Even though it had been more than a week since the incident and she had already taught her a lesson, the sight of Xu Ziyan crying and calling for her mother would still wake her up from her midnight dreams.

What happened to his son could be said to be an unprovoked disaster, but what happened to Xu Huanshan today was entirely his own fault.

A fight on the court ended up in the police station, and the other parties were a group of students. When she first received the call, Gu Jia suspected that the police had made a mistake. Facts proved that the police were not wrong, and she had misjudged the person. Xu Huanshan was not as mature and steady as she had imagined.

"Mrs. Xu, it would be best if we could reach an understanding with these students and make a big deal out of a small matter, or a small matter out of nothing..."

Lawyer Qian, who was introduced by Mrs. Wang, mainly handles commercial dispute cases. He is not professional and has no interest in cases like fights and brawls, which do not involve much profit.

"We don't want reconciliation, and we don't want money. Just do it impartially. Look how you beat us..."

The first to strike is a mean person, and I will beat him to death without complaint; Xu Huanshan struck first, and now this group of college students is a bit unreasonable.

"Mrs. Xu, why don't you contact Mrs. Wang? She should have friends in the police station. It would be best if the police could put some pressure on them. Reaching an understanding would be beneficial to everyone."

Even if the deal fails, the friendship remains. Probably thinking of this, Lawyer Qian called Gu Jia aside and whispered a reminder.

"Okay, I see."

Gu Jia took out her cell phone and dialed a number; she did not call Mrs. Wang, but Chen Xu. It was at this moment that she realized that in her subconscious, she had already regarded Chen Xu as a support.

"Chen Xu, where are you now?"

Chen Xu, who had just returned to Shanghai, did not expect that Gu Jia would call him at this time.

"I'm in Shanghai, what's going on?"

"Do you know any friends in the police station? Today, Huanshan had a conflict with a group of students while playing football. He was the first to start..."

Gu Jia felt a little embarrassed when she said this.

"Have you examined the injuries? Is the other party seriously injured?"

Chen Xu recalled that there seemed to be a similar scene in the original drama, but it seemed to have been resolved by him with just a few words; if he could do it, there was no reason why he couldn't.

"I checked the injuries, they are just superficial injuries."

"Okay, I'll be right over."

Half an hour later, Chen Xu saw Xu Huanshan squatting on the ground with his hands on his head, his face bruised and swollen, in the police station.

"Brother, you are an old man but you are still young. Come on, smile. This pose is good. I will take a photo and show it to Xu Ziyan. I have already thought of a name for you. How about calling him the beaten dad?"

It was the first time that Chen Xu saw Xu Huanshan with a bruised face and nose.

"Alright, alright, stop playing around and get me out of here..."

Xu Huanshan also knew that he had lost face this time.

The joke should not be taken too far, after all, they are people of the same kind. Chen Xu just took out his mobile phone for fun and did not really take a photo.

"Sister, don't worry, it's just a small matter, I'll go talk to them..."

"Um"

One appears childish on the surface but is mature on the inside, the other appears mature on the surface but is childish on the inside; Gu Jia couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It was not difficult to communicate with these college students. Chen Xu just bent down and helped them analyze the pros and cons as an equal.

What year is he in? Is his injury serious? Do you need help notifying the school and parents? Will fighting affect his graduation?

After asking four or five questions, the leader who had previously clamored for impartiality remained silent.

"Mr. Chen, why are you here? Why don't you come to my office and sit down?"

"Director Wang, my friend has something going on here. I'm trying to avoid suspicion so as not to cause you any trouble."

When money reaches a certain amount, it is just a string of numbers; Chen Xu is not only generous in spending money on his woman, but also generous in charitable donations; the Director Wang in front of him was someone he met at a donation meeting.

"Then we really need to avoid suspicion. I'll leave first. We can have tea together when we have time."

What else do you want from him?

Although the college students are still on campus, they have begun to come into contact with the social ways of the world. The leader who had been silent before finally agreed to reconcile.

It wasn't a big deal, and both parties agreed to a settlement, so the police naturally wouldn't make trouble. After taking the statements, everyone walked out of the police station.

"Chen Xu, thanks to your help today. Thank you."

"Why are you thanking me? We are all family. Brother, you are being too formal..."

Xu Huanshan thought Chen Xu was being polite and didn't notice the unnatural expression on his wife's face when he said this.

"Chen Xu, the day after tomorrow is Xiaoqin's 30th birthday. So many days have passed, it's time for you to let go of your anger. Will you attend her birthday party?"

One is stupid and the other is bad. Gu Jia became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and interrupted the business flattery of the two bastards in front of her.

"I must participate. If she calls me, I will participate..."

The prerequisite for participating is that she has to call me. Chen Xu has been reflecting these days, wondering if he is too easy to talk to, which is why Zhong Xiaoqin dared to slap him in the face so unscrupulously.

Gu Jia is indeed a good connector. Not long after Chen Xu separated from them, he received a WeChat message from Zhong Xiaoqin, inviting him to attend her birthday party the day after tomorrow.

Chen Xu had to do what he promised, so he attended the party on time.

"coming"

Zhong Xiaoqin was in poor health, and Chen Yu was cooking in the kitchen. It was Gu Jia who helped him open the door.

"Well, why are you alone? Xu Huanshan and Ziyan haven't arrived yet?"

"Huanshan went on a business trip to Beijing, Ziyan asked Sister Chen to look after him..."

The relationship between the two is very complicated, and there is a sense of lingering connection, so Gu Jia is afraid to be alone with Chen Xu.

"Chen Xu is here..."

Zhong Xiaoqin, who was originally sitting on the sofa in the living room, stood up and greeted Chen Xu.

"Yes, sister-in-law, happy birthday to you, this is a gift for you..."

"What is that? Let's make it clear this time. I won't accept anything too expensive..."

As mentioned earlier, Zhong Xiaoqin has been reflecting on herself during this period.

"An oil painting, painted by me."

Because Zhong Xiaoqin is in this special period, Chen Xu, who couldn't think of a gift, went back to his old ways and painted a portrait for her.

"You painted, what did you paint?"

Birthday gifts need to be mysterious, so Chen Xu made simple packaging.

"Just open it and you'll know..."

Also wanting to see what Chen Xu was up to, Zhong Xiaoqin slowly began to unpack the package.

"Did you draw this?"

Zhong Xiaoqin, who is almost six months pregnant, has gained a lot of weight. She can no longer wear the beautiful clothes she used to wear. Now, she doesn’t even dare to look in the mirror.

At this moment, she was looking at herself in the oil painting, who was petite and as beautiful as ever, and she couldn't help herself.

"I told you long ago that I am a professional. At that time, my family didn't have the means to do so. The person standing in front of you now is a well-known painter in China."

"Don't give me that. You are just conceited. I like the gift very much. Thank you."

Chen Xu had given many gifts before, but Zhong Xiaoqin was most satisfied with the one today.

Chapter 191 Return

"Manni may have returned to Shanghai. I saw her Moments yesterday and her hometown is Shanghai."

Chen Xu didn't expect that Zhong Xiaoqin would say such a thing to him when leaving.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, sister-in-law..."

Returning to Shanghai, does it mean that Wang Manni has figured it out and has taken a step forward? Should I take the next step myself, Chen Xu thought a little narcissistically.

As it turned out, he didn't think too much about it. In a hotel more than ten kilometers away, Wang Manni was talking to herself in front of a man on the screen of her mobile phone.

"Wang Manni, I think you've almost done it. You've already taken so many steps back, so you don't have to take more than a few steps. Just go back and find him."

"No, Wang Manni, if you go back like this in disgrace, how can you still maintain your dignity around him in the future..."

"But you've blocked him, so how can he find you?"

After a series of inner monologues, Wang Xiaohei and Wang Xiaobai could not convince each other, so Wang Manni decided to watch some variety shows to relieve her irritable mood.

What to watch? "I Am a Singer" seems to be coming to the finale. Wang Manni likes one of the singers named Qian Lili very much.

Although their identities are very different, Wang Manni feels that she is very similar to her; especially when she heard her talk about going on a hunger strike with her parents in pursuit of her dream.

"Now, let us invite Qian Lili and her guest singer Chen Xu to perform the song "Liangliang"..."

Chen Xu? It's just a coincidence, this was Wang Manni's first reaction.

But it seemed as if God was against her. In less than a few seconds, the man on her phone screen appeared on the TV screen.

"Am I hallucinating?"

Even so, Wang Manni still felt it was impossible, until the song was over and Qian Lili followed him back to the lounge. The tone of voice that seemed modest but actually didn't care about anything was really that bastard...

"Lily, what is your relationship with Chen Xu? It's unlikely that he would be willing to write a song for you if you're just good friends, right?"

The TV was playing the scene where Qian Lili was asked about her relationship with Chen Xu. Wang Manni's heart started beating wildly in front of the TV.

"We were boyfriend and girlfriend, I pursued him..."

Boom

Not to mention how surprised the people at the scene were, for a moment, Wang Manni just felt dizzy, the competition was too fierce.

"No, no, she was just joking. I have a girlfriend and she's been sulking me these days. If she hadn't tricked me into coming here to be the guest singer, I would have gone back to find her a long time ago..."

Happiness came too suddenly, and Wang Manni truly felt it at this moment; it was like a roller coaster ride, it turned out that in his heart, I was more important than the big singer Qian Lili.

.........

I have thought it through. I cannot live without you. I am waiting for you in room 1306 of Banyan Tree Hotel...

Happiness came too suddenly. Chen Xu, who was wondering where Wang Manni would be in Shanghai when he received this WeChat message, felt the same way.

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon..."

Since they were so proactive, Chen Xu could only express his attitude by replying immediately.

Half an hour later

Room 1306, Banyan Tree Shanghai

It was like thunder and lightning hitting each other, and the short separation was better than a new marriage. When they met, both of them wanted to eat each other.

5000 is omitted here...

"There are still many houses that have not been sold in Phase 3 of Grand Hyatt Mansion. Please accompany me to look at the houses tomorrow..."

"You're using your money to knock me out again. I'm already completely fascinated by you. Isn't that enough?"

Wang Manni leaned lazily in Chen Xu's arms and said with a smile.

"Not enough, I'm afraid that next time you wake up, you'll run away again, and I won't even have a place to find you or miss you;

Also, although I cannot marry you, I want you to have a home in Shanghai, a home for the two of us..."

As a renter who is chased away by the landlord, there is probably no other love words that could move Wang Manni more than this.

.........

Sweet time

Wang Manni had just accompanied Chen Xu to buy a house and a car in the morning, and in the afternoon she called Zhong Xiaoqin and Gu Jia.

"You won't look down on me and think that I'm with Chen Xu just for money."

"How could that be? Putting aside his infidelity, Chen Xu really doesn't have any flaws. It's normal for you to like him."

Wang Manni was very surprised that such considerate words would come from the mouth of Zhong Xiaoqin, who had scolded Chen Xu as a scumbag last time.

"That's right, you have to live your own life. As long as you are happy, you don't have to worry about rumors. Besides, Chen Xu is not married, so no one has the right to say anything about you..."

Since Zhong Xiaoqin said so, Gu Jia would never say anything to spoil the mood.

"In fact, I was also hesitant at first, until I saw him on TV participating in a program and admitting in front of so many people that I was his girlfriend." (There are more than one woman who thinks like Wang Manni.)

Even after a whole day, Wang Manni still hasn't gotten over the surprise.
