Omega who wants to steal cubs every day
Chapter 17
"I'm Lu Jincheng, and I've been friends with Zhiyi since childhood."
"Hi, my name is Zhou Huaisheng."
"Zhiyi told me about it. I mainly came to see the child today."
Zhou Huaisheng seemed even more embarrassed. He didn't expect Lin Zhiyi to tell others about it. He thought Lin Zhiyi didn't want anyone to know that he had a child.
Lu Jincheng looked Zhou Huaisheng up and down, and then went back to remove the toy from the car. Zhou Huaisheng quickly pushed back: "Mr. Lu, this is too expensive."
Lin Zhiyi untied the straps on Zhou Huaisheng's body, took the scroll and hugged it in his arms, breaking the anxious atmosphere, "The whole commercial building belongs to his family, just accept it."
Zhou Huaisheng's expression was still very difficult, Lu Jincheng smiled, "Yeah, I didn't spend any money, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Mr. Lu, if you don't mind, let's go upstairs and have dinner together." Zhou Huaisheng put the gloves in the box and took out the vegetables and ribs.
Lu Jincheng originally wanted to go to the restaurant to eat, but when he saw Lin Zhiyi standing under the stairs with the child in his arms, looking anxious to go home, he had to apologize to Zhou Huaisheng: "Then I will bother you."
Zhou Huaisheng turned sideways to let Lu Jincheng go first, "No, you are being polite."
The corridor was very dark, and Lu Jincheng didn't see the appearance of the scroll until Zhou Huaisheng's house. He was stunned, and said in surprise: "Zhiyi, he and you were born in the same mold when they were young, and they were all natural curls. Too cute, no, cuter than when you were a child."
Hearing that someone praised Juanjuan, Lin Zhiyi was quite proud, but Juanjuan didn't know, so he put his arms around Lin Zhiyi's neck and whispered, "Uncle, I have biscuits."
He unzipped the down jacket, took out half a bag of biscuits from the small pocket in front of the overalls, and brought it to Lin Zhiyi, who put him on his lap, took the biscuits, and said, "Thank you Jujuan. "
Lu Jincheng stood aside, glanced at Zhou Huaisheng in the kitchen, and asked Lin Zhiyi in a low voice, "Why haven't you changed your name yet?"
Lin Zhiyi was slightly startled, "In a few days, I haven't figured out how to tell the child yet."
Lu Jincheng nodded, and asked again: "The nickname is Juanjuan, what's the big name?"
Zhou Huaisheng just came out, and upon hearing Lu Jincheng's words, he replied, "Zhou Zhimeng, my hometown is at the foot of Yanmeng Mountain, so that's why I named it."
Lu Jincheng glanced at Lin Zhiyi, saw that the latter was in a trance, and leaned over to tease Juanjuan. Juanjuan was a little afraid of this strange uncle, buried his face in Lin Zhiyi's neck, and hugged him like a little koala. Lin Zhiyi.
Lin Zhiyi unbuttoned his coat and wrapped the little guy in his arms.
Seeing Zhou Huaisheng enter the kitchen, Lu Jincheng smiled and asked Lin Zhiyi: "Meng is Meng from Yanmeng Mountain, what do you know?"
Lin Zhiyi turned his face away and did not speak.
Lu Jincheng looked around at Zhou Huaisheng's house, the phone rang, he stood in the living room to answer it, it was something related to work, Lin Zhiyi was not interested, he walked to the small kitchen with the scroll in his arms, Zhou Huaisheng was cooking Ribs.
"What are you going to do? Sweet and sour pork ribs or rib soup?" Lin Zhiyi asked.
"Sweet and sour." Zhou Huaisheng turned off the fire, turned around and asked Lin Zhiyi, "Does Mr. Lu have any taboos?"
Lin Zhiyi frowned, "How do I know? I'll ask him."
Zhou Huaisheng's hand holding the spatula suddenly relaxed.
Half a minute later, Lin Zhiyi walked in again and said, "No."
Zhou Huaisheng continued to cook.
It was only then that Lin Zhiyi noticed that Zhou Huaisheng was wearing the jacket he bought today. The black and white contrast style made Zhou Huaisheng, who was normally dull, look much younger. He was wearing a pair of thick straight-leg black trousers underneath. Not in style.
"Why don't you wear knee pads? Don't you have arthritis?"
Zhou Huaisheng said while chopping vegetables, "It's not convenient to walk, so I picked them."
Lin Zhiyi didn't know why he had to ask this extra question, so he let out an "oh" in a self-defeating way.
He went out to turn on the heater, and spread the floor mat in the living room, Lu Jincheng hung up the phone, put the newly bought toy on it, curled it up against Lin Zhiyi, looked at Lu Jincheng timidly, and said, "Thank you uncle. "
Lu Jincheng took the toy out of the box and put it in front of Juan, "You're welcome, as long as Juan likes it."
Within a few minutes, the living room was filled with toys.
It was the first time for Juanjuan to play with a remote-controlled toy car. He ran to the kitchen excitedly, tiptoed and put the remote control into Zhou Huaisheng's hand. Zhou Huaisheng said, "Dad is going to cook, so Juanjuan can go and play."
Juanjuan said anxiously, "Dad, let's play."
Zhou Huaisheng stared at the dishes in the pot, pretending not to hear the laughter in the living room, but Juanjuan still looked at him eagerly, holding up his small hands, eager to share the joy with him, Zhou Huaisheng could only put away his emotions, he Turned on a small fire, wiped his hands with a cloth, took the remote control and walked to the kitchen door.
"Dad, push this."
Zhou Huaisheng pushed the lever at the request of Juan Juan, and the red car swished from the floor mat all the way to under the dining table, and Juan Juan raised his head and smiled at Zhou Huaisheng.
Zhou Huaisheng forced himself not to look at the two people sitting in the living room.
Before meeting Lin Zhiyi again, he always felt that he took good care of Juanjuan. Although his life was a bit poor, he worked hard and never made Juanjuan go hungry. Most of the friends around him were the same as him. Similarly, he saved money by saving food and money, but looking at Juan Juan's smile at this moment, Zhou Huaisheng suddenly realized that his life was so tight and embarrassing.
Juanjuan is very sensible, but a two-year-old child should not be so sensible. Maybe Juanjuan can live a better life and have a better life by following Lin Zhiyi.
This thought flashed by, Zhou Huaisheng didn't dare to think about it again, he returned the remote control to Juan Juan, smiled at Juan Juan, and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Lin Zhiyi looked at the smile on Zhou Huaisheng's face, his mood suddenly sank for some reason, and he sat back in his arms, Lin Zhiyi hugged the little guy, his mind was full of Zhou Huaisheng's turning around just now.
A burst of irritability rose from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't explain clearly.
Zhou Huaisheng did things very neatly. In less than half an hour, he prepared three dishes and one soup, put them on the table, took the chopsticks and the bowl, and said to Lu Jincheng who came over: "It's just a common meal, just kidding."
Lu Jincheng sat down, took the chopsticks, and praised: "How come? It looks delicious."
Lu Jincheng eats a lot of Western food on weekdays, but he was still amazed by Zhou Huaisheng's cooking skills, "This level can definitely be a chef."
Lin Zhiyi thought of Zhou Huaisheng's job in the cafeteria of the elderly care community. He put the ribs in the roll bowl and said, "I also think you can work in a restaurant."
Zhou Huaisheng kept his composure, and said after a while: "I can't take my children to the restaurant, and the food delivery is pretty good. It's a bit hard in winter, but fortunately, I can manage my time by myself."
Lu Jincheng glanced at Lin Zhiyi, and continued to say to Zhou Huaisheng: "My impression is that Yanmeng Mountain is on the other side of Yanping, and it is quite far from Wangcheng. It must be more than 1000 kilometers."
"Yes."
"The price level in Wangcheng is quite high in comparison. In fact, if you go back to Yanping, the economic pressure will not be so great. Why don't you think about going back?"
"The child's health is not good, and the medical level in my hometown is not as high as that in big cities. I have no choice but to stay here."
"That's right, yes, big cities have the benefits of big cities, especially in terms of medical care and education."
"Yes."
Lin Zhiyi noticed that Zhou Huaisheng didn't eat a single rib. Ever since Lu Jincheng asked, Zhou Huaisheng hadn't moved his chopsticks on the dish, and just ate rice. Lin Zhiyi suddenly said, "The ribs are a bit salty."
Zhou Huaisheng immediately raised his head, picked up a piece of pork ribs and tasted a couple of bites, "Is it salty? I tasted it and it was fine."
Lu Jincheng also said: "It's not salty, how can sweet and sour pork ribs be salty?"
Lin Zhiyi chewed a few times, "Oh, I don't know, maybe the taste buds are wrong, and it tastes just right now."
Zhou Huaisheng felt relieved.
In front of Juanjuan, none of the three mentioned the custody issue. After dinner, Lu Jincheng was about to leave, and Lin Zhiyi sent him downstairs.
"You live here at night?" Lu Jincheng asked.
Lin Zhiyi coughed twice, "No, I'll go back with Juanjuan in a while."
"When are you going to take the roll away?"
"Wait a little longer. After all, he has raised the child for two years. I can't just take it away. I have to think of a comprehensive way."
Lu Jincheng said with a smile, "It's pretty good looking."
"What?"
"Look like a mother."
Lin Zhiyi immediately felt uncomfortable, "Don't make fun of me."
"What do you think of Zhou Huaisheng now?"
Lin Zhiyi's eyes narrowed, and he said decisively, "I have no idea."
"Really?" Lu Jincheng walked towards the parking spot, "Actually, I wanted to help you out today and help you win custody. The lawyers have already contacted you. You just heard the news, and you probably have a mess in your head. But this kind of matter involving children can't be delayed, I saw that you were very entangled, so I thought of coming over to help you, but when I saw Zhou Huaisheng, I understood why you were entangled."
"why?"
"Because he really doesn't look like a bad guy."
Lin Zhiyi was poked into his mind, and silently looked at the figure under the street lamp.
"At first glance, he is an honest man with a hard background. Although his family is poor, he is well-kept. He behaves well in what he says and does. He has also taught him to be sensible and polite. To be honest, I don't really believe he can do that. I don't dare to make a conclusion about breaking the law, but I know people and face but don't know the heart."
"... He admitted it himself."
"You should confirm it. Have you investigated his family situation? After you fell from Yanmeng Mountain until you were discovered by your father at the hospital gate, what did you and Zhou Huaisheng go through during such a long time? Go and investigate, you can't just listen to his side and make an impulsive decision, after all, children are involved."
Lin Zhiyi looked to the second floor, the lights were on.
"I feel that you are very dependent on him, or you are instinctively close to him."
"Impossible." Lin Zhiyi retorted immediately.
Lu Jincheng took a step in Lin Zhiyi's direction, and the distance between the two shortened instantly. Lin Zhiyi retreated reflexively, with a serious expression: "Brother Jincheng, what are you doing?"
"You see, when I approached you, you reacted like this, but in front of him, you showed a very relaxed state, and didn't you have anorexia since childhood? At my dad's birthday banquet last month You didn't take a bite, I remember it very clearly."
Lin Zhiyi's breathing became short of breath, he wanted to be thrown under the spotlight, and all his secrets were exposed.
"I don't like him, how could I like him?" Lin Zhiyi almost yelled.
"I didn't say you liked him."
Lin Zhiyi was still stubborn, "It's just because, because of Juan, I gave birth to Juan, and he is Juan's father, so I naturally depend on him for pheromones, so—"
"He is beta, where did the pheromone come from?"
Lin Zhiyi froze all over.
"I'm not saying that you like him. I'm worried that your complicated feelings for him will affect many of your judgments. You still have to figure out the cause and effect of the matter. Do you understand what I mean?"
"My dad has wiped out everything that happened back then. The police and the people in the hospital. In the past two years, I have thought of various ways to coerce and lure me, but no one has told me the truth."
"Then start with Zhou Huaisheng. During the time you were together, it was impossible to hide from the world and live in seclusion. You must have contact with people, right?"
Lin Zhiyi suddenly realized, "Yes, why didn't I think of it?"
"You've been too tired these two days. Look at your dark circles and take a good rest. When you recover, you'll be able to handle things well. I believe in you."
"Thank you, Brother Jincheng."
Lu Jincheng patted Lin Zhiyi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I promised Aunt Gu to protect you."
"That's what I said when I was playing games when I was a child."
"Time flies, you are still a child in my eyes, and now you have children of your own," Lu Jincheng walked around to the driver's door and said, "I'm leaving first, remember to find me if you need anything."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Lin Zhiyi stood alone under the street lamp for a long time, and he didn't go back until the cold wind poured into his collar. Zhou Huaisheng was packing up the toys on the ground. Lu Jincheng bought too many, which took up a quarter of the living room. Zhou Huaisheng put the toys back into the packaging The boxes are then stacked together according to size, and Juanjuan is beside him to help.
Juanjuan heard the door ring, saw Lin Zhiyi walking in, ran towards Lin Zhiyi in surprise, hugged Lin Zhiyi's leg, raised his head and said aggrievedly: "Uncle, I thought you went home."
Lin Zhiyi couldn't call himself uncle anymore, but he couldn't replace it with anything else for a while, so he could only say: "I haven't said goodbye to Juanjuan yet, how could I go home?"
Juanjuan grinned, and he held Lin Zhiyi's hand firmly, reluctant to let go.
Lin Zhiyi brought over a long-unused tablet computer that he left in the office today. Zhou Huaisheng didn’t have a TV at home, and the screen of his mobile phone was too small. Lin Zhiyi planned to use the tablet computer to play cartoons for Juanjuan.
He sat beside the bed with Juanjuan in his arms. Juanjuan was attracted by the dazzling cartoons. He chose a cartoon he had watched at Grandma Wang’s house. Shan, come back after nine o'clock."
Lin Zhiyi frowned, turned on the phone and checked the weather, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's going to cool down at night, and it's already zero outside now."
"It's okay, I don't have a scroll, I move faster, and I won't be cold when I run."
"In this way, I will pay you how many orders you can take at night and how much money you earn, okay?"
"No," Zhou Huaisheng rubbed the corner of his clothes awkwardly, and said helplessly, "The main thing is that I have nothing to do at home."
Lin Zhiyi was so angry that he lowered his head and didn't want to talk to anyone, "It's up to you."
Zhou Huaisheng looked at the two people on the bed, then closed the bedroom door and left. Lin Zhiyi heard the sound of the door and suddenly remembered something. He walked out of the bedroom and rummaged through the simple shoe cabinet at the door. Sure enough, a pair of straps broke. He rushed out the door and called Zhou Huaisheng to stop him. Zhou Huaisheng had already reached the first floor, and when he heard the voice, he hurried up, "What's wrong?"
Lin Zhiyi held the knee pads and threatened Zhou Huaisheng: "Now, go and buy a pair of knee pads. After buying and wearing them, you are only allowed to deliver food. After I come back, I will check your payment voucher. There must be a transfer record for the transfer, and a photo must be taken for the cash payment." , if you don’t buy it, I’ll take the volume away tonight.”
Zhou Huaisheng didn't speak for a long time. He looked at Lin Zhiyi with deep eyes. There was a lot of hesitation hidden in his eyes. Lin Zhiyi regretted showing his concern so bluntly. He pouted and said in a cold voice, "I just don't want to Both of your legs are sick, and Juanjuan will take care of you in the future."
"Got it, I'll go buy it now." Zhou Huaisheng looked at Lin Zhiyi and said.
Lin Zhiyi heard a hint of joy from Zhou Huaisheng's voice, he put the old knee pads into Zhou Huaisheng's hands, and closed the door with a stern face.
When it was almost nine o'clock, Lin Zhiyi hugged Juanjuan after washing, sat on the side of the bed, and asked, "Why hasn't Dad come back?"
"Should be back soon."
Lin Zhiyi came out of the shower and wiped his hair. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhou Huaisheng's sleeping mat and quilt in the closet. He put down the towel, took out the mat and spread it on the floor, then put the quilt on it, and curled up on his stomach. The quilt asked, "Can Daddy sleep in the bed with us?"
"No!" Lin Zhiyi was taken aback.
Juanjuan was a little sad, and pulled the quilt away with two small hands. Lin Zhiyi helped him spread the quilt, and comforted him: "I mean, the bed is too small to sleep three people."
Juanjuan was still very sad, and got under the quilt and didn't speak. Lin Zhiyi patted Juanjuan's little butt through the quilt, "Then I'll sleep on the floor, and your father will sleep with you, okay?"
Juanjuan quickly crawled out, got into Lin Zhiyi's arms, shook his head and said, "Juanjuan wants to be with uncle."
Lin Zhiyi was satisfied with this.
After Zhou Huaisheng came back, he went to the bathroom to wash up first. Hearing the sound, Lin Zhiyi picked up his phone and tapped it casually to show that he was still awake.
Zhou Huaisheng came in lightly. Before entering the bed, he leaned over and showed Lin Zhiyi the transfer record on his mobile phone. Lin Zhiyi glanced at it and said it was approved.
Before going to sleep, Lin Zhiyi thought of another thing. Lu Jincheng asked him to find the truth from Zhou Huaisheng, but Zhou Huaisheng was very strict and refused to say anything. Are there other clues?
By the way, the note in the tin box.
Lin Zhiyi suddenly lost all sleepiness. He got out of bed, walked to the living room, opened the iron box, and was about to turn to the third page when Zhou Huaisheng came from behind and held Lin Zhiyi's hand.
"Mr. Lin, the past is all over."
Lin Zhiyi didn't feel guilty about stealing at all. He turned around and got very close to Zhou Huaisheng. He asked, "Did I write this?"
"……Yes."
"Why can't I read what I wrote?" Lin Zhiyi snorted and hugged the box, "Now the property is returned to the original owner, and you have nothing to do with it."
He returned to the room proudly with the box in his arms, put the box on the window sill, and continued to sleep with Jujuu in his arms.
He was very relieved, he knew that Zhou Huaisheng would not get up in the middle of the night to take the box, there was no reason, he just knew.
"Hi, my name is Zhou Huaisheng."
"Zhiyi told me about it. I mainly came to see the child today."
Zhou Huaisheng seemed even more embarrassed. He didn't expect Lin Zhiyi to tell others about it. He thought Lin Zhiyi didn't want anyone to know that he had a child.
Lu Jincheng looked Zhou Huaisheng up and down, and then went back to remove the toy from the car. Zhou Huaisheng quickly pushed back: "Mr. Lu, this is too expensive."
Lin Zhiyi untied the straps on Zhou Huaisheng's body, took the scroll and hugged it in his arms, breaking the anxious atmosphere, "The whole commercial building belongs to his family, just accept it."
Zhou Huaisheng's expression was still very difficult, Lu Jincheng smiled, "Yeah, I didn't spend any money, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Mr. Lu, if you don't mind, let's go upstairs and have dinner together." Zhou Huaisheng put the gloves in the box and took out the vegetables and ribs.
Lu Jincheng originally wanted to go to the restaurant to eat, but when he saw Lin Zhiyi standing under the stairs with the child in his arms, looking anxious to go home, he had to apologize to Zhou Huaisheng: "Then I will bother you."
Zhou Huaisheng turned sideways to let Lu Jincheng go first, "No, you are being polite."

He unzipped the down jacket, took out half a bag of biscuits from the small pocket in front of the overalls, and brought it to Lin Zhiyi, who put him on his lap, took the biscuits, and said, "Thank you Jujuan. "

"What are you going to do? Sweet and sour pork ribs or rib soup?" Lin Zhiyi asked.
"Sweet and sour." Zhou Huaisheng turned off the fire, turned around and asked Lin Zhiyi, "Does Mr. Lu have any taboos?"
Lin Zhiyi frowned, "How do I know? I'll ask him."
Zhou Huaisheng's hand holding the spatula suddenly relaxed.
Half a minute later, Lin Zhiyi walked in again and said, "No."
Zhou Huaisheng continued to cook.
It was only then that Lin Zhiyi noticed that Zhou Huaisheng was wearing the jacket he bought today. The black and white contrast style made Zhou Huaisheng, who was normally dull, look much younger. He was wearing a pair of thick straight-leg black trousers underneath. Not in style.

It was the first time for Juanjuan to play with a remote-controlled toy car. He ran to the kitchen excitedly, tiptoed and put the remote control into Zhou Huaisheng's hand. Zhou Huaisheng said, "Dad is going to cook, so Juanjuan can go and play."
Juanjuan said anxiously, "Dad, let's play."

"I'm not saying that you like him. I'm worried that your complicated feelings for him will affect many of your judgments. You still have to figure out the cause and effect of the matter. Do you understand what I mean?"
"My dad has wiped out everything that happened back then. The police and the people in the hospital. In the past two years, I have thought of various ways to coerce and lure me, but no one has told me the truth."
"Then start with Zhou Huaisheng. During the time you were together, it was impossible to hide from the world and live in seclusion. You must have contact with people, right?"
Lin Zhiyi suddenly realized, "Yes, why didn't I think of it?"
"You've been too tired these two days. Look at your dark circles and take a good rest. When you recover, you'll be able to handle things well. I believe in you."
"Thank you, Brother Jincheng."
Lu Jincheng patted Lin Zhiyi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I promised Aunt Gu to protect you."
"That's what I said when I was playing games when I was a child."
"Time flies, you are still a child in my eyes, and now you have children of your own," Lu Jincheng walked around to the driver's door and said, "I'm leaving first, remember to find me if you need anything."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Lin Zhiyi stood alone under the street lamp for a long time, and he didn't go back until the cold wind poured into his collar. Zhou Huaisheng was packing up the toys on the ground. Lu Jincheng bought too many, which took up a quarter of the living room. Zhou Huaisheng put the toys back into the packaging The boxes are then stacked together according to size, and Juanjuan is beside him to help.
Juanjuan heard the door ring, saw Lin Zhiyi walking in, ran towards Lin Zhiyi in surprise, hugged Lin Zhiyi's leg, raised his head and said aggrievedly: "Uncle, I thought you went home."
Lin Zhiyi couldn't call himself uncle anymore, but he couldn't replace it with anything else for a while, so he could only say: "I haven't said goodbye to Juanjuan yet, how could I go home?"
Juanjuan grinned, and he held Lin Zhiyi's hand firmly, reluctant to let go.
Lin Zhiyi brought over a long-unused tablet computer that he left in the office today. Zhou Huaisheng didn’t have a TV at home, and the screen of his mobile phone was too small. Lin Zhiyi planned to use the tablet computer to play cartoons for Juanjuan.
He sat beside the bed with Juanjuan in his arms. Juanjuan was attracted by the dazzling cartoons. He chose a cartoon he had watched at Grandma Wang’s house. Shan, come back after nine o'clock."
Lin Zhiyi frowned, turned on the phone and checked the weather, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's going to cool down at night, and it's already zero outside now."
"It's okay, I don't have a scroll, I move faster, and I won't be cold when I run."
"In this way, I will pay you how many orders you can take at night and how much money you earn, okay?"
"No," Zhou Huaisheng rubbed the corner of his clothes awkwardly, and said helplessly, "The main thing is that I have nothing to do at home."
Lin Zhiyi was so angry that he lowered his head and didn't want to talk to anyone, "It's up to you."
Zhou Huaisheng looked at the two people on the bed, then closed the bedroom door and left. Lin Zhiyi heard the sound of the door and suddenly remembered something. He walked out of the bedroom and rummaged through the simple shoe cabinet at the door. Sure enough, a pair of straps broke. He rushed out the door and called Zhou Huaisheng to stop him. Zhou Huaisheng had already reached the first floor, and when he heard the voice, he hurried up, "What's wrong?"
Lin Zhiyi held the knee pads and threatened Zhou Huaisheng: "Now, go and buy a pair of knee pads. After buying and wearing them, you are only allowed to deliver food. After I come back, I will check your payment voucher. There must be a transfer record for the transfer, and a photo must be taken for the cash payment." , if you don’t buy it, I’ll take the volume away tonight.”
Zhou Huaisheng didn't speak for a long time. He looked at Lin Zhiyi with deep eyes. There was a lot of hesitation hidden in his eyes. Lin Zhiyi regretted showing his concern so bluntly. He pouted and said in a cold voice, "I just don't want to Both of your legs are sick, and Juanjuan will take care of you in the future."
"Got it, I'll go buy it now." Zhou Huaisheng looked at Lin Zhiyi and said.
Lin Zhiyi heard a hint of joy from Zhou Huaisheng's voice, he put the old knee pads into Zhou Huaisheng's hands, and closed the door with a stern face.
When it was almost nine o'clock, Lin Zhiyi hugged Juanjuan after washing, sat on the side of the bed, and asked, "Why hasn't Dad come back?"
"Should be back soon."
Lin Zhiyi came out of the shower and wiped his hair. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhou Huaisheng's sleeping mat and quilt in the closet. He put down the towel, took out the mat and spread it on the floor, then put the quilt on it, and curled up on his stomach. The quilt asked, "Can Daddy sleep in the bed with us?"
"No!" Lin Zhiyi was taken aback.
Juanjuan was a little sad, and pulled the quilt away with two small hands. Lin Zhiyi helped him spread the quilt, and comforted him: "I mean, the bed is too small to sleep three people."
Juanjuan was still very sad, and got under the quilt and didn't speak. Lin Zhiyi patted Juanjuan's little butt through the quilt, "Then I'll sleep on the floor, and your father will sleep with you, okay?"
Juanjuan quickly crawled out, got into Lin Zhiyi's arms, shook his head and said, "Juanjuan wants to be with uncle."
Lin Zhiyi was satisfied with this.
After Zhou Huaisheng came back, he went to the bathroom to wash up first. Hearing the sound, Lin Zhiyi picked up his phone and tapped it casually to show that he was still awake.
Zhou Huaisheng came in lightly. Before entering the bed, he leaned over and showed Lin Zhiyi the transfer record on his mobile phone. Lin Zhiyi glanced at it and said it was approved.
Before going to sleep, Lin Zhiyi thought of another thing. Lu Jincheng asked him to find the truth from Zhou Huaisheng, but Zhou Huaisheng was very strict and refused to say anything. Are there other clues?
By the way, the note in the tin box.
Lin Zhiyi suddenly lost all sleepiness. He got out of bed, walked to the living room, opened the iron box, and was about to turn to the third page when Zhou Huaisheng came from behind and held Lin Zhiyi's hand.
"Mr. Lin, the past is all over."
Lin Zhiyi didn't feel guilty about stealing at all. He turned around and got very close to Zhou Huaisheng. He asked, "Did I write this?"
"……Yes."
"Why can't I read what I wrote?" Lin Zhiyi snorted and hugged the box, "Now the property is returned to the original owner, and you have nothing to do with it."
He returned to the room proudly with the box in his arms, put the box on the window sill, and continued to sleep with Jujuu in his arms.
He was very relieved, he knew that Zhou Huaisheng would not get up in the middle of the night to take the box, there was no reason, he just knew.
