It's coming, it's finally here... Lu Ming scratched his head in distress, he knew that Xie Chenjun would ask about that matter sooner or later.

"It's been so long since I haven't contacted you. As soon as I contacted you, I asked him about him—if I didn't know, I thought you were going to have something to do with him."

"..."

Xie Chenjun folded his arms, and said with a cold face: "I may not have told you, but before I went abroad, I discussed with Xiaotong and the others. I decided to quit the entrepreneurial team and sell the shares in my hand."

"Well--"

"It was sold to Xu Shaofeng."

"..."

"Of course, I persuaded him for a while, but I always brought a few partners with me. But in the end he agreed, after all, my share is not worth a lot of money."

"so--"

"So I spent my own money on studying in the past two years. I haven't touched the money you gave me, and I have saved some of it—that is, what you see in that form, my deposit balance .”

Lu Ming fiddled with his hair uncomfortably.Why is this guy like a genius?When they settled accounts in front of the computer before, he just glanced at a certain number a few more times, but Xie Chenjun actually noticed it...

"I didn't think too much about that number," Lu Ming defended weakly, "I thought it was your parents who gave you the money, I forgot that I gave you the money..."

"Whether you forget it or not, anyway, I didn't ask for Xu Shaofeng's money," Xie Chenjun said, "I haven't had any contact with him since I left the country, that's why I said I didn't know when you asked me for his phone number—— I've already deleted them, I really don't know."

"I believe you."

"Then what do you want him to call?"

"Uh……"

Lu Ming is really suffering.

Xie Chenjun was surprised and delighted when he received his call.Before that, the two of them hadn't contacted by phone for more than half a year, especially after hearing that Xie Chenjun was busy with his graduation thesis, Lu Ming seldom even sent him messages.

So Xie Chenjun always thought that the two of them had just entered a "half-breakup" state, and almost started to think about how to "recover" Lu Ming after returning to China, but Lu Ming suddenly called - but asked him for Xu Shaofeng's contact information...

Of course, Xie Chenjun would not let go of any opportunity to "think wildly".He naturally understood that Lu Ming had come to "investigate the post" to test whether he had any connection with Xu Shaofeng.But with Lu Ming's usual style, he won't be so narrow-minded, maybe he encountered some difficulties...

Especially after hearing that he did not have Xu Shaofeng's phone number, Lu Ming further asked Xiaotong for their phone numbers, saying that they should have a way to contact them while still in Shanghai.

This time Xie Chenjun couldn't sleep even more. It seemed that Lu Ming was determined to contact Xu Shaofeng.

Is it possible to borrow money?Is there anything else the two of them have in common?

Of course, trying to "hook up" Xu Shaofeng is also a possibility he has considered...

So Xie Chenjun, who suffered from insomnia all night, booked a plane ticket back to China early the next morning.At the same time, he asked Xiao Tong to confirm that Lu Ming had really called them.

Full of anxiety, he went straight to Pingcheng after getting off the plane.The two buddies in his hometown helped him find out Lu Ming's whereabouts long ago, and this is how the "unexpected encounter" between the two at the bar last night...

·

"Um...then you came back in such a hurry, have you handed in your graduation thesis?" Lu Ming tried to change the subject.

"It's over. If there is no problem, there is no need to go back for the time being... So what? What are you looking for him for? Is it because of Uncle Xiao that you want to borrow money from him?"

"It's not enough to borrow money..."

"why?"

"this--"

Just when Lu Ming was in a dilemma, a boy trotted up from the stairs, and when he saw the two of them, he greeted them loudly:

"Old Lu! Brother Jun!"

It was Xiao Yu, who was 14 years old.

"Boys who are not big or small..." Lu Ming smacked his lips.

·

Xiao Yu took three steps and took two steps to come to the two of them.This boy was sweating profusely from running in the winter, but his complexion was ruddy and full of energy. When he saw Xie Chenjun, he hugged him excitedly.

"Brother Jun, long time no see!"

Adolescent boys grow rapidly.I haven't seen him for two years, and the little devil who was following behind him is almost as tall as him.

The boy is now refreshing and handsome, his facial features have gradually opened up, and the baby fat on his face has almost disappeared.

He is very similar to his father, with a cheerful and optimistic nature, with a lingering vitality on his body.It's just that his father's illness in the past two years probably forced the child to accelerate his growth. At this time, his eyes have a little calmness, and he looks much more mature than his peers.

"It's grown taller again." Xie Chenjun patted him with a smile on his face.

"Will you leave this time?" Xiao Yu asked him.

"Shouldn't be leaving."

"Yo……"

Xiao Yu's eyes drifted to Lu Ming, which seemed to be a bit meaningful.But now he is no better than before, not always in the mood to joke.

The young man put on a serious face, approached Lu Ming and whispered, "Well... how about it, old Lu, is there any news?"

Lu Ming knocked on him: "Who are you calling Lao Lu?"

"Teacher Lu..."

"Yes, but I'm not going to give it to you yet."

"why???"

"Are you sure you want to find him? Your parents won't agree."

"..."

Xiao Yu pursed his lips with a troubled expression on his face.Xie Chenjun looked at them strangely:

"What are you talking about? Who are you looking for?"

Both of them looked embarrassed, Xie Chenjun rolled his eyes and said, "Do you need me to avoid it?"

"No, no, brother Jun, don't get me wrong," Xiao Yu said, "I just asked Lao Lu to help me find out about my uncle who is far away in Shanghai—"

"Also call me Lao Lu!"

"Oh! Brother Jun——"

Xiao Yu hid behind Xie Chenjun to seek protection, but Xie Chenjun was a little confused: "Uncle? Do you still have an uncle?"

In his impression, Xiao Yu never mentioned his grandparents since he was a child, and he never visited relatives at his mother's natal house during Chinese New Year.Xie Chenjun always thought that there was no one in Huai Ya's natal family, did Xiao Yu still have an uncle?Why do you think of looking for him now?

"I used to overhear my mother calling him on the phone," Xiao Yu said, "It's usually during Chinese New Year. My mother said that was my uncle, and that they had a good relationship—"

"So you want to borrow money from him?" Xie Chenjun asked.

"Well. Teacher Lu knows him, right? He is a big boss, right? He should be able to borrow some money to treat my father? He shouldn't be desperate..."

"But have you ever thought about how much your father will spend on medical treatment?" Lu Ming said seriously, "This disease will be a bottomless pit in the future. Do you really think that relatives who haven't seen each other for more than ten years can be so generous?"

"Well, but, but it's better than outsiders, right?" Xiao Yu said without much confidence, "Mom said that no matter how much money others lend us, we have to pay back. For relatives, well, we are a family after all. Man, when I grow up, I will pay him back slowly, it is always possible..."

Lu Ming sighed.Instead of arguing with the child about family or not, he said impatiently, "Then, have you ever thought about why your mother didn't contact him if it was so easy to borrow money from your uncle?"

The boy was stunned, thought for a long time, and said: "But, maybe it's because mom doesn't want to contact the family yet? If uncle knows, grandpa and grandma will know too, and then...then mom will be taken back by grandpa and grandma? "

Take it back?Why "take it back"?

Xie Chenjun looked at Lu Ming, but Lu Ming didn't intend to answer in front of Xiao Yu.

It seems that a lot happened that year.Huai Ya is from Shanghai, but she followed Xiao Zhenghan to live in this small place, and she hasn't contacted her family for so many years, presumably her parents disagreed with them, so the two "eloped" out...

But now that their lives are at stake, will they really keep silent because of such things?Everything in front of life and death is a trivial matter, Huai Ya is not like someone who would disregard her husband's life and death for the sake of face and anger...

"Maybe it's because your father doesn't want to contact him?" Lu Ming said in a deep voice, "It's better for you, a child, not to make decisions on your own, so as not to make trouble between adults."

"I don't care about being happy right now!" Xiao Yu was suddenly excited, "It's such a time, even if you will be scolded by grandpa and grandma, it's important to save Dad's life first, right?"

"You know what?" Lu Ming also raised his voice, "Why do you think that parents should naturally forgive their children? Do you know how big a sin it is to abandon your parents for more than ten years? Why do you think that when your grandparents come, you just Is it as simple as 'reproving'?"

"..."

Xiao Yu fell silent all of a sudden.He looked timidly at Lu Ming, then at Xie Chenjun.He has a happy family since he was a child, his parents are loving, and he also loves his parents very much. Naturally, he doesn't understand why his mother made such a choice in the first place.

Is it because of love?He has never encountered a love that can make him desperate, so he can't understand it now.

Although Xie Chenjun also had many doubts, he still comforted the young man and said, "Okay, Xiao Yu, don't worry. If this method is feasible, your parents may have tried it early in the morning. It is not at the end of the mountain, we just persuaded your father to let you go. Let's help him, and you can rest assured that he will be fine for the time being."

Xiao Yu's eyes were red and she didn't speak.

"And even between relatives, it is impossible to give without limit," Xie Chenjun patted his back, and said, "Instead of pinning your hopes on an uncle you have never met, it is better to rely more on you, Mr. Lu—he But he treats you as his own, you can't see that, can you?"

Lu Ming's "old face" blushed, and he scratched his face in embarrassment and said, "Uh, yes, as long as this little bastard stops calling me 'Old Lu'—"

Xie Chenjun glared at him, but he fell silent.

Xiao Yu thought for a while and said, "That's right, although that uncle is a big boss, every time I hear my mother call him, it feels like he's coaxing a child... Maybe he's not a big boss, right?" ?Maybe not much older than me, right?"

"Yeah, it's really not that big of a deal," Lu Ming sneered. "The mental age is about the same as yours. But he has been a soldier, and his military strength is comparable to mine. When the time comes, you have the guts to call him out." Try 'Lao Xu' and see if he can cut it—”

"'Old Xu'?!"

Xie Chenjun opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then remembered the phone call a few days ago, as if everything was connected together.

He looked at Lu Ming: "Difficult, could it be—"

Could it be the person surnamed Xu whom he also knew? ? ?

Seeing that he had slipped his tongue, Lu Ming was annoyed.But anyway, he couldn't hide it anymore, so he simply nodded at Xie Chenjun.

Xie Chenjun was shocked.
