Chen Zhouhe did not go upstairs as Xie Gui wished.

Fortunately, Xie Gui said that taking the USB flash drive was not a pretense, he quickly came down from upstairs, gave the USB flash drive to Chen Zhouhe, and explained some of the company's situation in the past two years.

Chen Zhouhe heard a vague idea, rejected Xie Gui's proposal to take a day off first, and planned to go to the hotel to settle down and go directly to the company to report.

The hotel was booked by Xie Gui in advance - he knew that the possibility of Chen Zhouhe agreeing to live with him was very slim.

But what if...

The hotel is the presidential suite booked by Xie Gui, which is on the top floor of the guest room.

"Brother, is that all you brought with you?" Xie Gui helped him unload his luggage, and couldn't help asking when he saw that the trunk was just two suitcases.

"I won't be here for long." Chen Zhouhe took out all the suitcases, "Besides, if there is anything missing, you can just buy it here."

"Yes." Xie Gui seemed afraid that Chen Zhouhe would refuse, grabbed the suitcase on the ground and walked forward.

Chen Zhouhe didn't react, and Xie Gui's back was already three meters away, so he had to put on his computer bag and follow behind him.

The elevator went all the way up to the seventeenth floor.

"You don't need to book such a nice room. I told you I won't be staying for long." Chen Zhouhe frowned as he looked at the floor, "I live alone, so it's a waste of such a large space for me."

"That won't work," Xie Gui muttered in a low voice, "It took a lot of effort to find you to take over this mess, but if the salary doesn't keep up, what if you run away again?"

Chen Zhouhe raised his tail and hummed.

"What I mean is," Xie Gui hurriedly remedied, "I want to treat you well..."

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Chen Zhouhe, met his gaze and looked away aggrievedly.

so back and forth.

Chen Zhouhe: "..."

Xie Gui didn't make much progress in the past two years, but when she reflected on the past, she found something extraordinary.

He found that before his relationship with Chen Zhouhe broke up, no matter how much trouble he caused, as long as he looked at Chen Zhouhe innocently and aggrieved like this, and called him brother, Chen Zhouhe would respond to anything.

Now, although he was not sure whether Chen Zhouhe would still have one tenth of his soft heart, it was right to show weakness.

Chen Zhouhe seemed to want to say something, but just as soon as he mentioned it, he felt that it would be a waste of time to talk to him, so he just shut up.

When the two arrived at the company, it happened to be the end of their lunch break, and the company was extremely quiet. As soon as Chen Zhouhe approached the elevator, he bumped into Xie Ziqian.

Chen Zhouhe originally thought that without him, Xie Ziqian would be able to live like a fish in water, but now it doesn't seem so.

Xie Ziqian is much thinner than when he left two years ago, his cheeks are slightly sunken, his cheekbones are more prominent, he probably has irregular work and rest, and his complexion is not good-looking.

In the past, Xie Ziqian and Xie Gui were two to three points alike because of blood relationship, but now it is impossible to tell that he and Xie Gui are uncles and nephews.

Chen Zhouhe sighed secretly, and smiled at Xie Ziqian.

Save face is still something to do.

Xie Ziqian saw that he was like a mirror in his heart, knew why he came back this time, and who encouraged him, and the resentment towards Lan Xiuzhi in his heart increased.

He twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, but with the look of not having a good rest in those few days, it looked gloomy no matter what.

Xie Gui helped Chen Zhouhe to get the personnel card, and when he came back, he happened to see the two of them meet on a narrow road.

He became vigilant, leaned forward and squeezed between the two, smiling perfunctorily: "Why is uncle here? The meeting is over?"

It is said to be a meeting, but it is essentially a meeting to criticize Xie Ziqian. He has been in charge for the past two years, and the company has stagnated. It became a bad project.

Under the pressure of Lan Xiuzhi, the board of directors became less and less tolerant of him, and Xie Gui, who was not fuel-efficient, also made a hindrance.

"It's over early, I'm busy, you can take care of yourself," Xie Ziqian smiled, "Uncle is not as lucky as you, there are noble people to help."

Chen Guiren met Xie Ziqian's poking gaze, nodded calmly, and tightened the hat of "noble man", Xie Ziqian was so angry that his chest hurt.

He reluctantly exchanged a few pleasantries, and closed the door after returning to the office.

The phone rang at the right time, as if he couldn't rest for a quarter of an hour. Xie Ziqian took the phone and glanced at the incoming call notification, his gloomy expression relaxed, and his expression turned out to be gentle.

"Hi, Mom." Xie Ziqian called out.

The phone call from the opposite side is the same drama every time, and this time I don't even pretend to be——

"Ziqian, Mommy is out of money again."

Xie Ziqian's expression was gloomy, and it was rare that he didn't let go: "I remember my sister just picked up the car two days ago."

"Where did your sister mention it for myself? It was for your little nephew. They are getting older now, and everyone in the circle has to compare them. I also want him to have a little face when he goes out. I want to take advantage of these two years to decide on the marriage." Come down, wow," Qianqian raised her hands to appreciate the manicure she just made, and the 50-year-old looks like a 30-year-old lady, "Mommy knows, we don't need your real mommy and sister, your real sister was born Just have everything, marry a good person, you will have nothing to worry about in your life, mommy's life is cheap..."

"I see," Xie Ziqian had heard these words for more than ten years, and for the first time a little dark fire arose, he held his temper and said, "I will send you the money tomorrow, and I will be free in two months." , take advantage of a business trip to see you."

"Ah?" Qianqian was stunned when she heard his words, subconsciously looked at the male model next to her, and refused again and again, "No need, no need, you are busy with work, don't distract us, Mommy can take care of herself... Besides Yes, come to see us and tell your mommy to know, there is a gap in your heart."

Also.

Xie Ziqian sat on the leather chair, slightly arched his back, said "OK" in a low voice, and hung up the phone.

On the first day back to the company, Chen Zhouhe was obviously overwhelmed. He had to deal with the inquisitive small managers and former colleagues. Xie Gui's USB flash drive was full of more than a dozen g, and Chen Zhouhe was suspicious. He's here to get emotional.

Fortunately, although the USB flash drive contained a lot of content, Xie Gui handled it in an orderly manner. With some documents, Chen Zhouhe finally figured out the situation before dark.

"Brother, can we have a meal together?" Xie Gui entered the door at some unknown time, and Chen Zhouhe just rubbed his sore neck and saw him when he turned around.

Chen Zhouhe was taken aback by him, subconsciously displeased: "Aren't you knocking when you come in?"

The lights in his office were not turned on, the light was very dark, the sun was about to set, and the remaining blush fell on the floor in the office.

"I knocked," Xie Gui felt aggrieved, "I only came in after you agreed."

Chen Zhouhe was silent, thinking that it seemed to be the case.

In the past, Lan Xiuzhi didn't give him special assistants like secretaries in order to hone him in the office. He was used to starting from the bottom. This time it was different when he came back, he had everything from the office to the assistants.

When Xie Gui knocked on the door, he probably mistook it for his assistant who was off work, and he casually agreed to let him in.

"Brother, you've been busy all day, you're tired." Xie Gui walked him down the steps thoughtfully, "I've booked a restaurant, let's go together..."

"No," Chen Zhouhe hesitated, but still refused, "I'll go to the hospital to see grandma first."

Lan Xiuzhi's operation a week ago had to be observed specially within a week, and no outsiders were allowed to visit. Today, the critical period was almost over, so Chen Zhouhe wanted to go and see.

"Then I'll go with you." Xie Gui followed suit.

After all, she was also his grandma, and Chen Zhouhe couldn't think of a reason to refuse for a while, so he just let him go.The two got into the car one after the other, and it was only when Xie Gui closed the door of the co-pilot that Chen Zhouhe realized it.

"Don't you have your own car?" he asked.

"My car broke down," Xie Gui said, observing Chen Zhouhe's expression carefully, "Brother, if you don't want to drive me, I can go down and take a taxi."

It's all on the way, it doesn't matter whether it's loaded or not, Chen Zhouhe started the car: "Let's talk about it first, I won't take you home."

Hearing this, Xie Gui's eyes flickered, but he didn't let him see: "It's okay bro, just put me at the bottom of the hotel."

Chen Zhouhe was noncommittal.

As night fell and the lights came on, the car quickly entered the traffic flow.

In the hospital, Xie Baozhen looked at the two people who came together, and tilted her head in surprise: "Xie Gui? Didn't you come here in the afternoon?"

Chen Zhouhe and Xie Gui, who skipped work in the afternoon when they were so busy that they broke up in half for a minute: "..."

"I came with my brother," Xie Gui said, with a top-notch face after two years of tempering, "I was also worried about grandma's situation and wanted to come again."

Xie Baozhen nodded.

Aside from the turbulent situation, this was the first time Xie Baozhen took a serious look at Chen Zhouhe after two years of separation.

Very simple black T, blue striped short-sleeved shirt, straight-leg jeans, peach blossom eyes, when looking at a person quietly, it seems that the whole world is used as a background for him.

From style to temperament, he is very different from two years ago.

Two years ago, Chen Zhouhe was pressured by Lan Xiuzhi. He had to bear the responsibilities of Xie Jia and Xie Gui. The word "young" was not a good thing for him. A young stupid boy can't be suppressed in the workplace. He is a human being, so his dressing style is mostly mature, which complements his gentle yet sharp personality.

Xie Baozhen originally thought that Chen Zhouhe was such a person, but only now did she realize that Chen Zhouhe and such a relaxed and youthful combination are also very suitable.

He went out like this, and some people believed him when he said he was a college student.

Xie Baozhen stared at him blankly, Chen Zhouhe didn't know what she was thinking, he just looked at her dark eyes, knowing that she hadn't had a good rest recently because of Lan Xiuzhi's matter, so he went into the ward after a little greeting.

"Chen Chen is here..."

Lan Xiuzhi's condition is getting worse and worse, and the anger on her body is visibly dissipating.

Chen Zhouhe hummed, sat on the edge of the bed and talked softly with her, and saw her hand on his own.

Skinny, bulging veins, senile plaques due to hormone imbalance, and a few vacuums on it.

"Grandma thought you wouldn't come again after that day..." Lan Xiuzhi's eyes were slightly cloudy, and she smiled, "Chen Chen is a kind child..."

She recalled that day.

Chen Zhouhe is not an unprincipled person, that day in the ward, no matter how attractive the conditions offered by Lan Xiuzhi, he would not be moved.

Xie Gui has grown up, and he doesn't need to do anything for the Xie family.

Lan Xiuzhi was not in a hurry, and chatted with him little by little about his childhood with the weakness of the postoperative illness. First, she relaxed his guard and softened his attitude psychologically, and waited until Chen Zhouhe could calmly and steadily follow her. The rhythm is gone, let's say-

"You have also seen my situation. Grandma is a person whose neck is half buried in the soil. Those doctors are only obedient. In fact, I know my situation well...Grandma is almost dying," Lan Xiuzhi coughed twice "Grandma seldom asks for help or admits mistakes in this life. Back then, I was the one who lied to you. But this time, grandma still wants to beg you... Please help Xie Gui, I can see it." What is the reason for this child's changes in the past two years? I am also responsible for what happened at the beginning. You can beat him or punish him, but just this matter... Chen Chen, you can't let grandma go underground and not look down. ..."

"Grandma is serious." Chen Zhouhe tucked her in the quilt, "Everyone has relatives, I understand."

In the corridor, Xie Gui leaned against the wall, her eyes fell on the closed door, her eyebrows were soft.

For the past two years, he has either stayed at school or at the company, and he will avoid her to visit Lan Xiuzhi during the small holidays, and it is said that he is all in country E during the big holidays.

Xie Gui's temperament has settled down, and her personality is not as radical as before.Xie Baozhen seldom sees him, and occasionally sees him in a trance and feels like seeing another Chen Zhouhe.

"Xie Gui, do you blame me in your heart?" Xie Baozhen couldn't help asking, "Because of Chen Chen?"

Xie Gui didn't want to talk to her about this.

Xie Baozhen was an elder who watched him grow up. For so many years, because of Xie Wendu's relationship, he loved his house and cared for him a lot. It would be boring to talk about many things.

"It's not a complaint, it's just a fear." Xie Gui said lightly.

His current appearance is different from that in front of Chen Zhouhe, let alone enthusiasm, he can even be considered cold, the incandescent light hits his side face, reflecting a three-dimensional face.

Xie Gui's eyebrows are most similar to Xie Wendu's, with deep eye sockets and slightly drooping corners of the eyes. These eyebrows are innocent and sticky puppy eyes when facing people close to her, but they are a bit sharp when facing strangers.

"Are you afraid of me?" Xie Baozhen's breath became stagnant, "But my sister has done so much for you."

"Sister-in-law," Xie Gui straightened up, piercing her self-deception, "Are you for me or for the me that Xie Ziqian said? You have been born so smoothly, and grandma has raised you very well. You can do whatever you want. You don’t have your own opinions, and you can’t stand being bullied about big things, and you will fall when the wind blows you, so you believe what Xie Ziqian says.”

"If I'm not wrong," Xie Gui raised her thin eyelids, "Xie Ziqian must have told you that our surname is Xie, and that my family will not cheat my family, and that even if Chen Zhouhe pretends to be ironic on the surface, in his heart After all, you are still not familiar with it, think for yourself?"

Xie Baozhen muttered, but had nothing to say.

"You are not thinking about me, you are afraid of losing this kind of life, you are afraid that if grandma is gone and Chen Zhouhe takes power as Xie Ziqian said, you will all rely on others," Xie Gui said these words almost cruelly, "so Back then you helped grandma deceive Chen Zhou and take advantage of his guilt, and then you told Xie Ziqian the truth that you guys fabricated."

"Sister-in-law, you can say with your conscience that Chen Zhouhe has been in Xie's family for so many years, how much he has given you and what he has received from you. Then compare Xie Ziqian, your so-called kindness How much did my brother take from you and give you?" Xie Gui calmed down and said, "I, Xie Gui, used to be an asshole. I admit it. Even if Chen Zhouhe wants me to kneel down, I can do it. At least I dare to admit that I was wrong... but you dare not."

"Is there a quarrel outside?" Lan Xiuzhi and Chen Zhouhe were talking, chatting and hearing the noise outside the door gradually getting louder, and asked in confusion.

The soundproofing of the door was good, so Chen Zhouhe couldn't hear clearly.

"Let me go and have a look," Chen Zhouhe said, "It just so happens that I won't disturb grandma's rest."

"Go." Lan Xiuzhi looked at him quietly, this child who was raised by herself.

Seriously, Chen Zhouhe has been with her longer than Xie Gui, so long that she couldn't help feeling a little guilty when she looked at this child.

"...I don't know how much you can listen to these words, auntie, but in the future you will ask Chen Zhouhe to help you with errands before sucking his blood and draining his spirit." Rui made Xie Baozhen almost terrified at this moment, "The outsiders who you think can be manipulated vigorously and can't be warmed up are my relatives who can rest assured."

Chen Zhouhe happened to hear such a sentence when he came out, he was stunned, looked at Xie Gui, then at Xie Baozhen who was about to cry, and said nothing in accordance with the principle of the supremacy of silence.

Xie Gui didn't want him to hear this either, she went up to ask Lan Xiuzhi's situation in a low voice twice, and said she wanted to leave.

"By the way, sister," Xie Gui seemed to think of it suddenly, turning her eyes playfully, "But your thoughts are not all wrong, after all, my uncle is really kind to you, I also heard that Mr. I bought a lot of luxury jewelry, but I don’t know when you changed your address and moved to S state on the other side of the ocean.”

After he finished speaking, he left, leaving Xie Baozhen with a pale face.

State S... Isn't that where the family lives...
