Chapter 2
City A is only half an hour away by high-speed train from City C. When Zhong Haochen arrived at his home in City B, grandma had just finished cooking.
"The time is just right, wash your hands and eat."
The kind, short-haired old man came out of the kitchen with a plate of glutinous rice balls, smiling, which warmed Zhong Haochen's heart after finishing his busy work.
"I'll do it." Zhong Haochen put the suitcase in the corner, and quickly took two steps to take the plate from grandma's hand.
"Where's Aunt Jiang?"
Because he was usually busy with work, Zhong Haochen worried that it would be inconvenient for his grandma to be alone at home during the day or when he was on a business trip, so he specially invited an aunt to accompany him.
"I'll let her rest for a day and come back tomorrow."
"Grandma, do you think this color is good?"
A gentle female voice came from the kitchen.
Zhong Haochen looked at grandma suspiciously, grandma smirked at him, and winked at the kitchen:
"This is the daughter of Aunt Zhang next door to our hometown. She is 22 years old and has just returned from graduating from abroad. She is an intern in a company. She looks amazing."
Before the words were finished, grandma had already walked to the kitchen, saying:
"Girl, grandma, come and see."
Zhong Haochen was left alone, shaking his head helplessly.
Is this the first time?
Since his age broke the 25-year-old mark, grandma has been busy looking for a partner, as if she will be a bachelor for the rest of her life.
But after so many years of arranging, he still couldn't find anything he liked.
Grandma often taught him not to be too picky, and to find a gentle and pleasant person to marry and live, it would be great.
But only he knows that in his life, he probably won't be able to meet grandma's request.
Just as he was thinking wildly, a fluffy puppy, with its long tongue sticking out and its short legs, jumped off the sofa in the living room and jumped into Zhong Haochen's arms.
Nao Nao hadn't seen his master for a long time, lying on Zhong Haochen's hard and strong chest to have fun, the soft and fluffy hair rubbed against his neck, itching.
This made him suddenly think of, when he was in the hotel in the morning, there was a child lying beside him, the feeling of soft hair rubbing against his shoulder.
At the dinner table, grandma had a smile on her face, and her heart was full of joy:
"Chenchen, this is Qing Mu, the youngest daughter of Aunt Zhang's family, Mu Mu, this is your elder brother Chenchen, remember? When you were young, he even hugged you."
Looking at the handsome grandson opposite, and the cute and well-behaved future grandson-in-law, grandma is in a great mood.
"Mu Mu has been studying abroad since she was a child. No, she returned to China as soon as she graduated some time ago. She said that she wanted to learn foreign knowledge to contribute to our own country. What a wonderful child."
"Grandma, you've praised me. It's really nothing." Qing Mu pulled the hair by her ear, and secretly glanced at Zhong Haochen, who was an arm's length away.
She had heard of this brother, he was excellent in his studies since he was a child, and several first-class foreign universities wanted to accept him during the college entrance examination, but he chose C University in order to take care of his grandmother nearby.
Although C University is also ranked high in the country, it is indeed inferior to those foreign universities.
Now, even though there is a better company in City A not far away, he still chooses to stay in City C just to take better care of his grandma who raised him.
Her mother said that a filial man will treat his wife well when he gets married in the future.
What's more, he is tall and handsome, with fair skin, a slightly indifferent expression, and a feeling of loneliness and arrogance exuding from his whole body. He is the male god in her mind.
"What's the matter? How many girls don't want to come back after leaving the country? It's just you who are filial and don't forget your roots. This is a perfect match for Chenchen in our family." Grandma took a chopstick of Coke chicken wings and put them in the opposite green Mu's bowl.
"Thank you grandma."
"Chenchen, you can eat too. Today's dish is all made by Mu Mu, and it tastes better than grandma's." Grandma motioned her grandson to say something, and grabbed the good guy in front of her.
"Thank you." Zhong Haochen's lips moved, his tone was light.
"You're welcome, as long as you like it." Qing Mu was not frightened by Zhong Haochen's indifference, and ate quietly and carefully, helping grandma remove fish bones from time to time.
It made grandma like this girl doll even more.
After dinner, Zhong Haochen was forced by his grandmother to send Qing Mu back to his hometown.
In fact, the so-called "hometown" is just a suburb half an hour's drive away from the city center where he lives now.
On the way, Qing Mu talked about some topics intermittently, and took the initiative to talk about her experience abroad for the first time.
Seeing that Zhong Haochen didn't react much, he just concentrated on driving the car, occasionally responding with a few words.
Qing Mu was a little frustrated, and finally when the car was parked outside the courtyard of her hometown, she couldn't help but say:
"Brother Haochen, are you dissatisfied with me?"
When Qing Mu asked this question, her face became hot, and she put her hands on her handbag, looking uneasy.
"You're fine, but I'm not suitable for you." Zhong Haochen turned off the ignition, held both hands on the steering wheel, and faced Qing Mu head-on for the first time.
"But……"
Qing Mu wanted to say something.
"Ding ~"
It was Zhong Haochen's WeChat voice.
The mobile phone was placed in the armrest box, and Qing Mu naturally saw it.
"Then... Thank you Brother Haochen for sending me back. Be careful." Qing Mu got out of the car reluctantly, and gently closed the door.
Zhong Haochen drove away without any hesitation.
When I got home, I couldn't escape my grandma's continuous questioning:
"Coming back so soon?"
"Didn't you sit at Mu Mu's house?"
"Why don't you invite Mumu to watch a movie by the way?"
"Grandma, I just came back from a business trip, and I'm really tired." Zhong Haochen put his hands on grandma's shoulders, and begged for mercy.
"You child!" The grandma gave her grandson a helpless look:
"Go into the house and rest. I will interrogate you later."
Zhong Haochen felt relieved and returned to the room.
Before closing the door, he rushed in noisy.
Sitting on the single sofa opposite the bed, Zhong Haochen held Nao Nao in his arms, feeling the soft touch of the little guy, his heart was peaceful.
Turning on the phone, I found that it was a friend application, and the WeChat name was "the most beautiful boy". The reason:
"Uncle, pay back the money."
Zhong Haochen sneered, and was swept away by the powerlessness of "blind date" before.
Click "Pass".
The other party sent a message soon.
The most beautiful boy:
"Uncle, I'm Chi Xu."
Chenxing:
"Ah."
The most beautiful boy:
"Uncle, my mobile phone fell into the wine glass yesterday, and I just fixed it."
Chenxing:
"Ah."
The most beautiful boy:
"Uncle, you are so cold."
Zhong Haochen looked at these words, not knowing how to answer them.
Is he "cold"?However, I almost never chat on WeChat outside of work, and I don't know how to chat with others.
While thinking about how to answer, another message came from over there.
The most beautiful boy:
"Uncle, money for clothes. Crab!"
Then, the other party sent a transfer red envelope of 395 yuan.
Zhong Haochen tapped to accept the payment.
After waiting for a while, the other party did not send another message.Zhong Haochen lay on the sofa, stroking the well-behaved dog's fur, and gradually fell asleep.
It was a week later that I saw Chi Xu again.
On this day, Zhong Haochen, who had just finished a temporary urgent project, was dragged by a client to a bar in the downtown area of City A.
The reason for choosing this place is that it is very close to the hotel where he lives.
"Haochen, it's really thanks to you coming here in time this time. You didn't even know it. The leader urged me many times, and I went through it several times from the beginning to the end. I couldn't find out where the bug was." Shaoyang raised his glass excitedly , gulp it down.
"Since you have chosen our company, I will naturally help you solve the problem in time." Zhong Haochen leaned on the sofa in the cubicle, crossing his legs.
"You still have a strong sense of responsibility. The engineer of your company, to be honest, I only believe in you. Every time, whether it is development or repair, you are always the first to complete it, and you have no worries." Shaoyang said here, and went to Zhong Haochen Moved aside:
"Seriously, have you ever considered switching to our company?"
The corner of Zhong Haochen's mouth twitched, but he didn't smile much:
"Thank you for your kindness. Not yet."
Shaoyang has wanted to poach the wall more than once, but he never thought of coming to Mayor A's residence because of his grandma.
Even... City A has his biological parents and younger brother.
"Okay, I want to come someday, just make a phone call. Brother, make sure to arrange all the logistical work properly." Shaoyang patted Zhong Haochen on the shoulder and continued to drink.
At this time, Zhong Haochen heard a slightly familiar voice not far away.
Adjacent compartment:
"Don't drink, don't drink. This time, I won't drink anything." Chi Xu pushed the wine glass handed over by his roommate, determined not to get drunk again.
Even if he drank the most, the big adventure would be successful, and he would be able to command three roommates to do anything in the dormitory for a week, which was an extremely tempting bet.
"Can you do it? The three of us have called you "Big Brother" for a week. In the past week, you cleaned the dormitory and helped with takeout. Why, you didn't give us a chance to win the game?" Lin Feng laughed. , and sent the wine to Chi Xu again.
"Are you just running errands with the takeaway? I was the worst one. I went around the school in women's clothes, and I almost lost face." Yan Zheng wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Don't wrong me, this is Lin Feng's idea." Chi Xu immediately retorted.
But it was he who finally nodded in agreement.
Think about the scene where Yan Zheng’s 1.8-meter tall man, wearing a lolita costume, ostentatiously walks through the campus, covering his big face and plate all the time, the three people present immediately laughed.
"Still laughing? This time, I will be ashamed if I tell the truth this time." Yan Zheng patted his chest impassionedly.
No one expected that Chi Xu, who was drunk, could spend the night peacefully in the hotel room they randomly selected without being thrown out.
What a mistake!
"Why don't I treat you to this meal? I really can't drink anymore. My mother found out last time and nagged me for a week. I'm really scared." Chi Xu retreated to the sofa.
It was one thing for his mother to nagging, but the key was that his fragile little heart couldn't bear the shock of waking up in the arms of a stranger the next day.
It doesn't matter if he was a man last time, after all, he is not afraid of the same sex.
But what if a woman hugs him next time?
Hey... I dare not think about it!Trembling!
"Isn't it? Didn't I see that you're still a mama boy?" Yan Zheng's disbelieving eyes, coupled with the thief's expression, almost said the word "joke" bluntly.
"Forget it, just drink something casually today. There's no need to play truth or dare every time." Ke Luo, who had never spoken much, stared straight at Chi Xu, whose face was flushed and slightly drunk.
"No, no, I can't just forget about my wearing women's clothing."
"That's right, I also want to be served by someone for a week, giving orders at will."
"But I..." Chi Xu was a little embarrassed, and he hesitated to reach out his hand.
However, in the next second, the wine glass in Lin Feng's hand was picked up by Zhong Haochen who suddenly appeared.
"Children, are you an adult?"
Zhong Haochen looked down at the four college students, his cold eyes finally fell on Chi Xu.
"Uncle?" Chi Xu blinked blankly, rubbed again, and stood up from the sofa.
"Uncle?" The other three students were stunned, as if they were caught by their parents when they came out to steal a drink.
It's just that this uncle seems familiar?
"The time is just right, wash your hands and eat."
The kind, short-haired old man came out of the kitchen with a plate of glutinous rice balls, smiling, which warmed Zhong Haochen's heart after finishing his busy work.
"I'll do it." Zhong Haochen put the suitcase in the corner, and quickly took two steps to take the plate from grandma's hand.

Before the words were finished, grandma had already walked to the kitchen, saying:
"Girl, grandma, come and see."
Zhong Haochen was left alone, shaking his head helplessly.
