Dinner was eaten at the police station, it was a little early, it was already past nine o'clock at the moment, when Qiao Shi passed by a dessert shop, the dessert shop was not closed, and he just went in to buy some snacks.

At this time, there were almost no people in the dessert shop, and Joe Shi picked up some cheesecake and some hot drinks.

In addition, there is a new small cake today, which is more expensive, more than three hundred, but because it is about to close, it has been discounted by seven.

After confirming with the clerk that the sweetness was relatively low, Qiao Shi asked the clerk to take it out.

You should be able to eat this one.

Then he chose some small biscuits, and Qiao Shi was about to check out.

At this moment, the door of the dessert shop was pushed open again, and after a while, a hesitant voice behind him also sounded at this time.

"Are you...... Chen Chaolu? ”

Qiao Shi looked back and saw a woman about the same age as her, with delicate makeup, a small black sweater with a low neckline under a camel-colored wool coat, a white and transparent collarbone exposed, and long burgundy hair casually draped.

After thinking about it carefully, it seems to be Chen Chaolu's original colleague Du Yan.

However, the two did not have any friendship, on the contrary, because the two were both newcomers to the company, Chen Chaolu performed better, and Du Yan naturally couldn't get used to Chen Chaolu.

"Long time no see."

A kind smile hung on the corner of Du Yan's mouth, and her fair and slender hand stretched out from her camel-colored coat.

Qiao Shi glanced at her, and also stretched out a hand, but after two years of torture, Chen Chaolu's hands were red and rough, and there were scars left by chilblains.

With two hands clasped together, it's hard to imagine that they are two people of the same age.

Du Yan's hand was closed at the touch of a button, and Qiao Shi didn't have any expression on his face, just took out the payment code and prepared to check out.

"Chaolu, we are also former colleagues, why don't you say a word?"

Du Yan watched Qiao Shi's reaction seriously, but saw that Qiao Shi's face was just calm, and there was no other expression.

Qiao Shi glanced at her lightly, and only spit out a few words coldly.

"I don't want to talk."

"Hey, if you hadn't been sold into the mountains for two years, maybe you would have been able to make a name for yourself in this city."

Du Yan sighed, and her words were full of regret.

Qiao Shi ignored her, just waiting for the clerk to scan her things, she bought a lot of things, but because it was too late, many of them were discounted goods.

Seeing that Qiao Shi still ignored her, Du Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes behind Qiao Shi.

Chen Chaolu, why is she now, she has worked hard in the big city for two years to reach the position of deputy manager, but Chen Chaolu has been sold into the mountains for two years, why is she still so arrogant in front of her!

"Chaolu, you have been trapped in the mountains for two years, and you have no relatives and no reason, it is better to treat these as if I invited you."

Seeing that the things in front of the clerk were about to be scanned, Du Yeon's eyes rolled and she hurriedly prepared to take her mobile phone from her bag.

Qiao Shi raised his eyebrows and spit out a word.

"Okay."

Then he moved out of the way.

Du Yan, who hasn't taken out the phone yet: "......"

"417 in total."

After the clerk finished liquidating, he looked at Du Yan, and Du Yan's hand stiffened.

"You can't be deliberately tricking my friend when she was rescued just now, right? What is more than 400? ”

Du Yan thought about reasoning with the clerk to get Qiao Shi to give up and let her pay.

"This guest, the store operates in good faith, how can he do something to deceive people."

The clerk pointed out the most expensive things Qiao Shi bought.

Two palm-sized small cakes, or discounted, will cost more than 200, it is said to be what kind of imported cream, the cake embryos are special, and there are a few pieces of gold leaf wrapped on them.

In addition, there are five durian mille-feuille cakes, and there are more durians, and a cake costs nineteen yuan......

Well, she has a big appetite and a huge energy consumption, so it's no problem to eat them all.

"Don't you have any money?"

Qiao Shi continued to look at Du Yan lightly, he didn't mean to pay for it himself at all, and the clerk also looked at Du Yan at the moment.

Du Yan had a hard time riding a tiger, so she had to take out her mobile phone from her bag to pay, and her face was colorful for a while.

Qiao Shi chuckled.

When Chen Chaolu was still in the company, Du Yan was a moonlight family.

The pseudo-exquisite life in the big city has hollowed out these so-called white-collar workers.

It is likely that the delicate white-collar workers in the big cities you think are not as comfortable as the women who work in the countryside behind their backs.

After checking out, Qiao Shi waved goodbye to Du Yan with a smile, and walked out of the cake shop with cakes and desserts.

It looks like it's coming to the end of the month, and it's likely that the more than 400 is the little money that Du Yan has left.

Tut~

People with hearts deserve this.

And looking at Du Yan's face, everything has not been going well in the past few days, and she will do it again.

After Chen Chaolu was rescued from abduction, the first person to come out of the news was from the company, and the company was the first to call the police, and after Chen Chaolu was rescued, the company would definitely be notified.

There are also some things about Chen Chaolu that are still in the company, and Chen Chaolu has not told anyone else.

However, the news that she was sold to the mountains quickly spread all over the Internet.

Even her photos have been posted online.

Although there was no one else in the company who released the news, Qiao Shi knew that Du Yan must be one of them.

……

After Qiao Shi returned to the hotel, he looked for some rental information on the Internet.

When Chen Chaolu came back, he did not leave the city, but rented a cheap house.

Qiao Shi chose for a while, and still chose the place where Chen Chaolu once rented, which was an urban village.

It may be demolished in the future, but not in recent years.

Most of the people living in the urban villages are old people and young men and women who have come to the city to struggle.

The environment of an urban village is not good, and perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as dirty and messy.

Everything inside seems to be out of place in this bustling metropolis.

This time, Qiao Shi chose a slightly better house, with a single one-bedroom apartment with a separate bathroom and kitchen.

This kind of house has always been popular in urban villages, and the price is also more expensive, nearly 2,000 yuan a month, not including water and electricity.

The decoration of the house is very old, and the bathroom is simply a squat pit made of cement, which is dark and damp, and there are stains everywhere.

The living room and bedroom are also just simple decoration, there is a small balcony outside the living room, because it is on the fifth floor, and it is sunny, the lighting is relatively good.

But the kitchen can't be said, there are traces of oil everywhere, and the oil has accumulated a thick layer.

Qiao Shi couldn't figure out what kind of person could live like this.

The gas stove has long been unable to see its original color, and the thick layer of fallen meals has become moldy and rotten.

Joe: "......"

(?_?)

It felt like the garbage heap she used to be.

After negotiating with the landlord, the landlord agreed to take all the things in the house away and let Qiao Shi redecorate.

In the future, if Qiao Shi doesn't want to rent, some of the hard decorations in the house that have been renovated cannot be destroyed.

For this reason, the landlord deliberately lowered the rent by 150 yuan per month.

……

It's kind of easy to talk to, not so vexatious.

After signing the contract, the landlord pulled away some of the bed cabinets the next day, and Qiao Shi invited the decorator to enter the decoration.

The whole renovation process will take ten days, even if it is accelerated with additional money.

Qiao Shi took advantage of this time to go to other provinces.

Since Chen Chaolu, who was harmed at the beginning, was completely ruined, he can't live comfortably now.
