As she walked closer, the voice became louder and louder. It was indeed a man crying.

She followed the sound. It didn't sound like a ghost's cry or a Wolf's howl, but like someone crying very sadly. It made people who heard it feel a little sad. She gently opened a door.

She saw a man holding a pen and writing something. However, he was crying and writing at the same time.

He was a man who was almost 1.8 meters tall, but he was crying like a child at this moment. He was on the verge of wailing, but even so, he was still focused on completing the work at hand.

Xia ruoxin looked at her watch. It was past ten. She got off work late because she had some matters to attend to. Of course, it was also because Chu lui was coming over later. That was why she was fearless. Otherwise, she would not have been so busy that she did not go home.

The painting and calligraphy studio closed at five o 'clock. As it wasn't the busy season recently, and there weren't any large-scale art exhibitions or the like, everyone left early after they got off work. How could there still be people here?

And this person seemed to be Xu Ziru, who she had always admired.

However, what was he crying for, a man?

There must be something to cry about, and she didn't want to embarrass him. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Xu Ziru cry even louder.

Xia ruoxin did not know what had happened for a man to cry like this. She could not bear to see him cry.

Forget it. She turned around and knocked on the door.

When he heard the sound of the door opening, Xu congzi could not help but be stunned, and the color on his face faded a little.

"Xu congru, it's me. I'm lu Xiaohua."

Xia ruoxin stood at the door and said to close it, in case Xu Ziru thought she was a ghost.

Sure enough, as soon as she spoke, Xu Ziru's pale face began to relax.

It was CEO Lu.

Xu Ziru quickly wiped away his tears and went to open the door, but his expression was awkward.

"CEO Lu, you're not back yet?"

He had a pretty good impression of CEO Lu, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. She was a woman in her late twenties. Even though she came from a rich family, she was not arrogant at all. In fact, she had an easy-going personality. Of course, she was not just here for fun. She was really working. Xu Ziru felt very good about this kind of boss. At the very least, she would not let her studio go bankrupt.

I worked overtime for a while. I'll be back in a while, " Xia ruoxin replied. Then, she walked over and picked up Xu Ziru's work drawing that was halfway done. It was a trademark for an e-commerce store, and there were still a few pages left.

The style was somewhat similar to Sun Zhong's, and sun Zhong's style was more popular in the domestic industry.

No, she felt that this should be Sun Zhong's drawing.

However, she had seen Xu Ziru finish this with her own eyes, and it was obvious that he still had to finish half of it.

Her guess was really right. Sun Zhong got in because of his relationship with Wu Sha and even plagiarized someone else's work. Even if they had a relationship, they couldn't do this.

What was the difference between this and stealing?

Let's not talk about this for now. She would take care of it. If she couldn't even manage this, then she would rather not have this calligraphy studio.

"Can I know what you're crying about?"

Xia ruoxin asked Xu Ziru if it was because he was working overtime or because he had something to do at home.

Xu Ziru was stunned for a moment. Then, he slowly squatted down. First, he covered his face and did not say anything. Then, he started to sob, and finally, he started to cry.

"My daughter is sick, but I have to work overtime. If I don't finish this, I won't get paid. If I don't have money, how can I treat my daughter's illness? How are you going to live with your daughter?" He was from the countryside. He got married early, but his wife died early due to complications. In the end, he only had a daughter, and the child was weak and sickly since young. He had no choice but to work everywhere. Finally, he, who had some talent in painting, entered the calligraphy and painting studio opened by Wu Sha and became a painter here. Sun Zhong was also there at that time. Sun Zhong took a fancy to his paintings and reached a private agreement with him. In the future, his paintings would no longer be his, but Sun Zhong's. On the other hand, Sun Zhong would give him a large sum of money to keep his mouth shut. He could find a small house to live in here and have the money to treat his daughter's illness. Therefore, he sold his work and his personality.

"Is the child sick now?" Xia ruoxin did not know many things, but she had heard clearly about her child's illness.

Yes, she was sick, and she was still sick. Xu Ziru's eyes were bloodshot from staying up all night. He was worried about his daughter. I asked a neighbor to help take care of the child. The neighbor said that the child is still running a fever and asked me to send the child to the hospital. &Quot;

That's right, he had asked someone else to take care of her. They had only taken his money and helped take care of her for a while, but they couldn't possibly take care of her every day. He didn't have the money to hire a full-time nanny for his daughter. All his money had been used for his daughter's treatment.

Xia ruoxin's phone in her bag rang. She knew it was Chu lui. She took out her phone and placed it by her ear.

"Did something happen? why isn't he out yet?" he asked. Chu lui looked at the time. She said that she was coming out at around 10:00. It was almost 10:30.

give me a while. I have some things to settle. Xia ruoxin did not have the time to explain too much to Chu lui. She hung up the phone and reached out to Pat Xu Ziru's shoulder.

"Don't cry. I'll go with you to the hospital first. A fever is not a small matter."

However, Xu Ziru didn't dare to do so. The work was not done yet, and his daughter often had a fever. Every time he sent her to the hospital, the child had already had a fever and was tired. However, if she didn't have a job and her salary was deducted, she wouldn't be able to treat her illness.

"I'll make up for the salary you've lost."

Xia ruoxin stood up and opened the door. let's go. No matter how much money you earn, if something really happens to the child, you won't be able to buy it no matter how much money you have. she was no stranger to Xu Ziru's powerlessness. Back then, she and rainy were also living the same life. They had no way out and had no one to rely on. They had made it through. Even though it had been a tough journey, they had made it through. However, no one knew about Xu Ziru and his daughter.

Xu Ziru didn't react at first, but he quickly wiped his tears dry and stood up.

Chu lui tapped his fingers on the steering wheel from time to time.

It's been so long, could something have happened?

He opened the car door and just as he stepped out, he saw Xia ruoxin coming out with a dispirited man behind her.

He narrowed his eyes.

Xia ruoxin opened the car door. Chu lui's car door was not easy to open. He had only opened it a few times, so she really did not know where to open it. It could only be his hobby.
