girl, don't do this

"Is there such a thing?" Seeing off Wang's father and son, Cen Zi was quite surprised after hearing his wife's description.

"It's absolutely true." When Ms. Ji thought about the situation when she first met Tao Jiaran, she still couldn't restrain the agitation in her heart.

Cen Zishi frowned, leaning against the sofa without speaking.

"Zishi, tell me..." She weighed her words and finally gritted her teeth, "...is she still alive?"

"I don't know..." Cen Zishi frowned deeply, "When the old man just passed away, I went to see her..."

"Ah? How long has it been? You didn't tell me!" Ms. Ji exclaimed, "Tell me! How many things are you hiding from me?" She grabbed Cen Zishi's clothes.

"Wife, where are you thinking? It's not a happy thing, as long as I know it myself," Cen Zishi patted his wife's hand comfortingly to calm her anxiety, "I only have you and Mengmeng now."

"What about her?" Ms. Ji thought of that person's pure and arrogant temperament.

"She..." Cen Zishi's eyes were empty, and he fell into the memory, "I don't know... When I saw her that time, I felt that she was just a shell, and I don't know where her soul was. She is both He didn't want to come back, and he didn't want to say anything more to me, so we just had a cup of coffee each, and sat there all afternoon." Cen Zi couldn't help but get red eyes when he thought of the scene at that time.

"How can a person be so paranoid?" Ms. Ji sighed, "Is that still love?"

"...It's evil fate." Cen Zishi sighed.

The couple sat together speechless for a while, and Cen Zishi finally made up his mind, "That Tao Jiaran, I will meet her when I get a chance."

"...What if it's true?" Ms. Ji was worried.

"If it's true... that's a good thing." Cen Zishi said.

Once Tao Jiaran arrived in City C, he found a hotel to stay in.After everything settled down, she called Zou Yuying.The first time, no one answered?I'm afraid it's a harassing phone call.Tao Jiaran dialed again patiently.After five times, the other party finally picked up.An irritable woman's voice, "What else do you want! I have already resigned, can you let me go!"

"Manager Zou?" Tao Jiaran suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked carefully.

"Are you?" The woman became nervous when she heard the other party call out her former position.

"I'm Tao Jiaran."

"Tao...President Tao?"

"it's me."

The woman on the other end of the microphone stopped talking.

Tao Jiaran considered his words: "I heard you resigned?"

"Ah..." The woman became visibly nervous again.

"Why did you quit your job? Why, is there a better place?" Tao Jiaran tried her best to keep her tone soft, as she sensed the uneasiness in this woman's heart.

"Ah... that... Mr. Tao, the water is boiling, so I won't talk to you..." The woman hung up the phone in a hurry, leaving only a busy voice.

There are articles here.Tao Jiaran thought to himself.

She ate casually, wandered around the streets and alleys of City C, and went in to shop when she saw a bookstore.For the streets of City C, Tao Jiaran can be said to be very knowledgeable.When she was in college, she worked several jobs at the same time, and she was reluctant to spend money to take the bus. She often ran to those who were close to her for exercise, and only took the bus when she was too far away.After a few months, the money was earned without delay, and I became familiar with the roads, and even became a living map later on. I didn’t know that I thought she was a local.

Until the sunset, she visited countless bookstores, but found nothing unusual.Thus, Tao Jiaran ruled out a certain possibility, and she turned her head and went straight to the audio-visual counter of the nearest large supermarket.

The first supermarket, nothing out of the ordinary.The second one, sure enough, found something that shouldn't appear here.

The cooperation model between Chinese and b publishing houses is that the main distribution channel of b publishing house is the Xinhua Bookstore series, and the second distribution channel of Chinese is the private bookstore channel.As long as the book is a collaboration between the two, there is absolutely no precedent for it to enter the supermarket.So what is the origin of these things that appear here now?Unless, the supermarket has shady purchase channels.

A certain conjecture made Tao Jiaran very disturbed. If that was the case, what kind of earthquake would it be?Thinking of what he was doing and the turmoil it might cause, Tao Jiaran couldn't help but gasped.When she decided to investigate this matter, it was all on impulse, and she couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes.But what about the current situation?It's not that she doesn't worry that some people may jump over the wall in a hurry, but she has no turning back. She must at least be worthy of the high salary she gets as an executive, otherwise who can be worthy of a vegetarian meal?

After thinking clearly, Tao Jiaran no longer hesitated, she planned to go to the food area to buy some food, go back to the hotel to sort out the materials, and then rush to the next city tomorrow.

Walking out of the supermarket, the lights are already on.Tao Jiaran stood by the side of the road, wanting to take a taxi back to the hotel.Obviously, this is the time when shifts are handed over, and it is not easy to rent out.

"Hey! My bag!" Suddenly came a woman's scream.A black shadow flashed in front of Tao Jiaran's eyes, Tao Jiaran conditioned reflex, stretched out his long legs, and tripped the black shadow.The black shadow looked thin and not tall, he staggered up and ran forward desperately.Tao Jiaran didn't think much, and ran after him with his legs wide open.The black shadow had a nimble body, but it was not as good as Tao Jiaran's long legs and physical strength. The black shadow gradually lost his strength, and he got into a dead end in a panic, until he ran to the end of the alley and found that there was no way.Tao Jiaran blocked the way.Seeing this, Hei Ying took out a fruit knife and turned to Tao Jiaran: "Get out of the way! Or I'll stab you!"

With the help of the moonlight and the faint lights from nearby houses, Tao Jiaran could see the other person's appearance clearly.That was obviously a girl, even though she was wearing a hat, her body was so thin that no ups and downs could be seen, her facial features were pretty, and her small face was fair, but at the moment her face was ferocious and at a loss, panting heavily. , Qi, calm down the breathing just after the strenuous running.She looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, her hand holding the knife was still trembling slightly, her big wet eyes were like an innocent deer seeing the muzzle of a hunter's gun.Tao Jiaran didn't know why he had such a perception. This kid was obviously a robber, a robber who had nowhere to go and wanted to commit murder. Perhaps it was because those big bright eyes were too similar to Cen Meng.Tao Jiaran couldn't bear it. "Give me the knife!" she said.

"Don't force me! I'm not afraid of you!" The child was still trying to be brave.

"You will be sentenced like this, and your life will be ruined." Tao Jiaran's voice was cool.

"I haven't eaten all day! I'm hungry!" The child's voice was crying, "If you don't get out of the way, I will really stab you!"

Tao Jiaran only noticed the tattered clothes on the child, she sighed secretly, God is not fair, they are also young girls, Cen Meng is so well-dressed, but this child in front of her, how innocent?Couldn't even get a full meal.If there was no grandma to raise her up, would she have fallen to this point now?

"Give me that bag, and I'll give you money to let you eat." Tao Jiaran said, walking towards the child step by step.

"Don't come here!" The child was frightened by her pressing every step of the way, "You are not good people! None of you! You will only send me to the police!"

Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, Tao Jiaran rushed over and grabbed her wrist, trying to take the knife away.The child saw her struggling and struggling desperately, pushing and shoving Tao Jiaran hysterically.While tearing, tearing, Tao Jiaran only felt a pain, and the fruit knife made a cut on the back of her left hand.

Bang!Seeing the blood, the child was frightened, his hands trembled, and the knife fell to the ground. "Are you okay?" She was at a loss and cried, "I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it..."

Enduring the pain, Tao Jiaran picked up the women's bag that the child had dropped while tearing it.

"Sister!" The child plopped on the ground and hugged her legs, "Please, sister! Don't send me to the police! I don't want to go to jail! I'm afraid!" She raised her head, her face covered with tears.

The small face in front of her eyes and Cen Meng's small face overlapped together, and the depressive thoughts surged up, Tao Jiaran felt a pain in her heart.

The child was still holding her leg, crying and begging, and the sound of footsteps could be faintly heard in the distance.Tao Jiaran gently pushed her away, and took out 200 yuan from his pocket, "Go and buy some food. I will do some business in the future." After speaking, he turned his head and left, as if thinking of something, "Stay here Come out in 10 minutes!"

The child was holding two red tickets, staring blankly at her back, walking further and further away.
