Chapter 22: Incoming Calls

In the records, many of them are customers such as Mr. Wang, Manager Chen, and the latest call record is a person with a note of Chu Wentian.

“… Who is Chu Wentian? ”

"You don't even remember your uncle's name?" Chu Dingtian looked at her reproachfully and said, "Your uncle's condition has just improved, and he has been thinking about traveling abroad, and I am going to take him abroad to see it this National Day." ”

Chu Wentian is Chu Dingtian's eldest brother, and unlike his younger brother who started a family and carried forward the Chu family, Chu Wentian is a very self-chic person.

After he got divorced, he never looked for his other half, and he was alone.

Chu Zimo said suspiciously: "... Did you really talk to Uncle just now? ”

"If you don't believe me, just dial it back." Chu Dingtian's face was frank and his conscience was clear.

Seeing this, Chu Zimo couldn't help but be a little shaken, but once the flame of doubt in his heart was ignited, it would not be so easy to be extinguished.

She still called back in front of her father.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Dingtian, what happened just now, I suddenly hung up in the middle of speaking?"

Listening to the voice of a man with a warm voice in the microphone, Chu Zimo's hanging heart finally landed safely.

She seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and suddenly fell to the ground.

“… Ah, uncle, I'm Momo. ”

"It's Momo, I often hear your dad talk about you, you have excellent academic performance, you never have to worry about him, you are your dad's pride and pride!"

Chu Zimo raised his lips, couldn't hide the joy in his heart, quickly glanced up at Chu Dingtian, and said modestly:

"Studying is so-so, uncle, you have to pay attention to rest, I wish you a speedy recovery!"

After speaking, she returned the phone to Chu Dingtian, showing a timid expression of waiting for punishment for doing something wrong, and looked at him with a blank eye.

The daughter put on such a pitiful appearance, where is Chu Dingtian willing to lose his temper?

With a wave of his hand, he sent her away.

"Hey, she's gone... I was going to confess everything tonight, but I still couldn't say it. ”

"Brother, you can hide this matter for as long as you want, it's good for you and Momo."

Hot pot for dinner.

A family of three is shabu with their favorite ingredients in a red oil pot, and everyone has a smile on their faces.

Chu Zimo kept putting meat in his parents' sauce bowl and asked them to eat more.

You can see that she is very happy tonight.

"Hee-hee-hee, how long has it been since we got together to make shabu-shabu? A year? Two years? It seems like it hasn't been like this for many years, Mom and Dad, you eat more! ”

"Don't fish for me tripe, my teeth are not very good, and I can't bite it." Liu Ruyu picked out all the tripe and hairy tripe in the bowl, and only ate some vegetables and mutton rolls.

Chu Zimo took another plate of mutton and put it in the pot, and after it was cooked, he used chopsticks to put a full plate of meat in Liu Ruyu's bowl, and urged:

"Mom, since you can't eat those tripe hairy tripes, then eat more meat!"

Liu Ruyu glanced at the sauce bowl that was about to pile up into a small hill, put down the chopsticks,

He sighed heavily and said:

"I have a hand with your dad, and we will clip whatever we want to eat! We don't need you to keep us busy with food here, you know? ”

"That's it!" Chu Dingtian echoed: "You can eat yours, look at the hot pot that will keep you busy!" Why don't you just give me and your mom all the dishes on the table!" ”

Being counted down like this, Chu Zimo was suddenly aggrieved: "I didn't do anything, didn't I just give you the second elder a dish... Then it's okay if I don't clip it, I'll eat my own! ”

She began to eat with her head down, but the more she ate, the less aggrieved she became.

Mom and Dad have changed, and they don't love her as much as they used to be.

Now she has a kind of... They lose their sense at any time, they can't catch it, and they are very insecure.

After the meal, Chu Zimo changed his clothes and wanted to go out for a walk and eat.

When I dug into my pocket, I found a hundred dollars in cash.

"Strange... Where did the money come from, I don't usually have the habit of stuffing money into my pockets! ”

She has obsessive-compulsive disorder, unless it's a coin, she likes to flatten out and put it in her purse, and she doesn't like to crumple it.

After thinking about it hard, Chu Zimo patted his head and remembered!

Last night she ran away from home and ran into a man called... Uh, what's the name of the young man, the other party borrowed her a hundred yuan, saying that he was waiting for her to pay it back tonight.

"That's right, go over and return the money to him tonight, and thank him again by the way."

Chu Zimo took out a hundred yuan from her wallet, and after thinking about it, she drew another one.

The other party lent her a hundred, and she returned two hundred, is it enough?

It must be that we don't owe each other, right?

Walking!

Chu Zimo came to the place where they met last night, and on the right hand side was the old-fashioned residential area.

It's quiet, and occasionally you can hear the breeze rustling through the leaves, uh, how can there be owls?

Looking at the time, it was now past nine and five, and the boy did not appear.

"Just wait... Well, wait until 10 o'clock, and if the other party doesn't show up, then forget it tonight. ”

didn't wait long, and a deep voice sounded behind him:

"You're here."

Chu Zimo turned his head when he heard this, and said in a grateful tone: "Ah, I really thank you last night!" ”

As she spoke, she took out two hundred yuan from her pocket and handed it over with both hands:

"I ran away from home last night, penniless, and I was still in a little mood thinking about walking all the way to school... Fortunately, I met you, thank you for lending a helping hand to the strange me, you take this money, and the extra will be counted as interest. ”

Bai Xian's gaze stayed on the two banknotes for two seconds before looking away, without reaching out to take them.

He stared at the girl in front of him and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Last night's encounter was fate, the bond between you and me has been created, and the money does not need to be returned to me." ”

“… Yes? Chu Zimo's face was dazed and puzzled: "No, I may have eaten too much hot pot tonight, and my brain is not very good, how... Don't understand what you're saying? ”

What is the other party talking about, what fate, what fetters, what kind of thing, meow meow?

The indescribable weirdness and subtlety in Chu Zimo's heart surfaced again, last night she felt that this young man was weird, the feeling that she couldn't describe, and tonight it was like this again.

Aren't they in the same dimension?

She doesn't know much about two-dimensional!

"Chu Zimo, I've been waiting for you."

“… Damn, how do you know my name? Chu Zimo's hairs stood on end, like a cat with fried hair, his eyes frightened and defensive.

She took a few steps back, still holding two hundred yuan in her hand, and her voice trembled slightly in the wind:

"You, are you afraid that I will take your money and run away and not pay it back, so you went out of your way to investigate me?"

Bai Xian didn't speak, just shook his head.

"That's... So how do you know my name? ”
