Xia Zhanqiao was angry when he heard this, why could she go in and out of the corner at will to eavesdrop?
Thinking of the night Lu Shaochuan and Wen Hui'er got married, aren't they the same for themselves and their husband...... She had no choice but to stop pursuing it.
"Just because of this?"
Wen Huier nodded and replied, "Shaochuan was playful before he got married, and now that he is married, although he has some scruples, he still can't change his temperament. She said self-deprecatingly.
Xia stood and saw that she was sad, so he was relieved, "Maybe this is not the case, why don't we secretly pull out the surveillance video and take a look, and the truth will be revealed? I called Jinyu and asked him not to tell Lu Shaochuan yet."
Wen Huier said nothing, she was very scared, afraid of seeing those painful pictures for her.
Seeing that she was going to fight, "Wait a moment, let me be quiet first."
After staying for five minutes, she got up to leave, Xia Zhanqiao followed, she didn't expect things to be so unfortunate, just went out, just met Lu Shaochuan and a beautiful woman who came out of room No. 1, they were actually in Su Jinyu's room!
Lu Shaochuan may not have expected Wen Huier to come to him, and he didn't have the slightest guilt on his face about being caught and raped, but said frankly, "Why are you here?"
Wen Huier turned her face to the side and didn't look at him, and finally she snorted coldly, "If you can come, can't I come?"
Lu Shaochuan saw that Xia Zhanqiao was also here, and his face was slightly embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, why are you here too?"
Xia Zhanqiao said lightly, "You are here, I can't come, Shaochuan, there are some things, everyone is clear, they are more happy, don't run away, just talk to Hui'er."
Lu Shaochuan laughed dryly, "Actually, it's nothing, Hui'er, let's go home."
He took two steps forward, but unexpectedly the beautiful woman beside him grabbed his arm, "What should I do? Aren't we not ...... yet?"
Hearing this, Wen Huier turned her head and walked forward, and Xia Zhanqiao chased after her.
Seeing this, Lu Shaochuan shook off the beautiful woman's hand, "What should you do? How do I know what to do with you? I didn't hit your car on purpose, I've already given you a check, hurry up and fix it, you have to come to my room this morning to make a fuss, do you want to coerce me?" That's good, don't bleed on my bed, go home!"
After Lu Shaochuan finished shouting, seeing that Wen Huier and Xia Zhanqiao had long since disappeared, he roared viciously, "It's all you! Angry my wife and left! Take the check and get out of here quickly, let me see you again, believe it or not, I've found someone to take your turn!"
The beauty was obviously frightened, she stood there with a pale face, holding a check of a thousand yuan in her hand, and asked the sky speechlessly, if she came out without a wallet, she would give this little money, how could she repair the car!
Wen Hui'er walked very quickly, almost running, "Hui'er, slow down, wait for me!"
Wen Huier slowed down, and the two walked side by side.
"Sister Xia, I feel like I can't breathe, it's so uncomfortable."
"I know, I know, we just got out of here." Xia Zhanqiao was about to solicit a taxi, and a taxi stopped in front of the two of them accurately.
The car window was opened, and the old man said with a smile, "Girl, I'll give you a ride, and I know you'll come out."
Neither of them answered his words, they were not in the mood.
got in the car, the old man asked again, "Where to go?"
"Garden community." Xia Zhanqiao replied.
The old man sighed, "Girl, you are all so young, why do you want to do this kind of profession?"
One sentence stunned the two people again, this kind of profession? What does the divine horse mean?
"Uncle, what do you mean?"
The old man sighed again, "Needless to say, the uncle understands that you may have your difficulties, and the uncle understands you, but will you really be happy to live in such a beautiful and big house? Listening to the uncle's words, a woman's youth has a shelf life, child, look back at the shore."
Wen Huier replied with a crackle, "Uncle, don't guess randomly, okay? Our family lives there, and we haven't done anything harmful, you old man is so old, and you still come to drive a taxi, so don't be afraid that the traffic police will arrest you!"
The car stopped at the gate of the community, Xia Zhanqiao and Wen Hui'er got out of the car, and happened to meet Su Jinyu leading Su Xiabao over.
Su Xiabao ran to her side and shouted, "Mom, Daddy went to pick me up today."
He couldn't wait to find a hole in the ground to get in, but he always felt uneasy, so he stretched out his hand and waved it, "Girl, the uncle said the wrong thing, I'm sorry."
Xia Zhanqiao smiled, "It's okay, you drive carefully."
"Hui'er, go to my house first." Xia Zhanqiao said, and a few people went back together.
Su Xiabao saw that his aunt was unhappy, so he said, "Auntie, what's wrong with you? Xia Bao will play with you."
Wen Huier nodded, "Then let's go play online games and leave all those monsters behind."
Xia Zhanqiao laughed, if this was a good way to vent.
Wen Huier and Su Xiabao went upstairs, the two Wen entered the other bedroom, each holding a notebook, and entered the latest game "Killing the Immortals", each registered a new number, Su Xiabao put on the equipment skillfully, and then the two made friends and prepared to do the task together.
Just entered a space and hadn't reacted yet.
A group of wedding teams greeted them, and many little shrimp players swaggered over carrying a sedan chair.
Wen Huier is right in the middle of the way.
Immediately afterwards, a player carrying the sedan chair launched a direct attack and killed Wen Hui'er in one fell swoop.
Su Xiabao laughed, "Auntie, that woman is so powerful, we are both first-class people now, not opponents of others, do you want to be resurrected now?"
"Of course!"
Wen Hui'er immediately bought the Resurrection Pill, and then jumped into the Immortal Pool with Su Xiabao to level up with very few players, it costs a hundred yuan to enter here, come here, the leveling is very fast, ten minutes at a time, ten minutes can practice dozens of levels, come here two or three times, even if you are a little god.
It's just that it costs a hundred yuan for ten minutes, and few people will come here to burn money.
At this time, she didn't think about anything in her mind, but deliberately thought about venting.
When Lu Shaochuan arrived, Xia Zhanqiao was sitting on the sofa reading a novel, and Su Jinyu was cooking in the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, where is Hui'er?" Lu Shaochuan asked anxiously.
Xia Zhanqiao didn't even raise his eyelids and asked, "Where is Hui'er? How do I know?"
Lu Shaochuan's face immediately wrinkled into a bun and sat next to her, "Sister-in-law, I was wrong, can't I explain it to you first?"
"Say."
"The girl you saw was a girl I drove recklessly last night, I was in a hurry to go out, I didn't bring a wallet, only a check for 1,000 yuan, that was still a check filled in by Hui'er, and then I said you take it first, and tomorrow I will send someone to repair and compensate you. He said infinitely aggrieved, "After going out that night, I regretted my impulsiveness."
"A thousand random checks? Shaochuan, are you deceiving the ghost? Then what is the blood stain on your suite bed? Isn't it the girl's pure blood?" Xia Zhanqiao put down the computer and asked.
She said that it was a friend's car that was driven, and the repair cost was expensive and she couldn't afford to compensate, thinking I was going to play a trick, but it wasn't like that, so I said, you stay in this room for one night, and I'll find someone to repair it for you tomorrow." He explained.
"Why didn't the blood drip anywhere, but dripped in the middle of the bed? Did Hui'er see you kiss that girl this morning? What explanation do you have?"
Lu Shaochuan said sullenly, "I saw Hui'er's nanny car, so I deliberately kissed it like that.
Xia Zhanqiao put on his slippers, "Okay, you go and transfer the monitoring of the entertainment city to me, so that the truth will be revealed. Go ahead."
The first one is still very easy to handle, but in the latter one, Lu Shaochuan felt that the girl would not come, so based on his harsh words before he came, the girl would not forgive herself, right?
"Sister-in-law, I won't come because of my scruples."
"Then Hui'er doesn't want to see you either."
Lu Shaochuan stood up, "Okay, tie me up and tie her up too!"
Seeing him walk out the door, the corner of Xia Zhanqiao's mouth raised a smile, in fact, she believed what he said just now, a person like Lu Shaochuan would not easily bow his head like a woman and admit his mistake, if he didn't love Wen Hui'er, he wouldn't marry her and make her pregnant.
Men in the upper class are the most cautious, and they usually don't leave seeds to germinate so easily, but aren't they themselves and Jinyu......
Thinking of this, Xia Zhanqiao almost wanted to hit the wall.
She lay at the kitchen door and asked slyly, "Sir, Xia Bao is the seed you unintentionally left, right?"
When Su Jinyu heard her words, she laughed, "Madam, do you know what I am most proud of in my life?"
Xia Zhanqiao said complacently narcissistic: "Of course I have a good wife like me."
Su Jinyu replied, "Congratulations, I only answered half right, what I am most proud of is that you successfully conceived our Xia Bao."
"How do you say this?"
Su Jinyu wiped her hand on the apron, "Madam, don't worry, in fact, it is still my greatest credit that you can get pregnant with Xia Bao, because I couldn't help but feel a little more in the bathroom that day." He paused, and there was a rare blush on his face, "Then I finally got rid of the condom, I think, isn't the chance of winning it very small? Who knew that it was about to happen, and Xia Bao succeeded in making it so gorgeous."
Xia Zhanqiao opened his mouth and was stunned, "I thought it was an accident, but I didn't expect it was you who deliberately enjoyed it and directly killed someone!"
Su Jinyu said proudly, "Isn't this a good thing? Xia Bao is our lucky star, Qiao'er, hurry up and thank your son."
After saying that, he kissed Xia Zhanqiao's face, and then left a mark on the other face.
"My lord, you are so shameful!"
"Madam, my shame makes you like it!"
Summer Trestle: ......
"Are you frying shrimp balls? Let me try it first." She pointed to a plate on the cabinet.
Su Jinyu pinched one, "Open your mouth, I'll feed you, the temperature is just right."
。
Su Jinyu pinched one, "Open your mouth, I'll feed you, the temperature is just right."
Xia Zhanqiao opened his mouth, tasted the taste, and unknowingly swept away all the plates, his appetite has really grown bigger and bigger recently.
Wen Huier and Su Xiabao both practiced in the fairy pool for half an hour, and both rose to more than fifty levels.
Wen Huier once again bought a lot of rare equipment and weapons, and both Su Xiabao rode unicorns to the wedding scene in the game just now.
The player who killed her just now is still there.
Wen Huier stared at the female player, and couldn't help but snort coldly, it was this little beauty who slapped her fledgling self to death.
She and Su Xiabao nodded and launched an attack on the female player in her seventies.
After three beats, the female player was finally beaten and lying on the grass panting.
Wen Huier didn't give her a chance to add blood, and broke out of attack again, this time, she was really dead.
Some other players couldn't stand it anymore and shouted directly with loudspeakers: Red Face Disaster Water (Wen Huier's game nickname) and Blue Face Charm (Su Xiabao's game nickname) Why did you two beat my sister paper for no reason!
Wen Huier quickly replied: Because I want to.
A female player answered: You are too domineering, right? If you dare to be so arrogant, my sisters will destroy you!"
Wen Huier launched an attack without saying a word, poor female player was only in her twenties, and she was killed all at once.
Su Xiabao clapped his hands repeatedly, "Auntie, you are so great, let's go to the fairy pool for another hour, you think no one can stop you!"
Wen Huier waved her hand again and again, "Don't throw money here, let the website make money, Auntie doesn't want to play online games anymore."
Su Xiabao was surprised, "Wasn't it you who wanted to vent just now? Why don't you play, haven't you played yet?"
"I found that the more I played, the more angry I became, and the more I wanted to forget but remembered the most." She turned off the computer.
Su Xiabao pulled her little face, "Auntie, why are you so hot for a while, you don't play before it starts, really, well, good boys don't play games, and I don't play anymore."
Wen Huier took his hand, "That's right, Xia Bao, Auntie will play with you again in the future, but I'm not in the mood now, let's go downstairs."
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Lu Shaochuan pulling the young girl in, Wen Hui'er's eyes were staring straight at their hands, Lu Shaochuan also noticed, quickly let go, and said with an awkward smile, "It's urgent. Hehehe."
Wen Huier ignored him, sat next to Xia Zhanqiao, and said, "Sister Xia, if you still know a good man like Su Shao, it's not too late to introduce me now, you can be prepared."
Xia Zhanqiao smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely keep it for you."
Lu Shaochuan was aggrieved, "Don't mind, sister-in-law, didn't you say that you wanted me to bring someone to explain to you? Oh, someone brought it."
He looked at the young girl, "Tell me the truth about the matter to my wife and my sister-in-law."
The young girl glared at him, "Wouldn't it be nice if you repaired the car last night? Seeing that you are in a hurry, I will naturally say it."
Then she smiled sweetly, "I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you, in fact, here's the thing, last night I was driving my friend's car through the corner of Binjiang Road and happened to collide with Mr. Lu, and the front of the car was damaged, so I asked Mr. Lu to compensate and take care of the repairs. Who knows, he directly gave me a check for 1,000 yuan to repair a Ferrari car, isn't this pure nonsense? So I thought he wanted to evade responsibility, so I kept following him, and I couldn't afford to repair the car myself, as long as I stuck to him dryly. As for the blood on the bed, I cut it with a knife, it's really not that ......"
Speaking of this, the girl blushed and said again, "It's really not that bloody, I have a boyfriend, when Lu Shao went to find me just now, he had already sent the car for repair, and the cost was paid.
After listening to the girl's words, Wen Huier said questioningly, "What you said is true?"
"If there is a lie, the sky will be struck by lightning!" The girl said seriously, "I'm sorry to disturb you, I'll go back first, my boyfriend is still waiting for me at the door."
She was about to leave, Xia Zhanqiao got up, "Let's eat here before leaving?"
The girl shook her head, "No need, bye-bye."
Xia Zhanqiao and Wen Hui'er sent her out, and sure enough, there was a handsome young man standing at the gate, and when he saw the girl coming out, he immediately took her hand, and the two of them sat in the QQ car and left.
Xia Zhanqiao turned around and handed the monitoring disc in his hand to Wen Hui'er, "Okay, take a look, this time I really misunderstood Shaochuan, the young couple should not lose their temper, after all, they have a baby, so they should not be angry."
Lu Shaochuan's eyes were full of surprise, "Sister-in-law, what did you say? Have a baby?"
Xia Zhanqiao pursed his lips and smiled, "Yes, you fool, you are going to be a father, and you still have a temper tantrum with your wife, go home and kneel on the washboard."
After saying that, Xia Zhanqiao entered the house.
Lu Shaochuan looked at Wen Hui'er who was looking at the disc with her head down, and couldn't help but say, "Hui'er, is it true?" He confirmed it again.
Wen Huier glared at him awkwardly, "Is it still fake? Now you can go out to pick up girls openly, let's go, go quickly, otherwise, beautiful women will be favored by others!"
Lu Shaochuan laughed a few times, "It was my fault last night, wife, don't be angry, didn't I think you lied to me? I didn't expect to have a child, I, Lu Shaochuan, finally have a queen!"
He hugged Wen Hui'er into his arms, "Wife, I, Lu Shaochuan, swear to you that such a thing will never happen again."
Wen Hui'er's eyes instantly turned red and she nodded.
The young couple reconciled in the evening and immediately went to Su Jinyu's house to eat as usual.
Xia Zhanqiao saw the two of them looking like glue, and coughed dryly, "Do less things that are inappropriate for children, kiss them, do you need to kiss once a minute?"
Lu Shaochuan laughed, "Sister-in-law, if you think about it, Su Shao will come back to wash the dishes soon, and you two can do it too."
Xia Zhanqiao hummed, "Lu Shaochuan, the scar is okay and I forgot the pain."
"Sister-in-law, this is not Su Shao."
Su Jinyu saw Lu Shaochuan's smiling and unbeaten appearance, and snorted coldly, "If you dare to mess with my wife, you just wait and see."
"How dare I."
Wen Huier said enviously, "Shaochuan, look how good Su Shao is, he is still cooking and washing dishes, why are you not so diligent?"
"Wife, isn't that a piece of cake? I will too." He said smoothly, and when he realized what he said, he couldn't wait to bite off his tongue, where can you cook?
"Well, in the future, I will leave you with such a piece of cake until the confinement is over." Wen Hui'er settled the matter in one sentence.
"Actually, if our family is rich, we can hire a few more helpers, not to mention, I can only eat, not cook." Lu Shaochuan suggested.
"You can learn." Wen Huier understated.
Xia Zhanqiao laughed again and again, "What you said, the air hasn't even been released yet, you regret it, Lu Shaochuan, do you have this ability?"
"Okay, I'll just learn, why can't I do what Su Shao can do?"
When Wen Huier was about to go to the set the next day, she was stopped by Lu Shaochuan and refused to go, and in the end, Wen Hui'er said that it was her wish, and she went with Xia Zhanqiao.
The corners of Xia Zhanqiao's mouth twitched, "I am also a pregnant woman, so I will naturally take care of her, so don't be verbose."
Lu Shaochuan wanted to say something, the car door was closed, the car hurriedly got on the highway, L City and K City were connected, and it could be reached in more than half an hour.
Wen Huier looked in a good mood today, "Sister Xia, why don't we stay in a hotel in Hengdian, otherwise it will be too troublesome to run around like this."
Xia Zhanqiao pointed to Lu Shaochuan, who still had a little shadow, "As long as you persuade him, I will go home and persuade the one in my family."
Wen Huier laughed, "If it was okay before, now I dare to say that he doesn't want to be killed."
Xia Zhanqiao laughed, "Yes, yes, you are also a national treasure now, so naturally he doesn't dare to neglect you."
The two chatted and laughed and arrived at the set of Hengdian in K City.
Park Wenlan had just put on makeup, and he looked more and more handsome and charming, especially when he saw the slightly curled corners of his lips on Xia Zhanqiao, which made the fans who came to visit dizzy.
At this moment, Mingzhu's heart was actually a little sour, the man she liked loved other women, it was the most painful thing in the world, especially the thirty-year-old married and childbearing woman-level figure, which made people feel even more unhappy.
She tugged at Park Wenlan's sleeve, "Hurry up and go over there, the heroine is already waiting."
Park Wenlan was shocked to find that he had lost his mind, but he had no other emotions and nodded.
Wen Hui'er looked at the two people in front of her and muttered in a low voice, "I really feel sorry for Wen Lan."
Xia Zhanqiao smiled again, "What do you mean?"
"When you encounter a competitor like Su Shao, you will naturally be defeated."
Su Jinyu's smile suddenly appeared in Xia Zhanqiao's mind, and his heart was as sweet as a jar of honey.
"Now that Wen Lan has a new partner, I don't feel so guilty." She said leisurely, "I really don't owe him anything."
"Then simply put it in your heart, bless him silently, and don't pay it back."
Xia Zhanqiao smiled bitterly, "Maybe it is much more suitable to be a lifelong friend than a lover, we have no fate in this life."
The two walked into the makeup room, and the makeup artist drooped his head and said, "Miss Wen, are you still not wearing makeup today?"
Wen Huier nodded, "I will tell the director, don't worry."
The makeup artist breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly went to apply makeup to the other supporting characters.
Filming officially started, Xia Zhanqiao and the director sat together looking at the camera, staring at the expressions of the characters inside.
If the director of individual shots is not satisfied, go through it twice.
Time flies, the crew has been in Hengdian for more than a month, this month, everyone has almost no rest time, unable to withstand Su Jinyu's forced action, Xia Zhanqiao finally agreed to go on a weekend outing and climbing, activities.
The days are getting warmer, the days are getting longer, March is the time when the spring flowers are blooming, the flowers are smiling, and the earth is heart-wrenching.
Spring has arrived, everything has recovered, and it is a prosperous scene.
The beautiful scenery of spring can be seen everywhere, and pedestrians only need to walk, see and appreciate.
It is rare to step on spring, and the summer trestle is extremely relaxing.
This is a rural field outside the forest on the outskirts of L City, so even if the scenery here is extremely beautiful, it is sparsely populated.
Su Jinyu brought her here, not only because he used to come often, but also because there were so few people. Quiet, suitable for them as a couple.
Xia Zhanqiao hasn't walked on these rural roads for a long time, and when he first stepped on the dirt land, he had a sincere sense of intimacy.
It is probably because of the too much asphalt walking.
The dirt and grass are fragrant everywhere, and the summer trestle is walking on it, only to feel that it is soft and soft.
Kusama is a small yellow and blue flower.
The dirt road is long, and as far as the eye can see, there is a green and tender green, and the small blue-yellow flowers fall between the blue and yellow colors, and from a distance, it looks like a flower bag, tied between the willow waists of the beauty, fluttering in the wind.
Su Jinyu took Xia Zhanqiao's hand and walked slowly, step by step.
This feeling of walking hand in hand with him is like being in a state of despair with him, warm, full, and touching.
Probably because spring has arrived and farmers also want to plow and sow in the spring, Xia Zhanqiao and Su Jinyu can occasionally see a few farmers planning to go to the fields behind their backs.
Xia Zhanqiao looked at them and couldn't help but say to Su Jinyu, "Let you farm, you definitely won't."
"There is a sequence of hearings, and there is a specialization in the art industry."
Well, one sentence has already blocked her.
Walking through a trickling stream, Xia Zhanqiao looked at the crystal clear stream and couldn't help but say to Su Jinyu, "Have you been to the source of this stream?"
"Of course."
"Is that place far away?"
"Not far."
Xia Zhanqiao nodded, staying for a while, he had to take a look, after all, such clear water is rare even in K City, which is known for its beautiful environment, this place is a treasure land.
Su Jinyu will choose a place.
If Su Jinyu hadn't pulled her alive, I am afraid she would have to wait until the TV series was filmed before she came.
The two slowly climbed to the top of the mountain and enjoyed the peaceful world of two.
Su Xiabao was not brought this time, firstly because Su Xiabao was going to school, but Su Jinyu wanted to selfishly bathe well with his wife A life of only two people, which was the life he had been looking forward to for a long time.
He hugged Xia Zhanqiao tightly and said softly, "Qiao'er, after the TV series is filmed, don't take over the job, be my personal assistant, take care of official business, family, and children."
Xia Zhanqiao smiled, "Aren't I doing what you said now?"
"But you didn't do the last one."
Xia Zhanqiao, "I saw that the Internet said it would be three months, and it would be ...... That's it."
"Then it will take another month."
"Wait slowly, as long as the two of us are together, don't you think that everything is secondary?"
Su Jinyu smiled heartily, "My husband naturally knows, and your husband knows everything."
Xia Zhanqiao laughed, then threw himself into his arms, smelling the good smell on his body, until time gradually faded, the sunset on the horizon gradually sank, turning into red clouds of fire, and the two were leaving together.
It was already too early when he came back, Su Jinyu cooked a few dishes, and as soon as it was ready, Lu Shaochuan came again with Wen Hui'er, followed by Su Xiabao.
"Su Shao, you are at ease, Xia Bao was still picked up by me." He said as if asking for credit.
"You are his uncle, did you lose money when you took it back?" Su Jinyu snorted coldly, "If you want to eat, sit down quickly, why is there so much nonsense?"
Lu Shaochuan smiled and said, "A few days ago, I also tried to cook by myself, either burnt or too salty to swallow.
Xia Zhanqiao smiled, "If you don't learn to cook, you have to be prepared to cook for the rest of your life."
Lu Shaochuan nodded, "Why don't we merge into one family, let's move here, so we can eat every day."
Su Jinyu flew out with a chopstick and stuck it in Lu Shaochuan's rice.
"Each family is their own family, how can they be one family, or you are poor and can't afford to eat or live in a house, I can give you some alms."
Lu Shaochuan spat out a mouthful of rice, "Why can't we become in-laws, if my sister-in-law is pregnant with a daughter, and Hui'er is pregnant with a boy, can't we marry a doll, so isn't it a family?"
The corners of Xia Zhanqiao's mouth twitched, "Shaochuan, what are you thinking about all day long? It is illegal to arrange a marriage, not to mention, it depends on the wishes of the two children when they grow up, besides, how can you be so clear about the gender in my belly and Hui'er's belly."
Lu Shaochuan shouted narcisisally, "I have the ability to be a prophet, sister-in-law, do you believe it?"
Wen Huier didn't want to see her husband continue to be embarrassed here, so she stopped: "Does someone treat you as a mute?"
Lu Shaochuan smiled, "No, let's eat."
Just after dinner, Xia Zhanqiao and Wen Hui'er, two pregnant women, browsed scientific pregnancy knowledge online.
Lu Shaochuan hugged Xia Bao and the two of them played the game console, naturally, it was Su Jinyu who was still washing the dishes.
At this moment, Park Wenlan came in with a pearl.
Xia Zhanqiao stood up when he saw this, and said with a smile, "Why is this time coming?"
"Come and see the child."
This excuse sucks! Lu Shaochuan thought to himself, and then, he smiled knowingly, now Su Shao should be cautious, I really want to see him like that.
