Chapter 55
"Someone knew I was there and asked you to find me?"
"Well, actually, he's been looking for me for quite a while, but I've been quite busy lately, so I kept delaying it. From the moment I saw the photo, I knew that person was you, but I just couldn't believe it."
Dalinzi's brows were furrowed in an instant. No one knew what he was thinking, but he seemed to be in a complicated mood.
"Did he show you my picture? When was it taken?"
"It was taken when you were working in the store."
Zhang Zhilin's body stiffened for a moment, with some disbelief and unconcealable panic.
“He came to see me.”
"Well...even though you may not like it, it's indeed for you every time he goes there."
"Since he came to see me, why didn't he take the initiative to talk to me? Doesn't he know that I have been waiting for him?"
Just now Dalinzi said that he was afraid of Ji Zeyu, so why is he waiting for him now?
Does he have a split personality?
"No...that's not what you just said. You said you thought he was a pervert and wanted to stay away from him."
"When did I ever say my dad was a pervert?"
Zhang Zhilin was slightly stunned and raised his head.
Now it was Wei Ge's turn to be confused.
"What your dad?"
"Wasn't it my dad who asked you to come to me?"
Who understands the feeling of helplessness after chatting for a long time and realizing that we are not talking about the same thing at all?
"I don't even know Uncle Xing. I'm talking about Ji Zeyu. He's Uncle Xing's friend... He said he has a crush on you..."
Before Wei Ge finished expressing his feelings for Ji Zeyu, Zhang Zhilin spoke first.
"You know him. You've taken a photo with my dad. My dad's name is Zhang Xing."
"Uncle Zhang?"
Wei Ge was a little confused. He quickly took out his cell phone and found Zhang Xing’s WeChat.
"Is this Uncle Zhang?"
"Um."
The fate between people seems to be a very magical connection, just like Wei Ge, Zhang Xing and Zhang Zhilin.
He had never connected them together, after all, the "good friend" he met thousands of miles away turned out to be his roommate's father.
This incident itself sounds incredible.
"So when you saw the photo of us last time, you knew I knew your father."
Wei Ge suddenly remembered that one day when they were having dinner together, his cell phone fell to the ground, revealing a photo of him and Zhang Xing.
His expression was a little strange.
Wei Ge always thought he was very delicate and sensitive, but now he thought he was too rough and didn't even notice anything strange about Zhang Zhilin.
"My dad seems to like taking photos very much." Zhang Zhilin suddenly spoke, and his hand holding the cup tightened slightly.
After saying this, he looked up at Wei Ge, "But you know what? From childhood to adulthood, my father and I have never had a single photo together. So when I saw your photo, besides being surprised, I was mostly envious."
I envy that even someone who only met my father once can have memories of him, but he doesn't.
"Do you and your uncle communicate a lot?"
"No, we hardly contact each other." Zhang Zhilin took out his mobile phone and opened his chat box without any hesitation.
He pinned Zhang Xing to the top of the page, but when he clicked on it, there were only a few words.
The last time they communicated, he came back and sent a message to Zhang Zhilin.
"Dad will be home tomorrow night. What gift do you want?"
Zhang Zhilin replied: "No."
Wei Ge hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Zhang Zhilin. "Don't you think... your response to your uncle was a bit cold? I'm not saying your answer was bad, I mean you can express your thoughts completely. When you said no... you definitely didn't mean disgust, right?"
He could see that Zhang Zhilin longed to communicate with his father, but perhaps there was something separating them from each other, or perhaps there was a misunderstanding between them.
"I think he works very hard to earn money. I am now independent and can buy what I want. If he has money, he doesn't need to save it. He should treat himself better."
Zhang Zhilin's eyes darkened. The last time he saw Zhang Xing returning home, the man's hands were covered with calluses, his skin was tanned and red, and even a little sunburned.
"Then you can tell him what you're thinking. Maybe you can even accept some gifts from him sometimes? Your father feels indebted to you. He's just as bad at expressing his feelings as you are, so he can only do so through these actions. In fact, he told me... he doesn't know how to communicate with you."
Zhang Zhilin was stunned for a moment, and there seemed to be a visible light flashing in front of his eyes. "What else did he say?"
"He said he felt he owed you something. He actually wanted to be good to you, but he was afraid you'd blame him after all these years. You both really love each other, right? Why don't you find some time to sit down and have a good chat?"
"His birthday is in a few days, and I've been working really hard lately to buy him a massager. Actually, I want him to come back so our family of three can be reunited. I'm graduating soon, and I'll be able to support our family."
Wei Ge looked at Zhang Zhilin who was mumbling across the table, stretched out his finger and hooked it, "Give me the phone."
Zhang Zhilin didn't know what he was going to do, but he inexplicably felt that he trusted Wei Ge.
He handed the phone to Wei Ge, who opened Zhang Xing's dialog box and typed a sentence.
"Dad, I heard the shortbread in Shenzhen is delicious. Please bring me some next time you come back."
Wei Ge typed the message but didn't send it, and handed it to Zhang Zhilin.
"You can start with a few words and ask him to do something for you. Uncle Zhang, you've always lacked an opportunity like this."
Zhang Zhilin looked at Wei Ge, nodded, and pressed the send button.
Zhang Xing on the opposite side had just finished driving his car and was walking towards the hotel.
The phone rang with a special reminder tone, which he had set specifically for his son.
Zhang Xing's heart trembled. Over the years, this voice had never sounded as actively as it did today.
He opened his phone and saw those words that seemed so simple that they couldn't be simpler, and his eyes suddenly became wet.
Zhang Xing wiped his hands and said, "Okay, Dad will take care of it for you."
-
Xing Zhao sat on the sofa, watching Wei Ge excitedly recount his experiences today, but he was also a man with a strong sense of contract.
He skipped the fact that Zhang Zhilin was the girl that Ji Zeyu liked.
He directly told the story that an older brother he had met before turned out to be his roommate's biological father.
When Xing Zhao was listening, he originally thought that the way Wei Ge spoke was very cute, but the more he listened, the more he frowned.
Why does it feel like he knows nothing about what Wei Ge is talking about?
Xing Zhao tilted his head to look at Lao Qin, "Lao Qin, do you know where he met this big brother?"
Lao Qin was scared and stepped back.
"I don't know. The young master doesn't tell me about this."
Lao Qin knew it, and even his mobile phone was filled with the reporting videos sent to him by Zhang Xing.
Only Xing Zhao's blinded world was achieved.
Lao Qin winked at Wei Ge, signaling him to be more careful with his words, otherwise his travel so far to learn how to make things would be discovered.
A beating is inevitable.
But Xing Zhao saw Wei Ge and Lao Qin exchanging glances.
"Lao Qin, you've been busy all day, go home and rest."
Old Qin froze for a moment, feeling that the young master was in trouble.
There's no way, no way to help. Xing Zhao can't bear to hit the young master, so the young master is on his own.
Only when Lao Qin closed the door did Wei Ge realize something was wrong.
Run away.
Wei Ge turned around and wanted to go upstairs, but was stopped by a man's big hands on the stairs.
Xing Zhao took advantage of the situation and brought Wei Ge into his arms.
The man's chest was pressed tightly against the child's back. Wei Ge felt his body getting hotter and hotter, but not as hot as the touch behind him.
"Uncle Xing...what's wrong with you?"
"I think you are not being well behaved. You are hiding something from me."
Xing Zhao's chin was rubbing Wei Ge's neck gently. Wei Ge felt itchy and shivered subconsciously, but Xing Zhao hugged him tighter.
"I... I'll treat you leniently if you confess, and severely if you resist. I'll tell you everything you want to know."
Wei Ge gently broke free from Xing Zhao, turned around, put his arms around Xing Zhao's waist, and looked up at him eagerly.
I wonder if this look will make Xing Zhao have other thoughts?
Xing Zhao didn't say anything, he just picked up Wei Ge and walked towards his room.
"Where are you going..."
"Come to my room and sleep with me tonight."
Wei Ge's heart was beating like a drum. He hugged Xing Zhao's neck tightly, feeling nervous and expectant.
But he forgot that there was a man of steel standing opposite him, whose thinking was not as fancy as his.
Xing Zhao slept with Wei Ge in his arms all night.
But it’s not like nothing was done.
Before going to bed, Xing Zhao kissed Wei Ge's forehead twice.
Said good night.
Such a pure and loving uncle.
Wei Ge felt sad, but he didn't say it.
Life passed day by day. Wei Ge was still several years away from graduation, but he had already found time to intern at ARKI.
I thought that going to internship would allow me to spend more time with Uncle Xing, but when I got there, I found that it was difficult to even see him.
Xing Zhao has her own office floor, and even the senior executives can't see her easily, let alone Wei Ge, who is an intern.
Wei Ge went to the cafeteria to eat his work lunch and approached the person in charge.
"Director, will our big boss also come to this cafeteria to eat?"
The supervisor opposite was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.
"How is that possible? The boss is a gifted person, not even on the same level as us. I've been in the company for so many years, and I've never spoken to him, let alone eaten in the same cafeteria."
Uncle Xing is so majestic outside, but at home he chases him and wants to hold him to sleep.
As expected, when people get to know each other better, they become unlike themselves.
Wei Ge was thinking about it when he received a message from Zhang Xing on his phone. It was a 60-second long voice message.
"Xiao Wei! I didn't expect you and Lin Zi knew each other! What a coincidence! I'm back in Lushui. My son wanted to eat some shortbread, so I brought him a lot and asked him to take it to school so you can share it with you! I've taken a long vacation to be with Lin Zi this time. Come to my house when you have time. My cooking is delicious, so feel free to order whatever you want."
Wei Ge laughed while listening to the phone, and felt that there was joy in Zhang Xing's voice. The relationship between the two seemed to be closer than before.
As soon as he finished replying, there was a commotion in the cafeteria.
"Who is that? So handsome, is he the new internet celebrity signed by the company? I don't think there has been any artist with this style before."
"I don't know. It would be nice if he could work on the same floor as me. It would be a pleasure to watch."
Wei Ge raised his head and looked towards the crowd's gaze.
It’s Xing Zhao.
If these people knew that the person they were waiting for at this moment was the boss, they would probably regret what they said.
Who would want to work with a boss who would be scared to the point of fainting at any moment?
However, it seems that Xing Zhao's image in the company is still very mysterious, and no one knows him at all.
Xing Zhao seemed to have noticed Wei Ge as well, and walked straight towards him regardless of everyone's gaze.
