Chapter 298: Xu Yafei (8)

Xu Yafei and Yu Qian searched around the restaurant for a long time and didn't see anyone, so they asked passers-by and the owners of several nearby shops.

When it comes to the unkempt old Chinese man, they all have the impression that he has been in the area for a long time. There were also people who cared about him and asked him, and they all knew that he was looking for his son. But he was a little mentally disturbed, he couldn't say his son's name, and he didn't know where his son was, but someone had seen the photo in his hand, which was a Chinese boy in his teens.

I couldn't find anyone, so I had to give up.

Xu Yafei sent Yu Qian back to his residence, and on the way, he was very silent.

"Do you know that old man?" She couldn't help but ask.

After a while, Xu Yafei said, "I don't know." ”

But Yu Qian trusted her instincts, Xu Yafei's reaction after seeing the old man was unusual, at least not like a reaction to a stranger. And he had always been warm-hearted, but today he was unusually indifferent to the poor old man.

But what would he have to do with the old man? If so, why would he deny that he knew him? She didn't know any of that.

sent Yu Qian to her residence, and Xu Yafei left.

Back at the apartment, Yu Qian had just taken a shower and lay down when she received a call from Xue Li.

"I'm sorry, I haven't had time to talk about work yet."

Without waiting for Xue Li to speak first, Yu Qian admitted her mistake first.

She has always been serious at work, and she never feels that her boss is her younger brother.

How did Xue Li say that he was not in a hurry, and asked her if she had seen Xu Yafei.

She said that when she saw it, Xue Li laughed.

"That's good, don't worry, have fun first, have fun, and wait until you've had enough fun."

In fact, Yu Qian knew in her heart that Xue Li had other intentions when she sent her. But she has always made a clear distinction between public and private, and she definitely has enough calmness and sanity in her work.

"Your sister is not such an unreliable person, don't worry, I'll go and do this first tomorrow."

Xue Li said, "Sister, I want you to be happy, nothing is as important as your happiness." ”

Yu Qian was a little moved in her heart.

Xue Li rarely said such emotional words in front of her, although she always knew that he cared about her sister, he never expressed it directly.

He now knows how to express it more and more, which shows that he has really grown up and understands the value of family affection.

The next morning, she went out with the prepared materials, ready to negotiate the contract first. It was the first thing she did when she came to Los Angeles.

Passing by the overpass where she met the old man last night, she remembered the old man who was looking for her son, so she couldn't help but stop.

Under the overpass, there sat two or three beggars in rags, but the old man was not there.

Where could he go to find his son? With his mental condition, when will he find his son?

Retracted her gaze and turned her head, Yu Qian suddenly found that the old man was sitting on the steps of the overpass, looking at the people passing by one after another.

He was about fifty at most, but his eyes seemed to have been through vicissitudes, and they were cloudy like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

Yu Qian walked over, squatted in front of him, and asked him, "Old man, have you found your son?" ”

The old man just shook his head, his hands crossed and rubbed together, looking sad and helpless.

Yu Qian felt that he was really pitiful, and asked, "Old man, do you remember me?" We saw it last night. ”

The old man looked at Yu Qian, his eyes were blank, and he didn't know if he remembered or not.

"Old man, I heard that you have been looking for a long time, when will you find it? Maybe your son is really no longer here? ”

Hearing Yu Qian say this, the old man shook his head faster.

"No, my son is here, my son is out, he is here."

Yu Qian knew that it was unreasonable to talk to him, but she didn't worry about him looking for him blindly alone, with his current mental condition, it was very likely that something would happen.

"Old man, I am Chinese like you, if you believe me, I will help you find your son together in the future, how about it?"

The old man blinked twice, a little excited.

"Really? You're going to help me find my son? ”

Yu Qian smiled and nodded, "Really, but this matter can't be rushed, I'll find a place to settle you down first, and then we'll look for it slowly, okay?" ”

The old man struggled for a while, and finally nodded and said yes.

Yu Qian brought him back to the apartment, there was a single room next door to the apartment she lived in, she found the landlord and rented the house next door for this old man to live in.

She bought some new clothes and daily necessities for the old man, and let the old man take a bath and change into it, but fortunately, the old man still had no problem bathing himself.

While the old man was taking a bath, Yu Qian went to cook and cook.

When the old man took a bath and changed his clothes, he came out, and Yu Qian's meal was ready.

She laid out the meal and stared at the old man for a long time.

She found that after the old man washed his face and changed into clean clothes, he was a completely different person. He was actually an old man with good facial features, and he should have been very handsome when he was young.

She served rice to the old man, and while watching the old man eat, she asked, "Old man, do you remember what your son looks like?" ”

At the mention of his son, the old man stopped eating, and his whole eyes and expression softened a lot.

"My son, he's so good-looking, so tall, with such big eyes, and he smiles like this."

The old man put down his chopsticks and gestured as he spoke.

After hearing this, Yu Qian was still very confused, and still didn't know what his son looked like, so she could only smile awkwardly.

"I know, you eat first, when you are full, we will have the strength to find it."

After the old man finished eating, she washed the dishes, and then planned to take out the pile of clothes that the old man had changed out and throw away, because it was too broken and dirty, and there was no value in washing.

She told the old man to take a nap, and then went out with her clothes in her hands, and before she could go out of the door, something suddenly fell out of the clothes in her hand.

She looked down and saw a picture.

She picked it up in surprise, looked closely, and was dumbfounded.

It turned out that the photo of the old man's son had been in his clothes and had not been lost, but the old man was mentally disturbed and probably forgot where he was, and he was in a hurry when he couldn't find it, so there was the scene they saw last night.

Looking at the old man again, he did not listen to her and lay down on the bed, but stood by the window and looked out, his eyes showing that longing, longing, and sadness again.

The family affection that blood is thicker than water is rooted in his soul, so even if he is mentally disordered and forgets a lot of things, he has never forgotten the kind of concern for his son.

She didn't hand the photo back to the old man, but put it away for the time being.

Putting down her clothes again, she made the old man's bed and let him go to bed for a while.

She didn't know how long he had been sleeping in the open, and she had heard from others that he had been looking for his son for a long time, so many people in the neighborhood knew about him. It must have been a long time since he had slept well in a comfortable bed.

Seeing that the old man closed his eyes, Yu Qian left the room, picked up the contract again and went out.

I went to the company where I wanted to talk about cooperation, found the person in charge of the company, and she negotiated the contract very smoothly.

Coming out of the company, she stood on the side of the road and called Xu Yafei.

When she told him she had taken the old man in, there was no sound on the other end of the phone for a long time.

"What's wrong with you?" She asked him.

"It's nothing, I just think you're too kind." Xu Yafei's tone was light.

Yu Qian said that she was very happy to negotiate the contract today, and was going to buy some vegetables to make a sumptuous dinner to celebrate, and invited him to come along.

She was afraid that he would refuse, but fortunately he only thought about it briefly and agreed.

After buying vegetables from the supermarket, Xu Yafei had been waiting for her outside the supermarket for a while.

They walked all the way back to the apartment, and after Yu Qian put down the dishes, she led Xu Yafei to the room where the old man lived.

The old man had woken up, and he was sitting at the head of the bed, his eyes glazed over, probably thinking about his son again.

The old man who has been cleaned up is very different from yesterday.

Yu Qian had already walked in, but Xu Yafei stopped at the door and stared at the old man on the bed for a long time.

Yu Qian took the old man into her apartment, asked him to sit on the sofa, and then prepared to cook.

Halfway through, she took out a bag of apples she bought in the supermarket, handed a knife to Xu Yafei, and asked him to peel apples for the old man to eat.

Xu Yafei stood with a knife for a while before sitting down and taking out an apple to peel.

Yu Qian washed the dishes, put the ingredients for the soup into the pot, walked to the kitchen door and glanced at it,

In the living room, the old man sat silently, Xu Yafei sat not far away, silently peeling apples, and the two didn't seem to communicate.

While eating, the old man looked at the dishes on the table, and did not gobble up as he had done last night.

He didn't busy moving his chopsticks, but looked at the fish soup on the table, and the corners of his lips rose up.

"My son loves fish the most."

At this moment, his face exudes the soft light of father's love, and even his son's favorite fish remembers that at this moment, he does not look like a mentally disordered old man.

Yu Qian looked at Xu Yafei, and the chopsticks he stretched out froze in the air, as if he had been touched.

But in the blink of an eye, the old man became sad again.

"Son, my son, where the hell are you?"

Yu Qian sighed, sandwiched some dishes for the old man, and persuaded, "Don't worry, I promised to help you find your son, you believe me, I will definitely help you find your son." ”

Originally, it was a sumptuous meal, full of color, flavor and flavor, and I don't know what's going on, but it's not a good taste.

After eating, Yu Qian washed the dishes and sent the old man back to his room to settle down.

It was already dark, and Xu Yafei said that he was leaving.

obviously had a lot to say, but at this moment, Yu Qian felt as if her throat was stuck by something, and she couldn't make a sound.

Hearing the sound of his footsteps getting farther and farther away, and the sound of the elevator opening and closing, Yu Qian hesitated for a few seconds and chased out.
