Chapter 69 10.01/It's a liar, you found another one...

When Chu Song got home with the books, he received a call from the property management.

The electronic lock on her door broke down two days ago, and she could only open it with a key recently. Just as she inserted the key into the keyhole, she heard a dog barking again in the house diagonally opposite.

After the property management asked her about her opinion on the recent greening renovation of the community, they routinely asked her if she had any problems with her living conditions recently.

Chu Song thought about it again and again, and tactfully asked if the barking of the dog in the house across the street could be quieter.

Every time she got out of the elevator, the dog would bark wildly when it heard the noise. She didn't know how big the dog was, but sometimes she would be really scared when she heard it suddenly.

The property management hung up the phone and called Fan Tingnian again.

The man frowned fiercely. After a moment, he lowered his eyes to look at the short-haired dog on the ground. "So she doesn't like it?"

"Huh?" The staff member was taken aback. She wasn't the one who spotted someone at Fan Tingnian's door last time, so she didn't know the relationship between Fan Tingnian and Chu Song. She felt a little strange about the rhetorical question, but she still answered according to Fan Tingnian's meaning: "The owner didn't say he didn't like it, but maybe the dog's barking was too loud and it was disturbing to others, so..."

"I see." Then I still don't like it.

Chu Song returned home, went into the bedroom to take a shower, and then came out and went directly into the small study next door.

There were five or six books in total that she bought, all packed in a large shopping bag. She took them out carefully, picked up a book, turned it over, looked at the book introduction at the end, then pulled out a chair and sat down, unpacked all the books, and took out a book to read carefully.

Halfway through reading the book, her phone notified her of an incoming message. She took a breath, read the last line, raised her hand to support her neck, turned her head, and then picked up the phone.

It was a mobile phone number with no remarks, and she clicked on it to take a look.

130xxxx4389: [Are you home?]

130xxxx4389: [I have something for you. I'm downstairs at your house.]

He probably realized that Chu Song might not know his number when he sent this message. A minute later, another message came in.

130xxxx4389: [I am Chu Xiangwei.]

Chu Song was puzzled, so he closed the book and called directly. The receiver beeped and the other party picked up the phone.

Chu Song frowned: "What are you doing here?"

The boy opposite hesitated: "Don't worry about it, just come down first."

Chu Song looked up at the clock: "It's already eight o'clock, go back quickly."

Chu Xiangwei hesitated for a moment, a little anxious: "Come down quickly, I got the money."

"What money?" Chu Song stood up.

Chu Xiangwei didn't say anything, but urged: "You'll know when you come down. I'm at the gate of your community. Do you need to swipe a card to enter your community? I can't get in, and I don't know which building you are in..."

Chu Song was helpless. After thinking about it, he got up and put on his coat. A few minutes later, he went downstairs and walked out of the yard.

It was dim at night, and a street lamp in front of the community gate lengthened the boy's shadow. He was still wearing the white sweatshirt he had put on today, and in this light, he looked even thinner and taller.

Seeing her come out, the boy put down his tiptoes and stopped stretching his neck. He raised his hand and pulled the hood of his sweatshirt over his head, calling out unnaturally: "Sister."

Not wanting to change clothes, Chu Song put on a coat over his pajamas, put his hands in his coat pockets, and walked over with a frown: "What are you doing here?"

Chu Xiangwei took out an envelope from the large pocket on the belly of his sweatshirt and stuffed it directly into her hand: "This is the money your husband brought..."

"What husband?" Chu Song interrupted him.

Chu Xiangwei was interrupted and paused. "As for your boyfriend, when he came over, he said he was your...husband. Dad was stunned for a moment and asked to see the marriage certificate. Later, he said he was just your boyfriend."

First Song:..........

Chu Xiangwei finished speaking and didn't dwell on the topic any further. He pointed to the envelope he had just stuffed into Chu Song's hand and said, "This is from your husband... No, are you really married?"

Chu Song didn't answer and looked at him.

"If you don't want to tell me, forget it..." The teenage boy, with his temper, didn't dwell on the topic any further. He pointed his chin at the envelope and changed the subject, "Your boyfriend gave it to you. Besides the 300,000 yuan you received, there's another 100,000 yuan in the family card. They took out the 50,000 yuan, saying they were taking it back to their hometown to build a house. I heard that and took it out secretly."

"What are you going to do with it?"

"Here you go, isn't this your money?!" The boy seemed to think there was something wrong with her question.

After saying that, he noticed Chu Song's expression again: "Why are you looking at me like that! I'm not like them. I know this money is yours... And they treated you badly before, and they always use me as an excuse to ask you for money. It's so annoying. I don't want your money."

The young man said this with a hint of pride on his face.

Chu Song wasn't that stupid. She would definitely accept the gift. She put the envelope away and asked, "Are you going back by yourself now?"

"What else?" He didn't know if it was because he was uncomfortable, but he hadn't spoken in a good tone since he came here. He pulled up the sleeve of his sweatshirt, checked the time, and muttered, "I have to go. I still have to go to cram school."

"What cram school?"

"Mathematics," Chu Xiangwei finished speaking and looked at her again, "Alright, go up quickly. If nothing goes wrong, I won't come looking for you again. And..."

He paused, his face full of awkwardness. “Be careful living alone. My classmate’s cousin also rents a house outside. Some time ago, there was a thief who broke into her house... Anyway, in the end, she was injured and stayed in the hospital for a long time.”

Chu Song glanced at his awkward expression and said, "Why are you telling me all this?"

"nothing."

Chu Xiangwei remembered Chu Song's high school summer vacation. On the first day of vacation, she returned home. Her family had forgotten about her vacation and were planning to go to the neighboring city for two days. Their car was parked outside. He ran home to get his things and bumped into Chu Song who was also returning home with a lot of luggage.

Later, when he took his things and left, he peeked through the door and heard her crying in the bedroom next door.

"Anyway, I've said everything I wanted to say," Chu Xiangwei muttered. "Take the money and stay safe."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Chu Song not far behind him.

Under the leafless branches, a man was walking out. The man was wearing a dark windbreaker and holding a dog leash in his right hand, with a small white dog.

Although it was dark, he could still barely make out the man's appearance. He seemed to be his sister's husband.

Although he stayed in the bedroom and didn't come out when Fan Tingnian went to his house last time, he looked out through the crack of the door, so he knew Fan Tingnian, but Fan Tingnian didn't know him.

Chu Xiangwei reacted and realized that there seemed to be nothing wrong with a couple living together.

"I thought you lived alone..." he muttered.

Chu Song didn't hear it. She had just tucked the corners of the envelope in and looked up at him: "What did you say?"

"nothing."

They were also standing under a tree. Chu Xiangwei saw a large leaf fall on Chu Song's head. Chu Song also felt it and shook her head, but it didn't fall off. Chu Xiangwei raised his hand and helped her pick it off.

Fan Tingnian, who was not far away, stopped.

The dog he brought out was too difficult to manage. It was either struggling to break free from the leash or running back and forth, wanting to smell everything it saw. As soon as he looked up, he saw Chu Song and a dead man who came from nowhere standing very close to each other, talking about something.

She hasn't reconciled with him yet. Is it because she likes someone else again?

She is not loyal at all, she likes anything good she sees.

Nothing like him at all.

Fan Tingnian tightened the dog leash in his right hand, and a trace of struggling anger appeared on his face.

Chu Xiangwei didn't know why his brother-in-law was staring at him as if he were his mortal enemy.

Is it because he knows that Chu Song has a bad relationship with his family, so he also dislikes everyone in Chu Song's family?

"I'm leaving." Chu Xiangwei was afraid that Fan Tingnian would beat him to protect Chu Song. He had come here to do good deeds, and it would be very unfair to be beaten for no reason.

“Okay.” Chu Song nodded, and seeing that his collar was askew, he helped him pull it up.

A few minutes later, Chu Xiangwei left, and Chu Song turned around and walked towards the building where he lived.

Fan Tingnian walked out from the shadow of the tree and looked in her direction.

The dog in his right hand pulled the leash back with all his might, howling from time to time, strongly expressing his desire not to go back just after coming out.

Fan Tingnian lowered his eyes and glanced at it.

White short-haired dog: "Woof——"

Two seconds later, the man said indifferently, "I'll bring you out in half an hour. I need to go back now."

White short-haired dog: "Woof——"

Fan Tingnian lowered his eyes to glance at his dazzling watch inlaid with diamonds. "I just took you out at eight this morning. Wan Ting said we'll take you out every twelve hours. There are still ten minutes until eight o'clock. I can take you out later."

The white short-haired dog kept pestering him: "Woof——"

Fan Tingnian ignored its request and took it back to the building they had just come out of.

Two minutes later, he returned upstairs, one step behind Chu Song.

After coming out of the elevator, he did not go home immediately, but stood in the corridor, his eyes fell on Chu Song's door, and stared at it for a few more seconds.

Then, when he was about to move forward, the door of the safety passage a few meters away was suddenly opened, and Chu Song walked out.

As soon as she came back, she felt someone following her, and Chu Xiangwei kept looking behind her before leaving. She felt something was wrong, so she didn't take the elevator and took the emergency passage.

Unexpectedly, the person following her was actually Fan Tingnian.

Before she could recover from her shock, she saw the man step forward in the dim light, staring at her intently with a cold voice.

In a questioning tone: "You liar, you found another one, didn't you?"
