"Qiu Lina, I have something to do later."

Xia Chutang's smile remained the same, but the temperature in the corners of her eyes cooled down: "I'll visit another day. Okay?"

"Tangtang, can you go today?"

Qiu Lina begged: "If you don't go, my dad..."

"Sorry, my car is here."

Xia Chutang lowered her eyes slightly and pushed Qiu Lina's hand away.

Waved to Cheng Jiaxuan: "Classmate Cheng, see you on Monday."

"Xia Chutang——" Qiu Lina shouted unwillingly.

The girl got on the bus without looking back.

Cheng Jiaxuan adjusted his glasses and said calmly: "Xia Chutang has already said that something is wrong. You can't force others to do anything."

"But...I really have something very important!"

Qiu Lina's face was full of disappointment: "Aren't we good friends? Why is she like this..."

Sitting on the bus, Xia Chutang looked at her wrist and recalled the anxiety in Qiu Lina's eyes just now.

That day she said that her father's factory was going bankrupt, and today she was so eager to invite her to her home.

I'm afraid her parents are really in trouble.

Before his rebirth, Xia Chutang looked down upon his "friends".

Every time she considers others as friends, others treat her as a scapegoat.

But in her new life, there are many people around her who "sincerely" treat her.

At the beginning of summer, Tang Liangbo's mood changed slightly.

When she arrived at the hospital, Xia Chutang first went to see her grandma. When she learned that her operation was successful, she was relieved.

I went to chat with Li Hui for a while. Talked about the situation of school exams.

After her mother fell asleep, Xia Chutang went to the nurse station.

"Sister, can I use the phone?"

"Okay. You can use it."

This patient was a close relative of Dr. Lu. From the doctors to the nurses in the inpatient department, they were all very polite to Xia Chutang and her daughter.

Xia Chutang dialed Qiu Lina's home phone number.

The Qiu family was originally lifeless. After a phone call, Qiu Lina screamed: "Ahhhh-"

"What do ghosts call at night?"

Jiang Anxin came out with her youngest son in her arms. Thinking that her daughter was still struggling, she enlightened, "It's not a big deal if your classmate doesn't come. Let's try inviting her another day."

"What are you trying to do? I don't think of her as a friend."

Father Qiu, who was sitting in front of the coffee table holding a wine cup, sneered: "I've seen this kind of people a lot. On the surface, they call each other brothers and sisters, but if something happens, don't ask for help. I'll stab you in the back."

“There are always good people and bad people in this world.”

Jiang Anxin disliked her husband's negative remarks, "You can't kill a whole boatload of people with one stroke."

Qiu Zhi took a sip of the wine and waved his hand: "Haha, I'm going to kill someone? Well, let Nana say it herself, how long have we been begging for that shitty friend of hers? What about her, if we want a recipe?"

I cooked a table of dishes for her today, but she didn't come. What does this mean? It shows that people don’t take Nana seriously at all! "

Jiang Anxin didn't want to argue with the drunkard, so she turned to her daughter and said, "Nana, I'll date that friend of yours next time. Don't think about this. Wash up quickly and go rest."

"Mom, I won't rest!"

Qiu Lina's eyes were filled with excitement and excitement: "Xia Chutang is waiting to come to our house!"

"What?"

"What did you say?"

Father Qiu was half awake from the wine and thought he heard wrongly: "Can you say it again?"

"Dad, my friend will come over later."

Qiu Lina said again, taking the initiative, "Mom, I'll heat up the put away dishes. You don't have to worry about it."

"Bring out that drink, too."

Jiang Anxin raised his head and looked at the time. It was already 9 p.m., and asked, "Nana, when people say something is wrong, do you show off to them?"

To make a special trip here at such a late hour, the child must not have refused the invitation on purpose.

While Qiu Lina was warming up the food, she felt guilty in her heart.

After the exam, Xia Chutang said she couldn't come and got on the bus directly. She was so sad that she thought she had seen the wrong person.

Unexpectedly...she has a villainous heart.

"Mom, I'll apologize to her later."

"That's pretty much it."

Jiang Anxin nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, after Xia Chutang came out of the hospital, she went home and changed into her school uniform.

When she goes out at night, wearing her school uniform is tantamount to attracting bad guys.

Lu Chengyuan didn't come back at night. Xia Chutang was afraid that he would come back and lock the door, so she wrote a note and posted it on the sofa.

After going out, I went to the store in front of the hospital and bought a fruit basket.

Xia Chutang took a taxi.

Along the way, the taxi driver looked at the girl back and forth and kept asking questions.

Xia Chutang pretended to be deaf and mute and didn't even give a sound.

In 1995, the security situation in Xihai was not good at all.

Every once in a while, you can see missing person notices in newspapers.

Taxis, in particular, are the key areas where missing persons are last seen.

Xia Chutang held the fruit basket and looked out the window to observe the route. She put one hand in her pocket and held the scissors tightly in her hand.

If something unexpected happens, she will never show mercy.

The taxi driver talked all the way alone, and when he finally got out of the car, he teased: "Sister, do you want me to wait for you here?"

Xia Chutang still said nothing, paid the fare and got off.

According to the address given by Qiu Lina, Xia Chutang quickly entered the unit building.

"Oh, you're here so soon?"

Qiu Lina opened the door and was surprised to see the girl at the door: "I also said I would pick you up at the door later!"

There was a flashlight on the table at the door. Xia Chutang's expression softened and she smiled: "I took a taxi, no need to pick up."

"I told you to go downstairs early. It's not safe so late."

Jiang Anxin put her little son to sleep. When she came out and saw the girl who had just entered the room, she was startled: "Is it... is it you?"

"Ah?! Boss lady?" Xia Chutang was also stunned.

Isn't this the kind-hearted proprietress she met when she went to Wenjiang Wholesale Market to purchase goods?

She is actually Qiu Lina's mother?

The world is too small!

"Do you know my mother?"

Qiu Lina found it incredible, "You go to the wholesale market to buy goods? Your family owns a cosmetics store?"

Didn't it mean that Xia Chutang's family situation was not good?

Why are you still doing business?

Xia Chutang replied vaguely: "I help people purchase goods."

"Oh, last time I said you were about the same age as my daughter, but I didn't expect you actually know each other and are still good friends!"

Jiang Anxin didn't say much about the details of her acquaintance with the girl, but said, "We are really destined, please sit down quickly."

Qiu Lina ran into the kitchen to serve the dishes, and soon the coffee table was filled with hot and cold dishes, chicken feet, beef, and fried hairtail...

It can be seen that the Qiu family has prepared carefully.

"I thought you weren't coming. The dishes have been put in the refrigerator."

Jiang Anxin explained: "I just answered the phone, so Nana quickly took it out and heated it up. You try it and see how it tastes."

"Ok."

Xia Chutang had dinner with Li Hui in the hospital and was not hungry now.

He picked up his chopsticks and took two bites, then asked, "Where's uncle?"

"Wait a moment. Dad, hurry up!"

Qiu Lina shouted twice towards the toilet, with a look of gloating, "My dad is washing his hair!"

"shampoo?"

Why should I wash my hair at night?

It doesn’t need to be so grand, right?

Jiang Anxin explained with a smile: "His father thought you wouldn't come, so he drank a few drinks and went to sober up now. Don't be ridiculous."

Just as he was talking, the toilet door opened.

Father Qiu wiped his hair and came out with an apologetic look on his face: "Little girl, I made you laugh. I drank too much and my brain was muddled, so I flushed my head. Don't mind."

"It's okay." Xia Chutang was a little embarrassed.

"You have some food."

Dad Qiu pulled up a small bench and sat down, "These dishes are not touched. You can eat more."

Xia Chutang: "..."

She couldn't take a bite now.

Jiang Anxin saw that the girl didn't want to eat, so she touched her husband with her arm, "Lao Qiu, it's getting late. You should talk to the child about business."
