Be careful

Populus directly took a taxi to Zheng Yidao's Seafood Hotel. The address was still the place where he worked a few years ago, but it was renovated inside and out, and it looked more stylish and upscale than before.

The neon signboard of the Seafood Hotel is on even in broad daylight, and the decorative glass tanks are placed in steps from the store to the street.

All kinds of fish, mussels, shrimps, and crabs are dazzling.

Fearing that the new clerk might not know Populus Quercus, Zheng Yidao stood at the door of the shop holding a teacup, drinking tea while waiting for someone.

As soon as Populus got off the taxi, Zheng Yidao poured out the tea root in the cup, walked up and embraced Poplar, as if welcoming his own son.

"A Li! You don't even look at me when you come back!" Zheng Yidao complained, but his face was full of joy.

Pu Li knew that Zheng Yidao usually made good tea, so he just passed by a tea shop and bought the best Tieguanyin.

Zheng Yidao accepted it with a smile, took Pu Li to the private room where Pu Yanan and Tao Ping were waiting, and then took out tea leaves to show them off: "My son gave it to me, don't you?"

Tao Ping covered her mouth and smiled: "You got a cheap son, did your mother agree?"

Pu Yanan was sitting by the window, smiling half a smile, knowing that Zheng Yidao was used to making jokes like this, so he didn't bother to care.In fact, her friends who watched Populus grow up together called Populus "my son".

Pu Yanan is grateful to this group of friends. When she was unable to give the warmth of the complete family of Pu Quercus, those friends shared a part of it invisibly.

Afterwards, several uncles and aunts came, all of whom were friends of Pu Yanan and Tao Ping. Sitting among a group of elders, Pope seemed a bit cramped.

A young man in his 20s is still being chased by his elders and stuffed with red envelopes, and Populus feels ashamed.Fortunately, he was prepared in time when he came, and he was taken care of by these elders since he was a child. Now that he has worked so much, he will send red envelopes to the elders, which is considered a joy.

You see me off, I see you off, the box is full of joy.

Zheng Yidao personally cooks and entertains Pu Yanan's friends, then calls Pu Li to the door, and takes a large gold ring with black gemstones from his finger.

"Ah Li, don't dislike that this ring was worn by me. Let me tell you, it saved my life." Zheng Yidao flipped the ring over, and pointed the side to the light to show Pope, "Do you see this scar? It’s from the scar. Once a group of gangsters came to my place to make trouble. They took out that knife, which was more than a foot long. I just cut this ring..."

Zheng Yidao put the ring on Pope's hand, but it kept falling off because of the inappropriate size, so he simply put it in Pope's pocket.

Pushing the ring through his pocket, Populus touched the ring in embarrassment: "Uncle, why don't you give me your amulet."

"You are away all the year round, and you are not under my nose, so I can rest assured that I put the most precious things in your place." Zheng Yidao winked at Pu Yue.

Populus has complicated feelings for Zheng Yidao.When I was a teenager, I learned that there was such a quack-like man pursuing Pu Yanan, and I was afraid and resisted.His possessive desire for his mother made him not want Pu Yanan to get close to any opposite sex.

Later, when he grew up a bit, he understood that in order to be able to do certain things, he must have a certain identity and status.For example, when Pu Yanan fell and was injured, if Zheng Yidao hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.For another example, without Zheng Yidao's guarantee, he might not have the opportunity to work in a watch shop, and naturally he would not have the opportunity to be spotted by scouts.

Now that Pu Li has experienced some things again, he feels that Zheng Yidao has not looked at other women for so many years, and always circles around Pu Yanan. As a junior, he should feel lucky.

When Populus is in love, the more you can understand what it is like when a person truly loves someone.

Pu Li is sure that Zheng Yidao really loves Pu Yanan.To this day, he also wants his mother to have someone to rely on.If possible, he would like to call Zheng Yidao "Dad".

"Then I'll take it," Pu Li smiled and punched Zheng Yidao, "but there is one thing, you have to help me."

Pu Li pulled Zheng Yidao into an unoccupied box, and took out the house lease contract.

He said: "Mom's lease contract at the Children's Palace is very embarrassing. I asked someone to help rent the house. But I'm afraid she won't accept it. Please help me give it to her. Just sign it."

Zheng Yidao looked through the rental contract. He knew the location and the house price best. He looked at Populus with approval, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Isn't it better for you to give it to her yourself?"

"My mother, you don't understand?" Populus laughed, "It's very stubborn."

Zheng Yidao and Pu Yue curled their lips together and laughed out loud at the same time.

"Uncle," Pu Li pursed his lower lip, looked up at Zheng Yidao's wrinkled copper-brown face, "I used to be a little afraid of you, and wanted to be taken care of by you, so on the surface I didn't object to your pursuit of my mother, but in my heart I was I don't like it."

Zheng Yidao looked back at Poplar, his eyes widened like copper bells: "Oh?"

Pushing his hair embarrassingly, Pope smiled: "But I also secretly thought about what would happen if you were my father. One time, I didn't do well in the exam, and I held a parent meeting. I also thought about asking you to pretend to be a parent. .Hahaha."

Zheng Yidao frowned and smiled: "Ha!"

"Actually," Populus gradually put away his smile and became serious, "I really want to call you Dad now. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you for taking care of our mother and child for so many years, and thank you for being willing to love me all the time. Mom wants nothing in return."

Zheng Yidao's expression also turned serious, he took a deep breath and let it out slowly: "Son..."

He hesitated to speak, but Pu Li understood what he meant.

"My mother just took care of me and was afraid that I would not be able to accept you, so she delayed you for so many years. If she didn't like you, she wouldn't have allowed you to be by her side for so long." Populus confessed, "Now that I have grown up, I understand You also understand mom, and I will say the same thing to her again."

Zheng Yidao's chest rose and fell, his nose flared, and his eyes turned red almost instantly.

He put his arms around the Poplar, his voice changed a bit: "Xiaxiali (thank you)."

"What are you doing hiding here?" At some point, Pu Yanan pushed open the door of the box, and in front of him, Pu Li and Zheng Yidao were bowing their heads and whispering.

"Look at this," Pu Li turned around and took out the black gemstone ring Zheng Yidao gave him from his pocket and put it on his hand, "My father gave it to me."

"What dad, talk nonsense, don't mention you, you are really getting more and more nonsense." Pu Yanan stood at the door, blushing, and staring stubbornly.

"I'll be called Dad from now on. You can change your name to Husband whenever you want." Pu Li patted Zheng Yidao's shoulder with a smile, and went out while wiping Pu Yanan's arm.

……

Mu Chi returned to Q City and went directly to Qin Shan's private residence in Q City.

He hurriedly left the Poplar tree and returned to Q city this time, because there was no urgent work to deal with at all.Instead, I received a call from Qin Shan on New Year's Eve.

The content of the phone call may reveal the identity of his lover with Populus Oak.

As soon as Mu Chi took his seat, Qin Shan directly put a lit iPad in front of Mu Chi.

Mu Chi picked up the ipad, and swipe left and right along the opened photo album.

The photo album is full of photos of him and the poplar.These photos were taken on the streets of City X two days ago.The angle of capture is very accurate, not blurry at all, and even has some literature and art.

"What do you mean?" Mu Chi asked Qin Shan.

Qin Shan's expression was indifferent, exactly the same as Mu Chi's memory.

"What do you want from him, or what do you want from me, just ask, or make a price. As long as I can afford it, you will take it." Qin Shan said coldly.

Mu Chi thought for a moment, straightened his back, with a contemptuous smile in his eyes: "Could it be that Qin Yingdi thinks that these photos are directed and acted by me?"

"Isn't it?" Qin Shan's voice was a little louder, and his speed of speech also accelerated, but his expression was still cold, "From the moment you thought of signing the Poplar tree into Xinghe, you should be planning how to play us father and son?"

"Arrangements, tricks?" Mu Chi shook his head and laughed, "Isn't this what Qin Yingdi is best at?"

Qin Shan was silent, staring blankly at Mu Chi.

Mu Chi and him looked at each other for a few seconds, and then nodded slightly in surprise: "Do you want me to help Emperor Qin recall how you tried your best to attract the attention of old Mr. Mu, climbed into Xinghe from a small southern theater troupe, And then seduced his son several times, cheated his feelings, and pulled resources on himself?"

Qin Shan heaved a sigh of relief, narrowed his eyes while staring at Mu Chi, and leaned back in his chair: "Xiao Chi, as I said, there were some things I did wrong, but not all of them are as you think."

"It doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter," Mu Chi smiled gracefully, "I'm just giving you an example to remind you who is the master at playing chess. In addition..."

Mu Chi pushed the ipad back and said, "I didn't find someone to take these photos. He is my artist and my lover. I want to protect him more than anyone else."

Qin Shan sighed again, as if something was stuck in his throat and he couldn't swallow it or spit it out.

"If Qin Yingdi has nothing else to do, then I will leave. Besides, these are just some photos, what can they explain? I want to remind you, it seems that someone knows that the relationship between you and Poplar is not simple, otherwise, It's better to threaten me with these things than to threaten you?"

After Mu Chi finished speaking, he stood up without looking back.

Qin Shan's residence in Q City is quite far from Jingcheng Bieyuan.He took the luggage left at the door and walked along the path.

The more I walked, the more my feet felt weak.This day was busy from morning to night, he kept rushing and guessing, not knowing what Qin Shan would show him, and he was exhausted.

Fortunately, just some innocuous photos.These photos can be interpreted in a wide range, and you can make up stories in any way.On the contrary, someone would show Qin Shan such a photo, which surprised him.

It seems that in this world, the people who know that Qin Shan and Pu Li are father and son are not the only three people that Mu Chi thought.This made him feel some pressure virtually.
