out the old curtains and drew a curtain, and put the It becomes a simple room separated from the side.
"It's done." Sun Ye threw the bedroll on the small bed, and walked into the bedroom by himself, saying as he walked, "Well, you can do it yourself. I'm almost exhausted after sitting in the car for so long. Take a break and start working tomorrow."
After speaking, Sun went back and collapsed on his bed and began to sleep.
Xu Xi sat blankly on the small bed, looking at the strange environment and listening to the strange language, it felt like a dream, and he was so oppressed and uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.He really wanted to cry, he looked at Sun Ye who fell asleep quickly, and felt grateful again, if he hadn't met Sun Ye, his situation might be even worse now, he didn't know where he should go.
Xu Xi wiped her eyes, put aside all the sadness and anxiety for the time being, the current life still has to go on, he has already walked out, and always has to work hard to live.
It was getting late, and it looked like it was going to rain again.

Sheng Huaijin looked sideways at the gloomy sky outside the window, her heart was also gloomy.
The development of the matter has exceeded his expectations. He did not expect that after searching for two days, he still had no clue. In these two days, he could not sleep at all, thinking about Xu Xi all the time.
At this time, Sheng Huaijin was sitting in the living room of Sheng's house, looking at his watch and cell phone from time to time, looking very anxious.
Sheng Zhen was sitting on the sofa and talking on the phone. Did he stare at Sheng Huaijin? After a long time, Sheng Huaijin was completely restless. Sheng Zhen finally hung up the phone and shouted: "Where are you going!"
"Dad, tell me what you have, I still have something to do."
"Sit down for me!" Sheng Zhen knocked on the table and said loudly, "What's the matter with you and He Ze fighting on the street! Tell me clearly! How many times have I told you, don't Arguing with members of the He family will have a bad influence, you..."
"Dad, don't talk about it. It's nothing. We didn't deal with it in the first place. It's not like you don't know."
"You fart, I think you are not normal recently! You have to remember your identity clearly, you are from the Sheng family, and everything you do represents the Sheng family. You have been doing very well before, but recently you are always looking for things, You're going back as you live, right?"
Sheng Huaijin pursed her lips irritably, and said, "Dad, pay attention to your identity. Who is that Xiaoyao? She's calling home. Dad, I do things on my own. Don't worry about me. Never mind you."
Sheng Zhen was so angry that his hair was going to stand on end, he didn't care about it, and said angrily, "You bastard!"
Sheng Huaijin has had a bad relationship with his father since he was a child. The father is incompetent, so the son will naturally not get close to him. The two always quarrel when they say something like this. Sheng Huaijin is very irritable at this time. When it rang, Sheng Huaijin's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the phone: "How is it?"
After speaking a few words on the other end of the phone, Sheng Huaijin's expression became more and more serious. He hung up the phone with a dead face.
Everyone that Xu Xi knew could have gone to any place, but he still couldn't find his trace. He just disappeared, and he didn't know where he was hiding. Sheng Huaijin couldn't help thinking about the worst possibility , Did Xu Xi leave Beijing?
The moment the idea of donating came up, alarm bells rang in Sheng Huaijin's heart. Before that, she always thought that it was impossible for Xu Xi to leave Beijing.After all, he would be very uncomfortable with any change in his lifestyle, so Sheng Huaijin believed that Xu Xi could not run very far, but the current situation made him have to pay attention to it.
This time, Xu Xi probably really didn't want to see him anymore, so she decided to let go of everything and leave.It's not too troublesome to find someone in Beijing, but to find someone across the country... Sheng Huaijin doesn't even know where to start.
He suddenly felt his whole body start to feel cold, and his skin was tingling from the cold.
Sheng Huaijin forced herself not to panic and to sort out her thoughts.Now that planes and trains have been checked, Xu Xi did not take these two means of transportation, so the remaining possibilities are buses or black cars.Both of these can avoid being checked to the greatest extent. The mobile phone has not been turned on, nor has it called anyone.Xu Xi definitely couldn't think of such a thorough plan by himself, and someone would definitely help him.
Who should it be!
Sheng Huaijin ignored Sheng Zhen's yelling and ran out of the house.
The clouds were dark, and the sky began to rain again.Sheng Huaijin stretched out his palm to catch the falling raindrops in a daze, it was very cold.
He met Xu Xi on a rainy day, and lost him also on a rainy day.He didn't know how long it would take to find Xu Xi, and he didn't know if he would collapse before that.
Sheng Huaijin stared blankly at the sky, feeling damp in her heart.
******
Xu Xi never thought that he could settle down in Sichuan like this. Two months have passed in the blink of an eye, and he didn't even know that he could adapt so well here.Compared with Beijing, the pace of life here is very slow, and there is not so much competition. The people in the store are all young, and the oldest Sun Ye is only 22 years old. Everyone gets along very well and has a very good relationship.Xu Xi seemed to have suddenly lost all the burdens that weighed on him. He relaxed and felt at a loss as to what to do. He couldn't let himself be idle for a moment, otherwise he would feel flustered.Every morning when I get up, I go to the store to clean up, wash towels, clean the small house after get off work, and try to find something to do, just keep busy like this.
One day it was very hot at noon, and there were no customers in the store. Everyone gathered together to watch TV. Xu Xiye was sitting on a chair and fell asleep. Don't go to sleep."
Xu Xi woke up suddenly, and turned around to see Sun Ye looking at him with a smile on his face.
Several other people in the shop shouted at Sun Ye: "The boss is shameless and taking advantage of Xu Xi, Xu Xi, beat him up."
Xu Xi laughed softly and took Sun Ye's arm away from her, saying, "Sun Ye, stop making trouble."
Sun also ignored Xu Xi and continued to come to hug Xu Xi, and said in a stubborn manner: "I don't care, this is my daughter-in-law, a beautiful and virtuous little daughter-in-law."
After getting acquainted, Sun also liked to joke with Xu Xi even more. Every time he saw Xu Xi wearing an apron and doing housework seriously, he came up to make trouble with Xu Xi, and kept calling him "daughter-in-law". Xu Xi was not used to it at first. When I grew up, I knew that Sun Ye was like this, so I followed him.
Sun Ye continued to pester Xu Xi, saying, "I got watermelon juice on my clothes, and I can't wash them clean, daughter-in-law, please wash them for me."
Xu Xi brushed away Sun Ye's hand dangling in front of him, and nodded with a smile.
The people next to them laughed at them again for a long time, Xu Xi's drowsiness disappeared, and they watched the entertainment news on TV together. As soon as he looked up, the smile on Xu Xi's face froze. Sheng Huaijin's familiar face , unexpectedly appeared in front of Xu Xi's eyes.
Xu Xi just felt as if he was suddenly frozen, and could only stare blankly at the TV screen. The news said that Xu Xi didn't hear clearly, and it was about Sheng Huaijin participating in some award ceremony. He wore sunglasses the whole time, and his face was always straight.He seemed to be a little thinner, with sunken cheeks.
The two girls next to him were nympho at Sheng Huaijin, screaming and saying "so handsome" and so on.
Sun also glanced at the TV screen, and said, "I'm already out of breath, what are you doing?"
A girl said unconvinced: "I think you are stupid. You are so old, and now you are your own boss, you are very powerful."
"I'm also the boss, why didn't I see you screaming at me?" Sun Ye hummed nonchalantly, then turned to see Xu Xi who was in a daze.He stretched out his hand and looked at Xu Xi's eyes twice, and said, "Daughter-in-law, why are you so focused?"
