female catcher

Chapter 110
Xia Chu turned his head to look at Su Zhen, pursed his lips and smiled, suddenly felt his eyes were hot and his nose was sore, he turned away quickly, trying hard to swallow back his tears.

"Master Huang..." She carefully placed the painting in the box, blinked vigorously, then slapped it with her hands, took a deep breath, and tried her best to smile at Su Zhen.

"Ok?"

"Thank you." Xia Chu rubbed his hands, "I want to say..., this is the best and best gift I've ever received in my life." She wanted to cry again, lowered her head, raised her hand and dialed The bangs on the forehead, and looking into Su Zhen's eyes, said forcefully, word for word: "The best and the best."

If possible, she really wanted to give Su Zhen a hug.

Su Zhen stared at Xia Chu intently, seeing tears in her eyes, felt a little distressed.He knew that Xia Chu's tears were not sad, but he felt sad for Xia Chu.

"It's good that you like this gift."

An Liang said that when you give a gift, you should give what your friends need.He thought, what Chu Xia needs must not be gold, silver and jewels, and must not be a powerful official.What she needs most, what she wants most, is the least likely to get.

It is the family and affection that I want to cherish, but have no chance to cherish.That kind of regret is the pain in my heart that will never be erased no matter how strong and optimistic I am.

He wants to say, he understands.

Xia Chu took the painting in his hand and looked at it again and again, while Su Zhen wanted to get her photo, comparing it to see if it looked the same, "I'm a bit hasty this time, I'll draw another one for you another day. "

"No, this one is already very good." Xia Chu pointed to the little boy in the painting, "This painting is the most similar."

Su Zhen smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, I only drew this one. Because you remember it most clearly."

Xia Chu had never heard of sweet talk, and he didn't know whether Su Zhen's words were sweet talk or not.She thought, maybe the listener has intentions, maybe it's just being self-indulgent, but the words uttered by that deep and penetrating voice feel so special.

She went to the kitchen to find some noodles, added water to make a paste, and together with Su Zhen carefully pasted the painting on the wall, where she could see it every day when she opened her eyes.She hoped that they could see her strength every day in this lonely and warm world.

After pasting the pictures, Su Zhen and Xia Chu stood in the room stupidly, neither of them said a word.The main reason is that both of them are at a loss as to what to do next.

Xia Chu only knew that her birthday was coming, but she was busy with the case recently, and she didn't have time to think about how to spend her birthday, she just wanted to have a meal.But now that lunch is over and dinner is still early, what do you use this time for?

In previous years, on her birthday, she would go to her family's tomb to worship and sweep, and then eat a bowl of noodles by herself.She celebrated her friend's birthday, nothing more than going to sing and sing. There must be no such facilities in Xijing City, so don't even think about it.I don't know what the ancients would do on their birthdays.

In order to conceal his ignorance, Xia Chu asked Su Zhen with a smile: "Young Master Huang, I haven't celebrated my birthday in previous years. Do you have any suggestions from Young Master Huang? Where should we go?"
Su Zhen was stopped by her questioning.

He didn't celebrate anyone else's birthday.Or it can be said that he did not give an ordinary person a birthday.His father's birthday was the Longevity Day, and there was nothing to refer to for the complicated etiquette of the formation.

On the birthday of a concubine in the palace or the emperor's brother, there is a feast, and the dancer will perform a piece with the sound of silk and bamboo. The only difference lies in the dance.

He thought that Chu Xia would make arrangements for himself, but he didn't expect that she would ask him about it.

"Where do you want to go? I can do whatever I want." Su Zhen kicked the ball back again.

"Young Master Huang is a guest, so do as you please." Xia Chu insisted on a reason, and pushed it back to Su Zhen.

As soon as Su Zhen heard the lame words, she knew that she really didn't know what to do, rather than just being polite to herself.He thought to himself that it was not a problem to push back and forth like this, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I'm a little thirsty, can you make me some tea?"

"Ah?" Chu Xia froze, then nodded hurriedly, "Oh, okay, wait a minute."

When Chu Xia stepped out of the door, Su Zhen raised his head and called out to Min Feng in a low voice.A tile on the roof was gently lifted, revealing half of Min Feng's face, "Master."

"What do you usually do on your birthday?"

"Eat, drink, go to brothel. Or go to brothel to eat and drink."

Su Zhen's face darkened, he pointed at him, and then took a look outside the room, "Think again!"

"Listen to the play."

"Go and make arrangements." Su Zhen waved his hand at him, Min Feng said yes, and the tile was put back on again.When Su Zhen went to the kitchen to find Xia Chu, Xia Chu had just scooped up a pot of water and was about to put it on the stove, when he saw him come in, he said, "Mr. Huang, wait a minute, the hot water needs to be boiled now."

"No, I think of a place and I don't know if it suits you."

"Where?"

"Tai Guang Lou. Do you like to listen to opera?"

"I'm fine no matter what!" Xia Chu heaved a sigh of relief, as long as he has a place to go, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to invite someone to sit at home. "Two days ago, I heard people say that there was a singer in the German class who was very popular now. I was very curious."

"That's right, have a meal after listening to the play. How do you like it?"

"It's pretty good." Xia Chu threw the copper pot on the stove, dusted off the hem of his clothes, and put on his nondescript captive cap, "Let's go!"

An Liang drove Su Zhen and Xia Chu to Taiguang Building in Xishi City, but they couldn't get in at the intersection.Su Zhen looked at the dark crowd through the curtain, and asked An Liang to see what was going on.

"Xiao Liang, don't watch it, this is just for listening to the show." Xia Chu opened the curtain of the car and went out, stood on the car board to take a look, and said to Su Zhen: "I forgot about it, what do you think?" You don’t necessarily get a seat when you watch a play.”

Su Zhen smiled noncommittally, and said to An Liang: "Go over and have a look, if you have a place, come and find us. We will wait in the teahouse opposite."

An Liang naturally understood what Su Zhen meant, so he followed suit.

The teahouse was also full, so Su Zhen and Xia Chu had no choice but to stand outside.The crowd was crowded together, and the loud or whispered voices were noisy, which made Su Zhen very uncomfortable.

Xia Chu was also a little annoyed seeing so many people, turned to look at Su Zhen, and saw him wearing a moon white gown in the crowd, as if the bright moon was placed in the galaxy, one glance, and felt that the irritability had completely faded away.

Su Zhen withdrew his gaze from the crowd, turned his head slightly to look at Xia Chu, "What are you always looking at me for?"

Xia Chu said very frankly: "My eyes are tired, I don't want to look elsewhere, I watch Mr. Huang raise his eyes."

Su Zhen was a little embarrassed by what she said, and didn't know how to answer her properly, so he touched his nose and turned his head away.After a while, he looked back at Xia Chu again, without taking his eyes off, and nodded for a while, "This method is not bad."

Xia Chu was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.

She guessed in her heart that Su Zhen's daily life must be very rigid and well-behaved, perhaps a bit depressing to say the least.He is like the kind of top student who has grown up since he was a child. He may belong to the category of "other people's children". The elders put a lot of pressure on him, and he puts a lot of pressure on himself.In the end, a young and mature temperament was suppressed.

What kind of growth environment is this? Thinking about it makes me feel tight in my chest.

Xia Chu vaguely thought about why he was willing to come to her and be friends with her despite the huge gap between the rich and the poor.Probably because he was able to relax because he was with himself.

What a poor rich second generation.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd, and people all over the alley rushed towards the entrance of the alley. Someone shouted excitedly, "Boss Yue is here", and the voice gradually became louder.Then a carriage was surrounded and slowly came in from the alley.Xia Chu looked at the obsessive expression of the drama, and heard the shouts from the crowd, and felt that it was no different from a modern star walking the red carpet. She almost had the illusion of hearing the shutter of the camera.

"Yue Xiaohong?" Su Zhen asked.

Xia Chu nodded, "Young Master Huang also knows? The very popular Danjiao I mentioned is him."

The carriage stopped at the entrance of Taiguang Building, the curtain was lifted, and a thin young man stepped out of the carriage. He looked about eighteen or nineteen years old at the most, and was wearing an ermine gray gown. He turned slowly and glanced at the crowd The crowd, if there is nothing, smile.

The crowd below shouted even harder.Yue Xiaohong nodded lightly to the left and right, as a greeting, and was escorted into the backstage by the people from Tai Guang Building.

What a style.

Xia Chu was watching with great interest, when he suddenly saw a thin and small man on the periphery of the crowd, his eyes were looking left and right, but his hand was poked into the crowd, and when he took it out again, there was an extra purse in his hand.As soon as he put away the purse, he quickly changed his place and stood up, squeezing the people in front, calling out to Boss Yue while reaching in again.

Xia Chu had a laugh, and said to Su Zhen, "Young Master Huang, wait for me."

"what happened?"

Xia Chu waved his hands and didn't speak, strode up to the thin man and stood still, and when he came out with the purse, he pinched his wrist.

The man was startled, let go and was about to throw the purse on the ground, Xia Chu smiled at him: "It's useless, you still have one in your sleeve, throw this, how do you explain the other one."

"Master, Lord, please do me a favor and forgive me." The man said with a bitter face, "I have nothing to do with it, my family..."

This made Xia Chu even happier, "Is your mother sick or your father sick?"

"I..., my son is sick." The man said bravely.

"All right, take out your purse." Xia Chu patted his sleeve.The man struggled twice with his wrist, and then he took out the purse he just stole from his sleeve with a dejected face, and gave it to Xia Chu together with the one in his hand, and muttered: "Well, count me today It's unlucky to run into a nosy person just after opening."

Xia Chu shook his head, "I really don't want to be nosy, but it's true that you're unlucky today. I'm a police officer from the government office, come with me."
