Chapter 55: Action (2)

  Action (2)

  Rest days are extremely yearned for by everyone, especially for a lazy guy like Liao Xin who has been looking forward to it since last Sunday.

  "We have half a day off." Liao Xinxin lay on the big bed at home and talked to Shen Sijia on the phone, "Originally thought that this weekend would be deprived again, but unexpectedly your brother actually gave us half a day off. Oh my god, these two weeks haven't even had a good sleep, if there's no more holiday I'll go on strike."

  After Shen Sijia said something, Liao Xinxin jumped out of bed excitedly, "Really? Then wait for me, I'll change my clothes."

  She hung up the phone and stood still for a while until her bare feet felt the coolness of the floor, then she rushed to the living room with a smile, knocking over a small vase on the coffee table and a crystal apple on the TV cabinet along the way.

  "Liao Xin, what's wrong with you?!" Liao's mom poked her head out of the kitchen, looking at her daughter who was running wildly in the living room, and immediately frowned. "You silly girl, can't you behave like a proper girl for once? If you keep acting like this, who will dare to marry you?"

  "Heh heh." Liao Xinxin rubbed her hair, successfully making the already messy locks even more disheveled.

  "Didn't you say you wanted to sleep in today? How come you're up so early?" asked Liao's mother.

  "Going out with friends." Liao Xinxin suddenly remembered that Shen Sijia had asked her to go out and play, and this matter immediately restored its previous excitement.

  "You're a big girl, can't you be more steady? What are you looking for, that you have to mess up the living room like this? I just cleaned it!" Liao Ma looked at Liao Xinxin with dissatisfaction as she started another round of "chaos" in the living room, and quickly warned her to stop causing even greater destruction. "If you knock over anything else, you'll be responsible for cleaning the whole house for a week, since Auntie has things going on and can't come to clean this week."

  It turned out that Liao's mother's words were the most effective, and Liao Xin finally stopped her rampage in the living room. Of course, the greatest possibility was that she had already found what she needed. She was seen laboriously pulling out a box from behind the sofa and then trotting back to her own room with a pleased expression.

  "This dead girl, whatever she plays with, she just throws away, her own things are not placed in her own room, scattered everywhere." Liao Ma rolled her eyes and then retreated back into the kitchen, still muttering discontentedly, "This way, I'm afraid she won't be able to get married, when should we arrange for her to meet some people? This child is really a handful."

  Liao Xin's family lives in a pretty good neighborhood in W City. Her parents work for the municipal government, and although their positions are not very high, they are also not very low, so their income is quite substantial. Additionally, Liao Xin herself is interning at the Provincial Public Security Department, with a fairly thick salary.

  So, in this sense, Liao Xin Xin can also be considered a rich girl. Shen Si Jia leaned against her own car and looked at the apartment building where Liao Xin Xin's family lived, thinking like this. However, she didn't have the arrogance that girls from similar families usually had, but instead sometimes appeared silly, which was something Shen Si Jia liked very much. This was also one of the most important reasons why Shen Si Jia was willing to befriend Liao Xin Xin, another reason being that Liao Xin Xin was her older brother's subordinate, and it was normal for them to get close.

  Just then, her mobile phone rang. Shen Sijia took out her mobile phone from her bag and looked at the screen, it was her brother.

  "What made you call me? I thought you were dead." Shen Sijia asked bluntly as soon as she picked up the phone, "I remember it's been several days since you last called your own sister."

  "Shen Yu smiled a few times on that side, 'I'm really too busy, Si Jia. Please help me tell Dad and Mom.'"

  "The old man and the old lady are indeed open-minded, every time I mention that you haven't come home for a few days, they scold me for being disobedient and speak well of you. Hmph." Shen Sijia said discontentedly, "Speak up, what do you want me to do again? You only remember me when there's trouble, if there wasn't anything bothering you, would you have thought of me?"

  "It's not that I don't know, but it's just that you're so good." Shen Yu chuckled and said, "You go to Y University today and help me understand some things. You basically already know about the case in my hands, so I won't say much more. Sometimes it's really inconvenient for me to personally investigate things, and today is also a holiday for Yuan Fei and Liao Xin Xin, so I can only trouble you to go this time."

  "You've said that, of course I'll help you." Shen Sijia said, "Alright, you go ahead and busy yourself, remember to come home for dinner tonight."

  She hung up the phone, Shen Sijia pinched her mobile phone with tears in her eyes. She had just managed to think of going out for a stroll, but now she was stuck with this kind of thing again. It was really annoying. As she thought about it, she lifted her head and happened to see Liao Xinxin running towards her with an excited face, waving her hand almost like she was dancing. Her mood became even worse.

  It's better to keep this from the little girl, looking at her happy face, who knows how excited she is. If she knew that her superior Shen Yu had assigned a pile of work to his sister and planned to take advantage of her as free labor, she would probably cry on the ground.

  Then Shen Si Jia went over with a bright face and "enthusiastically" took Liao Xin Xin's bag, "Xin Xin you're here, hurry up and get in the car."

  Liao Xinxin was surprised to see Shen Dajie condescendingly offering to carry her bag, and she quickly smiled foolishly, "Xijia I'll get it myself, I can do it myself."

  Alas, such a simple girl. Shen Si Jia gazed sorrowfully at Liao Xin Xin's silly smile with more than ten big white teeth showing on her signboard face, and became even more determined not to mention the fact that she was going to treat her as a laborer.

  She was also for friendship. Shen Sijia thought so and helped Liao Xinxin open the passenger door, then got in herself.

  Liao Xinxin wasn't the first time sitting in Shen Sijia's car, but she still habitually widened her eyes to carefully appreciate the internal structure and decoration of the car before fastening her seatbelt. Then she asked Shen Sijia who was navigating and selecting routes, "Sijia, where are we going?"

  Shen Si Jia entered the navigation and chose a route that was a bit further away but not congested, while reversing the car with one eye on the rearview mirror, "I want to go to my alma mater first, see some of my teachers, then we'll go eat, I know a place with great Italian noodles."

  "Can't we not have ketchup? I don't like that stuff." As a professional lazybones and foodie, Liao Xinxin automatically filtered out Shen Sijia's first half sentence, only focusing on the topic of food afterwards. While complaining about ketchup, he was also salivating, "I haven't had breakfast yet, Sijia you're making me hungrier."

  "Oh." Shen Sijia glanced at her and turned the car out of the neighborhood, gradually speeding up. "Then let's hurry, I'm hungry too."
