Chapter 016 The Man Hiding in the Ceiling

"Don't worry, Xiaoxue!"

Xia Donghai said, "Of course we can't possibly think Xiaoxuan is the culprit!"

"What's suspicious are the three strange customers Xiaoxuan mentioned!"

Xiaoyu said.

"Yes, one is a gamer, who looks like a college student; another is a rather timid but very polite office worker; and the last one is a stubborn old woman..."

Liu Mei said, "Hmm... the things they often buy here are: the gamer buys mostly instant noodles and fast food; the office worker buys toothbrush sets, batteries, razors, and towels, like he's going on a trip; the old woman just chats with the people in the shop but doesn't buy anything. All three seem a little suspicious, yet not quite."

"Could it be a thief?"

Xiaoyu said.

“Everyone says it’s impossible! Didn’t the store manager install security cameras?”

“It’s impossible for a thief!”

Liu Xing suddenly said, “The problem is, after she was suspected by the store manager and scolded for it, the merchandise immediately stopped disappearing. But just yesterday, a month later, on her shift again, a large amount of merchandise was stolen. So, if that’s the case…”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Liu Xing’s mind, and he asked, “Um, Sister Xiaoxuan, did you do anything special on your shift?”

“No… nothing!”

Zhang Xuan shook her head, “Just cleaning the store!”

“Store manager, did you notice anything?”

Liu Xing asked.

“Nothing!”

the store manager said.

“Even something small! Anything!”

Liu Xing said.

“Um…”

a shop assistant who had been watching the commotion suddenly said, “It’s not a big deal, but the shop is especially clean on the days Xiaoxuan is on duty! Look how neatly she organized all the boxes that arrived before closing time. The rest of us just left the sorting to the next morning’s staff, leaving them piled up here before we went home. Isn’t the manager doing the same thing?”

“Hmph!”

the manager snorted, “Trying to at least atone for his sins, huh? But I won’t fall for it!”

“No, no!”

Zhang Xuan cried out aggrievedly.

“The boxed lunches are the same…”

the manager sneered, “The ones that are missing are mostly those nearing their expiration date. They thought they could just steal a few since they were going to throw them away anyway, right? But a thief is a thief, so let’s call the police to investigate!”

“No need!”

Liu Xing suddenly smiled, “Because I know who stole the things!”

“What?”

Everyone was shocked, and Liu Mei quickly said, “Then Liu Xing, tell us quickly!”

"Don't rush! Actually, this guy should be a decent person! Hehe, now I'll make him show himself!"

Liu Xing chuckled, then went into the restroom, closed the door, and suddenly shouted, "Fire! Fire! Help! Fire! Fire! Fire! Everyone run! Run! You'll be burned to death if you don't hurry!"

Everyone was startled, and the shop manager shouted from outside, "Stop! If you don't stop right now, I'll sue you for obstructing normal business!"

At this moment, the door opened, and Liu Xing walked out with a smile, saying in a low voice, "Don't rush, the show is about to begin!"

The shop manager and the others were stunned, and then suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from the ceiling, followed by a person running out of the restroom like lightning. Liu Xing immediately stopped him, then pushed him to the ground, chuckling, "It really is you, you're the criminal!"

"How could this be?"

Zhang Xuan looked at the person, stunned, "How could it be you!"

"Who is he? Liu Xing, what's going on?"

Xiao Xue cried out, and everyone looked at Liu Xing with puzzled expressions.

Liu Xing smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoxuan, you tell us who this person is!"

Zhang Xuan nodded and said, "Okay, he's that very polite but cowardly company employee!"

"Could it be this person?"

the shopkeeper asked in surprise.

"That's right, the culprit who stole things from this store last night, causing Sister Xiaoxuan to carry painful memories, is this person!"

Liu Xing smiled.

"You said last night..."

the shopkeeper said doubtfully, "But I was watching the front of the store all night, and I didn't see this person sneak in!"

"Of course you couldn't have seen him!"

Liu Xing said, "That's because this person has been living in the ceiling of the toilet in this store!"

"Ah? Is that so?"

Everyone was shocked.

Liu Xing said, "After Sister Xiaoxuan closed the store, this person opened the ceiling panel of the toilet, went into the store, and took a lot of food and drinks to barely survive."

"But Xiaoxuan only works two or three days a week..."

the shopkeeper said.

"If it's like this every day, stealing a certain amount of things at once would only take two or three days!"

Liu Xing said.

"But why steal games and CDs?"

Xiaoyu asked.

“Those things might be secretly taken out of the store occasionally to sell, and then use the money to get a haircut and a bath or something…”

Liu Xing said, “Otherwise, his hair would just get longer and longer, and he’d be filthy, and he’d never be able to get out of the ceiling.”

Liu Mei asked, “But can he enter and exit the toilet without being noticed by the customers and staff? If he suddenly comes out of the toilet, or goes in and doesn’t come out, he’ll be suspected immediately.” “It’s okay…”

Liu Xing said, “If he’s a very polite and careful person, he can give up his toilet spot to others one by one, and be at the end of the line, so no one will see him enter the toilet. Even if he doesn’t come out, it’s okay, right? He can enter the toilet through the ceiling before it gets crowded. When the toilet gets crowded, he can come out of the toilet and enter the store, blending in with the customers without being suspected. If he’s been living in the ceiling all along, he should know when the toilet gets crowded, and when the toilet is crowded, the store should also be crowded. The staff shouldn’t remember who’s going in and out of the store, right?”

“Then what is this person buying the toothbrush set, razor, dry batteries, and towel for?”

Xiao Xue asked.

Liu Xing said, "The dry cell batteries are for flashlights used to find merchandise in the dark after closing time. The others are just everyday necessities. There should also be toilet paper and soap in the restroom!"

"Manager, just like that boy said..."

a clerk walked into the restroom, "The ceiling panels have been removed!"

"What did you say?"

The manager was startled and ran into the restroom, "So it really was hidden inside the ceiling?"

The clerk climbed up the ceiling using the toilet and found it full of trash.

The store manager exclaimed, "That's outrageous! But speaking of which, why is it always only when Xiaoxuan is on duty..."

Liu Xing said, "That's because Sister Xiaoxuan is very conscientious about her work. The other employees just pile up the boxes in this aisle and go back, making it impossible for the prisoners to walk through. But Xiaoxuan neatly arranges them on both sides, so the prisoners can walk through when they come out of the toilet in the middle of the night." "

But they're just boxes; they can be moved a little to get through..."

Liu Mei said.

“Indeed, moving the box might be possible, but if the staff finds out it was moved afterward, they'll suspect someone walked through the aisle, and suspicion will extend to the restrooms, potentially exposing what was hidden in the ceiling…”

Liu Xing said. “That's why he didn't go through, that's how it is.”

“I see, but I still don't understand…”

the shopkeeper said, “Why hasn't he taken it for a month?” Liu Xing said, “Maybe during this time, he made a living selling games and CDs.”

“But if you hadn't stopped at that exact moment, I wouldn't have suspected Xiao Xuan so much.”

“This guy might not be a bad person…”

Liu Xing said, “I think he stopped because he heard Xiao Xuan being scolded because of his mistake from inside the ceiling.” “I see, that's how it is!”

Liu Mei and the others suddenly understood.

“Stealing some lunchboxes that were about to expire was also to minimize the store's losses…”

Liu Xing continued.

"But a thief is still a thief!"

Xiaoxue shouted. "You really went too far by making Xiaoxuan suffer like that. You should be arrested and jailed!"

"I'm so sorry!" Still relying on your hands? How can that be enjoyable? Forum reputation guaranteed! 3D male masturbator anime virgin physical sex toy highly realistic genital shape! Swallowing and spitting out, irresistible! Click to enter

The man immediately burst into tears, "Three months ago I was fired from my company, and because I couldn't pay the rent, I was kicked out of my rented house. I was so hungry I was staggering. I went into this store, but I didn't have any money to buy anything. While I was spacing out in the toilet, the lights suddenly went out. I wanted to go out but I was locked out. Then, after gradually adjusting to the darkness, I saw a mountain of food..."

"So you took everything from my store!"

the store manager said with a gloomy face.

"Hehe, yes, I thought there was so much, taking a little wouldn't be a problem..."

the man chuckled.

"What a joke! How many items would you have to sell to earn back the money you took? Do you know that?"

the store manager yelled.

"I'm sorry..."

the man was completely frightened.

"In short, you have to compensate for that part of the loss,"

the shopkeeper said coldly.

"But... I don't have a single penny..."

the man said in a low voice.

"Then you can work here!"

the shopkeeper said. "Of course, you won't get paid at first, but you'll be provided with food and lodging! Understand?"

"Are you hiring me? I've caused you so much trouble, and you still..."

the man was clearly stunned.

"I was also laid off from my company and started this shop, so I understand how you feel!"

the shopkeeper smiled.

"Thank you, shopkeeper!"

"Work hard!"

the shopkeeper smiled.

"I'm sorry to have spoiled everyone's fun..."

Xiaoxue suddenly said, "Could you please apologize properly to Xiaoxuan, both of you? You must apologize!"

"Okay! I'm sorry!"

the two quickly apologized.

Then, Liu Xing's family went back, but along the way, everyone admired Liu Xing very much. Xiaoxue even thought to herself, "This Liu Xing is actually proficient in deduction, he's really amazing!

" Chapter 017 Xiaoxue Likes Gorillas Xia Donghai and Liu Mei have been married for quite some time now, and their new home is relatively harmonious, with the members getting along well. Everything seems to be progressing smoothly on the path to happiness.

However , there's still a slight obstacle in their path: Xiaoxue's instinctive rejection of her new mother, Liu Mei. Having lived together for so long, Xiaoxue has never called Liu Mei "Mom" even once! Xiaoxue has been acting strangely lately! Here's what happened: for several days in a row, Xiaoxue has been coming home very late, and she's always covered in dirt and grass clippings! Liu Mei is very puzzled. "Has Xiaoxue gone to scavenge?" Liu Xing noticed and found it strange. He asked and learned that Xiaoxue had missed a self-study period to attend the opening ceremony of a biology summer camp. Since it was a field exercise, her clothes had been a bit dirty lately. Liu Xing thought about it and decided it wasn't a good thing, so he didn't tell Liu Mei or the others. That evening, Liu Mei was mending Xiaoxue's torn clothes in the bedroom, sighing as she sewed. Suddenly, Xiao Yu walked in mysteriously and whispered, "Sister skipped class today, and the teacher made her write a self-criticism!" Liu Mei was startled and immediately pricked her hand with the needle, drawing blood. "How did you know?" she asked hurriedly. Xiaoyu said seriously, "My sister just told her on the phone with her classmate, and she seemed very unhappy." I don't even know how to write the word "happy" anymore! Liu Mei's heart sank. Just as Xiaoyu left, Xia Donghai came in. He stretched, looking exhausted, and said, "I'm really tired today, I need to rest early..." "No rest!" Liu Mei said gravely, "I have to tell you about Xiaoxue!" Tell her about Xiaoxue? "Oh, she got another 'Three Good Student' award... What a good girl." Xia Donghai said wearily, slowly lying back down on the bed. "She skipped class today!" Liu Mei was worried, muttering to herself. "Skipping class? Liu Xing skipped class again? You have to find out! Liu Xing has officially reformed..." Xia Donghai opened his eyes slightly. "I'm talking about Xiaoxue! It was Xiaoxue who skipped class!" "What? That's impossible!" Xia Donghai sat up abruptly, all his drowsiness gone. Liu Mei, her mind heavy with worry, told Xia Donghai the whole story, sighing as she spoke, her voice filled with concern. Xia Donghai was instantly wide awake. What's wrong with Xiaoxue? Even that mischievous Liu Xing won't skip class now that a good teacher has come to their class! Xia Donghai said in a panic, "There's probably something else we don't know. There's definitely much more we don't know than we do know!"

"Things might be much more serious than we imagine, far more serious!"

Liu Mei added.

The couple sighed deeply, lost in sorrow.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu rushed in, her face filled with panic: "Dad! Mom! Xiao Xue and her brother—"

"What happened to Xiao Xue?"

Liu Mei jumped up, completely ignoring Liu Xing.

"A kitchen knife!" "A kitchen knife

?"

"A hanging rope!"

"A hanging rope?"

Xia Donghai and Liu Mei's eyes widened, like two goldfish. Xiao Yu

gestured breathlessly: "My sister and brother took these two things, came into the house, and closed the door!"

Ah? Suicide? Xia Donghai and Liu Mei were shocked.

"Xiao Xue! Please don't do anything foolish!"

The couple shouted, rushing into their daughter's bedroom.

In Xiao Xue's bedroom,

they saw Xiao Xue standing on a stool, Liu Xing supporting her, Xiao Xue winding the rope around herself, her eyes closed, looking focused and calm.

Xia Donghai and Liu Mei rushed in in a panic. Liu Mei immediately grabbed Xiao Xue and pulled Liu Xing away, while Xia Donghai quickly snatched the rope away.

Xiao Xue and Liu Xing were startled.

"Where's the knife?"

Xia Donghai shouted.

"Here it is,"

Xiao Yu handed it to him.

Liu Mei pleaded with her, "Xiao Xue, if you're having trouble thinking, tell me. How could you try to kill yourself? And you, Liu Xing, you have food and drink, why are you trying to kill yourself? You're so capable!"

"I don't have time to chat,"

Xiao Xue said, bewildered. "I'm so busy!"

Liu Xing was startled, realizing they had misunderstood, and said, "Well, actually..."

"Don't work yourself to death! Liu Xing, and you, aren't you involved in this?"

Liu Mei interrupted Liu Xing, shouting loudly.

"What are you thinking?"

Xiaoxue seemed to realize her parents had misunderstood and quickly explained, "I just wanted to use the rope and pictures to simulate an abstract food chain. Liu Xing came to help me."

A food chain, also known as a biological chain, is the ecological cycle of big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimp. Xia Donghai and Liu Mei understood this. However, Xia Donghai was puzzled: "Then what are you doing with the knife?"

"Cutting the rope!"

Xiaoxue laughed and cried at the same time, "Do you expect me to bite the rope with my teeth? Liu Xing has helped me a lot; he seems to know everything!"

She looked at Liu Xing gratefully.

Liu Xing smiled slightly and quickly explained to Xia Donghai and Liu Mei what had happened.

After all that scare, Liu Mei and Xia Donghai breathed a sigh of relief.

"I want to use this summer camp as a starting point to become China's Jenny Goodall in the future!"

Xiaoxue declared excitedly to her parents.

"Hahaha, okay then, go and enjoy your summer camp! We're leaving! But don't let it interfere with your studies!"

Xia Donghai laughed.

"Mmm!"

Xiaoxue nodded with a smile.

"Jenny Goodall?"

As she left Xiaoxue's bedroom, Liu Mei still couldn't remember who she was.

Liu Xing told her, "She's a British woman, the one who lives and studies wild gorillas year-round, quite famous."

Ah? Liu Mei immediately became worried: Was Xiaoxue going to follow her example? Dedicate her youth to gorillas?

Liu Xing and Xia Donghai saw through Liu Mei's thoughts. Liu Xing laughed, "Mom, it's not that serious. Xiaoxue isn't stupid; she won't dedicate her youth to gorillas. She just has a wide range of interests!"

"But gorillas bite!"

Liu Mei exclaimed.

Oh well, what else could they say? Gorillas are vegetarians! Liu Xing and Xia Donghai thought in unison.

Finally, Xiaoxue was about to leave for summer camp again.

"Be careful when you go out. Even though you like gorillas, you can't let them eat you,"

Liu Mei repeatedly warned.

Xiaoxue was both amused and exasperated: "Gorillas are vegetarians, didn't you know?"

Liu Mei was embarrassed and quickly changed the subject: "Don't try to stop them if you see them fighting, lest you get caught in the crossfire."

"You don't understand them at all! Gorillas are very social animals and rarely fight,"

Xiaoxue couldn't help but laugh.

Liu Mei was speechless, extremely embarrassed.

Everyone crowded around to see Xiaoxue out. Liu Xing said proudly, "Xiaoxue, go ahead without worry! But I hope that when you see the gorillas, you'll understand how handsome your two younger brothers are!

" "Yes! Yes!"

Xiaoyu echoed.

Xiaoxue left with a smile.

Liu Mei was a little disappointed, clenched her fist, and promised her husband: "To have something in common with our daughter, I'll start cramming on gorilla knowledge from now on and quickly become a gorilla myself!" "

A crash course in gorilla studies?" Xia Donghai was startled.

Liu Xing was speechless, thinking to himself that his mother was really doting on her daughter. Now she wanted to do another research project. Last time it was F4 and mice, and this time it's gorillas!

Then, Liu Mei's next words made things difficult for Liu Xing: "Liu Xing, I know your computer is working well now, and you're studying hard. Quickly go online and search for all the information related to gorillas! Xia Donghai, tell me more about gorillas, I need a crash course!"

"Huh?"

Liu Xing and Xia Donghai were speechless.

※※※

Chapter 018 Mom, thank you .

On the day Xiaoxue left, Liu Mei started cramming on gorilla knowledge, and Liu Xing had no choice but to tell her a lot about gorillas.

"Gorillas are the largest apes, belonging to the Apistoniaidae family, and mainly live in the equatorial region of Africa..."

As night fell, Xia Donghai yawned and said, "Wife, is that enough for today? Go to sleep!" Liu Mei ignored her and continued muttering, "

Many people mistakenly believe that gorillas are savage animals, which is probably the biggest injustice in the animal kingdom. In fact, they are not aggressive at all. Even when fighting for dominance, male gorillas rarely fight... Hey!"

Liu Mei exclaimed, "You know, those male doctors in our hospital are always fighting over that attending physician position, they're not even as good as chimpanzees!"

"Alright..."

Xia Donghai said helplessly, "Let's stop with this kind of associative thinking, shall we?"

"I have to hold back!"

Liu Mei said irritably, continuing, "The gorilla's position in the animal world is both awkward and delicate. It has countless connections with humans and is a living example of human ancestors! Thirty million years ago, it had a chance to become human, but because it was lazy and refused to come down from the tree, it has been forever trapped in the herd..."

"Hey, so that means if it hadn't been lazy 30 million years ago and had climbed down from the tree, we might already be in Star Wars by now! Right, Xia Donghai?"

"Ugh, you've gone on and on about 30 million years ago! Aren't you sleepy? Humans and apes both need sleep!"

Xia Donghai said impatiently.

Liu Mei continued, "Apes have every reason to think, 'Just a little bit more, and I'd succeeded!' Humans could also think—'Just a little bit more, and I'd become a beast!' Just a little bit more..."

"Just a little bit more and it's almost 1 a.m.! "

Xia Donghai protested. "Madam, please rest now!"

Liu Mei had to put down her book, still wanting more.

The next day at noon, Liu Mei absentmindedly prepared lunch. Liu Xing was reading a book when Liu Mei, seemingly lost in thought, suddenly asked, "Why do apes refuse to evolve?"

Liu Xing was startled, thinking Liu Mei was talking about him, and he mumbled, "Give me a reason to evolve!"

"Why don't apes talk?"

Liu Mei murmured to herself.

"Mom, what did you want me to say?"

Liu Xing asked, bewildered.

Liu Mei struggled to recall: "It's about the differentiation process of the hearing loss gene."

"My ears are perfectly fine!"

Liu Xing emphasized.

"Chimpanzees are the closest relatives."

"Is that even a question? I am your closest relative!"

At this moment, Xia Donghai came out of the house stretching. "Is there any food?"

Liu Xing asked, "Let me see!"

He reluctantly opened the rice cooker.

Immediately, he stared in disbelief at the rice soaking in cold water and asked, "Mom, what are we having today?"

"Rice!"

Liu Mei said.

"Raw rice soaking in cold water? 'Rice' in the truest sense?"

Xia Donghai exclaimed in surprise, "Is this for a chimpanzee?"

Of course not. Liu Mei had simply forgotten to turn on the power switch.

Xia Donghai sighed, opened the refrigerator, and wondered what good food was available. Suddenly, he screamed and shakily pulled a handful of bamboo leaves from the refrigerator: "When did bamboo leaves grow in the house?" “

Liu Mei said, ‘These bamboo leaves were obtained from the Forestry Bureau through Dr. Zhang at our hospital.’”

“What do you need bamboo leaves for?”

Xia Donghai exclaimed.

Liu Mei replied irrelevantly, “Did you appeal to the international community for $25 million to save us? Are you facing extinction within fifty years?”

“It’s over, it’s over,”

Xia Donghai said desperately to his two children, “She’s talking about wild gorillas now!”

“Oh my god! Mom’s gone mad!”

Xiaoyu cried out.

“Damn it, Mom, we can’t take this anymore!”

Liu Xing shouted.

But it wasn’t over yet.

A few days later, Liu Mei carried a heavy bag into Xiaoxue’s room. She closed the door, fiddled around inside for a long time, and then came out, drenched in sweat, and took out her key to lock the door.

Just before Liu Mei locked the door, the three Xia family members, along with Liu Xing, quietly slipped over to take a look and immediately exclaimed, “Ah! Wow!” "

It turns out, Liu Mei moved all the pictures, models, and books about gorillas into Xiaoxue's room!

'It's like all the gorillas from the Natural History Museum have been moved to our house!'

The three men were speechless.

Liu Mei, however, said thoughtfully, 'It seems like we're missing one thing—a pair, gorilla fossil specimens!'

'As far as I know, Mom's were all dug up by archaeologists,'

Liu Xing said helplessly.

'Then I think you should go to Zhoukoudian! Those fossils were all dug up there!'

Xia Donghai said helplessly.

Liu Mei immediately became excited and said, 'That's right! Xia Donghai, you reminded me! If the scientist who dug up the fossils back then was an old man with glasses like you, maybe his eyesight was failing and he left us one or two fossils. If I go digging tomorrow, maybe I can actually find one?' '

Ah?'" "

The three men gasped in surprise. Liu Xing looked at Liu Mei like she was an idiot. "Mom, you don't...you don't really want to go to Zhoukoudian to dig for fossils, do you? That's quite far! A taxi will cost tens of yuan! Plus, there's traffic in Beijing!"

"So what if it's far?"

Liu Mei said nonchalantly. "For my beloved daughter Xiaoxue, so she can accept me as soon as possible! I'd go to the Western Paradise! Besides, Zhoukoudian isn't even in Beijing! Those scientists can dig, so why can't I? Tomorrow's the weekend, let's go to Zhoukoudian in Fangshan to dig for orangutan fossils!"

Huh? The three men immediately ran away: "Don't look for me!" Liu

Xing was even more impressed; his mother's imagination was incredible! It was a pity she didn't become a screenwriter at CCTV.

The next day, Liu Mei went out to dig for fossils early in the morning, but she hadn't returned home by nightfall. Xia Donghai and the other two waited anxiously.

Had Liu Mei been kidnapped by a gorilla?

At home, Xiao Yu innocently asked Liu Xing, "Brother, are there really gorilla fossils in Zhoukoudian?"

"Yes, there are!"

Liu Xing said, "but those fossils are all in the national museum's important collection. If Mom could find them, then everyone in China could find fossils!"

"Yeah, your mom is really something! Why does she have to look for fossils? Zhoukoudian is so far away! She's just making trouble for no reason!"

Xia Donghai said helplessly.

"It's clear my mom has a lot of good intentions towards Xiao Xue; she's never treated me like this before!" "

Liu Xing said helplessly.

It was very late when Liu Mei finally returned. She was limping, carrying a heavy bag, her face covered in sweat.

"I had a really good day! Look at this—"

Liu Mei excitedly showed off a colored stone, "According to my preliminary research, it might be a fossilized tooth of an ancient ape from 500,000 years ago!"

What? Xia Donghai and Liu Xing were incredulous. Liu Xing said, "Mom, if you can find fossilized teeth of ancient apes, then the whole of Beijing will be a museum of ancient apes!"

"This is a fossilized tooth of an ancient ape!"

Liu Mei said decisively, "My hands are all raw from digging, and our shovel is ruined like this!"

She then showed everyone the broken shovel.

Everyone almost fainted: Good heavens, using the shovel from our kitchen to dig for fossilized teeth of ancient apes!

Because of Liu Mei's reckless actions, Liu Xing had to take on the role of cook for everyone for the past month. It must be said that Liu Xing is very intelligent and a great cook. The whole family enjoys the food, and Xiao Yu asks Liu Xing to cook delicious food for her every day. Liu Xing has no choice but to agree for the time being.

That evening, everyone was enjoying the feast Liu Xing had prepared when Liu Mei excitedly returned carrying a pile of twigs and leaves: "Hello everyone!"

"Meimei, come and try Liu Xing's braised pork ribs, they're especially delicious!"

Xia Donghai laughed.

"You all eat! I have a new task to do!"

Liu Mei smiled, waving the twigs and leaves in her hand.

"Mom, why did you bring back so many twigs and leaves?"

Liu Xing asked.

Liu Mei said seriously, "Don't you know that gorillas build nests with twigs, eight meters off the ground, and live independently in the trees during the day?"

Liu Mei was going to build a nest! Everyone was shocked. Xia Donghai stared in disbelief and said, "Meimei, are you crazy? What kind of nest are you building at home?"

Liu Xing exclaimed, "Oh my dear mother, please don't build a nest eight meters off the ground in the house with twigs!"

"Brother, where in our house are we eight meters high?"

Xiao Yu asked.

Liu Mei said, "That's right, I'm building a miniature nest!"

Just then, the phone rang. It turned out that Xiaoxue had called back.

"I'll answer it, I'll answer it! Xiaoxue and I have a lot in common!"

Liu Mei snatched the phone and launched into a long, enthusiastic explanation: "Xiaoxue, from what I understand, the best place to study chimpanzees is in the rainforests of Kalimantan or Sumatra… Chimpanzees are also forest animals of tropical Africa, usually living in groups of three to ten, almost like a family. Just like our family… What? We'll talk about it when you get back tomorrow? You're coming back tomorrow? You said your research has made a breakthrough?"

Liu Mei was overjoyed, like she'd won the lottery: "Great! Hello everyone? Hello everyone! Goodbye! Goodbye!"

Liu Xing and the others were secretly delighted; Xiaoxue was back the next day, and Liu Mei's chimpanzee obsession could finally come to an end!

The next day, Xiaoxue returned carrying a very large bag!

"Xiaoxue, what's that you're carrying?"

The whole family rushed over. Liu Mei asked doubtfully, "It's not a chimpanzee, is it?"

"Huh? No way?"

Xia Donghai and the other three exclaimed in unison.

"Why would I care so much if it's not a 'gorilla'?"

Xiaoxue retorted with a grin.

Liu Mei was astonished, carefully feeling the bag: "Did you give the gorilla sleeping pills? Why is it so still, not moving an inch?" "

This thing may not move, but when it moves, it can travel a hundred and eight thousand miles in the blink of an eye!"

Xiaoxue said proudly.

The whole family was shocked: What kind of gorilla runs so fast?

Xiaoxue said, "Do you want to see it?" "Wait, slow down!" Liu Mei was extremely nervous, hurriedly ordering, "Liu Xing, close the door quickly! Xiao Yi, go to the refrigerator and get some bamboo leaves! Xia Donghai, get a mat to put on the floor!" "What are you talking about?" Xiaoxue was completely confused by Liu Mei's actions, and opened the bag, pulling out a telescope! "This, isn't this a telescope?" Liu Xing was stunned, utterly bewildered. Liu Xing then realized that Xiaoxue had fallen in love with the stars again, and it seemed that his mother was going to study the stars this time. What a mess! “Yes,” Xiaoxue smiled sweetly, “I brought back precious stars for the whole family, so you can all observe the starry sky now.” Good heavens, Liu Mei and the other three finally understood. After all that fuss, it turned out Xiaoxue was now studying the little stars in the sky, not some four-legged “gorilla”! Everyone was stunned, speechless for a long time. “Oh, I also set up a…” Liu Mei suddenly remembered something and rushed to Xiaoxue’s room without saying a word: “Wait, wait, let me tidy up your room first!” “No need, I’ll go change my clothes first, and then take a shower!” Xiaoxue said, following Liu Mei into the room. The father and three sons were terrified and discussed amongst themselves. Xiaoyu said, “Aren’t those big rocks still on Sister’s bed?” Xia Donghai said, “Those tattered paintings and old books that Liu Mei brought back must smell musty!” Liu Xing said, “We’re doomed, just wait for Sister’s wrath.” Liu Mei was panicked, standing there blankly, not knowing what to do. Liu Xing immediately rushed into the house to see Xiaoxue. Inside, Xiaoxue stared in disbelief at the contents of the room. Liu Xing entered, looked at the astonished Xiaoxue, and suddenly placed his hand on her shoulder, saying softly, "Xiaoxue, all of this... all of this was prepared by your mother so you could better study gorillas... she even went to Zhoukoudian to find fossils for you, she..." "You don't need to say anymore!" Xiaoxue interrupted him, saying, "I know what to do!" With that, Xiaoxue turned and left. Hearing this, Liu Xing suddenly understood what was about to happen and was overjoyed. Outside, Liu Mei was extremely nervous, like a child who had done something wrong. She bowed her head and apologized to Xiao Xue who came out, "I'm sorry, I...I...you...you go take a shower first, Xiao Xue. Give me five minutes, I promise I'll tidy up your room back to its original state immediately!" Suddenly, Xiao Xue rushed towards Liu Mei, sobbing with emotion, "Mom, thank you! Mom, thank you! " The whole family was speechless, unable to believe their ears. Liu Xing, who came out, was both surprised and delighted, thinking to himself that he had indeed guessed correctly! "What? What did you just call me?" Liu Mei asked incredulously. Xiao Xue smiled slightly and repeated with deep emotion, "Mom!" Hey, Liu Mei's eyes immediately filled with tears! From then on, Xiao Xue finally integrated into this family and became a complete member of the family! ※※※ Chapter 019 Hu Yitong's Confession and Borrowing Money That day, Liu Xing was in Xiao Xue's room, helping Xiao Xue review her lessons. Since Xiaoxue called Liu Mei "Mom," the family has been harmonious, and everyone is living happily and peacefully. Liu Xing's novel, *Zhu Xian*, is selling extremely well online. Now, in the chapter on the Dripping Blood Cave, the number of clicks has exceeded 500,000, and Liu Xing's royalties have also risen accordingly. This month, he'll actually receive 15,000 yuan, and it's still trending upwards, which makes Liu Xing very happy. At this moment, Liu Xing is explaining a physics problem to Xiaoxue. "Look, think about this problem from a different angle, using Archimedes' principle..." Liu Xing points to the problem in the book and explains it fluently. Xiaoxue listens sweetly, and the two are very close. Just then, Xiaoxue accidentally knocks Liu Xing's pen eraser to the ground. "Sorry, I'll pick it up!" Xiaoxue apologizes as she bends down to pick up the eraser.

It was still summer, and Xiaoxue was only wearing a t-shirt. As she bent over, the shirt parted at the neckline, revealing the hollow part in the middle, along with the small nipples of her still-developing breasts. Liu Xing immediately felt a surge of heat and couldn't help but pull Xiaoxue into his arms.

Xiaoxue was startled when Liu Xing suddenly embraced her, her pretty face flushing red. She struggled slightly for a moment, then whispered, "Don't do this... Liu Xing, I'm your sister..."

"But not by blood, right?"

Liu Xing said softly, "And last time, weren't we very close?"

Thinking of what happened last time, Xiaoxue's face turned even redder. She gently pushed Liu Xing away, whispering, "But, I'm not your girlfriend..."

"What if I wanted you to be my girlfriend?"

Liu Xing suddenly looked at Xiaoxue with burning passion.

"What? I... you..."

Xiaoxue was stunned by these words, thinking, could this be considered a confession? Her heart pounded wildly.

But the next second, Xiaoxue pushed Liu Xing away forcefully and whispered, "We're still young, the important thing now is to study... Even if... even if you want me to be your girlfriend, you... you have to let me think about it first..."

"Okay, okay! Fine! I won't force you, we have plenty of time anyway, but Xiaoxue, I want to tell you, I really like you, and you will only ever be my woman!"

Liu Xing said with a grin.

Xiaoxue blushed and didn't say anything.

In the afternoon, Liu Xing's biological father, Hu Yitong, came.

To be honest, Liu Xing liked his biological father quite a bit. Although Hu Yitong wasn't very capable and wasn't handsome, he was sincere towards Liu Xing and absolutely considered him the most important person in his life, so Liu Xing naturally welcomed him very warmly.

"Son, are you getting used to it here?"

Hu Yitong asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm getting used to it, I'm doing very well here... Mom, you're here?"

Liu Xing said halfway through his sentence, but when he saw Liu Mei come out, he quickly greeted her.

Liu Mei waved to Liu Xing, and Liu Xing hurriedly went back into the house.

"What brings you here?" Liu Mei asked bluntly.

Hu Yitong was embarrassed again and stammered, "I'm a little short on cash right now... I'd like to borrow ten thousand yuan from you, I promise I'll pay you back as soon as possible." Sure enough, she

wouldn't come here without a reason.

"Now that I have this new home, you should find another way to solve your problems!" Liu Mei refused directly.

Hu Yitong blushed and said, "We were husband and wife before, I can't bring myself to ask anyone else for money, so I can only ask you..."

"Enough,"

Liu Mei immediately interrupted him, "This isn't your home, my husband and children are in their own room."

Hu Yitong became agitated and shouted, "I have the right to come here to see my ex-wife and son! What, is that illegal?!" He was being incredibly unreasonable! Liu Mei was furious.

"I'm not talking to you anymore, you can leave."

Liu Mei gave him an unceremonious order to leave.

Hu Yitong said stubbornly, "I'm not leaving!" "Fine, if you won't leave, I will." With

that, Liu Mei turned and went to the bedroom without looking back.

Hu Yitong was left all alone in the living room, his heart filled with a mix of emotions—both frustration and sadness.

Just then, Liu Xing came out and approached Hu Yitong with sympathy, saying, "Dad, are you alright...?"

Suddenly, Xia Donghai, the head of the Xia family, came out of the bedroom and said to Liu Xing, "Um... Liu Xing, go back to your room first, I need to talk to your dad for a bit!"

"Um... never mind, I... I'm leaving."

Upon seeing Xia Donghai, Hu Yitong immediately lowered his head, preparing to take his leave.

Xia Donghai was anxious and grabbed him: "You just got here, why are you leaving already?" "Because... she... left,"

Hu Yitong said regretfully.

Xia Donghai smiled wryly: "She's gone, but I'm still here! Besides, there's Liu Xing!" "

It's because you're here that I'm leaving!" Hu Yitong thought to himself, but naturally he wouldn't say it aloud, so he just sat down again.

Xia Donghai, noticing Hu Yitong's expression, cut to the chase: "No one comes here without a reason, you must be having some difficulties, right?" Hu Yitong was taken aback, thinking that they were indeed a couple, always so direct. He nodded hesitantly.

Liu Xing spoke for him: "My dad's having some cash flow problems and wants to borrow some money from you!"

"Liu Xing, shut up!"

Hu Yitong exclaimed, then added, "...Yes." Xia Donghai understood, took out a savings book from his pocket, and handed it to him: "The money in here should be enough for you."

Liu Xing was overjoyed, thinking that his father seemed quite generous, actually helping his wife's ex-husband like this; he deserved praise.

Hu Yitong froze, looking like he wanted to take it but hesitated.

Xia Donghai considerately said: "Everyone has times when they're short of money, take it."

Hu Yitong gritted his teeth, took the money, and solemnly promised, "Thank you, I'll pay you back as soon as possible!" "It's alright, we'll talk about it whenever we have the money," Xia

Donghai said generously.

After lending the money, Xia Donghai took a bottle, a glass, and some snacks from the table and raised his glass with Hu Yitong.

The two men drank and chatted, and before they knew it, they were both a little tipsy.

Suddenly, Hu Yitong said in a drunken haze, "Old Xia... you directed this play quite well."

"What do you mean?" Xia Donghai sobered up a bit.

Hu Yitong, still drunk, said directly, "It's not a big play, just a double act." "

A double act?" Xia Donghai was confused.

"Yes... one acts in front, and the other talks behind." "

What?" Xia Donghai didn't understand, but Liu Xing finally got it and quickly said, "Dad, Dad meant you two are playing good cop and bad cop... Hey, hey, why does that sound so awkward (because you have two dads)?"

Xia Donghai suddenly realized, and was extremely annoyed. He said sullenly, "Fine, then take the savings book back!" "See... I was right, wasn't I?" Hu Yitong said dejectedly. Liu Xing

frowned and said, "Dad, Dad didn't mean that... No, I mean my current dad doesn't mean that!"

"Alright, Liu Xing, stop talking!"

Xia Donghai sighed, an adult doesn't hold grudges, and patiently explained to him, "Old Hu, you're overthinking it. Meimei's words represent her, and my invitation to you for drinks represents me. There's absolutely no intention to make things up."

"Don't treat me like a fool..." Hu

Yitong remained unmoved, continuing his nonsense, "First you tell me to leave, then you offer a sweet treat, then you slap me and rub it in... You two ganged up on me like this, I really can't accept the money!" Hu Yitong grew increasingly angry, slamming the passbook on the table.

"That's called excessive self-defense,"

Xia Donghai sighed.

"That's called a double act to trick me." A double act to trick you? "You!" Xia Donghai was truly angry, his eyes wide with fury.

"What did I do?" Hu Yitong also glared angrily.

For a moment, the Xia family's living room was filled with the smell of gunpowder! "Hey! Fathers, gentlemen use words, not fists! Let's drink!"

Liu Xing advised. "Right! Gentlemen use words, not fists! Let's drink!"

Xia Donghai and Hu Yitong glared at each other, but at the same time kept drinking. The two became more and more aggressive, and more and more drunk.

Xia Donghai pointed out incisively while drinking: "Old Hu, your mentality stems from...inferiority complex."

Liu Xing said in a low voice: "That's right, it's inevitable to feel inferior when you see someone better than yourself!"

Hu Yitong suddenly seemed to have been stabbed by something, and angrily smashed his wine glass on the ground: "You're the one who's inferior! And Liu Xing, you brat, I'm your biological father, now you've got a stepfather and forgotten your biological father? You can't do this, a biological father can't be returned!"

"Hey, Liu Xing, go back to your room first, don't say anything! And Old Hu, why did you smash your wine glass?" Xia Donghai shouted, and Liu Xing wisely went back to his room.

"I smashed the wine bottle too!" Hu Yitong held up the wine bottle.

Xia Donghai panicked and quickly snatched the wine bottle, pressing him down to sit.

Hu Yitong stood up again, saying fiercely, "Even though you gave me a bankbook and wine, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated! I, Hu Yitong, will never accept food offered to me!" With that, he threw the bankbook at Xia Donghai's face.

It was like a dog biting Lü Dongbin, ungrateful for a kind heart! Xia Donghai was furious and almost rushed forward to fight him.

Suddenly, Liu Xing's shout came from outside: "Don't fight! Don't fight! If you fight, it will be a bad example for our child!"

Xia Donghai and Hu Yitong were startled and turned around to see Liu Xing had come out again, looking at them sternly.

Xia Donghai felt embarrassed in front of the child and instead put his raised hand on Hu Yitong's shoulder: "Come on, let's drink!" Hu Yitong was also embarrassed and had no choice but to accept the wine glass.

Liu Xing sighed, walked up to Hu Yitong, and asked, "Let me interview you. What were you thinking when you threw the bankbook?" "I...I..."

Hu Yitong lowered his head and rubbed his hands, very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xia Donghai came over to help him out: "Liu Xing, go, go find some interview material elsewhere! I need to talk to Lao Hu about something serious!"

Liu Xing smiled faintly and slowly left...

Hu Yitong seemed to understand. He felt a little guilty and lowered his head to Xia Donghai, saying, "I'm sorry, it seems I really judged you by my own standards."

Good that you understand! Xia Donghai was a little amused.

Just then, Liu Mei came out of the bedroom and was surprised to see Hu Yitong: "You haven't left yet?" "I...I...Your Lao Xia is really a good person, you've come to the right person."

Hu Yitong said incoherently.

Xia Liu Mei said irritably, "Alright, alright, you don't need to introduce him to what kind of person he is."

Suddenly, she saw the bankbook on the table and immediately understood everything.

"Meimei, this..."

Xia Donghai was extremely embarrassed, but he was speechless and didn't know how to explain.

Liu Mei, however, was very magnanimous. She sighed and said to Hu Yitong, "Since Xia Donghai gave you the passbook, I can't let him take it back. So, write an IOU."

Write an IOU? Hu Yitong was anxious: "You're taking advantage of me again..."

"Taking advantage of you in what way?" "Treat me like an outsider!" "You are an outsider to begin with!" Liu Mei said without backing down.

Hu Yitong had no choice but to pick up the paper and pen on the table and write the IOU.

Finally, Hu Yitong finished writing the IOU, talked with Liu Xing for a while, and then left.
