In H City, Zhou Chaoyue is carving a seal. It's always been a hobby of his, but in the past, he kept going on missions and didn't have time. Now that I'm recuperating at home, I just use this to pass the time with my extra time.

The semi-finished product in the hand is the rain flower stone from the Internet, which is not very expensive, but it is better than the color is simple, the shape is good, if it is carved, it can be used as a private seal to collect it.

I was admiring it, but I heard someone knocking on the door outside. Counting that today is the sixth, the little girl should come back from Beijing.

"I said you were careless, you forgot your key again! Next time, don't remember, or you'll be locked out......" Before he finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly.

The person standing outside was not Xu Yuelin at all, but a middle-aged woman. The woman is well-maintained, looks pampered, and judging by her jewelry, she should be from a rich family.

"Are you ......" Zhou Chaoyue wanted to say at first whether you were looking for the wrong person, but looking at the woman's eyes looking at her, it didn't look like she was knocking on the wrong door, so she couldn't help but ask with some doubts.

"You're Zhou Chaoyue?" The woman spoke very politely, and she was directly instructed, and after seeing Zhou Chaoyue nodding, she immediately frowned and said, "You kidnapped my daughter?" It's a good look, but I didn't expect it to be a little white face who relies on women to eat, no wonder my daughter was fascinated. ”

Zhou Chaoyue was sprayed like this for no reason, how could he not have any anger in his heart, but his good upbringing still made him stop his anger and asked calmly: "Who is your daughter?" ”

The woman snorted coldly, "Now pretend not to know?" Where did you hide our shadows? As he spoke, he was about to go in the door to look for her, "Is she in there?" Get out of the way! ”

It's strange that Zhou Chaoyue will get out of the way, even if this person is Meng Shuying's mother.

"Your daughter is Meng Shuying? What's wrong with her? One hand took hold of the woman's arm and immobilized her.

The woman couldn't break free, and immediately became angry, "You still have the face to ask me!" I sue you, no matter what, I will not marry my daughter to someone like you. I want to rely on my daughter to get on the throne, but there is no door! ”

What a vexatious mess!

Zhou Chaoyue wanted to shut this woman out of the door, but when he thought of Meng Shuying, he still patiently asked, "Meng Shuying, what's wrong with her?" ”

But the woman did not answer him, "Is she hiding in your house?" Isn't it? Probably thinking that this was very likely, she yelled into the room: "Shuying, I know you're inside!" Hurry up and get me home! Don't embarrass me and your dad. The daughter's marriage is originally decided by the parents, how can we be parents who can harm you? We can arrange a marriage for you casually, and it is better than you marrying this poor bastard. ”

Hearing her words, Zhou Chaoyue almost understood what was going on. Seeing that the woman was still yelling inside, she couldn't help but say, "The person you are looking for is not in my house." You'd better look for it somewhere else. With that, he let go of her arm and quickly closed the door.

When the woman saw him close the door, she immediately banged on the door, and at the same time stood at the door like a shrew and scolded.

Inside, Zhou Chaoyue couldn't stand the noise, and he was thinking about Meng Shuying, so he slammed the door open and threatened: "If you want to continue, then I will sue everyone and say that the director's wife is here to scold the street, believe it or not!" ”

Threatened by him like this, the woman's face suddenly became wonderful, but in the end the voice was quiet, and finally it became nothing.

Looking out through the cat's eyes, I saw that there was no one outside. Zhou Chaoyue wanted to go out, but he didn't know where to look for it for a while, so he called his former colleague.

"You mean, Meng Shuying, she ran away from home?" Having guessed something from the woman's words before, Zhou Chaoyue was not too surprised, but continued to ask, "Then did she look for you?" No? Are you saying that she left without contacting anyone? So how long has she been gone? Oh, okay, I got it. ”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chaoyue fell into deep thought. Meng Shuying has been away from home for nearly half a month, and he doesn't even know any news. She hadn't come to the hospital to see her before, he thought it was something at home, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

Just when I was feeling sorry, the phone rang, and this time it was Xu Yuelin's call.

After reining in his feelings, Zhou Chaoyue asked gently, "Have you arrived in H City?" ”

On the other side of the phone, Xu Yuelin's voice came, "Dad, I seem to have seen that Miss Meng." ”

――――

Since seeing Xu Yuelin that day, Meng Shuying has not been to the stall for several days. It was not until after the Golden Week that the flow of people in Beijing was greatly reduced, so he went out to set up a stall with a mask.

The food court without tourists has a lot less traffic, but it is still crowded at night. Even if Meng Shuying is unskilled, his business is not bad.

After carefully setting up for a night, seeing that there was no sign of anyone around looking for her, Meng Shuying gradually let go of her heart, but she was still faintly a little lost in her heart.

Xu Yuelin will come to Beijing, so he should come with him! If only I could see him from afar.

Touching her cheek, Meng Shuying began to pack her things and walk back.

Behind the food court is a residential area, but because there are too many people, the environment inside is not very good. Coupled with the high price of housing in Beijing, she now has just enough money to rent a basement.

returned to his rented room, put the cart away, and Meng Shuying fell on the bed.

It's a very hard day, you have to get up early in the morning to prepare the squid, and in the evening, you have to go home late at night, and the income you get is only enough to live.

After resting for a while, Meng Shuying took off the mask on her face and washed her face. Looking at the broken face in the broken mirror glued to the wall, there was silence in her eyes.

"You are my daughter, your appearance and your body are all given by me, you have to listen to me obediently! Girls are born to marry, and since you have enjoyed the benefits for so many years, you have to make some contribution to the family. ”

"Huh." smiled self-deprecatingly, and the face in the mirror also moved, because of the scars on the face, not only did it lose its beauty, but it showed a hideous feeling.

Don't look away, she's going to find something to eat to fill her stomach. At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

She didn't know anyone in this strange environment. The most familiar estimate is the landlord of a few words. But it's getting late, who will come to the door?

There was no cat's eye on the door, and she couldn't see anyone.

I just waited a little longer to see if the man would leave. But what I didn't expect was that the door continued to knock, but the landlord's voice came, "Xiao Meng, you open the door!" I've got something to do with you. ”

Thinking that he came back very late, the landlord was looking for himself so late, and it was estimated that there was really something wrong. After Meng Shuying put the mask back on, he opened the door and saw the short and fat landlord, as well as Zhou Chaoyue standing behind him.

Subconsciously, Meng Shuying was about to close the door, but Zhou Chaoyue's reaction was faster than him, one hand grabbed the door frame, and the door slammed into it, hitting his bones with a muffled sound, it seemed that the pain was not light.

"Hmm!" With a muffled snort, Zhou Chaoyue's whole face wrinkled together, "Ten fingers connected to the heart, Meng Shuying, you are really ruthless." ”

Meng Shuying was also stunned, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she wanted to help him see what was going on, but she was worried about her own situation, and for a while, she just stood there stunned, helpless.

"Ouch boy, you're alright!" The landlord was also taken aback by this situation, and immediately helped Zhou Chaoyue when he came back to his senses, and at the same time Meng Shuying was still counting down in his mouth, "Little girl, why are you still stunned, your boyfriend has come all the way to find you, and that's it when you meet, why don't you hurry up and get the medicine!" The little couple quarreled at the end of the bed and, I think your boyfriend is not bad, you have to cherish it. ”

Meng Shuying's face was red when the landlord said this, probably because of the congestion, and the wounds on her face were slightly painful. I turned around and went into the house and looked for it, only to find that she had no plaster at all. I wanted to turn around and tell them, but I saw that the landlord had already helped Zhou Chaoyue into the house.

"Thank you host!" Zhou Chaoyue bared his teeth, "I'm sorry to disturb your sleep so late." My girlfriend is here, just ask her to help me with the medicine, you go up and rest, it's tired. ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" The landlord waved his hand, "I'd rather demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage." This is to accumulate virtue for yourself. Okay, if you two have something to say, I'll not bother you. ”

As soon as the landlord left, Zhou Chaoyue immediately closed the door of the room, and at the same time, the whole person blocked the door, looking like he would not let Meng Shuying escape anymore, "This is where you live?" ”

Because it was a basement, Zhou Chaoyue stood inside, and he had to bend down slightly so as not to hit his head. The room is also very small, and the space is the size of two double beds in the house. A cart and a bed were set up, and they were already full.

I don't know why, a trace of distress flashed in Zhou Chaoyue's heart, and his tone softened a lot, "You live here during this time?" ”

Capturing his expression, the city wall that Meng Shuying had originally built up in his heart collapsed instantly, and the grievances, worries and fears that had been raging for a long time came like the water that burst the embankment, and he immediately burst into tears.

No matter how much polite greeting and care you have, it can't compare to a look at you.

"Zhou Chaoyue, why are you here?" How I don't want you to meet me as a wolf.

"I ......" remembered what Xu Yuelin had told him before, and Zhou Chaoyue was about to blurt out the words and suffocated back, "I'm here to collect debts!" Most of the reason for the injury on my chest is because of you, you didn't say anything at all, and just disappeared, shouldn't I beg for a talk? ”R1152
