Chapter 254
Author: Shi Yan
"Mr. Jin, the water pipe over the grassland is broken. Do you need to ask someone to deal with it?"
Hearing that this was the case, Shu Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the maid coming over in such a hurry, she thought something big had happened.
Hearing that it was such an insignificant matter, Jin Zhixing frowned slightly, "Are there no other boys in the villa?"
The maid stood up straight, and then explained to Jin Zhixing: "The worker responsible for these asked for leave, so..."
As they talked, even the maid stopped talking.
Even she realized that it was unreasonable for her to come to her husband in such a panic over such a trivial matter.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jin." The maid hung her head in shame, and then added, "I'll take care of it right away."
Just when the maid thought the matter could be settled, Jin Zhixing suddenly asked, "Where are the tools?"
"Ah?" Faced with Jin Zhixing's question, the maid was obviously stunned for a moment, but she quickly responded and said quickly, "I'll get it right away."
After saying that, the maid went to get the tools as fast as she could, fearing that if she was late, she would be more guilty.
After watching the maid walk away in a hurry, Shu Yao looked at Jin Zhixing and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Can you fix this?"
Sometimes, even she herself didn't notice it.
Even if Jin Zhixing didn't say anything, she could understand what he wanted to do.
Just like now, Jin Zhixing clearly didn't say what he wanted the tool to do, but she could understand what Jin Zhixing wanted to do.
Jin Zhixing nodded and replied, "I rented a small house when I was starting a business in college. The water pipes were often prone to rupture in winter."
Stopping just right, Shu Yao could guess the environment during Jin Zhixing's entrepreneurial period, which also created Jin Zhixing's current skills.
The maid was very fast and came to Jin Zhixing and Shu Yao with a toolbox not long after their conversation ended.
Jin Zhixing took the toolbox from the maid and walked out of the door.
Shu Yao followed Jin Zhi to the grassland where the water pipe broke.
I saw Jin Zhixing squatting in front of the water pipe, repairing the water pipe in an orderly manner.
Shu Yao stood behind Jin Zhixing and watched quietly.
At this time, Jin Zhixing focused on the movements in his hands and was not distracted.
No matter what Jin Zhixing does, he takes it very seriously.
Suddenly the phone vibrated.
Shu Yao took his phone out of his pocket.
The caller ID on the screen reads "Hundred Number One".
It's Zhou Wencheng's phone number.
Shu Yao raised his eyebrows and waited for his phone to vibrate for a while.
Finally, I pressed the answer button just before it was about to automatically hang up.
"Yaoyao, what are you doing?"
Shu Yao moved the phone away from her ear and looked at the notes on the phone. The tone was different from what she usually heard.
I haven't heard Zhou Wencheng's voice for a long time, and now Zhou Wencheng's voice is a little hoarse, and he can feel exhausted just every day.
If it weren't for the remark, she probably wouldn't have heard it.
"What do you want from me?" Compared to Zhou Wencheng's almost flattering tone, Shu Yao seemed much colder.
"How have you been lately?" Regarding Shu Yao's indifference, Zhou Wencheng was not as angry as before, but asked with some caution.
Shu Yao walked to the bench next to him and sat down, playing with his fingers, "It's pretty good."
"Then..." Zhou Wencheng paused for a moment, "Are you still living at Shu's house?"
"What's wrong? Dad." When Shu Yao said the last two words, his tone became more serious.
Although he didn't say anything, anyone with a discerning eye could hear the sarcasm inside.
"It's nothing, I just want to ask how you are doing." As if he was afraid that Shu Yao would notice something, his tone changed.
"Grandpa is very good to me." Shu Yao only replied to Zhou Wencheng with a simple sentence.
But seeing that Zhou Wencheng couldn't come up with a few words for a long time, and Shu Yao was not a patient person, he then said, "If nothing happens, I will die."
With that said, Shu Yao wanted to hang up the phone.
"Don't!" Zhou Wencheng immediately raised his voice, trying to stop Shu Yao's movements with his voice.
As soon as Zhou Wencheng was anxious, Shu Yao's goal was achieved.
But Shu Yao was not in a hurry. She paused for a while holding the phone without hanging up, just hanging on to the person on the other end of the phone.
After seeing Zhou Wencheng really getting anxious, Shu Yao put the phone back to his ear again.
He said to Zhou Wencheng somewhat perfunctorily: "I'm sorry, the signal was a little weak just now."
"It's okay, it's okay." After hearing Shu Yao's words, Zhou Wencheng responded immediately, and then quickly continued typing, speaking the words he had already organized in sequence.
"You haven't been home for a long time, and we all miss you at home.
It was Dad's fault last time. Dad was impulsive. Don't blame Dad. Dad did this for your own good.
Your Aunt Lan has cooked a table of delicious food for you, when will you come back when you have time?"
Finally, Zhou Wencheng's real purpose for calling her was revealed.
Shu Yao scorned silently, but also followed Zhou Wencheng's words, "It may take a while. I have been working recently and can't get back."
Listening to Shu Yao's words, Zhou Wencheng on the other end of the phone was a little dissatisfied, and subconsciously retorted, "You only make this little money, so work is not as important as going home to eat."
After saying that, Shu Yao immediately heard the sound coming from the other end of the phone.
The movement was very small, but Shu Yao could still hear it clearly.
Soon, Zhou Wencheng said again, "It's not that dad is dissatisfied with your work, it's because he thinks you are too tired from work and you have to go home and rest for a while, right?"
Shu Yao was not surprised at all by the sudden change of tone.
After all, there is someone on the other end of the phone giving guidance, so it’s not surprising.
"Okay." Shu Yao said expressionlessly, "Then I will go back after a while."
"Hey!" Zhou Wencheng suddenly became excited and responded quickly.
However, within half a minute, Shu Yao heard Zhou Wencheng speak again, "How long will it take?"
"Well..." Shu Yao deliberately dragged his tone, "It depends on my time."
"How long will it take?!" Zhou Wencheng began to look a little irritable after he couldn't get an accurate time.
"Oops!" Shu Yao exclaimed, "It's my turn to play. I have to go to work first and talk about it later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Yao hung up the phone without hesitation.
He stared coldly at the interface on the phone screen.
She could think of the reason why Zhou Wencheng called her with her toes.
