Chapter 34, The Old Man Next Door
The two studied for a long time, but they didn't come up with a really reliable reason, so they stopped dwelling on this problem.
Chu Fan asked, "Senior brother, is there anything important that you came to see me this time?" ”
He knows his senior brother very well, and every time he comes to see him, although he will bring some food and play, most of them are for him to do some things and assign him some tasks.
Because his father was not around, Chu Fan was also obedient to his senior brother, and most of the time the senior brother would not give him too difficult tasks, after all, he couldn't get out of the East China Sea at that time.
"......" The old man shook his head, sighed, the wrinkles on his face became more conspicuous, and he said: "There is something for you to do, but you have lost your cultivation, I'm afraid you can't do it......"
"What then? Why don't you wait, Senior Brother, I'm restarting my cultivation now, and I'm going to do that when I recover my cultivation. Chu Fan said.
"By then, it's too late." The old man waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll think of another way, it's good for you to experience it in this city." As he spoke, the old man patted Chu Fan on the shoulder and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Chu Fan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Senior brother, what happened, you haven't told me yet." "Seeing that Senior Brother is so anxious, I'm afraid something big has happened.
"You should improve your strength as soon as possible, and when the time is right, I will tell you again." With that, the old man's figure jumped up and turned into a streamer and fled away.
"......" Chu Fan looked bitter, you must know that his cultivation was much higher than that of his senior brother before, although he was a junior brother, he had to come to him for help with many things that his senior brother couldn't do.
But now, he has completely become a "junior brother", and he can't help at all.
Chu Fan, who was helpless, had to leave dejectedly and ran to the Liu family's villa, muttering in his heart: "What is Senior Brother trying to do with me?" It's mysterious, it's true. ”
The so-called curiosity killed the cat, but he, a cheap senior brother, aroused his curiosity, but he just left, making Chu Fan's heart itch like a cat scratching.
"Alas, if I had known, I wouldn't have left the East China Sea Border." Chu Fan said with some regret.
When he walked to the door of the villa, he found that he couldn't get in, and he was in too much of a hurry when he went out, so he closed the door casually and locked it himself, which made Chu Fan depressed again.
"That's bad luck." Chu Fan complained, and said in his heart, how come I am like an unlucky person after I get out of the East China Sea border.
Chu Fan had to sit at the door of the villa with a bitter face, waiting for Liu Mengting to come back.
……
In the courtyard of the villa adjacent to the Liu family's villa, an old man with white hair was looking at Chu Fan from a distance.
A young man beside him also looked at him, and said to the old man, "Old chief, is there anything special about that young man?" ”
The old man, who was called the chief, shook his head and did not answer his words, but pointed to Chu Fan's villa and asked, "Who are the residents of that villa?" ”
"The head of the report is a businessman named Liu Sihai, and he can also rank among the top few in the business community of the entire H city." The young man said.
Because the chief lives here, they basically have the information of the surrounding households.
"Then this young man, is it Liu Sihai's child?" The chief asked again.
"It shouldn't be, chief, according to the information, this Liu Sihai has no son, only one daughter, who just finished the college entrance examination this year and was admitted to Yenching University." The young man said.
"Well, it seems that it should be the child of Liu Sihai's relative." The chief said with a little contemplation, "It's kind of interesting. ”
"Chief, this kid shouldn't be anything special, you can feel the stupidity in him from so far away." The young man felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the chief say good things about other young people in front of him.
"Okay Xiao Luo, come with me to take a look." So saying, the old chief got up and walked out.
Xiao Luo was a little optimistic about Chu Fan, and said: "Chief, he is just a little kid, how can I trouble you to run in person, as long as you give an order, I will tie him up." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Luo glanced at Chu Fan with some resentment in his eyes.
But who knew that Chu Fan seemed to have eyes all over his body, his head turned suddenly, and he looked at Xiao Luo, staring at it, Chu Fan frowned.
He had never offended this person, but he saw hostility in the eyes of the other party, which made Chu Fan a little uncomfortable.
However, when Chu Fan looked at this person's side, he saw an old man with a kind face, which reminded Chu Fan of his senior brother.
The kind old man smiled at him, making people feel like a spring breeze, and he also nodded and waved his hand to the old man.
Soon, the old man got up and left, and took the young man Xiao Luo to the gate of the Liu family's villa.
Seeing that the old man was coming, Chu Fan hurriedly went out to greet him, opened the courtyard door, and saw a strange old man coming, Chu Fan asked very politely, "Old man, is there anything wrong with you?" ”
"It's fine." The old chief shook his head and said, "It's just that you are sitting at the door, are you not able to enter the house without a key?" ”
"Hmm......" Chu Fan nodded helplessly, and said, "I was in a hurry to go out just now, and I forgot that I still have the key, so I can only wait for Sister Mengting to come back......"
"What are you sitting here? What should I do if I catch a cold? The old chief looked concerned and said, "In this way, my house is next to me, go and sit with me." ”
"Uh......" Chu Fan originally wanted to go, but he suddenly remembered what Liu Mengting had said before, "In the future, you are not allowed to go casually with people you don't know." ”
Chu Fan said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry old man, I'm still waiting here." ”
"Don't be embarrassed, you kid, the old chief can afford you, do you dare to put on a score?" Xiao Luo said coldly.
Chu Fan looked at this Xiao Luo, his face turned dark, and he counterattacked: "Who are you, I am talking to this old man, what does it have to do with you?" ”
"You!" Xiao Luo was angry and wanted to make a move with Chu Fan, but was stopped by the old chief, so he had to give up.
The old chief said: "Look, my house is next door, they are all neighbors, what are you afraid of sitting down?" ”
"This ......" Chu Fan looked back at the Liu family's villa, and then at the villa next door, so he had to nod and say, "Okay." ”
After that, Chu Fan followed the old chief to the next door and entered the courtyard, and the old chief led Chu Fan to sit down in the courtyard.
He poured Chu Fan a cup of tea and said, "Come, taste my good Longjing tea." ”
As he spoke, the old chief handed the teacup to Chu Fan, Chu Fan took it with both hands, and smelled the rich fragrance of tea, which made her feel refreshed, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, old man." ”
