The conversation in the house was still going on, but Xie Zhixing didn't want to listen to it anymore. No one in the Du family really wanted to see them. After all these years, they only came to the door when they needed something. Usually, no one would take his father as a teacher seriously. .

Throwing his schoolbag over his shoulder again and going downstairs, Xie Zhixing was playing games with his apprentice in an Internet cafe. His left arm was injured and his operation was not as smooth as usual. The idiot on the other side was happy to think that his skills had improved. He seemed so happy, he was quite envious of Tong Shuo She has a good personality, and she is happy with a little thing.

After staying in the Internet cafe for two hours, he figured that the Du family had almost left before he got up and went home.

When I got to the door, I didn't hear any voices inside.He took the key and opened the door to enter the house. The living room was empty, and his father Xie Xingwen was smoking on the balcony.

When Xie Xingwen heard the sound of the door opening, he turned his head and glanced at him, without much expression on his face, he just asked a question and came back, then turned his head and continued to smoke.

After he went to high school, the father and son were basically in this mode of almost zero communication.

Xie Zhixing seldom had his father's company in his childhood, and his father was always busy with work in his impression. Sometimes he even felt that he was not as important as Xie Xingwen's students.On the contrary, his mother had been by his side since he was a child. Although she was a little eager to hope that her son would become a dragon, she spent at least a few years of childhood with him.

Later, when his parents divorced, Xie Xingwen voluntarily applied to be transferred back to the county high school, and took Xie Zhixing, who was still in the fifth grade and only in his teens, with him.

Xie Zhixing always thought that his father insisted on obtaining his custody rights, and he was overbearing and refused to let his mother see him. He was still young at the time, and later entered the rebellious period, so he confronted Xie Xingwen everywhere. The two quarreled constantly, and Xie Xingwen beat him I scolded him, but my son is still the same.

Especially when Xie Zhixing injured his classmate last semester and Xie Xingwen went to school to clean up the aftermath, the two had a big quarrel and their relationship fell to a freezing point.

Before rebirth, Xie Zhixing went to the attached middle school, and it was difficult to go back several times in a semester. Xie Xingwen only sent money to him on time. He should be the closest person, but he lived like a stranger.

It wasn't until a few years later that he realized his father's good intentions for him, but at that time the problems between the two of them were so serious that it was difficult to return to the past.

He didn't go home until a few months after his rebirth, partly because he didn't know how to face it.

Xie Zhixing watched the smoke ring slowly drifting away from the balcony, his throat moved, and he called out "Dad." He said, "I'm back."

Xie Xingwen, who was putting the cigarette into his mouth, paused, and turned around like a movie in slow motion, his eyes were full of shock and surprise, Xie Zhixing had no doubt that he might feel that he was hallucinating.

Sighing inwardly, Xie Zhixing asked in a relaxed tone, "Is there any food left? I'm a little hungry."

Xie Xingwen was stunned for a while, until the cigarette between his fingers almost burned him, and he came back to his senses: "No...ah, yes, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Xie Zhixing has never seen Xie Xingwen like this. The image of his father in his heart is serious, serious, and rigid... In short, it has nothing to do with love. Seeing such a nervous and even a little helpless father now, Xie Zhixing has mixed feelings in his heart.

"No need." He went back to his room, put away his schoolbag, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Do you have noodles? I'll cook some."

Xie Xingwen was even more surprised, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes." Then he ran to the kitchen to get the noodles, and handed them to Xie Zhixing as if asking for credit.

Xie Zhixing took tomatoes and green peppers from the refrigerator, and asked him if he wanted some, and Xie Xingwen immediately said yes.

Xie Zhixing was surprised: "Didn't you eat it?" His father's meal time is twelve o'clock, and it's already 01:30 now.

Xie Xingwen immediately said, "I'm not full."

In the new life, Xie Zhixing didn't know that Xie Xingwen just wanted to taste the rice he cooked, and he didn't let it go. He gave him tomatoes and green peppers to wash, and took eggs out of the refrigerator.

Xie Xingwen was so happy, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his son ordering him around.

Having lived abroad for many years, Xie Zhixing's best skill is cooking noodles, and he is very familiar with cooking noodles at the moment. Although his arm was injured, it didn't affect his performance much.

Xie Xingwen watched from the sidelines filled with emotion. His son had changed so much, but he didn't feel it at all. He tried to find a topic: "I heard you moved out of school?"

"Yeah." Xie Zhixing put the cooked noodles into two bowls: "The dormitory is a bit noisy, so I can't study when I go back at night."

"It's fine to move out." Xie Xingwen nodded, and didn't know what to say after saying this.Fortunately, he is a Chinese teacher, but he is always very poor in words in front of his son. After thinking for a long time, he returned to the topic they talked about most often: "Is the money enough? If it is not enough, I will give you something."

Xie Zhixing is independent, and the relationship between father and son is tense. Every time the school starts, he pays enough living expenses for one semester at a time.

"No need." Xie Zhixing poured the boiled soup into a bowl and said, "I don't care if it's not enough."

The father and son sat in the living room facing each other eating noodles with two bowls at each end. Xie Xingwen's eyes lit up after taking a bite. He spent the whole day by himself just making do. He didn't expect his son's cooking skills to be better than his own.

Just about to boast a few words, I heard Xie Zhixing ask him: "What are people from the Du family doing here?"

Xie Xingwen was surprised, took a few mouthfuls of noodles and said, "Just ask me for a favor, what can I do?"

"Yeah." Xie Zhixing nodded, and told his father: "You and her are divorced, so don't associate with the Du family if you can."

Xie Xingwen was suddenly choked by the noodles, and looked up at Xie Zhixing in shock. Du Yong is the husband of Aunt Xie Zhixing. Although Xie Zhixing did not get along with his cousin Du Xin, he was always close to his aunt. Walk around, why is it suddenly not allowed to come and go, does Xie Zhixing know something?

Xie Zhixing pretended not to see Xie Xingwen's scrutinizing eyes, and said while eating: "I used to be ignorant, and she has her own family, so it's not suitable for us to associate with that place."

"Alright." Xie Xingwen agreed.

After talking about this, the two of them were cold again. He searched his stomach and remembered a recent incident: "The ceiling of your school auditorium fell down."

Xie Zhixing ate his hand, he didn't tell Xie Xingwen about his being injured and he just gave a faint "hmm" when he heard Xie Xingwen's question.

But I heard Xie Xingwen continue: "That is a project contracted by the Du family, and now the higher-ups are going to investigate the responsibility."

……

Xie Zhixing stayed at home for two days, and returned to school by car on Sunday afternoon. Just after the flag was hoisted on Monday morning, some classmates told him that Director Yao was called.

When she arrived at the office, Yao Suyun was still playing with the green plants on her window sill. When she saw Xie Zhixing coming in, she sat back in her chair and told him her purpose straight to the point: "This safety accident, the school has an inescapable relationship, you are the only one. As a victim, the injury is not serious, and the compensation you should have will not be small, and the school means that you should not pursue it any further."

Xie Zhixing raised his eyes to look at Yao Suyun, and asked, "Is it the school's intention or Director Yao's intention?"

Yao Suyun didn't expect him to ask such a question, so she glared at him and said, "Of course it's the school's intention. It has already been reported to the police and said that no one had an accident, it was just a bruise. When someone asks you, you know what to say."

Xie Zhixing sneered: "Director Yao thinks six stitches count as an abrasion?"

Yao Suyun looked at him, and said differently: "As a member of the attached middle school, you should think more about the school's reputation."

Xie Zhixing asked: "Is it for the school or for your Yao family?"

"If it's for the sake of the school, I should tell the truth. The school's project bidding drags the relationship through the back door, and the safety inspection is perfunctory. This time, the big thing is turned into a small thing. The next time it really kills someone, who will take the responsibility... "

"Zhixing." Yao Suyun interrupted him, and said in a slow tone: "Since you know that this is your aunt's project, you should think more about your family. You forgot when you were a child..."

"That's not my house anymore!" Xie Zhixing stood up suddenly: "I won't do what Director Yao said today, and whoever makes a mistake will be responsible for it, and even if I really didn't get hit, the Du family will definitely be punished." Pursue responsibility." Tong Shuo told him over the weekend that his superiors attached great importance to this matter, and that the cause of the matter was indeed that the construction party used inferior building materials.

Leaving this sentence, he opened the door and left. In his opinion, this kind of concealment is simply stupid.

As soon as he left the office, he bumped into someone. When he saw Xie Zhixing, he was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at the office logo. The corners of his mouth curled up viciously, and he mocked in a low voice: "What? I'm here to please him again, thinking that my grades will be better She will take care of you, will she take care of you?"

Xie Zhixing didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked around him to leave, but the man refused to let go, reaching out to grab his arm: "I heard that you were injured by the ceiling? Is it true or not? Are you here to sell miserably? Then you ……what are you doing?!"

Xie Zhixing grabbed his arm and pushed him to the corner, grabbed his collar with one hand and warned: "Kang Yanbo, it doesn't matter what I do, if you want to break a bone, try it."

Kang Yanbo's back was hit hard against the wall, and he grinned his teeth in pain. It didn't feel good to be grabbed by the collar of Xie Zhixing's shirt. When had he been treated like this before? He wanted to say something cruel but was afraid that Xie Zhixing would really beat him up After all, this guy can do anything, so after Xie Zhixing let go of him, he could only say "you wait." and left in despair.

Xie Zhixing moved his wrist and turned around, then turned his head and saw Tong Shuo standing by the window next to him.
