Chapter Eighty-Four: Is It Your Daughter?
Whether it is the LED electronic screen on the high-rise building, or the rolling news video broadcast on the major websites, they are all telling the same thing, that is, Wei Yuxi's press conference.
The girl on the screen looks graceful and moving, a pair of smart big eyes seem to be full of stories, she does not flinch from the reporter's questions, and answers seriously without pleasure or slowness, the questions go from shallow to deep, and finally someone can't help but want to mention the boiling state cadres involved in pornography some time ago.
"Hello, Miss Wei! I am a reporter from H City Daily, and I would like to ask, what is your relationship with Mr. Tan Xiyao of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? In addition, as far as I know, a recent indecent video with a super high hit rate on the Internet 'heroine' is you! How does Ms. Wei explain this? Such a sharp question is a direction that all reporters want to dig into after meeting Gu Xi himself, and only a leading newspaper like H City Daily has the confidence to raise it.
Gu Xi glanced at the female reporter at the base, and after a moment of silence, she finally spoke slowly, "I have also seen that short-lived video on the Internet, for which I want to apologize to my fiancΓ©, Mr. Tan Xiyao, it was my momentary negligence that led to the exposure of such an unsightly video." β
The female reporter continued to ask: "If this is the case, why didn't Mr. Tan Xiyao answer this question positively before, I think there must be another hidden story here, right?" β
"You're right, I asked him to do it. This is a private matter between us, and that's all I can answer. Gu Xi felt that her palms were in a cold sweat, her heart was beating suddenly, she put down the microphone and pretended to be calm and walked off the stage, Yin Moqian took two steps forward to support her, "I'll send you back to the hospital." The long standing seemed to open the wound on her leg again, and the blood was flowing down a white calf to her ankle, and she was shocked.
*************************
In a family courtyard of a military region, Li Minyun said pleading while making the bed: "See if you can use your relationship to reduce Xi Jin's sentence, I went to visit him in prison some time ago, and he is not as thin as a good person." β
Tan Tianxiao is a soldier with the quality of a soldier who is upright, not to mention that he is not an ordinary military cadre, but the chief of the general staff of the country, how can he bend the law for personal gain and cause such an unhealthy trend, he looks like he hates iron but not steel, "I won't blink an eye when he dies in prison, and the son of a soldier shouldn't be like this." β
This sentence obviously angered Li Minyun, "He is your son, why can you pull down your old face and beg others to help Xi Yao erase that disgraceful file, you can't do something for your youngest son." β
"Do you know that your son is skinny like that because he is taking drugs in prison, and he used my relationship to threaten the warden to give him marijuana and drugs, do you think your son can still be saved?"
Li Minyun was a little incredulous, her hand holding the futon trembled, and she muttered to herself, "He takes drugs? No one sued me. β
"This is the good son you raised."
"You still complain about me, you don't know if you can go home once a year, you are in the army all day, have you ever cared about Xijin?"
Tan Tianxiao was silent for a moment, and his face fell, "For the country, for the people, it is worth sacrificing anything, not to mention my son, even my life, I will not hesitate to give it." β
"It's your country and it's your people. If it were that woman pleading like this in front of you, would you still say such a thing? β
"Don't mention her." Tan Tianxiao's face froze, and he said it crisply.
The two quarreled again because of Tan Xijin, the atmosphere was stiff, and suddenly a phone call came in, Li Minyun wiped a handful of tears and put down the futon in her hand to answer the phone, and after a while, she took the phone into the bedroom, stuffed it into Tan Tianxiao's hand, and said angrily, "Looking for you." β
"Old Tan, you're really not embarrassed, Xiyao's child is about to have a daughter-in-law, and you still beg me to introduce your daughter to him all day long, but fortunately I haven't told my girl yet."
"How so? Old Hu, don't listen to those gossips. β
"What kind of gossip, you searched for 'Wei Yuxi' on the Internet, isn't it your family's prospective daughter-in-law? The girls all admitted so boldly at the press conference, they are young and beautiful, where is my daughter compared! "There was obvious sarcasm on the other end of the line.
"Well, no one compares to Lulu, she's the best female soldier I've ever met. Let me ask Xi Yao about this, and I will definitely give you and Lulu an explanation. β
"Forget it, Lao Tan, it's not like no one wants my daughter." After a sentence, only the sound of "beep" remained on the phone.
Tan Tianxiao's resolute face, which had been carved by time, was even more solemn, he walked to the study and pressed the computer boot button, when the screen lit up, he entered the name "Wei Yuxi" in the search bar, and the surname was "Wei", he sighed gloomily.
Although the computer operation seems a little clumsy, but still found a video, the state requires soldiers to keep pace with the times to learn the electronic network, and he is barely able to do some simple operations.
opened a video, he waited with a calm face for the "prospective daughter-in-law" that Lao Hu said, but the moment Gu Xi on the screen stepped onto the podium, Tan Tianxiao seemed to be petrified in an instant, he had experienced countless ups and downs, but there was no moment when he could get out of control like now, he stared at Gu Xi on the screen, that eye, that nose, and that mouth were all like a person, a woman he would never want to erase her face and couldn't remember, but he never really forgot for a moment, her name was Gu Qihua.
Tan Tianxiao pressed the pause button, his heart grabbed the army-green clothes on his chest as if he couldn't bear it, and his breath became short, "Is it your daughter?" Is it, Qihua? β
Hiding behind the door of the study and secretly looking at the scene inside, Li Minyun had to run in to appease her husband's feelings even if she hated that woman again, it turned out that the woman he couldn't forget was called Gu Qihua, and she heard the news about that woman from his mouth for the first time, "The medicine is here, hurry up and take it." She took out the pill from the drawer and gave it to him, and Tan Tianxiao's breathing slowly stabilized, "Go...... Go and call Tan Xiyao home for me, immediately. β
