Chapter 17 "He Owes Me"

The midday sun was just right, shining on the young man's cheeks.

"I also had a younger sister before." Fang Ji said, "I'm a little older than her, and a little taller." He compared his height as he spoke, but his memory was too vague, so he wasn't sure.

Yan Kai had heard a little bit about this point, Fang Ji was not the only child in the family, the family situation was more complicated, it seemed that he had a brother or sister who was a few years younger than him, who was the child of his stepfather, and had no blood relationship with him.

Yan Kai is not from Li County, so he doesn't know much about it.

But Fang Ji used the word "before", and he guessed that Fang Ji might have lost contact with his stepfather's family later.

Seeing the girl holding onto Fang Ji's hand and not letting go, Yan Kai hurriedly said, "Strictly speaking, we agreed, I will take you out only if you are obedient."

The girl let go of her hand reluctantly, raised her head to look at her own brother, then lowered her head in disappointment.

Yan Kai: "Hey, no, what do you mean? Dislike your brother for being too good-looking?"

The girl didn't speak, but proved everything with practical actions, and stared at Fang Ji with a pair of eyes.

Fang Ji stood up, stretched out his hand hesitantly and patted the top of the girl's head, very lightly, as if afraid of breaking it, "It's hot outside, let her stay in the shop."

Yan Kai quickly waved his hands: "No, no, we just came back from the hospital and we will be going back soon, brother, you are busy with your work."

Fang Ji went to the opposite supermarket and bought a lot of snacks. Yan Kai couldn't refuse his kindness, so he had to keep asking his sister to thank him.

The girl sat on a bench under the shade of a tree and ate ice cream, and the two stood in the shade of the eaves and talked.

Fang Ji asked: "How is it? Did you find anything in the hospital?"

"I took a film, and the results won't come out until Friday." Yan Kai glanced at his sister, "She... has some mental problems, and I can't tell what's wrong with me."

Fang Ji nodded, feeling it when he was talking to the girl just now.

Yan Kai wiped his face: "It shouldn't be a big problem. My mother also came with me. I usually have her to take care of Gege when I go to work. Brother, thank you very much. If I didn't meet you, I don't know what to do next I will pay you back the money I owe you as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, I've already told Xiao Zhou."

When Fang Ji said this, Yan Kai suddenly remembered: "By the way, Ji Shizhou didn't make things difficult for you, did he? I was in a hurry that day, and later I forgot to ask about my sister. How are you two doing?"

What is "how"?

Fang Ji couldn't say well, he licked his lower lip and hurriedly replied "No".

He was about to forget it, but when Yan Kai mentioned it, he remembered it again.

Xiao Zhou would only use his hands and feet when he was drunk, but usually he would not.

Just like the day before yesterday when we returned to the apartment from Chi Jie's store, the two of them were very harmonious, and fell asleep together after washing up. Ji Shizhou didn't put his hand on his chest, nor did he call him "brother" in a daze, but just woke up in the morning , holding Fang Ji in his arms with long hands and long legs.

But this is also normal.

It's not normal for Xiao Zhou to call him brother!

Thinking about it this way, Fang Ji inevitably blamed Yan Kai for this responsibility. It was Yan Kai who followed behind him and kept shouting "Brother, brother", and Ji Shizhou finally listened to him.

Yan Kai didn't know that he had taken the blame at all, so he kept saying, "Brother, why are you still working in the bar?"

Fang Ji replied: "I will resign after this month."

"Why?" Yan Kai's expression changed, "Could it be because of Ji Shizhou, he even takes care of your work?" This creditor is too lenient!

"Originally, I wouldn't work for too long. Xiao Zhou will move out soon, and I have to go back to cook at night, so I don't have much time."

Yan Kai had a complicated expression: "Is he going to live with you?"

Fang Ji nodded, and seized the opportunity to explain: "Xiao Zhou was the one who found the apartment, and we each paid half of the rent."

Yan Kai nodded hesitantly: "Oh."

But he still finds it very strange. He walked with Fang Ji in the middle of the night before, and he has seen the appearance of that neighborhood. It is a well-known high-end apartment nearby, and the rent must be high.At that time, it was only when Fang Ji was doing well, since he knew that Fang Ji owed Ji Shizhou a lot of money, he wondered if this was Ji Shizhou's new method of oppression?Didn't Ji Shizhou really own that apartment?

Yan Kai couldn't hold back and asked: "But the rent is so high, isn't it completely unnecessary..."

Fang Ji said frankly: "Xiao Zhou chose the place. He thinks it's fine. I don't have any requirements on where to live, and the apartment is very good."

Yan Kai really wanted to pry Fang Ji's head open to see if his elder brother had really been brainwashed, why his mind was full of Ji Shizhou, and Ji Shizhou was the main focus of everything, this is obviously very wrong, okay? !

As the saying goes, those who are obsessed with the authorities are clear to the onlookers, and Yan Kai couldn't remind too much, he only mentioned one vaguely: "Who will pay the rent?"

Fang Ji pursed his lips, "Xiao Zhoufu."

look! !

look! !

Yan Kai roared in his heart, that must be Ji Shizhou's own house, and the purpose was to collect more money from Fang Ji.Of course Ji Shizhou is not short of that little money, but based on his impression of Ji Shizhou, the two of them had such an argument at the beginning, he really might not let Fang Ji go.

Now it is a painful experience, it is a naked revenge, it is to make Fang Ji unable to turn over for the rest of his life, and live under his slavery forever!

"The rent is settled in one lump sum, and Xiao Zhou has already paid it all..."

Yan Kai was still immersed in his own thoughts, and didn't listen to Fang Ji's speech at all.

Until Fang Ji showed his fist and asked him: "Did you hear what I said?"

"I heard it." Yan Kai immediately laughed like a dog, "Brother Fang, you have worked hard all these years."

Fang Ji could feel Ji Shizhou's feelings better at this moment.

Thanks again to Xiao Zhou for being merciful over the years, he never hit him directly, at most he just hugged him under his arm and pinched him randomly.

"Stay away from me." He took a step back to prevent Yan Kai from getting closer.

Yan Kai froze, and then he heard Fang Ji say, "Xiao Zhou, don't let me get too close to you."

Take a look!

have a look! !

It also restricted Fang Ji's personal freedom!

His heart is sinister, and his heart can be punished!

Yan Kai's eyes became painful, and he still said the same thing: "I will pay back the money as soon as possible."

Fang Ji lowered his face completely, "You're not listening to me at all."

##

Later, Fang Ji and Ji Shizhou made a phone call and specifically reported the situation at noon, saying that Yan Kai brought his younger sister to see him.

His thinking is very simple, as long as he takes the initiative to report, Xiao Zhou will not be angry.

As expected, Ji Shizhou didn't say anything, he just asked him, "Does that junior of yours have a girlfriend?"

Fang Ji said: "No, he seems to like Yu Na."

"Yu Na is your colleague from the bar?"

"Yes." After Fang Ji answered, he added, "Yan Kai said he would pay back the money as soon as possible."

"I'm not worried about this, you don't need to report to me." Ji Shizhou turned the pen in his hand, "By the way, there is one more thing."

"Ok?"

"I have an idea of ​​the dog's name." Ji Shizhou said, "It's called Yuanyuan."

The phone fell silent, and Fang Ji realized that the other party was waiting for him to speak, so he responded quickly.

He said, "Okay, I remember."

Ji Shizhou slammed the button of the ballpoint pen on the table with two "clicks, clicks", "It's nothing, I'll hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Ji Shizhou looked expressionlessly at Jiang Xinrou who was smiling, "You like work so much?"

"No." There were only the two of them in the meeting room, Jiang Xinrou smiled blatantly, "I like to see you deflated."

Ji Shizhou temporarily put down the form in his hand, and said casually, "I went to see Chi Jie the day before yesterday."

Jiang Xinrou's smiling expression froze for a moment.

Ji Shizhou lowered his head and continued to browse the content on the form, but Jiang Xinrou couldn't hold back and asked, "He's back?"

"Yeah." Ji Shizhou didn't look up, Jiang Xinrou felt his teeth itch with hatred.

Why do some people think he is easy to talk to?It's obviously more difficult to deal with than when I was in high school. At most, I ignored people in high school. Now I look like a fox, shrewd and perverted.

Let's not talk about Chi Jie's return to Shucheng for now, Jiang Xinrou took this opportunity to say to Ji Shizhou: "Fang Ji still thinks we have been together before."

Only then did Ji Shizhou raise his head, "Do you mind?"

Jiang Xinrou frowned disapprovingly, "Aren't you going to make it clear to him?"

Ji Shizhou asked, "Why did you say that?"

"You can't keep misleading him. Besides, I don't like Fang Ji anymore. I didn't like Fang Ji a long time ago. You don't need to be wary of me."

"At first you wanted to pretend to be a couple in front of Chi Jie, and I cooperated." Ji Shizhou tilted his head and looked at her with curiosity, "I never admitted it in school, and neither did you. What's bothering you?"

Jiang Xinrou didn't look at him, she always felt that those eyes were evil, the pupil color was too light, and the emotion was too weak, making people unable to see the truth.

She just shook her head.

"Then why do you care whether I talk to Fang Ji or not?"

"Because the reason why you cooperate with me is to see Fang Ji's reaction." Jiang Xinrou still said, "You have seen it, Fang Ji sincerely wishes you well."

"Well, it's the same as Chi Jie."

Jiang Xinrou's complexion suddenly changed, "That's because he saw through..."

Ji Shizhou nodded, a little smile remained on his face, "It's also a temptation, what's the difference between you and me?"

After half a minute passed, Jiang Xinrou replied: "At least I'm not as despicable as you."

Ji Shizhou folded his hands and waited for her to continue.

"Let Fang Ji come to Shucheng. The house and job are not his own. You circle him and only move within your sight range. Once there is any behavior that is out of line, you have to drag him back and let him admit it. Wrong...Ji Shizhou, don't you think you are too distorted like this?"

"What's wrong? He owes me."

Jiang Xinrou flinched.

Not only because of Ji Shizhou's tone, but also because he was right.

Fang Ji left the family he cared about the most, his mother and younger brother, in Li County, and willingly followed Ji Shizhou to Shucheng.

It was Fang Ji who owed Ji Shizhou.
