Zhou Niannian carried his things to the Tianqiao Investigation Institute, and when he asked, he learned that Li Dongxing had something at home temporarily, so he went home.

After hearing that Li Dongxing lived in an alley not far from the neighborhood, Zhou Niannian looked for it.

As soon as he turned into the alley, a small figure suddenly appeared from the alley, Zhou Niannian couldn't dodge, and the small figure directly knocked into Zhou Niannian's arms.

She staggered against the wall before she could stand on her feet.

Looking down, she saw that what had fallen into her arms was a little boy of about five or six years old, black and thin, with some big clothes on his body, and his fat body was swaying straight on his body.

The boy's dark eyes blinked, he stood up straight and looked up at Zhou Niannian, the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, as if he was a little overwhelmed by the fact that he suddenly bumped into someone.

"Li Yingjie, you stop for me. A man ran out of the alley and ran over with a loud roar.

When the boy heard the voice, he ran straight out, but was suddenly grabbed by the collar.

Li Dongxing ran to find Zhou Niannian standing at the mouth of the alley, only to see her holding a snack in one hand and her son's collar with the other, and stood a little embarrassed, "Comrade Zhou, why are you here?"

Zhou Niannian smiled, "I asked Brother Li for something, I went to your unit and said that you came back for something." ”

She tilted her head and gestured to the little boy who was struggling desperately in her hand, "Brother Li, is this your son?"

Li Dongxing reacted, stepped forward and picked up the little boy, and shouted with a dark face, "Li Yingjie, what are you running?

"Say, why do you fight with other people? Is the kung fu I teach you on weekdays for you to use to fight?"

Li Yingjie stiffened his neck and glared at Li Dongxing stubbornly, "It was Erdan who scolded me first, he said that I didn't have a mother, I was a wild seed, I told him that my mother went to a far away place to earn money, so I am not a wild seed." ”

"He didn't believe it, he kept calling me wild seed, and I beat him, he was bad, he did wrong. ”

He looked at Li Dongxing stubbornly with his small head up, and tears flashed faintly in his eyes, "Dad, didn't you say that my mother went to a far away place to earn money, when will she come back?"

"I don't want her to make money, can you let her come back?"

Li Dongxing's hand holding his son's collar stiffened, and a thick sadness flashed in his eyes, and he nodded in a dumb voice for a long time, "Okay, I'll write to your mother." ”

Li Yingjie sniffed and smiled happily, "Well, then I'll go back to school and apologize to Erdan." ”

Li Dongxing pursed the corners of his mouth, rubbed his son's hair, and hummed softly.

Turning his head to look at Zhou Niannian who was standing at the mouth of the alley, his expression was a little unnatural, "Let you see the joke." ”

Zhou Niannian felt a little embarrassed when she heard about other people's housework, she squatted down and shook the snack in her hand at Li Yingjie, "Your name is Yingjie, isn't it?

Li Yingjie turned his head to look at his father, then turned his head to look at the snack in Zhou Niannian's hand, and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but did not say what he wanted to eat.

Li Dongxing saw the things she was carrying in her hands and raised her eyebrows, "Why are you still carrying things?"

Zhou Niannian chuckled, "Come to Brother Li to inquire about things, naturally you have to please first." ”

Li Dongxing laughed.

The awkward atmosphere in the air suddenly dissipated.

He stretched out his hand to take the things in Zhou Niannian's hand, "Then I'll take this sugar-coated cannonball, you wait for me, I'll send the child to preschool first, let's go back to the institute together." ”

Zhou Niannian nodded and waited for Li Dongxing at the mouth of the alley.

Li Yingjie went to preschool not far away, and Li Dongxing put his things home, sent the children back to school, and soon returned.

"I made you laugh just now, Yingjie, this kid is too skinny. ”

Zhou Niannian smiled, "No, Brother Li taught the child very well." ”

The two men walked side by side in the direction of the investigation office.

Li Dongxing sighed deeply, "This child has been carried by me alone since he was a child, and it is inevitable that he will be a little skinny, his mother."

Speaking of this, he paused, and then whispered, "His mother had a serious illness when he was less than a year old, and it was gone, and I was afraid that the child would be sad, so I always lied to him that his mother went to a far away place to earn money." ”

A touch of pathos could not help but appear on his face.

When Zhou Niannian heard the conversation between Li Dongxing and Li Yingjie just now, she had a general guess in her heart, and when she heard Li Dongxing say it in person, she was surprised and a little embarrassed at the same time, she didn't know how to comfort others.

"You have brought the child very well, I believe that my sister-in-law will be very pleased to see it in heaven. She was silent for a moment and whispered.

Li Dongxing glanced at her and smiled calmly, "I've already thought about it, you don't have to comfort me, hey, it's time to go in, let's go in and talk." ”

Zhou Niannian looked up, and sure enough, when he arrived at the Tianqiao Investigation Institute, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As soon as the two entered the investigation office, a colleague of Li Dongxing came over and said, "Captain, someone has come to bail Bai Yongli and his wife." ”

"So fast?" Li Dongxing raised his eyebrows in a depressed manner, "Didn't you say that the two of them don't have any relatives in Kyoto?"

Li Dongxing's colleague shrugged, "The person who came said it was Bai Yongli's younger brother." ”

"I'll go over and take a look, you can sit down for a while. Li Dongxing nodded at Zhou Niannian and left.

Zhou Niannian sat and waited in Li Dongxing's office.

When Bai Yongli and his wife were released, seeing the people standing outside, Zhang Cuihua couldn't help but complain, "Second brother, fortunately you are here, otherwise your brother and I will definitely be locked up for many days, and the Zhou family, which lacks morality, is too ruthless to call someone to arrest us." ”

Bai Yongsheng whispered impatiently, "That's why you are too greedy, you want so much money, and people don't arrest you and who you catch." ”

After that, he turned his head and asked Bai Yongli, "I didn't beat you, did you?"

Bai Yongli shook his head, "No, it's just that she kept interrogating us, and asked us to confront Yuqing, that dead girl actually bit us back, this dead girl was really raised for nothing, I knew this, I should have let you deal with it back then"

"Brother, what nonsense. Bai Yongsheng glared at him angrily, "You and your sister-in-law go out first, I'll sign and leave." ”

Bai Yongli has always been afraid of his younger brother, he has been walking outside all these years, and the anger on his body has become heavier and heavier, seeing his younger brother staring at him, he shrunk his neck, pulled Zhang Cuihua and hurriedly walked out.

Bai Yongli signed at the registration window.

Zhou Niannian waited in the office for a while and didn't see Li Dongxing, so he came out to take a look.

Bai Yongli stood up straight after signing, and turned to face Zhou Niannian who came from the corridor.

Both froze at the same time.

Zhou Niannian looked at the lean man opposite, the scar on the left side of his face stretched from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose, and his triangular eyes drooped slightly, hiding a bit of anger, which was obvious

She took two steps forward with some eagerness,

Bai Yongli frowned, pulled down the brim of his hat, and walked out of the door quickly.
