chasing the dark

Chapter 216
When he arrived at the parking lot, Jiang Yu stretched out his hand: "Give me the key, and you can sleep for a while."

A smile immediately appeared on Ye Zhanzhou's face, he sat in the co-pilot, and while the little girl was buckling up her seat belt, he kissed her on the forehead.

"My daughter-in-law is really good at loving people."

Jiang Yu slapped him on the shoulder: "This is still in the game!"

If someone passed by and saw it, it would be a shame.

Of course Ye Zhanzhou didn't care about her gesture, and nestled himself in the seat happily: "Where can I do it, my own daughter-in-law..."

"It's not over, is it?" Jiang Yu interrupted him angrily, turned on the ignition, and started the car.

Xu Xu's studio is in a small two-story building near the outskirts of the city, with yards at the front and back.

When Jiang Yu went, she had just moved here not long ago.

After so many years, the small building still maintains its original appearance, but the trees in the yard are much taller, which shows that it has been here for some years.

The receptionist was a young woman, not the elder sister Jiang Yu knew before.

The woman claimed her surname was Zhou, and she was a nurse here.

"I'm Dr. Xu's friend. I just happen to be free today, so I'll come over to see her." Jiang Yu said to Nurse Zhou, "You tell her about Xiaoyu, and she'll know."

"Doctor Xu has a guest now, and it will be over in half an hour." Nurse Zhou looked at the time and showed a decent smile, "Why don't you go to the lounge first?"

She was talking about guests, but Jiang Yu knew that Xu Xu was treating people.

"Okay, then wait for Dr. Xu to finish, please tell her I'm here."

The lounge is next to the front hall, about [-] square meters. The whole room is warm-toned, equipped with a streamlined sofa, coffee table, and a few pots of green plants beside the bookshelf. The whole atmosphere gives people a relaxed, comfortable.

"It's much better than ours." Ye Zhanzhou whispered in Jiang Yu's ear.

Front-line police officers have a heavy workload and arduous tasks, especially special types of police such as criminal police and anti-narcotics police, who have to bear both physical and psychological pressure.In recent years, the Municipal Bureau and various sub-bureaus have set up psychological studios one after another, and all front-line police officers have to participate in psychological assessment every year.

After performing major tasks, they will also be called over for psychological counseling.

When Ye Zhanzhou came back from other provinces, he was counseled for almost a month, and finally passed the psychological assessment before returning to work.

Jiang Yu was noncommittal about this, and the leader talked about the tight budget all day long, so it was impossible for him to be willing to spend so much money on decoration.

Nurse Zhou, who was in charge of the reception, brought two glasses of lemonade, and she pointed to the bookshelf: "Here are the latest psychological books, you can read them casually."

At this moment, a small head poked in from the door: "Aunt Zhou, I don't know how to do this question."

It was a little boy of five or six years old, holding a colorful brochure in his hand.

Seeing other people in the room, the child politely bowed to the two: "Hello uncle, hello sister!"

"Hello, whose family do you belong to?" Jiang Yu asked casually seeing the cute child.

"Doctor Xu." Nurse Zhou replied on behalf of the child, she said and left, "Sit down, I'll go over and have a look."

Dr. Xu has a child?This sentence circled around his mouth, but Jiang Yu swallowed it back in time.

Thinking about it, when I was counseling her back then, although Xu Nuo was not married yet, she was already in her early thirties.Now that she is nearly forty years old, getting married and having children is nothing more than a normal thing.

On the contrary, she really said this sentence, which makes people feel strange.

"I didn't see it, you really like children." Ye Zhanzhou's expression was not very good.

Jiang Yu knew that he was worried about being called inferior again, so he smiled and said, "That's not true, I just think this kid is cute."

For children, Jiang Yu couldn't say whether he liked them or not.If it was a baby, she would be more than willing to tease it.Half a big bear child, let's forget it.

But just now, the child looked quite obedient, especially the clear and bright eyes.

There is only one wall between the lounge and the front hall, and the door is open. From here, you can hear the conversation between Nurse Zhou and the child.

Jiang Yu stood at the door and looked out, with a smile in his eyes unconsciously.

After a while, the child clapped his little hands excitedly: "I understand, thank you Aunt Zhou!"

He got off the high chair, turned around and saw Jiang Yu, and bent his eyes at her: "Sister, are you here to talk to my mother?"

It seemed that the child regarded them as the promised patients. Jiang Yu didn't explain, but put his hands on his knees and kept him at the same height: "How old are you?"

"Six years old."

"Then it's time to go to school this fall!"

"I'm already in first grade."

Nurse Zhou came over and touched the child's little head and said, "Tuan's birthday is in November, so he was supposed to go to school this year. But he is smart and moved a year earlier."

"It's awesome!" Jiang Yu straightened up and praised with his thumb.

Nurse Zhou looked at the wall clock on the wall and said, "It's almost time, I'll go up and see if it's over."

"Sister, what's your name?" He asked with a raised face.

"My surname is Jiang Mingyu." Jiang Yu took his little hand and wrote his name on the palm of his hand, "It's these two characters, do you know them?"

"Well, Jiang Fengyuhuo is right about Mianmian, right?" Tuo said proudly, "I will memorize this poem last year."

Jiang Yu praised from the bottom of his heart: "You are so smart!"

The child turned over the notebook in his hand and showed it to her: "This is my name Xu Jinliang, and 楉楉 is my nickname."

Following Jiang Yu's example, he wrote a word in her palm.

"Your name is Xu?"

"That's right, Dad said we are the descendants of Marquis Xiping. Sister, do you know Marquis Xiping? He is a great hero and a hero who founded the country." He patted his chest, "I want to be a hero when I grow up, so now I have to Study hard and you will be smarter and know more."

Ye Zhanzhou came over and asked with a smile, "Does being smart have something to do with being a hero?"

"Of course." He said logically, "I want to be an astronaut, and an astronaut is a hero."

"The selection of astronauts is very strict, not only academic qualifications are required, but also a strong body and psychological quality beyond ordinary people." Ye Zhanzhou squeezed his small shoulders, "It's not good to be as thin as you, you have to eat well, Can't be picky eaters."

"Tu, you..." Jiang Yu was about to ask something, but when she heard footsteps upstairs, she quickly changed her words, "Uncle is right, you need to exercise more, you understand?"

"Yeah. I know."

"What are you talking about?" Xu Nuo and Nurse Zhou came downstairs one after the other.

He jumped into his mother's arms: "Uncle said let me eat well, or I won't be an astronaut."

"Look, mom already said that, didn't she?"

"Well, I won't pick out carrots and cilantro anymore."

Xu Nuo smiled: "Hey, go do your homework."
