Good Guy Card
To Xie Shiming, Chen Chu meant something very different to him since he was a child. He didn't know when it started, but his eyes would always follow him involuntarily, watching him having fun and having all kinds of fun with his belly sticking out and his butt sticking out every day, and he would be very happy too.
I never thought about separating from Shen Chu.
He thought they would always be by each other's side.
Same age, same birthday, grew up together, is his good friend, and is his younger brother who was born only half an hour later than him.
He wanted to give all his love to this chubby and cute little brother.
Just like his parents, they always pamper and take care of him.
He really never thought that one day they would be separated.
Even if he had asked his elder brother and prepared himself mentally...
But when that day really came, he still couldn't accept it.
——When Xiang Xinghe appeared, he felt panicked and helpless for the first time, and the feeling of being about to lose something came over him again.
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Chu liked his uncle so much, it would be really hard for him not to feel hostility towards Xiang Xinghe.
There was a feeling that his treasure had been stolen...
At that time, Xie Shiming actually couldn't sleep for several nights.
Sometimes when I look at the little pig sleeping soundly next to me, I can’t help but get angry, and I always have to pinch its face or belly a few times to vent my anger.
But he couldn't bear to embarrass Shen Chu.
So we had no choice but to let him go.
It may also be that his weight is not enough, so he can't keep people.
However, after Chen Chu left, they did not lose contact. Su Luoyue even bought him a mobile phone so that he could contact Chen Chu frequently, video call him, chat with him every day, etc.
In the beginning, we did contact each other frequently.
——But Chen Chu had just followed Xiang Xinghe abroad, and he needed to adapt to many things.
After I got used to it, there were a lot of things to do...and it was impossible to contact each other every day, after all, there was the international time difference.
What's more, later on, Chen Chu would often follow Xiang Xinghe everywhere...
They have even less contact.
But Chen Chu would often tell him about his experiences in various places, which countries he visited, what he saw, what he bought, what fun gadgets he had, what scenery he saw, who he met, and what interesting things happened...
As he listened, some ideas gradually came to his mind.
When he was able to travel abroad completely alone, he would go to the places he had been to, walk the roads that Shen Chu had walked, and see the cultural landscapes he had seen... He couldn't explain why, and he had never even talked about these things with Shen Chu.
He was alone, quietly strengthening his connection with Shen Chu.
He didn't want their relationship to stop at their childhood. When he didn't know whether Chen Chu would return to China, at least he had to do something, or in other words, he had to keep something.
Fortunately, his little fat baby decided to return to China and will stay in the country.
At that time, Xie Shiming thought that this would satisfy him.
But he was wrong.
Because now, he is becoming more and more dissatisfied.
Such a good Chen Chu, he really wants to keep him by his side, not only as a brother, but also as a more solid relationship...
"We'll study together in the evenings, and I'll help you shoot videos on the weekends. Didn't you say you've already decided on a candidate?"
"Well, it's confirmed. The other party has agreed to participate in this filming project. Sister Mu Rong is very efficient and has negotiated everything for me. I just need to wait for my second brother's team to arrive, and then they can help me install the camera at the other party's house."
Shen Chu lifted his cheek and said happily: "My eldest brother also said hello, we can install a few cameras inside the company."
Xie Shiming: "Is there anything special about the person you are looking for?"
"Um."
Shen Chu nodded: "The one who agreed to be filmed is a young lady, a graduate student from a prestigious university. You also know the benefits of Shen's, so there is nothing much to say about the work. The point is the family situation of this young lady——"
"She came to City B by herself to work in the north and currently lives in a small room of 5 square meters."
5 square meters.
Shen Chu knew how big the place was. It could probably only accommodate a single bed and a table, and they had to squeeze together.
Speaking of this, Shen Chu couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, the conditions at this young lady's home in the south are pretty good. At least they don't have to live in such a small place. And with her education, she can find a stable job if she returns home. I heard that her family has been asking her to go back, but she doesn't want to.
As for why he was unwilling, the other party was not willing to answer...
I just agreed to it because I wanted to earn more money.
"I've already got her contact information, and we can go look for that young lady together this weekend."
"good."
Xie Shiming nodded: "We'll go together then."
And call Qi Yuansi again.
but......
"you......?!"
"Why are you here?!"
Shen Chu stared at the child in front of him, feeling incredible——
"No, how did you know to come to this place?!"
Jian Yan crossed his arms and snorted, "Do you think you're the only one who would contact my brother?"
"So you're asking about Brother Jian Xing?"
Before the weekend, he did contact his uncle and brother Jian Xing, and talked about this matter.
"What did you say to Brother Jian Xing?"
Brother Jian Xing doesn't seem like the kind of person who would tell others about his affairs casually, not to mention that he has only met this kid twice.
So this kid must have said something to Brother Jian Xing, which made Brother Jian Xing tell him.
"If you don't tell me, I'll call and ask Brother Jian Xing right now."
Jian Yan curled his lips and said, "Last time at Grandpa Zhao's place, I heard you say that you wanted to film your work."
"I called my brother and told him... that you were going to prepare a work and wanted my help, but you were too embarrassed to ask. You had just returned to China and didn't know many people around you, so my brother..."
"So you got the information out of Brother Jian Xing, right?"
Shen Chu was a little speechless: "Then what exactly do you want to do here?"
Jian Yan was a little impatient, looking away: "Didn't I tell you, I'm here to help you——"
"Hey wait, I'm here to help too, I don't need too many people."
Qi Yuansi also crossed his arms and even compared himself with Jian Yan: "What do you call this? You came uninvited, right?"
"Come on, we have serious things to do, we are not playing around."
"If you want to cause trouble, be careful or we will tell your brother about it."
"I didn't mean to cause trouble!"
Jian Yan was like a rabbit that jumped up in anger. He glanced at Chen Chu, clenched his fists and retorted to Qi Yuansi: "I just want to come over, okay?! If he wants to refuse me, let him talk to my brother!"
"Why do they all have the same topic..."
The latter part of the sentence was said in a low voice, Qi Yuansi did not hear it clearly, he tutted, and was about to roll up his sleeves to speak again -
"Okay, let him follow."
Shen Chu patted Qi Yuansi's shoulder: "You don't know anything anyway."
Qi Yuansi: “???”
If you say that, I'll be so angry that I'll turn around and leave!
At the agreed location, not only did he wait for Qi Yuansi, but he also met Jian Yan. This was something Shen Chu didn't expect... He was also very surprised.
But he heard the last words Jian Yan said...
This probably made Shen Chu understand a little bit - why Jian Yan was somewhat hostile towards him.
Turns out he's just a little brat who's in love with his brother. Are you jealous?
And because of Brother Jian Xing, Jian Yan is also interested in this aspect?
Shen Chu bumped his arm against Xie Shiming and whispered, "Does this count as helping Brother Jian Xing take care of the child?"
As he was talking, the team members that his second brother had helped him contact arrived, and then the group walked towards a residential area - the young lady who agreed to take the photo was called Li Keran, and she rented a house in a residential area not far ahead. It was very convenient to take the subway, and it was considered to be in the city center.
So even if it is a 5-square-meter room, the rent is not too low.
It's just barely habitable.
So when Jian Yan walked in, he was completely stunned.
I guess I have never seen such a small room since I was a child. It is vertically long, with a single bed that is less than one meter wide, and a long table next to it, with notebooks and various sundries, even firewood, rice, oil, salt, and cooking pots and pans, etc.
Except for the lack of a bathroom, eating and sleeping can all be done in this small room of 5 square meters.
"How come... isn't there a big space and room outside?"
Xie Shiming glanced at Jian Yan: "That's the public area and where other people live."
"But... this isn't a whole house—"
"Do you understand sharing a house?"
Xie Shiming raised his eyebrows: "If you don't understand, you can check it online."
Jian Yan pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Li Keran next to him also didn't say anything and looked a little embarrassed.
The room was only 5 square meters and not enough space for many people to enter, so they just stood in the living room.
But it’s not quite accurate to call it a living room, because the public area outside can only be considered a corridor. The landlord has basically enclosed the habitable area of the apartment, so the remaining space has become a "corridor."
Qi Yuansi also scratched his head and looked around several times, but didn't say much.
Chen Chu glanced at Xie Shiming, feeling that Xie Shiming had some intention of confronting Jian Yan? He had not been like this before when he faced Jian Yan. Was it because of his previous remarks about "taking care of the child" that Xie Shiming was somewhat reluctant?
Then Qi Yuansi is also following, so it doesn’t matter if you bring one or two…
"that......"
At this time, Li Keran said hesitantly: "I should just do what I usually do, right?"
"Also, can I turn off the camera when I go to bed at night?"
The people in front of her were all younger than her, but Li Keran still seemed a little cautious. It was hard to believe that she had the courage to expose her life in front of the camera, and even took the initiative to find Mu Rong...
Shen Chu nodded: "Of course, we will protect your privacy, don't worry, sister."
"And the shooting period is not long, only about one or two months."
"Besides that, after the camera is set up, we won't appear in front of you. But if you want to go out during non-working hours, we will follow you and film you. The only thing is that you still have to do what you are supposed to do during the filming."
Chen Chu coughed lightly and slowed down his voice: "What I want is the truth. Sen*wan*organization* is not acting, so if you find out..."
"Well, we have the right to stop filming at any time."
"And you won't get any money then... well, not much money."
Li Keran couldn't help but smile. Although her smile was very faint, she really didn't think the words sounded unpleasant.
She could even feel that the young man in front of her was kind.
This made Li Keran feel a little warm in his heart.
"Thank you. Don't worry, since I agreed to the shoot, I will definitely do it as required. I have made it clear before."
"Besides work, I don't have anywhere to go, so I just study at home."
"Learn something?"
Qi Yuansi subconsciously said: "Sister, haven't you graduated?"
"Yeah, but Shen is too curly."
Li Keran said helplessly: "You don't know, my colleagues also learn various things in their spare time, such as English and other languages, or some professional-related things. I can't fall behind, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with them."
"oh oh......"
Qi Yuansi scratched his head: "That feels so hard."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Everyone is like this. After all, we are working hard in a big city."
"And while I'm still young, at least I'll try my best."
Shen Chu rented an empty room in the building where Li Keran lived as their "base point" for monitoring the surveillance cameras.
This way, if Li Keran goes out on weekends, they can always follow him. It's just not very convenient on weekdays because they still have to go to school. However, the eldest brother said that he would find someone to help him keep an eye on him, and he also cleaned up an empty office in Shen's. In addition, Li Keran basically stays at his workstation on weekdays and usually doesn't have other things to do, so Shen Chu can let go a little.
I set up the machine in a 5-square-meter room and also talked to several roommates in advance. After giving them some money, they all became very talkative.
Maybe people would just mutter behind others’ backs, “Kids from rich families must have a lot of money to burn.”
But once you get the money, things will be done easily, as long as you have no objections.
The camera was set up, and when they came out from Li Keran, Qi Yuansi and Jian Yan were both silent...
Maybe they all felt a little shocked.
Shen Chu looked back and couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.
Why don’t children from wealthy families eat meat?
Perhaps they had never seen such a habitable room before, and it was probably the first time they realized that there was such a habitable room.
All three views must have been impacted.
So Chen Chu has been abroad for so many years and has seen so many people and things. Every time he sees them, he tells himself over and over again that he is really lucky enough, and scolds himself over and over again for being stupid, for harping on so many unnecessary things before...
He obviously has many more people and things worth cherishing.
Fortunately, he can start over this time.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but stick to Xie Shiming, and when he looked over, I couldn't help but smile——
"You're really nice, actually."
Xie Shiming suddenly stopped, his eyes seemed a little hesitant, and turned to look at Shen Chu.
Shen Chu: “?”
"What's wrong?"
"Nice guy card?"
"ah?"
Xie Shiming frowned: "Don't say such things anymore in the future."
What? !
Don’t you want to be praised?
Chen Chu rolled his eyes and thought of what happened when Xie Shiming confronted Jian Yan. He looked back and saw Jian Yan walking obediently behind him. So he turned around and was about to whisper something to Xie Shiming when he saw Xie Shiming suddenly stop and look ahead with a frown.
