Chapter 168 Night Watch
Zhang Kun shook his head, his expression serious: "No, not only do I not think you did anything wrong, on the contrary I admire you very much!"
Zhang Kun's words surprised Li Xu, "Admiration? What do you admire about me?"
"You have a grudge against Shen Mei. If it were someone else, they might not tell the truth in order to protect themselves or to avenge Shen Mei. But you didn't choose to lie for these two reasons, which naturally makes me admire you very much!"
After Zhang Kun finished speaking, Li Xu looked up at him. Her eyes were full of emotion.
How lucky she was to have met a man like Zhang Kun.
He is the one who can truly understand her and resonate with her.
"As for whether the other party will retaliate, you don't have to worry about that. Now we live in a society ruled by law. Would he dare to do anything to you? Besides, as long as the police don't say anything, who would know that it was you who provided the clue?" Zhang Kun stepped forward, hugged Li Xu, and comforted her in a low voice.
However, although he spoke with great confidence, his expression was also very serious when Li Xu couldn't see.
Li Xu finally felt at peace in Zhang Kun's arms.
She nodded: "That's fine, then I'm relieved."
After a moment, Zhang Kun whispered, "Since I've already collected the keys and I've asked for a day off today, I'll give up my dormitory and move in here. I can also make breakfast for the kids in the morning."
Li Xu had no doubts about it. She was naturally very happy that Zhang Kun could come.
"Okay, then you can move in. I'll close the store early tonight and help you clean up."
Seeing that it was almost time for the children to go home from school, Zhang Kun went home and made lunch for the children.
In the afternoon, he went to the company and used Li Xu's tricycle to move all his belongings from the company dormitory.
The house is a second-hand property and has the most basic furniture.
Everything was available, including a bed and a mattress. Zhang Kun could move in right away.
In the afternoon, when the children got out of school, Li Xu closed the store.
After dinner, Li Xu took the children over to clean the house for Zhang Kun.
After all, the house had not been lived in for a long time, and there was dust and cobwebs everywhere.
Zhang Kun and Li Xu were mainly responsible for cleaning, while the children were responsible for looking around the house.
The house has three bedrooms. If I clean everything, it will probably take a whole day.
So Zhang Kun and Li Xu focused on cleaning the master bedroom and the living room.
The only places Zhang Kun could use were the master bedroom and the living room. As for meals, he could just eat at Li Xu's place.
We are almost a family now, so naturally we have to eat as one.
Although they only had to clean two places, the workload was still quite heavy. Zhang Kun and Li Xu were sweating profusely in the middle of winter.
Ji Ziang looked at him and asked curiously, "Uncle Zhang, why don't you just live in our house? It's so close anyway, it would be great if you could live in our house!"
He was not at all distant with Zhang Kun.
"Because Uncle Zhang and your mother haven't married yet, they can only live together after they get married!" Zhang Kun explained patiently to Ji Ziang.
"Really? Then you and mom should get married as soon as possible. I want you to live in our house!" Ji Ziang said hurriedly.
Zhang Kun laughed when he heard this: "You have to ask your mother about this matter."
Li Xu's face was a little red, but it was not obvious under the light.
She whispered, "Soon!"
This was the first time that Li Xu opened up in front of the children, and Zhang Kun's eyes lit up. He looked at Ji Ziang happily and said, "Ziang, what do you want to eat? Uncle Zhang will buy it for you tomorrow!"
Although Ji Ziang didn't know why Uncle Zhang was so happy, when he heard about food, he immediately said, "I want to eat a lot of things, biscuits, soda, candy..."
He counted several things with his fingers.
Zhang Kun waved his hand and said directly: "Okay, I'll buy them all tomorrow!"
Ji Ziang didn't expect Zhang Kun to be so generous. He looked at Li Xu tentatively, and when he saw that she didn't object, he cheered happily: "Yeah, Uncle Zhang, you are so nice."
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Ji Ziang and shook her head helplessly.
I guess if Ji Ziang was spotted by human traffickers, he could be lured away with just a piece of candy.
Several people stayed in Zhang Kun's house until after nine o'clock, and then Li Xu took the children back.
Before going back, Zhang Kun sent them to the door and whispered, "If there is anything, just call me. Lock the door when you go to bed at night. If there is a bottle, put a bottle behind the door."
The master bedroom where he lived was very close to the door.
If Li Xu shouted over there, he would probably be able to hear it.
Put a bottle behind the door. If someone pushes the door, the bottle will fall to the ground and the sound will serve as a reminder.
Hearing Zhang Kun's words, Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then reacted: It turns out that Zhang Kun is not without fear, nor is he without worry!
Thinking of this, she whispered, "I know, don't worry."
Ji Yuanyuan stood between the two people. Although she didn't know what happened today, she subconsciously felt that Uncle Zhang's sudden move here might be related to the car accident.
She had long felt that it was somewhat dangerous for them to provide clues to the police.
After returning home, Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang went back to their room to do their homework.
Ji Yuanyuan came into the space and wanted to come out after finishing her homework.
But thinking of the conversation between Li Xu and Zhang Kun at night, she hesitated for a moment and decided to stay in the space.
She chose to catch up on some sleep in the space in the first half of the night and keep watch in the second half.
The time inside the space is faster than the time outside. Ji Yuanyuan slept for a full ten hours in the space.
When I woke up and came out, it was just before twelve o'clock.
She turned on the small table lamp beside the bed and took out the copy of Dream of the Red Chamber to read.
She planned to read until about five in the morning, and then go to the space to rest for a while.
This way, she won’t be too tired!
After all, she is still young and growing!
She had already read Dream of the Red Chamber once, so she was not as focused the second time.
She turned the pages one by one, quite quickly!
Time passed little by little, and even the air at night became quiet.
I don’t know how long it had been, but suddenly there was a ding-dong sound outside.
Ji Yuanyuan's whole body trembled violently. Before going to bed, her mother put a bottle of milk behind the door.
If someone opens the door, the milk bottle will fall to the ground and make a ding-dong sound.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly entered the space and took out a knife.
Then she opened the curtains to allow the light from the room to penetrate downstairs.
After doing all this, she leaned against the door and listened carefully to the noise outside.
Before going to bed, everyone's door was locked from the inside.
If the person outside wants to enter the room, it will definitely take some effort.
Sure enough, rustling sounds were soon heard outside.
