Chapter 65
No one expected that Bai Jiu would become so talkative.
If this situation happened before, it would be good if Bai Jiu didn't say a few words, apologizing?That's a fantasy.
This directly caused Mr. Bai to freeze in place for a while after hearing the apology.
However, he still remembered to maintain his majesty, so he straightened his collar and said seriously, "What's wrong?"
After listening to the scolding just now, Bai Jiu already understood the point of the other party's anger, so he said kindly: "I shouldn't run away from home, I shouldn't cause trouble everywhere, and I shouldn't make friends who are shady."
Mr. Bai's mood obviously eased a lot.
He coughed lightly, "That's right." Then he glanced over suspiciously, "Why are you so obedient this time? Has your sex changed?"
Is it good to say a few nice words?
Where is this going?
Mr. Bai looked at him with burning eyes, deep and distant eyes, Bai Jiu's heart froze, knowing that it was time to make up nonsense.
"Didn't I wander outside for a while, knowing that the society is dangerous..." Bai Jiu pretended to be wronged, lowered his head, and looked pitiful, "Dad, you don't know, I even eat outside Not full, and being bullied..."
He lowered his head and carefully raised his eyes to aim upwards. From this angle, it was even more distressing.
Mr. Bai's attention was successfully diverted: "Not enough to eat? Still being bullied?"
Bai Jiu nodded, looking like she was about to cry.
At this moment, Mrs. Bai joined the conversation. She obviously knew a little more than Mr. Bai, and she felt even more uncomfortable, "Ah Hao showed me the surveillance they found before. One night, Ajiu was forced to I'm going to graze..." She caressed Bai Jiu's cheek distressedly, when she saw that video, she almost wanted to bring him back and cook him a big meal immediately.
Was he even photographed eating grass?
Bai Jiu felt happy, in this case, his argument would be more convincing.
"Eating grass?!" Mr. Bai raised his voice unconsciously, "How can you eat that thing?!"
Bai Jiu's voice was muffled: "But I had no money at the time, and I was really hungry..."
Mr. Bai was silent.
Bai Jiu's card was sealed by him.
He frowned tightly, almost making a word "Chuan", "Then what's the matter with being bullied?"
"I had nowhere to go, so I found a place to sit, but a homeless man said I took his place and drove me away..."
At that time, Bai Jiu was really miserable.
Looking back now, he still feels wronged.
"You just left like that? Don't you know how to fight with others?" Mr. Bai felt a little bit resentful, "We have to fight for everything in this society now. How can you get along in society in the future?"
Why did it suddenly rise to preaching?
Bai Jiu responded with "Mmmm" twice, and seeing that Mr. Bai's anger had mostly subsided, she tentatively asked in a low voice: "Then, Dad, can we go to eat now?"
The topic jumped too quickly, and Mr. Bai choked up, but his reaction was very quick: "What to eat? Don't think I've forgiven you! Don't eat dinner, go back to the room and reflect on yourself!"
Bai Jiu let out an "ah".
do not.
But Mrs. Bai was relieved. She patted her chest and signaled Bai Jiu to leave quickly with her eyes.
……Fine.
Although there were some twists and turns, in the end he managed to muddle through. Bai Jiu sat down in his room, quite satisfied with his performance today.
It's just that I haven't eaten dinner, Bai Jiu is a little hungry now.
In the middle of the night, Bai Jiu was so hungry that he couldn't sleep, he quietly slipped out of the room and slipped to the kitchen door.
The kitchen door was closed, and Bai Jiu put his ear to the door to carefully identify it. After confirming that there was no one inside, he carefully turned the handle.
As soon as the door was pushed open a crack, a burst of fragrance hit the face.Bai Jiu sniffled, greedily inhaling the aroma in the air.
What is so fragrant?
Bai Jiu touched the stove in the dark. The induction cooker was on, and there was a small three-layer steamer on it, which seemed to be warming something.
It was too dark to see clearly, Bai Jiu turned around and closed the door, and then turned on the light.
He opened the lid of the pot, and on the first layer was a bowl of rice, because the rice was still hot because of the keep-warm mode.
Bai Jiu took out the rice with a tong, and opened the second layer.
On the second floor are a few small dishes, all of which are vegetarian dishes, and those that Bai Jiu ate a few extra bites at lunch.
Bai Jiu's mood became a little complicated.
The third layer was also opened. It was a pot of vegetable soup, with bright green vegetable leaves dotted in the soup. Just looking at it made people move their index fingers.
There is also a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the stove, not far from the steamer.And it stands to reason that there should be no chairs in the kitchen, but now, there is one in the corner.
Bai Jiu vaguely remembered that this chair was in the study next door.
He moved the chair over and sat on it for a long time without moving.
It was very quiet at night, except for the occasional sound of the wind and the chirping of cicadas.Bai Jiu's hearing is very good, so he keenly noticed that there was an extremely faint sound of footsteps coming from outside the door.
The sound of footsteps was steady and solid, but now it was played very lightly, and thanks to Bai Jiu's sensitive ears, another person might not be able to notice such a sound.
Bai Jiu's attention turned to the door involuntarily, he had already guessed who the person outside was.
But the other party didn't come in, he just stood quietly at the door for a while, and then left as quietly as when he came.After a while, Bai Jiu heard the sound of the door closing from the direction of the master bedroom upstairs.
There was no more movement after that, Bai Jiu turned around and grabbed the bowls and chopsticks that were placed aside.
The days are plain and fulfilling. During this period of time, Bai Jiu really felt the love from his parents.During getting along, Bai Jiu also discovered that although his father was always stern with him, he could always see concern in the details.
For Bai Jiu, who has never experienced the love of a father and a mother, this feeling is simply sinking.
Under the arrangement of Mr. Bai, Bai Jiu entered their company as an intern.Although it is an internship, everyone knows that Mr. Bai is paving the way for him.
From the attitude of the people around him, it can be seen that there are those who flatter him as soon as he comes up, and some who look down on him, but generally speaking, everyone respects him.
After all, you can't afford it, can't you?
But this attitude made Bai Jiu feel a little uncomfortable.
He still likes the way of getting along in Zhong Ge's shop before.
Speaking of Zhong Ge, Bai Jiu didn't forget him. Since Zhong Ge didn't let him buy the store, Bai Jiu simply invested money in that store as an investment.
After Mr. Bai knew about it, he turned a blind eye to this matter. It was just a small amount of money, and it would be good for Bai Jiu to practice his skills.
Everyone in the company thought that Bai Jiu was here to fool around. After all, they had all heard the name of the young master of the Bai family, and he was an ignorant young master.Some people even bet in private that the young master would lose his temper within two days.
But the facts were completely different from their expectations. Instead of losing his temper, Bai Jiu did a good job.
With strong ability and great background, Bai Jiu has been promoted all the way, and it didn't take long to reach a position that ordinary people can't reach in their lifetime.And Zhong Ge's shop also improved with Bai Jiu's support.
This made many people look at him with admiration. Although some people still think that these are all due to his father, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the young master of the Bai family is no longer an idiot.
Mr. Bai was very pleased.
In this way, after he retires, he can safely hand over the company to Bai Jiu.
A few months later, everyone in the wealthy circle knew that the young master of the Bai family suddenly realized that the prodigal son turned around, and in a short period of time he changed himself from a playboy to a wealthy elite.
But Bai Jiu herself was not that happy.
He suddenly discovered that he seemed to have forgotten his original purpose.
Isn't he breaking through?
Bai Jiu suddenly remembered something, raised his wrist, and called out the system panel.
I haven't looked at this panel for a long time, and now that I see it again, Bai Jiu feels a little strange.
After being in a daze for a moment, Bai Jiu's eyes regained clarity. He collected himself and looked at the checkpoint prompt.
[Hint 3: Sticking to your heart is the first priority. 】
Combining his own experience during this period, Bai Jiu gradually pieced together the purpose of this level.
The purpose of the checkpoint became clear, Bai Jiu stroked his train of thought, and gradually explained some things that he couldn't figure out before.
No wonder, he has been so smooth recently.
He had felt strange before, obviously he had just come into contact with those company affairs, and he obviously didn't understand some things, but when he tried to do it, he succeeded without exception.
After living in human society for so long, Bai Jiu also understands some truths, no one can go smoothly, and it is very abnormal for him to be so smooth.
But if the system is giving him cheats, then everything makes sense.
It is easy for people to relax their vigilance to be born in sorrow and die in peace, and to give him a comfortable environment after he has experienced a poor life.
He did let his guard down, too.
It shouldn't.
Bai Jiu woke up suddenly, and he began to reflect on himself, when did he come up with the idea of being content with the status quo.
The care of the family, the peace of life, the smoothness of work, these things are like candy, tempting children who are eager for it.
To be honest, these things are indeed very attractive to Bai Jiu, and he even thinks there is nothing wrong with staying here.He can live here without any worries, enjoy his life as a real "little master of the Bai family", and have a perfect journey.
The family is harmonious and the career is going well. If there is another perfect lover, maybe this can be called "happiness"?
Can he... stay here?
This thought flashed through Bai Jiu's mind, but in the next second, he denied it again.
No.
Why not?
Bai Jiu asked himself, and an answer quickly appeared in his mind - there is no Xiao Si here.
Bai Jiu's eyes flickered, and his expression became depressed.
Xiaosi...he misses him very much.
Even for Xiao Si, he couldn't stay here.
He has to go out.
He wants to see him.
