Since I am Yu Huanshui

Chapter 352
Qiao Yingzi burst into tears.

Qian Wen smiled all over his face, "Your birthday gift cost me a lot of effort and a lot of money.

This box of exercises and test papers is not cheaper than your 8499.

Quickly wipe away your tears of joy and accept my gift. "

Huang Zhitao rolled his eyes when he heard the words, "Fang Yifan, this gift of yours is really wonderful, and it will be unforgettable in a lifetime."

"A gift is a surprise, and it will be unforgettable for a lifetime." Qian Wen smiled, stepped forward, picked up the top stack of exercises in the big Lego box, and then looked at Qiao Yingzi, who was already twitching with joy, "Yingzi, I'm so excited , be calm."

Looking at the box full of exercises in front of him, Qiao Yingzi wiped away tears, and looked at Qian Wen suddenly, "I like your size, do you want these test papers to be sent to the ground for me!"

The corners of Ji Yangyang's mouth turned up, "Others are less polite and more affectionate, but Fang Yifan's gift, let me see that courtesy is more important than affection.

This gift is really hard for you. "

Lin Lei'er showed a helpless expression. He was stunned last night. This gift is really a surprise, a real surprise.

"What? Is my gift not good?
Is it what you need most now!
Look at your dad's 8499, Taozi's celestial body book, Lei'er's novel, Ji Yangyang's cosmic mystery, these gifts, your mother can simply let you play and read them.

This gift of mine will not be blocked. Why pay it back to you after the college entrance examination? It can be used now. I have thought about this gift and prepared it from your point of view.

Their gifts are weak chickens. "Qian Wen looked at Qiao Yingzi who was looking at him with grateful eyes.

Hearing this, Qiao Yingzi gritted her teeth with tears in her excited eyes, "I really sent it to my mother's heart.

She needs to know that this gift is from you, and she must not return a bouquet of flowers to thank you. "

Qian Wen waved his hand and said modestly, "That's not the case, it's fine to send back any flowers, who made us best friends, we should think about you."

Qiao Yingzi began to sharpen his fists, and rushed towards Qian Wen who was still making trouble.

"Fang Hou'er, my mother must give this flower.

Because today next year will be your death day!
This chrysanthemum, it would be ridiculous not to give it away!"

Qiao Yingzi rushed over with all his teeth and claws. Qian Wen smiled and was prepared for such a big surprise. He didn't act abnormally. I'm sorry that he stayed up all night to find exercises in various provinces and place orders.

"Ah, Fang Hou'er, you and I are inseparable~" Qiao Yingzi stepped in instantly.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Qian Wen hurriedly stretched out his right hand, and directly pressed Qiao Yingzi's little head that was rushing towards him.

"Ah~ah~ let go, let me go! I want to die with you!"

Qian Wen took advantage of his height and arm length to directly reject Qiao Yingzi from him. Qiao Yingzi's short legs and hands kept kicking in his direction.

It's a pity that he was only a little bit short of being able to hammer him.

"Ah~ ah~ Fang Hou'er, you are a devil, a devil!
People just send exercises and papers, and they also send one or two volumes. You give me a hundred catties to start.

I'm only over 80 kilograms, are you going to use the exercises to make me a coffin! "

Qiao Yingzi growled and squeezed hard towards him, trying to beat him to vent his anger.

Qian Wen lowered Qiao Yingzi's little head firmly with one arm, just not letting her approach.

"You said you wanted to be surprised. I came here according to your request. Aren't you happy, surprised, and tearful now?"

Qiao Yingzi raised his legs high and attacked him, Qian Wen's toes touched his face, and he was a few centimeters taller in an instant. Qiao Yingzi's feet of three or six yards swung past him.

"Of course I was pleasantly surprised, of course I was happy, how could I not burst into tears, I thank you, thank you for being so considerate and thinking about me!
Fuck you~" Qiao Yingzi gritted his teeth and kicked his feet again, one to fuck you, hooked the slipper with his little foot, and the slipper flew towards Qian Wen's face.

"If you don't talk about martial ethics, why are you still attacking with hidden weapons?" Qian Wen hurriedly turned his head to avoid it.

At this time, Qian Wen's arm was also bent, and Qiao Yingzi took the opportunity to get closer and shouted, "Accept my justice!"

After some chasing and beating, Qiao Yingzi was tired, leaning on the sofa and laughing at Huang Zhitao who they were chasing and beating.

Qian Wen smiled and took out two bottles of mineral water from the refrigerator, and threw a bottle to Qiao Yingzi, "Whoever wants to drink can take it himself, and I won't serve tea and water."

"Fang Yifan, this is too much, it will drive Yingzi crazy." Huang Zhitao wiped the sweat from Yingzi's forehead, looked at the exercises in the big Lego box, and said to the exam paper.

"Then Taozi, you can help Yingzi." Qian Wen said while drinking water.

Huang Zhitao was taken aback, "I help? How can I help?"

Qian Wen winked at Qiao Yingzi who was out of breath, raised her eyebrows, and asked her to look at Huang Zhitao and Ji Yangyang who were gloating.

At this time, Qiao Yingzi was so blessed that he instantly understood what Qian Wen meant.

How can such a big surprise be enjoyed alone?

Of course I have to share it with my friends.

Qiao Yingzi looked at Huang Zhitao, Ji Yangyang, Lin Lei'er, and finally aimed at Qian Wen with malicious intent, his eyes full of malice.

"I've decided." Qiao Yingzi raised his hand and said.

Everyone looked at her.

"I like Fang Hou'er's surprise very much." Qiao Yingzi gritted his teeth when he said this, "But I don't think I can enjoy it to myself, it's too selfish."

Huang Zhitao suddenly felt full of malice.

Ji Yangyang looked around, it was a bit cold and there was no wind.

Lin Lei'er looked at the hundreds of catties of exercises and scratched her head, wondering when this should be written, and mourned for Yingzi.

"So~" Qiao Yingzi's loud voice attracted everyone's attention.

"As my best and best friends, let's share this surprise equally~" Qiao Yingzi opened his arms and shouted.

"Huh?" Huang Zhitao was taken aback.

"Cough cough cough~" Hearing this, Ji Yangyang, who was drinking water, choked on water.

"Oh uh~" Lin Lei'er hiccupped in shock.

Qian Wen smiled, knowing that he had no good intentions.

Everyone hastily returned to their senses.

"No, Yingzi, this is Fang Yifan's birthday present to you. How can we ask for it? Fang Yifan will be sad!" Huang Zhitao looked at the thick stack of exercises and hurriedly refused.

Ji Yangyang stopped playing deep, and swallowed his saliva, "I don't need to be rescued, I'm the last one, and writing is for nothing, let Fang Yifan, he has a lot of room for improvement."

Qian Wen glanced at him, hey, you have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and you turned traitor.

"I... I have enough exercises." Lin Lei'er waved her hands again and again in fright, and took several steps back.

Seeing that everyone didn't accept his kindness, Qiao Yingzi hurried to the Lego box and hugged the exercises inside, "No, no, no, I still have to share it. If you have good things, think about good friends."

"Come here, Taozi." Qiao Yingzi picked up a stack of exercise questions, weighing at least a dozen kilograms, and put it in Huang Zhitao's arms, "You're welcome, girlfriend, good things always think about you."

"No..." Huang Zhitao felt dizzy looking at the heavy exercises in her arms. She had written a lot more than this, but she was dizzy with so many volumes at once.

"Not enough? Taozi is a top student, so I'm giving you some points. Which one of us is with the other, don't be polite." Qiao Yingzi said and brought Huang Zhitao more than a dozen catties of exercises, stuffing them into his arms.

"Oh uh~" Huang Zhitao hiccupped, the heavy feeling in her arms made her afraid to speak.

"Come, come, Ji Yangyang, yours." Qiao Yingzi let Huang Zhitao go, and hugged another stack of exercises, which he wanted to pass to Ji Yangyang who was stupefied.

"No..." Ji Yangyang stammered and waved his hands.

Qiao Yingziqiang said first, "I know, I know, it is definitely not enough for you to realize your shame and be brave." As he spoke, he stuffed a thick stack of exercises into Ji Yangyang's arms, and then quickly went back and forth before Ji Yangyang could react. Between the big Lego box and Ji Yangyang, soon there was a second stack in Ji Yangyang's arms.

After sharing with Ji Yangyang, Qiao Yingzi grinned and aimed at Lin Lei'er, who had swaying eyes.

"Dear Lei'er, look at Tao Zi, Yang Yang has shared my joy, you are..." Qiao Yingzi walked towards Lin Lei'er with a strange smile.

Lin Lei'er hiccupped in fright, swallowed, "I... I... Yingzi, I will take it myself, I will take it myself..." He was really afraid that Yingzi would stuff him with dozens of catties of exercises.

Forty percent of the last box of exercises is left.

"Fang Houer~" Qiao Yingzi's voice was soft, and she suddenly looked at Qian Wen with incomparable tenderness, her long eyelashes flickering, and her voice was coquettish.

Maliciousness rushed towards his face, but Qian Wen smiled, stretched out his index finger, and smacked Qiao Yingzi's forehead in a charming way.

"Wait for me~"

Qiao Yingzi's big eyes flickered for a moment.

Then Qian Wen turned around and entered the bedroom in the eyes of everyone who was embracing heavy surprises.

"You can't run away." Huang Zhitao said awkwardly.

"Hmph, he can't run away!" Ji Yangyang looked at the thick exercise paper in his arms, the culprit could not escape!
"Alas~" Lin Lei'er sighed heavily, the cousin entered the bedroom, they were in trouble.

Qiao Yingzi pouted, "My surprise must be shared with Fang Houer!"

After a while, Qian Wen came out.

"I'll go~" Qiao Yingzi's eyes were tearing.

"Mom, I want to go home~" Huang Zhitao moaned.

"I thought you were a ruthless person." Ji Yangyang clenched his fists hard, "Who knows, Fang Yifan, you are a werewolf."

The door of Qian Wen's bedroom.

Qian Wen held in his arms almost half of the exercises and papers he gave Qiao Yingzi's birthday present, and smiled at everyone.

"Get lost~ you leave us!" Qiao Yingzi, Huang Zhitao, and Ji Yangyang said violently.

Lin Lei'er sighed heavily. My cousin is the wolf among the werewolves. He left one-third of the exercises and papers last night.

Qian Wen looked at the stunned and crying expressions of everyone, "Hahaha~" smiled happily.

With Fang Yifan's memory as a basis, his basic knowledge is really not bad, what is lacking is experience, he has to use countless exercises and test papers to recharge himself.

"Come on, everyone, please don't be polite, it's better to have fun alone than to have fun together~" Qian Wen smiled and walked towards the crowd with a half box of exercises and papers in his arms.

Qiao Yingzi, Huang Zhitao, Ji Yangyang, with horrified eyes, "..."

It's not that they haven't seen the exercises and papers, but there are so many, and they are formally placed in front of them, and they have to write them by themselves, and they feel dizzy unconsciously.

An hour later, after sharing the exercises, everyone was happy, and the joy was so dull.

"Okay, I found a box for each of you to pack your own exercises.

Yingzi, just hold this Lego box. "Qian Wen clapped his hands in satisfaction.

Qiao Yingzi glanced at Qian Wen, she was really overjoyed today.

Then everyone ate some snacks to calm down, and then sighed and studied.

I came here in the morning, just to get together to study. Ji Yangyang wanted to drive a go-kart, but he just agreed, so he followed suit.

While Qian Wen was studying hard, his mobile phone rang.

Qian Wen saw that it was Fangyuan calling.

Go to the balcony and answer the phone.

"Fanfan, you're in a relationship, and you're still a girl on the same floor as us." As soon as the phone was connected, before Qian Wen could speak, Fang Yuan rushed to talk.

Qian Wen was taken aback.

He's in love? Why doesn't he know.

"You, who did you listen to?" Qian Wen asked in confusion.

"Your mother told me in the morning that you were in a relationship with a girl named Wang Yidi, a classmate, and that you went for a run together in the morning," Fang Yuan said.

Qian Wen rolled his eyes when he heard the news, he knew what was going on with the news, it must be Tong Wenjie's old mother's heart attack.

"Don't listen to my mother's nonsense, I don't even have love now, where is the love?" Qian Wen said speechlessly.

"Hehe, Dad is just asking.

By the way, I'm not here, nothing happened at home. "Fang Yuan said with a smile.

"You only disappeared for one day, what can happen at home.

By the way, I told you last night, how did I think about it. " Qian Wen asked.

"Thinking about it all night, I quite agree with what you said will happen after the company's merger and acquisition.

I intend to show a lot of performance in the process of contacting Juhua Group. I don't want to go further, as long as there are no accidents in my work.

Of course, if Zhenyi trembled and Cheng Fang became the director, I would be happy to accept it. "Fang Yuan told his son that he heard a lot, but he still didn't feel that he would have a mid-life crisis. He is a veteran of the company. Even if he doesn't get promoted and raises his salary, he won't be laid off.

However, when discussing mergers and acquisitions with Juhua Group, it is always right to be outstanding.

"Okay, then I'll study." Qian Wen saw Fang Yuan and listened.

Even if you do get laid off, you should be prepared and feel better.

"You study, I have to go on a business trip for a week anyway, you take care of your mother and Lei'er." Fang Yuan was about to hang up the phone after speaking, but he paused, "Fanfan, do you know how to protect girls, just... just ...Which contraception..."

Fangyuan on the other end of the phone hesitated.

Qian Wen rubbed the center of his brows, where is all this.

"Old Fang, the information is very advanced now, not 20 years ago, and there are physiology classes in junior high schools.

Needless to say, condoms, and I'm not in a relationship! Thank you, goodbye!" Qian Wen hung up the phone directly.

Unexpectedly, the enlightened old Fang could not avoid the custom.

Qian Wen continued to discuss studies with Qiao Yingzi and the others. They ate frozen fast food at Qian Wen's house at noon. Tired of studying in the afternoon, they made an appointment for a movie together and went back to their respective homes.

At night, Tong Wenjie came back.

"Are you hungry? I bought vegetables and will cook right away." Tong Wenjie, who entered the door, hurriedly changed her shoes and said, leading the supermarket bag.

"Auntie, we've already eaten, you can rest and eat." Lin Lei'er, who was watching TV, hurriedly got up and greeted.

"The dishes are all ready-made. They are placed in the kitchen. Once they are hot, they will be ready. You should sit down and rest quickly. We can't starve ourselves." Qian Wen who was on the sofa turned his head and said.

"Did you order takeaway? But I've been really busy recently, and I'm much more relieved that you can take care of yourself." Tong Wenjie said, slowing down her hasty pace.

"It's not takeaway, it's my cousin's cooking." Lin Lei'er said.

"Fanfan cooks by himself?" Tong Wenjie was startled, and hurried into the kitchen, fearing that there would be a mess.

But when she rushed into the kitchen, she didn't see the mess, but there were three plates of home-cooked food on the kitchen cabinet.

Tong Wenjie looked at the three normal home-cooked dishes and came out in doubt.

"Fanfan, you did this." Tong Wenjie said in disbelief.

It is no problem to eat your own skin monkeys.Cooking? It's hard for him to do the dishes.

Qian Wen shrugged, he didn't explain anything.

It's just a few dishes. Although they are not as complete as Lao Fang's, they are still fine to eat.

"My cousin made it. We ate it at home at night." Lin Lei'er testified.

"Mom went back to the bedroom to change clothes, and Lei'er warmed up the meal." Qian Wen got up and said.

"Oh." Lin Lei'er walked into the kitchen.

And Tong Wenjie, who was a little dazed, was pushed into the bedroom by Qian Wen.

Qian Wen then tied his apron and walked into the kitchen. Tong Wenjie hadn't come back just now, and he hadn't made Youdao soup.

While Qian Wen was making tomato and chicken soup, Tong Wenjie changed her clothes and went into the kitchen.

"It's really Fanfan's cooking." Tong Wenjie rubbed her eyes when she saw Qian Wen making the soup deftly.

Qian Wen smiled when he saw it, "Seeing that my dad has done a lot, he has learned it.

Hurry up and eat at the table, the soup will be ready in a while. "

"Oh." Tong Wenjie smiled, thinking that it would be nice to have a hot meal at home, so she patted Qian Wen's back lightly and went out without thinking too much.

Several people chatted casually in the living room, chatting about study, chatting about Leier, chatting about Qian Wen, and finally Tong Wenjie talked about Wang Yidi in a roundabout way.

Qian Wen had a headache, so he threw Lei'er to Tong Wenjie, and went back to the bedroom without explaining.

Tong Wenjie is different from Fangyuan, Fangyuan can talk about it, but Tong Wenjie, if you dare to start, she can chat with you until the early hours of the morning, and you have to give her a guarantee.

He doesn't have time to spare, so if you misunderstand, just misunderstand. Anyway, it's your imagination, and it has nothing to do with me.

In the early morning of the next day, Tong Wenjie went out. Her company was recently engaged in a round of financing. As the deputy director of the finance department, she rarely had a day off.

A few minutes after Tong Wenjie went out, Qian Wen quickly got up, sent Lei'er to Yingzi's house, and went to Tong Wenjie's company by himself.

When there was a merger and acquisition in Fangyuan Company, Qian Wen guessed that Tong Wenjie might soon be taken over by his assistant.

Originally, I planned to have a good chat with Tong Wenjie, so that she would have a better understanding and not be confused by the assistant Xiao Jin.

But after thinking about it, he finally gave up. He was the only one, and he was a monkey in Tong Wenjie's eyes. How could Tong Wenjie listen to what he said.

With such a waste of saliva, he solved the matter.

What happened to Tong Wenjie was different from what happened to Fangyuan.

Fang Yuan was eliminated, and Qian Wen wanted to help, but he couldn't use his strength, it was up to Fang Yuan himself.

But Tong Wenjie is different. Tong Wenjie's work problems are caused by being deceived, and Qian Wen kills the people who deceived Tong Wenjie.

There are three people who are unfavorable to Tong Wenjie, one is Jenny who is not against her.[-]. It is Xiao Jin, the assistant who plots evil.[-]. Roger was squeezed into the play to take over Raymond, the new leader of the finance department.

All three of them, Qian Wen, planned to snap them off.

Hmph, those who prevent Fang's family from being happy will be killed without mercy!
Soon, Qian Wen took a taxi to the company where Tong Wenjie worked.

Looking at the entrance of the building, there is building security at the elevator entrance on the first floor of the building, and he has to punch in to enter. It is difficult for him to enter unless he registers with his real name.

But he had plans.

Qian Wen was playing with a business card in his hand.

This is the landline number of the front desk of Tong Wenjie's company.

Nearby, I found a small shop with a landline and dialed the front desk of Tong Wenjie's company.

Beep beep, after a few beeps.

"Hello, Huaju Co., Ltd., how can I help you." The front desk asked politely.

"Hi, I have an appointment with Mr. Raymond. Is he in the office?" Qian Wen made up a random thread.

"Oh, what's your name, please?"

"My surname is Zhang. Just ask Raymond." Qian Wen said indifferently.

"Okay, please wait a moment, I will ask Manager Lei for instructions."

"Okay." Qian Wen smiled.

There are results, and the front desk can wait for a reply.

Qian Wen's call is to confirm whether Raymond works in Huaju Company.

In the play, when Tong Wenjie's leader, Roger, was not squeezed out, Raymond did not appear, and Tong Wenjie didn't know Raymond either.

Although I know that Raymond is the son-in-law of Huaju Company and also works in it, I can't be sure about it.

Now you can start the next step.

"Hello, sir, I've confirmed here that Manager Lei doesn't have your appointment today.

May I ask where your company is, maybe we have made a mistake here, I am confirming it for you. "The front desk asked very politely.

"Oh, that may be my memory is wrong, can you give me the contact information of Raymond, or the contact information of his assistant?

I'll just get in touch. "Qian Wen said softly.

"Eh?" The front desk on the other end of the phone was taken aback, feeling like a liar, but still politely said, "Sorry, we don't have the contact information of Manager Lei at the front desk, but we can provide the contact information for his assistant, you can see what?"

"Thank you, assistants are also fine." Qian Wen smiled, and this would be rewarding.

Then the front desk provided the contact information of Raymond's assistant.

But it's not a phone number, it's a landline number.

It appears to be the company's landline.

Qian Wen got through the landline and hung up after confirming that it was Raymond's assistant.

Once the first step is confirmed, you can start the second step.

Qian Wen took a taxi to the Imperial Capital Film Studio, where there are many extras.

Two hours later, Qian Wen took two men and four women, six extra performers, and rented a van to the downstairs of Huaju's company building again.

The van was also rented with the ID card of the group performers.

Moreover, Qian Wen also told them that today, he was looking for them to beat up the scumbag, Xiaosan, and make trouble for him.

Three thousand per person, one play.

After the group performers knew what they were going to do, they would make trouble if they didn't hit anyone. Qian Wen still picked old fritters, so he agreed right away, which was too easy for them.

After explaining everything, Qian Wen called Raymond's assistant on the mobile phone of the extras.

In a few seconds, the phone was connected.

"Hi, I'm Tina, Assistant to Manager Lei, what can I do for you." Raymond's assistant Tina asked.

"I'm Sun Jinjin's cousin. You tell Raymond, see you downstairs in the building in 5 minutes. If you don't see anyone in 5 minutes, let him poke him up there." Qian Wen hung up the phone after speaking.

Qian Wen believed that after hearing the news, Raymond would definitely come to see him as quickly as possible.

After all, Raymond eats soft food, and he also relies on his father-in-law in Huaju Company, that is, Huaju's president.

Although I don't know how Xiaojin and Raymond got together, it doesn't matter. As long as Xiaojin and Raymond go to bed, it will be difficult for Xiaojin to stay in Huaju Company, and Tong Wenjie will be fine.

As for Raymond? Relying on his wife, he is the old father-in-law, what will happen if you say this is exposed? Moreover, he is a subordinate of his own company with unspoken rules, causing a commotion in the company building.

After making the phone call, Qian Wen looked at the six extras in the van.

"People will come down immediately, you can come according to the arrangement, just stop Raymond, don't let him go, and then make a fuss.

You are two groups, one is for Xiao Jin and the other is for Jenny.

They're all here for the scumbags. "Qian Wen looked at the group of speakers and said.

"Understood, boss.

We are familiar with this matter, we have done it more than a dozen times just with scumbags.

They're all just like you, they don't want to show up, and they can't swallow this breath. Don't worry, the money won't let you spend in vain. It will be done properly, and it has nothing to do with you.

In fact, in this kind of thing, as long as you don't beat someone, but just swear, the person concerned dare not call the police. "One of the leading female cosplayers assured by patting her chest.

Qian Wen smiled, these group performances were introduced by a group leader at his expense, so they can be regarded as specialized in skills.

As for why there is Jenny in the third party, Qian Wen feels that in the play Raymond even slapped Xiaojin, and the child's mother Tong Wenjie planned to do it, so how could Jenny, who is not too long, slip through the net.

And judging from the situation in the play, Jenny should have followed Raymond, but Jenny is a non-marriage advocate. For work, one-night stands are completely fine, so she didn't react as much as Xiaojin.

As for Xiaojin and Jenny who are also victims, I'm sorry, Qian Wen has never been a good person.

And at this time of day, is Jenny getting involved with Raymond?
It's none of his business. In the play, Tong Wenjie was demoted and Raymond sexually harassed her. Jenny must be there. Xiao Jin, who came to apologize to Tong Wenjie at the end of the play with a big belly, said that after listening to Jenny's bewitching, it was for their Fang family. , Jenny will not be spared.

In 5 minutes, Qian Wen, who had been staring closely, saw Raymond running down in a hurry and looking around at a glance.

"In that building, the one looking around is Raymond, Sister Lin, you go first, don't let anyone run away.

Miss Zhao, wait a minute. "Qian Wen ordered.

"Okay." Sister Lin, the lead performer, nodded without any timidity, and walked over with a man and a woman.

Qian Wen watched from a distance.

"Raymond~" Sister Lin walked into the building and shouted for confirmation.

Raymond, who was looking around in a hurry, saw someone calling him, so he turned his head and looked over.

"That's right, it's him." Sister Lin waved her hand and led others forward.

One of the female extras stepped forward, passed the lead Sister Lin, and hugged Raymond's thigh.

Raymond was taken aback.

"You kill a thousand knives and harm my sister, how can my sister Sun Jinjin live~" Sister Lin's loud voice spread throughout the entire first floor of the building.

The eyes of everyone on the first floor of the building were attracted.

"My sister Sun Jinjin is pregnant with your child~"

"You scumbag, I'll kill you~"

In an instant, the family suffering drama started, and the actors led by Sister Lin were in place, performing dedicatedly.
