Chapter Twenty-Three: The Annoying Gift

Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned to the Public Security Bureau, Fang Yuan was entangled in another matter, as soon as she returned to the office, she saw a big paper bag on her desk, which was full, picked it up and weighed it, the weight was not light, Fang Yuan didn't know where this big bag of things came from, and he didn't dare to move it, so he pushed it aside, and then called Ke Xiaowen's biological mother according to the phone number provided by Dai Xu.

Ke Xiaowen's biological mother's name is Hong Qing, and now she has not continued to do business on her own, but works in a private company, when she received a call from Fang Yuan, the other party was very surprised, and it was not difficult to hear from the attitude, it was the kind of liar who regarded Fang Yuan as a communication fraud, fortunately, her reaction was relatively calm, and she did not hang up the phone immediately, under Fang Yuan's repeated explanations, she finally realized that this was not a scam call, but a real call from the Public Security Bureau, And it was to inform her of a bad news about her son Ke Xiaowen.

Hearing the news of Ke Xiaowen's death, Hong Qing was silent on the phone for a while, Fang Yuan thought that she would cry, question, or lose her hysterical temper and refuse to accept such a fact, but none of this happened, after Hong Qing was silent for a while, her tone still sounded relatively calm and calm, she would ask for leave from the leader of the unit now, and then come to the public security bureau as soon as possible to cooperate with their investigation.

The communication with Hong Qing was quite smooth, Fang Yuan was also relieved, after hanging up the phone, just as Tang Hongye came back from outside, Fang Yuan hurriedly asked him if he was in the office just now, and whose thing belonged to him.

"Oh, that bag. Lin Feige took it and put it on your table directly, saying that it was for you. I didn't ask her too much, because something happened to happen. Tang Hongye replied casually.

Fang Yuan was stunned, why did Lin Feige bring such a big bag of things to himself? Only then did she pull the bag over, open it and take a look, and saw that there were boxes of beautifully packaged boxes, and the outer packaging was full of foreign languages, judging from the patterns. It's like something like a powdered drink, and then take a closer look at the instructions on the package, and then you can see it. It turns out that these are a brand of meal replacement shake powders.

As for what the meal replacement shake powder was for, Fang Yuan could guess it without trying it again.

She had an inexplicable feeling that she didn't need this kind of thing firstly, and secondly, the price was not cheap. Lin Feige has not been very happy with himself before. The two of them didn't even talk much, so how could they suddenly send themselves a large bag of this meal replacement shake for some reason?

If you want to find out the answer to this matter, there is only one way, that is, call Lin Feige and ask her in person, Fang Yuan took advantage of the fact that Ke Xiaowen's biological mother Hong Qing had not yet arrived, and hurriedly called Lin Feige.

"You brought the things on my table?" After the phone was connected, Fang Yuan asked bluntly.

Lin Feige laughed on the other end of the phone. He said, "I don't know what's in it, don't ask me anything." Your mother came here early in the morning, there was no one in your office, she couldn't get in, and when she met me, she had to let me help her get it to you, so the boss had a big bag, and it was very heavy, and I was obliged to run errands. ”

As soon as she said this, Fang Yuan didn't know what to say for a while, so she had to thank her, hung up the phone, and dialed the phone to Fang's mother, the prompt sound thought for a while, Fang's mother answered, as soon as she picked up the phone, she asked Fang Yuan without saying a word: "Did your classmate give you the things I gave you?" ”

"Give it to me," it seemed that this thing was really sent by Fang's mother, Fang Yuan frowned, and while fiddling with the things in his hand, he asked, "But I don't need these, why did I send this over?" ”

"What? For you, of course! Fang's mother asked a stupid question, "This is what I asked someone to bring back to you from abroad, it is said that the effect is good, I know, it is not easy to lose weight, you are hungry, your work is hard, you can't bear it if you are hungry, so I thought, then I will buy you some meal replacements!" You have to take a good look at the instructions, they said, let you eat some whole grain cereals with milk for breakfast, drink this for the other two meals, and don't eat anything else, oh, yes, you can eat a little tomato and cucumber or something, I heard that the effect is very good. ”

"But I don't need this thing at all, so why spend that money." Fang Yuan sighed, she could understand that Fang Mu was trying to stop her weight loss, "And I'm doing this very well now." ”

"Where's the good?" As soon as Fang Yuan heard Fang Yuan say this, Fang Mu immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, "I used to think that you were young, so I didn't bother to care about you, let you go, how old are you now?" It's time to find a partner, you can't be as unwanted as in the past, when you look back to find a partner, people are in good condition in all aspects, but they are not satisfied with your figure, and when the time comes, will you lose weight in time? ”

"Although I can't compare with the current standard, but I am not fat enough to move inconveniently, affecting health, if there is really that kind of person who is particularly picky and harsh on the body, I don't need to deliberately cater to it, even if I can cater for a while, I can't guarantee that I will always be able to starve myself into a handful of bones for decades in my future life, once I can't do it? When the time comes, won't it be too late to be disliked? Fang Yuan sighed, "I'd rather find someone who didn't care much about these things from the beginning and let it be." ”

"Don't be naΓ―ve! Go with the flow, if people don't dislike you today, can it mean that they won't dislike you tomorrow? Can a man who goes with the flow feed you, buy you a big house, buy you a car? Fang's mother reprimanded her on the phone unhappily, "Let me tell you little girl, life is not a stormy life, and eating costs money!" ”

"I understand what you said, but life is inherently changeable, if the other party can't do it wholeheartedly, he will be disgusted if you are fat, and he will be disgusted if you are thin, and there is no excuse for the crime you want to add." Fang Yuan felt very unhappy because of Fang's mother's words, and his tone couldn't help but be a lot colder, "Go back to these things, I'll send them back to you by courier, if you need them." You can use it, or you can give it to someone else who needs it, I don't need it. ”

"You don't mess around! I'm telling you. You have to use it! And you're going to have to keep it under control! As soon as Fang's mother heard this, she immediately became anxious, "Let me tell you, I plan to introduce you to a boyfriend, who is now studying in graduate school in other places, and will come back during the winter vacation, and this time." may not be able to leave, this boy's family is in very good condition, and his father runs a company. He is estimated to take over the help of the family in the future, sooner or later he will be a small boss, and his father's company has business cooperation with your stepfather, and he knows the roots. I'm your own mother. The first thing I thought of was you! ”

"No need, this kind of good thing should be found by someone else, I'm not interested." As soon as Fang Yuan heard this, he immediately understood in his heart, Fang's mother remarried her husband's son of the boss of the cooperative company, if Fang's mother and they had a way to get in touch with each other, this would undoubtedly be a certain helping role in the other party's mother's remarried husband's career. So where is this a great good thing for Fang Yuan himself. Clearly hoping for a chance, if you're lucky. It can pave the way for Fang's mother's remarried husband, which is true.

Recently, Fang's mother has been actively buying expensive brand-name skin care products for Fang Yuan, and urging her to work hard to lose weight, and now Fang Yuan has finally changed from being flattered to being enlightened and has found the crux of the problem.

"What do you mean no?" As soon as Fang's mother heard this, she immediately became angry, and her tone rose several degrees, "Don't think that you are really a young man in the new era, you are not afraid of heaven and earth, you are the eldest of the second day!" You were born from my womb, I suffered so much in ten months of pregnancy to give birth to you, and I also pulled you up for you to eat and drink, and you felt your conscience and calculated how much you owe me! Your life is all given by me! Since ancient times, the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers have been traditions and the right way! A person who gave you his life will trap you? I'm kind enough to introduce you to someone, but you still don't want to? I'll tell you clearly, there is no room for you to negotiate this matter, whether you agree or not, you have to accept it! And when the time comes, if you deliberately make a fool of yourself and make your mother embarrassed, then let's talk about it well! ”

"Whatever you want, anyway, I have your address, whether you want to refuse it or what, I can't control it, and the money to buy things is not my loss, you can do it yourself." Fang Yuan ignored Fang's mother's hysterical anger, and said in an unusually cold tone, "What I don't agree with is that I don't agree, you gave birth to me and raised me, I thank you, but this doesn't mean that you have the right to interfere in my life, in short, I don't agree with the blind date, if you are unwilling, try to see if you can tie me up and take me over." ”

After hanging up the phone, she found that her palms were sweaty, and there was a sense of detachment from her body as if she had just finished running 10,000 meters, and her hands and feet were trembling uncontrollably. Taking a few breaths and calming down his emotions a little, Fang Yuan looked around with a slight weakness, Tang Hongye didn't know when he went out again, Dai Xu was sitting in front of his desk, looking at something intently, and didn't look up at his side, which made Fang Yuan breathe a sigh of relief, what Fang Yuan said and did was cold to her, but if it was discovered by others, it would be embarrassing and embarrassing, Fang Yuan was very sure, Dai Xu could definitely hear what he said to Fang Yuan, And with his mind, he must be able to easily guess the general content of what Fang Mu said to himself according to his own words, but he concentrated on his own business without moving, did not cast his attention over, and did not recklessly inquire and ask, this is actually a kind of understanding for himself.

Sighing, Fang Yuan quickly adjusted his emotions, taking advantage of the fact that Hong Qing had not yet come, he hurriedly checked the contact information of the surrounding courier companies on the Internet, and made a phone call to make an appointment to pick up the door, planning to send those meal replacement shake powders back to Fang's mother. The courier company is still very efficient, after making a phone call for less than ten minutes, someone came, the pickup clerk gave Fang Yuan a list and asked her to fill it in, Fang Yuan picked up the pen and was about to write, Dai Xu walked over, patted her shoulder gently, leaned over and whispered to her: "Write the address of the unit, don't write the home, lest the family don't know about these things, it is easy to cause other unpleasantness." ”

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood Dai Xu's intentions, indeed, Fang's mother wanted to match herself with the son of the boss of the company with her remarried husband, this matter should be known to Fang's mother's remarried husband, but in order to increase the success rate, Fang's mother bought skin care products and bought this kind of meal replacement materials, and spent a lot of money, whether her remarried husband was fully aware of these things, Fang Yuan couldn't be sure, as far as Fang Yuan knew, after Fang's mother remarried, she was not the one who was in the dominant position at home, So sending it to her unit is indeed a safer option.

Fang Yuan smiled gratefully at Dai Xu, nodded, took a pen and wrote down the address of Fang's mother's work unit on the courier note, and then handed over the courier fee and the package of things to the pick-up clerk.

After the pickup clerk left, Dai Xu didn't ask Fang Yuan about the private matters she had just called, Fang Yuan's embarrassment had just eased, and naturally he didn't want to mention it more, so the two of them tacitly bypassed the topic, Fang Yuan went over to Dai Xu's table and asked, "What are you looking at just now, so focused?" ”

"Look at this." Dai Xu picked up the things he had been fiddling with from the table and handed them to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan took it and saw that it was the wooden man they had brought back from the locker in Ke Xiaowen's dormitory.

"Is there anything special about this?" Fang Yuan took it in his hand, looked at it, and then asked Dai Xu.

Dai Xu shook his head: "No, that's why I wonder why such a small wooden man with very rough handiwork is kept in his locker by Ke Xiaowen, you have also seen that this child is very tidy, the things in the locker are well organized, and there is nothing unrelated to learning, but there is such a small wooden man, which is particularly abrupt, and people can't be curious." So I was just thinking about whether this thing could be given to him by someone and what special meaning it represented, so he put it away. ”

"You mean, a gift with special significance?" Fang Yuan felt that it was a little unimaginable, such a big boy, the gadgets that he could cherish and put away, I am afraid that eighty percent of them were not unrelated to the ignorant youthful feelings, but Ke Xiaowen really didn't look like someone who had the heart to think about them, "This little wooden man doesn't look like something that a girl would give?" ”

"yes, so I thought, maybe it doesn't mean anything particularly nice?" Dai Xu said. (To be continued......)
