Chapter 33: A Father's Love Is Like a Mountain (1)
According to the content of the contract, I completed the soul handover with Zheng Xinyi.
When I left the house, it was getting late, the street lights were lit up one after another, and I unconsciously walked to the school gate again, and then I remembered an embarrassing thing - I forgot to ask Liu Mo to help me locate the location of Zheng Xinyi's house!
Because at the beginning of each task, the current location of the contract owner will be displayed, which can only ensure that I can find the contract owner in time, and the others need to be searched again, this time in order to come out early to breathe, the task is urgent, and there is no ability to learn search and positioning with Liu Mo, Xi Xiao is not there, his mobile phone is not on the battery, and it has long been turned off, and I put it in Zheng Xinyi's schoolbag, and all the bad luck is rushed together, which really makes me a little tricky.
I was worried that I couldn't find a clue, and the skin of my legs clinging to the pocket of my pants felt a vibration, I took the opportunity to touch my pocket, Zheng Xinyi's mobile phone, the contact displayed on the screen was my father, I had an idea, and I thought that I could find some excuse to let Zheng Xinyi's father come to pick me up, but when I picked up the phone, the title of father came to my mouth, but I couldn't call it anyway, so I hesitated for a long time, and only said softly: "Hey." ”
"Xinyi, why haven't you arrived home yet, where are you?" Zheng Xinyi's father's voice is very strong.
I think if my father was still alive and didn't see me home so late, he would be very worried! In this way, my mind showed my father's old appearance, and I poked my tears fiercely, "Dad, I miss you very much, I miss you very much!" ”
"Xinyi, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying, where the hell are you? Zheng Xinyi's father heard the cry, and couldn't help but add some anxious tones.
I came back to my senses from the nostalgia for my father and wiped my tears, "I'm at the school gate!" ”
"Okay, don't leave, I'll have someone pick you up!"
"Hmm!"
After a brief conversation, the other end hung up and didn't ask too much about why he didn't go home.
At this time, a light rain began to fall in the sky, sporadically falling on my face, a trace of coldness mixed with residual tears, mixed with cold wind, standing on the empty street looked even more lonely and helpless.
I put my hands in my jacket pockets, craned my neck, and paced back and forth at the school gate to ward off the chill until I saw two lights approaching.
A black private car stopped in front of me, and then two bodyguard-looking people stepped out of the car, one of them was silent, just holding out his umbrella and holding it above my head, while the other person in charge of opening the door said, "Miss, the chairman sent us to pick you up!" ”
I can't believe it, it turns out that Zheng Xinyi has such a family background, but what makes me even more incomprehensible is: Since her family is illustrious, why does Zheng Xinyi still have to please others in a low way?
"Miss, the chairman is talking about business, so let's take you back to your residence first, and then come to you when he is done." This time it was a third person besides the two bodyguards who spoke - the driver.
"Well, good!" I had never been treated like this, and I was too nervous to say a word.
Silence all the way......
The car drove to an ordinary apartment building and stopped driving, as if it had reached its destination, and when I got out of the car, the rain stopped, and I found the place where Zheng Xinyi lived under the escort of two bodyguards.
Standing at the door, took out the key found in the schoolbag before, just about to insert it into the lock hole, someone opened the door from the house, it was a middle-aged woman in her 50s wearing an apron, saw me quickly wiped her hands with an apron, took the schoolbag and welcomed me into the house, "Miss, you are finally back, the chairman has called you a lot, you didn't answer, and called home again, seeing that you haven't arrived home yet, I'm afraid it's a hurry, it's okay, it's okay, and I've arrived home safely!" ”
Before this, Zheng Xinyi had never mentioned her family affairs to me, and these scenes that can only be seen in TV dramas had to make me a little confused, tilt my head, and pop out of my mouth: "Are you ......?" "I knew that asking this question as Zheng Xinyi would make the people around me feel very strange, but I still couldn't control my curiosity.
The middle-aged woman was indeed as I expected, she was a little puzzled by my reaction, and pulled out a hand and touched my forehead, "Oh, my eldest lady, I'm the nanny Aunt Yi, isn't it too cold and frozen, why are you still talking nonsense, you don't know me?" ”
Listening to what she said, I was also relieved, these people in front of me did not doubt my identity because of my carelessness, thinking about it, they have no reason to doubt the daughter of the owner, after all, I am facing them as Zheng Xinyi now.
One of the bodyguards answered the phone in a hurry, and then said to me: "Miss, the chairman has finished talking about business and is rushing here, it should be almost there." ”
"Okay, I'm a little dizzy, I want to go back to my room and rest for a while!" Actually, I'm not dizzy at all, I just want to escape from the sight of these people, and I'm really afraid that another one will accidentally reveal my true identity.
"It must be a cold, come into the room, cover the quilt and rest for a while, I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup to warm up, and then find some medicine, if you have a cold, it's terrible." Aunt Yi carried my schoolbag in one hand and put her arm around my shoulder with the other, sent me into the room, and helped me take off my shoes and cover the quilt.
"Thank you!" Growing up, I have always been very polite.
"Miss, you are finally willing to speak to me calmly." Aunt Yi suddenly showed a happy expression, and after speaking, she carefully folded the quilt for me, and then turned around and walked out of the room.
I lay quietly on the bed alone, observing the surrounding environment, the decoration in the room is very simple, coupled with Zheng Xinyi's usual dress, I still can't believe that she is a rich daughter.
Moreover, in the conversation with Aunt Yi just now, it was obvious that my thank you surprised her, as if she had been surprised, could it be that the relationship between Zheng Xinyi and her was not harmonious in the past?
Zheng Xinyi must have a lot of secrets that no one knows!
"Where's Xinyi?" A familiar voice came from the living room, it was Zheng Xinyi's father.
"Chairman, Miss is resting in the bedroom, she may have a cold!" Aunt Yi responded.
"I'll go see her!" As the footsteps got closer, I knew that the moment of calm for one was coming to an end.
The moment the door was opened, I pretended to close my eyes, still nervous, and came up with many versions of what I was about to say, because it was the first time that I had to complete the whole task alone, and I had to recognize someone else's father as a father.
"Xinyi, what else is wrong with you?" Zheng Xinyi's father sat on the edge of the bed.
I must not be able to pretend to be asleep anymore, but I still have to do a full set of plays, learn to look like I just woke up every time, rub my eyes and sit up, and after several mental preparations, the word "Dad" finally blurted out.
found that Zheng Xinyi's father and Aunt Yi made similar expressions, "Xinyi, can you call me again?" ”
The family's reaction was very abnormal, but there was no other countermeasure for a while, so they had to call again: "Dad! ”
"Eh, good boy, Xinyi has grown up and is sensible!" Father Zheng is full of white hair, his face is a little vicissitudes, the years have drawn furrows on his forehead, and the corners of his eyes have been filled with delicate wrinkles, the age should be at least 65 years old, and Zheng Xinyi is only in the second year of junior high school, so he can be regarded as an old man.
After learning that Zheng Xinyi has such an unusual family background, I seem to have further plans for how to help Zheng Xinyi resolve the crisis, no matter what kind of estrangement Zheng Xinyi had from this family, from now on I can be coquettish in front of Zheng's father for her, and comfort the old father's love for his daughter, in short, no father wants to see his daughter wronged in front of others, it can be said: "The child who can cry has candy to eat, and the child who can coax the coquettish!" ”
In my impression, I feel that everyone who is old enough to have children will cherish their hard-won children more, and I decided to use this as a breakthrough for this contract mission, although the word "utilization" sounds very unsatisfactory, but it is only three days, of course, we must choose the most certain, the method with the greatest chance of winning.
"Dad, I was too ignorant before, which made you sad, and today I suddenly understood that Dad cares about me, I'm sorry, I hope you haven't been too disappointed in me." Seeing that Dad Zheng is still immersed in emotion, he must strike while the iron is hot, although I don't know anything before, but it is easy to play the emotional card!
My words brought tears to Father Zheng's eyes, "It's me who says I'm sorry, Xinyi, I've been waiting for this day for three years, and since your mother left, you haven't ...... Hey, forget it, forget it, I'm happy today, don't mention the past. ”
As the chairman, Father Zheng actually wiped his tears in front of so many subordinates, saying that men don't flick when they have tears, but no matter how powerful a man is, when he has a baby that needs to be guarded, this baby has become his weakness.
At this time, I may have been influenced by my father's love, and I envied Zheng Xinyi for having my father's care, but I couldn't control it all of a sudden, and tears crackled down.
"Xinyi, why are you crying again? Did you suffer any grievances at school? Dad Zheng hugged me who was crying.
"Dad, I'm so tired, the people around me are bullying me, did I do something wrong and disgusted them, otherwise why are they all prejudiced against me, even my best friend ignores me, I really didn't steal!" I thought of myself when I was in junior high school, and combined with the mood I should have had at that time, I cried even more.
"Who said you steal? What the hell is going on, who is making my daughter so sad? Dad Zheng patted me on the back.
When the opportunity came, I straightened up, left Zheng's father's arms, and retold everything for him from Zheng Xinyi's birthday party to today.
"Xinyi, you haven't let me worry about it since elementary school, after that, our family has changed, you don't want to admit that it's my daughter anywhere, before going through the junior high school admission procedures, you say that you have to move your name and your mother's name out of our family's household registration book, I know, after all, I owe your mother and daughter too much! I can't resist you, so I have to ask someone to get things done. Dad Zheng wiped away his tears again.
"You didn't let me come forward on the day of admission, I can think of it, the guardian column, you must have only written your mother's name, after entering the school, even every parent-teacher meeting was paid to invite people to participate, until later, you proposed to move out and live alone, of course I can't rest assured as a father, fortunately I found Aunt Yi to take care of you, you have never told me about the bits and pieces in school, and now I have been so wronged, how can I not feel distressed?"
Dad Zheng said a lot, some of which must have been pressed in his heart for a long time.
No matter how much his former daughter didn't like him, he still guarded him silently, Zheng Xinyi for him, it was a unique, priceless treasure of flesh and blood given to him in this world.
Father's love is like a mountain, and what he said is not false at all.
