CHAPTER XXVII

The matter of the spar mine was quickly put to the back of his mind, and Wei Xiao was almost annoyed to death by Wei Jianguo and them recently.

"It's not that I said Wei Xiao, it's not that I really have any opinions about you," Lin Jingxian stroked her hair and looked arrogant: "Mainly, even if your company is a well-known company, but you work overtime until midnight every day, do you know what the neighbors around you say?" ”

Wei Xiao glanced at her and asked unceremoniously: "Is it me or you who are talking about?" ”

"How can you talk like that?" Lin Jingxian glanced at her disapprovingly and said, "We are a family, and if others point fingers at you, will it not affect us?" If nothing else, it's your brother'......."

"Who's my brother?"

Lin Jingxian was suddenly choked, and her expression and attitude were not very good immediately, and she cautiously looked at Wei Jianguo, who was silent next to her, and finally did not have a seizure: "Even on the side of Zhongchuang, someone came up to ask, saying that they had seen your past with a man at night." These things, how do you let us go back? ”

"It's a very simple thing, just say that you and I don't know each other, right?" Wei Xiao curled the corners of his mouth, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "This is once and for all, isn't it?" ”

"Bastard!" Wei Jianguo slapped the table suddenly, obviously angered by Wei Xiao's words: "As we all know, you are my daughter, can you still say that you don't know?" ”

Wei Xiao didn't say anything, one of the things she hated about Wei Jianguo the most was this, if she couldn't say it or was angry, she always liked to roar loudly, as if the louder it was, the more reasonable it was.

"I'm going to the factory." The expression on Wei Ming's face was still faint, and he got up and went to the sofa to get his mobile phone and bag.

Seeing that he was leaving, Lin Jingxian immediately didn't care about Wei Xiao, and immediately got up eagerly: "Don't rest at home for a while?" Be careful when driving on the way to the factory, I heard that the road has not been smooth recently. ”

"Well, I know what to expect."

"Will you come back in the evening? Cooking you a supper, do you have any special dishes you want to eat, how about making your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs? It's been a long time since I've done it, and I haven't heard you talk about anything you want to eat lately. ”

"It's all right," Wei Ming hesitated slightly when he opened the door, then nodded and said, "Let's see it in the evening, I should be back." ”

A bright smile suddenly appeared on Lin Jingxian's face, and she responded several times in succession.

Wei Ming has rarely come back since he bought a house and moved out two years ago, and he doesn't know what's wrong this year, so he comes back every once in a while. Like now, coming back for dinner and going to the factory, and coming back in the middle of the night is almost impossible to happen before.

It's just that many things really can't be studied in detail, Wei Ming is busy in the factory, Wei Jianguo will feel relieved and moved, and Lin Jingxian will be extremely concerned about making supper early and waiting. But when it comes to Wei Xiao, when he comes back a few times after working overtime, he is crowned with all kinds of broken thoughts.

Wei Xiao coldly watched the interaction between their mother and son, turned around and walked to his room, and just after walking a few steps, he heard Wei Jianguo speak in a calm voice: "What are you doing at that job, working overtime until you come back in the middle of the night every day." ”

"Look at the information, review, check the community." Wei Xiao stared at the handle on the door of his room and began to endorse.

"It doesn't look like a particularly promising job, and you can still not go home in the middle of the night?"

"Work needs."

"Heh, what kind of bullshit work needs, don't come home in the middle of the night, and think you do something."

Wei Xiao still didn't have any ideas to explain, and the living room suddenly fell into silence, leaving only Lin Jingxian to clean up the table, and the slight sound of the dishes and chopsticks touching each other made the current atmosphere even more awkward.

For a long time, when Wei Xiao was hesitating whether to go back to his room directly, Wei Jianguo finally spoke: "If you really don't want to stay in this house, no one will force you, think about it yourself." ”

This time, Wei Jianguo rarely slapped the table or yelled, and Lin Jingxian also did not fan the flames beside him, and even his favorite yin and yang weird laughter did not appear.

It's already pitch black outside the window, and the summer nights are no longer as quiet as they were some time ago, and the various cicadas and birds still don't want to stop even at this point. It sounds so lively, Wei Xiao used to always like to go out on summer evenings, and he wouldn't be too scared, but now he just feels that all this is too noisy.

"Got it." Wei Xiao heard his answer, and walked straight to the door of his room, opening and closing the door, no different from usual.

If you don't want to stay in this house, no one will force you.

Another meaning is that no one wants to keep you at all.

Wei Xiao lay on the bed weakly, and after lying on his stomach for a while, he turned his head and looked at the oversized backpack hanging on the wall in a daze. Because she needs to carry a knife out every day recently, she simply bought a suitable backpack to replace the tennis bag, although sometimes it still looks a little strange and abrupt, but it is not so conspicuous anyway. Tang Zhidao is placed inside, and there is no need to take it out and hang it after coming back every day.

"Wait at home for me to come back."

"Wait for me to come back."

Wei Xiao closed his eyes and let himself stop looking, but the relevant images were still circling in his mind.

The fragments when Xiang Lan left were broken down into frame-by-frame clips, but they were not too long. The other party's smile and even the specific face gradually became blurred, and now there is only a general and unspecific appearance left.

Perhaps, after a while or a few years, there will really be only a vague silhouette and those two sentences that are repeatedly emphasized. Until the end, he completely forgot about it, just like Wei Jianguo, as if he had completely forgotten the existence of Xiang Lan.

Just when Wei Xiao was drowsy, a slight vibration came from the pillow that was pressing the phone, buzzing, ringing for a while and then continuing to start. After repeating this cycle for a while, Wei Xiao reached out and pulled a few times near the pillow with his faint memory, took the mobile phone and squinted his eyes slightly.

It was Qin Zhao's call.

Wei Xiao suddenly woke up completely, and hurriedly turned over and sat up, and before he could go through the message sent to understand what was going on, the other party's phone called again.

"Still awake? I thought you were asleep. Qin Zhao's voice came out of the earpiece.

Wei Xiao was speechless, glanced at the time, and was a little speechless: "What you said is a bit contradictory, you called me countless times at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and even if I was asleep, I was awakened by you." ”

"Isn't this eleven forty-five? Where did twelve o'clock come from? ”

“…… It's also rigorous," Wei Xiao turned over, the sleepiness had dissipated without a trace, and his tone was a lot more helpless: "Okay, then boss, you called me at 11:45 in the middle of the night, is there something wrong?" ”

"I went to Hejiangmen, and it didn't feel right over there." After Qin Zhao finished speaking, he probably felt that it was a little unreasonable for her to come out to work overtime temporarily, so she reluctantly changed her words after being silent: "Can you find a reason to come out?" ”

I made countless calls in a row, and now I haven't said that I can not go, obviously this time the matter is not small, Wei Xiao smiled at the phone while getting up: "What?" Mr. Qin can still help me think of a reason. ”

"It's not impossible," Qin Zhao also laughed, and said, "Am I not your blind date, just say that you go out on a date at night and look at the stars and the moon, which is reasonable." It's just that the tone doesn't sound as relaxed as usual.

Wei Xiao smiled: "It doesn't have to be like this, wait for me to come out, where can I find you?" ”

"Send me your address, and I'll pick you up directly."

"yes, okay." After Wei Xiao hung up the phone, he sent the location over, didn't turn on the light, walked to the door and listened to the sound in the living room.

The house is not new and the soundproofing is very average. Wei Xiao didn't hear any movement outside, and carefully opened the door to look outside.

Sure enough, the living room was pitch black. Lin Jingxian and Wei Jianguo both slept early because of their age, and they usually didn't wait for Wei Ming to come back. Wei Xiao returned to the room and used the light of the flashlight to find the rope and tools he had placed in the depths of the cabinet.

Qin Zhao's message had already returned, saying that he would arrive in twenty minutes. Wei Xiao simply washed and cleaned up, changed his clothes, and cautiously looked around the window.

She was already familiar with the way out of the window, but it used to be two or three o'clock in the morning, and the people around her were sure that they were asleep and would not be discovered. It's the first time I've gone out at this point, and if you're bumped into by a neighbor who sleeps late or something, it's going to be fun.

In that case, you might be able to move out directly. But in fact, when you think about it, you really don't have to find such a reason to move out.

Thinking of this, Wei Xiao's mood that had finally risen fell a lot.

Soon, Qin Zhao's message came again, saying that he was already downstairs. Wei Xiao poked his head out and glanced at the road, and sure enough, he saw a car parked on the side of the road, and the people in the car waved at him.

Wei Xiao replied to the message, then threw the rope out of the window, and jumped lightly and turned onto the windowsill. Pulling the rope, he began to move down with ease.

Without professional training, the first time he went on like this, Wei Xiao still felt a little frightened. After climbing down, the hands were trembling slightly, and I still remember it vividly when I think about it.

It's just that there won't be such a situation anymore, and the whole process from the upstairs doesn't take more than a minute, which can be described as "flowing water".

Qin Zhao's car was parked across the street, and when Wei Xiao walked out of the alleyway and was about to cross the road, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a white car parked at the intersection not far ahead. The window was rolled down, and a red dot flashed there.

By the moonlight and the street lamp next to it, you can vaguely distinguish the number of the license plate on it.

It turned out to be Wei Ming's car.

On a big night, what's the deal with not going upstairs and parking your car downstairs to smoke?
