In the evening, Liu Xingchen found that Ai Mengmeng's mobile phone couldn't get through, and he couldn't contact her, and he went home at noon and found that something was missing for no reason, the clothes she used to wear were gone, her cup and ID card were gone, and there was a lack of a pillow...... It's strange to think about, and there was no warning before.

Because he hasn't had time to understand Ai Mengmeng's life in China in depth, he doesn't know what friends she has over the years, and he doesn't know where to find her except for where he works.

He came to the bar street first, and was the first to find the little pigeon's door. Hearing the little bartender say that the boss might come tonight, he sat anxiously for a while, symbolically asked for a glass of wine, remembering that day Ai Mengmeng said that she would change the locks, move, and keep hiding, he scolded himself in his heart for being an idiot, how could he think that she had been melted, how could he think that she would change his mind so lightly. thought that she could be moved with sincerity and sincerity, but it turned out that she was only moved by herself. That wasn't her style last night, it's her style today!

After waiting less than ten minutes, he slapped a dozen tips in front of the little bartender: "Where the hell is your boss?" Phone numbers are also OK! ”

The little bartender looked at the boss hiding in the shadows with a smile, and shook his head with a shrunken head: "No, brother, it's really not good......"

Liu Xingchen took out a few more banknotes from his wallet and slapped them on the bar.

The little bartender was about to cry: "Brother, it's not that I won't help you, then I will lose my job." ”

"Do you want to talk about it?" Liu Xingchen grabbed the collar of his clothes, pointed at him with the other, and almost clenched it into a fist.

At this time, a group of people pretending to be drinkers from all directions were actually thugs hired by the bar, Liu Xingchen looked back at them, a few of them were quite familiar, the posture of showing off their biceps and eager to try not only did not scare others but showed their own pathetic, these people relied on others to eat seven or eight years ago, and now the little pigeon has become the boss, they are still doing this job, how can the difference between people and people be reasonable.

When Liu Xingchen turned around just now, he seemed to see a pair of familiar eyes at a certain angle, he quickly looked back again, but there was nothing, he let go of the collar of the little bartender, and said, "Sue sù little pigeon, I want to marry Ai Mengmeng." ”

"Oh, good, good." The little bartender swallowed his saliva: "Brother, go slowly." ”

Liu Xingchen returned to the car and continued to call Ai Mengmeng's mobile phone, but it was still turned off. He drove aimlessly through the streets, and there were fewer and fewer people and cars on the road. If you deliberately want to hide, how can you still run into it so quickly. Knowing that there was little hope, he still didn't want to go back. He always felt that Ai Mengmeng left in a hurry, and there were many possibilities for the reasons for leaving, coupled with the attitude of the little pigeon to retreat, he did not rule out the possibility of going out to avoid trouble. He searched outside all night, came home in the morning to change his clothes, washed his face, shaved his beard, and then asked for leave from the company that had just gone to work, he knew that this would leave a bad impression on the company and might affect his prospects in the company, although he knew very well that it was all about painting cakes to satisfy hunger, and it was useless.

He came to Juli High School, it should be class time, the campus is very quiet, now teaching and teaching are separated, and the principal's office has been moved to another building. He found the vice-principal's office, knocked on the door, and soon heard footsteps inside, he took a step back and stood in the hallway. Lin Xiaotian opened the door and was surprised for a while: "Xingchen? Come in, come in! ”

Liu Xingchen had played golf with him in the first few days after returning to China, so he had a better understanding of his current situation, and two years ago he became the vice principal, in charge of admissions and graduation. He may be a little sour in front of students and teachers, but he is another virtue in front of leaders. Don't look at Ai Mengmeng doesn't like him, Liu Xingchen doesn't think so, because his father is a high-level person in the education industry, and he will deal with a certain principal and a director at every turn, and he grew up watching these things since he was a child, if a person wants to be exquisite in society, he must have many masks, the most extreme example is those actors, who played villains yesterday, played decent today, will follow the director tomorrow, and marry a wealthy family the day after tomorrow, isn't it still sought after by many fans.

Liu Xingchen sat down politely, and Lin Xiaotian took out the best tea to entertain him. Although Liu Xingchen said: "I don't drink tea, don't be busy." Lin Xiaotian still opened a box of unopened hair tips and soaked in a pot.

He said: "Now that the school is facing enrollment and graduation, I haven't played for a long time, what has your dad been busy with lately? ”

Liu Xingchen said: "I haven't been home recently, so I don't know. Principal Lin, do me a favor. ”

"You said, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Liu Xingchen said: "It's to check some old student files, and if necessary, I want to find someone to inquire about something." ”

"It's hard to check the student file, you drink tea first, and I'll find someone for you."

Liu Xingchen said: "Wait a minute, let me ask first, do you remember Ai Mengmeng?" ”

Lin Xiaotian scratched his head and patted the back of his neck vigorously: "Ah, I remember remember, she has always misunderstood me, I was very serious about my work at that time, I also wanted to educate her well, take a university entrance examination or something, but I didn't expect her to ......"

Liu Xingchen hurriedly said: "Those are all in the past, I just want to check what her parents do, whether they have a work unit or contact information, or a home address or something." ”

Lin Xiaotian asked: "What, did she really cut off her relationship with her parents?" ”

"It should be, we didn't live together many years ago."

Lin Xiaotian said: "You have to ask Chang Huaizhi about this, he is her homeroom teacher, I will call him for you, you ask him face to face." ”

"Okay, I'm in trouble."

Lin Xiaotian said: "Hehe, it's not troublesome, it's very convenient." As he spoke, he pressed the landline phone, dialed a few numbers, and soon answered on the other side, he said, "Hey, Mr. Chang, are you busy?" Don't hurry up and come over for a while, there's something going on. Come on! ”

Liu Xingchen said: "I heard that Teacher Chang is no longer teaching now, right? ”

"Yes, not anymore. In the early years, the teachers were reluctant to teach, and the new teachers were enthusiastic and inexperienced, and now they are facing a fault line, and the work is very difficult to carry out. ”

Liu Xingchen said: "Why didn't those teachers teach well in the past? ”

"It's not that teachers don't teach well, it's that students are getting harder and harder to teach." Lin Xiaotian sighed and said, "I think it's time for people my age to retire." ”

Liu Xingchen smiled: "Principal Lin, you are not yet fifty years old, isn't it a good time to do your career, how can you say that?" ”

Lin Xiaotian patted him on the shoulder: "You don't know, Xingchen, education is the most important thing, but now the whole society understands it wrongly, there is no way, now there is a family of children, and the standard of living has also gone up, parents can give as much as they want, and spoil their children into anything, school teachers can't control it at all, parents don't care, and the school can't manage it." ”

Liu Xingchen nodded: "We didn't seem to be like this at that time. ”

"Well, even if there is, it's just an isolated case. For example, Ai Mengmeng is a special example, her parents divorced and got married, there are few relatives, and she is the only one left in the family, and the teacher can't come to her house every day to cook for her and watch her do her homework, right? I still remember that she loves to smoke, she smoked at such a young age, her body was not well developed, she smoked so thin, skinny and bone-like, tsk...... I wanted to take care of her, but I couldn't get in touch with her parents and couldn't communicate with her......"

Liu Xingchen said: "Yes, her personality is quite awkward, but I heard that she is okay now." ”

"Really? I once overheard someone say that she was doing alcohol wholesale, right? I know that those young people love to drink foreign wine now, and to tell you the truth, it is not a serious business, but if you don't have a diploma, you can only do some speculation. ”

"Well, that's right." Liu Xingchen smiled: "I've been dating her recently. ”

"Oh-" Lin Xiaotian suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "Hehehehe...... That's what happened......"

Chang Huaizhi knocked on the door twice outside, pushed the door and came in to see: "Yo, isn't this Liu Xingchen?" ”

Liu Xingchen immediately stood up and respectfully stepped forward to shake hands with him: "Hello, Teacher Chang." ”

Chang Huaizhi shook his arm and said, "It's good, it's good." What's the matter? ”

Lin Xiaotian said with a smile: "Sit for a while, you can't come if you have nothing to do." ”

Liu Xingchen said: "I want to ask you if you still remember what Ai Mengmeng's parents did, and are they still in touch over the years?" ”

Chang Huaizhi was a little strange: "Ai Mengmeng? ”

Lin Xiaotian hurriedly explained: "Now Xingchen is Ai Mengmeng's boyfriend, I want to know her family background, uh, what if...... If you are thinking about getting married, it is necessary to find out. ”

Liu Xingchen nodded reluctantly: "Hmm." That's what it means. ”

Chang Huaizhi is even more strange, yesterday I heard Song Linlin say that Liu Xingchen and Wu Jiao are going to marry their sons, and when the time comes, will there be unification in the class, Chang Huaizhi said that there is no need to unify this kind of thing, today Liu Xingchen ran over and said that he was Ai Mengmeng's boyfriend, thinking about marrying her, what is the situation?

Liu Xingchen saw his surprised expression, this must be Wu Jiao has not said it to anyone since the breakup, so now he is still Wu Jiao's fiancé in the eyes of others, as the party who proposed to break up is a man, he can't go around to say this kind of thing, as if he is showing off how dragged he is, but at this moment he has to say, he smiled very unnaturally: "That's the case, Teacher Chang, I broke up with Wu Jiao, and now, Ai Mengmeng is my girlfriend." ”

"Ahh

Once the breakup involves children, everyone must think it is incredible, and normally there must be such a big reason to break up. Chang Huaizhi has been working as a student for many years, and he is definitely not as sleek and ghostly as Lin Xiaotian, and he couldn't help but bounce up from the sofa when he heard these words.

Chang Huaizhi's surprise made Liu Xingchen a little faceless, after all, the teacher is an elder, and it is very ashamed to say such a thing in front of the elders. If Chang Huaizhi didn't know Wu Jiao, it wouldn't matter, I remember that he still liked Wu Jiao as a student at that time, and the relationship between Liu Xingchen and Wu Jiao was also a major event that caused a sensation in the whole school at that time, which impressed everyone. Although it is free to fall in love and have autonomy in marriage, but how can Chang Huaizhi, as the head teacher, not feel sad when he sees such an angry behavior of his classmates.

Lin Xiaotian shouted at him several times next to him: "Teacher Chang, Teacher Chang, Chang Huaizhi!" Do you remember it? ”

Chang Huaizhi hurriedly agreed: "Oh, that's the case, Ai Mengmeng's father seems to have been fired from the unit a long time ago, I remember that he went to work as an individual later, as if he was tinkering with antiques in the antique city, and he should still be there now." Her mother, I have seen, after the dissolution of the original food factory, she went to work as a manager in a big restaurant, and she was issued at that time, and she may have had her own restaurant for a long time. I can ask you more about the specifics, some students know more than I do. ”

Liu Xingchen nodded: "Then what are her parents called?" ”

Chang Huaizhi, who is a Chinese teacher, has been shouting strange in his heart, as Ai Mengmeng's boyfriend, he even has to ask others what her parents are called, is this reliable? He turned his eyes to look at Lin Xiaotian, who was obviously a little confused, but not as curious as him. He couldn't hold it back and asked, "Didn't she even tell you about this?" ”

Liu Xingchen explained: "She doesn't like people asking about this, so I ...... it"

"Oh......" Chang Huaizhi nodded: "I don't remember the names of her parents, you can check the student files." ”

"Okay."

Lin Xiaotian said, "Teacher Chang, have another cup of tea." ”

Chang Huaizhi said: "Don't drink it, I'll go first." Xingchen, have time to come back more! ”

Liu Xingchen stood up and shook hands with him: "Okay, definitely." Teacher Chang, you go slowly, don't send it. ”

Chang Huaizhi waved his hand to Liu Xingchen in the corridor: "Okay, sit down." ”

Later, Lin Xiaotian called the teacher in charge of the file over and provided Liu Xingchen with a student file filled in by Ai Mengmeng at that time. Father, Ai Zheng; Mother, Jiang Hong.

Lin Xiaotian suddenly brightened: "Jiang Hong, I know her, is she the boss of the Shadow Hotel, or is she the same name?" ”

Liu Xingchen said: "Then do you have her contact information?" ”

"Yes." Lin Xiaotian took out a well-printed business card in the business card holder and handed it to him: "There are quite a few people named Jiang Hong, not necessarily." ”

Liu Xingchen said: "Lend me this business card, I'll take a look and know." ”

"Take it, take it. Why don't I ask her out for you? ”

Liu Xingchen thought for a while: "No need, I'm already very grateful to you." ”

"Don't say that in the future." Lin Xiaotian patted him on the back and walked out with Liu Xingchen.

"Still, I might come back to trouble you." Liu Xingchen said at the door.

Lin Xiaotian smiled and said, "You are welcome to come back and trouble me more, I just haven't had a chance to thank Chairman Liu." ”

Liu Xingchen smiled and said, "Principal Lin, then I'll leave first, and I'll invite you and Teacher Chang out for tea when I have time." ”

"You don't need to invite him, just invite me alone, ahahaha......"

"Huh." Liu Xingchen smiled and shook his hand.
