Ethan Chen doesn't usually curse at people, but he cursed several times in a row, which showed that he was really angry.
Compared to him, Liam Qin was much calmer. He was a little surprised at first and didn't know what to say. Later, he even smiled and said to his roommate on the phone: "Okay, I got it."
After hanging up the phone, Liam Qin did not change his pace. When he went to the supermarket downstairs, he even brought drinks for his roommate.
No wonder Ethan Chen said on the phone, "It stinks so badly." It really stinks. Liam Qin could already smell the pungent smell of stinky paint in the small supermarket outside before he even entered the dormitory area. After entering the yard, he turned on his flashlight and shone it towards the car. He didn't want to look at it more, but now he endured the smell and took a closer look, then raised his eyebrows.
"What's going on, Brother Fang?" A boy Liam Qin knew from the hospital looked down from the balcony upstairs and shouted to him.
Liam Qin put away his phone and looked up. There were quite a few people lying here watching. Liam Qin said loudly: "Sorry, brothers, it's quite stinking."
"Hey, what's the big deal!" someone said upstairs, "If you need help, just let me know!"
"Thanks, brother!" Liam Qin waved his arm towards the upstairs, then opened the car door, got in the car, and drove out. It was too stinky to park the car downstairs, so Liam Qin drove the car far away and found a deserted place to park it. When he came back, the place where he had parked the car had been covered by several sheets, and the corners were pressed by bricks. It was probably done by his roommate. This way, the smell was indeed much less, and the whole dormitory area was not filled with the stinky smell of paint.
When Liam Qin opened the door of the dormitory, Ethan Chen had just come out of the shower, and another roommate was sitting at the table memorizing words. Liam Qin threw the drinks to them and asked: "What are you two pressing on the sheets?"
"Ah," Ethan Chen asked him, "how do we get the car?"
"It's okay," Liam Qin took off his coat and put it on the chair, then took a towel and went to take a shower, "I won't say thank you, they are my family."
"Thanks, damn," another roommate, Lucas Shen, replied, "Buy me two new sheets later."
"No problem," Liam Qin patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Buy eight or ten pairs for us Deng Ke'er."
Ethan Chen sneered: "You want to use it to hang yourself?"
"Why do you care about me?" Lucas Shen said, turning around.
"I'm afraid you'll go crazy and hang yourself," said Ethan Chen.
Liam Qin didn't listen to their nonsense anymore. He couldn't stand the smell and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Water poured down from the top of his head. Liam Qin shook his head and wiped his face. After a night of hard work, he was actually a little tired and irritable. He didn't feel bad about the car. It wasn't a luxury car. His father gave it to him on his 18th birthday the year before last. He had been driving the SUV worth hundreds of thousands for almost two years. He usually used it to go out of school or go home. He wasn't ostentatious. There were several cars parked downstairs that were better than his.
I used the light of my mobile phone to take a look at it before, but it wasn't very clear. But when I drove out and looked under the street light, I could see it clearly.
---Good color, emerald green paint.
The bucket of green paint was not wasted at all, it was all poured on the car. This color is somewhat sensitive, if you just want to make him unhappy, a bucket of white paint is enough, and if you want it to be more eye-catching, you can use a bucket of red. It is indeed a bit deliberate to go to great lengths to choose a bucket of green.
Liam Qin had no idea where this bucket of paint came from. He had been very quiet during this period and had never had any conflicts with anyone. He attended classes honestly every day and played around with Nolan Hua and the others when he had no classes. He was like a good young man, or perhaps he was actually a good young man.
The two roommates were so angry that Liam Qin's bedtime activity that night was to listen to the two roommates swearing. But he himself was not angry, at most he was a little confused. Now he didn't even know who threw the water and why. He had no reason to be angry. If he was angry now, he would look a little stupid.
The next morning, Liam Qin skipped two classes and called Nolan Hua and a few of his good friends to come over and clean the floor.
The green paint can't just be spread on the ground, it's too ugly. The smooth cement floor in the yard has a green patch, like a pockmark. If he doesn't clean it himself, then the uncles who do the cleaning will do it, so don't cause trouble for others. Liam Qin, wearing a black T-shirt and sweatpants, stacked four basins and a pile of cleaning balls, rags and other things, squatted there and scrubbed very seriously.
"Brother Fang, what's going on?" The boy who had just arrived was a little confused and didn't understand what the formation was.
"Help me with some work," Liam Qin squatted there, looked up at him, and threw him a cleaning ball, "I've been cheated on."
"Ah?" The boy was even more confused, "...cuckolded?"
"Yeah, a green face." Liam Qin said with a laugh.
Several friends nearby also laughed. Nolan Hua squatted next to Liam Qin, touched his arm, and asked him in a low voice: "It's just a joke, but where does this 'green' come from? Have you ever thought about it?"
Liam Qin's legs felt numb after squatting for so long, so he shifted his weight to another leg and said, "I haven't figured anything out."
Nolan Hua looked at him and asked directly: "Have you asked Sophia Gong?"
Liam Qin said nothing and shook his head.
Liam Qin didn't want to associate the girl with such a thing. When he first started pursuing her, Sophia Gong said she was single. And he couldn't ask her this question. It didn't matter if it was related or not. It was awkward to ask her, as if he didn't trust her. But it was no wonder that Nolan Hua mentioned Sophia Gong. Liam Qin's last girlfriend was a year ago, and they broke up not long after school started. Liam Qin has been single ever since. Although Liam Qin and Sophia Gong haven't gotten together yet, she is the only one who can make Liam Qin and Lu have something in common.
Liam Qin said: "Maybe it's just the color you touched with your eyes closed, don't think too much about it."
"Well, wait," Nolan Hua sighed, stood up, stamped his legs, and squatted again, "We have to know who it is first."
Liam Qin was not worried at all about this. If the other party disliked him or intended to make things difficult for him, he would not just let it go. There would definitely be more to come.
Liam Qin later took the car to the 4S shop to have them clean it, and also repainted the scratches. After returning from the 4S shop, Liam Qin went directly to the classroom. He had a Mao Zedong Thought class that afternoon. There were more than 100 people in the tiered classroom. Liam Qin found a seat at the edge and planned to sleep for two hours.
When he was half asleep and half awake, his cell phone kept vibrating in his pocket. Liam Qin frowned and took it out to see that it was Nolan Hua.
The chat interface was filled with surveillance footage that Nolan Hua had continuously sent over, with the bottom line reading: Case solved, Zhou Siming, a junior at the School of Chemistry.
Liam Qin clicked on the video. The man in the video was not afraid of being filmed by the surveillance camera at all. He picked up a bucket of paint and poured it directly on Liam Qin's car. He was not wearing a mask or a hat. He was probably not afraid that Liam Qin would look for him.
Liam Qin replied to Nolan Hua: Awesome.
Liam Qin didn't know this person, he had never met him before. The only two guys from the student union he had contact with from the School of Chemistry were honest science majors, and other than that, he had never met anyone from the School of Chemistry.
Even who it was knew, the school was so small, they could figure out who it was in an instant. Nolan Hua had the contact information of this person in his hand, but Liam Qin didn't go to find him directly. He was in his twenties and shouldn't be so stupid. Liam Qin went to class as he should and went home on weekends as he should. It didn't affect him at all.
He hadn't been home for almost a month, and Aiden Jian was almost upset at home. Liam Qin couldn't get through the gate when he took a taxi, and the new security guard at the post didn't recognize him and asked Liam Qin where he was going. Liam Qin told the door number, and the security guard thought he was visiting and asked him to talk to the owner.
Liam Qin didn't want to explain too much, nor did he bother to say that he was Jian Mingtao's son, and he didn't want to make this call, which was too ridiculous. So Liam Qin got out of the car and walked in by himself.
It was a long walk from the gate to the small building of the Jian family. Liam Qin walked for a long time before he was halfway there. A car came from behind, but Liam Qin did not look back and stepped aside.
"Brother!" The car slowly stopped beside him, and Aiden Jian's voice came over with surprise.
Liam Qin turned his head and looked over. It was the driver who had just come back from picking up Aiden Jian from school. Liam Qin smiled: "Hey, the young master is back?"
"Brother, get in!" Aiden Jian pushed open the car door, Liam Qin took off his schoolbag and got in. The driver greeted him and Liam Qin responded.
"Brother, why are you walking back?" Aiden Jian asked him, "Where's your car?"
"No," Liam Qin took out the chocolate for Aiden Jian from his schoolbag and threw it on his lap, "Miss me?"
"Yes!" Aiden Jian moved closer to him and hugged his arm. "I have to remind you all the time, otherwise I'm afraid you'll forget that you have a brother."
"I can't forget you," Liam Qin reached out and pressed Aiden Jian's head, ruffling his hair. "You call me four or five times a week to summon me. How much effort do I have to put into forgetting you?"
Aiden Jian is ten years old this year, a handsome boy, naughty but also very likable. Although Liam Qin doesn't like Aiden Jian's mother, he has never really hated Aiden Jian since he was born. Blood relationship is a strange thing. Even if you have hostility and prejudice against him before he was born, he can still soften your heart from the first sight you see him.
This tenderness is the only thing Liam Qin cares about the Jian family now. Others can't be said to be resentful or hateful. If it's really the root, it should be indifferent. If it weren't for Aiden Jian, Liam Qin might not come back once a semester. If there is nothing to worry about, there is no need to come back.
"Yangyang is back?" As they opened the door and came in, Dong Yin came out of the kitchen and said, "I made fruit tea for you. Didn't you say you wanted something sweet this morning?"
After she finished speaking, she saw Liam Qin, paused, and then said with a smile: "Xiao Fang is back too? I was talking to your dad about you yesterday. You haven't been back for a long time."
Liam Qin smiled faintly at her.
Dong Yin is 36 years old this year. She looks very young. She looks beautiful even without makeup at home. She is very elegant. Her hair is tied into a bun at the back of her neck and she is wearing a long cotton dress. Liam Qin's eyes stopped for two seconds when he swept over her. Dong Yin followed his line of sight and raised her hand to touch her slightly bulging belly.
Liam Qin raised his eyes to look at her face. Dong Yin smiled at him gently and said softly: "Come home more often in the future. There will be a brother of yours at home, or maybe... or a sister. I hope it will be a sister."
"I also hope it's a sister." Aiden Jian was still holding Liam Qin's two fingers, and he didn't let go until now. He raised his head to look at Liam Qin, shook his hand, and asked him with a little caution, "Brother, what do you hope for?"
Liam Qin looked down at Aiden Jian, seeing a pair of clean big eyes on his fair face. Liam Qin pulled the corners of his lips slightly and said, "...All good."
