You do not understand

Duan Yanzhe did not sleep soundly, and in his dream he returned to the dinner with Shuping.

At that time, Duan Yanzhe sipped two sips of red wine and listened to Shu Ping and a few companions talking nonsense. They chatted about housing prices and international situation for a while. pull on him—

"Lawyer Duan, we Xiaoyao admire you a lot. Some time ago, we even said that we would study law in the future. Isn't that right, Xiaoyao?"

After finishing speaking, he made a gesture to touch Shu Jingyao, who had a cold face beside him, but Shu Jingyao didn't say anything, and dodged for a while.

Shu Ping hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he was very embarrassed and said, "I'm getting old, she's very rebellious, and now I don't even have basic manners, I can't control it, Lawyer Duan, she's just shy."

Duan Yanzhe's face remained normal, he held his wine glass and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm still a child. When I was her age, my dad couldn't tell me to have dinner with others. Xiaoyao is already pretty good."

Knowing that Duan Yanzhe was trying to save him face, Shu Ping quickly nodded in agreement, and said with a dry smile, "That's right, alas, Lawyer Duan is magnanimous and doesn't care about children, unlike us who have a decadent mindset and sometimes let children give it to us." Mad."

Duan Yanzhe took two slices of orange papaya, stared at Shu Jingyao, and finally couldn't help asking: "How is Jiang Xun recently?"

Shu Jingyao raised her head abruptly when she heard his words, but she was only surprised for a moment, and she immediately said coldly: "Not good."

Duan Yanzhe didn't pick up the papaya: "What's wrong?"

Shu Jingyao finally turned her face to Duan Yanzhe, glaring at him: "You don't care, can you ask?"

"Shu Jingyao!" Shu Ping didn't know what was going on, and said in shock, "Why are you talking to Lawyer Duan?!"

Shu Jingyao pursed her mouth and put down her chopsticks: "I won't eat, I'm going out for a stroll."

"Don't go! Sit down!" Shu Ping hated himself for treating her badly, otherwise he wouldn't be unable to step down now, "It doesn't matter whether it's big or small, and I won't talk about you normally."

"..."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly turned to Duan Yanzhe: "Lawyer Duan, look at this...don't be as knowledgeable as her."

Shu Jingyao blushed all of a sudden, and said furiously, "His father passed away, and he hasn't come to school for a long time. Are you happy?"

Duan Yanzhe's heart sank: "When did it happen?"

"Our head teacher said this morning that his dad was cremated yesterday, I don't know when he will come to learn—"

Duan Yanzhe had already stood up, picked up his coat, and apologized to Shu Ping: "I might have to go, let's get together another day, and I will invite you then."

Shu Jingyao seemed to feel something, and looked up at him in a daze.

But Duan Yanzhe didn't notice her gaze, and walked out of the hotel quickly, calling back the number Jiang Xun called last time while walking.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is busy, please..."

Duan Yanzhe pinched the phone, threw it directly on the car seat, and started the car.

He didn't know why he was flustered, maybe he was a little guilty, he just said it bluntly, but forgot that Jiang Xun was just a child.

Duan Yanzhe was driving the car and didn't know where to look for it. After thinking for a long time, he had to call Mu Tong: "Sister-in-law, do you know where Ding Haoyi's wife lives now?"

Mu Tong was watching TV with Niuniu in his arms, and he felt a little short-circuited in his brain: "I haven't seen her for a while, and you know that she doesn't come to our party now. She still cares about Zhang Luo before. Let me think about it... ah, My dad said that day, let's go back to the west of the city, doesn't her mother live there? Why, do you have something to do with her? "

Duan Yanzhe pondered: "Is it convenient for you to call her? Insinuate whether her son is at home, where he is, where he has been... Don't tell my brother."

Mu Tong said "Oh" and smiled: "You are very secretive all day long, don't worry, your brother is not at home, I won't tell him."

Duan Yanzhe's tone was still not loose, until Mu Tong called back, he had already traveled halfway west of the city, and he didn't know where he was going.

He didn't expect to drive to the billiard hall, and when the headlights came on, he saw several people gathered around a table, obviously beating someone up.

"Jiang Xun—!" Duan Yanzhe suddenly woke up, and found that the surroundings were quiet, dark and safe.

He got up from the sofa, went to the kitchen, and drank a glass of ice water from the pipe.

After drinking, he turned to the bedroom again, the bedroom door was open, and Jiang Xun had already fallen asleep.

He was lying on his back, straight and straight, like a well-trained soldier.

Duan Yanzhe watched for a while, then gently closed the door, walked out, and sat on the sofa in a daze.

He didn't know when, he fell asleep again, and when he woke up again, it was already broad daylight, and the sun slanted on the thin blanket covering his body.

There was a sound of pots and pans coming from the kitchen, Duan Yanzhe reacted for a while, and then connected with the cause and effect of yesterday, he walked over with his head like a bird's nest.

Jiang Xun was assembling sandwiches, when he heard his voice, he said, "You can go and wash up, and you can eat."

Duan Yanzhe looked at it for a while with a complicated expression, and said mercilessly: "The eggs are fried."

"..." Jiang Xun stopped awkwardly.

Duan Yanzhe unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth, and continued: "After a closer look, it's not just blurred, it's all black."

Jiang Xun opened the sandwich: "Can I re-fry it for you?"

"No, I don't eat over-fried ones, it doesn't matter."

Duan Yanzhe scratched his head, turned around and walked to the bathroom, just after he walked out of the kitchen door, he stopped again: "You said you can't even fry an egg, how can you live alone?"

Jiang Xun said: "I don't care what I eat, as long as it's edible and not bad."

Duan Yanzhe shook his head: "Can you tell what's edible and what's not bad?"

"..."

"Who used to cook in your family couldn't possibly be your father, isn't he very busy?"

Jiang Xun quickly said, "Aunt Zhang."

He turned his face away naturally: "But then my dad didn't let her come, I don't have that spare money."

After hearing this, Duan Yanzhe lowered his eyelids and was thoughtful, but in the end he didn't say anything and went into the bathroom calmly.

When he came out, Jiang Xun's breakfast was also on the table. Compared to his embarrassment, Duan Yanzhe didn't make any unnecessary jokes, picked up the sandwich and took a big bite.

The one Jiang Xun gave him was actually pretty good, but his own egg was almost a lump of coke, and it tasted bitter in his mouth.

He thought he felt that he had failed, so he didn't ask Duan Yanzhe again.

Duan Yanzhe ate the sandwich with the milk, and said: "Come with me, our aunt cooks delicious food, you don't have to live in such a simple and rude way."

His tone was a little unbearable, Jiang Xun lowered his head, then raised it again: "I threw away your business card when I was doing laundry yesterday."

"..."

"I don't want to bother you."

"I know you don't want to bother me, you want to escape." Duan Yanzhe put his hands on the table, looked straight at Jiang Xun, and said mockingly, "Isn't it? You and Ding Nanyu are dead and broken, once it's over, you don't have to deal with the rest of your life gone."

Jiang Xun paused for a moment, his complexion looked bad, and he put down the sandwich: "Yes, I don't want to live anymore, can I?"

"No."

"..."

Duan Yanzhe was expressionless: "No, suicide is not supported by the law. The right to life is very precious and cannot be easily given up."

Jiang Xun raised his chin, as if he really wanted to refute him, but in the end he just said: "Is the law and the supremacy of interests the only remaining principles of life for you?"

Duan Yanzhe's complexion changed slightly, and then he smiled: "What do you want to say? You just want to say that I am selfish, cold, and unreasonable."

"No." Jiang Xun shook his head.

"What's not, it's clearly." Duan Yanzhe still smiled, "I'm not like you, in order to help my classmates avoid harassment, even Ding Nan dared to offend. My father lost his money and his life and wanted to seek justice, so you just want to say that I—"

"No." Jiang Xun interrupted Duan Yanzhe, "I just think you shouldn't sympathize with me."

"..."

"Don't let yourself regret it for four years because of a moment of sympathy."

"..."

"Although you said that you don't care, you have helped me several times, and I know it in my heart. But a moment of sympathy can't overcome the principles of life. I don't want you to think about it later and think it's a stupid decision to help me. Because I may let you down."

Jiang Xun said, and stood up: "Lawyer Duan, thank you, I have to go home."

Just after ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Tingyi was lying on the sofa in the living room applying a mask, when she heard the door lock, she called out suspiciously: "Who is it?"

Duan Yanzhe stood at the door and smiled: "Mom, it's me."

Ye Tingyi struggled to get up, and glanced at the clock on the wall: "Didn't go to work again?"

"No, I'll just take the materials and leave."

Seeing that he had changed his clothes, Ye Tingyi guessed that he had gone to live in the apartment: "Why don't you go to sleep in that small broken room when you have nothing to do, why don't you go home?"

Duan Yanzhe had already gone upstairs, and vaguely passed by: "It's nearby, if you don't go there, you will collect dust, and you won't be able to get in in the future."

Ye Tingyi fell down again, closed her eyes, and comforted herself: "Okay, love to go, as long as you don't play outside, I will be content."

Duan Yanzhe took a stack of documents and went downstairs: "Then I'm leaving, Mom."

Ye Tingyi felt that he was too serious today, and when the door closed, she couldn't help but sat up and stared at the door.

When Duan Yanzhe arrived at the law firm, the secretary happened to be watering the flowers. Seeing him, he smiled and said, "Morning, Lawyer Duan."

Duan Yanzhe threw the documents on the table and nodded: "Well, you go out."

The secretary also noticed something strange about him, so he ran away quickly, knowing that Duan Yanzhe was not like Duan Xingyue, Duan Xingyue often roared, but he was not the real culprit, while Duan Yanzhe was just the opposite, usually amiable and cheerful, and when he got angry, he was like a volcanic eruption. Can't stand it.

Seeing that the office door was closed tightly, Duan Yanzhe turned on the computer, put his legs on the desk, and started smoking.

He played an NBA basketball game, and within 10 minutes of watching it, the office door opened. Duan Xingyue had obviously just finished the meeting, with his laptop still in his hand, and he heard the impassioned explanation from the commentator: "Oh, happy! ?”

Duan Yanzhe didn't say a word.

Duan Xingyue was in a good mood, he didn't care about his listless appearance, and put his laptop aside: "When I invited Qian Yaning yesterday, he asked what you were doing recently."

Duan Yanzhe stared at the screen: "Busy."

"Busy." Duan Xingyue nodded, "I know you are busy, you don't see anyone all day long, especially recently."

Duan Yanzhe finally turned his gaze: "What do you want to say?"

"I heard a piece of gossip this morning." Duan Xingyue smiled meaningfully, "It said that you and Shu Ping left halfway through the meal yesterday."

"..." Duan Yanzhe finally put his legs down and sat up straight.

Duan Xing took two steps forward: "What is Jiang Xun, do you know him? Shu Ping's daughter said a few words, you left the game that someone else made for you, why do you want him?"

"..." Duan Yanzhe let out a long breath, "Why not, I'm free."

Duan Xing looked at Duan Yanzhe with probing eyes: "The person Shu Ping's daughter knows is a high school student? When did you have such a childlike innocence, and you can still get involved with a half-grown child?"

Duan Yanzhe said wearily: "It's okay, I just want to watch the game in peace now."

Duan Xingyue fiddled with a few pens in Duan Yanzhe's pen holder: "Not to mention falling down, I'm not interested in high school students. In the afternoon, I will go with your sister-in-law to buy a pair of new roller skates for Niu Niu. If you have something to do, you should hold them on first." .”

Duan Yanzhe nodded: "Well, just go."

Duan Xingyue left happily, Duan Yanzhe sat alone for a while, collected his emotions, and sat in front of the computer to write materials.
