I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 410 [Where is the Cat]

Obviously, my son used to say that I was not an easy person to get along with.

Since the midterm exam, Lu Zhengyi often heard some things from him. It seemed that they had some interactions and became deskmates. It was no longer like before when his son only paid one-sided attention to him.

My son is very proud that he is the only boy in the class who can talk to her.

His excitement was even more exciting than when he was elected as the class monitor.

But it is also possible that Lu Yongan was sure of being elected as the class monitor, and deep down he had no hope at all about talking to this girl.

It was under such a gap that his emotions fluctuated so greatly.

However, this was his son's own social interaction, and Lu Zhengyi did not interfere too much. It was not about him making friends as a father, and he did not plan to use his child's class as a social circle to expand his own network like other people did.

How to make friends and what kind of friends to make are all his own business. They are things he needs to learn and consider.

"I plan to invite Chu Zhi to visit our home in a few days."

While eating, Lu Yongan mentioned this to his parents. "I told her before that we have a large theater at home, and the movie-watching experience is better than that in the cinema. She was very interested and said she wanted to come and see it during the summer vacation."

"..."

Zhang Xueming looked at her husband beside her subtly. What was going on? Was he getting to meet his parents already?
No, what did she miss during the time she was at work?

"Yes, you can, but do her parents agree?"

Lu Zhengyi hesitated, "Will they come as guests?"

Logically speaking, at this age, elementary school students don’t need to consider this aspect too much when getting along with their classmates.

But it seems to be quite rare for female classmates to visit male classmates' homes.

"Of course, her parents dote on her." Lu Yongan explained, "I think they will, is that okay? Let them come to our house as guests."

Lu Zhengyi looked at his wife beside him.

Then, under his wife's puzzled gaze, he nodded and said, "Of course, it's OK. It's OK for classmates to visit each other openly."

After getting his father's reply, Lu Yongan happily went to contact his classmates.

"No, if we start this, other parents will also come to visit us, which will be very troublesome." Zhang Xueming was puzzled. "Didn't we agree not to use children's lives as a social event?"

In addition to the one-year-old birthday party and the full-month party, these were the ones that Lu Yiyong insisted on organizing when he was still alive.

He invited a lot of people, some of whom were his friends in the film and television industry, and some of Lu Zhengyi’s friends.

But later he left, and Lu Zhengyi, as the "head of the family", gradually lost this habit and focused more on family gatherings.

Sometimes on An An’s birthday, the whole family would have a meal together.

But sometimes, they leave the elderly at home and the three of them go out to play by themselves.

Regarding this point, although Zhang Xueming paid great attention to An An's training and work matters, she also agreed. She did not want too much business to be mixed into these special moments.

"Before, when I went to pick up my children, other parents would often come over to talk to me and hand over their business cards."

"Out of courtesy, we have to accept it and say a few words back, but we have also encountered a few cases where people have come to us to seek cooperation."

"We have always said to the public that we should not bring work into our lives or children, but now that you agree, doesn't that mean..."

She said helplessly that by then there would definitely be some people who would come to her house claiming to be her classmates' parents.

In this kind of school, there are definitely many people who dare to seize the "opportunity".

"Just don't talk about work."

Lu Zhengyi said helplessly, "We won't talk about work. We'll just have a simple meal and let the two children meet. I'll take care of it."

Zhang Xueming naturally wouldn't be at home.

Summer vacation is only a privilege for children, not for adults. You still have to go to work.

……

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm Chu Aimin."

"I'm Chuzhi's mother, Qiu Li."

A few days later, the Chu family came as promised.

Just like what Lu Zhengyi saw at the school gate at the beginning, the girl’s parents were very doting on her, and this time her parents came together.

but……

His eyes fell on the things the parents were holding: wine, cigarettes, and all very valuable items.

"My name is Chu Zhi, I'm from Jiangcheng, nice to meet you."

But soon, Lu Zhengyi's attention was attracted by the little girl beside them.

The little girl introduced herself very seriously, then stretched out her hand and greeted everyone like a little adult.

Lu Zhengyi was a little confused.

But he still squatted down politely, looked at her at eye level, and stretched out his hand to shake hers.

"Hello, Xiao Chuzhi."

Lu Zhengyi spoke gently, and his amiable appearance surprised Chu Zhi's parents beside him.

In their previous impression, he was a serious-looking man.

After all, apart from watching TV, they have only seen her at the gate of their children's school.

And every time I see it, I feel like staying away from it.

"You, hello."

Chu Zhi stuttered as she stared blankly at Lu Zhengyi who was squatting in front of her, and then at the two people's clasped hands in a trance, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Ugh."

After a while, she pursed her lips and burst into tears.

"Are you scared by me?"

Lu Zhengyi looked at the front helplessly, staring at himself blankly, his eyes had turned red unconsciously, like a frightened child.

"This child..."

Chu Zhi's mother stood by awkwardly, and quickly squatted down to comfort the child, "Zhizhi, uncle is brother An An's father, and he is a great director."

Although, both his appearance and aura are indeed a bit scary.

However, Chu Zhi continued to shed tears and stared at people eagerly.

But at least I didn't make any sound, and the comfort from my mother still worked.

"Dad, you are too."

Lu Yongan was standing next to them, looking somewhat helpless.

But on the first day the classmate came to visit, he was scared by his own father.

Is your father that scary?
He looked at his father seriously and carefully, but there was nothing to be afraid of.

Is it because you have been exposed to it since childhood and have been watching it for a long time?
As the scary one, Lu Zhengyi stood there, scratching his head in embarrassment.

However, his actions were like this, and his eyes remained calm. He watched thoughtfully as Chu Zhi, whose tears were gradually stopping under her mother's comfort, cried.

"Classmate, let's go to the movies."

Lu Yongan stood by and comforted her, "The theater is in..."

Before he could finish his words, Chu Zhi had already pursed her lips and walked upstairs first.

She didn't feel at all strange as a guest visiting for the first time.

It was like a little girl who had lost face and wanted to find a place to run away. Chu Zhi's father had a stiff face, "This child is really spoiled, why is he running around."

"It's okay, the theater is on the second floor." Lu Zhengyi waved his hand, signaling his son to follow him quickly, "He looks like an outgoing child, too."

"Let's go have tea. Come to think of it, this is the first time that An An has invited classmates to her home."

"It seems that Chu Zhi has been educated very well by you as parents."

Chu Zhi's father said modestly, "No, no."

In the past, when Lu Zhengyi sat down to talk with people, it was mostly about work.

Rarely, caring about other people's lives.

But occasionally, some jokes would be made during the conversation, making the overall atmosphere of the conversation relaxed.

When chatting, don’t have too many negative emotions. Everyone should actively output optimistic and positive content, and infect each other to move forward together.

At that time, he usually talked to Zhang Yuming, Yu Li, Chang Zhengwei and others...

After marriage, Lu Zhengyi gradually talked less about work and chatted more about family matters with others.

Occasionally with parents, occasionally with visiting relatives.

There are no more jokes in conversation. When people reach a certain age, they can no longer make witty remarks easily. Their words should have more weight and appear serious.

He would care about other people's marriages, the health of the elders in the family, and feel sorry for the death of some people.

Now that they have been parents for some time and Lu Yongan has already started primary school, when Lu Zhengyi communicates with his peers, he tends to focus more on his children.

Care about your own children's school affairs, learn about the other's children's school affairs, and share each other's educational experiences...

Lu Zhengyi chatted a lot with Chu Zhi's parents without realizing it.

Gradually, Chu Zhi's father and mother were no longer as reserved as when they first arrived at their home, and began to talk about more in-depth topics.

"This is actually the first time I've seen Zhizhi have a male friend."

As soon as Chu Zhi's father opened his mouth, he was stunned.

Why did I bring up this kind of thing with someone I had just met?

"I don't know why, but she has been very resistant to boys since she was a child."

"After she was born, she started crying when any boy held her except me, so Zhizhi might not have been scared by you, Director Lu, but she was just resisting."

"Later, whether she was playing with other children in the park or going to kindergarten, she only played with girls."

Since he had already spoken, he would not consider it any more. He explained that his daughter's behavior just now was not directed at Lu Zhengyi.

"Many people have such thoughts, and they all have certain reasons, either due to some psychological factors or trends. I remember that some people now think such things are trendy, and they think it's cool and unique to do them, but she is different."

"Zhizhi didn't have any reason, so we were very worried. We took her to the hospital for some tests, but all the data was normal. There was no real gender identity disorder caused by genes, hormones, etc."

"So this time, we as parents are very happy that she is willing to take the initiative to make friends with a boy. After all, if she continues like this, when she grows up..."

He spoke in a somewhat euphemistic way, saying that some things concerning sexual orientation are not uncommon in today's society.

“It sounds like a very distressing thing indeed.”

Lu Zhengyi nodded. From some details about them as parents, he could see that this couple attached great importance to Chu Zhi.

"As a father, there is actually very little I can do for Zhizhi."

"You should have learned in advance about the family situations of the other children in An An's class. In fact, our family should be considered the most ordinary among all the children."

"I am a minor official in Jiangcheng, and Chuzhi's mother is a full-time housewife who takes care of me and Zhizhi's life."

He spoke helplessly about his situation, while Lu Zhengyi looked calm, "This time, because of the job transfer, I came to Beidu. Probably because of good luck, our Zhizhi was assigned to Peiying Bilingual Primary School."

"If it weren't for this relationship, given our family's financial situation, it would be difficult for her to afford such a good school..."

As we were talking, the topic got a little off track.

Logically speaking, Lu Zhengyi should have stopped it at this time and brought the topic back to the child.

And Zhizhi's father should also go along with it, knowing that Lu Zhengyi did not want to mention some business matters because of the child.

But Lu Zhengyi didn't say anything.

He listened silently and roughly understood the situation of their family.

Business, of course it’s business.

When he saw the Chu family coming to his house in such a solemn manner and carrying such expensive gifts, he knew that something like this would happen.

The specific business content is mainly about children.

Chu Zhi wanted to be a child star, or more precisely, an actor.

"This child has been interested in this area since he was young."

Lu Zhengyi did not say a word. The Chu couple seemed to be singing a duet. After Chu Zhi's father finished talking about the family situation, Chu Zhi's mother began to talk about how talented her daughter was.

"She has loved watching those movies and TV series since she was little. She would sit in front of the TV and imitate the people on TV, and she could act very well."

"And when she was in kindergarten, she represented the kindergarten and participated in the Jiangcheng TV Spring Festival Gala, dancing with the children selected from other kindergartens."

"She is very talented in dancing. No, she is very talented in art."

Chu Zhi's mother talked for a long time, constantly recommending her daughter to Lu Zhengyi.

It is not easy to become a child star. Their family does not have any connections in this regard. But now there is such an opportunity. One of the best directors in Tang Country, no, in the world, is right next to them. They want to seize this opportunity.

"I see."

Lu Zhengyi nodded politely, “But this matter still depends on the situation.”

He spoke ambiguously and did not give a positive answer.

At about eleven o'clock, Lu Yongan's grandmother came back from buying groceries. Since her retirement, she has been learning to cook. Today, Lu Zhengyi was entertaining guests, so she was the one preparing lunch.

They had another meal together, and it was not until around three o'clock in the afternoon that Lu Yongan reluctantly saw his classmates off.

"It looks like you guys are getting along well."

Lu Zhengyi looked at his son helplessly, "What movie did you watch?"

"Old corpse in the mountain village."

Speaking of this, Lu Yongan turned his gaze away from the car that was moving away, "She is a girl, but she actually likes to watch this kind of movie."

"Really."

Lu Zhengyi replied casually, "After all, horror thrillers are also a hot topic now. Many people will give priority to this type of movie when choosing a movie."

"Besides, her parents are quite doting on her. If they don't discipline her strictly, then it's still okay for her to watch some videos above the censorship limit."

"Just like you."

He looked at his son. At his age, he shouldn't be exposed to such films.

"correct."

But soon, Lu Yongan's expression became a little confused. "She just asked me where our cat is. How did she know that we have a cat? I remember I didn't tell her."

Since childhood, Lu Zhengyi specifically reminded me not to tell others about strange things I saw at home.

He has always followed it, so he should...

Lu Zhengyi didn't say anything, just stood there calmly.

"It's a bit fast."
