90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 143 You are going to heaven

 When the wood hits the ground, it means it has landed.

 Xiao Cheng should now be trading in the timber market.

Just as Bai Lu finished her thoughts, the phone rang.

Xiao Wei's eyes lit up, but he didn't get up. Instead, he turned to look at Bai Lu: "Brother is calling. He must have something important to ask you. Please answer the phone quickly."

 Bai Lu glanced at the displayed number and made sure it was the number she had called before. In order to avoid Xiao Cheng mentioning Wang Hao's call again, she picked up the phone and spoke first.

"A-Cheng, have you eaten? Are you ashore? Is everything going well? Is the transaction of those fir trees completed? What are you doing now?"

On the other end of the phone, as soon as Xiao Cheng said the word "Lu", the sound was automatically silenced and replaced by a girl's voice.

He listened quietly to her words before answering one by one: "I've eaten. I've landed ashore. Everything went well. The fir trade has been completed. I just finished eating with Jiang Zheng."

  Xiao Cheng had contacted the buyer before leaving the province, and it was inevitable that he would make the deal when he landed.

Bai Lu immediately said: "Then you should keep your money and don't be deceived. There are many scammers out there. Are you on the street or somewhere? The sound over there sounds a bit noisy. There are vendors shouting. There was also the sound of car horns, but why didn’t I hear the voices of Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang? Aren’t they with you? "

After listening for a long time, Xiao Cheng finally understood why the girl at home suddenly became so abnormal.

He chuckled softly: "There is a street opposite the restaurant entrance. There are cars and people. Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang are looking for a place to stay, but they haven't come back yet."

Bai Lu ignored the meaningful chuckle in the receiver and ordered: "When looking for a hotel, look for a regular one that is safe and guaranteed. Those little black shops with no front and back are going to be crazy to trick people. They won't pick you off." You bastard, don’t even think about leaving. It’s your first time out of the province and you’re not familiar with the place, so be careful...”

 The long talk was gushing in his ears, and when he came to the last sentence of "Okay?", Xiao Cheng replied with the word "Okay" without hesitation, his voice was low and slightly magnetic.

 Then he asked: “Is anyone still looking for you today?”

 Xiao Cheng probably also knew that as soon as he traveled far away, unscrupulous people would come looking for trouble.

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief: "My mother and my brother came to see me and left after reading it."

Xiao Cheng knew that she didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions and said softly: "Wait until I come back."

"Uh-huh? ? ?

 After subconsciously responding, Bai Lu realized that Xiao Cheng's words seemed a bit wrong.

In his previous life, Xiao Cheng went to other provinces for development and never came back. His original body fell into the river, and Xiao Wei also disappeared. For Xiao Cheng, there is indeed no nostalgia for the new town.

After many setbacks and making a lot of money, Xiao Cheng came back once and moved the tomb away, and he never came back again.

Now, Xiao Wei is not missing and is still at home. Xiao Cheng still has family ties to cherish, so he is coming back.

Bai Lu accurately grasped the truth and replied seriously: "You don't have to worry about home, I will take good care of Xiaowei. Just do whatever you want. Just come back before the college entrance examination, or you can pick Xiaowei over. When I finished the exam, I left here. Xiaowei was only seven years old, so it was impossible to stay alone in the new town. "

The phone suddenly went silent.

 The silence lasted for so long that I don’t know how long it took.

After a long time, Bai Lu thought there was no signal from Xiao Cheng and couldn't hear him. Just when he was about to ask for help, a man's cold snort sounded in his ears, making his ears feel cold through the receiver.

 He seemed angry.

 “Are you listening?”

 “Take care of yourself, hang up!”

 The displeasure in his tone was obvious, much like the child who wanted her to shave her head that night when she was drunk.

Bai Lu didn't know whether he was drunk again or had a seizure suddenly, so she waited quietly for him to hang up the phone.

 As a result, he stayed awake for a long time.

 “Xiao Cheng?”

"what!"

 The child was indeed angry.

Bai Lu looked back at the little bald man and gave him the receiver: "Do you want to chat with your brother?"

  Xiao Wei: “…”

You want to use me to block the gunfire. Big Brother asked you to wait for him to come back. If you tell Big Brother that you want to leave, you are going to heaven.

Another scalp-piercing cold snort came, and Xiao Wei shook his head decisively, rejecting this hot potato.

 Bai Lu heard someone calling Brother Cheng on the phone, and it sounded like Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang's voice.

 “If you have something to do, go and do it.”

"Hang up the phone!"

The child was disobedient, drank alcohol, and lost his temper for no apparent reason. Bai Lu wanted nothing to do with him.

 “Just hang up.”

Without hesitation, Bai Lu put the phone back on the landline and went back to her room to read without paying attention to anyone.

 Xiao Wei looked at Bai Lu's back with sympathy.

Even though we are facing a great disaster, we can still read books.

 After eating, taking a shower, washing clothes, and hanging clothes in the evening, the phone in the main house didn't ring.

Bai Lu and Xiao Wei both made a tacit agreement to forget that there was a telephone at home, and each went to their own rooms to sleep.

No one knows whether I can sleep or not.

 The other side of the moon.

Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang ran away and finally found the "most regular hotel" in the words of the eldest brother. They completed the check-in procedures diligently and were stared at by the eldest brother along the way.

 They will have to check the electrical appliance market tomorrow, can't they have a good sleep tonight?

Which little **** made this evil dragon angry again? You must give him a good lesson when you go back!

Moments before Xiao Cheng closed the door, he said coldly: "Do you know where we will meet tomorrow?"

 “I know! I know!”

“Nianxiangren Restaurant is next to Jiajia Taste Restaurant outside Chang’an Electronics Industrial Zone, to the right of the Jianghai Park entrance, to the left of Yingkeju Teahouse, and next door.”

As soon as Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang finished answering, a door opened in front of them, cold and impersonal.

 “Tsk—let me know which little brat is causing the trouble, and see if I don’t kill him!”

 Xiao Dazhuang strongly agreed with Luo Shiliu's words: "I'll kill him too!"

Tonight is extremely long.

Xiao Cheng lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling for a while, then turned his eyes to the telephone on the bedside table.

 Looked at it for a while and then turned back to look at the ceiling.

Dim and soft lights, an empty room, and silence separate two worlds.

　　No matter how bright the ceiling is, it can’t keep your absent-minded gaze away, and it unexpectedly returns to the landline phone.

 After a while, he turned back.

 The ceiling, the phone, back and forth.

 On a starless night, even the dawn is gloomy, like a sign of an approaching storm.

Bai Lu was frying chestnuts in the kitchen with the light on.

Xiao Wei has already had breakfast and gone to school. The electric chestnut frying machine in the kitchen is buzzing and working hard. The preheated sand emits bursts of burnt aroma.

Three rounds of sugar-roasted chestnuts have been taken out of the pot. Bai Lu skillfully scooped up a spoonful of maltose syrup and was about to pour it into the pot.

 The lights in the room suddenly flashed, and a black shadow flashed quickly from the angle refracted by the window.

 The kitchen has two windows, one facing the side of the main house and the other facing the outer wall.

The direction in which the black shadow jumped is the wall.
