At about a quarter past five in the afternoon, Yumedu hurried home from outside.

As soon as Mengdu entered the house, the mayor's wife, who had been waiting impatiently, said angrily when she saw her son:

"Mengdu, you're finally back? Hurry upstairs, your dad is waiting for you in his study! ”

"What's the matter, called me back in a hurry, did you burn your ass?"

Yumedu walked up to the mayor's wife without any hurry, his words with obvious dissatisfaction.

"Ouch, when has this been, you still don't look serious! Don't ask, hurry up and go upstairs! ”

The mayor's wife glanced at the nanny, who was cooking in the kitchen, and motioned for her son not to ask questions in the living room.

Seeing his mother's mysterious expression, he didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, so he turned around and walked upstairs.

"Hey, wait!"

The mayor's wife shouted behind Mengdu, and then followed her son upstairs, and at the same time lowered her voice and said to Mengdu:

"Liping is still resting in the room, you walk lightly, don't make noise Liping."

"Ahem, what time has it been? She's still resting? Is it pig breeding? ”

The dream disdainfully dismissed the mayor's wife, and strode towards the third floor as usual.

After a while, Mengdu went up to the third floor and walked into Vice Mayor Wang's study, which was occasionally used for office.

"Dad, are you looking for me?"

After entering his father's study, Mengdu saw Vice Mayor Wang sitting on the wicker chair in front of the desk, so he carefully said hello.

"Well, sit down!"

Vice Mayor Wang nodded at his son, then pouted at another wicker chair across from his desk.

Mengdu obediently sat down in the wicker chair opposite his father.

At this time, the mayor's wife also hurriedly followed up with the study.

Vice Mayor Wang glanced at her, frowned and said:

"Xiuhua, what are you doing here? I'm going to talk to Yumedo alone! ”

"Oh, I know. I'm here to serve you tea. ”

As she spoke, the mayor's wife picked up her husband's teacup from the desk, quickly poured a cup of hot tea on the electric kettle, and brought her hands to the table in front of her husband, and then picked up another cup that she usually drank tea from, ready to pour tea for her son.

"Mom, I don't drink water. Go about your business. ”

Mengdu saw his father's straight face, his face was full of seriousness, and he didn't know what was going on, so he took the initiative to ask his mother to leave the study.

"Okay, you father and son talk slowly. I'm gone. Please pay attention, Liping is on the second floor of the room something, don't speak too loudly! ”

Hearing that the dream said not to drink water, the mayor's wife glanced at her husband and found that he did not want her to pour water for her son, so she withdrew from the study and gently closed the door.

"Mengdu, it's been a long time since we've spoken alone. Today, I would like to ask you, in addition to work, what do you do in your spare time? ”

After his wife left, Vice Mayor Wang asked his son.

"Spare time? Didn't do anything! ”

Mengdu looked at his father with two big eyes, but he was wondering in his heart, "What does Dad want to talk to me about today?" ”

"Then do you accompany Liping at home every day?"

Vice Mayor Wang then asked.

"Oh, no."

Mengdu honestly shook his head and said:

Liping is pregnant and can't go out often, and her mother doesn't let her go out casually. Under normal circumstances, I go out with Hao Min, Shi Xiaochun, and some classmates and colleagues to sing and soak my feet, and sometimes I also participate in friends' dinners. ”

Mengdu heard his father ask him if he was at home with his wife, and a stone fell to the ground in his heart.

He thought that his mother blamed him for not spending time with his wife well, and complained to his father in private, so he explained to his father carelessly.

"Mengdu, you said that you are singing outside, soaking your feet, and attending a friend's dinner, and there is nothing wrong with that. I just want to ask, in your spare time, have you done anything illegal or illegal? ”

After listening to his son's explanation, Vice Mayor Wang stopped beating around the corner, and suddenly went straight to the point.

While asking this, Vice Mayor Wang's eyes were staring at his son with a very serious expression.

"Breaking the law? No wow! Dad, who did you listen to say that I violated the law?! Dad, you must tell me, who is behind my rumors? ”

After listening to Vice Mayor Wang's questioning, Mengdu not only did not feel timid, but asked his father loudly.

"Don't ask anyone who made your rumors. I just want you to answer honestly, have you ever done anything illegal in your spare time? ”

Vice Mayor Wang's tone was as strong as a cow when he heard his son's words, not only was he not angry, but he felt a little comforted and happy in his heart!

From the bottom of his heart, Vice Mayor Wang really hopes that his son can flatly deny drug abuse and drug trafficking, and sincerely hopes that his son has nothing to do with drug abuse and drug trafficking.

However, it is suspected that Dream may have drug abuse and drug trafficking, but this is from the mouth of the secretary of the municipal party committee!

And it is unlikely that the secretary of the municipal party committee will say such a thing, and it is impossible to make something out of nothing!

Therefore, Vice Mayor Wang did not dare to easily believe his son's denial just now.

He stared at the dream for a long time, and still said in a very serious tone:

"Mengdu, you are my own son! Today, Dad is talking to you. You know?

If you do something outside, you're going to get your dad involved! Moreover, it will have a very bad impact on society! You should be clear about that.

Now you have a comfortable job, a wonderful family, and good economic conditions. In life, you don't have to worry about food or clothing, you can do whatever you want, you can do whatever you want, it can be said that you live in a sugar jar! In such a happy living environment, you must not have any mistakes! You know? ”

"Ouch, Dad, why do you treat me like a child? Don't worry, dreams won't disgrace Dad! Dad, you don't have anything else to do, right? If nothing else, I'll go first. ”

After saying this, he got up from the wicker chair and prepared to leave.

"Well, Mengdu, don't worry! Dad just said, today, I'm going to talk to you alone very formally and very seriously! Recently, I heard that you have the behavior of taking ecstasy pills, and you tell me honestly, is there such behavior?

Ecstasy pills contain opium and methamphetamine, which is a forbidden drug! Tell you the truth, have you ever taken ecstasy pills in recent times? ”

Vice Mayor Wang didn't want to play dumb riddles with his son, so he directly pointed out the essence of the problem that Secretary Lin told him.

"No, absolutely no ——!"

Unexpectedly, Mengdu actually lengthened his voice and flatly denied it:

"Dad, you ask me if I've ever taken ecstasy pills recently, and I can tell you the truth, in the past, I've occasionally tasted one or two, but it was completely fun, not addictive! You say, how did I not know that ecstasy pills were drugs? Don't worry, Dad, my son won't be so stupid! ”

"Do you really just eat one or two once in a while? Why did I hear that you are still suspected of taking other drugs? ”

In order to confirm whether there is a problem with drug use and drug trafficking, Vice Mayor Wang still chased after his son and asked his son, and his tone became more and more serious.

"I assure the Great Leader that I have only occasionally taken one or two ecstasy pills, and now I am long gone! As for the use of other drugs, it is even more of a no-brainer! Dad, I really don't know, who is talking nonsense in front of you? My son doesn't have any hobbies other than singing, soaking his feet, and drinking. Drugs are definitely not touched. Rest assured! Dad. I can reassure the Great Leader! I can also swear to you and my mother! I don't have anything to do with drugs! ”

As he spoke, he raised his right hand in a fist.

"Mengdu, it's not a question of who you promise and who you swear to. As long as you really don't take drugs, you don't get into drugs! ”

Vice Mayor Wang listened to his son's words categorically and unambiguously, and his heart, which had been hanging, was a little calmer.

Vice Mayor Wang stared at his son for a while, and couldn't see any panicked or lying expressions, so he nodded and said:

"Son, no matter what you like, Dad never interferes. But there is one principle that you must never touch, and that is the word "breaking the law!"

This is the bottom line, and it is also the red line! Today, Dad is very formal and very serious to warn you, you must remember!

Your father is the executive vice mayor of the provincial capital, and he can be regarded as one of the leading figures in the city. If something happens to you, I won't be able to work in the city government, or even in the provincial capital! At the same time, your good days, our royal family's good days, then it will be the end! This big family, which is the envy of many people, will also suffer! You know? ”

Vice Mayor Wang finished the above call almost without breathing.

After a slight pause, Vice Mayor Wang continued:

"Son, you've been working for three or four years now, and your salary is more than four thousand, right? In addition, there are a lot of bonuses and subsidies for the unit, and when you add it up, you will have at least 6,000 or more income per month, right?

All your income, the family never needs a penny, you earn it yourself and spend it yourself, and you should not be short of money in your usual life. Right?

Moreover, when you need to spend money, such as when you get married, and when you buy large furniture and high-end consumer goods, the family will also fully support you.

So, in your daily life, you are never short of money! ”

Speaking of this, Vice Mayor Wang remembered another serious topic mentioned by the secretary of the municipal party committee, that is, the possibility of Mengdu participating in drug trafficking!

Although Secretary Lin specifically stated that there is no conclusive evidence for the time being that Mengdu is involved in drug trafficking.

However, the lack of conclusive evidence for the time being does not mean that there is really no such behavior!

Originally, Vice Mayor Wang wanted to continue to ask Mengdu, in addition to taking the pill that shook his head, did he participate in any drug trafficking activities?

However, when he thought of what his son had just said, "Drugs will definitely not be touched", he felt that if he continued to ask, it would be difficult for his son to get results.

Therefore, while emphasizing the principle of not breaking the law and committing crimes to Mengdu, Vice Mayor Wang deliberately explained an important meaning to his son, which is:

As long as you don't touch the bottom line of breaking the law and committing crimes, your home can meet any of your normal living expenses!

"Dad, you're done with everything you want to ask, right? If nothing else, I'm going out? ”

Mengdu saw that Vice Mayor Wang no longer asked about other things, and was ready to leave again.

"Well, nothing else. Mengdu, anyway, you just remember one thing for me, no matter when and under what circumstances, you are never allowed to touch the bottom line of breaking the law and committing crimes! Acts such as drug abuse, drug trafficking, theft, robbery, fraud, rape, etc., are all red lines that cannot be touched! As long as you don't touch the red lines of these laws, we will satisfy you for anything else, whether it is your father or your family.

However, if you touch the red line and step on the bottom line, all the serious consequences caused will be borne by yourself! When the time comes, don't say that Dad can't help you, but no one in the world can help you! ”

Speaking of which, Vice Mayor Wang once again emphasized his bottom-line constraints on his son.

"Dad, you can put 10,000 hearts! The bottom line you said is the red line of my life, and it is also the bottom line and red line of our whole family! I'm not going to touch it! If nothing else, I'm going out? ”

After the dream was finished, he was ready to go out the door.

"Well, if you want something, you can go first. Get out and call your mom up by the way. ”

Looking at his son's calm expression, Vice Mayor Wang nodded to his son with both suspicion and relief.

"Okay! Thank you Dad! ”

Mengdu happily saluted Vice Mayor Wang and strode out of his father's study.

Mengdu went down from the third floor to the second floor, stood on the staircase on the second floor, and shouted loudly to the living room below:

"Mom——, go upstairs, Dad told you to go to his study!"

"Oh——, coming, coming!"

Hearing her son's shout, and hearing that there was nothing unusual about her son's voice, probably the stone in the mayor's wife's heart also fell to the ground.

She answered her son loudly downstairs.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the mayor's wife walking upstairs step by step.
