Chapter 1015 Actively Seeking Peace
Huo Cifeng sent Bai Xuqian to the gate of the villa and watched him drive away.
When the car was completely out of sight, Huo Cifeng took out his cell phone and sent a message to Chang Pu.
[This is so cruel! I feel so bad for my little Bai.]
Chang Pu replied quickly, as if he had been waiting for his message.
[Second Master Huo, please correct me, that's my house.]
Huo Cifeng rolled his eyes: [He's your own family, and you're willing to bully him like this.]
Chang Pu was reluctant, but he had no choice.
Bai Xuqian clearly cared but pretended not to, and his self-deceiving behavior forced him to resort to this last resort.
Provoking Bai Xuqian is actually quite risky.
Chang Pu was unsure, fearing that Bai Xuqian would really distance himself from him in anger.
But he was unwilling to maintain the current unclear relationship.
His wife took a risk, and if he won the bet, he would be the winner in life.
After losing the bet, he shamelessly went after her again.
It is absolutely impossible for him to give up Bai Xuqian.
Huo Cifeng couldn't tell Bai Xuqian's attitude. "He seems to be in a bad mood. I don't know what he'll do. If I were you, I'd say you shouldn't hold it in anymore. Take the initiative for once! Seeing you two arguing like this is driving me crazy."
Chang Pu was more anxious than Huo Cifeng, but at times like this, he had to remain calm.
He was waiting, waiting for Bai Xuqian to come to him.
A day passed, the doorbell of Chang Pu's house was quiet, and there was no response on the phone.
The big red lanterns hanging high in the residential area and the brilliant fireworks shooting up into the sky from time to time in the distance make the festive atmosphere particularly rich.
But Chang Pu's heart was as calm as dead water, and he was not affected at all by the hustle and bustle outside.
He stayed in Kyoto to wait for Bai Xuqian,
He thought Bai Xuqian would take the initiative to seek peace, but the facts were very different from what he imagined.
After all, I overestimated my charm.
Chang Pu packed his luggage and prepared to leave. If he stayed in Kyoto, he would not be able to help but want to find Bai Xuqian.
What to do after finding it?
He couldn't accept that Bai Xuqian was just his bed partner. He wanted more, he wanted to live with this person forever.
Chang Pu dragged his suitcase out of the apartment and drove away.
As the car drove out of the lower parking lot, a black car drove over from a distance.
Bai Xuqian hurriedly got out of the car and ran upstairs.
He came to Chang Pu's house and rang the doorbell.
But no one responded, and Bai Xuqian felt disappointed.
Is he late?
Chang Pu is gone!
When Huo Cifeng received Bai Xuqian's call, he was startled by his tearful voice: "Xiaobai, don't scare me! What happened? Did someone bully you? I'll take people over and teach him a lesson right now."
"Chang Pu..."
"What happened to Assistant Chang?"
"Chang Pu is gone!"
"What?" Huo Cifeng jumped up from his chair, knocking over the cutlery.
Bowls and spoons fell to the ground with a bang, startling the people around.
Huo Wenzhou frowned and looked at him: "What are you panicking about?"
Huo Cifeng didn't bother to explain to his elder brother. He anxiously asked on the phone: "Xiaobai, please explain clearly, what happened to Assistant Chang? What do you mean by leaving?"
Could it be that the person is gone?
Bai Xuqian sniffed and choked up, saying, "I went to his house to look for him, but he wasn't home. He must have left Jingdu and doesn't want me anymore."
"No, why did you go to see Assistant Chang today? What were you doing at home the past few days?"
"Think about how to coax him at home."
“…” The veins on Huo Cifeng’s forehead were bulging.
It’s amazing!
Chang Pu's encounter with Bai Xuqian was truly a disaster in his life.
"Wait, I'll ask my brother if he knows the whereabouts of Assistant Chang."
Huo Cifeng said he would ask Bai Xuqian, and he really did ask.
A few minutes later, Bai Xuqian received an address and a message from Huo Cifeng.
This is Assistant Chang's grandmother's address. He left Kyoto to spend the Spring Festival with her. You can wait a few days; maybe he'll be back after the Spring Festival.
Bai Xuqian couldn't wait any longer. He had already wasted two days. If he had come to see Chang Pu earlier, he wouldn't have come back empty-handed.
He was afraid that Chang Pu would leave Kyoto and never come back.
-
Chang Pu drove back to his hometown, and his grandmother was very surprised to see him.
The old lady came forward and pulled him to look left and right: "Why do you seem to have lost weight? Haven't you been eating well recently?"
"I ate well, grandma, look at my muscles."
Chang Pu changed from his usual cold attitude in front of his grandmother and became much more cheerful.
He lifted his clothes to show off his muscles.
"You're still too thin. You need to eat more."
Grandma took Chang Pu's hand and led him into the living room.
The old lady was very happy because her grandson hadn't been home for a long time. She was busy getting him food and drinks, fearing that he wouldn't have enough to eat.
"Grandma, please don't be so busy! I will stay at home for the next few days and spend the Spring Festival with you before I go back."
Chang Pu has been busy with work recently and hasn't been back to see his grandmother for half a year.
He found that his grandmother had more white hair and more wrinkles on her face.
Grandma is getting older!
Chang Pu held his grandmother's hand and said, "Grandma, please come back to Kyoto with me after the New Year."
"Grandma is used to living here. Your Grandma Wang next door is also alone, so the two of us living together will have someone to look after us. Don't worry, Grandma is living well here."
Chang Pu tried to persuade his grandmother many times to leave her hometown and go back to Kyoto with him, but his grandmother refused.
My grandmother is nostalgic. This is where she was born and raised. She has taken root here and wants to grow old here.
Chang Pujian couldn't persuade his grandmother, so he had to compromise: "Grandma, I will come back to see you often in the future."
"Boys have ambitions all over the world, so how can they just come home for no reason? Grandma knows you're worried about me, so don't worry! The housekeeper you hired comes to clean and wash clothes for me every day. I don't have to do any heavy work at home, so I'm happy and comfortable."
"It's not easy for you in Kyoto. Take good care of yourself. Seeing you healthy and happy, grandma is relieved. Don't just focus on work, it's time to consider your personal problems too."
Grandma advised earnestly: "When I am gone one day, you will have someone to accompany you."
Chang Pu smiled bitterly.
The person he wanted to be with didn't have him in his heart.
“It’s not easy to meet the right person, but life is long and you can always wait.”
"Don't just wait, take action. Opportunities don't wait for anyone. If you see someone you like, go after them."
Grandma looked at Chang Pu's face and said, "My grandson is so handsome, there must be a lot of people who like him!"
Chang Pu felt even more miserable.
What’s the use of more people liking it? Bai Xuqian doesn’t like it.
Grandma found that Chang Pu had been avoiding personal issues. Knowing that her grandson probably didn't want to talk about it anymore, the old lady didn't dwell on the issue.
"We can talk about love later. Grandma, go make something to eat now. My dear grandson must be hungry."
Chang Pu wanted to help but was pushed away by his grandmother: "You haven't tasted grandma's cooking for so long, let grandma cook today."
Chang Pu didn't try to stop her and just stood by and chatted with his grandmother.
After dinner,
Chang Pu watched TV with his grandmother.
The elderly have more regular schedules and don’t have much nightlife.
Grandma went to bed at nine o'clock in the evening. Chang Pu didn't want to disturb the old lady's rest and went back to his room.
But he couldn't fall asleep lying in bed, and the image of Bai Xuqian kept turning over and over in his mind.
The phone was silent, with no messages or calls from Bai Xuqian.
Knowing that he was going to resign and leave Kyoto, Bai Xuqian didn't react at all.
This means they don't want him anymore.
She gave up on him before she even conceived a child. She didn't want him, and she didn't want his child either.
Kick everything related to him out of your life.
How cruel!
The more Chang Pu thought about it, the more anxious he became. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
He waited until the morning and heard some noise in the yard, and he knew that his grandmother had gotten up.
Chang Pu got up, washed, and walked out of the yard to find his grandmother making breakfast.
Today is New Year's Eve.
The custom here is to eat rice cakes, which means that work and life will improve year by year.
Grandma was frying rice cakes and was surprised to see Chang Pu walk into the kitchen. "Why didn't you sleep a little longer? Is the bed too hard? I'll put another mattress on you later. It will be more comfortable and warm."
"Grandma, the bed is very comfortable and the house is very warm."
Chang Pu said: "The working hours are relatively fixed, which forms my biological clock and I don't have the habit of sleeping in in the morning."
He suddenly thought of the days he spent with Bai Xuqian. He would get up late every day and he didn't even want to go to work. He just wanted to stay at home with Bai Xuqian every day.
Thinking of this, I feel even more upset.
Bai Xuqian, oh Bai Xuqian, do you have a heart of stone? Why can't you warm me up?
While eating breakfast, Chang Pu thought of Bai Xuqian again.
Today is New Year's Eve. I wonder where Bai Xuqian is celebrating the New Year.
He is alone and should stay in Kyoto.
Is there anyone to spend New Year's Eve with him? Is there anyone to make dumplings for him?
The more Chang Pu thought about it, the more upset he became, and he seemed absent-minded while eating breakfast.
He didn't even hear his grandmother's question.
"Xiao Pu?" the old lady called out again, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you get enough rest? Why do you seem so dazed?"
Chang Pu came back to his senses: "No, it's okay! Grandma, did you want to say something just now?"
"Your grandmother Wang next door is alone, and I'm thinking of asking her to come over for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight."
"Then let's prepare some more food."
When Chang Pu came back, he brought back a lot of seafood, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits.
The ingredients for the New Year’s Eve dinner were all ready, and with Grandma and Grandma Wang, two old ladies, busying around, there was no need for him to get involved or help.
The two old ladies were talking and laughing, chatting about family matters.
Chang Pu stood by and couldn't say anything, so he walked out of the yard and took a walk nearby.
Not far from the gate of the yard is the main road, with people and cars coming and going.
Chang Pu walked into the supermarket and bought a few bottles of canned fruit.
I just heard my grandma and Grandma Wang chatting about it. They said they wanted to have some canned food to go with the Spring Festival Gala in the evening.
He came out of the supermarket carrying a shopping bag and vaguely saw a figure flash by.
The man was very fast and disappeared at the intersection before he could react.
Chang Pu frowned.
Looking towards the intersection, there were only passers-by coming and going.
Chang Pu tightened his grip on the shopping bag, then turned and walked towards the yard.
When I was about to reach the door of my house,
He stopped and shouted in a low voice: "Come out!"
A person slowly emerged from the corner of the wall behind, walked a few steps and then stopped, standing not too far away or too close.
Chang Pu turned around to look at him, suppressed the urge to walk over and hug him, and asked coldly, "Boss Bai, what a coincidence."
Not a coincidence at all. Bai Xuqian curled his lips. He had been wandering around the neighborhood all night looking for Chang Pu, asking many people before he finally found out the specific address of Chang Pu's grandmother's house.
But he didn't have the courage to knock on the door directly, so he could only wander around.
When he saw Chang Pu out buying things, he could only follow him secretly and did not dare to approach him to talk.
He was already very cautious, but he still got discovered unexpectedly.
In fact, it’s a good thing to be discovered, because he can beg for shelter shamelessly.
Bai Xuqian kept his head down. Chang Pu couldn't tell his attitude, so he frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
I came to see you! Bai Xuqian thought so in his heart, but said: "I'm here to travel nearby."
Chang Pu's expression instantly turned cold, "Then you can play slowly."
He turned around and just as he took a step forward, he heard a series of footsteps behind him.
The next second,
His waist was held tightly.
