The Dragon Soul of the Strongest Special Forces

Chapter 564 Memories of the Past

The store sign was damaged in several places, and the stainless steel frame was exposed, but Ye Xiao could still read the words on the sign. This was the small commodity store that he and his father used to manage together.

After so many years, why do you still stay here?
The location here is relatively good in Qingyang County, and it is a nearby commercial street, so it is impossible to have the problem of not being able to rent out.

"Little Leaf?"

Just when Ye Xiao was wondering why the shop was closed and why the shop sign hadn't been replaced, an uncertain voice came from behind Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao led Long Jingyun's voice, followed the voice to look behind him, and saw a well-dressed middle-aged woman in a down jacket standing on the street, looking at him with surprise and surprise.

"Aunt Cheng!?"

Ye Xiao also looked at Cheng Li behind him depressedly.

"It's really you, Little Ye Zi." Cheng Li stepped forward, looked at Ye Xiao and said, "I didn't dare to recognize you at first, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have grown so tall, and you are even more handsome."

Cheng Li noticed Long Jingyun standing beside Ye Xiao, and asked Ye Xiao, "Is this your girlfriend?"

"Hello, Aunt Cheng." Long Jingyun greeted Cheng Li.

"Little Ye Zi, your girlfriend is really pretty." Cheng Li said in praise.

"This Aunt Cheng is the landlord here, and she owns many stores here." Ye Xiao introduced to Long Jingyun, "She used to take good care of us, and sometimes she couldn't pay the rent because of the purchase price, and she wouldn't hurry. "

"It's not easy for your father to pull you up alone. There is nothing difficult in anyone's family. These are trivial matters."

Cheng Li waved her hand, and asked Ye Xiao: "When you and your father went to Skogginska to buy goods, we heard that there was an accident. We all thought that something happened to you two."

"It was true that something happened in Skogginska back then, and then my father and I went to the capital."

Ye Xiao didn't explain to Cheng Liduo either, and asked, "What's going on with Aunt Cheng's shop? Why is the old shop sign still there?"

"After you and your father disappeared, I originally planned to dispose of the contents and sublet them out."

Cheng Li explained to Ye Xiao: "But when I contacted the next shop, someone came and paid for this shop."

"Someone took it down?!"

Cheng Li's answer surprised Ye Xiao even more.

Cheng Li nodded, thinking of something, opened the bag in her hand, took out a key from it and handed it to Ye Xiao, saying: "After that person closed the shop, he asked me to keep the key, and said that if there is any Today, when you or your father come back, I will give you this key."

"Since then, that person has never been here again, and this storefront has been put on hold. Many people have asked who owns this storefront and want to rent it out, but I can't contact that person at all, and I can't contact you father and son. , so there is no way to call the shots.”

"The person who sold the store, did you tell him his name?" Ye Xiao asked Cheng Li after receiving the key from Cheng Li.

"He didn't say that, he only said his surname was Zhao." Cheng Li recalled, "Although he is wearing plain clothes, judging from his walking posture, he should be a soldier."

The surname is Zhao, and he is a soldier. The answer is ready to come out who bought this store.

Zhao Tianyu!
Besides Zhao Tianyu, Ye Xiao never expected that there would be a second soldier named Zhao who would come to sell this store.

But why would he do this?
This was a question Ye Xiao couldn't figure out.

"Now that the key is given to you, Aunt Cheng's task is also completed."

Cheng Li had to go to other stores to collect rent, and after handing over the keys to Ye Xiao, she didn't stay any longer.

"Why do you think Chengying secretly sold this shop?" Ye Xiao turned to Long Jingyun and asked, with Long Jingyun's intelligence, she might be able to guess Zhao Tianyu's intentions.

But this time Ye Xiao was disappointed.

Long Jingyun shook her head, and replied, "Chengying's thoughts are really hard to guess. I guess you have to ask him in person to find out."

Since he couldn't figure it out, Ye Xiao stopped guessing, opened the shutter door with a key, and walked into the shop with Long Jingyun.

The furnishings in the shop have not been changed, they are still the same, even the tumbler that Ye Xiao used to practice boxing is still in the original place.

It's just that all the things on the shelves have been cleaned up.

Although the doors and windows are usually closed and no one comes here, there is still a layer of dust on the shelves, cash register and tables.

"If it wasn't for the Kogginscha incident, my 15th birthday would be three days after I got back from Kogginscha."

Ye Xiao looked at the shop that remained the same before him, and said to Long Jingyun, "I've been looking forward to drinking the chicken soup stewed by my dad, but..."

Long Jingyun shook Ye Xiao's hand in the pocket of his down jacket as a comfort to him.

Coming to this place where I grew up and lived in the past will indeed bring back a lot of memories, and these memories will inevitably hurt Ye Xiao some things that he doesn't want to think about.

Turning around in the shop, Ye Xiao led Long Jingyun out from under the shutter door, and locked the shutter door again.

Since Zhao Tianyu took down the shop and kept the shop as it was, Ye Xiao didn't intend to sublet the shop.

Now, I have no shortage of rent for subletting the shop.

After leaving the commercial street, Ye Xiao took Long Jingyun to the place where he used to live, the old family courtyard of a state-owned factory.

The old family courtyard is some distance from the commercial street, it takes about an hour to walk there, and now the road is covered with snow, it takes longer, Ye Xiao and Long Jingyun can only take a taxi to the old family courtyard.

"In the past, I would run to open the store every day with a five-kilogram sandbag tied and a ten-kilogram backpack on my back."

Sitting in the air-conditioned taxi, Ye Xiao said to Long Jingyun: "Run to the store to have breakfast, and then go to school. After school, I will practice boxing and push-ups in the store. At night, I will close the store door Close it, tie a sandbag and run back with a heavy backpack, 360 days a year, except for my birthday, there is no one day that is interrupted. Not to mention the wind and rain, even if there are knives in the sky, the training is not allowed to be interrupted of."

This kind of training is nothing if you think about it now, but to Ye Xiao at that time, it required him to do his best to complete it.

The taxi stopped in front of the old family courtyard, Ye Xiao paid the fare, opened the door and got off.

After Long Jingyun got off the car, Ye Xiao immediately grabbed her hand and stuffed it into his pocket.

"You used to live here?" Long Jingyun looked at the old family courtyard in front of her and asked Ye Xiao.
