When stepmother Zhang Wenli came to open the door, Zhang Liying couldn't recognize the person in front of her. The one who came to open the door was a middle-aged woman who was dressed plainly, with fluffy hair, and was holding a haggard face who had no time to put down the rag in her hand.

"Changchang, how did you come...... Yingying, are you here too?" Zhang Wenli looked unrelenting, and after a while, she found Zhang Liying standing behind Jiang Chang, and she beckoned them into the house in surprise.

The house was messy, and it looked very similar to Zhang Liying's residence, maybe the owner of this house didn't bother to clean up.

"Sit, sit ......" Zhang Wenli said a few words "sit" in a hoarse voice, and then she realized that there was no place to sit at home, and she quickly turned around and hurriedly cleaned up the extremely dirty brown leather sofa that was piled up with laundry.

"No need. Zhang Liying hurriedly stopped her, she really didn't want to stay with Zhang Wenli for more, and the atmosphere in this room was suffocating, which made her already bad mood even more depressed, she bluntly explained her intention, "I came here to ask you one thing, what did my father arrest?"

Zhang Wenli's action of packing up her things suddenly froze there, and she hesitated for a long time before saying, "Actually, in fact, I don't know very well, your father rarely tells me about his work." ”

"They must have had a good reason to arrest him, right?, or how could my dad have gone with them for no reason?" Zhang Liying couldn't help but cry out angrily.

"You still don't want to tell me anything? You always use my age as an excuse, right? Don't think that if you don't tell me, I won't investigate, don't I have the right to know what happened to my father? I'm her daughter. Zhang Liying shouted hysterically.

"But I really don't know......," Zhang Wenli suddenly sat down on the sofa and began to sob.

Zhang Liying, who was going to make a big fuss with her, stood there helplessly, not knowing what to do. Jiang Chang knew that Zhang Wenli wouldn't say anything, so he patted his cousin's shoulder to comfort him, and then pulled Zhang Liying and left silently.

Zhang Wenli actually cried first, I still want to cry. Zhang Liying sat on the back seat of the motorcycle, her hands clutching Jiang Chang's clothes tightly, tears rolling in her eyes.

"What do you want to eat? I'll treat you to dinner?" Jiang Chang's voice came from the wind whirring in his ears.

Zhang Liying was silent for a long time before saying, "Whatever." ”

Four years ago, when Zhang Liying was still a sophomore in junior high school, Jiang Chang had just been admitted to university. When Zhang Liying's father led Jiang Chang to her, Zhang Liying just nodded to indicate that she had seen them, and she didn't welcome them at all.

"Yingying, this is Jiang Chang, your Aunt Zhang's cousin. You've been missing a lot of homework lately, and you're going to take the high school entrance exam next year, so I asked him to take the time to make up for you. He's a top student at Reedan University. Jiang Chang, this is my daughter Liying, you have been spoiled by me since she was a child. The father gave a few brief introductions, and then ran away, leaving the two of them behind.

Zhang Liying knew in her heart that her father was afraid that she would not like her stepmother, and she would embarrass the tutor in front of his elders, so she hurriedly avoided it. Isn't he afraid that after he leaves, his daughter will make things difficult for him...... Is it a guy called Jiang Chang? Or is it okay as long as you can't see out of sight and don't get upset? Thinking of this, she felt that this Jiang Chang was a little pitiful, so she was pushed over and ignored.

She looked up and gave Jiang Chang a faint smile: "Then where do we start learning?"

"Hehe......" Jiang Chang sat down on a chair next to her, and he smiled wryly, "I thought you would drive me away, so I didn't bring any textbooks." ”

"Oh, do you really want me to drive you away?" Zhang Liying thought to herself, then the two of us would like to go together.

"Yes, you want me to disappear too, do you? As long as you drive me away, our wishes will come true, and I still want to use my spare time to sketch outside." Jiang Chang used very seductive words to encourage Zhang Liying.

"Oh...... Do you still have a hobby of painting?" Zhang Liying looked him up and down curiously, "My dad thinks he has to find me a tutor, anyway, if I drive you away, he will find another one." At least you don't hate me, and it's better to keep you than to face the next tutor who doesn't know the situation. Since you didn't bring your textbook today, let's start the class tomorrow, shall we? If you agree, I'll go watch TV first, goodbye, Mr. Jiang. ”

Later, Jiang Chang learned that Zhang Liying's academic performance has always been very good, and she has always been in the top ten in her grade, and the so-called decline in grades is just that before the last exam, because she was too obsessed with the plot of the novel she wrote, she did not review and failed.

Because of the drop in grades this time, her father went to find a tutor for her in a panic, which shows that he doesn't know anything about his daughter. However, for Jiang Chang, it is not bad to use a student who does not need tutoring at all to earn some pocket money.

With this thought, Jiang Chang officially accepted the position of Zhang Liying's tutor, that is, from that day on, Jiang Chang, who originally came to deal with things because of his relatives' affection and wanted to mix up some money and spend some money, became grasshoppers on a rope with Zhang Liying, who didn't need tutoring at all.

From Jiang Chang going outside to sketch under the guise of giving Zhang Liying a lesson, to Zhang Liying watching an all-night movie under the guise of looking for Jiang Chang to tutor, some things the two of them did were always indispensable to each other's silent support behind their backs, and because of this, they became good friends.

Zhang Liying doesn't have many friends of the same age, so Jiang Chang will always try her best to help her. When her father had an accident, which was the most important need for others' attention, the people who had always pleased her were gone, and everyone, including relatives, avoided this unfortunate girl. But as soon as she opened her mouth to ask Jiang Chang for help, he came to her side without hesitation.

After Jiang Chang invited Zhang Liying to dinner, he sent her home, and he watched her enter the door worriedly. Zhang Liying ate very little for dinner, although she asked for a large portion of the package and said that she would eat it in the evening, but who knows if she will eat it.

"Xiaoying," Jiang Chang said loudly when Zhang Liying was about to enter the door, "Don't worry, I'll help you inquire about that matter, all you have to do is eat well, sleep well, and keep your spirits!"

"Well, I know, be careful when you ride!" Zhang Liying watched Jiang Chang wave his hand and get on the motorcycle and leave at a gallop, her mood was unconsciously much better, and even her steps were much lighter.

As soon as she entered the house, she immediately opened the painting hanging in the living room, and put the food she brought back into Ji Ao's eyes: "It's for you, you can come out and eat it yourself." ”

Saying that, she hurriedly rushed into the bedroom, and after a while, she changed into a black sportswear, black sneakers, and covered half of her face with a black casual mountaineering hat, and soon appeared in front of Ji Ao, who was gobbling up: "I'm going out for a while, you watch the door carefully, if a thief dares to come in, scare him to death." ”

"Hey, girl, where are you going so late? A good girl shouldn't go out at night. Why are you dressed like this? It's not like you're going to do anything bad, are you? Hey, let me tell you, being a human being is first and foremost upright, and secondly, ......."

Zhang Liying interrupted his rambling while grabbing the black backpack on the sofa, she approached Ji Ao in the painting to stare at him, and asked in an inquiring tone: "What should you men of that era do if they stick their heads into a single woman's house?"

Ji Ao was choked by the food in his mouth and was speechless for a while.

Zhang Liying ignored him anymore, took the door with a "bang", and went out alone. She dressed up as a nightcrawler, and she really planned to do something illegal, and now she wanted to go back to her house and see if she could find any clues.

Her family's house had been sealed after her father's accident, and Zhang Liying didn't know what crime she was guilty of if she sneaked in, but she knew that it was definitely not allowed by law.

However, since he has made up his mind to do something for his father, a small seal naturally can't stop Zhang Liying. She had already prepared a Swiss Army knife, pliers, a pocket flashlight, a silent cell phone, a bottle of mineral water, a pair of gloves, a trekking rope, a bottle of glue and a pair of large sunglasses.

Therefore, it is still very useful to read more novels and TV series.

Zhang Liying thought about it while tidying up her whole body, she looked at the lights in the distance, turned around and pulled the doorknob, and made sure that the door was closed, before hurrying away with her head down.

Although the night is dark, many lights in the community are still on. After all, Zhang Liying has lived here for many years, and she successfully bypassed the doorman and entered the community that seemed to be tightly guarded on the surface.

She knew that there must be cameras installed in the elevators, so she chose to walk upstairs, and when she climbed to the eighteenth floor, she was out of breath, and she held on to the stairs for a long time before walking to her door.

Although she used to live at the school and rarely came back, it was her home after all. Now, when she walked through the familiar hallway again, she really didn't feel good in her heart.

When she walked to the door of her house, Zhang Liying habitually took out the key and immediately realized that something was wrong, why was the seal on the door uncovered? She didn't think it was a naughty child's prank, she reached out and pushed the door, but the door was closed tightly, and she soon found that the combination lock protecting the keyhole was open.

She quickly leaned over and pressed her ear to the door, and sure enough, there was some rustling sound inside.

"There's someone in there!" Zhang Liying's first reaction was to shout loudly to catch the thief, but then she immediately understood her situation.

Isn't he also plotting against him? If this is shouted, it is not certain that who will arrest whom. Suddenly, footsteps sounded in the house, and Zhang Liying quickly hid in a utility room next to the stairs.

The utility room is where the cleaners store their tools, and the space inside is already small, plus it is full of brooms, buckets, rags, etc., Zhang Liying desperately shrinks her body before she can barely stuff herself in. She had a broom on her feet, a bucket hanging above her head, and a fungus-smelling mop standing right under her nose.

Zhang Liying cursed the cleaner who put the mop head up in her heart, and held her breath, because she heard the sound of the door opening and closing, and the people in the house should have come out. Zhang Liying heard the man's conversation in a low voice, but she couldn't tell how many people the other party was.

"Otherwise, kill ......"

"That girl is also troublesome......"
