Chapter 396 There Must Be a Xiaosheng
Wang Chao returned to the kitchen, and the contractor turned and walked towards the door.
Pei Yan gently pulled Gu Chaoxi, avoided the contractor, and the two walked towards the dining room.
When He Mei came out of the house, Wang Chao was already busy doing something in the kitchen.
She looked like she had just woken up, with her hair sticking to her face.
As if noticing the look in Gu Chaoxi's eyes, He Mei raised her hand and brushed the hair off her face.
Then she also went into the kitchen.
Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan entered through the dining room door, walked to the window and poked their heads inside.
"Hey, Master, do you have any more mung bean soup? It's very hot."
He Mei heard the voice and looked over here. She saw that both of them were bending over and Gu Chaoxi was fanning himself. She immediately responded.
"Yes, I'll give you two dozen for a bowl."
The two stood there for a while, and He Mei handed out two bowls of mung bean soup from the window.
Just as Gu Chaoxi was holding it in his hand, he heard a voice coming from the door: "Hey, Master, I want a bowl too."
Turning his head, Qin Wei and Shen Yao walked in from the door.
The girl was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and grey shorts. Probably to protect herself from the sun, she had a straw hat on her head and her hair was tied up behind her head.
At this moment, he folded his arms across his chest and looked at Gu Chaoxi with a smile.
"Good you, you didn't even call me."
"I didn't know whether you guys were awake or not just now, and you came here by yourself."
Gu Chaoxi laughed and took a sip of the mung bean soup.
The heat outside just now was indeed much better because of this, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"What did you find when you went out at noon?"
The four of them all took their mung bean soup and simply found a seat in the dining room to sit down, drinking it slowly while talking.
Qin Wei hadn't fallen asleep yet at noon. She vaguely heard the sound of the door opening next door and Pei Yan calling her.
But I was so sleepy at that time that I couldn't even open my eyelids, so I just let myself fall asleep.
In the afternoon, it was Shen Yao who went over and knocked on the door to wake her up.
I simply washed my face and hands with the water from the faucet in the room, and then I felt like I was alive again.
There were several large straw hats in her room. She picked out the newest one and put it on before going out.
It just so happened that I ran into Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan in the dining room.
Pei Yan shook his head slightly and explained to her: "I didn't find anything. I went to check the big hole on the side of the building, but it was nothing."
I really didn't find anything useful.
"But I just discovered that Wang Chao also knows a contractor, and they have a special relationship."
When Shen Yao and Qin Wei walked over here, they only saw a man wearing a safety helmet walking out of the door, but they didn't see his face.
Qin Wei's seat was originally facing the dining room window. At this moment, she raised her head towards that direction while drinking mung bean soup.
In the kitchen, He Mei and Wang Chao didn't know what they were busy with. They only saw the man reach out and snatch the basket of vegetables from the woman's hand.
There seemed to be a hint of curse in it.
She looked away, thoughtfully.
Gu Chaoxi heard it clearly. Wang Chao said that He Mei failed to do serious work every day, but was always rushing to do useless things in meetings.
That angry tone sounded more like he was taking his anger out on He Mei because of something that happened to He Mei's brother.
After drinking the mung bean soup, they didn't plan to stay here for long and prepared to go to the construction site.
In the morning, I basically spent my time getting familiar with my own posts and didn't run around everywhere.
Of course, the afternoon time is spent clarifying the relationships with all the influential people on the construction site.
When the empty bowl was returned, He Mei took it from the window.
Gu Chaoxi smiled and said thank you to her. She nodded without saying anything, and the smile on her face seemed a little forced.
Obviously, the negotiation with Wang Chao just now was not so ideal.
When I went out, I saw workers coming towards my dormitory one after another.
They mixed in with the workers and headed towards the construction site.
In the morning, the construction site received some new bricks and tiles and piled them on the open space in front of the building, like several large boxes.
There were two or three workers squatting in the shadow behind the brick pile, seemingly enjoying the cool air, and one of them even had a cigarette in his mouth.
But they didn't rest for long, because a man wearing a helmet came towards them.
"Hey, what are you doing? Go work, stop squatting here!"
The man waved his hands, sending them all away.
No one dared to complain and immediately trotted towards the construction site.
Gu Chaoxi glanced at the man, then looked away and motioned Qin Wei to look in that direction.
"That's the guy who was talking to Wang Chao at the kitchen door just now."
Qin Wei looked over, but only for a few seconds before looking away.
"There must be someone who knows everything on this construction site, right?"
She just couldn't believe that in such a large construction site with so many people working there, there wasn't a single know-it-all among them.
Shen Yao was not working at the same place as them in the morning, so he naturally went to the construction site on the right which was still under construction.
And the three of them went upstairs again.
The advantage of the upstairs floor is, of course, that the eighth floor under construction can provide them with shade so they don't have to be exposed to the sun all the time.
After all, the sunlight in that plane can really make people tan, but there is no sunscreen here.
When I went upstairs, I found that there were not so many people on the seventh floor.
This actually seemed like the three people were quite enthusiastic. There were a few workers leaning against the stairs on the other side, some even leaning against the edge of the stairs and chatting.
Gu Chaoxi narrowed his eyes and pointed in that direction.
"Among them, there must be someone who knows the relationship between the contractor and Wang Chao, right?"
Qin Wei smiled and immediately prepared to walk over there, but was pulled back by Gu Chaoxi.
"What's wrong? I'll go ask."
Gu Chaoxi didn't answer, but just raised his chin and gestured in that direction.
The group of people suddenly fell silent and dispersed instantly.
Looking down the stairs, they saw someone coming up. It turned out to be the contractor they had just talked about.
He was wearing a hard hat and his expression didn't look very good.
He stared at the people who were chatting just now, and saw that they all went to work. Then his expression relaxed a little and he raised his hand to take off the safety helmet on his head.
Wearing a hat, his hair was already soaked, and he raised his hands to rub it twice.
Seeing that there was no effect, he had to hold the safety helmet with one hand and use it as a fan to fan himself.
"It looks like it's the supervisor. Why don't we split up and ask around? Maybe we can get different things from each person."
As Gu Chaoxi spoke, he looked at the people who had just dispersed.
Qin Wei agreed with this statement, snapped his fingers, and walked towards a person on the left.
