Chen Hansheng was going to send Xiao Rongyu home, and Wang Zibo followed them with his hands in his pockets. He didn't find the public display of affection unbearable. After all, it wasn't his first time.
However, before they arrived at Cangwu Green Garden, the three of them saw Xiao Hongwei standing at the entrance of the residential area from afar. There was still a little flame burning at the corner of his mouth, and the security team of the residential area was chatting and laughing beside him.
At first, Old Xiao was a little impatient to deal with them. He kept looking at the road until Chen Hansheng and Xiao Rongyu appeared. Old Xiao's shoulders were obviously relaxed, and he began to chat with the security team leader occasionally.
Little Yu 'er didn't come home after 10 pm, and Old Xiao couldn't sit still anymore. If it weren't for Chen Hansheng, he would have gone to pick up his daughter.
"Uncle Xiao, have you been waiting here for a long time?"
Chen Hansheng asked with a smile as they walked closer.
"No."
Xiao Hongwei raised the cigarette butt in his hand. "Smoking at home will affect your Aunt Lu, so I took the initiative to come down and smoke."
Probably because there were outsiders like security guards around, the cute comrade Old Xiao felt that it would damage his reputation if he waited for his daughter at the entrance of the residential area, so he deliberately pretended not to admit it.
"Director Xiao, aren't you waiting for your daughter?"
However, the security team leader was so honest that he exposed the lie mercilessly. "You've been staring at the road for a long time. It's been almost 20 minutes."
"… Ahem!"
Old Xiao coughed. "The class gathering is over. You can go up first. I'll smoke again."
"It's over."
Xiao Rongyu said obediently, "We'll wait here too."
"Oh, it's so cold outside. I won't smoke."
Old Xiao immediately put the lighter back into his pocket. "Let's go up together."
"Goodbye, Director Xiao."
The security team leader said goodbye politely, trying to leave a deep impression on the "big shots" in the residential area.
Xiao Hongwei nodded and didn't say anything. On the contrary, Chen Hansheng flicked a Chunghwa cigarette and threw it to the security team leader. "Thank you for your hard work."
The security captain took it and smiled politely at Chen Hansheng.
Old Xiao gave Little Yu 'er a glance, but didn't say anything. "What kind of fruit do you want to eat? I can peel it for you."
After returning home, Xiao Hongwei and Xiao Rongyu naturally did not have any reservations. Chen Hansheng did not know what it meant to be polite. Only Wang Zibo suddenly felt a little nervous.
When he was young and studying, everyone seemed to have the heroic spirit of "Marquis of Dung Soil". At that time, not to mention Xiao Hongwei, who was just a deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, even the mayor of Harbor City was not in his eyes.
However, after coming into contact with society, he gradually realized that the Deputy Director of the Prefectural Public Security Bureau was so awesome.
In particular, although the decorations in Little Yu 'er's house looked elegant and light, he could still see traces of money being spent in the details. Coupled with Auntie Lu's cold temperament, Wang Zibo, who came from the most ordinary family, felt a little uncomfortable.
"Xiao Chen."
Chen Hansheng changed into slippers and was about to go to the living room. Wang Zibo suddenly pulled him and pointed to the shoe cabinet. "There are no male slippers left."
"No slippers? Why are you telling me?"
Chen Hansheng couldn't help laughing. "You should tell Auntie Lu and ask her to get you a new pair."
Wang Zibo hesitated and stammered, "You are more familiar with it. You can help me."
"I'm so impressed!"
Chen Hansheng shook his head speechlessly. He was too lazy to say anything. He directly kicked his slippers to Wang Zibo and walked barefoot to the living room.
No one would say anything if Chen Hansheng was barefoot. However, if Wang Zibo was barefoot, Lv Yuqing would probably frown.
Grandma Xiao had already cut the cantaloupe and put it on the glass tea table. There were toothpicks on each piece. Chen Hansheng didn't try to be modest. He drank tonight and his mouth was a little dry. He ate most of the cantaloupe by himself. Finally, he remembered that Wang Zibo was still there.
"Do you want some?"
Chen Hansheng took it and gestured to Wang Zibo to have a few bites.
"No, no, no."
Wang Zibo, who was sitting at the end of the sofa, glanced at the juicy cantaloupe and swallowed. He smiled and waved his hand to refuse.
Of course, Wang Zibo was very thirsty too. However, the lack of confidence in his character was magnified in such an environment. Therefore, he didn't dare to ask for new slippers just now. Now, he was embarrassed to eat fruit because he felt that it would attract attention.
In fact, he was thinking too much. Xiao Hongwei and Lv Yuqing only regarded Wang Zibo as their daughter and son-in-law in high school. They wouldn't pay much attention to him.
"Forget it if you don't want to eat."
Chen Hansheng muttered to himself. After he finished eating, he took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. He said to Xiao Rongyu, "I'm going to Jianye tomorrow. I'll try to come back to pick you up on the first day of school. If I can't, you can ask Uncle Xiao to send you."
"Ah?"
Little Yu 'er was watching TV. She immediately turned around and asked, "Why so early?"
"I have something to deal with in the company."
Chen Hansheng burped. "I have to go back early."
"Is it about New Century?"
Xiao Rongyu asked.
Chen Hansheng didn't explain clearly. He just nodded. "It is indeed related to New Century."
"Oh."
Little Yu 'er agreed sullenly. In short, she was a little unhappy when she was separated from Chen Hansheng for too long.
"Hansheng started a company again?"
Xiao Hongwei was also very curious. Rocket 101 only went bankrupt a few months ago. Did he find another way?
"It's a small company. There are less than 10 official employees."
Chen Hansheng said indifferently.
In fact, he wasn't lying. There were really less than 10 official employees in Nutshell now.
"You really know how to toss around. You're too energetic."
Old Xiao asked, "What is it this time? Is it still express delivery?"
"Something like electronic products."
Chen Hansheng explained in more detail. "It's probably MP4 and mobile phones."
"Oh, we don't know about that."
Xiao Hongwei nodded. "Anyway, you have experience now. Steady yourself and don't be impatient. You will definitely succeed again."
Lv Yuqing also cared for Chen Hansheng. With her cold personality, it could even be said that she was a little "selfish". She took the initiative to ask Chen Hansheng because she regarded him as family.
Wang Zibo looked at this harmonious "family of four". He thought that Xiao Chen's factory was already open. In fact, for him, success was inevitable. It was just that he was thinking about when to succeed.
Next, they talked about Xiao Rongyu's preparations for going to America after school started. Lv Yuqing wanted to ask for leave to accompany her daughter.
"No need."
Chen Hansheng said casually. "I can accompany her. You don't have to ask for leave."
Old Xiao was still very worried. "I heard that America is more chaotic."
"It depends on the specific situation."
Chen Hansheng rubbed his fingers. "In America, only you have money. Everywhere is heaven and there are angels everywhere. Without money, everywhere is hell and there are villains everywhere."
"Oh …"
Xiao Hongwei felt a little strange. Chen Hansheng's definition of America seemed to be different from that of ordinary college students.
Some of the young graduates in the bureau had two extremes in their attitudes toward the United States. One of them thought that the United States was "the air of freedom, the sweet rain, and the system that made people want to take pity on them." The other kind of people wanted to donate their salary to fight the United States and fight to the death.
Chen Hansheng's attitude was not fair, but it was very practical. This also made Old Xiao feel a little relieved.
"It's actually more troublesome for us to ask for leave to go to America. The procedures are very complicated."
Old Xiao thought for a while and said, "We'll see."
Xiao Hongwei and Lv Yuqing were both leaders in the system. If they went abroad, the examination system would be stricter.
After sitting for a while, Chen Hansheng and Wang Zibo stood up and said goodbye. The two men were not worried about being robbed and hurried back home.
After Chen Hansheng opened the door, he found that there was a wall lamp in the living room. The rest of the room was dark. There was also a faint yellow light coming out from the crack of his parents' bedroom door.
When Chen Hansheng was carefully changing his clothes, Empress Dowager Liang suddenly shouted, "Chen Hansheng?"
Her voice was a little tired and mixed with a strong sense of sleepiness.
"Yes."
Chen Hansheng was worried that he would be scolded and hurriedly replied, "Mom, you're not asleep yet?"
"You're crazy, coming back so late."
Empress Dowager Liang indeed scolded, "Your classmates are so good, why don't you follow them home!"
Then, only a "bang" sound was heard. His parents' bedroom door was completely closed.
"Hehe."
Chen Hansheng smiled. Why were his parents so stubborn? Empress Dowager Liang was clearly waiting for him, but she just had to express it fiercely.
Thinking about it, Chen Hansheng unconsciously hummed Huang Rong's "Dad, Mom".
Oh hey mom
That day you quietly shed tears for me again;
Do you know that it has turned into pain, dripping into my heart;
… ….
Oh hey dad
The person who protected me the most since I was young;
Why are you always lowering your head, always smoking and not talking;
… ….
Hmph, what a bunch of cute and prideful parents!
