Chapter 634 Take it Home
Zhou Xing asked about the other party's background.
The person in charge of the brothel told the truth, and it sounded like there was nothing wrong with it.
After asking almost all the questions, Zhou Xing stood up and said, "Okay, it's getting late, so I'll leave first."
The person in charge saw the man out the door and forced him to eat two packets of snacks. Only then did he feel relieved.
A few days later, Zhou Xing returned to the Security Bureau from his home in Mengzi to work. When he passed by the shelter, he saw a pretty figure.
She was standing with her back to the door, drying clothes in the yard.
As if she felt Zhou Xing's gaze, she slowly turned her head, and their eyes met. Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment.
After a moment of awkwardness, he quickly calmed down, opened the door and walked in.
When the woman saw Zhou Xing, her watery eyes instantly brightened.
"Sir."
The woman stepped forward and bowed, acting like a lady from a noble family.
Zhou Xing felt a little embarrassed. He grew up in the northern wilderness and had never seen such a beautiful and dignified woman.
"You, you don't have to be like this. I'm not some young master."
The woman stood up shyly and smiled, "Sir, just call me Qingqing."
Zhou Xing nodded and said, "My name is Zhou Xing and I work in the Security Bureau. You can just call me Zhou Xing. I've been so busy these days that I forgot about you, young lady. I just wanted to ask you, what are your plans for the future?" He couldn't always live in the Security Bureau.
Hearing this, Qingqing lowered her eyes and said, "To be honest, sir, I want to leave my father. As long as I can have food to eat, I can go anywhere."
If there is a relative in the family who wants to sell himself, no one would want to go back.
Zhou Xing understood her, but how to place her was indeed a problem, mainly because it was not appropriate to put her in a school at her age.
Tiankui City will raise children without relatives for free, but it is limited to children.
Qingqing secretly glanced at Zhou Xing twice, and mustered up her courage and said softly: "I can do everything, including washing clothes, cooking and cleaning. I don't have any requirements, as long as I can have a bite to eat. Please take me in, Mr. Zhou."
"Huh?" Zhou Xing was shocked. Did he want to root for him?
His father passed away last year, and his mother was the only one left at home. It was no problem for him to support one more person with the money he earned every month...
But……
They had only met twice.
"Xing'er, why are you here? Mother couldn't find you in the front hall."
As the two were talking, a middle-aged woman walked in.
"Mom, why are you here?" Zhou Xing looked surprised.
Aunt Zhou just glanced at Zhou Xing and then her eyes fell on Qingqing.
"Is this girl new in your security department? What does she do? She's really pretty."
Qingqing lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Auntie, I'm not from the Security Bureau. I met some bad guys on the road a few days ago and was rescued by Master Zhou. I have nowhere to go for the time being, so Master Zhou put me in the shelter."
Aunt Zhou became excited when she heard it.
"Oh, how come such a nice girl has nowhere to go? Where are her family members?"
Qingqing told her story and then knelt down in front of Aunt Zhou.
"Please take me in, Auntie. I eat very little, just one meal a day. I really don't dare to go back. I'm afraid my father will sell me to that place again."
Aunt Zhou was a kind-hearted person, and she felt uncomfortable when she heard Qingqing say that.
Who could bear to see a good girl being sold to a place like that?
"Don't worry, dear child. Go back with me first. Although my family is not rich, we can still give you food to eat."
Zhou Xing felt that it was not appropriate to do so. What was the point of a good girl following them home? Although the rules of Tiankui City were not that strict, Qingqing was an unmarried girl after all. If this matter got out, she would not be able to get married.
"Thank you, Auntie, and thank you, Mr. Zhou. You are Qingqing's benefactors."
The words that were about to come out of Zhou Xing's mouth were blocked. Forget it, he would go to Qingqing's house later and talk to her family.
Aunt Zhou happily took the person home.
Tian Niu came out of the yard and saw Aunt Zhou getting ready to go out and asked, "Where are you going?"
Aunt Zhou smiled and said, "Go buy some fish. We have guests coming to our house today."
Aunt Zhou's words made Tian Niu a little curious. At this time, everyone was busy with spring farming. Who had time to visit other people's homes?
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to buy fish first."
Tian Niu looked curiously towards Aunt Zhou's yard and saw a slender figure standing in the yard. She became even more confused, but she didn't think much about it and turned around and left.
In the evening, Aunt Zhou hurriedly prepared two meat dishes, a grilled fish and a fried egg with some pickles.
Zhou Xing has income every month and he also has land to farm, but even so, it is good enough for him to eat meat a few times a month. He can only eat such dishes during festivals.
"Come on Qingqing, sit down and eat more."
Aunt Zhou greeted them warmly.
Zhou Xingzao smelled the aroma and sat down on the chair. "You're welcome. My mother's cooking is good. Come and try it."
Qingqing looked grateful and picked up the chopsticks to pick up some food for Aunt Zhou. "Auntie, eat more."
"Oh, okay, okay."
At night, Aunt Zhou cleaned up the empty room in her house for Qingqing to live in, and also found her some clean clothes.
"My size seems to be about the same as yours, so you can just make do with what you have. When Zhou Xing gets his salary this month, I'll buy you some cloth and make you a new set of clothes."
"Thank you, Auntie. I can just wear the old ones. Don't spend money on me."
Aunt Zhou said with a smile: "What's the point of spending money? It's not a big deal. The hot water is at the back. Go get some hot water to wash yourself and go to bed early."
"good."
Qingqing took her clothes to the backyard, washed up, and walked out of the bathroom, just in time to run into Zhou Xing who was drying himself in the yard.
When Zhou Xing heard the noise, he turned around and saw Qingqing standing in the night wearing only a thin shirt.
Her fair skin seemed to be covered with a layer of light under the moonlight, so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off it, especially her shy eyes, which made Zhou Xing feel hot all over.
As if possessed by a ghost, he walked up to Qingqing and hugged her.
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou..." The soft voice was like a bewitchment, almost making Zhou Xing lose his mind.
He suddenly picked the person up and carried him towards his room.
With a bang, the door closed.
When Mrs. Zhou heard the noise, she came out of the house curiously, but seeing that both doors were closed, she thought something was blown down by the wind and went back to her room without thinking any more.
A dreamless night.
The roosters crowed in the early morning, and golden light gradually spread across the earth.
Qingqing slowly opened her eyes, and a look of astonishment flashed in her eyes when she looked around.
