Liu Hui was wearing ordinary short-sleeved clothes. The light at night was a little dim, but she could still clearly see that her clothes had been washed and turned slightly white.

Xie Hui stood up hastily, and wanted to speak to Liu Hui when she passed by her, but his legs were slightly numb because he kept one movement for too long.

"Hey boy, what's wrong with you? Should I take you to the hospital?"

When Liu Hui passed by, she saw that the man was about to fall, and hurriedly reached out to support his arm, with a bit of worry in her eyes.

"It's okay, you don't need to go to the hospital."

After Xie Hui felt that his legs were no longer numb, he turned to look at Liu Hui who was still standing beside him. The street lights were yellowish, but the look in Liu Hui's eyes was very clear.

"Mom, I'm thanking you, don't you know me?"

Liu Hui was obviously stunned when she heard these words, she stared blankly at Xie Hui with wide-eyed eyes, and after a while, she stepped forward and clenched Xie Hui's arm tightly.

"Thank you?"

"Yes, Mom."

After hearing the affirmative answer from his mouth, Liu Hui's eyes were already a little red, and she smiled excitedly.

"How did you come here? How do you know I'm here?"

When I met this client in the system space, I never heard her mention the matter of her son, probably because she felt that the son was with his father and he didn't need to worry about it.

And Xie Zhaodi, who lived with her grandmother since she was a child, is introverted and cowardly and has no friends. Even if the client leaves, he can't rest assured.

Xie Hui, looking at her excited appearance now, can guess that she also cares about this child, maybe it's just not as good as Xie Zhaodi.

"Mom, let's go back and talk slowly. I only ate a little at night, and I'm starving to death."

Xie Hui, who has experienced so many mission worlds, knows very well how to make people relax their vigilance.

For those like Liu Hui who haven't seen their sons for so many years, Xie Hui showed that the more he needed his mother, the more quickly he could shorten the distance between them.

"Ok, go back, I'll make it for you."

Liu Hui reached out to pick up Xie Hui's bag, smiled and walked home with him.

After opening the door with the key, you could smell the aroma of food. A woman in a loose T-shirt came over, took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet, and placed them in front of Liu Hui.

"Here, I don't have any shoes for you. I'll buy them tomorrow."

"Then can I just step on the floor?"

It was only at this time that Xie Zhaodi noticed that there was an exceptionally tall man standing behind her mother, dressed in a suit, his temperament was incompatible with their dilapidated rental house.

"Of course, come in quickly. We didn't say hello to Zhaodi at night, hey, you guys eat first, I'll go to the kitchen to order a bowl of noodles."

Liu Hui put down the things in her hands, picked up the apron hanging on the wall, put it on over her clothes, and walked to the kitchen.

Xie Hui sat down at the dining table, and Xie Zhaodi was sitting opposite him, holding chopsticks and eating with her head down. The back is slightly hunched, without the slightest sense of presence.

If you just look at it, you can't see any problems at all. Xie Zhaodi is like an introverted ordinary person, perhaps with a slight social fear.

Liu Hui went to the kitchen and quickly cooked a bowl of noodles, brought them to the table and saw that Xie Hui hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, the smile on his lips faded a bit.

"Is it not to your liking? Why don't you eat it?"

"Mom, I'm waiting for you to be with me."

Xie Hui's words successfully made the pimple in Liu Hui's heart disappear. After she sat down, she enthusiastically brought food for Xie Hui.

At the dining table, their family doesn't pay attention to eating or sleeping. When Liu Hui asked, Xie Hui answered him truthfully about his life over the years, and by the way, told Liu Hui everything he did before he left that city.

After listening, Liu Hui frowned worriedly.

"Then will they come to trouble you?"

"Mom, don't worry about what I do."

Xie Zhaodi listened to their chat, just bowed her head and ate her meal. Through the content of their chat, she remembered that she still has an older brother.

Many memories about this brother are not good, but seeing his mother happy, he can only remain silent.

"Mom, I came here in a hurry, and I'm going to live in a hotel later, but I'm not familiar with this area, can you help me buy a few changes of clothes?"

After eating, Xie Hui stood up and helped clean up the table together, as if he mentioned it casually.

"Okay, Zhaodi, go and wash the dishes."

"okay."

After Liu Hui went out, Xie Zhaodi subconsciously wanted to take the bowl from Xie Hui, but saw that Xie Hui had already brought the bowl to the kitchen, turning on the faucet seemed to be waiting for hot water.

"There is no hot water here, so don't waste water, it's very expensive."

Xie Zhaodi hurried over and turned off the tap. Her voice sounded a little hoarse, but not unpleasant.

"How have you been all these years?"

When Xie Hui heard her words, he subconsciously turned off the tap. Xie Zhaodi came over with a kettle, took a pot of water, put it on the base, and pressed the button to boil water.

"I'm okay."

"Is it really okay?"

Xie Zhaodi felt a little irritable when she heard the carelessness in Xie Hui's tone, she frowned and replied:

"Why do you care so much?"

The elder brother in Xie Zhaodi's memory didn't protect his younger sister like other elder brothers did, instead he kept bullying himself. When I was young, I tore up my homework, causing myself to be scolded by my teacher and grandma.

Those things seemed to have passed for a long time, but they still remained very clearly in Xie Zhaodi's mind.

Without Liu Hui, Xie Zhaodi seemed to be in a bad temper, frowning and retorting, which reminded Xie of that kind of fierce little hedgehog, who would **** his hands with blood with the thorns just by touching it lightly.

Thinking of the things the original owner did when he was a child, he felt that Xie Zhaodi treated him with such an attitude is also expected.

"Do you know what I came back for this time?"

Xie Hui didn't call her by her name, he almost subconsciously didn't like this kind of name.

Like the former "Xie Simei" and the current "Xie Zhaodi", they should have a complete life of their own, instead of using their whole life to become a tool for others to place their expectations on.

"How do I know? Get out of the way, I have to do the dishes."

"I'll wash it, you can clean it. I have something that I want to talk to you about."

Xie Hui took off his suit jacket, put it on the outside hanger, and rolled up the sleeves.

For the sake of not seeing each other for so many years, Xie Zhaodi did not refuse.

"I came back this time because of my mother. I heard from others that I saw my mother in the hospital. She went to check her body. The condition is not very good."

Xie Hui's words successfully made Xie Zhaodi so startled that she almost didn't hold the bowl in her hand.

"Who did you hear? Is it true?"

Xie Zhaodi asked in a hurry, and after she finished asking, seeing that Xie Hui didn't answer her, she anxiously pushed his shoulder.

"You talk, who are you listening to?!"

Xie Hui washed the bowl in his hand and handed it to her. Seeing that her face was starting to flush slightly in a hurry, he replied softly:

"Of course I have my way to know. If you want to verify the truth, shall we take Mom to the hospital tomorrow?"

After this matter was spoken out, it successfully made the two brothers and sisters who hadn't seen each other for so many years feel no strangers at all. This sudden news made Xie Zhaodi full of worry. When clearing the bowls, she was a little anxious and didn't put a bowl down.

Xie Hui quickly caught the bowl that almost fell, seeing Xie Zhaodi's distraught look, he said:

"Go and rest, I'll come."

"Excuse me, thank you."

Xie Zhaodi is really not in the mood to do this right now, she went back to the living room and sat down on the stool, picked up her phone and wanted to ask for leave.

Her college grades were okay, but she didn't find a suitable good job after graduation. This job was just barely passable. She has never asked for leave before, even if it is a holiday, she is willing to stay and work overtime.

It was the first time I asked for leave this evening, and within a short while I received the news that the leader refused, and even scolded her a few times, telling her not to do it if she didn't want to do it.

In the unit, she was often embarrassed by the leaders, and Xie Zhaodi didn't think anything was wrong at that time. But now, when he saw the few words the leader said about himself, he suddenly felt unbearable, grievances flooded his mind, and his nose was even inexplicably sour for a while.

Even Xie Zhaodi herself didn't know whether she felt uncomfortable after being rejected by the leader because she asked for leave, or she wanted to use this matter to vent her emotions after learning the news.

After Xie Hui washed the dishes, he wiped off the water stains on his hands. When he turned to go to the living room, he happened to see Xie Zhaodi who was wiping her tears with her hands. When she walked over, her phone was still on the screen.

"Show me, will you?"

"Um."

Xie Zhaodi passed the phone over in a daze, with an indifferent attitude, even a little tired.

Xie Hui took it over and looked at it, and sent a line to help Xie Zhaodi quit the job.

From his point of view, Xie Zhaodi's current situation is not suitable for continuing to work. The environment has too much influence on a person, and the client's memory of Xie Zhaodi's working environment is not good.

Colleagues who are full of obscenities and don't know how to make jokes. Often using Xie Zhaodi's name to mock her was just a joke in their eyes, but to Xie Zhaodi, it was more like a knife stuck in her chest.

The person holding the knife didn't realize that he had acted too much, and even blamed Xie Zhaodi for not being strong enough to take a joke.

"I quit my job for you."

"what are you doing?"

Xie Hui's words made Xie Zhaodi withdraw from her emotions. The emotions that had been suppressed with great difficulty before were now gushing out with anger, and she was extremely angry for a while.

This person is as bad as he was when he was a child! I shouldn't have any hope for him just now!

Xie Hui moved the stool next to him, sat beside Xie Zhaodi, reached out and patted her shoulder, and said in a low voice:

"If Mom's situation is true, are you sure that your job allows you to take time off frequently?"

Of course not, Xie Zhaodi knew the answer very well. Just as she asked for two hours off, she was severely scolded by her boss.

However, she still couldn't accept Xie Hui's behavior for a while. For her, without a job or income, she has no sense of security at all.

All the emotions on the verge of collapse urgently need a venting point at this time.

"What about the mother's medical expenses? Shall we set up a stall and beg for food?"

Xie Zhaodi was so excited that her body was trembling slightly, helpless and worried to the extreme, tears became a luxury instead.

"My brother is here."
