However, what surprised and disappointed him was that Li Xiaoxiao's phone was still turned off. This puzzled Fang Zhiqiang: It stands to reason that Li Xiaoxiao also has to go to work in Yamei and has many things to contact other people. How could he keep turning off his phone? And it was shutting down at such a time, which made Fang Zhiqiang very worried.

Fang Zhiqiang thought that maybe he really had to go to Li Xiaoxiao’s house, or call Li Xiaoxiao’s father.

Although he had made up his mind, Fang Zhiqiang still really needed to cheer himself up when it came time to call Li Xiaoxiao’s father or go to Li Xiaoxiao’s house. He had met Li Xiaoxiao's father. Although he was majestic, he did not have that condescending air. When they met at that time, Fang Zhiqiang did not have any fear or timidity, because at that time he really had no other thoughts about Li Xiaoxiao, so he did not He was worried that he didn't care what Li Xiaoxiao's father thought of him, and he was anxious to find Li Xiaoxiao, so he could face it calmly, but now, he wanted to challenge Li Xiaoxiao's parents to win their change and recognition of him.

Frankly speaking, Fang Zhiqiang feels that this is difficult or even impossible. He has always thought so, so he has always been unwilling to face it. But this time was different, he could no longer leave Li Xiaoxiao alone.

Fang Zhiqiang held his mobile phone and was about to check Li Xiaoxiao’s father’s number, but the ringtone suddenly rang. With the vibration, Fang Zhiqiang suddenly became energetic. His first reaction was that Li Xiaoxiao turned on the phone. Called him back.

Before he could get excited, the moment he saw the screen, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured on him.

The caller number was not Li Xiaoxiao’s, but Li Xiaoxiao’s father’s. Fang Zhiqiang directly saved the caller like this at that time.

Fang Zhiqiang was stunned. He even thought that he had not noticed that he had dialed out while he was still struggling. However, the ringtone and vibration of the incoming call reminded him that it was from the other party. Rather than what he dialed out.

Fang Zhiqiang took a deep breath and answered the phone. He had a hunch that it would not be a good thing if Li Xiaoxiao's father took the initiative to call him. But what should come will eventually come, and what should be faced must be faced, not to mention that he originally had to talk to Li Xiaoxiao's parents.

"Hey, Uncle... Hello, Mr. Li." Fang Zhiqiang originally wanted to call Uncle, but he changed it to Mr. Li instead. Originally, because he retrieved Li Xiaoxiao from Tibet, Li Xiaoxiao's father's impression of him suddenly changed and he asked him to call himself uncle. But under the current circumstances, it can only be said that he has harmed Xiaoxiao again. He doesn't know what Li Xiaoxiao's father will think of him. He probably hates himself, so he doesn't want Li Xiaoxiao's father to think that he is deliberately trying to get closer.

Li Xiaoxiao’s father’s voice seemed a little tired: “Xiao Fang,, we have said before, don't be so rude, just call me uncle. You are Xiaoxiao’s friend and benefactor, just like our own family members. ”

Fang Zhiqiang was a little confused. He didn’t know what Li Xiaoxiao’s father said about his attitude towards the matter between him and Li Xiaoxiao. He couldn’t tell from the tone of Li Xiaoxiao’s father’s voice. Any clues could come out. While he was still thinking, he heard Li Xiaoxiao's father say again: "Xiao Fang, I'm really sorry. I disturbed you so early in the morning. It was because of Xiaoxiao's matter. I feel really ashamed to say it. , I have only had such a daughter in my whole life, but I failed to take good care of and educate her. I spoiled her too much and always disobeyed and got into trouble, so I troubled you again and again. I also want to ask this time, Xiaofang, I wonder if you have time. Her mother and I want to talk to you about Xiaoxiao. It may cause trouble for you, but there is really nothing we can do about it. Besides, this matter has something to do with you after all..."

"Uncle, how is Xiaoxiao, is she okay? "This is the issue that Fang Zhiqiang is most concerned about. He has already heard that Li Xiaoxiao's father wants to negotiate with him, and not surprisingly, he probably does not want him to be with Li Xiaoxiao.
< br />Li Xiaoxiao’s father sighed, his voice finally showing deep concern: “Thank you for your concern, Xiaoxiao... her current situation is not good. Let's do this, Xiao Fang, when is convenient for you, let's have a good talk in person. I have troubled you again and again, but I still feel sorry for you, and I am very grateful to you. I have long thought about asking you to come over to my house to have a meal and chat, but there was no chance. Check your time. Whenever it's convenient for you, I'll be here. ”

Li Xiaoxiao’s father is probably really anxious. With his status, it may not be possible for anyone who wants to see him to make an appointment in advance, but now he is worried about Li Xiaoxiao’s situation. , for him now, nothing is more important than Li Xiaoxiao, that’s why he is so eager to talk to Fang Zhiqiang face to face.

“I can do it at any time. Uncle, you decide. "Fang Zhiqiang said, he had originally planned to have a serious discussion with Li Xiaoxiao to resolve this matter, and he also put this matter first.

Li Xiaoxiao's father thanked him repeatedly: " Thank you, Xiaofang. I'm sorry to disturb your normal schedule. Well, you live in Xiaoxiao’s house now, right? There is a XX cafe in the community over there. The environment is not bad. We will meet there in a while. Do you think that's okay? ”

Fang Zhiqiang didn’t know what Li Xiaoxiao’s father meant when he mentioned that he lived in Li Xiaoxiao’s house and then arranged the meeting place here. He just mentioned it casually and thought of such a place. Or she wanted to remind him of something. He didn't have the time to think too much and could only agree: "Okay, uncle, I'll go over and wait for you first. ”

Li Xiaoxiao’s fatherThe cafe in question was nearby, and Fang Zhiqiang drove there in a few minutes. After he entered, he called for a box and sat down to wait for Li Xiaoxiao's parents.

His mood fell into confusion again. Li Xiaoxiao’s father was polite from beginning to end, but the sense of distance that could be created was too obvious, and it was impossible for Fang Zhiqiang to feel it. Before long, he already knew very well that Li Xiaoxiao's parents probably wanted to have a thorough negotiation with him.

In fact, when he thought of this, Fang Zhiqiang’s heart felt like it was being cut open, because it meant that what he had to face was the most direct criticism of Li Xiaoxiao’s parents. It also directly tore his self-esteem into pieces and threw it to the ground, and then stepped on it a few times. Although it was a seemingly polite method, the damage was not reduced at all.

Fang Zhiqiang was thinking blankly, how he should face it.

About half an hour later, the waiter led Li Xiaoxiao’s parents in. Fang Zhiqiang stood up quickly: "Hello, uncle and aunt."
