why are they still in love

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zhaoshan went to the study alone, sat in the swivel chair Xiao Chining picked, leaned on the neck pillow Xiao Chining bought, covered his eyes with his forearm, and thought about what to do next.

Chi Yan's company was completely besieged, and the situation in the gallery can also be imagined, which is almost the same as what Chi Yan said.

Yue Zezhang's method of beating back was clever. In one afternoon, he had already portrayed himself as the victim, and pushed all the suspicions to Xiao Zhaoshan, who had "bitten others if he failed to cooperate".

It was Xiao Zhaoshan who made false accounts, it was Xiao Zhaoshan who drove up the price of artworks, it was Xiao Zhaoshan who made money with malicious marketing, and it was Xiao Zhaoshan who drove people to nowhere.

At the same time, so-called insiders disclosed the gallery's "true" account details.

In addition to the well-known "231 million" on the Internet, the book shows that many young painters' consigned works in galleries also went into Xiao Zhaoshan's pocket, and the amount did not meet the share stipulated in the consignment contract.

In this way, Yue Zezhang added another charge of infringing on other people's property.

Qu Cheng's role was vividly reflected, and Xiao Zhaoshan was not surprised by the existence of the ledger, which was stamped with the company's official seal, but he, the boss, had never heard of it.He wholeheartedly waited for Yue Zezhang to speak more fully, to the point where the water would be hard to recover and the city would be flooded.

But the employees didn't know his plan, and they were worried and found it difficult to continue working.Xiao Zhaoshan simply posted the template of the resignation form in the WeChat group, giving those who are temporarily on the sidelines a week off, and giving those who want to leave the opportunity to leave immediately.

After expressing his sincerity, he specifically reminded all employees to pay attention to personal safety, not to accept any interviews, and not to express any opinions on the Internet.After all, if you fight against Yue Zezhang, if you make the slightest mistake, you will lose everything.

He took some effort to settle the people in the gallery, and explained part of the truth to Lu Mei alone, and dinner was ready.

Xiao Chining came to knock on the door, Xiao Zhaoshan quietly took out a small thing from the deep drawer of the bookcase and put it at his feet, and sat upright waiting for him to push the door in.

But Xiao Chining, who used to knock on the door twice symbolically, would definitely go straight into the room to see what he was up to, did not do so today.The door rang twice, no more, no less.

Not even the phrase "Dad, I'm out for dinner" that is the most frequently seen.

From this, Xiao Zhaoshan understood that Xiao Chining was not without anger.

He hid his things behind his back and walked out of the study. Xiao Chining was serving dinner in the kitchen, so he couldn't see his small movements.

Xiao Zhaoshan sat at the dining table and thought about it, and decided that it would be most appropriate to apologize before eating, because a bad mood while eating would affect digestion.Xiao Chining's gastrointestinal function is not good.

He found a topic that was close at hand: "I made sweet and sour short ribs again today?"

Xiao Chining came out of the kitchen with two bowls of rice, without even looking at him: "Don't you like sweet and sour food?"

Xiao Zhaoshan carefully took the things out from the gap between his body and the back of the chair, and put them on his lap: "You don't have to take care of my taste all the time, you can eat whatever you like."

Xiao Chining picked up a chopstick and vinegared the cabbage, and took two bites with the rice: "I like to eat people."

Xiao Chining loves to choke people with his words when he gets into an awkward situation. This is Xiao Chining's usual routine. Xiao Zhaoshan has been bullied too many times, and he actually figured out from it the childish and cuteness of "I can't beat you, can I still say I can't beat you", not Feel aggressive.

"Which kind of person do you like to eat?" He asked with a smile.

Xiao Chining swallowed the rice, squinted at him, and pointed out: "The kind of old man who hides a knife in his smile, is cunning, and slaps people at every turn, it's good to use stew to nourish his body."

Xiao Zhaoshan suddenly realized: "Oh, you said Yue Zezhang."

"... Yue your mother's chapter." Xiao Chining has never seen such a blind person!

Xiao Zhaoshan picked a piece of pork ribs for him and reminded him: "My mother is your own grandma."

"Yue Chi's mother's chapter."

"That's your grandma."

Xiao Chining slapped his chopsticks on the table and yelled at him: "Do you believe it or not? I'm going back to Hangzhou with the old man tomorrow?"

Xiao Zhaoshan stopped teasing him: "Trust me. You haven't told me what kind of food you like to eat. I'll learn how to cook it for you some other day."

"I don't like to eat anything, as long as I can maintain my vital signs."

Xiao Chining spoke the truth.He has never had much appetite, and satisfying his taste buds is just an extra burden in life for him. Cooking Xiao Zhaoshan's favorite dishes brings him far more satisfaction than tasting the delicious food himself.

"Do you have any gadgets you like? Other than skateboards." Xiao Zhaoshan's purpose of currying favor has been clearly revealed.

It's a pity that Xiao Chining still said: "No."

"Is there any singer you like? I'll find a way to help you buy tickets for the front row of the concert."

"No."

"Do you have a favorite artist?"

"No."

Xiao Zhaoshan frowned: "I don't count?"

Xiao Chining deliberately belittled him: "You only painted "Moon Night in the Forest" so that it can barely be seen."

Xiao Zhaoshan held his chopsticks to express his agreement: "Mr. Xiao is very right. Do you have a favorite color?"

Xiao Chining ate the vegetables with his eyes downcast, and answered without hesitation: "Green."

"Do you have a favorite brand?"

"MUJI."

Xiao Zhaoshan put down his chopsticks as he spoke, and put the things on his lap on the dining table: "Does MUJI sell watches? I haven't shopped."

"Of course it's sold, our generation gap is so..."

However, when Xiao Chining raised his head and saw the rainbow packaging box of Casio MTG series limited edition in front of him, the words "the generation gap is too big" could no longer be uttered.

"Fuck... what is this?" He was a little confused.

"You don't know? You shouldn't." Xiao Zhaoshan opened the box and took out a brand new watch, "Hand over here."

Xiao Chining looked at the watch whose color matched the laser light, then looked at Xiao Zhaoshan, and handed out his left hand suspiciously.

"I heard from your godmother that this brand is very popular among children of your age, especially boys."

Xiao Zhaoshan put the watch on for him, then held his hand and looked at it: "Well, it seems to be good, you are white and match you."

At first, Xiao Chining felt that this watch was too coquettish and did not conform to his usual dressing style, but after he really got started with it, he realized the brilliance of this watch.

Thick strap, gradient multi-color case, large-diameter glass dial, mechanical style, sports style and nightclub style are superimposed, not only does not look cumbersome, but it makes the skin whiter and the forearm lines smoother.

"I bought it at the beginning of December last year. At that time, I didn't know you liked Muyin." Xiao Zhaoshan rubbed the skin on the back of his hand and said, "Fortunately, I hit a green one."

Xiao Chining caressed the dial, was speechless for a while, and suddenly muttered in a soft voice: "It's fancy."

The love and joy in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Where is the gaudy thing? Isn't this the green you like?" Xiao Zhaoshan turned his wrist with him, "Look, the light is different, and the refracted light is also different. It's quite special."

"That's it." Xiao Chining pulled his hand back to appreciate it for himself, not letting him continue to fumble, "How much did it cost?"

"A few thousand yuan." Xiao Zhaoshan replied.

"Hey, thousands of dollars." Xiao Chining raised his eyes and pretended to be angry, "Will you buy tens of millions of watches for Chi Yan, but only a few thousand for me? Don't be so obvious when old things are treated differently. "

Xiao Zhaoshan was wronged: "You don't need to go out to show your face, you need a high-end watch to support the show, the style is suitable and the quality is good enough?"

Xiao Chining stared: "Didn't I show my face when I went out to buy vegetables?!"

Xiao Zhaoshan sneered: "Why, are you planning to show off your watch to the vegetable seller?"

"Can't you? I'm happy!" Xiao Chining wanted to yell at him, "If I meet a disrespectful old man and old woman to buy vegetables and jump in line, I can also throw millions of watches in their face and make them get out of the way go."

"Is there someone who ruins things like you?" Xiao Zhaoshan pinched his cheek, "Eat more and dream less."

Xiao Chining hooked his head and continued to appreciate the new watch on his left wrist: "Father, tell me the truth, did Yue Zezhang drain your little coffers?"

Xiao Zhaoshan put the packing box aside and picked up the bowl again: "My money is also earned little by little, not by the strong wind."

"Oh, then when you sell the gallery, will we starve to death abroad?" Xiao Chining asked absently.

"It's more than enough to support you." Xiao Zhaoshan saw that he was still turning to look at the refraction, and quickly pulled his hand down and pressed it on the table, "Don't look, eat quickly."

It was the first time in Xiao Chining's life that he received a gift other than a skateboard. The treasure was tight, so he clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction: "Be gentle! If you break it, will you pay for it!"

Although it is something to be happy for a carefully selected gift to be recognized by the recipient, Xiao Zhaoshan still feels that his position in Xiao Chining's heart has slipped by at least a large amount in an instant.

"Sure enough, you should wait until New Year's Eve to take it out, otherwise I think you will be smug until next year."

Xiao Chining picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and said happily: "Blame yourself, you insist on messing with me."

"When will I—"

Xiao Zhaoshan was only halfway through speaking when the phone rang.

Familiar ringtone, familiar time and place, familiar caller number.

While answering the phone, he looked at Xiao Chining who came over with reproachful eyes, and silently scolded him with crow's mouth.

With so many things happening during the day, Yue Zezhang, who was thousands of miles away, was still smiling and asked him if he had eaten.

Xiao Zhaoshan didn't need to deal with him anymore, and replied coldly: "I'm eating, so you'd better make a long story short."

Yue Zezhang sighed disapprovingly: "I want to talk to you, Zhaoshan, too long, and I really can't make it short."

Xiao Chining stared at Xiao Zhaoshan, and asked him softly what Yue Zezhang said.Xiao Zhaoshan put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl, and mouthed: "Eat your meal!"

He put down his chopsticks and listened to the phone with the other ear: "Then Mr. Yue, don't talk about it, I just don't really want to hear it."

Yue Zezhang said: "Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of visiting France to spend more time with Fu Yuan and my newborn grandson, but thanks to you, I have to go back to China for investigation tomorrow."

Xiao Zhaoshan didn't know that some people couldn't stand it anymore, and he was going to do some rectification to appease the anger of the people.

"Really, congratulations."

With a calm tone, he picked up a chopstick of vegetables for Xiao Chining, but Xiao Chining blocked him like holding a bowl to protect the food.

Yue Zezhang sat down on the sofa in the study room, picked up Xiao Chining's materials and looked at them: "You gave me such a big New Year's gift unexpectedly, I, as an elder, can't help but express it."

"But I'm old and I can't think of any new ideas, so I have to make an old gift in the same way." He put down the materials in his hand and said darkly, "Zhaoshan, hurry up, my gift should be on the way."

Xiao Zhaoshan frowned, his body tensed up immediately.

If you guessed right, this so-called old gift is——

Ding dong.

Doorbell rang.

Xiao Zhaoshan turned his head to look in the direction of the door.

Boom boom, boom boom.

The people outside knocked on the door instead, louder and louder, for fear that the whole community would not be able to hear it.

"Hey, it's faster than I expected." Yue Zezhang on the other end of the phone laughed again when he heard the deafening knock on the door, "Zhaoshan, hurry up and check the gifts, it took me a lot of time, don't waste it .”

Seeing Xiao Zhaoshan's expression was wrong, Xiao Chining also became nervous: "Father..."

"Don't move." Xiao Zhaoshan got up from the chair, took the phone that had been hung up and went to open the door alone.

It was so lively, four male police officers stood straight in two rows in the narrow aisle outside the door, and the police badges on their caps and shoulders shone brightly under the dim light.

The leader saw that he was in person, so he took out his police officer card from his pocket and waved it in front of his eyes: "We are policemen from the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau. Now we have received a report from the masses. We suspect that you have been involved in defamation."

He took another piece of paper from his colleague and showed it to him: "This is the notice of filing a case. Please come back with us to the bureau for investigation."

Xiao Chining came to the door at some point. Hearing the words, he immediately choked, "Who did my dad slander? Show me the evidence?"

Xiao Zhaoshan was very calm on the contrary, he turned his head to appease Xiao Chining: "It's okay, you go to eat."

After Xiao Chining reluctantly sat back at the dining table, he said to the police outside the door: "Sorry, can I finish dinner with my son?"

He smiled easily: "No matter how big an investigation is, it won't take 10 minutes, right?"

At the same time, Yue Zezhang's personal assistant also knocked on the door of Yue Zezhang's study: "Boss Yue, your luggage is packed."

The person at the door said in a deep voice, "Come in, I have something to explain."

Private Assistant opened the door, walked to the sofa, and asked respectfully, "Mr. Yue, is there anything I can do?"

Yue Zezhang picked up his teacup and raised his chin towards the materials on the table: "Find someone to watch him after returning home."

The private assistant glanced sideways at the boy's ID photo on the paper, nodded and said, "Yes."

Yue Zezhang took a sip of his tea, sneered and said to whomever he was talking about: "Second time, this is the second time. How can it be done without a second gift."
