It was easy to explain to the airport security personnel, and when I returned to the parking lot, the driver, Master Wang, had already gone back, thinking that he was going to pick up the other members of the task force. Zhao Changfeng listlessly took a taxi back to the compound of the Administration of Organ Affairs.

It was already the end of May, the weather in Zhongzhou was extremely hot, due to the influence of mood, Zhao Changfeng felt dry mouth, so he went to the store near the compound to buy a bottle of cold drink to quench his thirst, he found that there was a huge refrigerator in the store, which was the kind of 360-liter Yufei brand refrigerator produced by his custom mold. Could it be that the cadres of the Agency Affairs Bureau sent the refrigerator to the store or did it give it to the store cheaply?

"Boss, your big refrigerator is good, huh? Where is it sold? Zhao Changfeng asked while paying the bill.

The little shopkeeper who was smiling brightly at Zhao Changfeng just now suddenly looked like water, and he muttered, "Where did it come from?" Zhongzhou City Appearance Office let me buy it. ”

"How much?"

"Four thousand!"

Zhao Changfeng was taken aback and said, "Boss, isn't a large-capacity freezer less than two thousand yuan?" For those of you who sell cold drinks, they're a lot more convenient to use than this big refrigerator, right? ”

The little boss sighed and said, "I don't want to buy this turtle grandson refrigerator either!" One of these turtle grandson things is only 4,000 yuan, robbery! But I can't buy it. If you don't buy the city, you won't let us sell cold drinks! ”

"Why don't you sell cold drinks if you don't buy them?" Zhao Changfeng asked in surprise.

The small boss said: "The staff of the City Appearance Office said that in order to welcome the Zhongzhou Shaolin International Martial Arts Festival and improve the image of Zhongzhou City in front of Chinese and foreign guests, all stores selling cold drinks must uniformly purchase this large-capacity refrigerator uniformly ordered by the Zhongzhou City Appearance Office in Yufei Refrigerator Factory, and if you don't buy this refrigerator, you will not be qualified to sell cold drinks, otherwise once it is found by the City Appearance Office, it will be fined 5,000 to 10,000 yuan, and it will be closed for rectification!" I couldn't afford to mess with the turtle grandsons in the city appearance office, so I had to spend money to buy this turtle grandson thing! ”

Zhao Changfeng didn't know what to say after hearing this, he shook his head and walked away silently. At this moment, Zhao Changfeng couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart. He originally thought that after his careful design, Cai Daming was caught by him, but he didn't expect that it was these vendors who ran small shops in Zhongzhou City who were put into it in the end. Yes, Cai Daming's father is the executive vice mayor of Zhongzhou City, and he can grandly use the name of welcoming the Shaolin International Martial Arts Festival to ask the City Appearance Office to issue an order, ordering all the shops selling cold drinks in Zhongzhou City to buy a 360-liter refrigerator in a uniform manner. For Cai Daming, as long as his father's ass is still sitting in the position of deputy mayor, many things can be done as long as he moves his mouth, which is very easy, and he doesn't need to think about how to solve and deal with any difficulties like Zhao Changfeng.

Zhao Changfeng returned to the office of the Audit Section in high spirits. Section Chief Zuo walked over, patted Zhao Changfeng on the shoulder and said, "Section Chief Zhao, hehe, don't think so much. This is the case with auditing, as long as we do our best and have a clear conscience. ”

Zhao Changfeng smiled and said to Section Chief Zuo: "Section Chief Zuo, I'm fine." ”

"Hehe, I'll invite Corey's colleagues to dinner after work, and it can be regarded as a pick-up for you and Lao Zhang, okay?" Section Chief Zuo said with a smile.

Zhao Changfeng shook his head and said, "Section Chief Zuo, let's change the day." Today I am a little unwell and want to take a break. ”

Section Chief Zuo nodded and said, "It's okay!" There's nothing going on with Corey today, you go back and rest first, recover your spirits, and tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, let's go out and get together together. ”

Zhao Changfeng leaned back in his chair and sorted out the things in his desk, and was about to go back.

"Yo, Section Chief Zhao, are you back? During your absence, your sister came to you every day, and she came yesterday. Didn't you explain to your sister when you were on a business trip? Section Chief Jin said.

Zhao Changfeng's heart tightened, it turned out that during the time he left, Ling'er came to look for him every day! Poor little girl!

Zhao Changfeng felt uncomfortable in his heart, and he had to answer Section Chief Jin's words with a strong smile in his mouth: "Well, I only explained to my parents." She was my cousin, and I forgot to explain it for a while. ”

Section Chief Jin smiled: "Oh, so that's it? I said so! By the way, Section Chief Zhao, your cousin left a letter and asked me to wait for you to come back and hand it over to you. ”

As he spoke, Section Chief Jin opened the drawer, took out a letter, and handed it to Zhao Changfeng.

Zhao Changfeng took it and looked at it, and there were four big characters on the envelope: Zhao Changfeng (receiving). It is the familiar pen style of the little girl Ling'er, but although the handwriting is beautiful, it is not the lightness and liveliness contained in Ling'er's handwriting, but it has a more dignified and depressing atmosphere. Zhao Changfeng shook his head gently, maybe Ling'er's handwriting has not changed, but his mood has changed, so he thinks the little girl's handwriting has changed, right?

Zhao Changfeng took the paper cutter, carefully inserted it into the gap of the seal, and opened the seal little by little. His movements are gentle and slow, as if he were a framer and an expert in the restoration of cultural relics. This was the only thing Ling'er had left him, and he couldn't bear to let this letter be damaged in the slightest, even if it was the envelope containing the letter outside.

Inside there was only a thin piece of letterhead, folded into the shape of a heart. Judging from the creases, Ling'er was very careful and careful when folding this letterhead, but somehow, the shape of the heart that was folded out in the end was not completed, and there was an obvious gap in the middle, could it be that Ling'er wanted to tell Zhao Changfeng in this way that her heart was hurt?

The letterhead is very thick and you can see that it is carefully selected high-quality letterhead. Zhao Changfeng opened it gently, and the front of the letterhead was a clean pale yellow, and on it was Ling'er's familiar handwriting:

Brother, I'm sorry!

I really didn't mean to!

I didn't expect that my temporary surname would cause you so much harm!

Brother, your colleague said you were on a business trip, but I don't believe it at all!

You must be avoiding me, right?

Because even if you're on a business trip, you should be able to receive a pager from me, and you should call me back!

Brother, you know what? I went to Westdis Hall a few times later to get an explanation from that sister. But every time I went to the disco, the people in the disco said that my sister was not there. Maybe my sister is here, she's the same as you, she doesn't want to see me.

Brother, really, really, really sorry! I hurt you!

Brother, I came here today to tell you that I will never come back to bother you in the future. My mom has already contacted Stanford University, and I've already got my visa and I'm going to the United States tomorrow to study.

I know I'll see you this time like I've done so many times before, and I still won't see you. But I'm not disappointed, I just have to go to your office and see where you work, and I'll be satisfied.

When I'm in the U.S., I remember that I used to live in the city where you lived, and I felt happy when I breathed the air you once breathed.

Okay, brother, I won't say more, you'll be upset if you talk too much, right?

Brother, I still want to ask you for a favor in the end, and when you meet that big sister, can you apologize to her for me? Tell her that I really didn't mean to hurt her.

Ling Er on May 29, 1996.

Zhao Changfeng is not the kind of person with shallow eye sockets who is easily moved, but after reading Ling'er's letter, Zhao Changfeng's eyes were blurred. He hurriedly raised his head to the sky and took a deep breath before suppressing the surging emotions in his chest and letting the moist eyes gradually cool.

After a long while, Zhao Changfeng lowered his head again and looked at the letterhead in his hand.

The letterhead is light and elegant, showing a clean pale yellow, and a slight hint of light pink, in the corner of the letterhead, there are a few soft blue forget-me-nots hiding there, as if to tell Zhao Changfeng for Ling'er that he wants to send the full heart that cannot be sent.

On the letterhead, there are several circular wrinkles, like withered flowers, echoing the blue forget-me-not hidden in the corner of the letterhead. Zhao Changfeng knew that this should be the tear stains that fell on the letterhead when Ling'er wrote the letter. He gently touched the tear stains on the letterhead with his hand, as if touching the little girl's tear-filled eyes. Zhao Changfeng didn't know what kind of heartache the little girl was writing this letter.

Zhao Changfeng carefully put away the letter, he suddenly had an impulse, to go to the old man Zhang Changsuo's house immediately, to ask the old man Zhang Changsuo Ling'er's every move in the past two months, maybe only in this way can his heart be a little more peaceful.

When he arrived at Zhang Changsuo's old man's house, Zhao Changfeng sorted out his emotions, forced out a casual smile and knocked on the door.

"Oh, Changfeng, where have you been all this time? But I'm going to think bad about your grandfather! Liu Cuilian saw that it was Zhao Changfeng coming over and said happily.

"Hehe, I'm on a business trip! What about Grandpa, where is he? Zhao Changfeng said with a smile.

"Changfeng, I thought you forgot about grandpa! No news for more than two months! The old man Zhang Changsuo sat on the sofa and beckoned to Zhao Changfeng: "Come, come and sit here grandpa!" ”
