"Then tell me quickly, what are you going out for?"
Comrade Lao Du did not give Du Chen any time to think. As soon as Du Chen finished speaking, Comrade Lao Du asked the question.
"Dad, I'm going to look for Li Dewen. He has an employee who's good at tracking, and I want him to help."
Du Chen finally told the truth.
"Who is Li Dewen? Who are you following?"
Ren Surong asked Du Chen puzzledly.
"Wife, the mineral water we use is Li Dewen's property, and he just bought two second-hand vans from me. Did you forget? If you're following him, I guess he's Liu Duan from our unit, right?"
Comrade Lao Du first explained to Ren Surong, and then asked Du Chen.
"Well, I'm just trying to see if I can get hold of anything against Liu Duan."
Du Chen admitted his thoughts.
"Second brother, this is your dad's business, you don't need to get involved. Just study hard every day, and don't worry about other things. Your dad and I are the two adults here. It must be tiring for a child like you to worry about so much!"
Ren Surong persuaded Du Chen that most parents were the same. In their opinion, as long as their children went to school well and grew up well, they did not need to worry about other things.
"Mom, I'm not tired. This just happened to be a coincidence. We can just get this thing over with quickly so we don't have to worry about it every day. Dad, don't you agree?"
At the end, Du Chen asked Comrade Lao Du again.
"You have a point, but your mom also has a point. Okay, go quickly and come back soon, but don't do it again. Your dad is still healthy and energetic. You can just give us advice in the future, and I'll take care of the implementation! Be safe on the road!"
Comrade Lao Du gave Du Chen some instructions and told him to go out if he wanted to.
"Old Du, why are you fooling around with Du Chen?"
Watching Du Chen walk out of the store, Ren Surong said to Comrade Lao Du with dissatisfaction.
"It's not really a joke. He's a member of our family. If he wants to contribute to the family when he grows up, just let him do it!"
Comrade Lao Du persuaded Ren Surong.
"Do you think Li Dewen is reliable?"
Ren Surong was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, how often have you seen our second son suffer a loss?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Ren Surong in return.
"That's right, Xiao Ren, don't worry, Chenchen is a good kid, usually obedient and sensible. He's just a little sharp-tongued, but he still knows how to distinguish the occasion."
Old Ding also said to Ren Surong, "It should be said, but sometimes I envy Comrade Old Du. Both of his children are pretty good and capable of giving advice to their parents."
"Tsk, what do you mean Chenchen is a little bit bad-mouthed? Aren't you usually a bit careless with your mouth? You always like to tease Chenchen. You are already a grown-up, and you are always bickering with Chenchen. You don't act like an adult!"
Jia Xiaomin spoke up, targeting Lao Ding. He was worried that Lao Du and Ren Surong would be upset. Although the two families were already very familiar with each other, Lao Ding's comment about Du Chen being a bit harsh on others had Jia Xiaomin worried that they might have second thoughts. However, from this point of view, Lao Ding did have a tendency to be a bit careless with his words.
"Isn't it because our two families are too familiar with each other? That's why I sometimes speak without thinking. Lao Du and Xiao Ren, don't take it to heart!"
After hearing what Jia Xiaomin said, Lao Ding realized that he had said too much. He immediately apologized to Comrade Lao Du and Ren Surong embarrassedly.
"It's okay, we're one family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs!"
Comrade Lao Du said nonchalantly.
"Lao Du, I feel like you're taking advantage of me again!"
Old Ding always felt that this was strange.

"Brother Chen, you're here!"
When Du Chen came to the office, Li Dewen, Xiami, Kiki and Xiaofei were all sitting in the office chatting. As soon as Du Chen came in, Xiami, Kiki and Xiaofei stood up and greeted Du Chen.
Du Chen looked at the respectful people in front of him and felt very happy. He felt that his status had suddenly increased. He waved his hands vainly and said, "Sit down! Sit down!"
Li Dewen felt jealous and angry when he saw this. Even though he was their boss, he had never been so arrogant.
"Xia Mi, how long will it take for you and Xiao Fei to come over?"
Du Chen sat down on the sofa in a very elegant manner, and then asked Xiami and Xiaofei.
"Brother Chen, we came here around six o'clock. It just so happened that I had to come over to deliver water, so I brought Xiaofei along."
"Oh, have you eaten yet?"
The greetings from a few people just now made Du Chen inexplicably satisfied, and he took the opportunity to show some concern for his younger brother.
"I've eaten, Brother Chen."
"Du Chen, you came a little late today. Was there something that delayed you?"
Li Dewen felt even more sad when he saw Du Chen and Xiami asking and answering each other, and he quickly interrupted their mutual concern.
"Hey, don't mention it. I was about to come out when my parents stopped me. They interrogated me for a long time. In the end, I had to tell the truth and said that I came to ask your brother Li for help in tracking someone. Only then did my parents let me out!"
Du Chen sighed and said to Li Dewen.
"Du Chen, what did you say?"
Li Dewen's composure instantly flared up after hearing Du Chen's words. He was worried that Du Chen's parents would find out and not let him get involved. He and his younger brothers were the only ones there, and Li Dewen felt unsure. Although Du Chen never got involved, they always assumed he could figure out a solution if something happened.
"How is that possible? I just asked you to help me with something. You should keep your mouth shut about everything else and keep it a secret. Don't cause any more trouble!"
Du Chen said to Li Dewen and the others.
"That's good, that's good!"
Li Dewen said after taking a long breath.
"Brother Chen, we got it!"
Xiami and the others answered in unison.
"Xiao Fei, do you know why I came to see you today?"
Du Chen said to Xiao Fei.
"I heard Brother Li say he wanted to get some information. I don't know any more details."
"Let me tell you in detail!"
Hearing Du Chen's words, Li Dewen, Kiki, Xiami and others pricked up their ears at the same time, wanting to hear what gossip was going on.
"My dad is an employee of the living area maintenance section. I'm sure you all know this already. My dad has been contracting the company's repair shop, and now there's a new section chief..."
Seeing that everyone was staring at him with a desire to explore on their faces, Du Chen couldn't help but complain about them in his heart. Then he explained the whole story to them in detail and put forward his own ideas.
"Xiao Fei, do you understand your mission?"
Du Chen picked up the Jianlibao and took a sip. Every time Du Chen came here, Jianlibao was the standard drink, and Du Chen was used to it.
"I understand, Brother Chen. You're just following Liu Duan, right? And trying to find out some information about his illegal activities, right, Brother Chen?"
