heavy rock

Cafe, corner on the second floor, the waiter put down the food ordered by the customer, bowed and left.

Chong Yan pushed the coffee to the young man on the opposite side, muttering softly, "I have to drink coffee at night, can you still sleep? Let's eat something to replenish energy."

Hai Qingtian waved his hand, "It's okay, I can only work when I am refreshed at night."

Chongyan's sleep quality has always been poor, and he dare not drink stimulating drinks at night, so he only ordered spaghetti and milk.He had just finished studying by himself in the evening, and he had already digested the little food he ate in the cafeteria for dinner.

"The taste is just average." Chong Yan devoured the food while taking the time to make a comment. "It's not as delicious as my aunt's. Why don't you go to my house."

Hai Qingtian showed a salivating expression, "Well, your food is delicious. But it's not good if I always go, I have more troubles on my body, and I don't want to get anyone involved."

Thinking of his occupation, Chong Yan hesitated, "Have you never thought about changing your occupation?"

Hai Qingtian looked at him, with a slight warmth in his eyes, "I thought about it, but now is not the time." He didn't want to continue talking about his future, so he turned the laptop in his hand, "Look at this. I found Something interesting."

While stuffing something into his mouth, Chong Yan glanced up at the computer screen. On the screen was a handwritten receipt, claiming that he had received an information consultation fee of x ten thousand yuan from Luyuan Chemical Co., Ltd., and the signature was a bit scribbled, so he could barely read it. It was a man named Cheng Fuhai.The handwriting is strong, it should be a man.The date was nine months ago.

"what is this?"

"It's very interesting," Hai Qingtian said with a sly smile, "Zhang He hired a private detective half a year ago. Guess what he wants to investigate?"

Chong Yan was taken aback, "Nine months ago?"

The date of the receipt was nine months ago, which means that Zhang He had already found out what Zhang He wanted to check earlier, and the business was over, so he would pay the fee.After that, it happened that the Li family came to the sea to find the Jade Dragon Pendant and brought him back to the capital. Is there any connection between this?

Chong Yan was unconsciously stirring the spaghetti on the plate with a fork in his hand. He felt that Zhang He should have nothing to do with the jade dragon pendant. After all, it was the legacy of Mrs. Zhang... Zhang?

open? !

Chong Yan was so excited that he almost dropped the fork in his hand, "Is Zhang He related to the old lady of the Li family?"

Hai Qingtian lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head lightly, "This...hasn't been discovered yet. Zhang He's parents are all abroad, and I haven't found any relatives in China."

All kinds of news were going around in Chongyan's mind. Leaving aside whether Zhang He had any relationship with Li Chengyun's mother clan, what he wanted to know more was whether Zhang He's investigation had anything to do with him being brought back to the capital?

"Can you find out what he's investigating?"

Hai Qingtian hesitated for a moment, "It's not easy, I can try."

Having been in touch for so long, Chong Yan has a somewhat understanding of his character, and it was the first time he saw him showing such an unsure look.But this is also understandable. After all, they are peers, and they are in a real competitive relationship with each other, and they understand the importance of protecting customer privacy.

Chong Yan reminded him, "Don't start with the private detective."

"I'll give it a try." Hai Qingtian's expression calmed down a little. He was already investigating Zhang He, so maybe he could find some clues.

Chong Yan pushed the plate aside and sipped the warm milk in the cup, "You called me here today just to see this receipt?"

"The main purpose is to report to you the direction of work." Hai Qingtian lowered his voice and said, "I plan to adjust the direction of the investigation and check his overseas situation in his early years. I checked Zhang He's family background. His property is definitely not as simple as a chemical plant. He has invested abroad, and he also holds stocks in several companies with good development momentum, and he is still trading futures.”

This is about the same as Chong Yan estimated.In his previous life, he had been vaguely aware that Zhang He's main income came from foreign investment business. In comparison, the domestic chemical plant named "Lu Yuan" was just opened for fun, as if to cover his own trump card. A deliberately erected signboard.

"The more I investigate this person, the more I feel that I don't understand him." Chong Yan shook his head, "It really is a thousand-year-old demon."

Hai Qingtian sighed and said: "Yeah, so I also have doubts about his motives for staying in China. His parents, family and career focus are all abroad, but he ran back to China alone to set up a factory. There must be something hidden in it." .”

"I suspect he will come to me again." Chong Yan recalled Zhang Helai's nonchalant look when he struck up a conversation, and felt an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling in his heart, "I guess he would appear at the school gate and pretend to meet by chance , or run to the flower shop to block me. Which one do you think he will choose?"

Hai Qingtian thought for a while and said, "The second one. Because the first one is too obvious!"

Chong Yan looked at him and smiled, "Well, I am more inclined to the second one. The consensus is so unanimous, I really should celebrate it... just find a place to have a drink or two."

Hai Qingtian is also a night owl, and he immediately became interested when he heard him say this, "Okay, I know a good place, let's go, I will take you to see what a real pole dance is."

Hai Qingtian took him to a bar that young people like to go to.There is a lively atmosphere, scantily clad men and women, rhythmic dance music and ecstatic pole dancing performances.Although Hai Qingtian knew that Chong Yan was a student, Chong Yan always gave him the feeling that he was more mature, so he always ignored Chong Yan's age and regarded him as a person like himself, so he took it for granted Quite a few beers.

Chong Yan didn't feel that he was underage, so naturally he wouldn't remind him of anything.He liked the lively atmosphere here, but that's all.After all, his youthful and frivolous days are long gone, and his old heart, which has been turning a lot of times, won't beat easily for these things anymore.

He sat in the whirlpool of feasting and feasting like a bystander, calm and vicissitudes.He found that the fresh and young bodies dangling in front of his eyes didn't seem to arouse his interest anymore, he just watched indifferently, whenever someone came over with a glass of wine, he only felt it was funny.There is a feeling of walking in the park and seeing a child laughing and kicking the ball to his feet.

Chongyan sadly found that he had become a real old guy, only his eyes were still moving, but his body and soul were already bored with everything he saw.

"I'm going back." Chong Yan put down his wine glass and picked up the schoolbag under the seat, "Go on and play."

Hai Qingtian glanced in the direction of the stage reluctantly, "I'll see you off."

"No need." Chong Yan pressed his shoulder, "I'll take a taxi back, it's not far from here."

"Okay then," Hai Qingtian said, "keep in touch often?"

"keep in touch."

It was 01:30 in the morning when Chong Yan returned home, and the community was very quiet.Dazed, Chong Yan took out the key and opened the door, looking at the dark living room and the faint starlight coming in from the window, he was suddenly exhausted physically and mentally.He threw his schoolbag on the carpet and sat down lazily on the sofa.

"It's so fucking quiet..."

"It's been a long time since I've been so quiet...I'm really not used to it..."

"You didn't drive people away?"

"I can't hurry. Are you waiting to see him standing on the roof one day?"

"Qin Dongyue is not such a fragile person."

"Gong Zhi didn't look like such a fragile person back then. Who can tell the attribute of fragility from the outside?"

"So what exactly do you want?"

"Yeah, what do you want? If I say that I want a healthy warm body lying next to me, but it has nothing to do with sex, will it seem hypocritical?"

"Of course hypocritical, do you believe it yourself?"

"I actually... believe it."

Chong Yan looked at the blurred outline of the crystal lamp above his head, and silently mouthed: I really believe it.

When Chong Yan woke up, he found that he had slept on the sofa all night, and his body was still covered with the down jacket he wore during the day.Except for a little numbness in the waist and legs, there was no other discomfort.Chong Yan lamented that the young body is really different.If he was in his thirties, he might not be able to get up if he slept like this for a night.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, the nanny just happened to bring breakfast.After breakfast, Chong Yan took a taxi to the flower shop. Being alone at home was a bit annoying, and he didn't want to do his homework, so he had to find something to do for himself.

Chong Yan got off at the intersection in front of the flower shop, packed a box of snacks and a few cups of milk tea at the dessert shop he often went to, and walked slowly to the shop.The little girls in the flower shop sometimes compete for results, and the losers will be sent out to buy drinks. Chong Yan followed suit a few times, and felt that the food in this shop tasted pretty good.

When we arrived at the flower shop, the little girls were really happy.Although the handsome boss always has a straight face, he has a pretty good temper in general, and he often buys them something to eat.The only downside is that it's a little too young.They are more willing to visit the store is the other three bosses, each of them wants to have a good figure, good looks, and the most important thing is that they are of the right age.

Chong Yan checked the accounts of the previous few days, and then helped the little girls to start tidying up the flower stands.This is a lot of hard work, although a flower pot is not heavy, but it can't hold up a large number, and after moving it up and down, it doesn't take long to get tired and sweat.

The wind chime on the door frame jingled, and another guest came in.

Chong Yan stood on the ladder behind the flower stand, and put a few packages of tools that were not commonly used in the high storage cabinet.Just as the cabinet door was closed, a mellow male voice behind the flower stand asked, "Is this a narcissus?"

The clerk introduced with a smile, "This is Mrs. Green Dress, a variant of the Cantabrian narcissus. The flower is larger and the fragrance is stronger."

Chong Yan carefully pushed aside a clump of green radishes on the flower stand, and saw a familiar silhouette standing in front of the window admiring the daffodil bonsai on the flower stand.

He is of medium build, well-dressed, and gentle in speech and demeanor. You can recognize who he is without looking back.

What Chongyan didn't expect was that the jokes he and Hai Qingtian had made came true, that Zhang He actually came to the flower shop to pretend to meet him, and he was so...can't wait.

Chong Yan frowned, climbed down from the ladder, walked around the flower stand, and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, what a coincidence?"

A look of surprise appeared on Zhang He's face, "The little brother is indeed here. It's not a coincidence. I need to find the little brother for something. I wonder if I can take a step to talk?"

Chong Yan wondered secretly, he remembered that Zhang He likes to beat around the bush when he speaks, so he changed his style today?

"Okay," Chong Yan put down the flower scissors in his hand, and said with a smile, "There is a teahouse on the corner of the street, let's sit together."

Zhang He looked at him seriously, smiled and said, "Okay."
