Chapter 14
Because Xu Xiaoxiao feels that this is a secret for everyone, some things still have to save some face.
Xu Xiaoxiao didn't reply to Zhuang Wanyi's news, Xu Xiaoxiao went home and took a shower and could eat.
"Laugh." Cheng Chenyi kindly sandwiched a piece of meat to Xu Xiaoxiao.
Xu Xiaoxiao was shocked, this kind of treatment, it seems that there is something wrong: "Mom, if you have something to say, don't come to these vains." She smiled at Cheng Chen Yi.
Cheng Chenyi coughed and coughed, "Then I'll say it directly, it's been more than a year since you graduated, you're twenty-five years old, do you have a boyfriend?" ”
Xu Xiaoxiao almost squirted out the rice she ate in her mouth, and coughed.
"Eat slowly, what are you doing, kid."
"Mom, I'm not in a hurry."
"Why aren't you in a hurry, when I was as old as you, I gave birth to you, how old are you, you are already twenty-five, and you are about to run to three, Aunt Wang next door asked, does your daughter have a partner, I didn't dare to say no, others laughed at you for running for three, and you didn't even ...... the object."
"Alright, alright, Mom, this is the first time this week."
"If I don't rush you, will you be in a hurry? I'm doing this for your own good, you ......."
"Mom, Mom, Mom, I'm done, I'm going to read a book" Xu Xiaoxiao quickly finished eating the remaining half bowl of rice, and still answered Cheng Chen Yi's question with evasion, it's not that she doesn't want to fall in love, it's just that there is no suitable, emotionless love, sooner or later it will collapse, she is not willing to settle.
The next day, Xu Xiaoxiao sorted out her mood and took the bus to work.
"What a coincidence, Dr. Xu, are you going to work too?"
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded.
"Dr. Xu is also in this car, it seems that it is fate."
Xu Xiaoxiao still nodded, she didn't speak, she didn't know what to say, in her impression, she was not familiar with the Dong Jiu in front of her, so she didn't bother to talk, not to mention that he pretended to be sick, which really touched her bottom line.
Dong Jiu saw that Xu Xiaoxiao didn't want to deal with herself, so she didn't speak. Waiting for Xu Xiaoxiao to get off the bus, Dong Jiu is still sitting here, in front of the hospital where the lawyer is located, Dong Jiu knows that it is not easy for Xu Xiaoxiao to take this car to work, yesterday Xu Xiaoxiao got off work and he secretly followed, saw his community, roughly calculated how many buses Xu Xiaoxiao would take, and thought about the doctors who were all on duty at half past eight, plus Xu Xiaoxiao has always been a very punctual person, so he tried his luck and chose the car at seven forty, but he didn't expect to really let him run into it.
It's nothing today, but I answered a phone call in the afternoon, Ye Lan said that she bought a house and wanted to celebrate together, and added that other friends were there, Xu Xiaoxiao also nodded and agreed.
She didn't see Dong Jiu in the afternoon, Zhuang Wanyi drove to pick her up, Zhuang Wanyi bought this car as soon as she graduated, plus the money she saved in college, and the soft grinding and hard bubbles to subsidize some money like her parents, so she bought this car, Zhuang Wanyi's parents also loved Zhuang Wanyi very much, especially her father, eager to pay the full amount and buy her a better car, Zhuang Wanyi refused, she felt that she still had to rely on her own economy, buying a car mainly, sometimes running activities, at that time there was no signing brokerage company, Zhuang Wanyi felt that she still had to have some rows to run activities alone, otherwise she would squeeze the bus to work every day, and be seen by those people in the circle, so she might not know how to laugh in the future.
Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhuang Wanyi hadn't seen each other for almost two or three days, and as soon as they met, they opened up the conversation.
"How's your lawsuit?"
"The lawyer didn't contact me."
"I didn't ask you this, how handsome you are."
"I don't know, it's going to be a week before the trial, it's very handsome, it's more handsome, more handsome than Xing Sizhen."
"How can there be such an exaggerated, woman who falls in love." Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head, expressing her denial.
"How are you and that "Dong Jiu"? ”
"Anyway, I suspect he's following me, and I met him again on the bus this morning."
"If people just happen to happen, how can anyone like the "airport". ”
Xu Xiaoxiao glared at her, raised his hand and gestured to hit Zhuang Wanyi: "Shut up and concentrate on driving."
Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhuang Wanyi came not too early or too late, and gave the two of them a gift to pick together, so they found an inconspicuous place to sit down.
"It's coming, why bring a gift?"
Xu Xiaoxiao handed it over: "A little bit of the two of us is not a respect."
Seeing that Xu Xiaoxiao didn't take it back, Ye Lan had no choice but to accept the gift.
"Sit over there, those are my college roommates, you've all seen it, so you won't be too restrained."
This party, including Xu Xiaoxiao, was a total of 12 people. Most of them are Ye Lan's current colleagues, and there are two of his roommates, I have to say that Ye Lan's ability to deal with interpersonal relationships is still very good, unlike Xu Xiaoxiao, who seems to have a few college roommates who can still play together, as for colleagues, it seems that the relationship is not very good, so it can only be average.
Dong Jiu was entangled in a lawsuit in the afternoon, and now it is ten o'clock in the evening, he has just finished tidying up, ready to go home, his stomach is hungry "cooing", his foot injury is not yet healed, so he still limps a little when he walks.
He took a taxi home, ready to deal with a little more casually on the street near the neighborhood.
"Boss, a bowl of ginger noodle soup."
"Holo."
As soon as I sat down, I saw a person who looked like Xu Xiaoxiao walking over at the door, and shouted in my heart to see if it was: "Doctor Xu."
Xu Xiaoxiao actually didn't eat enough, she ate very carefully at night, after all, there are so many people here, if she eats too much, maybe how others are talking behind her back, Ye Lan's friend......
So she and Zhuang Wanyi didn't eat much, but in the end, they chatted with Ye Lan's roommate, and drank wine, with Zhuang Wanyi's amount of wine, it was like a glass, fortunately she hadn't drunk yet, and drove Zhuang Wanyi's car to send her home, knowing that there was a food street next to their house, she wanted to come and find something to eat, and when she was looking for a restaurant, someone shouted behind: "Doctor Xu." Is it to call her? It seems to be, but no one here will know her, but Xu Xiaoxiao still turned her head: Dong Jiu?! How is he here.
Dong Jiu was actually a little scared when he shouted like this, he was afraid that his hopes would be disappointed, what if it wasn't for Xu Xiaoxiao, when she turned around, Dong Jiu was still a little nervous, until he saw his face, Dong Jiu smiled happily and raised his hand.
Xu Xiaoxiao sat opposite Dong Jiu, picking up the noodles in the bowl.
"Dr. Xu's family doesn't seem to be here, how can you come here to eat."
"Your family shouldn't be here either, aren't you here to eat?"
Dong Jiu smiled: "Dr. Xu knows me very well, and he even knows where my home is."
"Huh?" Xu Xiao smiled for a moment, then suddenly realized something, and glared at Dong Jiu: "Eat well."
The two didn't communicate too much, until they ate a bowl of noodles, Dong Jiu spoke again: "Doctor Xu, how will you go back?"
"Take a taxi."
"It's not good for a girl to take a taxi too late."
Xu Xiaoxiao looked at him, his face full of words: Then do you have any good ideas?
"I'll drive you."
Xu Xiaoxiao still didn't speak, and her eyes fell on his feet.
Dong Jiu also remembered something, and coughed a few times: "Forget, forget, my foot is twisted."
Then he was quiet for a while, and then thought of another idea: "I will accompany Dr. Xu to take a taxi back, and then I will take a taxi back."
"Don't bother, I'll be fine alone."
"Okay"
After that, Dong Jiu didn't speak, he followed Xu Xiaoxiao until she got into the car, and also followed her up, which returned to Xu Xiaoxiao speechless: "Didn't you say you don't have to follow?" Why are you coming with you again? ”
"Isn't that afraid that Dr. Xu will be in danger?"
"I see, the most dangerous thing is you."
Xu Xiaoxiao got out of the car at the gate of the community, and was about to pay, Dong Jiu immediately covered the payment code, "I'll pay, when it is to compensate for the time of Dr. Xu who pretended to be sick at that time." ”
Xu Xiaoxiao was speechless again, when she just paid for the bowl of noodles, Dong Jiu also told her the same.
"Why don't you just give me all your property?"
"Okay." Dong Jiu agreed without hesitation, although he didn't have any savings now, but he had paid off his debts for so many years, and he now had tens of thousands of yuan in hand, although it was not a lot, it might be less than Xu Xiaoxiao's property, but he believed that he would get better and better.
Xu Xiaoxiao didn't speak, she really didn't know what to say.
"See you tomorrow, Dr. Xu."
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow." Xu Xiaoxiao waved his hand at Dong Jiu, thinking in his heart: Don't say goodbye, alas.
When I got home, I saw my parents sitting on the sofa very seriously.
"Mom and Dad, why don't you sleep yet?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the time, it was more than eleven o'clock, and she went to bed early.
Xu Chenghui snorted with his nose, "I thought you weren't coming back, how could your daughter sleep when she stayed outside." ”
"Didn't you make a phone call and say that Ye Lan moved?"
"Moving? I don't know who I'm moving to. Xu Chenghui didn't have a good tone.
Cheng Chenyi touched Xu Chenghui's arm, but Xu Xiaoxiao looked confused, not knowing why her father was so angry.
"Xiaoxiao, it's not that my mother doesn't agree with you to be a partner, but we have to pay attention to proportion."
"What are you talking about, Mom?"
"Don't hide, Mom and Dad have seen it, who is the young man who is you and me downstairs today?"
"Mom, that's my patient, not ......"
"Okay, what kind of patient will send you to the door at night." Xu Chenghui interrupted Xu Xiaoxiao's words, Xu Xiaoxiao felt that she might not be able to communicate with the two of them, so she simply shut up and walked into her room, locked it, Cheng Chenyi called her in the back, she didn't bother to respond, alas, why did she let everything happen today.
After Xu Xiaoxiao entered the room, she lay directly on the bed, restraining herself from thinking about these things.
It's been a headache enough after a day, and now there is a person with the same name and surname as the first year of high school for no reason, what should she do.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Xiaoxiao's mind couldn't help but jump out of the overlap between Dong Jiu, who he knew in his first year of high school, and the person named Dong Jiu now.
Then she shook her head, how much she wished these two were the same person, but how could such a good thing happen in the world, if it was true, why didn't Dong Jiu say it?
In this patient's body, Xu Xiaoxiao did not find the shadow of the person named Dong Jiuren in the first year of high school.
Xu Xiaoxiao simply didn't want to, took out her phone from her pocket, and unlocked the screen.
Her screensaver is a photo of her and Zhuang Wanyi, which has never been changed, Xu Xiaoxiao opened WeChat, and after entering the application password, what caught her eye was Zhuang Wanyi's WeChat, since high school, her WeChat top is Zhuang Wanyi.
Ten years or so of friendship, how enviable should this be? has accompanied her for three years of high school, worked hard together, and also accompanied her college life, entered the society, and has always been by her side.
Xu Xiaoxiao thought of this, and her mood was a little more happy.
Typed a few words past.
"Wanyi, are you there?" After Xu Xiaoxiao sent it over, Zhuang Wanyi also quickly replied.
"What's wrong? Laugh and laugh. This sentence was sent by voice, and after Xu Xiaoxiao heard it, he also sent a voice message.
"I'm about to be annoyed to death, the patient named Dong Jiu was misunderstood by my parents." Xu Xiaoxiao didn't say it clearly, and sent it directly.
"What's the misunderstanding? You can't mistake it for your boyfriend, right? ”
Sure enough, it's a best friend, you can guess this thing, Xu Xiaoxiao's every word doesn't need to be said at all, Zhuang Wanyi is like a roundworm in her heart, she can guess anything.
"Harm, what should I do? How's that going on with you? Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but have a headache.
This matter refers to a major event in Zhuang Wanyi's modeling career, I found a lawyer some time ago, but there was no reply, so Xu Xiaoxiao had to ask again.
"Me, I don't have anything to do, but I don't know if this can be solved, and there has been no answer from the lawyer's office."
After speaking, before Xu Xiaoxiao could finish listening, Zhuang Wanyi sent another voice message.
"Just because of this, I've been idle lately, waiting for a reply from there, and I can't interfere in other things, my reputation is not high, and there is nothing to do about this kind of thing."
"Then why don't you ask? You don't have any connections when you enter this circle, so it's better to be careful in everything. Xu Xiaoxiao reminded.
Then he sent a voice message.
"I'll be resting in two days, so I'll go with you and ask again?"
Xu Xiaoxiao is still a little worried about Zhuang Wanyi, her temperament is a little lazy, she likes to follow fate in everything, if this matter is solved, it will be better, if she can't get a good solution, then she will have a hard time in the future.
"With you as a beautiful woman with me, of course I'm willing." Zhuang Wanyi said with a smile over there, although she didn't really want to care about this matter, she was still more interested in the lawyer, she was not too embarrassed to ask out to talk alone, if Xu Xiaoxiao went with her, it would be the best.
After Xu Xiaoxiao asked about it, Zhuang Wanyi sent another voice message.
"You're not too young, when are you going to fall in love?" Zhuang Wanyi's voice was only two seconds, so she listened to it all at once.
After listening to the voice, Xu Xiaoxiao didn't rush to reply.
God, why is Zhuang Wanyi urging her to fall in love?? Is she a guinea pig when it comes to falling in love???
Put your phone directly on the bedside table, charge it, and get ready to take a shower, then read a book, play a few games, and then rest.
The sound of water came from the bathroom, and there were bursts of WeChat ringtones on the bedside table.
"Xiaoxiao, what are we going to prepare that day? What am I going to dress up for? ”
"Do you think it's better to be more mature, or to be a girl?"
Zhuang Wanyi's figure is very good, and her face is not bad, so she looks good in whatever clothes she wears, but she still wants to dress herself up beautifully, after all, she was so sloppy and a little embarrassed when she met for the first time.
"Why don't we come out and meet?"
Speaking of this, Zhuang Wanyi saw that Xu Xiaoxiao didn't reply, so she thought that Xu Xiaoxiao was busy, so she didn't bother.
Soon, Xu Xiaoxiao came out of the bathroom, changed into a comfortable and clean pajamas, and took a book from the table and began to study it carefully.
The study was nearly an hour.
Dong Jiu's side.
Because Dong Jiu's house is quite far away from Xu Xiaoxiao's home, after Xu Xiaoxiao went upstairs, Dong Jiu took a taxi and left to go home.
As soon as he got in the car, before he could tell the driver where he was going, Su Ze's phone came from his mobile phone, and Dong Jiu did not hesitate and connected the phone directly.
"Dong Jiu, can you come over here for something?" Su Ze's voice was a little serious, which made Dong Jiu also sit up straight.
"I've got time, what's wrong?" Dong Jiu asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that a girl named Zhuang Wanyi has something wrong and asks our lawyer to solve it." Su Ze replied truthfully.
After hearing this name, Dong Jiu's body trembled a little, Zhuang Wanyi? What happened to her? She played the best with Xu Xiaoxiao, but Dong Jiu has always regarded Zhuang Wanyi as a friend.
"Zhuang Wanyi?" Dong Jiu repeated the name, seemingly a little incredulous.
On the other side, Su Ze had some doubts when he heard Dong Jiu's words, could it be that Dong Jiu knew? Is it the case that Dong Jiu pulled over?
The smile that Dong Jiu put on his lips, although his voice was very soft, Su Ze still heard it.
After another pause of silence, Su Ze pursed his lips, he said how could this name be so familiar... Recently, he has been really busy and dizzy, Zhuang Wanyi Dong Jiu mentioned it to her, but he didn't mention it as many times as Xu Xiaoxiao, so he didn't have much impression.
Su Ze thought of this girl in his mind, well, he actually thought it was a little cute.
In fact, after listening to Zhuang Wanyi's words, Su Ze searched for this person on the Internet, but unfortunately his reputation was too small, and the information collected was not very comprehensive, so it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the falsehood in Zhuang Wanyi's words.
However, he felt that this girl would not lie, there were too many such things in her circle, and he also wanted to help solve it, but he really couldn't find any evidence to prove that what Zhuang Wanyi said was true.
Any lawsuit, no matter how it is resolved, needs to prove the authenticity of this matter, and if there is evidence to prove that what Zhuang Wanyi said is true, then it will be easy to do.
"What happened to her?" Dong Jiu came back to his senses and continued to ask.
"Shall we meet and talk in detail?" Su Ze felt that this matter could not be explained clearly in one or two sentences on the phone, so he could only ask Dong Jiu to come to the place of work as soon as possible.
"Okay, I'm in Xu Xiaoxiao's community now, it should take a long time."
When Dong Jiu said this, he immediately asked the driver to drive to the law firm.
"It's okay, I'll wait for you in the company." Su Ze was also about to sort out the information on Zhuang Wanyi's matter, so he was not in a hurry.
"Okay." Dong Jiu nodded.
If he can help Zhuang Wanyi, then he is definitely willing, so he is still a little anxious, after all, he is Xu Xiaoxiao's best friend.
As the saying goes, if you want to get a person, you must start with a friend, as long as Zhuang Wanyi passes the test and lets her say two more good words in front of Xu Xiaoxiao, why can't she catch up with Xu Xiaoxiao?
Dong Jiu still has some careful thoughts of his own.
Dong Jiu didn't talk to the driver for a few words, but the driver was a little anxious when he saw the guy, thinking that it should be a matter of work, and the car drove a little fast.
Soon the car drove to the lawyer's office, Dong Jiu scanned the WeChat QR code on the car, and after turning around, he shook the mobile phone screen towards the driver, as if to say that he had paid.
Dong Jiu quickly found Su Ze, and Su Ze also sorted out the information and took a cup of coffee to Dong Jiu.
"Can you be sure that this Zhuang Wanyi is the Zhuang Wanyi from your high school?" Su Ze is still a little skeptical, where did such a coincidental thing come from in the world? As a lawyer myself, did you still meet the partner Dong Jiu from high school?
Although he said that, Su Ze still found a photo of Zhuang Wanyi from the Internet and headed towards Dong Jiu.
"Yes, that's right." After Dong Jiu glanced at it, he was more sure of his thoughts.
"What's wrong with her?" Without waiting for Su Ze to continue to speak, Dong Jiu asked again.
"It's not that simple." Su Ze took out a notebook and a pen from his leather bag on the side.
"The company she entered helped Zhuang Wanyi take the endorsement, and originally said that it would be divided into three or seven, and the company would take three percent Zhuang Wanyi would take seventy percent, but in the end, there was not a penny."
Su Ze is still a little annoying when he says this, although he and Zhuang Wanyi met for the first time not very well, and Zhuang Wanyi is dressed very casually, but this company can't deceive other little girls.
"As for why, the company's answer is that Zhuang Wanyi broke the filming period during this period, and the company wants to take her remuneration this time."
Dong Jiu nodded and did not answer.
"After the equipment was damaged, the company said that it was forgotten, that is, it did not need to be compensated, but it took other people's remuneration."
"Moreover, there is something even more excessive, before the contract, it was said that Zhuang Wanyi could walk the catwalk, but he didn't even notify him of a day, and he didn't let Zhuang Wanyi go, you say, what should I do about this matter?"
After Su Ze finished telling the truth, he also took Zhuang Wanyi's information in this circle to show Dong Jiu.
"This lawsuit will definitely suffer a lot, and the people in their circle are not easy to mess with." Dong Jiu was a little angry after hearing this, although there are many such things that have been exposed in some entertainment companies, but there are many more that have not been exposed.
