With a lean face, eyes as small as a mouse, and a dry tobacco pot bag in his mouth, although thin but tall, the whole person looks energetic, giving people a weathered feeling.

Could it really be Xiaofei's father?

With this conjecture in mind, Wang Shao simply responded boldly: "That's the case, I am Xiang Lianghai's cousin, because I didn't find my cousin, and his family didn't know where he went, so I wanted to come to you and ask." ”

The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and he casually continued, "Who are you looking for here?" ”

Faced with the aggressive questioning of the middle-aged man, Wang Shao wanted to leave, but thinking of all the things in Myanmar, he couldn't bear to leave because he was worried about Xiaofei's safety.

recalled the adventure with Xiaofei in the cave, and on the way to the border checkpoint, he pretended to have a stomachache, but Xiaofei believed it and cared for herself, and Wang Shao's sense of responsibility arose spontaneously.

If you want to spend time with Xiao Fei hand in hand in this life, if the middle-aged man in front of you is really Xiao Fei's father, then there is no need to escape.

has already made a lifelong decision with Xiaofei, no matter what, sooner or later she will have to see her family.

Thinking of this, Wang Shao secretly exhaled a long breath, first easing his slightly nervous mood.

Then he took out a cigarette and handed it to the middle-aged man, and lit the lighter in front of the middle-aged man.

After a moment's hesitation, the middle-aged man lit a cigarette with a lighter lit by Wang Shao.

Seeing that the middle-aged man accepted the cigarette, Wang Shao's mood was no longer as nervous as just now, so he continued: "To tell the truth, I came to find Xiaofei." ”

Hearing that Xiao Fei's name finally came out of Wang Shao's mouth, the middle-aged man also let out a sigh and said casually: "What are you looking for Xiao Fei to do?" ”

"Because I heard my cousin say before that he and Xiaofei were classmates, and I didn't see my cousin this time, so I wanted to ask Xiaofei to see if she knew where my cousin went."

The reason why I lie like this is that I don't want to mention things in Myanmar.

Especially the special adventure with Xiaofei, Wang Shao is really difficult to talk about, and he doesn't want to cause panic among middle-aged men because of this incident, and then bring unnecessary trouble.

The middle-aged man nodded thoughtfully, his eyes swept over Wang Shao's body again, and slowly continued: "You said that your cousin is Xiang Lianghai, the third child of the Xiang family?" ”

The third baby is Xiang Lianghai's nickname, which Wang Shao also knows very well.

Hearing his cousin's nickname coming from the middle-aged man's mouth, Wang Shao nodded excitedly: "Yes, it's the third baby, he is my cousin." ”

After getting Wang Shao's confirmation, the middle-aged man showed a wry smile: "This is strange, I haven't seen him for many days, and I don't know where he went." ”

The middle-aged man's answer further confirmed that Xiang Lianghai had indeed not appeared in Xiaojia Village for many days.

But Wang Shao's purpose here was just to get Xiao Fei's exactness, and it was not so important to his cousin's whereabouts, so he followed the middle-aged man's words and said, "Is Xiao Fei at home?" ”

The middle-aged man did not rush to answer Wang Shao's question, squatted down and sat on the handle of the hoe, took two puffs of cigarettes, seemed to feel tasteless, threw away the cigarette he had just lit, took two puffs at his dry tobacco pouch, and slowly spit out a puff of smoke.

"Hey" The middle-aged man let out a long sigh and continued thoughtfully: "Speaking of my family Xiaofei, I also have a headache, she has been out for almost a month, and there is no news." ”

Wang Shao was shocked when he heard this: "What, you said that Xiaofei has been out for almost a month and hasn't come back yet?" ”

"That's right." The middle-aged man replied with a bitter face: "I heard the rumors in the village that Xiaofei secretly played a boyfriend outside, and I don't know if it's true or not." ”

"Who are you from Xiaofei?" Wang Shao blurted out a question.

The middle-aged man continued without thinking: "I'm Xiaofei's father, I haven't seen her in the house these days, I'm also very worried, you also said that you want to ask her about the situation of the third baby, she went out before the third baby." ”

"Oh" Wang Shao nodded as if he had realized something, and his heart was like boiling water at one hundred and twenty degrees, and it was a mess.

According to Jiang Haofeng's arrangement, Xiaofei should have arrived home safely for many days, even if she walked, she should have arrived home a long time earlier.

But according to what Xiaofei's father said just now, Xiaofei shouldn't have returned home yet, so where will Xiaofei go?

As early as when the Kokang Army was stationed, Jiang Haofeng told Wang Shao that Xiao Fei had been handed over to the border checkpoint by the soldiers of the squad, could it be that Xiao Fei learned from Wang Shao and escaped at the border checkpoint?

Thinking about it, I felt that it was impossible, Xiao Fei was in a hurry to come back to find the negative boyfriend theory, and asked him if he sold Xiao Fei to Tu Zhiqiang's organization, if Xiao Fei had come back, he would definitely have to go home to visit his parents first.

Could it be that Xiaofei suffered some accident?

Just when Wang Shao's mind was in a hurry, he only heard the middle-aged man ask, "By the way, little brother, what's your name?" ”

After a little groaning, Wang Shao said lightly: "My name is Wang Shao, if Xiaofei comes back, please tell her, just say that the cousin of the third baby has come to find it." ”

Seeing that the middle-aged man did not plan to invite into the house, Wang Shao took the opportunity to resign.

Since Xiao Fei is not at home, she has to find a way to find it.

The middle-aged man didn't say a word of relief, just looked at Wang Shaoyuan's back, and muttered to himself: "It seems that Xiaofei's trouble is getting bigger and bigger." ”

That night, Wang Shao's figure appeared at the door of Haizhou Hotel.

After returning from Xiaojia Village, Wang Shao couldn't be idle for a moment, and rushed to the provincial capital non-stop.

He will not forget that Jiang Haofeng once said that when the outstanding Tu Zhiqiang organization was rescued, it was when the Tu Zhiqiang organization had not yet left the provincial capital.

Haizhou Hotel is Xiaojie's workplace, and if you want to find Xiaojie's traces, you have to start with Haizhou Hotel.

He had already promised the second uncle that he must take Xiaojie back to Xiaojia Village before the second uncle died, and go to see the second uncle's zuihou.

At the beginning of the night, Haizhou Hotel is like a bright lighthouse, standing proudly in the dark air, which is particularly eye-catching.

With the guidance of the doorman, Wang Shao walked slowly to the front desk, but his eyes kept scanning the situation in the Chinese restaurant.

When he first went to Haizhou Hotel, Wang Shao was taken directly to the personnel department on the second floor as a part-time worker, and then he was taken to the chef's office, and met the young chef, Tu Zhiqiang, who was disguised as a dripping man.

Coming to Haizhou Hotel again, Wang Shao prepared to make a secret visit as a guest, in order to get some information about Xiaojie, so as to provide practical clues for finding Xiaojie.

The front desk attendant was very enthusiastic and tried his best to introduce Wang Shao's hardware facilities and software services to Haizhou Hotel, although Wang Shao tried his best to hide himself and pretend to be a guest staying in the hotel, but he was still recognized by a woman.

"Hello, aren't you the boy who applied for a job at our hotel last time?" A soft female voice sounded from behind Wang Shao, interrupting the description of the front desk attendant.

He looked back in surprise and saw a woman in her thirties looking at him with a smile.

Why is this woman so familiar?

Secretly surprised, Wang Shao couldn't help but look carefully at the woman who spoke.

The woman in the professional suit and short skirt has a melon seed face with light makeup, slightly protruding breasts and slender waist, as well as round thighs, all revealing a clean and mature temperament.

On the woman's slightly convex chest is wearing an eye-catching work card, which indicates the emblem of Haizhou Hotel, and several large gold characters are clearly visible: Front desk manager, Ding Guoyan.

On top of this row of Chinese characters, there is also a row of English, which Wang Shao can't understand, but Ding Guoyan has some impressions of these three words.

"Why don't you remember me?" The woman smiled and politely replied: "More than half a month ago, I took you to the office of the Ministry of Personnel to apply for a job, do you remember?" ”

Wang Shao suddenly realized when he heard this, and suddenly remembered that when he first went to Haizhou Hotel, it was indeed the front desk manager named Ding Guoyan who led him to the personnel department on the second floor.

At that time, she walked in front and deliberately kept a distance of one meter from Wang Shao, especially the faint perfume smell emanating from her, which made Wang Shao remember it vividly.

After being recognized by the front desk manager, Wang Shao seemed a little flustered, and responded with a loud voice: "Hello, I remember." ”

After confirming that he knew Wang Shao, the front desk manager did not have the enthusiasm he had before, and just said lightly: "Is this time to prepare for accommodation, or to come back to work?" ”

Facing the front desk manager's hot and cold, Wang Shao was a little overwhelmed, and when he heard her words, he had an epiphany: she greeted herself out of professional habits.

Usually the service personnel engaged in five-star hotels are required to remember the names and characteristics of the guests, so as to remember the habits of the guests, and when the guests come next time, they can give their favors and make the guests feel at home.

Presumably, the front desk manager named Ding Guoyan was also out of professional habits, so he had a couple of sentences with Wang Shaotao, and then turned to the topic.

With a faint wry smile, Wang Shao replied: "Last time I came, I didn't continue to work here because I didn't find a friend. This time I went to the provincial capital to do some errands, and I wanted to see if my friend was still here, so I stopped by the way to live here. ”

Ding Guoyan, the front desk manager, smiled politely and said, "So you are here to stay this time?" ”

"En" Wang Shaogang nodded in response, and heard Ding Guoyan shout to the front desk attendant: "Open a standard room for this gentleman, and give a seventy-five discount according to the platinum VIP membership price." ”

The front desk attendant answered yes, and then asked Wang Shao for his ID card to check in.

Hearing that Ding Guoyan wanted to give himself a discount according to the check-in standard of platinum VIP guests, Wang Shao was a little flattered, and hurriedly handed his ID card to the front desk attendant, and at the same time expressed his gratitude to Ding Guoyan: "Manager Ding, xiexie you." ”

"No thanks, it's just what I can do." Ding Guoyan, the front desk manager, responded casually: "Haizhou Hotel welcomes you at any time, if there is anything else you need my help with, please feel free to ask." ”
