Chapter 18:
A few days later, when Zhao Qi happened to meet Guan Xi on the side of the road, he blocked him at the door of the convenience store without saying a word. "Have you had enough of Guan Xi? I need an explanation. ”
Guan Yi slowly unscrewed the mineral water he had just bought, raised his head and took a sip, "You've guessed almost, do I still need to explain?" ”
There is no accident at all, and it takes step-by-step calculations to create acquaintances. Before Zhao Qi joined the newspaper, Guan Xi had already started his design, or was it even longer?
The specific time, Zhao Qi is not sure.
Lu Huainian was going on a business trip, and Xia Yuan temporarily found that there were some necessities missing in the car, so he got out of the car and went to the convenience store next to him to buy them.
Lu Huainian sat in the car and waited for him.
When Xia Yuan entered the door of the convenience store, he saw Zhao Qizheng talking to a boy on the side of the door.
He only heard a little bit of the specifics, what explanations, photos, fires. Xia Yuan just didn't care when she was discussing work news or something, and when he paid on WeChat, he went back to say hello to Zhao Qi and found that they had left.
Zhao Qi, who was carrying Guan Xi, was ready to pull him back and clarify the matter again.
Why did he investigate her dad? Why is his dad still following him after being missing for so long? What the hell is he looking for? In their line of work, if a case does not have the necessary value, they will definitely find a new target, and it will not take time and energy to do so.
But the time of the information he left behind was half a year ago.
Why did he abandon after following him for so long? Is there no need to look up, or does he already know something? Or was something happened half a year ago that caused him to come to an abrupt end?
Zhao Qi has a lot of things in her heart, but at the same time, she also understands: Guan Xi will not tell her anything easily.
Lu Huainian lowered the window.
Three people, meeting for the first time.
Zhao Qi was stunned, and Guan Xi was also stunned when he saw Lu Huainian, they seemed to be quite familiar.
Lu Huainian, of course Guan Xi knows, in order to dig up the truth, he investigated him in private, and now the real person is standing in front of him.
It seems that Zhao Qi has worked hard for his father, and he has worked hard...... in the layout.
Guan Xi's eyes looked like Zhao Qi's meaning was unclear, they were really all the way.
Lu Huainian said a simple hello to her through the car window, "Zhao Qi" In Zhao Qi's eyes, Lu Huainian seems to have always been like this.
Her name was the same tone from the first time Lu Huainian opened her mouth.
Letting go of the sleeve that was holding Guan Xi, Zhao Qi quickly regained his composure, "Professor Lu, what a coincidence"
Looking at the familiar attitude of the two, Lu Huainian asked tentatively, "Male... Friends?"
Seeing her nervousness, Guan Xi also deliberately took Lu Huainian's words, "Hello, I'm Zhao Qi" glanced at Zhao Qi, and Guan Yi deliberately paused again.
Zhao Qi turned his head and glared at him very vaguely, then slapped him on the back, so strong that Guan Yiqing coughed twice, "No, my senior brother from the newspaper, I have something to do with him today." ”
"Hmm~ Go ahead."
"Then Professor Lu, you're busy." Zhao Qi was afraid that Guan Yi would say nonsense, so he pulled him away. Whispered and threatened him, "Guan Xi, I hope the two of us will solve the matter in person, if it makes a big fuss, it will not benefit anyone." ”
After planning for so long, she couldn't afford to fall short.
Guan Xi shrugged his shoulders indifferently, anyway, he had already guessed the result, but after he gave up some things, he found that this matter was actually not that important. But he couldn't say it yet, so he could only quietly follow her away.
Sitting in a corner of the hot pot restaurant, Guan Xi opened WeChat and looked at the balance, and then pushed it in front of Zhao Qi, "That's all, you look at it, eat until you have fun." ”
Zhao Qi glanced at the mobile phone page, six hundred? This man is as poor as ever. However, after today, I'm afraid there won't be even a hundred left.
Anyway, she ordered everything on the menu that was pleasing to her eyes.
Zhao Qi's chosen seat was a little biased, and there was no one around.
"Guan Xi, how much do you know about my dad?"
Guan Yi poured hot water into the cup, then soaked the chopsticks and spoon in the hot water and placed them in front of him. "I know what you know, and I probably know what you don't know."
"I'll just ask you one thing...... Did you know my dad was still alive? ”
Guan Xi didn't speak, and even the expression on his face didn't change at all, and he played with his mobile phone intently, as if he hadn't heard what Zhao Qi had just said.
"Guan Xi, even if you don't say it, one day I will be able to find out the truth."
Guan Xi still ignored her, and the hotel waiter brought the hot pot soup base and dishes.
Soon, the red oil in the hot pot made a splash.
Guan Yi threw away his mobile phone and picked up the dishes with chopsticks. "Little junior sister, aren't you the same as me? Lu Huainian, do you think you can investigate your father's matter by approaching him? No one asked what back then? Do you think you can do it? ”
When the thoughtfulness he thought was broken in front of him by others, Zhao Qi felt that either Guan Xi was too smart or he was too stupid.
But looking at his self-righteous smile, Zhao Qi still scolded him, "That's better than giving up halfway like you." ”
"Am I giving up halfway?" Guan Xi thought thoughtfully with his chopsticks, "Sort of." ”
Zhao Qi has eaten the meat, and she has a good appetite now.
To be honest, she didn't plan to care about anything useful that Xi could tell her today. She just wanted him to know that there was no need to hide like this, and that she would be able to find out what she wanted to find out, even if she didn't rely on anyone.
One more of him is the icing on the cake, and one less of him is not a loss of Zhao Qi. "Either talk about things well, or you just shut up and eat your meal."
Guan Yi got up with the mineral water and instant noodles he had just bought from the supermarket, "Then I'll wait for your good news and leave first." ”
"Wait a minute," Zhao Qi turned his head and shouted to the waiter, "Pay!"
Guan Xi looked at the balance of only 76 yuan left, as well as the four buckets of instant noodles in his bag, and sympathized with the fact that he was going to spend half a month!" It's so ruthless!"
"Hurry up, I'm afraid I'll regret it and add pig brains."
"Little junior sister, are you a pig? Eat so much! ”
"Boss add more pig brains!"
When Guan Xi walked out of the hot pot restaurant, there were still 28 left in his WeChat wallet, "Zhao Qi, you are really cruel and don't talk much!"
To be honest, Guan Yi didn't expect Zhao Qi to let him go so easily, her character is one that doesn't break the casserole and asks to the end, why didn't she follow the routine this time?
Zhao Qi, is she planning something? Zhao Qi is smart, he knows, but can he be as smart as Lu Huainian? Zhao Qi still thinks a little highly of himself.
Zhao Qi sat alone in the store, supportive and depressed.
Know that feeling of wanting to ask but you can't? This was the case when facing Lu Huainian, and now it is the same when facing Guan Xi.
One can't ask now, and the other won't say at all!
The truth was all around her, but she couldn't be in a hurry.
