Curse Love Game

Sometimes Xu Qiubai really didn't know what he was thinking, as if he was in some kind of contradictory state.

He changes his mind every day and comes up with new ideas for Xu Qiubai every day.

He had just been advising Xu Qiubai and Zhong Xiaomian not to go the day before, and the next day he changed his mind and asked them to be more restrained over there, talk less and do less.

The most typical example is that he clearly denied that the institute had absolutely no restrictions on his freedom of life, but he found various reasons not to step out of the institute's door.

Xu Qiubai has contacted him five times in three days. Is this still because he is too busy with the project and cannot go abroad?

Sometimes Xu Qiubai felt that this man actually didn't care about his old lover who was far away and didn't have much time left to live.

Of course, he cared even less about Ge Zhi.

Xu Qiubai secretly asked the lady in a white coat who was familiar with him in the institute, and she said that Zhong Nanyi rarely communicated with others in the institute.

It's a scene where the entire social relationship is completely broken.

His behavioral change occurred on the 23rd, the day before Xu Qiubai and Zhong Xiaomian set out.

"Uncle Zhong, have you lifted the seal?"

Xu Qiubai found that he was actually waiting for him at the gate of the institute.

Zhong Nanyi was carrying a slightly bulky briefcase and wearing a particularly old-fashioned hat.

Faced with Xu Qiubai's ridicule, he pretended not to hear it.

Of course, maybe I'm just used to it.

In short, he is not a middle-aged man with a sense of humor.

But fortunately, he doesn't seem to mind other people making a little humorous comments to him.

"I heard that the last time you went out of this door was three years ago?"

"How did you know?"

He seemed to not want to talk about these things.

"I have a little connection."

"In the research institute?"

"Yes."

"Do you know Hua Yingrui?"

"Who is Hua Yingrui, the deputy director?"

Xu Qiubai made a reasonable guess.

But when Zhong Nanyi saw that Xu Qiubai didn't even know the deputy director's name, he obviously had no interest in continuing the conversation.

"Uncle Zhong, what are you going to do with such a big bag?"

"Something to bring to a friend."

"I took a bunch of stuff out of the institute, but it felt like I was leaking it. It was like something a spy would do."

Xu Qiubai also took the opportunity to criticize Old Zhong, who was always causing trouble.

"What are you talking about?!"

Zhong Nanyi's whole body tensed up, and his voice was more defensive than ever before.

"Uh..."

Is the joke over?

The shaking of his pupils is too exaggerated.

But it seemed reasonable to him.

When a high-quality man is not after money or sex, he can only care about his "reputation".

"Hey, I was just kidding. I won't open it anymore."

Xu Qiubai waved his hand.

Zhong Nanyi glared at Xu Qiubai and said nothing.

After that, Zhong Nanyi basically ignored Xu Qiubai.

He didn't want to answer any of the main questions, including "where to go", "which friend to find", and "what to do with friends".

Xu Qiubai was not happy about this.

He has to leave tomorrow, and he doesn't have that much time to waste with this old man.

Originally, I came here today to stay with Yuan Chunna for a while, and I had no intention of traveling far.

"Uncle Zhong, isn't this wrong?

If I were an insignificant person, why did you have to call me along?

If you don't want to talk to me, then I'll get off the car and go back. I have something else to do at the station."

Without waiting for his reaction, he shouted, "Driver, stop ahead."

"Wait! You can't leave now."

Xu Qiubai put enough pressure on Zhong Nanyi, and he couldn't hold it in any longer.

"I'm going to meet a friend... between Windsor and me."

"Male and female?"

"male."

"But why did you take the taxi to the suburbs?"

Xu Qiubai had studied the maps of Jiangsu and Shanghai to some extent.

"He... is waiting for me there."

"Why don't you let him come to you? Isn't it convenient in the city?"

"..."

Zhong Nanyi stopped talking.

Xu Qiubai was a little confused.

Perhaps he felt it was inconvenient to elaborate since the driver was present.

"So what role do I play?"

Xu Qiubai raised the key question again.

"I... haven't been out with anyone for a long time. At this time, I can only find you..."

Zhong Nanyi said this in a very melancholy tone.

OK, stop there. The style of painting will become a bit weird if I continue.

Xu Qiubai also roughly understood that although Old Zhong was a cool scientific research uncle, he was a living person after all and sometimes he needed a little companionship.

Because of Windsor's incident, his biological daughter Zhong Xiaomian has been "cold-bullying" him these days, so it is impossible to ask her to go with him.

Apart from this, it seemed that Xu Qiubai was the only one who could accompany him.

You can't ask Ge Zhi to come, right?

"How long will it take to arrive?"

"There's still an hour left."

"Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were going to such great lengths?"

Xu Qiubai was really unhappy now.

…………

The one hour in the car was a bit torturous for Xu Qiubai.

Zhong Nanyi didn't say anything.

Zhong Xiaomian seemed to be busy too and didn't reply to the message.

In fact, Xu Qiubai hadn't packed all his luggage yet.

The taxi gradually drove to an industrial park.
