Chapter 62 Tacit understanding

My father and Mr. Geng became even more nervous, especially his father. Chen Yu saw that his legs were trembling.

After so many years, she actually didn't have many opportunities to communicate with her father.

In Shen Yu's eyes, his father is a workaholic who is completely different from his mother.

My mother always looked very excited. When she was a business manager in the factory, she was decisive and acted decisively. When she encountered any problems, she always screamed and rushed up directly.

My father rarely talks. He doesn't drink or smoke, and his work and rest are very regular. The factory goes to work at 8 o'clock every day, but the canteen opens at 5 o'clock. Most of the earliest group of people are employees who get off night shifts.

My father always gets up at half past four, washes, and goes out with his bag.

"Old Shen is really amazing. Every morning I can always see him through the glass. He walked over slowly. It was exactly five o'clock when he reached the entrance of the canteen!" The master of the canteen once exclaimed to someone.

When he goes home, he arrives there every day a quarter of an hour before the canteen’s midnight snack, then wipes his mouth after dinner, and when he walks out of the canteen, it’s time to close the door.

He always goes to work so meticulously and goes home because he gets up early and comes back late. Chen Yu doesn't have much time to see him.

Even on weekends, he continued to go to the laboratory most of the time, or locked himself in the study, either reading books or writing and calculating.

He is taciturn and focused, and seems to be the most suitable job for him.

But what's equally bad is that when he was working hard, he inadvertently ignored his family.

A mother who is whispering but absent-minded, a father who is focused on research but is silent and insensitive, and an aunt who is insensitive and has communication disorders. This is all Chen Yu faced in childhood.

But, at that moment, she saw the other side of her father.

He was afraid, and although he could still control his fear, he was already scared.

What is he afraid of? Is he afraid of his daughter being hurt?

Is this smiling young man in front of me really very dangerous?

Chen Yu looked at his father and then at Uncle Geng. It was different from his father who could even pretend to be calm. Uncle Geng was already a little panicked.

"Girl, don't be afraid..." His voice trembled.

The young man turned around and glanced at Mr. Geng, who reluctantly closed his mouth.

"Uncle - Will you really give me a little raccoon?" Chen Yu asked him.

"Absolutely - this game is that as long as you say something you see after entering, I will buy you a pack of crisp noodles."

"I... actually don't like eating crisp noodles. I just want to collect the Water Margin Cards inside." Chen Yu said stutteringly.

"No problem, you can throw it away if you don't eat it, and you can leave the Water Margin Card." said the man.

"Really?" Chen Yu asked excitedly, "Then I think about it!"

The whole room suddenly became quiet, and she felt everyone holding their breath for different reasons.

"I saw machines, many machines like in the factory." Chen Yu said.

"What else? Which machine is the most impressive to you? Let's talk about it in detail, a machine, a bag of raccoons." The man continued to induce.

"It's just a lot of machines, something like iron lumps." Chen Yu pouted unhappily, "Uncle, the machines look the same. Can't I remember which machine looks like that and I won't buy it for me?"

"Give it! What else?"

"There is also a door - the door is also a thing? There are also mountains, there are stones and trees on the mountain, and there is a big cage for raising pigeons at the bottom of the mountain. I was sleepy, so I climbed in and took a nap. Uncle, these are all kinds of things, oh by the way, there are many trees on the mountain. Is it a tree a thing?"

"Forget it!" Chen Yu saw the man standing up impatiently, and he interrupted her roughly.

"Uncle, no, I still remember that there are clouds in the sky! There are telephone poles on the ground! These are all things! There are so many small raccoons!"

The man hurriedly took out fifty dollars from his pocket and stuffed them to Mr. Geng.

"Old Geng, you go buy the crisp noodles for me, don't call this kid! - Xiao Wang, let's go! Lao Shen, you should go to work too!"

"Uncle, don't leave, I still remember things! There's still something!" Chen Yu shouted after him, but the man had already trotted away from the house, and he slammed the door.

Uncle Geng looked at his father, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Those two lunatics are really strange - children are children, what can children remember?" Mr. Geng said with a smile, "But Old Shen, what are you doing in 'No. 1'? Why are you suddenly talking about it and so cautious?"

"Old Geng, this matter is kept secret and cannot be said. But don't worry, it's not something that hurts the world or does something wrong." The father explained a few words rarely. He stretched out his hand, patted Chen Yu's head, and smiled meaningfully at her.

"You go home and stop running around."

"Yeah." Chen Yu nodded and said. From his eyes, he could see that his father had actually guessed her plan, but he did not say it out.

She actually didn't eat crisp noodles at all and was not interested in Water Margin Card. She just accidentally heard many classmates discussing the little raccoon and Water Margin Card.

She had actually seen through the man's tricks. If she really told what she saw and heard, she might bring disaster to herself, her father and Mr. Geng.

So, she chose to pretend to be a confused but "poverty" child, and played hard to get, which made the man completely relieved. The man really gave up asking, but all this was seen through by his father.

"Okay, girl movies, I'll take you to the store outside to buy raccoons, and buy you snowman popsicles!" Mr. Geng seemed to be relieved, and he happily pulled Chen Yu out.

Chen Yu originally wanted to tell the truth to Mr. Geng directly, but he actually didn't like the noodles and didn't collect the Water Margin Card. However, his father, who was walking outside, turned around and he reminded him.

"You have to do things with a beginning and an end. Since you collect that card, you must collect the full set. Do you remember?"

"Remember." Chen Yu continued to nod and said yes.

The collection of cards requires a full set, and the acting must also be a full set - this should be what my father wants to tell her.

Uncle Geng took her out of the factory and bought dozens of bags of raccoons from the small commodity next to her. Chen Yu pretended to be happy and carried a plastic bag. When she returned to the factory, she pretended to be happy to take apart the bags one by one and picked up the Water Margin character card inside. Whenever she found a new character, she would cheer in surprise.

When the canteen was having dinner that night, Mr. Geng made the staple food of instant noodles made with tomatoes...

Two young men watched Chen Yu sit aside, rubbing the cards with love.

"Silly girl." said the timid young man.

"Uncle, uncle, can we continue to play games?" Chen Yu ran over, "Look, many cards have been repeated! Chai Rong has five pictures, Dai Zong has three pictures, and Deng Fei, Zhu Wu, and Lu Fang are all two pictures..."

"Go and go! Go and find your dad!" The two men held the noodles and frowned and dodged.

The father glanced at Chen Yu and pretended to sigh helplessly. But at this moment, the two of them accidentally met, and a fleeting smile flashed across the faces of the father and daughter.

Chen Yu felt very happy because this was the first time in her life that she felt that she had a close relationship with her father.

But she did not expect that this would be the last time the father and daughter felt each other's tacit understanding.
