Every time Chi Ji received a call from the police, it was basically related to the Chi family.

After counting, the investigation results of the Chi Xing Group are about to come out. Chi Ji thought that the police contacted him should be the matter, but he didn't expect that it was not.

After hanging up the phone, Chi Ji and Lu Changming did not go home directly, but went to the Haitang District Police Station.

In the hall, Chi Ji saw a completely unexpected person.

"Hello, hello!" The long-awaited middle-aged woman immediately greeted Chi Ji after she entered the door, speaking in raw Mandarin, "Oh! I found it! Thank you, officer, thank you officer."

The other party was dressed plainly, his scalp was mixed with black and white, and there were obvious aging lines on his face.

Chi Ji didn't recognize her at all at first glance, but because the woman spoke with some G city accent, he quickly realized it.

Last year, when he returned to G City to visit a doctor, Chi Ji met a middle-aged woman in the hospital, who was crying in the hospital because the money for her daughter's medical treatment was stolen.

Chi Ji couldn't see it, so he stuffed 10 yuan in the past.

Because there happened to be some friction with Yao Simei and Chi Chenglin in the ward at that time, and Lu Changming was not around, Chi Ji was in a bad mood, so he didn't take this matter to heart, and he forgot about it when he turned his head. I don't remember leaving my phone

Even Lu Changming only learned the ins and outs of this incident from Chi Ji on the way from the company to the police station just now.

The last time it was just a one-sided relationship, and the middle-aged woman was crying because of the loss of money. Half a year later, Chi Ji didn't even remember her appearance.

But with Chi Ji and Lu Changming both wearing masks, the middle-aged woman recognized the person who helped her at a glance.

It seemed that it was because Chi Ji's clothes were extraordinarily neat and bright compared to her own. The middle-aged woman didn't have the nerve to get too close together, but stood about a meter away, her brows brimming with joy, her face full of excitement, her hands clenched.

"I don't know if you still remember me. My name is Sun Changxia. We met at the People's Hospital of City G last year. I asked the police officer in City G to find your contact information, but the police officer said that citizens' personal information cannot be disclosed at will. I can only connect with you personally through the police station. Knowing that you are in City S, I came here from home to thank you."

These policemen have already mentioned it on the phone, and at the same time said that Chi Ji doesn't have to come, and it is also possible to communicate by phone.

The policeman who interacts with Chi Ji works at the police station and has seen many things in the world.

This matter is very special. It is very rare for a stranger like Chi Ji to pay so much medical expenses for a stranger who is not related to him.

The police station was worried that Sun Changxia was not greedy enough, so Lai Shang was worried about harassing Chi Ji.

Lu Changming also felt that this possibility was not impossible, thinking that one more thing would be better than one less thing, and tried his best to avoid letting Chi Ji face the scene of his goodwill being betrayed, and he didn't want him to go.

According to Chi Ji's consistent character, such unnecessary intersections must be avoided as much as possible.

Lu Changming also thought that Chi Ji would choose to decline.

However, when the Haitang District Police Station was not on the way, and it was completely unnecessary, Chi Ji still took the initiative to choose to make this trip.

When Lu Changming asked why in the car, Chi Ji just smiled indifferently, saying that it was just a meeting. Others came all the way, if they really just wanted to thank but couldn't see anyone, they would inevitably return home disappointed.

In this regard, Lu Changming was a little surprised.

Now Chi Ji's state of mind is indeed quite different from when he just returned to China last year.

Back then, when he just wanted Chi Ji to attend Yuan Yuan's wedding together, he was hesitant and hesitant, and he didn't participate in the conversation when he was eating with Mr. Niu, and he was extremely serious every time he spoke to someone.

Now let alone speaking freely in front of acquaintances like Chi Feng and Zhu Jiujiu, he no longer resists dealing with strangers.

Once he thought that most of Chi Ji's optimism and freshness were influenced by himself, Lu Changming felt pink bubbles that smelled of honey in his heart, full of a sense of accomplishment.

"Remember." Chi Ji nodded politely, and asked, "Is your daughter cured?"

"She has congenital heart disease, her condition is complicated, and her treatment is difficult. Last year, her condition was a little bit bad. My father and I went from the town to the city-level hospital to see if there was a better way, but the operation fee couldn't be paid for in a short while. Not to mention, I lost the hospitalization fee.” Sun Changxia sighed, but soon smiled again, “You really helped a lot! My child had an operation in time last year, and he has been in the hospital to take good care of his body after the operation. Very good! Now it is basically the same as a normal child!"

Having said that, Sun Changxia took out a kraft paper envelope from the canvas bag she was carrying and handed it to Chi Ji with both hands.

"At that time, part of the money returned by the medical insurance was spent on imported medicines. Many relatives in the family were farmers like us, and they didn't have much money. Over the years, they gritted their teeth to make up for it. My father and I first took it back to them. I am in debt. You take the money first. Although it is less than one-tenth of what you gave last year, it is somewhat of our kindness, so please be sure to accept it. We will slowly save the rest, and we will definitely be able to pay it back .”

After speaking, Sun Changxia couldn't help wiping away tears again.

However, compared to last year when Chi Ji saw her and cried in despair, this time it was obviously crying with joy at the end of the catastrophe.

Chi Ji looked down at the envelope in front of him, and saw that if it was all in hundred-yuan bills, the thickness would be at least several thousand.

In City S, this may only be the salary of a small white-collar worker in an ordinary company, but for the most ordinary farmer like Sun Changxia, it is really difficult to get it out.

Just now when he learned from the phone that the other party came to find him specially, it was not in Chi Ji's mind that there was no conspiracy theory that he might be entangled.

However, it is precisely because of this sudden thought that his mood at this moment is particularly complicated.

After wiping her tears, Sun Changxia dried her hands on her clothes before picking up the money with both hands and handing it to Chi Ji again, as if she was afraid that her hands would dirty the envelope containing the money.

Lu Changming couldn't help being moved by this detail.

"Auntie, you can take this money first, he is not short of money at all." Lu Changming reached out and pushed the envelope back, his eyes exposed outside the mask narrowed into two arcs, "How old is my daughter?"

If you were talking at this distance, if you were a young man, you would be able to detect Lu Changming's identity even if you were wearing a mask.

But because she didn't pay much attention, Sun Changxia didn't recognize Lu Changming at all.

She can vaguely guess that Chi Ji is a rich man through the fact that she can give 10 yuan to a stranger through a chance encounter.

Those who followed behind him were almost always subordinates.

After spending a few seconds sorting out this information, Sun Changxia did not show any attitude towards Lu Changming's "exceeding his authority", but nodded politely.

"Xu is eight years old, and his birthday is in November this year."

After finishing speaking, Sun Changxia did not take back the envelope in her hand, but still presented it in front of Chi Ji with both hands, and said stubbornly: "Take it, it is more or less a wish from my child's father and me, and you have to pay back your wish to burn incense to the Bodhisattva." Woolen cloth."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Changming inexplicably remembered that he and Chi Ji had argued against Chi Chenglin in the office not long ago.

At that time, the two of them bickered casually, didn't they talk about Journey to the West and Bodhisattvas?

Thinking of this, Lu Changming chuckled, and poked Chi Ji's spine quietly from behind.

The poke didn't matter, Chi Ji instantly thought of what his smile meant just now, turned his head and glared at him angrily, then quickly turned back to face Sun Changxia, and personally raised his hand to push the money back again.

"When the child is growing up, buy her some delicious food to nourish her body, including going to school in the future, which will cost money."

Perhaps it was because Chi Ji mentioned the matter of going to school, and Sun Changxia's expression began to hesitate.

Seeing this, Chi Ji was worried that she would be embarrassed, and continued: "I have already received the wish. The money is really not much for me, so you can take it first. If you are really sorry, when the family becomes rich or the children Pay it back when you grow up and have the ability, leave a phone number, you can find me anytime.”

Speaking of this, Sun Changxia was finally persuaded after thinking about her family situation.

She put the money back into the canvas bag, bowed and nodded to Chi Ji again and again: "Thank you, I really appreciate it, I will definitely let the child go to school well, and come back to repay it when he is promising in the future. Can I ask your name, sir?"

"Chi Ji, rain Qi Ji." Chi Ji said.

"That pond?" Sun Changxia asked again.

"The pool of the pond." Chi Ji replied.

"Okay, I remember." Sun Changxia said silently several times in her heart, then turned her gaze to Lu Changming, thinking that his behavior just now might not be an ordinary subordinate, and asked politely, "Then this gentleman?"

After finishing speaking, Chi Ji turned his head and glanced at Lu Changming.

When Lu Changming received this signal, he was afraid that the other party had heard his name, so he didn't dare to reveal his identity casually, so he replied casually: "My name is Chi Feng, Chi of the pond, Mu Fengfeng."

Listening to him making random arrangements here taking advantage of Chi Feng's low reputation outside the e-sports circle, Chi Ji used two dry coughs to cover up his uncontrollable smile.

It turned out to be two brothers, so I understood.

Sun Changxia understood, and immediately reached out and took out her mobile phone, carefully wrote down Chi Ji's mobile phone number, and carefully saved it in the address book with a note.

Because she was worried about losing her mobile phone, she also sent a text message to her husband, double insurance.

After she saved her mobile phone number, it was almost completely dark outside. Seeing that it was getting late, Chi Ji asked, "Do you have a place to stay in S City?"

"Yes, yes." Sun Changxia put away her phone and nodded, "I've booked a hotel, and I'll just buy a train ticket back to City G tomorrow."

Chi Ji nodded: "Okay, if there is nothing else, we will go home first."

"Okay, okay, I'm really bothering you today, ah yes, wait a minute!"

As she spoke, Sun Changxia hurriedly turned her head, went to someone passing by and asked about it, and came back with something after a while.

Chi Ji took a closer look after she walked in, and found that it was a big basket of bright red strawberries.

Each strawberry is a standard triangle, and the red-pink gradient is very beautiful, and it seems that it has been carefully selected.

If it wasn't packed in such a simple basket, Chi Ji would have suspected that it had just been bought from a boutique fruit supermarket.

"If you don't want the money, just take this strawberry! It's grown in my own shed, it's worthless, don't dislike it, it's very sweet!"

Chi Ji and Lu Changming's eyes lit up at the same time.

"Your family grows strawberries?" Lu Changming couldn't help but speak first: "How big is it?"

Sun Changxia took a short time to calculate: "It's not particularly large-scale, there must be seventy or eighty acres."

Chi Ji looked at a basket of crystal-clear strawberries and didn't care whether they had been washed or not. He picked one up and took a bite, feeling the sweet juice bursting from his mouth, and immediately asked: "Where are your relatives, who also grow strawberries? Are they all of this quality?"

"Basically, strawberries are easy to grow in strange shapes. I specially pick some big and beautiful ones, but those that don't look good are also sweet." Sun Changxia didn't know why they asked this question, but she answered truthfully, "Our village Most of them grow strawberries, and some peanuts. In total, there must be hundreds of acres of contracted land. Now the business is not doing well, and the middlemen make a lot of money. They can sell dozens of dollars in good-looking packaging. A catty, if you are willing to go to the greenhouse to pick it yourself, it only costs about ten yuan per catty. It is a pity that you have suffered from the disadvantages of remote areas, and the cost of oil is expensive, so most people don’t like to come here.”

After speaking, Chi Ji and Lu Changming looked at each other, and saw a similar smile in each other's eyes.
