Chapter 47: An Unbearable Past
The car was driving slowly on the road, Wu Tianlin sat next to Chen Yukun, but he had been thinking about why Chen Yukun would personally invite him, after the conversation just now, it showed that Liu Yunlong did not tell Chen Yukun his identity, but the other party was indeed the secretary of the municipal party committee of the municipality directly under the central government, he was young, even if it was the incident that night, it was not worth the secretary of the municipal party committee to put down his value and personally invite him to dinner, and his attitude towards himself seemed to be far more warm and cordial than Liu Yunlong.
Although Wu Tianlin was very puzzled at this time, he still replied with a humble face: "Secretary Chen! To tell the truth, I was really angry at the time, and I lost my mind and asked someone to inform the embassy, but I regretted it afterwards, after all, I am from China, and if I cause a diplomatic dispute because of my affairs, then my sin will be great, so I did it to make amends. ”
When Chen Yukun heard Wu Tianlin's words, he immediately smiled and said, "Haha! Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer young people in this society who want to know the general situation like you, and in any case, you are always a victim, and it is natural for you to notify the embassy, so I am here to solemnly say sorry to you! ”
Wu Tianlin heard Chen Yukun's words, and said in a humorous tone: "Secretary Chen! It hasn't been five minutes since I got into your car, but you have said sorry twice in a row, you are the secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, and you are the official of your parents, if you tell me sorry again, I will not be able to eat this dinner tonight. ”
"Good! Good! Good! From now on, don't you stop mentioning the three words sorry, right Xiao Wu! Swedish citizenship is said to be very difficult to join, how can you be a Swedish citizen, are your parents working in Sweden? After the conversation just now, the atmosphere in the car has not become as rusty as before, Chen Yukun knew that the concern between the two had been almost stretched, and began to lead the topic to the main purpose of his appointment with Wu Tianlin tonight.
Hearing Chen Yukun mention his parents, Wu Tianlin's face instantly froze together, thinking of his life experience, a resentment rose in his heart, like a monster devouring his heart, and replied expressionlessly: "I don't have parents, from the day they abandoned me for their own future, in my heart my parents are my master, as for the Swedish country, it was awarded to me by the King of Sweden, but I never admitted it, and it was forced to do that day." ”
Chen Yukun was obviously stunned when he saw Wu Tianlin's expression, but he quickly reacted and comforted him in a humble tone: "Little Doctor Wu! I shouldn't have said sorry to you anymore, but I didn't expect it to cause you a sad thing, so I'm really sorry. ”
When Wu Tianlin heard Chen Yukun's words, he realized that he had lost his temper, and his tone was obviously much softened, and he said, "Secretary Chen! To make you laugh, to be honest, before I didn't know my background, I had always longed to be able to find my parents, but since I learned that my parents abandoned me because of their respective futures, I realized that my longing for many years would be so stupid, maybe I shouldn't have come to this world at all, my parents are educated youths who went south, and they had me when they cut the queue in my hometown, and it turned out that 1976 was also the year I was born, because of the return to the city. The two of them abandoned me so ruthlessly, and if it weren't for my master who adopted me and raised me as an adult, it's hard to say whether I would have lived in this world now. ”
When Chen Yukun heard Wu Tianlin's words, his heart was overturned, obviously Wu Tianlin's story was very familiar to him, but in that era, things like Wu Tianlin didn't happen often, so he couldn't be sure whether Wu Tianlin was the person he was looking for, so he continued to guide: "Little Doctor Wu! I also came from that era, and there were many things that your generation could never have imagined, and I am also a father, and I believe that no parent would give up their children, and I guess they may have some last resort at that time. ”
Wu Tianlin glanced up at Chen Yukun and replied expressionlessly, "Secretary Chen!" Maybe you have a point, but no matter what the good reason, since they brought me into this world, why did they abandon me so ruthlessly, if it is really as you say, more than 20 years have passed, but who has come to me? Wasn't there once such a song? The beautiful Xishuangbanna can't keep my parents and Huhai so big, there is my home, my father is a home, my mother is a home, and I seem to be superfluous to be left alone, since I am superfluous in their eyes, then I don't need to go to them again. When Wu Tianlin said this, he realized that he was too excited, and hurriedly said to Chen Yukun: "Secretary Chen! I'm sorry! I was so excited just now. ”
Hearing Wu Tianlin's words, Chen Yukun wanted to know the answer to the riddle even more, he smiled and replied, "It's okay, it's okay, Doctor Wu!?" I didn't expect it to remind you of those unhappy things, if people hide this thing in their hearts, they will only let themselves live depressed, according to what you just said, it seems that you know the names of your parents or know where they are, but since you have said it, just treat me as a listener, and vent all the resentment in your heart, maybe then you will feel better. ”
"Thank you, Secretary Chen! In fact, I do know the names of my parents, and my mother's name is only one word different from your name, her name is Chen Yumei, my father's name is Wu Guorui, when they abandoned me, they left me a jade pendant, and my name is the master according to the word Tianlin on the jade pendant, although I don't know where they are now, if I want to find them, I can go to the city government to find the list of educated youth, I believe that they can easily find their place of origin from there, but I didn't check it, The fact that they were able to abandon me ruthlessly shows that in their hearts I am just a superfluous person, so why should I have nothing to do, besides, it is enough for me to have a master alone, so what's the point of looking for them. After venting, Wu Tianlin obviously calmed down, perhaps because Chen Yukun's previous words enlightened him, or because he really needed an audience for him to vent the secrets he suppressed in his heart, so he slowly told Chen Yukun about his unbearable life experience.
"Chen Yumei! Wu Guorui! These two names are simply too familiar to Chen Yukun, a mystery that he has always wanted to uncover, but when the mystery was revealed, Chen Yukun was worried, he who has never shown joy and anger on his face, at this time his face unconsciously showed a worried expression, he looked at the young man around him who was seven points like him, and several times the words reached his mouth, but he still swallowed it.
