Su Xiaolin was perfunctory, said a few words and then hung up the phone.

Hu Pingtao said: "You are a typical shameless classmate. In fact, for this reason, anyone can tell on the phone that your attitude has changed and you don't welcome her. But she still keeps forcing you.

Agree to live at home."

Su Xiaolin was a little worried: "What should we do now?"

Hu Pingtao comforted his wife: "Don't worry about this matter. In this way, you can go back to your parents' home after get off work tomorrow and live there for a few days. Tomorrow I will switch shifts with Tan Tao, and I will take his place on the weekend. Tomorrow I will stay at home. Say hello to your old classmate."

…

The next day.

At around one o'clock at noon, Hu Pingtao was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book when he heard the doorbell ring outside.

I walked over and opened the door, and saw a middle-aged woman in her thirties standing outside the door, with a large trolley suitcase next to her.

Seeing Hu Pingtao, she was a little surprised and asked tentatively: "Excuse me, does Su Xiaolin live here?"

Hu Pingtao nodded indifferently: "She has gone to work. What do you want to see her for?"

A smile appeared on the visitor's face: "Hello, my name is Zhu Junyuan, and I am Linlin's friend. I came to the provincial capital on a business trip, and I made an agreement with her to come and stay at home for a few days. Haha... we were classmates when we were in college.

, the relationship is very good. Well... you are Linlin's husband, right?"

Hu Pingtao said "hmm" and stood there, maintaining a fixed posture, with no intention of getting out of the way. He frowned and said impatiently: "Aren't you staying in a hotel on a business trip? Why are you staying at my house?"

Zhu Junyuan was a little undecided. After all, Hu Pingtao was a man and it seemed hard to talk. She opened her mouth and organized her words: "I called Linlin and she told me to come and stay. Haha... you guys

I happened to be away on business when we got married, and it looks like you guys are doing very well! It costs several million to buy such a big house, right?"

Hu Pingtao's attitude was still cold: "This is my house."

Zhu Junyuan smelled something bad: "Aren't you... married?"

Hu Pingtao's answer was still mechanical, but the logic was very clear: "This is my house. I bought it with money. My name is written on the house book. Besides... I don't know you."

Zhu Junyuan's expression changed suddenly, and she frowned: "Why are you like this! I clearly agreed with Linlin on the phone that we would stay for a few days. If we hadn't had a good relationship, I would have..."

Hu Pingtao interrupted her unceremoniously: "I told you, I don't know you. Linlin didn't tell me about this when she was on a business trip this morning."

"What, she went on a business trip?" Zhu Junyuan was shocked: "When did it happen? Where did she go on a business trip?"

"She has a temporary assignment in her unit and is accompanying provincial leaders on inspection trips." Hu Pingtao said calmly: "The specific location is a work secret and cannot be disclosed to the outside world."

"Wait a minute, I'll call Linlin." Zhu Junyuan panicked and quickly took out her mobile phone and clicked on Su Xiaolin's number. However, a sweet and cold electronic echo came from the receiver.

"Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off, please call again later."

Zhu Junyuan's frown deepened: "Why is her phone turned off?"

Seeing this, Hu Pingtao raised his hand to close the door.

"Hey, wait, wait a minute." Zhu Junyuan was shocked and quickly stretched out a foot to block the door frame: "I am really Linlin's classmate. I didn't lie to you."

As she said that, she quickly clicked on the WeChat page on her phone: "Look, I have Linlin's WeChat account, and we are still in the same group."

Hu Pingtao yawned: "So what?"

Zhu Junyuan emphasized again and again: "I am here on a business trip, and I have agreed with Linlin to stay at her house for the next few days. Can you...can you let me in first?"

Hu Pingtao opened his eyes wide and looked at her in disbelief: "I told you that my wife is not at home and I am the only man in the house. What do you mean?"

Zhu Junyuan's face turned ugly: "I just got off the plane and couldn't find a place to stay."

Hu Pingtao responded without thinking: "There are places to live everywhere! Just search on your mobile phone and you will find all kinds of hotels you want to stay in. Expensive ones cost several thousand a night, while cheap Home Inns only cost a few dollars."

Ten dollars. Since you are out on business, it’s impossible that you don’t even have this little money, right?”

Zhu Junyuan's face was extremely ugly. She kept saying the same thing over and over again: "I...I made an appointment with Linlin to live at home."

Hu Pingtao refused calmly: "My wife never told me about this. You'd better go!"

After saying that, he closed the door forcefully.

…

Through the peephole, he saw Zhu Junyuan standing outside the door, with an angry expression on her face.

She kept calling, but she couldn't get through.

The couple discussed it last night: Su Xiaolin will go back to her parents' home in the evening and live there. She got up early to go to work this morning, changed her mobile phone and used the work short number in her workplace. She turned off her commonly used mobile phone and took it with her.

Hu Pingtao was wearing cushioned slippers in the room, and he walked without making a sound. He returned to the living room, sat down on his hair, dialed Su Xiaolin's short number, covered his mouth, and lowered his voice: "That classmate of yours can do it! It took almost half an hour.

Even now, he is still standing outside our house and has not left."

Su Xiaolin was a little worried on the other end of the phone: "Am I going too far?"

Hu Pingtao said without thinking: "That's okay! You turn on the phone, or you come to entertain her and welcome her in. She will sleep in your bedroom at night."

These words instantly strengthened Su Xiaolin's belief: "What are you talking about! That belongs to both of us. I am... Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore. Is it okay if I am wrong?"

Hu Pingtao smiled and said: "Anyway, as agreed yesterday, you can turn on the phone after ten o'clock in the evening. If she calls you, tell her that you are on a business trip. If she asks about where she lives at home, you will tell her everything.

Push it on me."

Su Xiaolin said "Oh" on the phone and asked: "Aren't you going to work tomorrow?"

"I have said that Tan Tao and I will switch shifts." Hu Pingtao explained: "We always switch shifts once every two days, which is exactly one weekend."

Su Xiaolin suddenly became angry when she heard this: "Zhu Junyuan... Why do you have to come to me if you are doing a good job? You have to go back to work next weekend, and no one will go shopping with me."

Hu Pingtao said seriously: "So I will teach you a lesson this time. Remember it well. Don't agree to others casually, and don't bring everyone home."

…

The next day, a quarter past twelve noon.

There was another knock on the door. Hu Pingtao walked over and opened the door. It was Zhu Junyuan standing outside.

She changed her outfit, but still carried the trolley suitcase in her hand.

In the night that just passed yesterday, Zhu Junyuan finally got through Su Xiaolin's phone call. She looked at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock and almost eleven o'clock. Although she was very angry, she kept her tone as gentle as possible and asked Su Xiaolin what was going on.

Son? Why is the phone turned off and no one can be found?

Su Xiaolin's answer was the same as Hu Pingtao's: The business trip was arranged by the temporary unit, but I couldn't say where exactly.

This was not the answer Zhu Junyuan wanted. She asked directly: "Can I stay at your house tomorrow?"

"I'm not at home!" Su Xiaolin replied.

"But there are people in your family!" Zhu Junyuan did not feel that she was thick-skinned. Instead, she thought this kind of thing was normal: "Just tell your family and I will live there. I am a very easy-going person and I don't pick places."

Su Xiaolin never dreamed that she would say this. She couldn't find the words for a moment, so she said vaguely: "I'm outside and it's not convenient to call. If you have anything, just tell my family! Hang up!"

As soon as she hung up, she turned off her phone.

He covered his chest with his hands and took several deep breaths.

When she first encountered such a person, she really had no choice but to pin her hopes on Hu Pingtao.

At this moment, Zhu Junyuan controlled her emotions and said seriously to Hu Pingtao: "I called Linlin last night, and she promised to let me live here."

Zhu Junyuan was simply mad.

Yesterday I found a chain hotel with a special room price of 86 yuan.

This had never happened before in her business trip career.

Others go on business trips for business, but she can earn a fortune while doing business. Sometimes it can be a few thousand yuan, and sometimes it can be over ten thousand yuan, which is all reimbursed from the accommodation fee.

Zhu Junyuan doesn't think there's anything wrong with this. Anyway, the rules and regulations of the unit are there. As long as there is an invoice, reimbursement can be made within a reasonable number of days. Anyway, no one will follow me when I go to other places. Where I live is my business. I would rather live there.

Under the bridge, there are many people who want to save money by eating pickles and dry steamed buns. I'm just staying at a classmate's house.

When I came to Dian Province this time, I felt really useless.

I had made an appointment with Amelia Su to stay at her house before. When I arrived at the place, I saw that it was a villa-style mansion. I thought I could relax and play comfortably in the past few days, but I didn't expect that Amelia Su had a temporary mission to go out... The hostess

When she was not at home, she would ask her husband to stay. This kind of thing had happened to Zhu Junyuan before.

She has done it before. Although it seems a bit shameless to outsiders, she thinks it's nothing. It's just a bed and a place to stay. Besides, if Su Xiaolin's man really has some thoughts about her and touches her in the middle of the night...

It depends on your mood when you should refuse or accept.

But Zhu Junyuan never imagined that she would not be able to get through the door just after getting off the plane. This man named Hu Pingtao was very determined - my wife is not at home, and you are not allowed to come in.

After finally getting through Amelia Su's phone last night, after finishing her business early this morning, Zhu Junyuan hurriedly checked out of the room and rushed over with her luggage.

Looking at Zhu Junyuan who was full of expectation and even a bit arrogant, Hu Pingtao frowned and looked her up and down carefully.

I have seen people who are greedy for money, but I have never seen someone so greedy and shameless.

As long as there is a little bit of self-awareness, after being rejected for the first time, you will have some awareness in your heart.

But this person in front of me...

Thinking of this, Hu Pingtao didn't bother to talk much. Instead of using Mandarin like yesterday, he directly used the local dialect of Yunnan Province: "Anyway, my wife told me about this matter. You can overcome whatever points you need to overcome."

point."

Zhu Junyuan was dumbfounded when she heard it. Although the local dialect sounded strange to her, she could understand the basic meaning.
