Chapter Thirty-Eight

  After Fang Yu left, it was time for Jingran and Xiao Hei to relax. Jiang Chuan would take them out and put them on the table to let them roam around for a while - in most cases, Jingran couldn't roam around and would instead look for the fruit that Jiang Chuan had intentionally left behind, peck at it a few times, and then leave contentedly. Xiao Hei, on the other hand, would squat on the table like an old man watching TV. According to routine, Jingran would find the fruit on the table, peck at it a few times, and then leave with a satisfied expression. Then, he would casually find something like a coaster, eat the fruit hidden in his mouth while propping up his hind legs, and watch TV.

  But today is different.

  Today, just as Jiang Chuan had barely closed the door that Fang Yu had left through, it was knocked on again. Jiang Chuan, who had been disturbed countless times that morning, opened the door with a look of great annoyance, and then came face to face with Fei, who was standing outside holding a cardboard box full of file folders in his arms. From where he was squatting on the coffee table, the hamster could clearly see that Jiang Chuan's eyes flashed with impatience as he quickly scanned a certain part of the top folder on the box before trying to close the door again.

  Just then, Fein, who had already anticipated this reaction, stuck his head in the door - which was about to be closed, and it pinched his head. Fein cried out: "Ahh!!!"

  Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment, while at this time, Fei N had taken the opportunity to rush into the house like an eel, hugging the cardboard box and stumbling. Jiang Chuan was forced to add "Get me slippers" behind him. Only then did Fei N put down the precious cardboard box in his arms, hopping on one foot wanting slippers - at the same time, Jiang Chuan quickly picked up the cardboard box on the ground, turned around and came to the window, pushed open the window -

  "Throw away those things in that box and tomorrow you'll find your apartment building surrounded by strange people."

  “……”

  Jiang Chuan expressionlessly pulled his hand back in through the window.

  "News came from that side today, underboss confirmed to be imprisoned, will be sent to that place within three months."

  Jiang Chuan heard this and was slightly stunned. He put down the paper box in his arms, thought for a moment, and said numbly: "Oh."

  "It's surrendering."

  “……”

  Underboss? What the heck is that? Jin Yan twisted his neckless head back and forth between Jiang Chuan and Fein - and then sat down at the dinner table, grabbed Jiang Chuan's unfinished breakfast and started munching away without any courtesy. As he chewed, Fein said a bunch of German words, which Jin Yan didn't understand a single word of, but judging from Jiang Chuan's expression, it wasn't anything good, because after Fein finished speaking, this big brother's eyebrows were furrowed so tightly they could squash flies.

  Of course, even so, he still looks very handsome.

  "So?" Jiang Chuan asked in Chinese, "What does it mean that you're bringing so many things from the Fang family to me?"

  Fein also changed into Chinese, and a lucky smile appeared on the typical German handsome face: "It was brought over by Ben's family, otherwise I wouldn't dare to. I heard it was that relative, saying that if he couldn't come out, let you temporarily replace him for now, and if not, letting you take his place is no big deal——ah, being able to say such irresponsible words with you is really like two brothers, boss almost got furious……"

  "How did you get so sentimental."

  "That guy probably doesn't even know that his beloved younger cousin has already run away from home and is now in Tianjin trying to become a big star!" Fei En was eating when he suddenly gave Jiang Chuan a thumbs up, "The other old men are almost dying of envy, our Capo knows this news and is both happy and angry, happy that he knows you can't escape, angry that he knows you will try to escape as much as possible..."

  Jiang Chuan put down the box and turned around to walk back into the house. When he came out again, Jian Yan was surprised to see that Jiang Chuan had a mobile phone in his hand. The fact that Jiang Chuan had another mobile phone was also astonishing, and the phone didn't seem to be any brand that was commonly available on the market. Jian Yan turned to look at Fei En, who was eating an oil strip while watching with great interest as Jiang Chuan turned on the phone.

  At the moment Jiang Chuan started the engine, all sorts of vibrations and monotonous ringing sounds rushed in, almost making Jian Ran think it was a ghost.

  Jiang Chuan seemed to have expected this and didn't care that his phone was still vibrating with short message notifications, quickly dialing a number. The call was picked up soon after, Jiang Chuan said "hello" - as a hamster, his hearing wasn't bad, he thought he would hear the person's voice on the other end of the line, but in fact, he didn't hear anything, Jiang Chuan's phone had an amazing noise-cancelling effect.

  So it seems that Jian Chuan's expression on his face was the only clue, after he casually said a Chinese phrase, he was probably teased... no, should be bantered.

  Jiang Chuan revealed a helpless expression, let out a long sigh, and switched to German, saying something that even a hamster could understand: "Do you still have the mood to joke with me at this time?"

  On the other end of the phone, he didn't know what was said again. Jiang Chuan turned his head and glanced at the cardboard box placed beside him, reluctantly humming a sound, then paused, furrowed his brow, and said "no way" - while at this time, the person on the other end seemed to have anticipated that he would say so, probably haggling over the price. Anyway, in the end, Jiang Chuan relaxed slightly, saying firmly: "One person, one half, your father is very suspicious, I don't want to be bothered by him."

  From Fei's expression, Jianran guessed that Jiangchuan probably said something bad about someone in a very straightforward way... Apart from the key words "your father is paranoid" and "looking for trouble", Jianran also understood "one person, half" - probably meaning that this box of things, Jiangchuan would split it with the person on the phone, one half each? ... Probably.

  Having a heart of Bagua, the fire is burning fiercely, I'm really tired of guessing and speculating games.

  If he is given another chance as a human being, he will definitely study German hard.

  However, although he couldn't understand, it didn't bother the owner of the hamster yy.

  At this moment, Mr. Yuan, the hamster who was completely confused about what had happened, suddenly became active in his brain - based on the many scripts and script ideas he had seen over the years, a melodramatic story was gradually taking shape: The legitimate heir of a foreign aristocratic family committed a crime and went to prison, when everyone was eyeing the family business, this heir suddenly appointed one of his cousins as his agent to handle the family business while in prison. However, this cousin was also a man who disliked the struggle for benefits and had clean sleeves... When the other family members were envying and resentful of this lucky person's decision, he had already left the family territory, ran away from home, came to our great China, abandoned his worries, and happily played the role of a small-time actor in the entertainment industry who was about to star in a TV series...

  Here is the translation:

  "Ah, right, let me add some background setting: this big family might be a mafia or something, they mentioned the word 'boss', which is usually used by foreign gangs to refer to their leader."

  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

  How is it possible.

  The hamster was entertained by its own brain hole, and in the gaze of Xiao Hei's crazy eyes, it happily rolled on the table, rubbed its belly, and watched Jiang Chuan hang up the phone and carry that box of things into the bedroom. At this time, Fein, who was left in the living room, saw Jiang Chuan seem to make a "compromise" gesture by putting down those things, also put down the food in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, let out a long sigh, and muttered: "Why didn't you do that earlier? You had to hang up a long-distance call to listen to him persuade you personally before agreeing. Now we're so poor, where can we afford to make long-distance calls?"

  A monotonous ringing sound came from inside the house.

  Fei Yen was taken aback: "You're shutting down again?"

  Jiang Chuan walked out, leaning against the door frame, one hand still holding the phone, tossing it in his hand and curling up the corner of his mouth, saying very narcissistically: "If you keep nagging me, I'll smash it to pieces."

  But Fei was threatened, and he closed his mouth, wolfing down the breakfast that Fang Yu had brought over like a starving ghost. Then Jiang Chuan took out the shopping list that Fang Yu had left behind and handed it to Fei, saying he needed to go shopping. Fei took the list and casually stuffed it into his pocket, drank the last bit of doufu hua from his bowl, stood up, and made like he was ready to leave at any moment.

  Jiang Chuan closed the door of his bedroom - click, and locked it with a smooth motion.

  This guy never closed his bedroom door before.

  Then he walked over, stretched out his hand and first touched Jian Ran's ear: "Ah Fei, I'm going out for a trip. You stay at home and don't run around."

  She carefully grasped his fingers with her hands and rubbed them gently.

  Jiang Chuan pretended to want to touch Xiao Hei, but unfortunately, a certain milk tea was holding his finger tightly and refused to let go, even pulling in the opposite direction. After struggling for a while, the man gave up trying to communicate with Xiao Hei, withdrew his hand, stood up, and followed Fei Ern out the door, who had been waiting by the entrance, wearing her shoes for some time.

  "You talk so much to the hamster but it still can't understand."

  "Mind your own business."

  “……”

  The door was shut with a bang.

  At the same time, the hamster who was still squatting on the tea table watching its owner leave just a second ago suddenly jumped up, opened its arms and "plop" jumped onto the sofa cushion. In the moment it landed safely, it felt a pair of small black eyes staring at it from behind: "Didn't that guy tell you not to run around?"

  "He said to stay home and don't run around." Jin Ran got up without looking back, shaking his fat butt, "I'm not going out, where is the running around?"

  Xiao Hei: *silence*

  While speaking, he started to try to climb onto the computer desk, where there were scripts and a pen that Jiang Chuan used for script annotation, as well as the computer - in short, everything Jian Ran needed was on it. After the makeup room incident, Jian Ran's climbing ability had improved dramatically, so this time, he only took ten minutes to successfully lie on the surface of the computer desk, panting heavily.

  At first, I thought it would be less tiring to type on a computer.

  The computer was not turned off but had been in a long period of non-use hibernation, so the hamster jumped onto the touchpad without hesitation.

  Rubbing, rubbing, like the devil's footsteps!

  The computer screen is on!

  That ray of light shone on the hamster's body, as if a holy aura enveloped it. At that moment, Jian Ran felt his own shadow was exceptionally tall and majestic!

  Turned his head, slightly raised his body to take a look, great, at this time the computer was working in the middle of a half-used Word document that was already open, which directly eliminated the trouble of how a hamster could control the mouse to open Word. He couldn't believe that God was so fond of himself, and he jumped onto the external keyboard.

  Then the problem was solved.

  Jiang Chuan's keyboard is too soft.

  When he jumped up and tried to press out a "I am Yuan Jinyan" with his paws, he found that on the Word screen was "My soft law gives her hair".

  Jian Ran: "………………………………"

  What the hell.

  It turned around, trying to delete the string of characters after "I", but found that when it finally reached the keyboard's delete key, the text on the screen had changed to "My soft law gave her hair a ghostly thin mint oh beer oh".

  It looks like something just rolled over the keyboard with its face.

  He stared blankly for a moment, then finally realized what had happened. He looked down at his right hind paw, which was currently pressing the "L" key, and gazed at the deeply indented "L" in a daze as the screen rapidly auto-filled with "啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦——"

  When I lifted my head and found that the Word document had already been filled with "啦" for almost half a page, I calmly thought to myself without any expression: This is probably the joyful singing voice emitted by his inner grass mud horse galloping wildly at this moment.
