On the day Zhou Yu called, Xiao Zifeng drove around the Jincheng funeral home in a big circle, and just found a parking space on the road.

Seeing the caller ID of Zhou Yu's photo, Xiao Zifeng, who was a little impetuous in order to park, his expression instantly lit up, and he couldn't wait to press the answer button.

The phone was connected, but the people over there didn't say anything.

The olive branches have been handed over, and Xiao Zifeng must be careful to catch them.

"Xiao Yu, is that you?" Xiao Zifeng asked softly, completely unaware that his tone was so sweet.

The other side didn't open his mouth, and Xiao Zifeng didn't urge, thinking very much, he had to let the little girl have a process of adapting.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu never disappoints.

A slightly shy voice sounded in Xiao Zifeng's ears: "I have started normal training in the past few days. Zhao Ziang entered the first team, and I met him in the restaurant. He asked me if I would like to be paired with him in mixed doubles. I consulted Coach Lu, and Coach Lu said that you can try it. Next week, the team will have us play against each other and ......"

Xiao Zifeng had a smile on the corners of his eyes and lips, but he subconsciously held his breath, for fear that as soon as he made a sound, Zhou Yu would stop talking.

Zhou Yu's large list of messages are all in response to the messages that Xiao Zifeng sent to her on WeChat in the past few days, but did not get a reply. It sounded like a debriefing, a little fast, with obvious nervousness.

Although Xiao Zifeng already knew what he should know, he felt completely different when he heard this from Zhou Yu's mouth.

was instructed by Guo Binghui that time, Xiao Zifeng originally planned to find Xi Xi as a lobbyist, but was immediately ridiculed by Guo Binghui. Later, when I thought about it, it was really embarrassing for him to be a big man who didn't take the initiative to face the problem and went to find helpers. So Xiao Zifeng obediently called Zhou Yu. Of course, it was expected to be denied.

What Xiao Zifeng can do is only wait for Zhou Yu to figure it out himself.

As a result, Xiao Zifeng finally discovered how difficult it is for people to reach middle age. He wears many hats, and now he has a lot of things at hand; Guo Binghui's side needs someone to communicate with the doctor; and the old man in the family has not been in good health recently, and it is his duty to be a son. Time and energy do not allow Xiao Zifeng to leave everything behind for the sake of emotional problems.

Therefore, Zhou Yu can take the initiative to call, and Xiao Zifeng's first reaction is ...... Not to feel like Atlas any longer.

"On the day Lin Koukou left, we went to see him off. I promised to wait for him to return. Zhou Yu finally finished speaking.

"No problem, the level of cooperation between you is the best I have ever seen in a doubles pair. I also talked to Lin Koukou two days ago, he is a talented doubles player, whether it is the backcourt attack or the frontcourt control, although it is not perfect, but it has reached a high level. From a certain point of view, it is your luck to meet a malleable partner like Lin Koukou. Xiao Zifeng gushed endlessly, thinking that this entry point was good, at least the two could communicate naturally now.

"Senior brother must be happy to praise him like this, right?" Zhou Yu laughed visibly over there.

This laughter seems to have been lost for a long time, and it actually made Xiao Zifeng's heart shake a little. The little face with crooked eyebrows and eyes when he laughed clearly came to his mind.

The two claimed to have been in love for a few months, except for holding hands, he didn't even hug Zhou Yu. Xiao Zifeng deserted and self-examined in his heart, his gentlemanly demeanor was a little too much, but fortunately, the future is long, and the next time he sees him, he has to be stamped and certified.

"Senior brother?" Probably because Xiao Zifeng paused for a little long, Zhou Yu called him.

"That," put down the big stone in his heart, Xiao Zifeng really wanted to talk to Zhou Yu for a while. Since Lin Koukou can be used to chew his tongue, Xiao Zifeng voted for Zhou Yu's favor, "Mr. Lin told me that Lin Koukou has changed a lot now. In his spare time, he used to like to play games. Now in addition to rehabilitation training every day, he also knows to take the initiative to make up for the lessons of the previous school, and the rest of the time is used to watch the game, which is clearly arranged. It's hard to get used to this kid getting so good all of a sudden, and I'm curious, how long can he last?"

Zhou Yu laughed on the phone, and the crampedness when he first talked to Xiao Zifeng was gone.

Xiao Zifeng touched his forehead, Zhou Yu was still the coaxing little girl, and in a hurry, he forgot about Zhou Yu's advantage. I knew that I would have let go of my dignity as a man and make a few more phone calls, but I was afraid that the two would have reconciled early.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry. Zhou Yu coldly cut to the chase.

Xiao Zifeng was reluctant to let Zhou Yu apologize, and hurriedly grabbed the words: "Actually, I should apologize to you." When Lin Koukou had an accident, my way of dealing with it was too simple and direct, and I didn't take care of you...... And the feeling of Lin buckle. If I had communicated a little beforehand and made you understand that my starting point was not to let him take the detour that I had hurt before, maybe in your eyes, I would not have become a selfish person. ”

Zhou Yu: "I ......"

Hearing Xiao Zifeng say this, Zhou Yu felt even more guilty. Originally, she plucked up the courage and was ready to be taught a lesson by Xiao Zifeng. Unexpectedly, people apologized to her in turn.

Well, Zhou Yu won't dare to be willful with Xiao Zifeng next time.

"Being Zhou Yu's boyfriend for the first time, I still have room to learn. Xiao Zifeng made up his mind to take advantage of this opportunity to have a little more favor.

Since Xiao Zifeng is so high-spirited, Zhou Yu no longer twisted, and bravely criticized himself: "Senior brother, it's time for me to apologize, I was too impulsive at that time, I couldn't figure out the situation, and I refused to listen to your explanation, I will change it in the future." ”

Xiao Zifeng leaned back in the chair, only to feel refreshed and depressed.

Just when Zhou Yu was about to continue the review, Xiao Zifeng asked: "Do we still want to apologize to each other like this, why don't we talk about something else?"

Zhou Yu: "...... Good. ”

"You and Zhao Ziang can try to partner for a while, and I think you also know something about his style of play. Zhao Ziang himself mainly attacks singles, has a tough style of play, and emphasizes offense," Xiao Zifeng returned to the bank in three sentences, "But no one can guarantee that the two of you will be able to combine successfully." Zhao Ziang has a strong personality on the court, and so do you. He may not be able to accommodate you in everything like Lin Koukou. You have to remember that if you want to reach a tacit agreement in mixed doubles, you must first learn to back down. ”

"Am I so domineering?" Zhou Yu expressed disbelief.

Xiao Zifeng paused obviously and said, "Who dares to say that you are domineering, I will beat him!"

Zhou Yu's childish giggles rang from the phone again.

Xiao Zifeng sighed in his heart, he never thought that there would be such a little girl in his life, looking harmless to humans and animals, but easily controlling his joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and he was still willing.

The driver's window was knocked, Xiao Zifeng turned his head to look, and nodded slightly at the other party.

"Senior brother often goes to see Lin Koukou?" Zhou Yu asked again.

"Do you know so clearly?" Xiao Zifeng asked rhetorically.

"Xi Xi said that she went to visit Lin Koukou. Zhou Yu replied.

Xiao Zifeng simply teased: "You guys don't give Shang Ke a little way out!"

As expected, Zhou Yu was amused again: "Xi Xi told Lin Koukou that everyone is happier to be friends." As for Shang Ke, the two of them have no contact. Moreover, Xi Xi started to go on a blind date again. ”

"Actually, Boss Shang is not as bad as you think. Xiao Zifeng rarely said a fair word for Shang Ke.

Zhou Yu laughed for a while and said, "Okay, I'm going to hang up." I didn't dare to call Master for the past few days, for fear that he would know about us. Senior brother, you didn't tell him, did you?"

Xiao Zifeng was speechless.

"Senior brother definitely didn't say it," Zhou Yu was quite confident in Xiao Zifeng, "Master has sent me messages these days, all of which are asking me to train hard, so I shouldn't know it." But it's a little strange that when I called him, he didn't answer. Only replied to the message, saying that he was in class, and he has been taking a lot of classes lately. ”

Xiao Zifeng: "......"

Guo Binghui repeatedly told him not to let Xiao Zifeng disclose his hospitalization to Zhou Yu and Qiao Fang.

After Zhou Yu left, Qiao Fang said that he lived in the sports school twenty-four hours a day, and Xiao Zifeng couldn't see anyone, even if he did, he didn't dare to go up and talk, so naturally he wouldn't leak the news.

It's Zhou Yu......

Guo Binghui's heart bypass is only a matter of the past few days, and he really wants to hide it from Zhou Yu, Xiao Zifeng feels that it is a little unreasonable. Although the operation is not a big risk, what will Zhou Yu think if something happens?

"Hang up, I remember that Master's classes are after ten o'clock, I'll try again. Zhou Yu obviously didn't have Xiao Zifeng's mind here anymore.

"Good. Xiao Zifeng followed Zhou Yudao, planning to go back to the hospital and discuss it with Guo Binghui again.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Yu, Xiao Zifeng opened the door and got out of the car, noticing that Assistant Xu, who had knocked on his car window just now, did not walk away.

"Mr. Xiao, Dong Li, please come over and talk!" Assistant Xu said with his head half-bowed.

Since being punched by Xiao Zifeng, this person usually basically avoids Xiao Zifeng and really can't dodge, and Assistant Xu never has any eye contact with him, it seems that he has been convinced.

Seeing Xiao Zifeng walking towards him, Li Shihong took the initiative to meet him, and while shaking hands with him, he said half-jokingly: "I came here just now, and I saw Mr. Xiao calling in the car." Wait for me to get out of the car, you're still fighting. Mr. Xiao's young and promising is really worthy of his reputation!"

made a phone call and was praised as a flower, Xiao Zifeng was amused in his heart, and said perfunctorily: "I didn't expect Li Dong to come in person while he was busy." ”

"Mr. Qiu is an old friend of my father's old friend, and the two families are considered world friends, so I came here to do my best for my nephew. Li Shihong said this, and suddenly stopped.

Noticing that Li Shihong was looking to their right, Xiao Zifeng turned his head with him, and then his expression changed.

Qiao Fang was walking by with a group of people, seemingly not squinting, but Xiao Zifeng was sure that she had just glanced at herself.

Xiao Zifeng knew that the big thing was not good, so he let Qiao Fang bump into him and stand with Li Shihong, which was a deliberate attempt to discredit himself.

"By the way, isn't Zhou Yu your apprentice, Mr. Xiao and Qiao Fang should be familiar with each other, right? Li Shihong's idea came quite quickly.

Xiao Zifeng was in a hurry to leave: "It depends on the situation! Don't bother Li Dong, I'll go in first!"

Li Shihong obviously saw that Xiao Zifeng was reluctant to take this stubble, but he didn't chase after him, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "Let's be together!"

Xiao Zifeng was helpless, but he was in public, and it was not easy to get rid of Li Shihong.

"Today's grand ceremony is all for the Qiu family's face. The old man has been affectionate and righteous all his life, and he is willing to bring newcomers. I still remember that when I came to Jincheng to open a branch, it was still the road paved for me by the old man. In the blink of an eye, things are different. When waiting in line to enter the memorial hall, Li Shihong sighed.

Xiao Zifeng has never dealt with this old gentleman, and this time he also came on behalf of the Secretariat of the Badminton Council. But he has heard of the famous name of others. The deepest impression comes from Mr. Qiu's identity as Fan Lin's father-in-law.

"When will this be?" Li Shihong looked at his watch, frowned again, and looked at the old queue in front of him.

"I'm going to talk to them. Assistant Xu realized the boss's impatience, said a word, and walked towards the door of the mourning hall.

"Dong Li, I'm so sorry to keep you waiting. After a while, someone followed Assistant Xu briskly.

Li Shihong's face was a little pale, and he waved his hand at the other party: "Boss, what are we polite, today we are here to see off the old man, wait a while, it is also to express the hearts of our juniors." ”

Although to put it politely, Li Shihong followed the boss of the Qiu family into the end. Xiao Zifeng didn't want to cut into this line, and stood in the long stream of people by talking to an old-timer in the circle who was in front of him.

More than 20 minutes passed, and after bowing in the mourning hall, Xiao Zifeng turned around and came out again, and finally couldn't see Li Shihong.

The eldest son of the Qiu family was seeing off guests outside, and he couldn't help but say a few polite words to Xiao Zifeng.

As the two of them spoke, a man in a black suit walked past them.

Xiao Zifeng hadn't even noticed that the boss of the Qiu family had already gone up and stretched out his hand to stop the person.

When Xiao Zifeng saw that person clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised.

It stands to reason that Fan Lin is the son-in-law of the Qiu family, and he has accumulated a lot of contacts over the years by relying on the Yue family, and his career can be called proud. Now that his father-in-law's memorial service is such an important matter, he is actually late, which is very incomprehensible.

"Big brother, I'm sorry, I'm a little late. Fan Lin said, glancing at Xiao Zifeng intentionally or unintentionally.

The boss of the Qiu family replied: "There are many people today, don't go in." ”

"Anyway, I'm my father's son-in-law, and I can't help but see you for the last time!" Fan Lin said with a smile.

"Why bother, family meetings say good things. You know, my sister has a stubborn temper. Today is Dad's last day, so you're doing it yourself. The words of the boss of the Qiu family obviously smelled of gunpowder.

In just a few words, something unusual. Xiao Zifeng was not interested in inquiring into people's private affairs, so he said goodbye to the old road of the Qiu family, and went down the steps of the mourning hall.

"Let me go in, bow three times and go. Fan Lin still had a smile on his face, and his eyes had cooled.

"You can bow outside. "The boss of the Qiu family did not budge.

"This really doesn't treat me as a human being!" Fan Lin's forehead was bruised.

"If you dare to ruin today's memorial service, the consequences will ...... Think for yourself. The boss of the Qiu family lowered his voice, but he was authentic word by word.

Xiao Zifeng hadn't gone far when a woman's hysterical scream suddenly came from behind him.

At the moment when Xiao Zifeng turned his head, there was already a fight at the door of the mourning hall. The process was quick, and after a while, a figure rolled down the steps.

This scene was a bit terrifying, and the people around were even stunned, and Xiao Zifeng simply stopped.

"Fan Lin, I warned you, you are not allowed to appear at my father's memorial service! You have harmed me all my life, and I still want my father to die without peace, my mother will fight with you today!" a woman yelled.

Fan Lin quickly got up from under the steps, patted the dust on his body with a blue face, pushed away the people who didn't know whether he was here to pull the rack or drive him, and walked to the outside of the funeral home.

The excitement is over. Xiao Zifeng just turned his head, and Leng Buding found that a lady was standing five meters in front of him, seemingly uninterested in the excitement over there, but put him in the focus of his gaze.

When Xiao Zifeng stepped forward, Qiao Fang didn't have any intention of chatting with him, and asked straight to the point: "Which hospital is Lao Guo in?"

Ever since Qiao Fang knew about him and Zhou Yu, Xiao Zifeng felt that this look was too sharp every time he faced Qiao Fang.

"Jincheng People's Hospital. Xiao Zifeng can't help but tell the truth.

"Which ward?" Qiao Fang asked inquiringly.

"Cardiac surgery 16 floors 25 beds. Xiao Zifeng can only know everything.

"Thank you!" Qiao Fang said dryly, turned and left.

Sitting in the car, Xiao Zifeng thought about Qiao Fang's expression just now, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Under a taxi stop sign on the side of the road, Qiao Fang stood there alone.

Xiao Zifeng's car drove past in front of her, and finally stopped.

Getting out of the driver's seat, Xiao Zifeng walked to Qiao Fang's side and cautiously issued an invitation: "If Coach Qiao doesn't mind, I just happen to go to see Uncle Bing." ”

Glancing at Xiao Zifeng, Qiao Fang really didn't mind and walked towards him.

Xiao Zifeng was hesitating whether to pull the car door for Qiao Fang, she had already gone into the back seat by herself.

Not daring to delay at all, Xiao Zifeng hurried back to the car.

"When did this happen?" Qiao Fang thought for a moment and asked Xiao Zifeng.

Xiao Zifeng hurriedly turned his head and replied: "It's been almost a week, and Uncle Bing said that his chest was tight and his back hurt. After the examination, the doctor ordered to be hospitalized immediately, saying that the artery had narrowed again and could not be delayed any longer. ”

Qiao Fang: "......"

"Uncle Bing didn't want you and Zhou Yu to worry, so he didn't allow me to say it, so he didn't inform you. Xiao Zifeng was afraid that he would be misunderstood by Qiao Fang again, so he specially explained.

Qiao Fang still didn't speak, her eyes were lowered, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Xiao Zifeng hesitated for a while, turned his head, and started the car.

"Did the doctor say how to treat it?" after a while, Qiao Fang asked again.

"If you want a heart bypass, it is now in the early stage of treatment, and you can only do surgery when the indicators are stable. Xiao Zifeng replied.

"It's ...... Serious?"

"The arteries were 80% narrowed, and the previous stent didn't work well. "Since it comes to this level, Xiao Zifeng doesn't plan to hide it from Qiao Fang.

Qiao Fang in the back seat, there was no sound, Xiao Zifeng raised his eyes and looked in the rearview mirror, Qiao Fang was looking out of the car window, and couldn't see her expression clearly for a while.

"Thank you for taking care of Lao Guo. Qiao Fang opened her mouth again.

"I should do it!" Xiao Zifeng hurriedly replied.

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Zifeng thought too much about himself, worried that Qiao Fang thought that he was deliberately pretending to be a good person and showing Zhou Yu, and felt that he still had to make it clear: "When I was in the national team, Uncle Bing took care of me very much, and even his departure at that time was partly due to me. So, I was able to do a little bit this time out of gratitude to Uncle Bing. ”

Qiao Fang didn't squeak, and it seemed that she wasn't interested in Xiao Zifeng's words.

Xiao Zifeng was also interested, and immediately shut up again.
