"Mo Yan, is this the coconut facial cleanser you were eyeing?"
In a spacious and bright beauty store, Jin Xueyang was standing in front of a row of shelves, comparing products with pictures on his phone. After a while, he didn't hear back, so he called out again, "Mo Yan, come over and take a look!"
Zhang Moyan finally came back to her senses, put the bottle of perfume back to its original place, covered the spot on her wrist where she had tried the perfume, and walked towards Jin Xueyang.
The bottle of perfume just now seemed to smell like Xiao Xingyu, like the fresh and charming fragrance of flowers after the snow.
"Is this the facial cleanser you wanted?"
Zhang Moyan took it and looked at it: "Yes, it seems to have a new packaging."
"That's good." Jin Xueyang picked up two and put them in the shopping cart.
"One is enough, it's over three hundred!" Zhang Moyan wanted to take it back, but was blocked by Jin Xueyang: "Of course I pay when you go out with your girlfriend, you just need to pick the one you like."
Zhang Moyan paused and said, "I have my own money and can pay for it. You know, I hate gold diggers the most."
Jin Xueyang was speechless: "Two bottles of facial cleanser and you're already a gold digger. Where can you find such a low barrier to entry gold diggers? You've never been so polite before, why are you being so distant now?"
Zhang Moyan was in a dilemma. If she continued to insist on it, it would seem that she didn't treat the other person as her own.
"Okay then, I'll treat you to a meal later!"
Jin Xueyang rubbed her head and said, "Let's go back and eat. I haven't finished the chicken soup you cooked last night. It was so delicious that I'm still thinking about it! We can go to the supermarket and buy some more and stir-fry two dishes!"
Zhang Moyan forced herself not to turn away and smiled, "Okay."
There's really nothing wrong with going home for dinner.
In this situation, out of sight of Zhang Moyan and Jin Xueyang, he swallowed a quick-acting heart pill and said, "Huh..."
Should I tell him Brother Yu?
Watching the cashier scanning the product barcode, Zhang Moyan held her phone in her hand, still having the urge to hand over the payment code. Just as she was hesitating, a call suddenly popped up on the phone screen. The bright word "Mom" made her heart beat faster.
"Hello, Mom?" The blurted-out greeting caused a moment of silence on both ends of the line. The next second, Zhang Moyan realized the problem and apologized awkwardly, "Sorry, who are you looking for..."
"You talk to her!" Huang Qin seemed to have given the phone to someone else on the phone.
After a while, a loud male voice came: "Hello, comrade, I am a police officer from the Huamu Street Police Station. A man is suspected of breaking into Ms. Huang's home and demanding the items you left with her. Please come to my station to cooperate with the investigation!"
Zhang Moyan was confused for a moment, unable to recall what she had left behind. She mechanically replied, "Okay, I understand. I'll be there shortly."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Moyan and Jin Xueyang rushed to the police station. Arriving at the duty station, they discovered the details of the dispute far exceeded their expectations. Besides Zhang Feng and Huang Qin, Geng Baishan and Chen Guanfu were also present! The man who had intruded into the Zhang family's home and caused trouble was Geng Zhiwei, the uncle of the Geng family, the man with some mental issues who had previously caused a disturbance at the paternity testing center.
The three parties had obviously just been involved in a heated argument and were placed by the police in three corners of the room to calm down.
When he saw her arrive, Shen Baishan immediately stood up: "Here I come, here I come, you all have your grievances and your debts to your creditors!"
"Guo Man's daughter! Xiao Qi!" Geng Zhiwei shuddered and rushed towards Zhang Moyan, but was stopped by Geng Baishan's people who came with him after he was yelled at.
Jin Xueyang stretched out his hand to protect Zhang Moyan: "What are you doing!"
Chen Guanfu sat on the side like an old monk, watching from the sidelines, while Ms. Fujiwara Nanako stayed by his side like a shadow.
"Dad, Mom..."
This was the first time Zhang Moyan had met Zhang Feng and Huang Qin in over a month. It would be a lie to say she wasn't excited. Although she felt it was inappropriate to say so, she instinctively walked towards the people she was most familiar with in this situation: "Are you all okay? What did he want from me?"
"Your grandfather is over there, don't call anyone." Huang Qin was still angry and turned her body away to express her resistance to Zhang Moyan.
Zhang Feng looked at Zhang Moyan with a complicated expression, without saying anything, and pointed at a policeman in the window. The policeman who was registering felt his gaze and immediately walked over from the side door carrying a 16-inch white suitcase.
"You actually put something like this in our house! Are you deliberately trying to provoke us?" Huang Qin angrily scolded Zhang Moyan as soon as she saw the suitcase.
Zhang Moyan recognized at a glance that the suitcase was the one that Chen Guanfu had sent to her at the Zhang family before, and it contained Chen Yun’s childhood toys.
"I don't have it, I'm sorry," she said, hastily apologizing to Huang Qinzhangfeng, "I'm sorry, I forgot I had this thing."
"Forgot?!" Huang Qin panted and glared at her: "You forgot so easily? Why would you forget? Didn't you come back before?!"
"Quiet! Who should speak, you or me?!" the police officer shouted angrily, and then opened the suitcase on the table in front of Zhang Moyan.
"Please check this box to see if it belongs to you and if anything is missing from it."
"Okay." Zhang Moyan followed the police's instructions with his head boiling, and began to count the items according to his memory.
To be honest, she had only seen the box once. Because of her murky memories of her mother, Chen Yun, she had subconsciously chosen to forget about this relic. Months ago, Chen Guanfu had come to her home to give her this item, but she hadn't taken it back to Yunshan Home. After the Zhang family severed ties with her, she had only secretly returned to the Zhang family to place the 350,000 yuan, not taking anything else. Now that she thought about it, she could have said anything didn't belong to her, but leaving this item at the Zhang family was a mistake, a crime worthy of death.
"Is there anything missing?" the police officer asked.
Zhang Moyan shook her head: "They're all there." They were just some puppets, dolls, cartoon candles, tangram puzzles, and nine-ring puzzles.
She looked up and realized that everyone in the room was focusing their attention on these toys. She had an indescribable feeling.
The police officer took a document and said, "It would be great if nothing is missing. Please sign it and you can take your belongings away."
"Oh, okay," Zhang Moyan took the pen and signed. The police officer closed the box and pushed it against the table to her. Just as Zhang Moyan reached out to press the box, "Snap!" A hand pressed down on the box.
"You are not qualified to take this box back." Chen Guanfu said coldly.
The police officer frowned: "This is..."
"This is my daughter's relic," Chen Guanfu raised his hand, his eyes as cold as ice as he stared at Zhang Moyan. He answered the police officer in a flat voice, "I traveled thousands of miles to give her this precious thing, but she didn't cherish it at all and even forgot about it in someone else's home. I don't think she's worthy of inheriting this relic anymore. Officer, do I have the right to take it back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the room seemed to be swept away.
