Lou's current residence is located in the villa area in the core area of the ancient city of the Imperial Capital. There are no more than 20 residences here, most of which are built on the sites of ancient state residences. The construction techniques perfectly inherit the traditional skills of the "Eight Masterpieces". Cultural relic-level buildings are not too much.
The economic development of China in the last century was not as good as it is today, and many projects are in urgent need of financial support. These old houses were put up for public auction in the name of the state to set up a special fund plan.
Although the homes of the owners of other houses are not as solid as those of the Lou’s, they are all well-known businessmen in the country. In order to help the state’s key support projects, the amount of transactions they bought for the houses actually far exceeded the actual value of the houses. Therefore, even though the families have lived in luxury houses for many years, they have never been criticized by the public.
When the vehicle drove into the ancient city, the old house near the natural lake at the back of the villa area was the residence of the Lou's family.
Li Zhiqing’s memory about this place is much richer than that of the Lou’s garden. Seeing the familiar sights passing by the car window quickly, Li Zhiqing always feels like a bunch of cotton dipped in water in his chest, and an expression pretending to be normal appears. Momentary loosening, just look out for a few seconds before looking away.
Fortunately, when he left the airport, he insisted that he did not ride in the same car with Shen Qiongyan, otherwise he might have to make his loved ones feel uncomfortable again.
Li Zhiqing took a deep breath and lowered his eyes to adjust his state. He was about to pinch his knuckles subconsciously, when the back of his hand was suddenly wrapped in a cool body temperature.
Li Zhiqing was taken aback, turned his head to the right, and slammed into You Chuan's dark and deep eyes.
You Chuan looked calm and didn't say a word. After covering the back of Li Zhiqing's hand, he didn't make any extra movements, but looked at him calmly.
This plot is somewhat familiar.
Li Zhiqing looked at You Chuan for a while, remembering that he was holding his hand in the same way on the way to the Loujia Garden to record the show. The few words that followed to comfort him were clumsy and clichéd, but they were surprisingly strange. It is reassuring.
Thinking of this, Li Zhiqing's eyes couldn't help but flew up.
He read "Three Two One" silently in his heart. Unsurprisingly, You Chuan opened his mouth when he counted to one. Li Zhiqing immediately spoke in front of him and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, although you are a big girl on the sedan chair today, The first time I go to our house officially, but with me, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
These are clearly the lines You Chuan said to him before, but now they are all snatched by Li Zhiqing to "comfort" the original owner.
You Chuan watched him speak to himself with a smile, and a smile slowly appeared in his eyes that hadn't been turbulent. Not only did he not feel helpless about Li Zhiqing's joking about him as a little wife, but instead he indulged and nodded his head and followed his words. Then: "Okay, you are here."
Seeing his cooperation in this way, Li Zhiqing's eyes curled deeper, even if the car stopped in front of the residential stairs, there was still a clear smile on his face.
Mrs. Shen Qiongyan and Mrs. Lou Yu arrived a little earlier than them. The car was still worried about whether the child would think about something messy to find his sins after returning home. Now I see Li Zhiqing and You Chuan through the car window. He put down the big rock in his heart only when he smiled.
The wind blowing in the north in winter is really unequivocal.
Li Zhiqing was blown with a cool breeze the moment he got out of the car. Before he had time to sigh, the ice knife that had caught him suddenly broke.
He looked sideways and saw that You Chuan happened to be walking in the direction the wind was blowing, using his height advantage to block the cold and cover Li Zhiqing tightly.
This instinctive awareness of protection makes it hard not to be moved. Shen Qiongyan stood on the steps to understand the interaction between the two and smiled.
She didn't know that You Chuan was not afraid of the cold, but she was relieved and feared that the two would be frozen, and was about to urge her. She didn't expect Li Zhiqing to see that she was still waiting by the door, and hurriedly said, "Grandma, you go first. Go in, it's too windy outside, don't catch a cold."
Shen Qiongyan felt hot when he heard the words, and couldn't bear to worry about his grandson, smiled and answered, turned and walked inside first with Lou Yu and his wife.
The heating in the main house is fully turned on. The main door is closed when no one comes in or out, which cuts off the cold air outside and the movement inside.
As soon as Shen Qiongyan and the others entered, Li Zhiqing clearly heard a few cheerful dog barks coming from the door, and before he stepped onto the steps, the dog barks gradually became brighter.
Li Zhiqing raised his head, and saw a shiny black dog flashing in the crack of the door, his ears slumped backwards, and the tail on his buttocks almost wagged a ghost. He rushed towards Li Zhiqing, and the posture was so violent that he followed him. It was the same when I went to the interview for "Emperor Records".
This time Li Zhiqing recognized it as a Labrador raised at home, called Black Hole.
The feeling of being warmly greeted by the dog shouldn’t be too great. Li Zhiqing said happily. He was about to make preparations to prevent being staggered by the black hole. As a result, the black hole suddenly braked at a place less than two steps away from him. He glanced at You Chuan cleverly, his tail still swaying hard, but the force he ran towards Li Zhiqing was much lighter.
Li Zhiqing easily caught the rushing big dog, bent down and rubbed the black hole's head vigorously, responding to the dog's enthusiasm: "Be good, really obedient."
The black hole groaned in his arms, poking out his tongue to lick Li Zhiqing's hand.
Li Zhiqing was so excited by it that he couldn't even care about the cold for a while. He wanted to slap two more on the black hole. You Chuan grabbed his coat collar directly from behind, and raised the person: "Go ahead. "
Li Zhiqing's hand was still on the black hole's head, and the whole person was like a little chicken, being carried into the door by You Chuan without any strength, causing the doorman outside and the servants inside to laugh together.
"Hey hey!" Li Zhiqing had been carried to the hallway by him to regain his freedom. He turned his head, and when You Chuan avoided his sight, he noticed that there was a small emotion in the other party's eyes, and he laughed "Puff".
What's the matter with this old god?How old can I be jealous with a dog.
Seeing that the servant waiting at the entrance was concerned about You Chuan’s cold noodles, he hesitated to come forward, took off You Chuan and his coat and passed them over, saying to You Chuan: "To be honest with you, you are not allowed to talk to me pissed off."
How could You Chuan breathe with him, naturally nodded.
"The first time I saw you, I thought your eyes looked like..." Li Zhiqing paused, and patted Black Hole's head with a smile, "Our dog."
You Chuan did not speak when he heard the words, and stared at Li Zhiqing for a moment. With his eyelids, he looked condescendingly at the black dog around Li Zhiqing's feet.
He looked at the black hole and snorted twice in his throat, moved behind Li Zhiqing's legs, raised his dog's neck and tilted his head towards You Chuan, and blinked the round black eyes blankly.
Li Zhiqing had previously thought about what would happen if You Chuan and the black hole appeared in the same frame. Now he looked up at You Chuan and then looked down at the black hole. He couldn't help but laugh.
You Chuan turned his gaze to him again, although he was still expressionless, but Li Zhiqing somehow felt that the other party seemed to be wronged. He shook his mouth to stop his laugh, and pulled him in, "I have nothing to do." It means that your eyes are too dark, and the eyes of the dog raised at home are also dark. I can't help but think about it."
He finally wanted to say "I don't think you are very similar to my dog", but then he thought of You Chuan's clingy and possessiveness, and then thought of the "loyal dog attribute" that fans ridiculed, and silently swallowed this word into his stomach. .
You Chuan still didn't speak, and reached out to touch his hair, showing that he understood what he meant.
Shen Qiongyan was getting older, not as strong as before, and felt a little tired after getting off the plane, not to mention the jet lag. After telling Li Zhiqing to drink the hot soup prepared in advance, he returned to the bedroom to rest.
In order to go to the film festival to cheer for Li Zhiqing in person, Lou Yu and his wife postponed their domestic work for a few days. After they got home, they had to fix up for a while before going to work with their respective companies.
Although Li Zhiqing slept a lot on the plane and didn't feel too tired, he had just returned home today and had a big emotional ups and downs. He worried that he would spend a lot of time at home and couldn't help thinking about it, so he decided to return to the room to make up for it. After a while, let your brain calm down completely.
Li Zhiqing's bedroom furniture used to be based on children's standards and could no longer be used. The adult bedroom was set on the opposite side of the old bedroom.
He put himself in the bed, patted the place beside him, and motioned for You Chuan to come over.
You Chuan lay down next to him obediently, wrapped his arms in his arms, did not kiss Li Zhiqing on the face like before going to bed, only took his chin and touched Li Zhiqing's hair lightly.
Li Zhiqing reached out and poked his chest: "Are you still awkward?"
You Chuan didn't speak.
"I didn't mean to associate you with the black hole." Li Zhiqing said.
You Chuan still didn't speak.
"It's just the eyes, I swear."
When Li Zhiqing raised his eyes again, You Chuan hugged him and moved slightly.
Li Zhiqing looked up at him in You Chuan's arms, and encouraged the other person to say it with his eyes.
You Chuan looked at him for a long while he wanted to say something, and finally he was willing to say what he said to Li Zhiqing: "You used to praise my eyes for good looks."
Li Zhiqing couldn't understand the meaning of You Chuan's words for a while, blinked an eye and pondered it for a while, and couldn't help but bury his face in You Chuan's chest after thoroughly understanding.
What You Chuan wanted to express is that Li Zhiqing used to praise his eyes for good-looking, is it because his eyes are similar to those of the family dog?
Li Zhiqing almost shivered with a smile.
The reason for the awkward relationship between the other party is that he boasted of his motives, and how could You Chuan be so cute even to be so cute.
"Is there anything wrong with boasting that your eyes look good?" Li Zhiqing smiled enough, took his face out of You Chuan's arms, and squeezed You Chuan's chin. "I really want to praise you because I really feel good-looking."
Hearing what he said, the awkwardness in You Chuan's eyes finally began to disintegrate. He gave a soft "um" and held Li Zhiqing tighter, kissed his forehead, and said, "Go to sleep."
Li Zhiqing followed with an "um" sound. As soon as he closed his eyes, he thought of You Chuan standing opposite the black hole, hiding his grievances and awkwardness and looking at him, but couldn't help but want to laugh.
He intended to close his eyes for a while, but he was so protected by You Chuan, Li Zhiqing actually fell asleep slowly, and opened his eyes dazedly until he felt hungry.
There is still some time before dinner in the evening. Li Zhiqing didn't want to miss the chance to have a meal with his family, so he only asked the kitchen to bring something that could cushion his stomach.
He didn't eat at noon, and the servants in the family were very attentive. They had prepared tea and snacks long before he woke up. They brought the food and other things in the meantime.
The servant put down the refreshment and handed Li Zhiqing a paper bag of papers: "Master, this is delivered by Miss Liu Ruyi in the afternoon. You were still resting at that time, so we didn't bother."
Li Zhiqing took the document, smiled and thanked him, threw a piece of yam cake in his mouth, opened the paper bag, and took out a neatly bound printed manuscript from it.
He flipped it through quickly. The information above was the information of two small well-known intelligence agencies in the country. These two people not only have extensive contacts, but also have strong analytical skills. At first, they profited by selling artist information to illegitimate rice. Later, he gradually started to do the business of deep-picking artists' dark history.
Wu Zhengyan bought the "black material" about Li Zhiqing by hiring these two talents.
Such people are generally related households. The more they know that they are breaking the law, the more concealed their business is, but it is a pity that the person investigating them this time is Lou Yu.
And Lou Yu gave the result to Li Zhiqing, obviously handing the initiative to Li Zhiqing and let him handle it in his own way.
The gentleman does not deceive the dark room. Li Zhiqing's way of solving problems has always been straightforward. After reading the information, he was thinking about how to start from the roots and directly destroyed the entire tree up, and found that there was an invitation letter in the paper bag.
Li Zhiqing opened his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully.
——This turned out to be delivered in the name of Wu Zhengyan's own grandfather.
