situation
Boy friend?
Shen Chu was stunned.
Boy friend? !
"Brother...Xie Shiming, you are here, what are you talking about?"
It's rare that I stutter when I speak.
Shen Chu even looked at Xie Shiming nervously.
From Xie Shiming’s perspective, he could see Shen Chu’s eyelashes trembling slightly.
His tone couldn't be any slower: "Don't you like men?"
"I thought Uncle Xiang and Brother Jian Xing were like that, you should be able to accept it..."
"They are... but that doesn't mean I only like men..."
Shen Chu refuted stutteringly. In fact, he didn't know whether this was a rebuttal or not. It was just——
"Why do you ask me if I want a boyfriend right away?"
"What if I want to find a girlfriend?"
Xie Shiming lifted his eyelids and looked at Shen Chu: “Have you thought about it?”
"ah?"
"Have you ever thought about finding a boyfriend or a girlfriend?"
"I......"
I haven’t even thought about it!
Suddenly asking this question...
"Don't you want a reward? Then you can think about it now."
Shen Chu opened his eyes wide: “No, are you really going to find a boyfriend for me?”
"But I'm not even an adult yet!"
"It's illegal for minors to date!"
Xie Shiming looked at Shen Chu, hummed, and nodded.
"Okay, got it."
Shen Chu: “?”
What do you know?!
"So, think about it, dear."
Xie Shiming patted Shen Chu’s head.
Shen Chu: “…”
"People are only urged to find a partner when they are in college, but you are urging me to do so before I even graduated from high school..."
Chen Chu looked away and muttered, "You told me to find a boyfriend right away..."
It’s not that I don’t feel anything, or I don’t realize anything.
But I wasn't sure. I didn't dare to be sure what it was. I always felt that it was vague and unreal.
I didn't even dare to ask...
"Ah! You're so annoying!"
Shen Chu pushed Xie Shiming: “I still have to prepare for the mock exam, I don’t want to!”
"Don't push me to get married!"
Shen Chu finished: "......"
"No, I mean..."
Xie Shiming couldn't help but laugh: "Have you thought about getting married?"
"...It's not okay to say that I'm bald!"
"Okay, let's think about the exam first."
Xie Shiming rubbed Shen Chu's head again with good temper: "Let's start when we get home tonight."
"......"
If I had known, he wouldn't have said it.
The filming went smoothly, except for this small episode in the middle -
As a result, he still has to study at night...
Chen Chu came out of the bathroom wiping his hair. The weather was still hot. After being outside all day, he wanted to take a good bath when he came back.
But the bathroom was steaming hot, and the steam was making him feel choked.
If it wasn't inconvenient to come out wearing only underwear, I really want to take off all my clothes, dry them and then put on clothes, otherwise my body will be damp and it will be uncomfortable to put on clothes...
But I have to wear it.
So a few days ago, Shen Chu found Shen Mingzhou and asked him if he had an old man's shirt.
Shen Mingzhou: “…”
His father's expression seemed to be about to break apart...
But he finally got the old man's shirt, it was newly bought.
It's loose and breathable, perfect for wearing after taking a shower.
Add a pair of big shorts underneath.
Perfect!
It was these two days that Shen Shuo and Shen Sui came back. He took a shower and went downstairs to drink water. When he met them, the expressions on their faces were a little indescribable.
When he video-called Shen Yi last night to confirm that the team would come to help, his second brother's expression was full of disgust, and he even asked him to throw away the clothes.
Humph, they don’t understand at all!
What does it matter if it looks good or not? The important thing is to be comfortable!
Much more comfortable than any silk pajamas.
Also durable and wear-resistant.
It can be pulled to the looseness he wants, perfect.
So after wiping his hair, Shen Chu pulled his clothes to let out the heat, walked to the window, and looked down.
Xie Shiming is in the garden downstairs.
It’s really strange. Every time he took a shower these past two days, he said he wanted to go out for a walk. Is it hot too?
However, there were shade trees in the back garden, so it was indeed quite cool at this time, but there were still a lot of mosquitoes, and Shen Chu was bitten several times.
I can’t think about it. It makes me itchy when I think about it.
There was actually a red lump on his belly.
Asking people to repel mosquitoes in old houses often doesn't work...
While Shen Chu turned around to find anti-itching medicine, he dripped Xie Shiming——
[Didn't you say you needed to review? I've finished my shower, come over here. ]
After a while——
【knew. 】
[Just keep it brief next time.]
【oh. 】
You're asking for a lot!
Less than a minute later, the person came up.
When he pushed open the door, Shen Chu was lifting up his loose clothes and lowering his head to wipe the small red spot on his belly.
He sat on the bed, but he didn't sit properly. He had one leg raised up, probably because he had just applied medicine to the mosquito bites on his leg, and his trouser leg was lifted up.
But I was wearing shorts...
I don’t know how the mosquito bit me, but there is a small lump on the inside of my thigh near my knee.
The red color is particularly eye-catching against the milky white skin, and because of the ointment just applied, there is an inexplicable moist luster...
Going further up, the exposed legs are also milky white.
Even whiter.
Xie Shiming looked away: "Second brother asked someone to buy you a lot of pajamas, which are also very breathable and cool. Why don't you wear those?"
"But this was also bought for me by my dad, I can't let it go to waste."
It was quite quick to apply the medicine. Shen Chu had already let down the hem of his clothes. He lowered his head and tugged at it again: "This dress is made of pure cotton."
“The more open, the more open.”
"Um?"
Shen Chu didn’t hear clearly, so he grabbed his clothes and looked up at him: “What did you say?”
"I said, don't live in a dormitory if you get into college."
"ha?"
How did the topic jump here?
Shen Chu tilted his head: "I noticed that you always say some weird things recently."
"Um."
Xie Shiming nodded and sighed softly: "Chu Chu, I have been very patient."
"......"
Can't understand!
What does this have to do with anything?
Next, Shen Chu was busy as hell.
I go to school from Monday to Friday, go to Li Keran's place on weekends, and study at night. Except for sleeping, my whole day is so "fulfilling".
And for some reason, when he went to Li Keran's place, Qi Yuansi and Jian Yan were even more active than him?
"She studies until late every day."
Jian Yan suddenly said, "I hardly go out, don't socialize, and don't order takeout."
“The food is simple too.”
"But isn't the job at Shen's okay? The salary at Shen's isn't low, after all, it's hard to get in."
Jian Yan's tone was even a little confused: "Why does she have to work so hard?"
It's already better than many people's jobs.
These words were said to Shen Chu.
Although Jian Yan himself might not have realized it, every time he spoke, he was speaking to Shen Chu.
Xie Shiming glanced at Jian Yan, and took over the conversation as before -
"How can I survive in City B without hard work?"
"Not everyone is born with no worries about food and clothing."
"This situation is just a small microcosm of this society."
"So is it meaningful for us to do this? Is it useful?"
Jian Yan looked at Xie Shiming, then at Shen Chu: "Will this change anything?"
Shen Chu blinked: "I don't know, I'm not sure, I'm not clear."
"......"
"you--"
"Hey, look!"
At this time, Qi Yuansi pointed at the monitor and suddenly said, "Sister Ke Ran is going out? Then we should follow her quickly?"
This is the first time Li Keran goes out on weekends when he is at home in these days.
Qi Yuansi instantly started to rub his hands together, as if he was about to do something extraordinary——
"Walk?"
"Wait, I should just go answer the phone."
Chen Chu stopped the person and pointed at Li Keran in the picture: "Sister Keran always brings anti-wolf spray to work. This is still on the table."
"Ah... okay."
Qi Yuansi took another look and found that he was indeed going to answer the phone.
He didn't notice that it was Li Keran's phone that rang.
After all, Li Keran rarely answered the phone before.
Apart from work, life is actually quite boring.
But for some reason, Qi Yuansi and Jian Yan were able to sit still here and had not said anything that showed they couldn't stand it anymore.
Even when there is a next person to be photographed, they want to tag along.
"I think after we finish filming, we can—"
“I don’t want to go back!!”
Suddenly, there was a fierce voice coming from the monitor, as if there had been a sudden outburst.
Qi Yuansi was almost startled.
What's going on?
But Li Keren's figure could not be seen on the monitor, only her increasingly intense tone and increasingly loud voice could be heard.
——"I have a job here, why do you keep asking me to go back?!"
"What do you mean you should get married and have kids at this age?"
"Who will support me? Who will give me money if I don't work?!"
"Why do I have to rely on men?"
Shen Chu and Qi Yuansi looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Logically speaking, they shouldn't do "unnecessary" things, but Li Keran's tone sounded a little broken, as if he had been enduring for a long time.
But this should also be considered Li Keran’s privacy?
Filming is allowed, and the photographers will be asked to maintain their original lives, but generally speaking, issues involving privacy will be avoided.
Not everything has to be edited into the shot.
Shen Chu's focus is just to restore Li Keran's basic daily state.
But the current situation...
"She probably doesn't want anyone to pass by."
Unexpectedly, Jian Yan was the first to speak: "I think it's better for us not to disturb her for now."
Come to think of it, it should be so.
It's really not a good time to disturb Li Keran...
No one likes to be seen in an awkward position by others.
What's more, they are not that familiar with Li Keran and are much younger than Li Keran. If they go there now, it will only add to the awkwardness.
Chen Chu thought, at least when this sister was willing to talk to them, they were willing to be a listener.
But Shen Chu didn't expect the accident to happen so quickly...
On the day of the mock exam, Shen Chu and Xie Shiming had just arrived at school when they received a call from Shen's.
It was the person from Shen's who helped him watch the surveillance camera.
The other party said that Li Keran was missing.
When I saw Li Keran didn't come in the morning, I thought he had taken a leave.
But after asking the human resources department, there was no record of leave.
Later they tried to contact Li Keran, but they couldn't get through to him...
"What should we do? Can you contact Li Keran?"
"What happened to her? Why didn't she come to work for no reason and why can't I contact her?"
"...But we have already called the police, but we don't know what the situation is now!"
When they heard this, Shen Chu and Xie Shiming looked at each other and thought of a reason at the same time——
Shen Chu turned around and was about to rush out.
"Chu Chu! Do you know where to find her?!"
Xie Shiming reached out and grabbed Shen Chu first.
He and Shen Chu looked at each other and sighed——
"I'm not telling you not to go, but do you know where to find her?"
"Otherwise, running away like this would be a waste of effort."
Chen Chu was actually quite calm: "When I confirmed that it was Sister Ke Ran, I asked Sister Mu Rong to give her a questionnaire. I wanted to understand Sister Ke Ran's overall situation first, so that I could compare it with what happened after the filming... It asked where Sister Ke Ran usually went. We can go there to look for her."
"You can also send a copy to the police, but the company should have sent one, right?"
"But I want to go and find out for myself."
"During this period of time, I can see that Sister Ke Ran is not in a good mood, but..."
Chen Chu pursed her lips: "We should have talked to her earlier. We can't be afraid of offending her just because it's her privacy-"
"At the beginning, nothing will happen."
Xie Shiming's voice was full of soothing power: "I'll go with you to find it, okay?"
"With me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
On the day of the mock exam, the two of them asked for leave early in the morning, and Qi Yuansi couldn't have been unaware of that.
After knowing it, I asked about the situation and then decided to go with them.
"You have a responsibility, so do I!"
"Otherwise, do you think I can take the exam with peace of mind?"
Qi Yuansi naturally couldn't calm down to take the exam, and it was okay to miss this mock exam, but Shen Chu...
He tilted his head to look at the person, but found that Shen Chu had no hesitation or hesitation at all.
Even Xie Shiming didn't say anything.
Not even mentioned.
After thinking for a while, Qi Yuansi patted Shen Chu’s shoulder: “You are still the same as when you were a child.”
I didn’t say anything else.
Afterwards, the three of them asked for leave and explained the situation. Teacher Xiaohua didn't say anything, but just told them to remember to contact the police and not to act rashly.
As for Jian Yan, after thinking about it, he decided not to contact the other party.
After all, it's a mock exam, we can't call people out specifically.
It’s not too late to talk about it after they find the person.
Shen Chu exported the form, contacted the person who was looking for him at Shen's, and prepared to go to different places to look for it first.
In fact, Li Keran didn’t have much space to fill in.
After all, she doesn't like to go out normally, so there are only a few places she goes.
And looking at the places filled in, basically all of them are places where you can see the scenery.
I probably go there when I want to relax.
The process of finding someone is actually not that difficult.
But the reality is a bit tricky.
——Chen Chu and his team found Li Keran first.
In the outer ring, Li Keran once rented a high-rise building with 30 floors in total, and she rented the 30th floor.
Because this frequently visited place is very special, Shen Chu also asked.
At that time, Li Keran’s answer was very simple. When he lived here, he would often go to the rooftop to get some fresh air, and it became a habit after a few times.
After moving away, I would occasionally go there to look out.
Because I feel like I can release my emotions.
So the first place Shen Chu chose was here.
He hoped not to meet Li Keran.
But when I climbed up to the roof, I still saw it.
