The paranoid milk dog is actually me

Chapter 5

Xie Anheng subconsciously walked towards that figure, but bumped into a large group of passing parents.

"Let's go, let's go after school, hurry up and pick up the baby."

"Hey, watch out, kid!"

"Whose child? Walk and watch the road, don't stare blankly."

There were quite a number of people, and they were chatting shoulder to shoulder. It took a long time to finish the walk. Xie Anheng was pushed back one after another and nearly fell down.

He hurriedly stood firm, pushed aside the group of parents and looked across the street.

The front of the lottery shop is already empty.

The shop owner was chatting with several middle-aged men with beer bellies, as if what he saw just now was just a hallucination.

Xie Anheng rushed over and searched all around, but still did not see that figure.

"Xie Anheng! Why are you here?" Zou Miao passed by after school and called him, "Didn't you go home feeling unwell?"

When she got closer, she found that Xie Anheng's face was frighteningly pale.

Zou Miao was shocked: "Wow, if you are sick, go back and rest quickly, don't run around..."

"It's none of your business." Xie Anheng waved her hand away.

Zou Miao: "..."

Xie Anheng walked back a few steps, but unexpectedly Zou Miao caught up with him and dragged him: "Xie Anheng... I... that day of biology class, I'm sorry, I won't do this again in the future."

Seeing that Xie Anheng was ignoring her, Zou Miao was heartbroken: "Really, I'm really sorry. I'll pay you a painkiller spray. Don't hate me, okay?"

As soon as the words were finished, Xie Anheng turned around abruptly, his eyes seemed to be filled with ice, and Zou Miao subconsciously took half a step back.

But only for an instant.

Zou Miao thought he was leaving, and Xie Anheng suddenly asked her, "Do you have a cousin from high school called Cen Xiangyang?"

"Ah... that's right." He was willing to talk to himself, and Zou Miao hurriedly said, "Are you looking for my cousin?"

Xie Anheng: "I want him to help me."

Zou Miao: "What's the matter, tell me, I'll help you, I don't need him!"

Xie Anheng: "You can't help."

Zou Miao pouted: "I can help!"

Xie Anheng looked back at Zou Miao, the girl was about the same height as him, her arms were thinner than a bamboo pole.

He asked, "How tall is your cousin?"

"Hmm..." Zou Miao looked around and pointed to a parent, "It's about the same as him."

The parent was a head and a half taller than both of them.

Satisfied, Xie Anheng turned his head: "If I can call your brother to help, I'll tell you who gave me the painkiller spray."

"Really?!" Zou Miao was pleasantly surprised, and sold his cousin without saying a word, "Wait! I'll call him right away!"

On weekends, Xie Xingzhi had a rare sleep and woke up naturally.

He looked at the desk calendar, made sure that nothing major happened today, and decided to go to the city center.

I spent a few of the cash on my body in the past few days, and made a small fortune yesterday in the sports lottery. The addition and subtraction turned out to be a few hundred yuan more than the beginning.

But even so, if he didn't get the money, the rest of the money would be spent soon, not to mention that he would have to raise a cub.

Xie Xingzhi remembered that after two or three years, the higher authorities began to pay attention to traditional technology and cultural inheritance, allocated a large amount of funds and issued many favorable policies. Make the store bigger and open many chain stores later.

Although it is a bit different from his profession, it is also a good opportunity.

When he arrived at the place, Xie Xingzhi turned into an old shop.

"What do you want to buy? Most of the things are here, just take a look." The shop owner is an old man, smoking a cigarette, sitting on a soft couch and playing chess with his neighbors.

Xie Xingzhi smelled the familiar aroma of Chinese herbal medicine, glanced at it casually, and asked, "If I buy from you on a regular basis, what is the lowest price?"

The old man paused with his raised chess hand: "That depends on how much you take."

"Yam, grass fruit, clove, licorice, tangerine peel..." Xie Xingzhi reported some medicinal materials from memory, "At least ten kilograms of each."

The chess pieces hit the stool with a "bang bang" sound, and the old man waved his hand: "You play, you play, I have a business."

After driving everyone else away, he stood up with his cane: "Little young man in business? It's not easy to make money in this industry now."

Xie Xingzhi knew that the traditional industry was at a low point at this time, so he smiled lightly and didn't explain much: "There are children at home to raise."

The old head looked at him in surprise: "How old is the child?"

"Junior high school." Afraid of being misunderstood again, Xie Xingzhi hurriedly said, "It's my younger brother."

"Oh...Young son, you are favored, and you have to come out to earn money to support your brother." He muttered as he walked towards the warehouse, "It costs money to raise a child, and if you want to be rich, it is a bottomless pit. It all costs money."

"But in my opinion, there are ways to raise people without money and without money. Just let them break through on their own. If you can break through, so can he."

This old man coincided with some of his ideas, Xie Xingzhi smiled: "I have suffered a lot, but I still want to give him the best in every aspect, and he can develop better in the future."

"You dote on him. With you as a big brother, this kid's life is good." The old man brought over a stack of notebooks, "What kind of medicinal materials do you want, when do you want them, and how much do you want? Write it down, and then we can talk about the price."

"Don't worry, you won't be able to find any medicine with better quality and cheaper price than mine in the whole city. I won't bully you, old man."

"Don't worry, I heard that your store has been here for a long time, so I came here on purpose." Xie Xing had dealt with this old man several times in his life, and he has already figured out his temper, he is a man of temperament.

It took less than an hour to negotiate on the supply of medicinal materials. When he walked out of the shop, Xie Xingzhi was in a good mood.

A good start will soon bring the business back on track, and it will be more secure for him and Xiao Xie Anheng.

Ten years ago, there was no convenient online car-hailing service. At noon, the traffic flow was relatively light. Xie Xingzhi stood at the intersection and waited for a long time but did not get a taxi.

The sun was so strong that he could only go to the shade of the station to take shelter.

"Mom...I miss Dad."

"good."

Xie Xingzhi turned his head, and there was a mother and daughter waiting for the bus not far away.

The little girl looked about the same age as Xie Anheng, and her voice was full of grievances: "I'm already very good, when will daddy come back to accompany me?"

The girl's mother touched her head: "Daddy has to work."

Little girl: "Daddy has to work every day and never has time for me!"

"Only by working can you earn money to buy things for you. Your new schoolbag, new clothes and shoes are all bought by Dad with money."

"I don't want these things, I just want my father..." The girl pursed her mouth and muttered in a low voice, "I don't want new schoolbags, new clothes and shoes, can you bring my father back to accompany me?"

The young woman is silent.

After waiting for a few seconds, she whispered her daughter into her arms: "Don't talk nonsense, you have grown up, you should be more sensible."

But the girl burst into tears: "I don't want to be sensible...all my classmates laugh at me as a wild child without a father...can't he spare a day to be with me?"

"Where are you going? Are you going?"

A taxi just stopped in front of Xie Xingzhi, and the driver's loud voice brought him back to his senses.

"Go." Xie Xingzhi looked away from the mother and daughter, opened the car door and sat in, "Go straight and turn left at the second traffic light."

"okay."

Xie Xingzhi looked back from the car window, the little girl was still hugging her mother, and seemed to be still crying.

Little Xie Anheng's dejected look appeared in front of his eyes without warning last night.

He sat upright, bowed his head and pinched the center of his brows.

The driver drove very steadily and quietly, the body shook slightly and regularly, Xie Xingzhi was a little lost in thought.

The sun shone on him all the way, but he didn't even notice it.

"The road in the street is too narrow to drive through, so I'll pull over here?" the driver turned around and asked.

"Ah..." Xie Xingzhi woke up startled, and took out some change from his wallet, "Yes, thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

The weather was hot, and there were no people on the street. Xie Xingzhi walked casually along the alley for a while, and suddenly he didn't want to go back to the guest house.

The conversation between the mother and daughter just now echoed repeatedly in his mind, and after a while he remembered the voice of the old woman in the guest house.

Xie Xingzhi was a little annoyed.

Suddenly, two children rushed past in front of him.

"Let's go, let's watch a good show, there is a fight ahead!"

"Huh? Who is it?" The shorter boy stopped.

"You don't even know this? He Mingxu and Xie Anheng!"

Xie Xingzhi's heart tightened and he turned his head.

"I don't know, what happened?"

"Fuck, are you from Martian?" The boy with a rough voice was shocked, "Last week, He Mingxu and a few people gang-beaten Xie Anheng. The teacher invited his parents and fined him to raise the flag and go to the rostrum to read a review next Monday. !"

"So exciting?"

"No, that's why He Mingxu is upset. Is he someone who can be bullied? Immediately, he called his senior classmates to deal with that boy Xie Anheng. The news has already spread to all three grades of us. Hurry up." Come with me to see."

The two boys ran away while talking, and Xie Xingzhi hurriedly followed behind them.

How could this be?

Xie Xingzhi was sure that nothing like this had happened to him in his previous life.

Although He Mingxu bullied him, he was still just a little brat in his class. The thing he was most afraid of was being invited by his parents, let alone dare to cause trouble again after he finished inviting his parents.

He followed the two boys to near the school gate.

Besides them, there were quite a few people squatting on the curb ahead, all students.

"Are you sure? He Mingxu made an appointment at the school gate? Does he have a bag in his head?"

"..." The boy scratched the back of his head, "But I heard someone say that just now, and I said it several times that I was at the school gate, it's weird..."

"You heard the news?"

"Me too, I've been waiting here with my buddy for a long time, where's the person?"

Xie Xingzhi frowned, and was just about to go forward to see what happened, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind——

"Don't run! Catch him! I must kill you today!"

"Xie Anheng, run quickly—"

Xie Xingzhi turned around.

With a "bang", a hot little body slammed into his arms.

——Xie Anheng raised his head and met the man's downcast eyes.

After a long absence, he smelled that scent again.

Clean, warm and reassuring.

Xie Anheng was stunned for half a second, grabbed Xie Xingzhi's clothes decisively, and pointed behind his back: "Someone wants to hit me..."

He was terrified and squeezed hard into Xie Xingzhi's arms: "Big brother, help me..."
