Chapter 697: Strange Waves
Shen Jiawei mustered up the courage to pick up the cup and drink with Xu Wanqiu, and he found that he didn't put Xu Wanqiu down at all.
Zhang Chi quietly observed the two of them and found that there was still affection between the two, the main reason for their breakup was that Shen Jiawei's personality was too cowardly, and his mother Liang Xiuyuan was too strong, and Xu Wanqiu was also a strong woman after seeing the development trend.
These people don't have much common language, Hong Sicheng is careful when he eats, this meal is naturally not happy, in fact, his original intention of coming over this time is to show off his current salary, but because of this chance encounter, he didn't even have the opportunity to brag.
Zhang Chi didn't mean to stay longer, it was a waste of time to drink with these people, and he was not comfortable staying with others, under the pretext that he had left beforehand.
Because he had drunk, he parked his motorcycle outside the hotel and called a taxi to send him to Dongfang Runyuan.
I went back to my accommodation and slept for a while, and when I got up, I wanted to try the borrowed virtual helmet, and after the helmet was connected and powered, it was being upgraded.
When Zhang Chi was bored, Rui Fu called him, there was basically no problem with Adele's side, and she talked directly to her agent about the appearance fee or something, Rui Fu gave him the contact information, and Zhang Chi transferred the contact information to Shen Jiawei.
Shen Jiawei said thank you after receiving it, and then there was no follow-up.
Zhang Chi hurriedly went back and saw that the helmet upgrade had been completed, and was about to put it on to try the effect, when his phone rang again, and it was Tong Jianjun, Xiao Jiujiu's stepfather.
Zhang Chi actually had no contact with Xiao Jiujiu for a while, and sometimes he thought in his heart, but he also knew that it was best to keep a distance between himself and Xiao Jiujiu, worrying about affecting Xiao Jiujiu's star journey was one reason, and another reason was that Xiao Jiujiu's emotional outlook was very strange, with the attitude of not seeking results and wanting to develop an underground relationship with himself, it is said that such a beautiful girl likes herself and does not lose, but the problem is that Zhang Chi always feels that she is a little neurotic.
Ye Ximei is very rational in this regard, although she and herself already have that relationship, but they all keep a proper distance from each other, Ye Ximei knows what she wants, and she never involves the emotional aspect, let alone affects herself and Qi Bing, Zhang Daxian sometimes feels that he is really a bit of a scum, but his body is so good, Qi Bing is afraid of him, the conditions here are so good, Qi Bing will not come over every day, and he has to go to the girls' dormitory every few days to hide, Zhang Daxian knew that she was going to the dormitory to rest and recuperateγ
Zhang Chi was very polite on the phone, after all, he was Xiao Jiujiu's elder.
Tong Jianjun invited Zhang Chi to his home as a guest on the phone, and said that Xiao Jiujiu's mother Chen Yuting invited him over and let him go over at night.
Zhang Chi looked at the time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was a bit abrupt to invite someone over for dinner at this point, and Tong Jianjun also asked him to come over, Zhang Chi was not easy to refuse because of his face. I wanted to talk to Qi Bing, but Qi Bing called back first, saying that she was going to go shopping with Xu Wanqiu at night, so she lived in the school dormitory.
Zhang Daxian understood as soon as he heard it, Qi Bing hung up the battle exemption card again, and she really had to exercise her body, although she was demoted to the mortal, but recently this true fire refining body has reached the double realm, and all parts of the body have improved significantly, she is too powerful, anyway, Qi Bing and Ye Ximei both said so.
Zhang Chi went to buy some gifts first, and then went to Wenming Lane, knocked on the door of Tong Jianjun's house, Tong Jianjun came over to open the door wearing an apron, and said with a smile: "Come in quickly, your Aunt Chen is waiting." β
Zhang Chi handed the fruit in his hand to Tong Jianjun, and he also brought two bottles of Feitian Moutai, which has never been used to coming to the door empty-handed.
Tong Jianjun said: "You can come here, and buy something." β
Zhang Chi said: "I didn't buy anything, these two bottles of wine were given to me by others, let's try them." β
Tong Jianjun nodded, and led Zhang Chi to the restaurant, although it was only November, the heating in the room had been turned on, and it was very comfortable, Chen Yuting sat quietly by the sea of tea.
Zhang Chi greeted politely: "Aunt Chen, hello!"
Chen Yuting smiled and said, "Sit down, drink some tea first." β
Tong Jianjun said: "You talk, I'll go cook first." β
Zhang Chi sat down opposite Chen Yuting.
Chen Yuting said while making tea: "Actually, I wanted to invite you over a while ago, but I couldn't get in touch." β
Zhang Chi said: "I just went out for internship in the first two months, and it has been turned off according to school regulations. β
Chen Yuting said: "Didn't contact Jiujiu?"
Zhang Chi nodded: "No." β
Chen Yuting handed Zhang Chi a cup of tea, Zhang Chi took it and drank it, Qi Hong. However, when I took the teacup, I noticed that Chen Yuting had a set of band-aids on the inside of her left wrist.
Zhang Chi took a sip of tea and said, "Auntie, how are you doing lately?"
Chen Yuting shook her head, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip and said, "It's not good, my mental condition is not very good." His left wrist flipped and said to Zhang Chi: "I went to the hospital a few days ago." β
Zhang Chi said: "It's getting colder, Auntie pay more attention to your body." β
Chen Yuting said: "I mainly have mental problems, and I went to the hospital because I cut my pulse. β
Zhang Daxian was a little hairy in his heart, what did Chen Yuting mean? It was clear that she was telling herself that she was mentally ill.
Chen Yuting smiled at Zhang Chi and said, "You don't have to worry, I don't have anything to do now." β
Zhang Chi said: "Aunt Chen should go out for a walk often, and mood adjustment is very important." β
Chen Yuting said: "My disease has nothing to do with mood regulation, it is inherited from family. β
Zhang Chi felt bad when he heard this, he couldn't help but think of Xiao Jiujiu, Xiao Jiujiu's behavior was also very neurotic, could it be that Chen Yuting passed on her mental problems to Xiao Jiujiu, oh my God!
Tong Jianjun walked in with the dishes: "It's time to eat!"
Tong Jianjun's cooking skills have nothing to say, although they are all home-cooked, but this home-cooked taste is exactly what the restaurant can't make.
Because of Chen Yuting's previous words, Zhang Daxian's mood became a little heavy, Chen Yuting only ate a small bowl of rice porridge at night, and then asked Tong Jianjun to send her to the study, saying that he didn't want to affect the wine of the two of them.
Although it was not the first time Zhang Chi came to the door, he was still a little restrained, and he didn't plan to drink happily, but Tong Jianjun was in high spirits and raised his glass frequently.
Zhang Chi said: "Uncle Tong, my stomach has not been very upset recently, and I can't drink too much wine. β
"That's it!" Tong Jianjun put down his wine glass: "I heard that you have opened a hotel, and you must pay attention to your body when you are engaged in the catering industry." β
Zhang Chi nodded.
Tong Jianjun said: "You can drink as much as you want, let's chat." β
Zhang Chi said: "Is there something you are looking for me?"
Tong Jianjun sighed and said: "I shouldn't have said it, or because of Jiujiu, your Aunt Chen hasn't seen her for a long time, as long as there are Jiujiu programs on TV on weekdays, she won't miss any of them, maybe the more I watch it, the more I miss it, I watched a movie of Jiujiu a few days ago and somehow suddenly got stimulated, but fortunately I found out that I sent her to the hospital in time." β
Zhang Chi said, "How long has Aunt Chen been in this condition?"
"It's been years. β
"Does Xiao Jiujiu know?"
Tong Jianjun said: "Your Aunt Chen loves this daughter very much in her heart, I originally wanted to inform Jiujiu, but she didn't agree to anything, worried that it would affect Jiujiu's career, but I know that she wants to see Jiujiu." β
Zhang Chi already understood what Tong Jianjun meant: "Uncle Tong, do you want me to tell Jiujiu about these things?"
Tong Jianjun sighed and said: "I know it's a little presumptuous, but your Aunt Chen's mental condition is very poor, and now she has insomnia all night long, the doctor said that her condition is not optimistic, and she doesn't know when she will lose control of her spirit, and now the only thing that can comfort her is Jiujiu, you see......"
Zhang Chi said: "Uncle Tong, is Aunt Chen mentally ......?"
Tong Jianjun said: "Yes, she has a hereditary disease, so she is very worried about Jiujiu." β
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "That's it, I'll find a chance to talk to Jiujiu." β
Tong Jianjun said: "Don't be reluctant. β
Although Tong Jianjun's cooking skills are excellent, Zhang Daxian was very depressed at this meal, and he left after staying at their house for less than two hours, Tong Jianjun and his family did not leave him, Chen Yuting's recent mental state was unstable, and Tong Jianjun did not dare to send it far, so he went back at the door.
Zhang Chi walked a few steps into the alley, and came to the place where he met Xiao Jiujiu for the first time, at that time he had just come to the capital, and he and Xiao Jiujiu staged a story of not knowing each other, looking up at the camera, I don't know if the camera has been repaired.
Not far in front of Qin Lao's house, thinking of Qin Lao, who had disappeared for some reason, Zhang Chi had a plan to go out and have a look, came to the door of Qin's house, leaned into the crack of the door and looked inside, and found that there was actually a light inside.
Zhang Chi was a little curious in his heart, could it be that Old Qin was back? The old man didn't say a word when he came back? Zhang Chi hesitated for a moment before ringing the doorbell.
After a while, no one opened the door, and when Zhang Chi was about to leave, the door creaked, and he turned to look, but it was the nanny Xu Cuihua who leaned out from inside, and saw Zhang Chi surprised and said, "Xiao Zhang, when did you come over?"
"Hello Aunt Xu, I passed by, did I stop by to see if Old Qin was back?"
Xu Cuihua shook her head.
Zhang Chi heard that Qin Lao had not come back yet, he was a little disappointed in his heart, he had no intention of going in, and when he was about to say goodbye and leave, he suddenly heard an indifferent voice from inside: "Zhang Chi, let him in!"
Zhang Chi heard that it was Qin Junqing who was talking, no wonder there was a light inside, it turned out that she was going home, after all, she was Qin Lao's daughter, and it was normal for people to go home. Hearing Qin Junqing's call, Zhang Chi still decided to go in and say hello, since the last time he saw the video of her and Chu Canghai teaming up to kill Lin Chaolong, he felt more and more that this girl was not a good person.
Thinking of Qin Lao, who had been missing for several months, Qin Luzhu who was still in the Netherworld, Zhang Chi secretly sighed in his heart, one day when he was outside, a month had passed in the Netherworld, and it would be almost a month since he came back, counting Qin Luzhu's two and a half years in the Netherworld, how lonely she was.
After Zhang Chi came back this time, he became a little emotional, and when he walked into Qin's house, Xu Cuihua pointed to the room with the lights on, which was Qin Lao's study in the past, and motioned for him to go over.
Zhang Chi came to the study, knocked on the door, and heard Qin Junqing inside: "The door is not locked, you just come in." β
Zhang Chi heard Qin Junqing's words outside the gate just now, and she was at least twenty meters away from Qin Junqing just now, which showed that she cultivated deeply.
Zhang Chi pushed the door and walked in, and saw Qin Junqing sitting at the desk reading a book, Zhang Chi grinned and said, "Senior aunt, it turns out that you are here." β
Qin Junqing put down the book in his hand and said, "I have to come back and take a look." His eyes looked at Zhang Chi: "I thought you wouldn't be able to come back." β
Zhang Chi said: "I don't understand what my aunt said. β
Qin Junqing said: "I really don't understand or pretend not to understand?" glanced at the Taishi chair on the side and said, "Sit down." β
Zhang Chi said: "Young and old, I don't dare to sit in front of you." β
Qin Junqing said: "I am too vigilant, I am worried that I will be unfavorable to you." β
Zhang Chi said: "That's not it, my aunt won't harm anyone and her nephew." β
Seeing that he didn't want to sit, Qin Junqing could only let him, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip and said, "It was rumored a while ago that you suffered a plane crash. β
Zhang Chi said: "I don't know, I'm confused until now, I was with Chu Jianghe, and when I came to my senses, he was picked up by his Lao Tzu, I didn't have that blessing, and I was locked up for several days." β
Qin Junqing said: "Your luck is always very good. β
Zhang Chi said: "Where did the old man go?"
Qin Junqing shook his head.
"Where's Sister Luzhu?"
Qin Junqing stared at Zhang Chi's eyes and said, "You haven't seen her?"
Zhang Chi was stunned in his heart, what did Qin Junqing mean? Could it be that she had already heard about the Netherworld Ruins? Impossible, only He Donglai, Chu Jianghe and himself really knew the internal situation of the Netherworld, He Donglai was nowhere to be found, even if he met Qin Junqing, he would not leak any news, Zhang Chi absolutely believed in him in this regard, and he did not mention the matter of Netherworld Ruins to anyone. Now the only possibility left is Chu Jianghe, could it be that Chu Jianghe's amnesia is also an illusion?
This thing has rarely been in contact with him since he came back, and when they were in the Netherworld, they could be regarded as sharing weal and woe, but at one time and another.
Zhang Chi shook his head and said, "Sister Luzhu once met with me before leaving, and she said that she would go out for three years. β
Qin Junqing said softly: "Three years!" There was not the slightest wave in her expression.
Zhang Chi said deliberately: "She is your daughter, don't you miss her at all, don't you worry about her at all?"
"The child is not a mother, Luzhu has always been self-reliant, she has her own ideas, I believe in her ability. β
Zhang Chi didn't want to talk too much with people like Qin Junqing, this woman was too cold, and said with a smile: "Senior aunt, it's not too early, I won't delay your rest." β
Qin Junqing said: "Don't worry, why did you come to Civilization Lane tonight?"
Zhang Chi smiled: "Passing by." β
Qin Junqing had already smelled the smell of wine on Zhang Chi when he entered the door: "Have you gone to Chen Yuting's house for dinner?"
Zhang Chi secretly admired her reasoning ability, it was a pity not to be a detective if she was so powerful, Zhang Chi said: "Uncle Tong called me to eat." β
Qin Junqing said: "Let me guess, Chen Yuting committed suicide by cutting her wrists a few days ago, and his invitation to you to dinner should be related to this matter, the only connection between you and them is Xiao Jiujiu, if I guess correctly, Tong Jianjun wants you to help coordinate the relationship between their mother and daughter." β
Zhang Chi sat down on the Taishi chair, it was really tiring to talk to a smart woman like Qin Junqing.
Qin Junqing said, "You're not leaving?"
Zhang Chi said: "You let me go?"
Qin Junqing said, "Do you want to know where you went?"
"Senior aunt, I'm stupid and can't keep up with your thinking, so it's better for you to talk to me simply. β
"You're not stupid at all, and you're smart. β
Qin Junqing stood up and slowly walked around behind Zhang Chi, Zhang Daxian was a little nervous, what kind of character is Qin Junqing, if this woman has bad intentions towards herself and gives herself a knife from behind, I am afraid that she will not even have a chance to backhand, but Qin Junqing will not use such a means on herself.
Qin Junqing put his hands on Zhang Chi's shoulders, Zhang Daxian's heart was furious, what do you want to do with this girl? Could it be that you have taken a fancy to your appearance? This is not possible, I am also principled.
Qin Junqing lowered his head and took a deep breath and said, "Have you ever heard of the mother-son connection?"
Zhang Chi said calmly: "I'm sorry, my mother died a long time ago." β
Qin Junqing sneered and said, "I can feel the breath of green bamboo, as long as I have close contact with her, I will definitely be able to smell it." β
Zhang Daxian was shocked in his heart, he and Qin Luzhu had played ambiguously in the Netherworld, hugged and kissed, and slept in the dark ruins, but the last line of defense has never broken through, she can smell the smell of Qin Luzhu on her body? The dog's nose is not so smart? What's more, it's been a month since I came back, and I've been washing and rubbing countless times, and there are several women who have been in close contact, who are you fooling? This girl is lying to me!
Zhang Chi sneered: "You're really amazing, it's been almost half a year since we last eat, and you can still smell it?"
Qin Junqing whispered three words: "Netherworld Ruins!" After speaking, she let go of Zhang Chi, then returned to her seat and sat down, staring at Zhang Chi with both eyes, observing the change in his expression.
Zhang Chi looked at her with a confused expression: "Where is it?"
Qin Junqing said: "You really have a way of pretending to be stupid. β
"Senior aunt, you are the first to say this about me, and others say that I am pretending!"
Qin Junqing knew that he was deliberately provoking himself, and said softly: "Anything that happens in this world is traceable, don't think I'm cheating you, although I don't know you, but the person who can make my father and Xie Zhongjun value so much is definitely not ordinary, not to mention that you can also refine the pill, and Huang Xichen's Great Dao Dan Sutra has also fallen into your hands." β
Zhang Chixin said what bullshit Dao Danjing, I really don't like it, even if Huang Xichen is alive on the Dan Dao, it is impossible for him to surpass himself.
"Auntie, I find that you pay more attention to me than you do to your own daughter. β
Qin Junqing said: "You are wary of me, do you think that I will harm you all the time?" In fact, you can rest assured that I have no conflict of interest with you, on the contrary, there is still the possibility of cooperation between you and me. β
Zhang Chi smiled and said: "Thanks to my aunt's mistaken love, I have mastered a little alchemy, at best, I am refining a few third-grade golden pills, which is actually of little use to my aunt." "I guessed in my heart that Qin Junqing wanted to let her help her with alchemy, and this woman was very realistic.
Qin Junqing said: "Since you call me Senior Aunt, I might as well give you a word of advice." β
"Listen up!"
"Don't take other people for fools, although the Secret Bureau has a habit of erasing other people's memories, it can be erased and restored, just like deleting files on a hard drive. β
Zhang Chi felt more and more that Qin Junqing was hinting at himself, could the problem really lie with Chu Jianghe, if this kid also kept the memory of the Netherworld Ruins like himself, it would be troublesome. He said deliberately: "Are you saying that Chu Jianghe knows what happened?"
Qin Junqing said: "You should ask him what he knows." β
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "What kind of cooperation is the senior aunt talking about?"
Qin Junqing said: "Of course you know that you are so smart. She was not in a hurry to make her request, and smiled lightly: "You go back first, come to me when you figure it out, and go to Shuiyue Nunnery next time you look for me." β
Zhang Chi got up and said goodbye to Qin Junqing.
Leaving the Qin family, Zhang Chi left Wenming Lane quickly, he didn't go home immediately, and took a taxi to Shangrouyuan, and after coming back, things came out one after another, and even Wang Meng, this kid, came out to make trouble.
When he came to Shangrouyuan, he saw Wang Meng wearing a security uniform and directing the vehicle, but this kid was dutiful and stood on the last shift of the revolution.
Zhang Chi looked at him from afar, wondering in his heart why Wang Meng ran away before, who he had met, and what he must have heard. Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Bai Mi walking in with a backpack, she had just rushed back to the capital, and she came to Shangrouyuan without stopping.
Zhang Chi beckoned to her, signaling her not to disturb Wang Meng's work.
Bai Xiaomi stood beside Zhang Chi, looked at Wang Meng in the distance, and whispered, "Why does he have such a good temper and suddenly want to leave?"
Zhang Chi clearly complained about himself when he heard her words: "He eats well and lives well in my place, and all the employees spoil him, why do you want to go, you should find the reason from the root." β
Bai Mi bit her lip, knowing what he meant at the root.
Zhang Chi said: "Your family is such a good person, if you really care about him, ask the reason as soon as possible, don't let this child be cheated." β
"What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting, I'm worried that someone is fooling this kid under the banner of his relatives, and if he really follows the bad guys, it won't be long before he learns badly. β
Obedient and listening, Bai Xiaomi heard that Zhang Chi seemed to know her relationship with Wang Meng.
Bai Xiaomi said: "Don't worry, I'll figure it out." β
Zhang Chi said: "I just look at him pitiful, but it has nothing to do with me." Looking at Bai Xiaomi, he said, "You won't even pit your own family, right?"
"No one speaks, when you're dumb. Bai Mi couldn't help but go back.
Zhang Chi laughed, feeling that Bai Mi has become more and more beautiful recently, he couldn't help but glance at her chest and praised: "It's big!"
Bai Xiaoqiao's face flushed, and she took a step back in fear, for fear that she would measure it with her hands after this stinky and shameless visual inspection, and since this guy came back, she obviously had a strong aggression towards herself, and she must be more vigilant.
