As daylight suddenly appeared, a cell phone ringing woke up the two sleeping people. Ji Huaichuan struggled to pull his hand out from Zhang Qiling's restraints and took the phone.
Ji Huaichuan thought it was someone's call, but when he looked closely, it turned out to be the alarm clock.
“…” It seemed like he had set the alarm for 7 o’clock, and it was already 9 o’clock.
Zhang Qiling was lying quietly on the bed. Ji Huaichuan took a glance and knew that he was staying in bed again.
Zhang Qiling got up only after Ji Huaichuan got dressed and washed up.
"You're such a grown-up and still staying in bed." Ji Huaichuan laughed at Zhang Qiling.
"You too." Zhang Qiling replied.
Ji Huaichuan: (?_?)
In the afternoon, Ji Huaichuan took Zhang Qiling to their new house. The water and electricity in the house had been laid and installed. Ji Huaichuan went up and down the stairs to look around. He liked the small terrace on the second floor of the house the most.
Ji Huaichuan leaned over the balcony railing and shouted to Zhang Qiling who was sitting in the yard, "Zhang Qiling, we have a home in Hangzhou now!"
Zhang Qiling looked up at the person with the bright smile and curled his lips slightly. Yes, they have a home.
In the evening, Ji Huaichuan and Zhang Qiling decided to go find Wuxie to play. The two of them wandered around for an hour before they found the way, even though they were only two streets away from Wushanju.
"This is Wushanju. Let's put up a plaque for our door. People here all like to hang things on their doors."
Ji Huaichuan looked up at the plaque hanging on the lintel. The words on it were like floating clouds and startled dragons, with elegant postures. There were also two lanterns hanging next to it.
Zhang Qiling nodded. As long as Ji Huaichuan liked it, he had no objection.
At this time in Wushan Residence:
"Liar, all of them are liars!"
Wuxie was curled up on the sofa, hugging a pillow, and looking angry.
Wang Meng, who was sitting at the computer desk nearby, touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Boss, I used four numbers to call the number you gave me, but none of them worked."
"We agreed to meet in Hangzhou to talk, but when I got back he ran away and I couldn't get through on the phone. These elders of mine are more unreliable than the last!"
Seeing his boss angry, Wang Meng tactically drank a few sips of water, then rushed in front of Wuxie.
"Boss, you see, Wushanju hasn't had much business these days since you were away. But I wiped all the goods in the store to make sure there wasn't a speck of dust. I also upgraded the computer, and..."
Wu Xie raised his hand and interrupted Wang Meng, "Okay, got it. I'll send it in two days. I won't forget it."
Wang Meng smiled triumphantly and returned to the computer desk. As soon as he sat down and looked up, he saw two people standing at the door, one with long gray hair and the other wearing a hoodie and a hat.
"Boss, a guest is coming." Wang Meng said hurriedly.
Wu Xie stood up weakly and shouted towards the door, "Wu Shan Ju is closed today!"
After shouting, he threw himself back heavily onto the sofa and continued to be depressed.
Then I heard a very familiar voice, "I heard that Wushanju has fake goods and wants to compensate the owner?"
Wuxie suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked out, "Xiao Chuan'er, brother, why are you here?"
Seeing Wuxie's excited face, Ji Huaichuan laughed and said, "We bought an apartment after arriving in Hangzhou. I figured it wouldn't be far from your place, so I stopped by to visit."
"Okay, come and play with me when you have nothing to do next time. It's just me and Wang Meng here, so it's more lively with more people. Come in and sit down!"
Wuxie pulled Ji Huaichuan and Zhang Qiling into the house. As soon as he stepped through the door, Wuxie stood there embarrassedly.
"Look at me, I've been so busy looking for my second uncle these days that I forgot to clean the house."
As far as the eye can see, there are a few empty bottles, a brown leather notebook, tissues and an ashtray on the small coffee table.
The red instant noodle bag was also lying casually on the ground, there were some broken porcelain pieces that had not been cleaned up at the door, and the cushions on the sofa had long been rolled up into a ball. Wang Meng was standing aside and looking at them awkwardly.
"Our boss isn't usually like this..."
"Oh yes! I'm not like this usually!" Wuxie said with some lack of confidence.
Ji Huaichuan looked at Wuxie with a smile in his eyes, and then said, "Then let's clean up together?"
I swear to God, Ji Huaichuan is definitely curious about doing housework. In the previous world, they had hired nannies at home, so he didn't have to clean the house himself. In this world, he first had servants from the palace, and then he had attendants when he went to Yao Qiong's place. Then he met Zhang Qiling, and he had to rely on Zhang Qiling to take care of him, a person with a full-level disability, not to mention housework. Zhang Qiling didn't let him touch it at all!
Wuxie nodded happily, and then started to get busy. Ji Huaichuan took a broom and under Wang Meng's nanny-level guidance, he finally knew how to sweep.
Ji Huaichuan excitedly took the broom and swept all the visible ground in the house. After sweeping, Zhang Qiling picked up the broom and swept again, and finally all the garbage on the ground was swept away.
...
"That's all. My third uncle was even planning to use a video recorder to trick me. He said what happened next had nothing to do with me, but I was involved. No matter what he said, I want to know the final truth." Wuxie sat on the sofa, supporting his head with his hands.
Ji Huaichuan pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Wu Xie, your Third Uncle is right. If you wear a mask for too long, you can't take it off. They've been searching for the ultimate truth, but they don't know it's long gone. Neither the Wang family nor 'it' will ever find the answer, so you don't have to dwell on it. Sometimes the truth isn't important."
As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. Ji Huaichuan took out his cell phone and saw that it was Shen Tingsi. Inexplicably, Ji Huaichuan didn't want to answer the call, but he still answered it.
"What? How could this happen?"
After hanging up the phone, Ji Huaichuan began to doubt his life. He didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.
Shen Tingsi said on the phone that he had lost his house key which he had left in the shop. In addition, a man with skills very similar to Zhang Qiling appeared in Banai and might be related to the Zhang family. Also, Hei Xiazi was missing.
Ji Huaichuan had originally wanted to give up, but now that Hei Xia Zi was missing, he had to go look for him. If he was related to the Zhang family, it might affect Zhang Qiling. He couldn't just ignore it. Even if he lost the house key, he had to go look for him.
Ji Huaichuan thought that the house key was lost on purpose because of Shen Tingsi. He didn't believe that given the dangerous situation in Shen Tingsi's shop, anyone would risk their life to go in and look for something without accurate information. This old man was always causing trouble for him. A flash of annoyance passed through Ji Huaichuan's eyes.
"What's wrong? What did you say on the phone?" Wuxie asked curiously.
Ji Huaichuan said in a gentle voice: "I have to go to Banai next. It is not convenient for me to bring Zhang Qiling with me. Let him stay with you for now and wait for me to come back to pick him up."
Wu Xie nodded in confusion, "Okay, little brother, just leave it to me."
