Chapter 9

"Today I went to see the haunted house in the legend of Tiandu. Looking at it from a distance, I thought it was a chimney. Even at noon, the ghostly aura soaring into the sky enveloped the whole building. In addition, the one who lived inside Big guy, it’s the first disobedient ghost I’ve encountered——"My Diary"

Chen Xiuyuan stood up abruptly, so suddenly that his knee hit the coffee table, the orange juice spilled all over the floor in an instant, and the empty goblet fell to the floor and shattered...

"Xiao Chen! I'm just guessing! No, I'm talking nonsense! Don't take it personally!" Luo Changlin yelled and explained instantly, stood up and explained, and ran behind Zhao Wenwen's chair.And Zhao Ziwen also acted like a big brother, his face was a little blue at the moment, but he stood up without hesitation, directly blocking Luo Changlin behind.

But there was no evil wind blowing in this house, and there was no evil spirit howling to engulf the two of them. Chen Xiuyuan, who was deeply feared by them, just stood there, lowered his head, and asked in a low voice: "So, my father?" Died because of me, and even my mother left because of me?" There was no trace of anger on his young face, only confusion and pain...

"He made up nonsense." Zhao Ziwen said, in order to save Luo Changlin's life, and also because he didn't want to poke Chen Xiuyuan's sore spot.What Luo Changlin said just now was almost accusing him of killing his father and mother, which is unacceptable to ordinary people, not to mention, Chen Xiuyuan's affection for his father is far beyond that of an ordinary father and son...

"Yes, I'm lying. I'm just a big talker, and I'm crazy. Once I get excited, I can say anything, and I like to talk nonsense about everything. Don't believe me." Luo Changlin nodded hastily.

Chen Xiuyuan slowly raised his head, his gaze stayed on the faces of the two people, and then he smiled at them... But at this moment, colorless tears rolled down his cheeks... He blinked, There were broken tears on the eyelashes, and more tears fell, almost forming a line on his cheeks...

There was no sound of sobbing or whimpering, he just stood there, crying silently.At this time, both Zhao Ziwen and Luo Changlin froze. They wanted to comfort them, but their minds went blank, and they couldn't find half a syllable that could be uttered.

Finally, Chen Xiuyuan spoke again, breaking the silence with a nasal voice: "Last night, the first time I heard you say meritorious deeds, I thought about it. Isn't there always something lonely on TV?" Xing, is it something like hit and miss? Actually, today, I just want to confirm..."

"There is nothing to confirm. How can you believe the TV? It's all nonsense. Look at the things I told you, which TV said it? What I said is true... No, not all of them True. About you is false and has absolutely no scientific basis."

"I don't know how many people die in traffic accidents in China every year." Zhao Ziwen pushed Luo Changlin and gave him another look, finally shutting up the nonsense Luo Changlin, "Uncle's matter It was an accident and a coincidence, and it was also a tragedy caused by some people's overindulgence. And you were not there at the time, so what does it have to do with you?"

"Even if I'm not there, there are a lot of things I can do"

"You didn't control those two bastards to hit uncle, did you?" Zhao Wenwen asked, Chen Xiuyuan raised his head instantly, his black eyes were full of fierceness, and he stared at him murderously, "Wipe your nose." But this time Zhao Xiwen didn't turn his back and felt weak all over. He looked directly at him, picked up the tissue box at hand and handed it over.

"..." Chen Xiuyuan lost the staring competition this time.He withdrew his fierce gaze, took the tissue box silently, and obediently lowered his head and blew his nose.

"As for my aunt, you also said that she has even left with peace of mind and started a new life. This shows that she is happy and happy, doesn't it? So, don't blame yourself, the world is worse than you There are so many people, can you say that they all suffered retribution, or were restrained by their families? Obviously not."

Chen Xiuyuan didn't answer right away, he lowered his head and remained silent for good intentions, then finally raised his head and said in a low voice: "...Thank you." His eyes and the tip of his nose were still red.Originally not very old, nor a mature face, coupled with this pitiful appearance now, it is hard to imagine how intimidating he used to be...

Now, he looked as if he was younger, as if he was only fifteen or sixteen years old.So much so, Zhao Wenwen couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed his head, because he also had such a big nephew.But when he realized what he was doing, the BOSS-sama, who had acted tough just now, was finally sweating again—he wouldn't be mistaken for taking advantage of it, right?

However, Chen Xiuyuan didn't get angry, he just smiled at him again, and said to him for the second time: "Thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome..." Zhao Wenwen replied, but an alarm bell sounded in his heart, and he didn't know why the alarm bell sounded so loudly.Could it be because of his sudden heartbeat?

"I've been bothering you for so long, it's time for me to say goodbye."

"I'll take you back to Blue Mint."

"No..." Chen Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Boss, I want to ask for leave today, I want to go home."

"Okay, I'm on leave. I'll drive you back right away. But what about your bike? Do you need me to pick you up for work tomorrow?"

"No trouble, I can take the bus home, and I can take the bus to work tomorrow."

"No trouble, I'm fine anyway." Zhao Wenwen said, and left with Chen Xiuyuan naturally, the two of them... seemed to have forgotten something.

So when the two of them closed the door, they always felt as if they saw something even weirder and weirder than last night's Die Xian. A certain magic stick couldn't help shouting: "Damn! Blind my dog's eyes!"

At this time, the car outside had already started, and when Zhao Ziwen turned the steering wheel to let the car drive out of the garage, he suddenly said: "Xiao Chen, about going there... I do have someone I want to see—my mother. "

"Okay, bring something that the old lady used during her lifetime that day."

"Is the comb okay?"

"Yes." Chen Xiuyuan nodded.

The conversation between the two ended here, although the distance from Zhao Xiwen's home to Chen Xiuyuan's home was longer than from Lan Minhe to his home.However, Zhao Ziwen didn't feel restless as he did when he came here. In fact, it was the opposite, he almost enjoyed the peace.

When there are not many vehicles passing by or at red lights, he will turn his head intentionally or unintentionally to look at Chen Xiuyuan, or sometimes he can see Chen Xiuyuan from the corner of his eye without turning his head. Has been quietly and focused on looking out the window.

Chen Xiuyuan's eye sockets and the tip of his nose are still a little red, and his black eyes are getting deeper and deeper in the night. When he blinks, the shadow of his eyelashes will definitely make many girls jealous. His lips are a little dry, which makes Zhao Ziwen regret not pouring more on him. Some drinks, occasionally the car lights on the opposite side shone on his face, and he could still vaguely see the traces of his tears...

Suddenly, Zhao Ziwen felt strong regret and shame for his behavior of calling Chen Xiuyuan to the office and self-righteously talking about nurturing.Why was he so arrogant and arrogant at that time?He would have almost ruined this kid, if he hadn't had those dangerous and terrifying powers.

For the first time, Zhao Ziwen sincerely rejoiced that Chen Xiuyuan possessed these powers, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous...

"Put the car on the side of the road. The road around the house is relatively narrow. You can't turn around when you leave."

When Chen Xiuyuan opened his mouth, Zhao Wenwen realized that they were almost at their destination, which made him a little regretful: "It's okay, I'm good at reversing the car, so it's no problem to take you to your door."

"Boss..."

"Ok?"

"I suddenly remembered that I didn't seem to have told you where my family lives." For the first time, Chen Xiuyuan turned his eyes away from the not-so-good scenery outside the car window, and turned to stare at Zhao Wen Wen's body...

"Squeak!" The brakes were so hasty that the tires made an unpleasant sound after violent friction with the ground!Fortunately, at this time, there were not many vehicles near Chen Xiuyuan's house, so no bloody accident happened.

"Xiao Chen..." Just now, Zhao Ziwen's good feelings about Chen Xiuyuan's power disappeared completely in an instant, and the original feeling of trembling and fear returned again!At the same time, Zhao Ziwen realized that he had done a stupid thing. He felt sorry for a strong man, and felt lucky that the strong man had power, just because that strong man temporarily showed weakness and ownerlessness, but there will be no next time. !Zhao Ziwen tried hard to write the word cautious in his heart, and at the same time tried to find a reasonable explanation for his practice of spying on people's privacy, "I did check some information about you, but..."

"Boss, you are really interesting." However, before he could finish a sentence, Chen Xiuyuan interrupted him with his own laughter, and patted Zhao Xiwen's shoulder with his hand, "Check it out!" It's okay, thank you for taking me home."

After saying this, he took the initiative to get out of the car.Watching Chen Xiuyuan walk into the buildings, Zhao Ziwen couldn't help lying on the steering wheel, and after a while, he sat down again and started the car.

When Zhao Ziwen returned home, Luo Changlin, who had planned to stay for a few more days, had disappeared, but left a note on the coffee table: Boss, I miss my old man, I went back to see him. PS: Be optimistic about that master, I will bring a few professionals over next time I come back, it’s not okay to leave him like that. PS2: It doesn't matter if you don't like it, don't force it, the safety of the boss comes first, call me if you need anything.

Zhao Ziwen sighed, he understood why Luo Changlin left in such a hurry, in fact, when he saw Chen Xiuyuan crying for his father, he also couldn't help wondering if his old man was still tough, Then I remembered my mother who just left a few years ago...

If it was normal, his nightlife had just begun at this time, but today, he decided to take a shower and sleep now, and then get up early tomorrow to call the old man.

The next day, as Zhao Ziwen said yesterday, Chen Xiuyuan took the bus to work in Lan Minhe.

Today, my colleagues are very enthusiastic. Even the person who usually likes to pretend not to see him the most, today he ran over to greet him with a big smile on his face.When he was changing clothes, a group of people crowded around him. Even the female colleagues seemed to selectively ignore that this place was a men's locker room, and squeezed in as well.

Men and women twitter differently.But the main meanings expressed are all similar, "Introduce me to the boss too." "Oh, I don't want to compete with you, we also know we can't compete." "I want to know more friends of the boss, so I can get out of the sea of ​​suffering. "

If these people were talking about him behind his back, Chen Xiuyuan could naturally ignore them, but when they blocked his way and bombarded him indiscriminately, Chen Xiuyuan couldn't ignore them. up.

A gust of cold wind suddenly blew into the overheated locker room... Except for Chen Xiuyuan, most of the others shivered and felt their hearts tremble.They all closed their mouths at the same time, but at most they just felt that something was wrong, and no one chose to leave until...

"Xiao Chen! There are so many people crowded here? It's time to get ready for the opening outside, why don't you all go to work!" The voice turned out to be Tong Wei.

When the real master came, everyone dispersed in the blink of an eye.

"Deputy Manager Tong."

"Don't call me the deputy manager, call me Brother Tong." Tong Wei smiled, "Come upstairs with me."

"Wait for me to change clothes." Chen Xiuyuan nodded, and finally had time to change into work clothes, "Boss looking for me?"

"He hasn't come yet." Tong Wei shook his head, the smile just now disappeared, but the melancholy returned, "Don't always think about him, you should think more about yourself."

"Uh...Brother Tong, you really misunderstood me. I was working for the BOSS, not being hired by him."

"Oh." Tong Wei nodded in agreement, but he obviously didn't believe it. After all, with Zhao Xiwen's identity, status, and money, what would he need to ask Chen Xiuyuan, a person who didn't graduate from high school, for help?

Chen Xiuyuan could only shut up, and decide whether to use actual actions to prove himself after seeing the situation later.

But what surprised both Chen Xiuyuan and Tong Wei was that as soon as the two of them stepped out of the elevator, Tong Wei's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and immediately asked Chen Xiuyuan to wait a while, while he himself Going to the side to answer the phone: "Hello, BOSS? Box No. [-]...Let Xiao Chen go upstairs, just him? BOSS..."

It was alright at first, but later, even though he tried his best to keep his voice down, there was a fierce quarrel. After a quarter of an hour, Tong Wei ended the conversation and walked back with a gloomy face.
