When the abusive male protagonist wakes up

Chapter 62

Early the next morning, Tao An went to the convenience store to report.

There is no clear division of labor in this store, all groceries have to be done, and work is done in shifts. The old couple saw that it was not convenient for him to take care of the child, so they arranged for him four days of morning shift and three days of evening shift. The lounge is available.

Tao An was working in a convenience store for the first time, and he knew nothing. Fortunately, the old employees in the store were willing to guide him, teaching him how to organize the shelves, set prices, and how to use the cash register.

Tao An has a smart mind and is a quick learner, and he can get started in half a day.

During the lunch break, Tao An took the child to the rest room, took out the milk powder he carried with him, and made some milk for the child to drink.

The crying child calmed down as soon as he drank the milk, clutching the bottle and sucking hard.

After the child fell asleep, Tao An covered him with a small quilt, placed him on the bed in the rest room, and went out to continue working.

In the next few days, Tao An gradually became proficient.

The child was also used to this strange environment. When he followed Tao An outside to check the cash, he behaved well all day long, neither crying nor making trouble, but just staring at the customers who came to the store with big round eyes.

Some customers secretly took out their mobile phones to take pictures when they saw that their children were cute.

No wonder they make a fuss, the child is so beautiful, with fair skin, small and exquisite facial features, thick and curly eyelashes, like a doll, and the parents look heaven-defying.

Maybe it’s because it’s too special for single fathers to take their children to work. After these photos were sent to Moments by customers, Tao An unexpectedly became popular. Within a few days, the business of the convenience store has improved compared to before, and most of them are aimed at Tao An. Came with kids.

Tao An was nervous at first, but seeing these people had no malicious intentions, and he would buy things every time he came, and it was not easy to drive away, so he gradually got used to it.

Tao An was on the morning shift that day, so he got off work in the evening. He carried the child to a nearby vegetable market to buy some vegetables, and walked home with a plastic bag.

Climbing up the long stairs, Tao An was sweating all over. He raised his arm and wiped his face with his sleeve. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of someone standing at the door of his house.

The figure looked a little familiar, and Tao An didn't remember who it was for a while, thinking it was the landlord, because it happened that it was almost time to pay the rent these days.

Tao An was about to speak, when he took a closer look, a familiar face came into view.

Tao An froze, looking at the person in front of him in surprise, "You, why are you here?"

The moment Gu Xiao saw Tao An, he almost couldn't help rushing up to hug him, but he restrained him abruptly, he clenched his fists, and his tone was full of disappointment, "Sister-in-law, how could you just run away like that? ?”

Tao An lowered his head guiltily, not knowing how to respond to Gu Xiao's reproachful gaze.

Gu Xiao's gaze shifted from Tao An's face to the child. The child was looking at him with a pair of big round eyes. It looked like Tao An at first glance, but actually looked more like his brother.

Gu Xiao couldn't help teasing the child with his fingers, and the child was not afraid of him, his pair of big dark eyes resembled Tao An very much.

Tao An couldn't help asking, "How do you know I'm here?"

He didn't use his ID card to get in the car, so it stands to reason that Gu Xiao shouldn't be able to find his own.

Gu Xiao told the truth: "I went to the place where I took a black car and asked them one by one."

Gu Xiao was the same as Gu Haoxing at the beginning, sending people to check the travel records of various places in the area, but there was no news of Tao An.

In Gu Xiao's daily life, the behavior of those pig friends is more outrageous than the other, and there are all kinds of crooked ways, so from the time he couldn't find Tao An's news records, he guessed that Tao An must be using other people. The channel left the local.

But Gu Xiao is smarter than his brother. He guessed that Tao An was in poor health and had to take a child with him, so he would definitely not take a taxi so far away, so he searched around the hospital, and soon found a taxi Black car land.

Gu Xiao used a stupid method, taking Tao An's photos and information to ask one by one, and the hard work paid off, and he finally found the driver who drove Tao An back then.

Because Tao An looked sick at the time, with a child in his arms, the driver had a deep impression on him. When Gu Xiao showed him the photo, he immediately recognized Tao An.

Gu Xiao gave some money and asked the driver to take him to the place where Tao An got off the bus, but Tao An was too scheming, thinking that he would be fine if he left the local area, so he chose a busy street to get off, and there happened to be a camera nearby .

Gu Xiao went to the local area to find some relationship monitors, and it took several days to find Tao An's residence.

Tao An didn't expect that Gu Xiao would find this place. He unconsciously hugged the child tightly in his arms, with complicated emotions, "You shouldn't have come."

Gu Xiao stared at him closely, eyes mixed with annoyance and distress, "You just leave like this, I don't trust you."

Tao An knew that Gu Xiao cared about him, but he didn't know how to respond to Gu Xiao's feelings, so he chose to leave without saying goodbye.

He really didn't want to have anything to do with the Gu family anymore.

Gu Xiao looked at Tao An's drooping eyelashes. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to tell Tao An the truth, "My brother is back."

As soon as "Gu Haoxing" was mentioned, Tao An's body tensed up immediately, his heart seemed to be pinched by a pair of big hands, the pain was so painful that he didn't know what to do.

After such a long time, Tao An still feels heartache every time he thinks of Gu Haoxing.

After all, after being together for so long, it is impossible to have no feelings at all, but now when Tao An thinks of Gu Haoxing, he only has deep disgust.

Gu Xiao said hesitantly: "My brother called me and asked me if I knew where you were."

Tao An suddenly raised his head, his eyes darkened.

Sure enough, Gu Haoxing was still unwilling to let him and the child go.

Seeing Tao An's pale face, Gu Xiao knew what he was thinking, and continued, "I haven't found you at that time, so my brother didn't get any information."

Tao An nodded, suddenly remembered something, and his heart tightened suddenly.

If Gu Xiao can find him, does it mean that Gu Haoxing also...

Gu Xiao saw through Tao An's thoughts, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, I've already given that black car driver a large sum of money, and he will never leak anything."

Tao An's heart fell to the ground. Looking at Gu Xiao in front of him, he was both guilty and grateful for this person, and said thank you in a low voice.

"You, you go back." Tao An knew why Gu Xiao came to him today, and smiled wryly, "My child and I are having a good time here, so you don't have to worry about me."

Gu Xiao had a serious expression, "Sister-in-law, come with me, I will take care of the child in the future."

Tao An shook his head, he doesn't want to trust anyone anymore, especially since Gu Xiao's purpose of approaching him was not pure, Tao An didn't know if Gu Xiao really liked him, or for revenge on Gu Haoxing, or just because He was so pitiful that he wanted to take care of him.

Maybe Gu Xiao gets tired of playing later, and will abandon him and the child like Gu Haoxing did.

Tao An didn't have the courage to put his and his child's life in another hand.

Perhaps because he saw that Tao An was still on guard against him, Gu Xiao's eyes became complicated and disappointed, "Sister-in-law, can you not trust me?"

Tao An didn't dare to face Gu Xiao's sincere eyes, he was worried that he would be shaken, so he could only lower his head and stare at the yellowed shoes under his feet, and said in a low voice, "I live a good life here, you can go."

Gu Xiao looked back at the crumbling building behind him, his expression could be described as ugly, "How can I rest assured that you live in such a place with your child?"

Gu Xiao didn't even need to enter Tao An's place to guess how bad the environment he was in was.

Tao An struggled to squeeze out a smile, "It's pretty good here, and I've found a job, so I can support myself and my baby in the future."

The stronger he was, the more Gu Xiao felt sorry for him, and the more he wanted to take him and the child home and take good care of them.

How can a person who has not even sat on his confinement and brought a newborn child live in this kind of society where the weak can eat the strong? He can't turn a blind eye just thinking about it.

Gu Xiao said very seriously: "Sister-in-law, if you don't believe me, I can transfer the house under my name to you, and hand over all my assets to you. If I really feel sorry for you in the future, you can take Live a good life with money and children."

Tao An was frightened by these remarks, and quickly waved his hands, "You don't have to do this, I'm not greedy for you."

"I know, I just want you to feel at ease." Gu Xiao's eyes seemed to look into Tao An's heart, making him feel at a loss and flustered, "I want you to believe me."

Tao An was moved for a while, but he still couldn't respond to Gu Xiao, even if he really wanted to look for him, he wouldn't look for Gu Xiao.

Seeing that Tao An lowered his head to his chest and didn't respond for a long time, Gu Xiao knew his answer, and he couldn't help but asked in frustration, "Little sister-in-law, are you really not going with me?"

Tao An bit his lip, and emphasized again earnestly and firmly, "This place is very good, I don't want to leave."

Although Gu Xiao was very disappointed, he could only respect Tao An's thoughts.

Seeing that it was getting late, Tao An urged Gu Xiao to go back. In fact, he should have invited Gu Xiao to sit at home, but the room was too small, so he gave up the idea.

Although Gu Xiao is unwilling to leave, his company still has something to do, so he can't stay for long, because he stayed with Tao An in the hospital for so long and never went to the hospital, which has caused a lot of complaints from the board of directors. face.

Gu Xiao said regretfully: "Then you are not allowed to run away again, I will come to see you again this weekend."

Tao An originally wanted Gu Xiao not to come here, he lived a good life with the children here, but Gu Xiao acted as if he would not agree to let it go, so Tao An had no choice but to give in, promising that he would never leave here.

Gu Xiao knew that Tao An would not lie to him, so he drove away from the community with confidence.

After Gu Xiao left, Tao An entered the house in a complicated mood. He looked at the small room that was so small that he could hardly move, and thought, at least this is his home, no one can drive him out, and no one will Push him downstairs.

Because Gu Xiao suddenly came to the door, Tao An was a little annoyed, but he soon had no time to take care of Gu Xiao, because something happened in the convenience store made him feel very strange.

Tao An returned to work at the convenience store that day, and noticed that the old employee looked at him a little strangely. He thought he had done something wrong, but when he asked the other party, he got a negative answer.

Tao An felt that maybe he was thinking too much, maybe there were too many customers who came to the store to take pictures recently, so he caused trouble for the other party, so he was embarrassed to say it.

Tao An decided to buy a shaker and put it in the rest room in the future, and let his children rest in it when he was working, so that customers would not always come to take pictures, which would affect the normal order of the store.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and the old employee handed over his get off work. He took his bag and left the convenience store. When he walked out of the door, he looked back at Tao An who was standing in front of the cash register, and quietly opened the photo album on his mobile phone.

The quality of the photo looks like it was taken through a TV, and the content inside is a little blurry, but if you look closely, you can still recognize it as a missing person notice, and the photo of Tao An is pasted in the lower right corner.

Today, the old employee was bored and turned on the TV, and happened to see this missing person notice. The identity information on it was all matched with the new employee in their store.

It just so happened that he was short of money recently, so he wanted to get a bounty.

After the convenience store was thrown far away, the old employee took out his mobile phone, dialed the number on the photo, and whispered, "Hello, I know where the man in the photo is."
