Chapter 116: Staying
When Wen Chi came over after finishing his call, he found that the atmosphere in the living room was a little stagnant.
Tan Yong sat in the middle of the sofa, with Jian Lin smiling to his left, and Zhou Lizhi peeling fruit to his right...
Huh? Zhou Lizhi? Why is he here?
It's not just him.
Zhao Sizhen and Yu Xiaoxiao also came. They sat on the sofa on the right, smiling seemingly in a friendly manner, but there seemed to be a knife hidden in their smiles, which was vaguely dangerous.
Except for the sofa, all the chairs in the living room were occupied.
Those who don't have chairs stand with their arms folded.
Counting them piecemeal, there were nearly twenty people in the living room besides Tan Yong!
Even though Tan Yong was an experienced criminal policeman who had seen many storms, he could not help but feel pressured when being silently stared at by nearly twenty pairs of eyes.
He felt thirsty and quickly drank some tea to ease the embarrassment.
When he finally saw Wen Chi, he stood up and greeted him as if he had seen a savior.
"Wen Chi, you're here! Finally you're here!"
"Sorry, something happened just now."
As Wen Chi spoke, he scanned the others and finally stopped at Zhao Sizhen, who he was barely familiar with.
Zhao Sizhen waved his hand generously:
"Don't worry about it. We're just here to see how Officer Tan plans to take Sui Sui away this time."
The words were spoken kindly with a smile, but to Wen Chi, they sounded more like "nuclear kindness"!
Sure enough, Tan Yong shuddered all over and felt a cool breeze on the back of his head.
"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"
Tan Yong finally understood why everyone looked at him with such hostility!
I guess everyone thought that he was here to take Sui Sui away!
But……
"I'm really not here to take Sui Sui away this time!"
"……ha?"
Zhao Sizhen was stunned for a moment, and the silly look on her face diluted her big sister temperament.
Wen Chi was also surprised.
Tan Yong had no choice but to explain!
It turned out that after he finished the on-site investigation of the Li Tian murder case in the early morning, while other colleagues were returning to the police station, he thought of Sui Sui and decided to come over on the way.
But it’s not to take Sui Sui away, but to discuss with everyone how to make Sui Sui stay!
"Yesterday, I saw Wen Chi's support for Sui Sui, and I was very touched. I also think that letting Sui Sui stay is the right thing to do. Besides, the child's strong wishes are here. What's most important is Sui Sui's happiness, isn't it?"
Tan Yong's understanding surprised everyone present.
A quiet complaint came from the corner:
"So Officer Tan also knows that being happy every year is the most important thing..."
The environment was so quiet that everyone could hear the complaint clearly.
Some nodded in agreement, some tried to hold back their laughter, and only Tan Yong felt the most embarrassed.
But when he looked towards the corner, he couldn't find who said it. Everyone looked stupid.
Jian Lin coughed, glanced around with a warning, and then said:
"Officer Tan is taking a risk by coming to us, right?"
The chief director is young, so most of the people in the team are young people in their twenties who don’t understand some things.
But Jian Lin is different.
She knew that just by saying this, Tan Yong had already taken on the possibility of damaging his career, which was not easy for anyone.
Jian Lin said sincerely:
"I didn't expect Officer Tan to come for this. It was a misunderstanding. I'm sorry. Thank you too."
Tan Yong was very generous and said with a smile that it was okay:
"It's all for the children's sake."
The misunderstanding was resolved and the whole atmosphere relaxed.
Then everyone will be troubled by another problem -
How to keep the years?
Wen Chi glanced at the distressed people in the living room.
It turns out that he is not the only one who is worried about Sui Sui.
fine.
"I have an idea."
He stood up and spoke.
…
Half an hour later, Tan Yong drove away with a smile on his face.
The matter was resolved smoothly.
With Chu Yan as guarantor, Lawyer Qin personally appearing, and Sui Sui's strong desire to stay...
In the end, this matter was officially endorsed, and Suisui was able to continue staying in the program crew without any worries.
Wen Chi told Sui Sui the good news, seeming to take credit for it:
"See, I said I'd take care of this!"
The seals clapped their hands joyfully:
"Really?! Bro is awesome! Bro is the best!"
Wen Chi raised his chin happily, and it seemed as if an invisible tail was wagging behind him.
"Ah, yes, but this is still temporary."
"What?"
Sui Sui’s smile froze on his face.
Wen Chi explained:
"'For now' until you find your parents."
She smiles again every year, and murmurs:
“I guess I’ll never find it.”
Wen Chi bent down:
"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly!"
Sui Sui shook his head vigorously to deny:
"I didn't say anything!"
Here we go again, the old lame denial.
Wen Chi, who was used to it, chose not to ask any further questions this time.
Every year has its own little secrets!
"Hey! Brother Zhou!"
Wen Chi called out to Zhou Lizhi who happened to be passing by in time.
Zhou Lizhi stopped and looked at him in confusion.
Wen Chi nodded:
"Thank you for coming here and working hard to keep Sui Sui, and for helping me find Sui Sui yesterday..."
Zhou Lizhi shook his head disapprovingly:
"I didn't do anything to help. Besides, Suisui is also part of the show. It's only natural for everyone to care about her, right?"
As he spoke, Zhou Lizhi looked at his Sui Sui curiously, revealing a warm and friendly smile.
Sui Sui also waved his little paw in a friendly manner:
"Hello, Brother Li Zhi."
Wen Chi pursed his lips:
"Hey, Sui Sui, what did you say you wanted to eat?"
Year after year, I feel lost:
"I, did I say anything?"
Wen Chi nodded firmly:
"certainly!"
Zhou Lizhi looked at Wen Chi in surprise.
Wen Chi was a little panicked, but he pretended to be calm.
After being confused for a while, Sui Sui scratched his head, thinking that he had forgotten.
She rubbed her belly:
"I'm really a little hungry... Then I want to eat porridge and buns!"
Wen Chi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to look at Sui Sui with encouragement:
"Well, what else?"
Sui Sui tilted his head, and his ahoge once again turned into a question mark shape:
"Isn't this enough? But, I can't eat that much!"
She was genuinely confused.
Even Zhou Lizhi came out to help:
"Well, Suisui is young, so you can't eat too much. Be careful of indigestion."
Suddenly, a breath got stuck in Wen Chi's throat.
He talked so much nonsense because...
Every year, a flash of inspiration comes:
"What do you want to eat, brother?"
Wen Chi, whose little thought was satisfied, smiled:
"Me? I'll just eat something."
No more mention of breakfast was made afterwards.
At the same time, he glanced at Zhou Lizhi with a proud and slightly complacent look, like a winner.
Sui Sui was completely confused and scratched his head with his little hands.
Why is Xiaochi suddenly happy?
Humans...men are so hard to understand!
Zhou Lizhi, on the other hand, saw through Wen Chi's little thoughts.
Isn’t it just the contrast between “brother” and “brother Li Zhi”?
Does a name without a prefix mean closer?
...It seems to be true.
And Zhou Lizhi was indeed just as Wen Chi had hoped, and he couldn't help but feel envious.
