veteran legend

Unexpectedly, Chu Yan's first impression.

This house is not big, with a usable area of ​​about [-] square meters. It has a standard layout of two bedrooms and one living room. The interior decoration has a light simple European style, and the color is mainly white. The house is not big, but it is very warm.

Chu Yan's surprise came from the cleanliness and tidiness of the room. He knew that girls like to be clean, but he didn't expect Jiang Xiaoran to love cleanliness so much.

Since the first day he met Jiang Xiaoran, he has seen clearly the character of this dazed little girl, dazed but not sloppy, sleepy all day long as if she never wakes up, love to sleep is a must, but anyone who loves People who sleep late are rarely diligent, and Jiang Xiaoran is obviously a big exception.

Although this little girl likes to sleep in and eat, but the house is clean and tidy. The living room is very simple. There is a large beige sofa. Put a lot of snacks.

TV, refrigerator, air conditioner, etc. are not missing, they are placed reasonably, and the cleanliness makes Chu Yan feel a little ashamed. In front of the sofa is a about [-]-inch LCD TV.

Looking at Jiang Xiaoran, who was sleeping on the sofa, Chu Yan couldn't help but take a step to appreciate the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom in detail.

"I really didn't expect how you came here all these years alone." Chu Yan said, his eyes fell on the background wall behind the LCD TV in the living room. On the glass partition on one side of the background wall, there was a photo frame , the photo in the photo frame is Jiang Xiaoran and her parents. The background seems to be the Ferris wheel of Nanshan Disneyland.

Chu Yan knew that Jiang Xiaoran's father passed away, and her mother remarried into a wealthy family, but he didn't know why Jiang Xiaoran's mother remarried, and whether she still cared about Jiang Xiaoran after the remarriage, but now the answer seems to be ready , In this house, Jiang Xiaoran only has her mother in this one photo, and the rest of the photos are photos of her and her father, which intuitively explains some problems.

Jiang Xiaoran will still sleep for a while. What happened yesterday was a big blow to her. This kind and confused little girl may have never encountered such a thing. Fortunately, the matter did not develop to an irreversible step.

Holding the key that Jiang Xiaoran threw on the tea table, Chu Yan opened the door and went downstairs. He wanted to take a look around the community and get as familiar with the environment here as possible. In the future, he would definitely come here.

Most of the people living in Luofeng Garden Community are elderly people, and few young people come to live here, because when it was first built, it was positioned as a warm retirement home for the elderly, so the greening and entertainment facilities in the community They are all complete, of course, the necessary living facilities are also very rich.

When he came to the supermarket at the gate of the community, Chu Yan walked into the supermarket with a thought, and then went straight to the vegetable and meat sales area. He wanted to have lunch here, and have a lunch made by himself with Jiang Xiaoran.

As soon as this idea appeared, it became extremely strong, so Chu Yan bought a piece of beef, a Wuchang fish and some vegetables in the supermarket and returned to Jiang Xiaoran's house.

It was almost noon, and Chu Yan looked at Jiang Xiaoran, who still had no signs of waking up, and walked into the kitchen with a smile. In the kitchen, the vegetables he bought had already been washed, and the Wuchang fish had been marinated. All that was left was to do it. did it.

After stuffing the rice, Chu Yan turned on the gas stove. He had a warm smile on his face after not cooking for a long time. The oil in the pot gradually heated up. Chu Yan fastened his apron and picked up the shovel beside him.

With the sound of vegetables being thrown into the frying pan, the aroma of green onions and garlic being exploded in the frying pan overflowed. Jiang Xiaoran, who was lying on the sofa in the living room, also moved her small and lovely nose lightly at this moment.

"Eh? Braised Wuchang fish? Cumin beef? Celery? Mushrooms?" As the smell in the kitchen became stronger and stronger, Jiang Xiaoran, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes, and his nose kept twitching. Some greedily inhaled the fragrance of vegetables wafting in the living room, their saliva almost flowed out unknowingly, and the muttering in their mouths became louder and louder.

"Okay done! I haven't done it for a long time, and I don't know if my skills have regressed." Putting the last dish of stewed vegetables with mushrooms on the plate, Chu Yan clapped his hands and untied his apron, looking at the four dishes and a pot of soup in front of him, satisfied nod.

"Hey..." Just as Chu Yan was admiring his work, there was a strange voice behind him. He turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Xiaoran who was drooling and looking at him with bright eyes... The sound of the dishes in front came from her stomach.

"Are you awake? Hurry up and help me, big brother will accompany you to have lunch." Chu Yan smiled and brought the dishes to the table in the restaurant. Jiang Xiaoran did not forget to reach out and pinch a piece of cumin beef Putting the shredded beef into his mouth, he only breathed out after it was so hot, but when the beef was put into his mouth, the little dazed eyes became extremely energetic, and the sleepy eyes that were always dazed all the time became sparkling.

"How is it? How does it taste?" Chu Yan filled Jiang Xiaoran's bowl with half a bowl of kelp soup, and then asked with a smile.

"Delicious! Brother! The dishes you cook are so delicious!!" Jiang Xiaoran picked up the soup and took a big sip, then quickly answered Chu Yan's question, and then buried himself in the meal. Chu Yan didn't ask anything. He just nodded to answer. As for his mouth, he was busy eating and had no time to talk.

The meal was quite warm. After the meal, Chu Yan wanted to stand up and clean up the dishes, but was stopped by Jiang Xiaoran, "Brother, let me come. You have worked hard to cook."

Looking at Jiang Xiaoran clearing away the dishes and then busy in the kitchen, the smile on Chu Yan's face was meaningful. A little girl living alone, independence, self-reliance, and taking care of herself are the first things she has to learn.

Half an hour later, Jiang Xiaoran came out of the kitchen, had a delicious lunch, and after cleaning up the dishes, the eyes on his small face returned to the hazy state again.

"Brother, your cooking is really delicious." Jiang Xiaoran sat on the sofa, hugging a cartoon pillow. She usually needs to take a nap after lunch, and today should be no exception.

"If you like it, Big Brother will come over and make it for you often." Chu Yan smiled and said to Jiang Xiaoran, Jiang Xiaoran smiled cutely, and the two began to chat.

Time passed by, although Jiang Xiaoran decided to skip work all day today, and Chu Yan also hoped to spend as much time with her as possible, but a phone call from Mo Xiyao came over, and the two brothers' brief meeting on the sofa chatting meeting That's it.

Leaving Luofeng Garden, Chu Yan rushed to Silver Palm immediately. It is now three o'clock in the afternoon, and Silver Palm has opened for an hour. Mo Xiyao is in the office on the third floor. Opposite her is a plainly dressed short-haired woman. Next to the child and the girl, sat a middle-aged woman with a tense expression.

"Mr. Chu, you are here, Mr. Mo is waiting for you up there." When Chu Yan opened the door and entered Silver Palm, Tina walked over and said with a smile at the first time, although she would call Chu Yan Big Brother Chu in private, Mo Xiyao It's Sister Mo, but during working hours, she will still address her more formally.

Nodding at Tina, Chu Yan stepped up to the third floor. As soon as he entered the office, Chu Yan saw Mo Xiyao looking at the two people opposite her with a strange expression. This expression is really indescribable. She said she was angry. There is one thing, I am happy, and there is another point, in short, it is mixed, and in the end there is a trace of helplessness and relief.

"Who are they?" Chu Yan walked up to Mo Xiyao, and asked in confusion, because Mo Xiyao just said on the phone that he wanted him to come here quickly, and didn't mention anything specific.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Zhou Xiaoyu, and that is her mother." After Mo Xiyao finished introducing, Chu Yan also looked confused, as if he didn't know these two people, and, with Mo Xiyao's In the actual situation, the possibility of intersection with these two people is not very high.

"They are?" Just as Chu Yan asked, Mo Xiyao turned the computer monitor on her desk to Chu Yan, and then clicked on a video in the folder. When Chu Yan's eyes fell on the video , This is the only way to understand who these two people are.

"What are you two doing here?" Chu Yan wondered, Zhou Xiaoyu was the girl who planted the time bomb in the silver palm, and her mother was the crowd who didn't know the truth, because Mo Xiyao once gave Chu Yan had seen the video on Fatty Luo Kai's cell phone, in which she was the one crying and begging Mo Xiyao to let her and a little boy go.

"I'm sorry!! I'm really sorry!! I was forced!! My mother and brother were arrested and locked up by him. If I don't do it, he will starve my mother and brother to death. I...I...Mom , My brother is my last relative, I can't lose them... I'm sorry..." The girl stood up from the chair with a trembling voice, and she was about to kneel down to Mo Xiyao and Chu Yan while talking, Chu Yan quickly reached out to stop her her.

"I came here to thank Boss Mo. The police originally wanted to arrest me and go to jail. Boss Mo begged me to be able to stand here. Otherwise, my mother and brother would be left alone! Thank you, really Thank you!" Zhou Xiaoyu was very emotional, and although the tears did not stop, they were tears of joy.

Chu Yan has finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter until now, looking at Zhou Xiaoyu and the middle-aged woman beside Zhou Xiaoyu who was choking with tears and saying nothing, the string in Chu Yan's heart was gently plucked up.

"Xiyao, look?" Mo Xiyao understood what Chu Yan said, she looked at Zhou Xiaoyu, and finally nodded, "Okay, Xiaoyu, don't cry, I will give you a job, let you Can take good care of your mother and brother, would you like to?"

"I...I am willing!" Zhou Xiaoyu burst into tears instantly upon hearing this...
