Chapter 145 Having a Girlfriend
The National Day holiday came as scheduled, and Jiang Yu had just returned to his hometown a few days ago, so Jiang Yu didn't rush back when there were many people during the Golden Week.

On the holiday schedule, each person was on duty for two days, and Jing Hong wanted to go out to play, so Jiang Yu offered to take one day's duty for her.

The elder sister was so moved that she insisted on hugging her and kissing her.

On October [-]st, Jiang Yu and Ding Xuan were on duty. She arrived at the office during normal working hours, but saw Ye Zhanzhou who hadn't shown up for a few days.

"Deputy Captain Ye, why are you here?" Putting down her backpack, she asked.

Ye Zhanzhou just took a sip of water and said, "Xiao Ding has something to do, I'll take care of him for a day."

"Complaint dealt with?"

"Well, it's all over."

Jiang Yuchang let out a long breath: "The inspector came to me twice more, asking me over and over again, and I was almost bored to death."

"See if you're nervous, just talk."

"This is my first contact with inspectors, okay? It's not like you often deal with them."

Ye Zhanzhou smiled wryly: "Don't listen to the old nonsense, I am rarely complained about now."

Jiang Yu shrugged noncommittally, and turned on the computer: "Deputy Captain Ye, the dissertation is about to start. I want to cite actual cases, can I?"

"Let me tell you what you think first, and see if I can find it for you directly." Ye Zhanzhou pulled up a chair and sat down.

With his help, the efficiency is much higher.At the end of the day, Jiang Yu had already decided on the basic direction of the thesis.

When he was about to get off work, Ye Zhanzhou's cell phone rang.

He glanced at it, walked to the window and pressed the answer button.

"Hey...I can get home tomorrow night...Why?...Didn't I tell you, I have a girlfriend, don't worry about it..."

Jiang Yu had no intention of eavesdropping on other people's phone calls, and continued to type on the computer, but the word "girlfriend" got into her ears, causing her heart to sink inexplicably, and her hands on the keyboard also stopped.

She didn't hear what he said later, but just stared at the computer screen in a daze.

Ye Zhanzhou hung up the phone and saw her like this when he turned around.Walked over a few steps, bent down to look at the content on the computer: "What's the problem?"

Jiang Yu came back to his senses and moved to the side: "No...it's nothing."

Seeing that her complexion was not very good, Ye Zhanzhou sat down again: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Jiang Yu copied the file into the USB drive.

Raising his hand to look at his watch, Ye Zhanzhou asked, "What would you like to eat tonight?"

Jiang Yu felt that he shouldn't get too close to him, so he said, "I want to go home early."

Sensing the obvious change in her mood, Ye Zhanzhou frowned slightly: "Uncomfortable?"

The little girl was fine just now, why did she suddenly become like this?

"No, I'm just a little tired." Jiang Yu pulled the corners of his lips and forced a smile.

As soon as the off-duty time came, she said "Goodbye, Deputy Team Ye", picked up her bag and left.

Looking at the back of the person who left quickly, Ye Zhanzhou put his tongue on the back of his teeth, and frowned so much that he could almost pinch a fly to death.

He popped out a cigarette and lit it until the end of the cigarette. Vice Captain Ye, who has always been quick-thinking, didn't think of a reason.

……

In Pingcheng under the setting sun, a jeep with a military license plate drove into the compound of the military region, turned around and turned, and finally stopped in front of an independent courtyard.

Three or four children of different sizes were playing in the yard, and one of them, a chubby four or five-year-old, ran into the house when he saw the person getting out of the car.

As soon as he entered the room, he was grabbed by an elderly woman: "Tongtong, slow down, don't fall!"

"Little...uncle..."

"Your uncle is back?" The woman looked out with surprise on her face.

Ye Zhanzhou called his mother, put his backpack on the shoe cabinet at the door, bent over and squeezed the little fat man: "What are you running for?"

"No..." The little fat man pursed his lips, wanting to cry but not daring to cry.

"Stop teasing him, hurry up and enter the house." Ye Mu Bai Jingqiu greeted the ten-year-old girl behind, "Ye Zi, take my brother to wash his hands, he is ready to eat."

Bypassing the entrance, Ye Zhanzhou entered the living room, and said hello to his grandfather, uncle, aunt, second uncle, second aunt, father and cousin.

Mr. Ye is eighty-five and has three sons.The eldest family is a daughter, and the second family gave birth to a pair of twin daughters.When the third son Ye Bin arrived, he finally gave birth to a grandson.

It's a pity that this grandson is not only not around, but he may not come back once a year.

The meal was ready long ago, this person came back, and Bai Jingqiu greeted everyone to sit down.

The old man beckoned and asked his grandson to sit beside him.

After two glasses of wine, he asked, "Zhanzhou, what have you been up to lately?"

"The case has just been closed." Ye Zhanzhou put down his chopsticks, took out a cigarette, and lit one by himself.

The second sister Ye Xin said: "You can't smoke less."

Ye Zhanzhou bared his white teeth and smiled: "I don't have the nerve to smoke in the car, I'm holding back. Eh? Why didn't the third sister come?"

"I'm raising a baby at home." Ye Xin replied.

Ye Zhanzhou raised his eyebrows: "Yo, this really responds to the call of the country!"

The third sister, Ye Li, has already given birth to a son and a daughter, and now this is her third child.

Bai Jingqiu said angrily: "Yes, Xiaoran is two years older than you, and now she has three children. Look at you again, the mother of the child has not yet been found. "

"Didn't you say you have a girlfriend?" Second Aunt asked.

"You listen to him, he speaks accurately?" Ye Bin glared at his son.

Ye Zhanzhou suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and there seemed to be a clue to the question that he hadn't figured out since yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

He got up, took out his mobile phone and said, "Eat first, I'll make a call."

"Can't you call after eating?" Before Ye Bin finished speaking, he had already flashed out of the restaurant.

If it weren't for the presence of so many people in the family, he really wanted to beat that kid up.

"Okay, just pick up the phone after half-course meal and leave. You have done a lot of things like this." Bai Jingqiu persuaded.

Ye Zhanzhou held his mobile phone and walked around the yard three times, but he still couldn't figure out how to speak.

The finger slid a few times in the dialogue with the little girl.

It was sent by him before boarding the plane: I am going home and will be back in three days.

The little girl didn't reply.

He posted again: Just after getting off the plane, Pingcheng is very hot.

This time I replied, with only one word: yes
There is not even a punctuation mark, obviously to end the topic.

After thinking about it, he decided to talk about it later.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was still lively, with men pushing glasses and changing glasses, and women chatting about family matters.

The topic circled around, and it circled back to Ye Zhanzhou's personal issues.

Bai Jingqiu sighed and sighed: "In the past, I was wondering what kind of girl he would find suitable. Now, as long as he can bring someone back, it doesn't matter what kind of girl he is."

"Third Aunt, don't say that." Ye Xin said while wiping the corners of Tongtong's mouth, "If he brings you a man back, you will cry."

Before Bai Jingqiu could reply, Ye Bin stared and said, "If that's the case, I'll break his leg!"

"Dad, I'm afraid you don't have that chance." Ye Zhanzhou grinned, "I'm sure you'll be satisfied when you look at people."
