Porcelain industry leader

Chapter 36

A line from a TV series I watched two days ago suddenly flashed in Lu Qingchi's head, "You took away my first kiss!"

At that time, he almost burst out laughing when he saw the woman crying. He squinted and repeated the lines to the TV, so he was very impressed.

But he didn't have the nerve to say this, and walked towards the supermarket while smiling, "You haven't taken advantage of touching and kissing, so how can you take advantage of it?"

"If you think I took advantage of you, you can touch it back later." Song Yu knew that Gu Qingchi was not angry, so he also joked with him.

"Is there a charge?" Gu Qingchi took a bottle of soy sauce from the container, then squatted down to look for rock candy.

"No, you can touch it as many times as you want, as many times as you want, it's okay." Song Yu pretended to be very helpless.

"Idiot in the waves, you." Gu Qingchi was speechless.

As soon as Song Yu heard this, he immediately became happy, hugging the pillow and kicking his feet, laughing wildly.

"Qingchi?" Someone beside him patted Gu Qingchi.

Gu Qingchi turned his head and felt that this person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, so he nodded in a daze, "Yeah."

Song Yu asked, "Is there someone next to you?"

"Yes, I was shopping in the supermarket outside, and I met someone I knew, so I hung up first." Gu Qingchi said.

"Oh, good." Song Yu pouted and hung up the phone.

"Remember me?" Uncle still held a bottle of mineral water in his hand, and made a gesture of pushing something.

Gu Qingchi was stunned for a long time with his mouth open before he suddenly realized "Oh", "Uncle Zhou!"

"Hey, it's not easy, remember me." Zhou Jingzhong laughed happily.

"En." Gu Qingchi nodded sharply.

The person in front of him is the carpenter uncle who gave him the piggy bank back then. It has been almost ten years since he moved away from his hometown. He did not expect to meet him here. Gu Qingchi was very surprised and excited.

When he was young, he didn't have many friends. After finishing his homework, he often sneaked away to watch Zhou Jingzhong make things.

Watching him turn a broken piece of wood into a small boat, into a Monkey King, feels amazing.

Zhou Jingzhong brought a lot of joy to his childhood. In his impression, this Uncle Zhou has always been a very kind and kind person.

"Why are you here?" Gu Qingchi asked.

"My family Xiaoxiao works here, and bought a house here. My mother and I came to see her and tidy up the house for him." Zhou Jingzhong said with a smile.

"Oh, that's good." Gu Qingchi didn't have much impression of Zhou Xiao, because when he went to Zhou Jingzhong's house when he was a child, Zhou Xiao had already been studying abroad.

"How are you doing recently? Are you still studying?" Zhou Jingzhong remembered that Gu Qingchi had always been a child.

"I didn't read it anymore. My dad won't let me read it after I moved here." Gu Qingchi sighed, Zhou Jingzhong was a small tree hole in his past, he would tell Zhou Jingzhong about any unhappy things, so Zhou Jingzhong also knew He was expelled from school because of fighting.

"Then did you ask him why he didn't let you study?" Zhou Jingzhong asked.

"I asked, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, he said he couldn't read it anymore." Gu Qingchi lowered his eyelids and picked the soy sauce bottle in his hand. gone."

"Are you still living with him?" Zhou Jingzhong asked.

"That's right," Gu Qingchi thought the question was rather strange, scratched his head and said, "I don't have the money to buy a house."

"Then your father treats you well?" Zhou Jingzhong knew that Gu Qingchi had been beaten by his father since he was a child, and he often ran to him crying when he was a child. He also had trouble with Gu Jian because of this matter.

"It's okay, it's like that, I lose my temper and hit me twice, anyway, it's much better than when I was a child." Lu Qingchi smiled helplessly.

Although he has grown up now, he has learned to swallow his grievances and discomforts, and maintains a calm and calm appearance in front of everyone, but in front of Zhou Jingzhong, he still accidentally reveals his timid appearance back then.

Zhou Jingzhong heaved a long sigh, rubbed his head, and gestured in the air with his other hand, "I've grown taller, I was only this big when I was a child."

"Yeah, I'm a head taller than my dad now, and he's definitely not my opponent in a real fight." Lu Qingchi said with a smile.

"Qingchi," Zhou Jingzhong patted Gu Qingchi's back, "Then are you looking for a job now?"

Gu Qingchi honestly confessed to Zhou Jingzhong what he had done in the past few years, Zhou Jingzhong frowned and roared, "Gu Jian is a wicked person, I knew he wouldn't lead you to a good path, and it's fine if he doesn't do something right. Bring the child like this."

Gu Qingchi lowered his head and did not speak.

"A good kid, it's really useless to follow him." Zhou Jingzhong said angrily, "Give me his phone number, and I'll talk to him later."

"What are you talking about..." Gu Qingchi was a little panicked. When he was a child, Uncle Zhou almost got into a fight with his father just to fight for him.

"Talk about how to be a person," Zhou Jingzhong said, "You can't fall into his hands for the rest of your life."

Gu Qingchi didn't understand why Uncle Zhou suddenly became so angry because of him, outsiders would only sigh a few words when they heard these words, it was the first time he had to stand up for him, and besides, he was no longer the little brat he used to be.

He could already imagine his father seeing Zhou Jingzhong yelling at him for meddling in his own business.

I feel that there is no need to involve Uncle Zhou, it will make people unhappy.

"Uncle, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm already looking for a new job." Gu Qingchi said.

"Then leave me a phone number. If he dares to stop you from working later, call me. I'll tell him that he doesn't dare to do anything with me." Zhou Jingzhong said.

"Thank you uncle." Gu Qingchi said with a smile.

Although he felt that Zhou Jingzhong couldn't really help him, with these words, he was already quite moved.

"Go back and tell him that you met me on the road today." Zhou Jingzhong said.

Gu Qingchi frowned, not understanding what he meant.

"Just follow suit." Zhou Jingzhong said with a smile.

It was rare for Gu Jian to go home early in the evening, and he even brought back a roast duck and some cooked dishes from outside.

Gu Qingchi was going to cook a bowl of dumplings, but when he heard his father's voice, he ordered another plate, ready to talk to his father about finding a new job.

"Did you try the clothes on your table last night?" Gu Jian opened the bag of vegetables and put them on the table.

"Not yet, did you buy it for me?" Gu Qingchi responded in the kitchen, took out the first batch of dumplings and drained them.

"Yeah." Gu Jian grabbed a piece of duck meat and ate it.

Gu Qingchi mixed a small dish of sauce, and took out two bowls of dumplings, "Do you want the soup or the cold one?"

"Let's keep it cold." Gu Jian opened a bottle of beer.

"I met an acquaintance in the supermarket today." Gu Qingchi pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Who is it?" Gu Jian poured wine into the glass, and when the white foam was about to overflow the glass, he lowered his head and drank half of the glass in one breath.

"Zhou Jingzhong." Gu Qingchi reached for his chopsticks, raised his eyelids calmly to see his father's expression.

There was a moment of unnaturalness on Dad's face, but he immediately returned to a look of idleness, "Did he talk to you about anything?"

"We talked a lot." Gu Qingchi took a dumpling and dipped it in the sauce.

"What are you talking about?" Gu Jian glanced at his face while eating the dumplings.

"He asked me why I didn't study anymore," Gu Qingchi looked at his father, "then I said I didn't know."

Dad was silent for a while, then lowered his head and took a sip of his wine.

"Can I know the reason now?" Gu Qingchi said, "You used to say that I was ignorant, but now that I've grown up, I can always ask the reason."

"Eat your dumplings, why do you ask so many?" Gu Jian frowned, his tone was not kind.

"I just don't understand why other people's fathers are willing to share everything with their children. Now that I'm here, I can't ask about this and that can't be done. I'm already 23, and I still have to be controlled by you every day. Can I be a little free? " Gu Qingchi asked.

"Aren't you free yet? Have I ever cared about who you play with and when you go home?" Gu Jian asked back.

"No one wants to play with me at all! It's been like this since I was a child!" Gu Qingchi's voice trembled slightly when he said this, "Anyone who knows what's going on in my family will stay away from me. Those people I know are all You let me know you, the places you went to were all arranged by you, and every cent of the money I earned was handled by you, so where can I go freely?"

"I'm your father, don't fucking talk to me like that!" Gu Jian slapped his chopsticks on the table.

"I'm still your son! What can't you say? Why do you have to hide it from me?" Gu Qingchi frowned, "Even if you insist on letting me do things according to your wishes, can you let me Do you know why?"

"You know what, I won't hurt you anyway." Gu Jian said.

"I know you won't harm me, but I just want to live a simpler life, like those around me, I don't want to be looked down upon." Gu Qingchi said.

"Who the hell is looking down on you!?" Gu Jian pointed at him, "What did Zhou Jingzhong's grandson tell you? You started yelling at me as soon as you came back."

"He didn't say anything to me. These are my own thoughts all the time. I want to go out and find a decent job, and I don't want to spend my whole life guarding that broken mahjong parlor." Gu Qingchi said.

"What new job are you looking for? What good and decent job can you find? Kuhaha, how much money can you earn a month? If you don't have enough money, I can find you something to do for you. It's hard to get a good reputation with Lao Cao. You don't want to do it anymore?" Gu Jian said.

"I can't find a decent job because you don't let me study." Gu Qingchi retorted.

"That's because you fought at school first! If you didn't help others out, would you have been expelled from school! You're still yelling at me! I paid you all the money for your studies, and you still have the face to yell at me!" Gu Jian filled the glass with beer, and slammed the bottle on the table.

"Anyway, I don't want to be scolded as a bastard like you, and be worthless for the rest of my life." Gu Qingchi clenched his cup tightly, and transformed the long-standing resentment in his heart into the harshest words.

To quarrel is to stab a knife in the heart of the heart, this is what he learned from his father.

Gu Jian was so angry that his lips trembled, he picked up the wine bottle and threw it at Gu Qingchi.

Gu Qingchi raised his hand to block it, and the bottle bounced to the ground, bursting instantly, and the remaining half of the bottle of beer splashed everywhere.

"Tell me again, you kid!" Gu Jian picked up the glass on the table and threw it at Gu Qingchi.

Lu Qingchi brushed away the glass that almost hit him in the eye.

Once my father gets angry, he will only use violence to solve the problem. I guess if I say one more word, my father will overturn the whole table, and he will have to clean it up later.

Gu Qingchi held back his anger, raised his hand and wiped the beer off his face.

"Gu Qingchi, I'm going to tell you what I'm talking about today! I've paid for every penny you've spent on food and drink since you were a child. I didn't raise you so much to hear you teach me a lesson. Yes!" Gu Jian got up and kicked the chair away, "I've been worthless all my life, and I've grown you up anyway! You dare to come back and yell at me after hearing a random word from outsiders outside? You really think you've grown up Now, the wings are stiff, you can fly by throwing off your arms, right!"

"Whoever is gone in this world can't live!?" Gu Qingchi kicked the chair kicked by his father flying away.

"Get the fuck out of me!" Gu Jian slapped Gu Qingchi's chest, "Do what you think is promising, I'm going to see how promising you are!"

Gu Qingchi breathed out and clenched his fists.

"Still leaving!?" Gu Jian stared angrily, picked up the chopsticks basket on the table and threw it directly at Gu Qingchi.

Gu Qingchi rushed out of the room with red eyes, and slammed the door heavily.

There was a loud "bang" behind him, and the door seemed to be broken, but he didn't look back.

The old lady next door half-headed out of the window, saw his gaze, and immediately shrank in again.

Gu Qingchi ran all the way aimlessly, with chaotic wind in his ears, and all kinds of images of his father threatening him with violence from childhood to adulthood circulated in his mind.

I was so angry that the whole person was about to change shape.

Dad is such an unreasonable person, and he will never be able to communicate with him in a normal family communication mode.

Dad always has his own set of reasons, even if it's not true at all.

If you can't say enough people, start fighting.

Enough is enough.

Gu Qingchi didn't know how long he ran, how many kilometers he ran, until he was almost out of breath before falling down on the small lawn by the side of the road.

Throat is so dry that it hurts to swallow saliva.

Pedestrians passing by looked at him sideways, as if looking at a stray dog.

Gu Qingchi turned around and leaned against a big tree, panting with difficulty, his chest heaving and falling.

Dad must have something to hide from him.

Not only why he couldn't go to school, but also many things were kept from him.

In fact, even if Uncle Zhou didn't show up today, he would still bring up all these questions one day.

Just because he didn't say anything, doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist.

It is because of these ulterior little secrets that there will always be a crack in the relationship between him and his father.

He believed in his father, but his father did not believe in him.

This in the end is why?

A terrifying thought flashed through his mind, but he immediately rejected it.

impossible.

I have caused so many troubles since I was a child, according to my father's temper, if he was not his own, he would have been thrown away long ago, how could he reconcile with him again and again and bring him up.

Whoever is gone in this world cannot live.

It was easy to say this, but it was when he walked aimlessly on the street alone that he really felt the horror of loneliness.

A deep confusion and fear about the future flooded his chest.

Without a father, it means that there is no home.

No matter how broken the kennel was, at least it was a place where he could settle down.

If he really didn't go home, where would he go?

Although he always wanted to find a new life, he didn't really want to leave his father.

Hey.

irritable.

Gu Qingchi wandered to the place where Xianyan was renting, and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. After a phone call, he remembered that Xianyan told him yesterday that he would go back to his hometown to see his grandma.

"Say hello to grandma for me." Gu Qingchi leaned against the door and smiled, the other end of the phone sounded lively, as if many guests had come.

"Hey, we are having dinner, have you eaten yet?" He asked with a squinting smile.

"I've eaten." He didn't want to worry about his squinting eyes, so he hung up the phone without saying anything.

Gu Qingchi sat on the ground in a daze, his father's curse words kept echoing in his mind.

This quarrel was started by himself, and his father was so angry that he told him to get out.

Dad didn't let him get away no matter how noisy he was before.

Apart from squinting here, he couldn't find another place where he could stand uprightly.

Can only stay in a hotel.

Speaking of which, it was the first time for him to live in a hotel when he grew up.

I don't know if 200 yuan is enough for one night.

Whether it was enough or not, he was very distressed anyway.

Gu Qingchi counted the cash in his wallet, and there were more than 500 left. Even if he stayed in a hotel, it would only be enough for two nights, and he would not be back until next week.

Forget it, let's talk about it after tonight.

Gu Qingchi found a chain hotel that looked very ordinary, and the door was not very conspicuous, so it shouldn't look very expensive.

The receptionist was playing with his mobile phone when he heard a voice and raised his head and asked, "How many people are there? Is there a reservation?"

"Alone..." Gu Qingchi froze on the spot, "Do you want to make a reservation!?"

The front desk skipped his question and said, "ID card."

"Oh." Gu Qingchi opened the wallet, searched back and forth several times but couldn't find the ID card.

Is it lost?

No!

He recalled the last time he used his ID card...

Depend on!

The fucking pressure is on Song Yu!

When Gu Qingchi ran out, the receptionist stared at his back for a long time.

I don't know why, every time Gu Qingchi went to Song Yu's house, his mood would rise unconsciously, even at such a depressing moment like today, the thought of changing into the pair of slippers that would soon become his special slippers, the thought of being able to Seeing those little fishes, and thinking of seeing Song Yu, I felt warm in my heart.

He was very envious of Song Yu's life.

In the next life, you must have a good pregnancy.

Even a fish is fine.

Thinking about messy things along the way, he wandered to Song Yu's door without knowing it.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time.

Where can I go after nine o'clock?

When Gu Qingchi wanted to make a call, he found that his phone was out of battery.

He only ate one dumpling for dinner, and he was already very hungry, so he was going to go downstairs to buy something to pad his stomach.

As soon as I turned around, I heard the elevator "ding".

Song Yu came out carrying two bags of things. When he looked up and saw him, he was obviously startled, and his shoulders shrugged.

"Why are you here?" Song Yu's mouth immediately turned up.
