"Xiaojiao came to my room just now to look for me." Suman said straight to the point.
Lou Shiming nodded and told her to just speak directly.
"Xiaojiao said you won't buy her a hairpin, a hairpin worth 200 yuan." Suman was not polite and polite, "Boss Lou, are you out of money?"
"..." Lou Shiming frowned, "Did she tell you that? But she never asked me for a hairpin!"
He tried his best to lower his voice, not wanting Lou Xiaojiao to hear him, "Although my business is not good now, I won't be able to get out two hundred yuan. Xiaojiao, can you tell me which brand it is? I'll give it to her tomorrow. purchase."
Suman told him the brand, looked at him for two seconds, and then asked him, "Does Xiaojiao usually lie to you?"
Lou Shiming shook his head violently, "How is this possible? Xiaojiao is the most well-behaved child. She can't lie to me!"
He mentioned countless advantages of Lou Xiaojiao in one breath.
Suman interrupted him and indicated that she knew everything.
When she was about to go back, she inadvertently caught sight of a book scattered on the table in his room. She asked casually, "Are you reading?"
Lou Shiming followed her gaze and glanced back, then said, "It's not a book, it's some notes written by my father and my grandfather."
He said politely, "Do you want to read it? It's just some dry text, quite hypnotic."
"Then you're welcome. I quite like reading." Suman would not miss anything that could reveal clues.
Lou Shiming, "..."
As he turned around to get the book, he muttered in a low voice, "I took my polite words seriously."
When Suman took the book and was about to go back, Lou Shiming couldn't help but stop her again: "Miss Su, I'm not urging you, but about that letter... Look, we seem to have done nothing today. "
Suman's attitude was more like she was just having fun. She didn't seem to hear anything useful from Suman's mouth. She just heard her doubting this and that, and even his Xiaojiao was involved.
"I won't let you spend more money anyway, so what are you worried about?" Suman gave him a strange look, not understanding, then shook the notes in his hand, "I'm going to rest, see you tomorrow."
After Suman returned to the room, she took the note and read it. She didn't have much hope at first, but it really made her see a very important point.
She had marked that page specifically, and if what the notes said was true, then everything would make sense.
Lou Xiaojiao may not be Boss Lou’s child, but Boss Lou doesn’t even know!
The next day, Suman got up and went downstairs. The teahouse had already opened. Lou Shiming and Lou Xiaojiao were not there. The employees said that Lou Shiming had sent Lou Xiaojiao to school.
"He sent Xiaojiao to school?" Suman paused as he walked downstairs and asked again.
The waiter nodded, "Yes, today is a working day, Xiaojiao should go to school."
"When did Xiaojiao start going to school?"
"Xiaojiao has been going to school since I came here five or six years ago...it must have been many years." The waiter didn't remember clearly.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Seeing Suman staring at him strangely, the waiter felt confused.
"It's okay, just get busy." Suman shook her head and continued walking downstairs, but after taking two steps, she stopped again, "Wait a minute, did you receive any letters yesterday?"
When it came to this, the waiter was afraid. He nodded, "I received so many more that I didn't dare to look at them, so I threw them all away."
"Where was it thrown?"
"I didn't dare to throw it away near home, so I threw it in the trash can on the way here."
When Suman found the trash can, he was surprised to see someone already digging through the trash can.
The man was old and lame, and his clothes were sloppy, but he didn't look like a homeless man.
Because he didn't look through anything else inside, what he held in his hand were the letters Suman was looking for.
Every time he found a letter, the joy on his face would expand, as if he had found some treasure.
And he had no intention of opening the letters. He folded them all together and stuffed them into his inner pocket.
"Sir, may I see your letter?"
Suman walked over and stopped the man.
When the man heard what she said, he became vigilant. He pressed his pocket calmly and pretended to be stupid: "Letter? What letter? I don't know what you are talking about."
"It's the letter you just picked up." Suman repeated patiently.
"Gungun, I don't know what you are talking about. I didn't pick up the letter!" The man pushed Suman's shoulders and pushed her to stagger.
He cursed and walked away, but the next second, he felt a heavy weight on his leg. When he looked down, he saw a ball of black smoke on his leg. He cursed even louder, "What the hell? I'm so annoyed, who?" What are you burning again? Such big smoke!"
That smoke is naturally Suman's Tianming dog.
Suman clasped her hands behind her back and said obediently, "Sir, while I am still able to speak, I advise you to show me the letter."
"I said, no... Hey, what is this thing? Why did you bite my leg!! Ah! My leg!!" The man screamed twice and fell to the ground holding his leg. The small ball The black smoke actually 'bite' his legs through!
He was scared and looked at Suman with fearful eyes, "Is it you? I was wrong. I'll show you the letter. Just show it to you!"
He wailed, "My only good leg!"
He trembled and took out the envelope, "I'll give it all to you. If you want to see it, I'll show it to you!"
Suman took it and opened the envelope and asked, "Why did you pick up these letters?"
"I just watched these unopened letters and peeked into other people's secrets. How fun it was!" The man was scared and in pain. He screamed. While Suman was reading the letters, his eyes rolled and his head limped. He yelled and ran away without replying.
Tianming Dog tilted its little head and glanced at Suman. Suman glanced at the man's running back and shook his head, "No need to chase."
If that man had something to do with Xin, he would appear near her again.
If he doesn't show up, it proves that he might really just be an irrelevant pervert.
The Tianming Dog is mainly used by her to protect herself, but she cannot let the Tianming Dog disappear from her sight.
Suman has read the contents of those letters one by one. There is nothing new, just repeated reminders that I really want to see you.
But there was one item she had never seen before.
——Are you happy to have grown up?
She just heard something similar to this sentence yesterday.
Is it a coincidence?
Putting away the letter, Suman returned to the teahouse.
And at a corner far away from her, the lame man peeked out his head and watched her disappear before sliding along the wall and sitting on the ground. There was a leather bag next to him. He opened the bag, which contained unopened letters. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled, "Fortunately, I was smart and didn't take you there."
