After getting on with the enemy

The difference during that time was different from the past, and there were many large and small episodes happening one after another. The trend of City S was comparable to the current weather of City A. Sometimes it was cloudy, sometimes sunny, sometimes light rain and cold waves alternated, and the sky was often dark. A vast expanse, dull as gray tulle.

Because of the daily calls or video calls, Zhou Xiyun would not hide major issues from Qiao Yan. Qiao Yan was not particularly worried, nor was he overly anxious about the situation.

The two started playing video for half an hour, but Zhou Xiyun was concerned about Qiao Yan here, worried that it would be unsafe for her to live alone, and also worried that someone who slipped through the net would find her.

After Qiao Yan, he was the key witness in the whole case. If something happened to him, he would be worried.

Boss Qiao was also very careful about this, and said softly on the phone: "Don't think about it, it's nothing."

Qiao Yan now even takes precautions when she goes out to look at the store. In fact, she is more careful about her own safety, and the police are also reliable, and they are taking corresponding measures to protect her. Girlfriend Zhou's worries are purely unnecessary.

The current world is not the era when information is not developed. Criminals dare to be as crazy as those in Hong Kong police movies. They are all more timid than quails and save their lives. In the last step, after receiving the wind, it was too late to run around, and no one would dare to run into him to seek his own death.

In the past few days, the police also asked Qiao Yan to question him alone. Due to the Huayi Technology incident, Qiao Yan had to fully cooperate with the investigation under the advice of his lawyer. He had to truthfully inform the police of everything he had participated in and knew. So that the police in city A can jointly collect evidence with the police in city S more smoothly and efficiently.

Qiao Yan doesn't understand the twists and turns, anyway, everything is safe and orderly, just do your best.

The lawyer told them that Qiao Yan will definitely be fine in the end, as long as things go well enough, she can retire with Zhou Xiyun and the others when the dust settles, and the follow-up should not be affected in any way.

Qiao Yan recounted the lawyer's original words to Zhou Xiyun to reassure his girlfriend, and then asked Zhou Xiyun if he would be back soon, and how Zhou Huiwen was doing.

Everything is fine in City S, Zhou Xiyun said, "I'll go back and look for you the night after tomorrow."

Qiao Yan smiled, eyebrows and eyes curved: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

The two of you are talking about each other on the screen of your mobile phone, so you can't get close through the network cable, otherwise you will have to stick together endlessly.

Girlfriend Zhou was completely satisfied with it, not only agreed to bring it, but also reported the names of some other things, asked Qiao Yan which one he liked, and said that he would bring them back together at that time.

Qiao Yan didn't hesitate, he wanted whatever was offered, and if the choice was difficult, he would ask for it all, and he wouldn't be polite.

The two of them have really worn a pair of trousers since they were young. They know everything about each other, and it's not that they don't know each other. Is aunt coming back?"

"No." Zhou Xiyun said, "She has something to do, but she's not free. Maybe she won't be until the end of the year."

"I thought she would come back with you," Qiao Yan said. "Since you are free, Aunt Zhou should be too."

Zhou Xiyun said bluntly, "I'm not free either."

Qiao Yan blinked, "Huh?"

Zhou Xiyun opened his mouth and said, "But I've been away for too long, I'll go back and see you." It was very straightforward, not tactful at all.

What he said... really doesn't fit this person's personality, it's like a love story.

But Qiao Yan was very useful when he heard it, and he was so beautiful immediately that his tail almost curled up.Girlfriends are usually not like this, when did they come in, it sounds so good, only during this period can they be treated like this.Qiao Yan leisurely turned over from his paralyzed state, and asked shamelessly, "Did you miss me?"

Zhou Xiyun also admitted: "Yes."

Someone itched to sing the opposite, "The quality is too bad, I haven't been out for half a month, and I still haven't thought about you, I haven't reacted yet."

The girlfriend didn't mind and replied: "It's okay, Boss Qiao doesn't need to be so particular."

"That's so embarrassing..." Qiao Yan apologized.

Zhou Xiyun also curled his lips at the other end, feeling helpless and funny being teased by these two idiots, there was really nothing he could do.

The intrigue in the business field is very bitter, but it is not like this on the phone. Qiao Yan is usually careless and always likes to tease Zhou Xiyun. People who are far away from each other will make fun of each other, and create some fun if they are not having fun.

—The phone call didn't hang up until midnight. In the end, Qiao Yan was too tired. He worked hard during the day, and fell asleep halfway through his first frequency at night. He even struggled to press the hang-up button.

The video was posted by Zhou Xiyun. The other party noticed that Qiao Yan was yawning profusely early in the morning. He knew that he was sleepy, so he lowered his voice and whispered softly after Qiao Yan closed his eyes. After a while, not talking anymore.Zhou Xiyun was a little helpless, and wanted to remind Qiao Yan to cover the quilt, but the camera was blocked by Qiao Yan's hair, so he couldn't see what was going on in the room, and had no way of knowing how Qiao Yan was sleeping. Qiao Yan hung up the video after he was really asleep.

As soon as Qiao Yan fell asleep, he saw daybreak, and it was cold in the middle, so he unconsciously got under the quilt, wrapped himself up like a rice dumpling, and his sleeping appearance was dishonest. Get out of bed.

It's cold in winter, and after sleeping like this for a long time, I don't know when it will be warmer.She shrank into a ball, her posture was like a boiled and shrinking shrimp, and she subconsciously burrowed into the bed.

Thanks to luck this time, unlike Xia Tian, ​​Qiao Yan didn't catch a cold that night. Apart from the cold, there was nothing else.

When he called again the next day, Zhou Xiyun asked. Qiao Yan's voice was a little hoarse, but everything else was fine.

On this day, the night before Zhou Xiyun came back, Qiao Yan couldn't help but ran home after dark, sneaking over to see what was going on.All the progress is relatively satisfactory, so it is inevitable that I will be a little homesick, thinking that I will not come back until the matter is completely settled, but I can't let it go.Qiao Yan didn't bring anything this time, and he didn't drive the car. He took a taxi back and walked to the door in the dark.

The broken street lamp has been repaired, and it is bright all the way from the alley to the small bamboo forest.

Only grandma was in the courtyard that night. Xu Ziqing was away on a short business trip and was not in the house. He would not come back until the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.When Qiao Yan entered the door, grandma was holding the food and preparing to serve it on the table by herself. She was swaying and moving very slowly.

The old man didn't know anything about what happened outside, and Zhou Huiwen and the others didn't tell her about it. Grandma thought that the two young people were still fighting with the family for coming out of the closet. Seeing Qiao Yan's sudden appearance, she thought it was because of her old eyesight and hallucinations It wasn't until Qiao Yan yelled and went to help with the dishes, that the old man realized that she really came back.

Qiao Yan turned around and put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and hugged grandma firmly with open arms, barely lifting the old man by the waist.Grandma is getting old, her body is light-boned, and she has shrunk to the height of Qiao Yan's shoulders. Suddenly, she was strangled so passionately that she almost couldn't breathe.

Qiao Yan, no matter how big or small, raised his hand and patted the top of grandma's head, and said with a shy face, "Grandma, I'm here to catch dinner. Where is my mother?"

The old man was so angry that he didn't feel any surprise or emotion yet, and the next moment he wanted to clean up this out-of-shape thing.

The eldest girl is "ignorant" and hasn't been home for more than three months, thinking about eating as soon as she enters the door.

Qiao Yan let go of his strength and let his grandma teach him a lesson.

Grandma pretended to grab the crutches and pat her twice, but she didn't use any force, just pretended to hit her.The old man was sentimental, obviously not doing well, but his eyes turned red in the next moment, and tears fell straight down.

They were not so excited the day they drove Qiao Yan out, but seeing Qiao Yan come back now, they were more sad than ever.

The old man is getting old and can't bear this kind of long-term separation. Driving them away that day was a temporary solution. He was worried that it would not end if it went on like this, so he also protected Qiao Yan in disguise, fearing that Xu Ziqing would get angry. In order to break this disappointing leg, he hurriedly drove them away in a fake manner.But who would have guessed that the stalemate would not end later, the two mothers had no intention of letting the daughters come back, and the grandmother actually regretted it, thinking that it would be fine if Xu Ziqing beat Qiao Yan at that time, and let the mother vent her anger, maybe the two A young man will not even be unable to return home.

Seeing grandma crying sadly, Qiao Yan seemed to have done something wrong, at a loss, he grabbed his sleeve and wiped it. "Don't cry, don't cry, grandma, why are you crying? What's wrong with you?"

Grandma got angry and hit her twice.Very sad, I can't comfort you.

Qiao Yan persuaded and comforted the old man with a few words, hugged the old man and patted the back, and said: "Oh, it's okay, I'm back, I'm back, and I won't leave in the future. It's all my fault, I'm wrong, you Don't be sad, I won't dare again."

Grandma scolded her in dialect, saying that she was ambitious and disobedient when she grew up, and that she didn't come in when she passed by the door before, and she didn't treat this place as her home.

Grandma has a stubborn temper, loves to talk irony, and reverses everything. In fact, she loves the child.

Qiao Yan smiled when he heard that, and let him be scolded, coaxing the old and the children coaxing grandma, and the other party didn't object to anything he said.

The old man is the most protective of her. She has been a rare treasure since she was a child, and she has been doting on her all the time. Otherwise, according to Qiao Yan's level of toughness when she was a child, Xu Ziqing would have beaten Qiao Yan to the ground if she wasn't backed by her grandma.It's just that the old man doesn't behave well in daily life. At first glance, he doesn't seem to be doing well, and it's only at this time that he shows it.

The meeting between grandparents and grandchildren was still warm overall. Qiao Yan ate with grandma, and then cleaned up the table and washed the dishes. After washing, he cut a plate of fruit and served it to grandma while watching the drama.

Xu was afraid that Qiao Yan would run away again, so grandma took advantage of her efforts to close and lock the door while she was washing the dishes, and pushed the bench against it.

Grandma was duplicity, turned around and saw Qiao Yan looked over in confusion, and explained seriously: "Your mother is not in the house, and there are thieves at night, so close it early to avoid being watched by someone."

Qiao Yan said nonchalantly, "It's still early, it's not long after dark, and thieves won't come out at this time, and I'm not still here, so don't worry."

Grandma leaned on crutches and sat down in front of the TV, and said earnestly and earnestly: "If you don't gain something, you will suffer in the future."

Qiao Yan didn't refute, but nodded, leaving the old man alone.She didn't intend to leave when she came back tonight, and she would definitely stay if she didn't get kicked out.

Grandma was very satisfied, and she was in a good mood all night.

The grandfather and grandson didn't talk about those insignificant things, they had their own considerations, so they agreed not to mention them.

After returning to the upstairs room, Qiao Yan and Zhou Xiyun talked about this, let's talk about it.Zhou Xiyun supported Qiao Yan and thought it would be okay to go back here. Qiao Yan didn't have to worry about Huayi Technology's incidents affecting his family.If it had an impact, it would have affected Xu Ziqing and grandma a long time ago. If nothing happens now, nothing will happen in the future, but the two elders may not be able to accept Qiao Yan's risk-taking approach.

Of course, Qiao Yan didn't mention this, and told Zhou Xiyun not to mention it.

Zhou Xiyun agreed.This person also had a heart, and brought back a gift for the Qiao family, and he could deliver it directly tomorrow.

As the end of the year approaches, the atmosphere of fireworks in Xijing Courtyard is stronger and more charming than that in Wangjiang Jiayuan.There are not only red lanterns hanging on the streets here, couplets are pasted on the door of every house, rows of sausages and bacon are hung in and out of the courtyard, and there is a faintly seductive aroma in the air.

The sausages and bacon in the courtyard are not smoked with firewood, and they are not kept in the refrigerator. They are all air-dried and stored until they are eaten during the Chinese New Year.The preserved meat of Qiao’s family is all made by grandma herself. Grandma has made more this year. I know they like it. Prepared, as if you can't see it.

Xu Ziqing naturally knew that her daughter was back today, and even more so that Zhou Xiyun would also come the next day: the living room at home was monitored by the Internet, and it was Qiao Yan who used to take care of grandma's safety, so she could see the situation there from her mobile phone.

And grandma also informed Ms. Xu, and ordered Xu Ziqing not to drive Qiao Yan out again, otherwise she would move out of this house in the future and leave together so as not to hinder Xu Ziqing's eyes.

So far, Ms. Xu has ignored the Zhou family's side. She was reluctant to part with it, so she turned a blind eye at this time.

Qiao Yan and the two of them spent the night with grandma together, trying to coax the old man to feel very comfortable.

The grandma took Zhou Xiyun's back and patted it twice, the creases at the corners of her eyes were squeezed together, and she sighed, "I'm so skinny, I'm so tired outside."

It was time to leave at dawn, and grandma stuffed a bunch of things for them to take with them, including the cured meat that they had prepared for them, the stewed pork that was made fresh yesterday, and some things that they usually bought, such as Qiao Yan's favorite. Artisan pastries.Grandma cherished the child, grabbed Qiao Yan and whispered to her not to bring food over secretly at night, and said: "It's dark and the grass has to run around, your mother is not at ease, do you understand?"

Qiao Yan nodded and agreed.

Grandma sent them away, and stood at the door in the cold wind for a long time, reluctant to let the two young people go.

No matter how big things can be, that's all.

Coming out of the closet and staying out of the closet did not seem to be extremely annoying after that period, at least not serious for the Qiao family.Heterosexuality or homosexuality is no match for the importance of family affection. This is what grandma and the others think. After all, she is a girl who has been brought up through hard work. How can she not feel sorry for her? She will never cut off the relationship in her life. Grandma never said this, and neither did Xu Ziqing.

Home is home, that's different.

On the way back to the shop, Qiao Yan turned to Zhou Xiyun, glanced at the driver in front of him, then moved over to touch the man's shoulder, and whispered, "Do you see that my grandma likes you?"

Zhou Xiyun asked back, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Yan said seriously: "Our revolution is one-third successful." Zhou Xiyun smiled, "Yes." Qiao Yan said seriously: "Comrade still needs to work hard." .”

Qiao Yan was so happy that he leaned over and fell into Zhou Xiyun's arms, rubbing against her chest and laughing uncontrollably.

The driver in front looked in the rearview mirror, thinking that the two of them were best friends, and thought they were talking about some little secret.The driver was enthusiastic and happy that the Chinese New Year was coming soon. Hearing that the passengers were so happy, he chatted with them for a while.

The driver master didn't think about that, and praised the two of them as sisters.

After getting out of the car, Qiao Yan winked at Zhou Xiyun, and half-playfully said, "Sister Zhou, we will be sisters from now on." Zhou Xiyun glanced at her and corrected him, "It doesn't look like her." Qiao Yan said, "It's still a little Like, just lost." Zhou Xiyun didn't recognize this, and didn't want to be her sister.

While there was no one in the parking space, Qiao Yan pecked Zhou Xiyun's mouth, and then quickly moved away.Zhou Xiyun's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick to stop her. At this moment, he grabbed her and grabbed her back to kiss her again.

Qiao Yan had no guts, so he said twice. "Someone later...someone is coming..."

Zhou Xiyun raised his hand to cover her eyes, flickering fair and brightly: "Don't be afraid, you can't see."

Qiao Yan was not fooled, but protesting was useless and useless.
