Chapter 30 The Gap
Seeing that they were about to arrive in the 43rd District, Xu Bingbing did not stop the car to find a place to eat, but planned to drive to the 43rd District to find Chen Lan first.
At this moment, Tong Dayong's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Tong Xiaogang. He thought that these two guys must have had enough sleep and got up to eat before they remembered Chen Lan's visit to Shenzhen, so he pressed the button angrily.
Press the answer button.
"Tong Xiaogang, have you had enough sleep? Only now do you know how to call!"
"Brother, it's me!" Chen Lan's voice rang on the phone.
Tong Dayong's nose felt sore, "Stinky girl, where have you been? Brother is looking for you everywhere, do you know?"
"I...I've been home a long time ago, right at your residence."
"Then why didn't you call me?"
"Chen Lijun refused to be beaten, Tong Xiaogang was sleeping again, and I couldn't find his cell phone."
"Then how did you find our place?"
"I took a motorcycle and was about to find a landline to call you. Suddenly I saw Chen Lijun. He said he was going to pick me up at the station."
After all, they are brothers and sisters. Hearing what Chen Lan said, Tong Dayong felt warm in his heart, and his feelings towards Chen Lijun also improved a lot.
"Xiao Lan, I've told you several times that he is your brother, don't talk about Chen Lijun and Chen Lijun all day long." Tong Dayong said gently.
"No, you are my brother. He always bullies me and wants me to call him brother in the next life!"
Tong Dayong didn't want to argue with her at this time and asked: "Where are you?"
"You are at the Sichuan restaurant at the intersection of District 43, preparing to eat. Brother, where are you? Come over and have dinner with us."
"Okay, we'll be here right away."
"You guys? Who are you with?"
"Friend, I've been looking for you all morning. Okay, don't talk anymore, we'll be here right away."
Xu Bingbing, who was driving, heard the news about Chen Lan and breathed a long sigh of relief, "What's going on? Why didn't she call you in time when she was with Tong Xiaogang and the others?"
Tong Dayong told Xu Bingbing the reason for the incident.
"Your two brothers are really two weirdos." Xu Bingbing said with a smile.
The car had arrived at the intersection of District 43. Seeing that Xu Bingbing didn't want to get out of the car, Tong Dayong said, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to get out of the car?"
"You go and eat with them. Chen Lijun is angry with you because of me. Won't it make you more embarrassed if I go?"
At this time, Tong Dayong felt that Xu Bingbing was quite considerate and was definitely the Amei he met two years ago. However, she had changed so much in the past two years, changing her name and driving a car.
He suddenly couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Let's go, it doesn't matter. We can't escape this. Chen Lijun and I have this kind of relationship. It's impossible for you not to keep in touch in the future."
Xu Bingbing curled her lips, "It sounds like I really want to have a special relationship with you."
Tong Dayong smiled and said: "Take your time, don't be in a hurry. You will choose me or him in the end. We will talk about it later. Eat this meal first. You are so tired to help me find Xiaolan. If you don't even have a meal,
If I eat and leave, I will feel very sorry."
"Well, I also want to meet your sister." Xu Bingbing said and got out of the car with Tong Dayong and walked towards the Sichuan restaurant not far across the street.
When Chen Lan saw Tong Dayong and Xu Bingbing coming in, she stood up and ran to Tong Dayong to hug them. Tong Dayong said: "Smelly girl, you have grown so big that I don't want to hug them anymore."
"No, I just want to hug you. No matter how old you are, I am still your sister." Chen Lan said and opened her arms.
Tong Dayong had no choice but to hug her gently, and then looked her up and down again.
Long time no see, Chen Lan is getting more and more beautiful. The last time Tong Dayong saw her was almost three years ago. At that time, Tong Dayong had just returned home from the army, and Chen Lan came home to play during the holidays. The brother and sister got along for a while, and later
Tong Dayong came to Shenzhen to work, and Chen Lan went back to school, and they never met again.
After hugging Tong Dayong, Chen Lan turned his attention to Xu Bingbing next to him. Obviously, Chen Lan was also attracted by Xu Bingbing's beautiful appearance.
"Brother, who is this beauty?"
"Hello, my name is Xu Bingbing, and they all call me Ah Bing." Before Tong Dayong could introduce her, Xu Bingbing took the initiative to say hello to Chen Lan and extended her hand to her. It seemed that she liked Chen Lan very much.
Chen Lan also smiled at her and politely stretched out her hand to shake Xu Bingbing's hand, "Hello, my name is Chen Lan. Nice to meet you!"
"I know your name is Chen Lan, I've been looking for you all morning." Xu Bingbing smiled.
"Excuse me, it's all their fault. One didn't give me his cell phone to call you, and the other was sleeping in the house."
"Your brother is very worried about you, worried that you will be abducted by human traffickers."
Chen Lan blinked her big bright eyes, looked at Tong Dayong, and then said proudly to Xu Bingbing: "My brother has been most nervous about me since he was a child. Whatever delicious and fun things he has are left to me."
"Yeah, I can see that." Xu Bingbing agreed.
Tong Xiaogang, who was sitting in his seat, was a little impatient, "Come over and sit down to eat. I'm hungry."
Tong Dayong led Xu Bingbing and Chen Lan to the round dining table and sat down. Xu Bingbing deliberately sat next to Tong Dayong, which made Chen Lijun, who was sitting aside, feel even more unhappy.
The food has been served and everyone is hungry. They pick up their bowls and chopsticks and eat with gusto. There is only the sound of picking up vegetables and eating at the dinner table, and there is no usual chatting while eating at the dinner table.
However, in the second half, Chen Lijun's mood gradually eased, and he began to put vegetables into Xu Bingbing's bowl through Chen Lan, and flattered her.
The first time he brought the vegetables over, Xu Bingbing reluctantly accepted it, but the second time he brought them over, Xu Bingbing covered the rice bowl with her palms. There was no place to put the vegetables Chen Lijun brought over, so it was a bit awkward to hold them in the air.
.
Chen Lan saw everything with her eyes. She saw that Chen Lijun was interested in Xu Bingbing, but Xu Bingbing was not interested in him and seemed to be more in love with Tong Dayong.
"Give it to me." Seeing that Xu Bingbing refused to take the food from Chen Lijun, Chen Lan handed the bowl over to Chen Lijun to help Chen Lijun. Chen Lijun laughed and had to put the food on the chopsticks into Chen Lan's bowl.
Tong Xiaogang was very enthusiastic towards Chen Lan and repeatedly asked her to eat more, but Chen Lan was cold and indifferent to him.
The reason was not only that he did not pick her up at the station, but also that she saw the Jetta downstairs as soon as she arrived. When Chen Lijun casually told her about the origin of the car, she began to despise Tong Xiaogang.
In Chen Lan's mind at this moment, Tong Xiaogang is just a hard-earned guy who lives on charity from married women and thinks he is righteous.
In fact, she doesn't know that her brother Chen Lijun is actually not noble, and he and Tong Xiaogang don't have enough money to open a bar, but they are rarely involved in violations of laws and disciplines now.
In the past two years, there has been only one mystery in Chen Lan's mind, that is, how could someone like Tong Dayong break the law for a small amount of money? She had planned to solve this mystery before she came.
Originally, Chen Lan wanted to question Tong Dayong about this issue as soon as she saw him, but because Xu Bingbing was present, she couldn't bring it up.
In fact, Chen Lan was not the only one who had this doubt. Xu Bingbing also couldn't figure out why Tong Dayong was a man who came out of prison. No matter how he looked at it, Tong Dayong was a gentleman, and his conduct had nothing to do with illegal crimes.
