Caring for brother

Chapter 9

When Xu Shengyao arrived with Secretary Yu, the Xu family's lawyer had just stopped the car.The two parties met in front of the police station, and the lawyer advised Xu Shengyao to stay in the car. After all, if Xu's president was photographed entering and exiting the police station, which newspaper or media he stabbed would affect his reputation.

How can Xu Shengyao listen to the persuasion: "If Xu's public relations team can't even suppress this kind of news, then what is the use of raising them?"

Secretary Yu gave the lawyer a helpless look behind Xu Shengyao's back. The two looked at each other, and followed him honestly into the police station.

In order to keep a low profile and not leave a negative impression on the police, Xu Shengyao didn't let the bodyguards follow him.It's a pity that he underestimated his strong aura, and the standard equipment on him that belonged to a domineering president - back hair, glasses, long windbreaker and shiny leather shoes. Behind him were two boys carrying bags in suits and leather shoes. It seemed that someone had stolen his wallet on the road and came to report the crime.

So when they walked into the police station, both the person who reported the case and the policeman who handled the case immediately noticed the three of them, and the silence swept across the entire police station like a rapidly spreading virus. After 30 seconds, a policeman stood up and asked what they were here for.

Naturally, the lawyer came forward at this time, and in a few words made it clear who they were here for. When the police heard that they were looking for Ye Fan, their expressions changed immediately.Everyone saw Ye Fan bringing five or six bodyguards into the door just now. This one seemed to come to help him. He brought fewer people than Ye Fan, but he was more imposing than him. I don't know what his identity is.

He led them to the office. As soon as the door was pushed open, a hot air filled his face. It was only after the heat dissipated that Xu Shengyao saw the situation in the office clearly.Contrary to what he imagined along the way, Ye Fan, surrounded by bodyguards, was smiling, holding a two-year-old melon-haired boy in his arms, who was devoting himself to eating half a sausage , the sausage bits were all on his cheeks.A shiny black puppy next to him looked greedy and anxiously stretched out his paws to scratch the boy's waist. Ye Fan patted his head and reprimanded him, "Didn't you eat it just now?"

A female policeman squatted on the ground, holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other, and asked the boy questions in a soft voice, but the boy couldn’t answer when he was eating, and because he was young, he couldn’t express well, so he couldn’t even speak a complete sentence. not come out.

Not far from them, a man with a bruised nose and a swollen face was crying in pain, demanding that the police must give Ye Fan a severe punishment.Hearing the name of his employer, the lawyer hurried over to negotiate with the two on Ye Fan's behalf.

Ye Fan, who was quite happy to see the lawyer coming, was surprised when he saw Xu Shengyao who walked beside him at some point: "Why are you here?" He kept gesticulating, and said aggrievedly: "You don't think I hit someone, and you came here to deal with me, right?"

Even as smart as Xu Shengyao, he couldn't guess what happened. "I thought you were causing trouble again, but I don't think you would hit someone in front of a child."

"Then you misread me, I really hit him in front of him."

Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel in an awkward tone, the bodyguard became anxious.Obviously the young master did something good, but Mr. Xu misunderstood him, what can we do?The bodyguard leader hurried over and whispered in Xu Shengyao's ear to explain the ins and outs clearly. When it was said that the young master concluded that they were not father and son based on their clothes, Xu Shengyao couldn't help but turn his eyes around the two.

The little boy in Ye Fan's arms finished eating the sausage, and rubbed against Ye Fan's arms again.The child looked at the cast on Ye Fan's left leg and right hand curiously, and asked him what it was.

Ye Fan was afraid of scaring him, so he said, "This is my uncle's drawing board. Uncle is a painter, and he needs to carry a whiteboard with him to draw." touch.

While painting, the child said, "Uncle, my grandpa is also a painter."

The policewoman next to her was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Baby, tell Auntie what your grandpa's name is."

The child thought about it seriously: "My grandfather is called 'Smelly Chess Basket'."

Everyone: "..."

Afterwards, the policewoman asked the names of the child's relatives one by one, but the child's answers were all nicknames, without any reference.They notified the staff of the amusement park to take turns broadcasting revelations about the child's disappearance, but unfortunately no family members came after the broadcast several times.

The "victim" over there became even more rampant. He beat around the bush and scolded the child's family for taking the child to a playground and abandoning him. He was eager to help and wanted to find a home for the child, but was misunderstood as a trafficker.

Ye Fan was upset when he heard that, and scolded him: "Fuck your shit! The police station is 50 meters away from the gate of the amusement park. I didn't hear that they took their children to find a home instead of going to the police station, but walked to the station instead." When he scolded Remember to cover the child's ears so that he doesn't want him to hear himself swearing.

In fact, the police are more inclined to Ye Fan's point of view. They also think that the man who left with the child in his arms has ulterior motives.But the other party insisted that he was only trying to find a family for the child, and it was indeed Ye Fan who made the first move, so the situation was really unfavorable.According to the procedure of handling the case, both Ye Fan who did the crime and the man who took the child away should be taken into custody, and who is innocent can only be determined after further evidence.

Xu Shengyao's face became extremely ugly when he heard that his baby brother was going to squat here for the night.Although the lawyer can release Diao Diao on bail, Xu Shengyao absolutely does not allow Diao Diao to be infamy for nothing.

He looked at the child wearing a famous brand in Diaoyu's arms, and said, "If this child is really from a good family background, then he should have a positioning device and a recording device, which are usually placed on the soles of shoes, belt buckles, brooches or watches. .”

Perhaps because of his strong aura, the policewoman actually followed his orders to search for accessories on the child.Sure enough, the Milaoya watch on the child's wrist has a mystery, not only a blinking positioning device, but also an automatic recording function.The police quickly connected the watch to the computer and called up a recording of the incident, and it was this recording that exposed the lies of the traffickers.

In the recording, the other party first asked the child, "Where is your adult?" The child did not answer, and then he instructed the puppy to perform a series of tricks such as thank you and shaking hands. After attracting the child's attention, he showed his true colors and said, I went to my uncle's house to see other puppies" and took away the child.

Now that the evidence is overwhelming, it is useless for the traffickers to argue.The police took the trafficker away for interrogation, hoping to follow him and find out his upstream and downstream.

The child was still drawing on Ye Fan's plaster with a paintbrush. Ye Fan felt very distressed when he thought about the torture he would suffer if he was trafficked.He kissed his forehead, then lifted it up and said to Xu Shengyao with a smile, "You are quite amazing, and you suddenly thought that he was wearing a device."

Xu Shengyao didn't speak, but stared at him silently.

The two looked at each other for three seconds, and Ye Fan's dull head finally came to his senses. He took off the sky-high priced watch and threw it at Xu Shengyao, shouting angrily, "Xu! Sheng! Yao!!!"

It is true that he came back to ease the relationship between the two brothers, but he was absolutely unwilling to use his freedom as a bargaining chip.

But he didn't have much strength in his left hand, so Xu Shengyao grabbed the watch in his hand with a light grasp.He walked up to Ye Fan with the watch strap on, took his hand without any explanation, and put the expensive custom-made watch on his wrist again.Ye Fan was worried that the child could not swear at him in front of him, so he could only shake his hands and try to break free of the watch again.

Xu Shengyao slapped his palm lightly, and said: "This watch is left to you by your father, how could I do anything in it."

Ye Fan fell silent for a moment.Speaking of this matter, he always felt a little inexplicably guilty. Mr. Xu doted on his little son very much. Before he died, he specially called him to the bedside, and asked the housekeeper to take this watch that he wore most often and loved most from the bedside cabinet. , and put it in Ye Fan's hands.At that time, Ye Fan was the most rebellious. He didn't understand the love of the old president Xu, but felt that it was his compensation for his lack of inheritance rights.

Later, after experiencing many ups and downs, he realized the value of father's love.

In this comparison, Xu Shengyao, who was spurred to become an heir since he was a child, could not stop for a moment, besides inheriting a huge group, he did not receive as much love as himself.

Ye Fan was immersed in a depressed mood, thinking whether to say "I'm sorry I misunderstood you" to his brother, who would have thought that Xu Shengyao's next sentence would break his guilt.

I just heard him say lightly: "Although this watch has no hands or feet, but your other watches have their own positions. It's better to wear those watches when you go out in the future."

Ye Fan: "...you you you you you."

Xu Shengyao took it for granted: "This is all for safety reasons. If anything happens, I can still find you with my watch." Seeing that Ye Fan still looked unacceptable, he raised his hand and showed him his Wrist watch, "not only yours, but my watch, shoes, and belt are all positioned. Our two systems are connected. If you want to know where I am, just ask someone to install a software in your mobile phone and you will be able to see it." my position."

Ye Fan muttered: "... who wants to know where you are all the time." He said it hard, but he gradually accepted Xu Shengyao's explanation in his heart, and planned to install the software when he got home, so as to spy on his brother from time to time. Work hard.

... Strange, who said just now that he would never sacrifice his freedom?

The whispered conversation between the two brothers was not heard by others, and the policewoman on the side was still circling around the little boy, hoping to hear more useful news from him.But the child concentrates on painting, does not say his name, home address, or parents' phone number, and asks three questions.

Ye Fan looked worried: "Why is this kid so stupid."

Xu Shengyao thought about it, but didn't tell him that Diao Diao couldn't speak well until he was three years old.

If it wasn't for the fact that the child was dressed in expensive clothes and had a positioning device on his wrist, the police would have thought that he had been intentionally abandoned.

Ye Fan thought about it, and tentatively said: "The amusement park has broadcast so many times, but no family members have come to find them. Could it be that their family members are not in the amusement park now?"

The female police officer asked: "You said that you suspected that the child was carried from other places? But according to the surveillance, the child walked from the blind spot of surveillance to the big tree outside the ticket office by himself, and then was accosted by the suspect."

"No, that's not what it means." Ye Fan said heartily, "Let's make a bold guess, could it be...for example, the child's grandma brought the child to the amusement park, and the old man fainted and was rescued. The car was taken away, and the child ended up here?"

The female policeman's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly called the park. The security guard of the amusement park said that more than an hour ago, an old lady had a sudden high blood pressure and passed out in the women's toilet outside the park. 120, took the old lady away.They called the hospital again to ask. What a coincidence, the old lady had just woken up and was looking for her grandson as soon as she opened her eyes. She insisted on getting out of bed and going back to the amusement park.

The old lady didn't bring any documents with her, and she couldn't notify her family when she fainted before.Now that the child has been found and the old lady's family has been contacted, everyone is really happy.

While waiting for his family to pick up the child from the police station, Ye Fan has been playing with the child.The child swayed freely on the plaster on his feet, drawing the sun, small flowers, and clouds, which looked quite decent.The dog sat obediently beside the child. Once the child couldn't hold the pen, and the pen dropped to the ground and rolled far away. Before the bodyguards could pick it up, the puppy came back bouncing back with the pen in its mouth.

The child stroked the puppy's head and said, "Uncle, I like this dog so much."

Ye Fan said: "Uncle likes it too, when your family members come, you can ask them if they can keep it."

Xu Shengyao, who was sitting on the side, heard this, and asked amusedly, "Why should he call you 'uncle'? Don't you hate children calling you old?"

"I'm so old, and people still call me 'brother'? Isn't it embarrassing."

"... You have matured a lot when you returned to China this time."

Ye Fan curled his lips: "If I am immature, I don't even know how I died."

Xu Shengyao noticed that what Ye Fan said was a bit strange, and just about to ask carefully, the little boy asked Ye Fan: "Uncle, who is that man?"

Ye Fan glanced at Xu Shengyao, and replied awkwardly: "...This is my brother."

This is the first time Ye Fan has said the word brother since he entered junior high school.Just this one word made Xu Shengyao's recent exhaustion go away. He was in a good mood and wished he could donate ten teaching buildings, five laboratories and three Hope Primary Schools to celebrate.He looked at the top of Ye Fan's head, as if he saw the return of his childhood favorite fishing.

The boy asked again: "You are an uncle, what is the name of the uncle's brother?"

Ye Fan thought for a while: "He is so old, you can just call him uncle."

...Hey, just when I praised him for being good, he kicked his ass, what a stubborn donkey.

Time passed quickly while talking and laughing. Half an hour later, a middle-aged couple hurried to the police station in the amusement park area to pick up their children.

It was Secretary Yu who had a sharp eye and a good memory. He immediately went to Xu Shengyao's side and said in a low voice, "This man is Mr. Gao, a famous calligrapher. During the opening ceremony of the Museum of Contemporary Art that Xu invested in, you and he edited together. Excited." He recalled for a moment, and then said: "His father, Master Gao, is a leading figure in the traditional Chinese painting field today, and every painting is sold at a very high price."

Xu Shengyao originally thought they were the child's parents, but when the child saw them, he threw himself into their arms and called them uncle and aunt.Mr. Gao remembered Xu Shengyao's identity, and greeted him very warmly, with a tone of gratitude.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, for saving my little Mo from being abducted." It turned out that the little boy was named Gao Mo, because Gao's family had been engaged in painting and calligraphy for several generations, and his grandfather hoped that he could inherit his mantle. That's why he was named Mo.

Xu Shengyao declined: "This matter actually has nothing to do with me. It was my younger brother who found out that the children's clothes did not match those of the traffickers, so he asked the bodyguards to stop them."

Mr. Gao hurriedly turned to Ye Fan to thank him. He thought that since he was Xu Shengyao's younger brother, his surname must also be Xu, so he kept saying "Little Mr. Xu", and the atmosphere in the office suddenly became awkward.

Ye Fan didn't want to hear him thanking himself anymore, he didn't think he was such a noble person.In that case, no one would watch tragedy happen and do nothing.He changed the subject and asked, "Why didn't Xiaomo's parents come?"

Mr. Gao replied: "My younger brother and younger siblings went with the scientific research team."

This statement surprised everyone present. Secretary Yu said: "I have always heard that the Gao family is good at writing and ink. I didn't expect there to be two scientists."

Mr. Gao likes to hear people praise his younger brother the most, but he still has to say modestly: "Where, where, my younger brother didn't like dancing and writing. Originally, my father wanted him to practice calligraphy with me, but he chose to practice calligraphy in high school. After studying science, he was admitted to the Department of Geology and studied for a PhD step by step. Ashamed to say, the whole family couldn’t understand the papers he published! But he and my younger siblings met during a scientific examination. He is a geologist, and he specializes in ecology, which is a perfect match. It's a pity that it takes more than half a year to go out for scientific research, so Xiaomo is entrusted to us to take care of him."

He also said that he had already contacted Xiaomo's parents on the way here, and after hearing this, they said that they must thank the Xu family brothers in person.It's just that they have heavy scientific research tasks now, and they really can't come back, so I want to make an appointment to make an online video with them.

Ye Fan asked: "Where did they go for scientific research? Domestic?"

Mr. Gao said: "No, it's a small island in the country of Thousand Islands. I don't remember the name they said. They only planned to stay for five months before returning, but they measured an unusual one and a half months ago. The earth’s crust is fluctuating, and there are also problems with the local ecological cycle. Yesterday he called back and said that he would stay for a while.… Hey, I don’t understand the specifics. I haven’t heard any of the terms he mentioned, but these are not If you are interested in something confidential, Mr. Xu, you can ask him to tell you about it, my little brother loves teaching people the most."

The country of a thousand islands?

Secretary Yu didn't hide the shock on his face. He subconsciously looked at Xu Shengyao beside him, and found that he was also frowning just like himself.

Xu's real estate has been preparing to bid for a super five-star resort hotel recently, but it is on an undeveloped island in the country of thousands of islands!
