At this time, the little boy also saw Shen Xing, and his expression was startled, clearly recognizing him.

However, the little boy immediately shrank his neck and turned his head, not wanting to talk to Shen Xing, and even pretended not to see him.

After paying for the green onions, the two people, who were supposed to be father and son, held hands and left. During this period, the little boy turned back and glanced secretly in Shen Xing's direction, and Shen Xing saw it.

Shen Xing was confused as to why he behaved like this.

Going to the 7th floor of Jincheng Building to check was just Shen Xing's impulsive behavior. If it weren't for Feifei's sudden words, he wouldn't have thought that Ye Ting in the video might be paying attention to the position of the probe.

However, the seventh floor of this building is indeed a bit weird. First of all, when the voice-activated light in the corridor went out last night, the security door next door suddenly opened a crack.

Then no one came out of the room, and no one spoke, giving off an inexplicable strangeness.

Then there is the behavior of this little boy. He obviously saw him last night, but he pretended not to recognize him, as if he was hiding something.

Shen Xing decided to go and take another look. There must be a reason why Ye Ting looked in that direction in the video.

After buying groceries and leaving the vegetable market, I happened to meet a newspaper seller at the intersection. The guy was shouting, "Two copies of Yungu Evening News and Metropolis News only cost one yuan."

Normally, these two newspapers would be sold for one piece each. It was almost dusk now, and the newspaper seller still had a lot of newspapers that he had not sold. He couldn't help but feel a little panicked, so he sold them at half price.

Otherwise, if the unsold newspapers accumulate, I am afraid that the evening paper will really have to be sold until the evening.

Originally, Shen Xing seldom read newspapers, but when the newspaper seller shouted, he gave him a dollar and took away two newspapers. He thought that he would buy one every day if he had nothing to do in the future. Sometimes it would be convenient to use it as a cushion on the workbench. some.

Carrying the vegetables and the newspaper, she returned to the Ivy Community. The door facing the stairs on the third floor had been opened. Feifei stood alone at the door and looked forward to it.

"Why did you open the door when you were alone at home?" Shen Xing said a little worried when he saw this.

Feifei said: "Everyone here knows me, there is no danger."

"Who said that?" Shen Xing replied, remembering that her mother Lin Wanru was beaten to death by the tall man in the house without her noticing.

After entering the house and closing the door, Shen Xing handed two boxes of eggs to Feifei and put them away. He went to the kitchen to wash the vegetables, cut what needed to be cut, and put what needed to be plated. After the preparations were completed, Feifei put on a small apron. He came carrying a wooden stool.

All the rest of the work was left to her.

After Shen Xing told him to be careful and safe, he went to sit on the sofa in the living room and rest.

After a while, the sound of cooking came from the kitchen, and everything seemed orderly. It was obvious that Feifei was indeed an expert at cooking.

A smell of oil smoke soon spread into the living room.

Shen Xing frowned, opened the window in the living room, then closed the bedroom door to prevent the fumes from entering, and said to Feifei: "Feifei, turn on the range hood."

"It's broken a long time ago." Feifei's childish voice came out.

"Turn on the ventilation fan." Shen Xing came to the kitchen door and prepared to turn on the ventilation fan.

"It's broken too." Feifei said while busy.

Shen Xing was stunned, "I'll ask someone to repair it tomorrow."

"You should go out first, the smell of smoke is very strong in this kitchen." Feifei reminded.

Looking at her busy look, her tone and actions at this moment are completely incompatible with her current age, making her look like a little adult.

Shen Xing couldn't help but smile, opened the kitchen window wider, and then returned to the living room.

I picked up the newspaper I just bought and flipped through it, because reading news on mobile phones has become very convenient. Nowadays, few young people read newspapers anymore. Most of the people who buy newspapers are middle-aged and older.

Shen Xing flipped through it a few times, his eyes narrowed, and he laughed and cursed: "Damn it, no wonder two copies only cost one dollar?"

The evening newspaper in his hand has been turned to the middle position at this moment, but it should have been the content of the sixth page. At this moment, the page is clean, there is nothing, and not a single typeface is printed.

Putting down the evening newspaper, I picked up the city newspaper and flipped through it. Sure enough, it was also in the middle, and there was once again a page with nothing on it.

A closer look shows that the sixth pages of both newspapers are empty.

"This newspaper seller is unscrupulous!"

Usually, if one page of a newspaper is misprinted, or is upside down, or has a blank page, there is a high probability that there was an error during printing.

It could be a printing machinery failure, or it could be human negligence, no one knows.

It's just that Shen Xing's luck was so good that he made both mistakes in the two newspapers.

The newspaper seller must have picked out the two erroneous copies on purpose, put them together and sold them at a low price, and then he fell into the trap.

Shen Xing remembered that that guy seemed to often walk around here selling newspapers. There was a high chance that he would run into this guy. He would definitely ask if he saw him next time.

But then I thought about it, and I didn't have the time to think about such a trivial matter.

"Put away the coffee table and let's eat." Feifei's voice came from the kitchen at this time.

Shen Xing immediately stood up and moved the things on the coffee table, and then threw the misprinted newspaper on the surface of the coffee table, so that if it got dirty while eating, he could just throw it away without having to clean it up.

After a while, the food was served. Feifei fried a tomato and scrambled egg, a garlic cabbage, and boiled a mashed potato soup. When it was brought to the table, the aroma suddenly filled the air.

Shen Xing prepared a large bowl of rice for herself, while Feifei used a small bowl for children.

She had still not taken off her apron, and she was sitting there with her little body upright, looking like the little mistress of the room.

Shen Xing couldn't help laughing and reminded: "Take off your apron and eat quickly."

"No, I have to wash the dishes later." Feifei shook her head while picking up the vegetables.

"I'll clean up after you finish eating, so you don't have to worry about it." Shen Xing took a bite of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, put it in his mouth, and muttered.

"Is it delicious?" Feifei asked.

"It's delicious, much better than my fried egg fried rice." Shen Xing praised it without hesitation.

After saying this, he picked up another chopstick of cabbage with garlic paste and put it into his mouth, then he looked stunned.

"What? Isn't it delicious?" Feifei asked nervously from the other side.

Shen Xing's slightly frowned brows quickly relaxed and he kept nodding his head and said: "It's delicious, it's delicious. I ate too fast just now and knocked my teeth."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the plate of baby cabbage in front of him. It looked very good, the leaves were emerald green, and the vegetable oil was smooth and shiny. However, there was too much salt, and it even tasted salty and bitter to Shen Xing.

No wonder...

Shen Xing remembered that Feifei herself had said that her mother once pretended not to know and applauded her while eating when she added too much salt.

That scene appeared in his mind, and he unconsciously compared it with the current scene, and he smiled like an old father again without realizing it.

Then the smile froze on his face.

Just listen to Feifei say: "If it's delicious, you should eat more. You have to finish the food and don't waste it. When I was in the orphanage, the volunteer aunts had to supervise us to do the CD-ROM operation every day."
