Chapter 20 A phone call

"From now on, your wife will continue to be spoiled, my girlfriend will be maintained by myself, let's return to the bridge, return to the road, just as if nothing happened, everyone will be peaceful and friendly strangers." Tang Hongye didn't see the kind of hope in Hou Changsheng's eyes, but Hou Changsheng's reaction made him feel particularly disappointed.

In this regard, Tang Hongye no longer knows what to say, from the age of twelve or thirteen to the present in his twenties, for the first time in more than ten years, he feels that this good buddy of his heart is not the same person as the one he has always remembered, and even gave him a very strong sense of strangeness.

After saying this, the chorus of Du Juan and a few female classmates over there had just ended, and Tang Hongye threw Hou Changsheng, who also had an ugly face, aside and walked towards Du Juan.

Rushing to find Cuckoo at such a juncture, Tang Hongye's behavior is tantamount to "throwing himself into the net", so it is not surprising that he was pulled by those female classmates, and he had to sing a classic love song with Cuckoo in duet, otherwise it would not be finished, fortunately, although Tang Hongye did not receive any professional guidance, he had a naturally good voice, and the pitch of his singing was also good, so he did not have special stage fright, and the two of them sang a duet love song according to the requirements of other coaxing classmates, and they had not practiced beforehand, The singing effect was unexpectedly good, and won the applause of a group of students.

After making trouble for a long time, when the topic and attention finally shifted to other classmates, Du Juan and Tang Hongye breathed a sigh of relief, Tang Hongye looked around, but didn't see Hou Changsheng, I don't know if he went to the bathroom or left in advance by himself.

"What's wrong with you and Hou Changsheng?" Du Juan took two bottles of mineral water and handed one of them to Tang Hongye, although the two of them are now on vacation, but drinking is that kind of thing, drinking pleasantly, greedy cup hurts the body, Tang Hongye has already drunk a lot at the dinner, and after coming here, he opened a can of beer, and now he should be a little drunk, so Du Juan brought him some water to drink, "Just now when I was singing with Xiao Yuan and a few of them, I saw that the two of you had been chatting, as if ...... The face is not quite right. ”

"What a look in your eyes! So far away, and the light in the room is so hazy, you can see it? Tang Hongye smiled bitterly, Du Juan's concern reminded him of Fang Cai Hou Changsheng's attitude, and couldn't help but make him feel aggrieved for Du Juan, there are many people here and noisy, it is not the right time to say this, so he just faced Du Juan's concern, and with the strength of wine, he reached out and rubbed Du Juan's cheek a few times.

This action was inconspicuous, but it carried an indescribable intimacy, and Tang Hongye's gaze was a little scorching, which made Du Juan feel a little uncomfortable all of a sudden, and hurriedly glanced around.

"Ouch, don't make trouble, we're going to be coaxed again when we are seen!" Du Juan could guess her current face from the heat on her face, but fortunately, the light in the box could not show that her face was red and red, so she just pulled Tang Hongye's hand down and pinched it as a warning.

"If you coax, you will coax, anyway, you are either envious of you, or jealous of me!" Tang Hongye said with a smile.

"For so many years, you have actually had one thing that far surpassed me, and I can't catch up with it anyway." Du Juan pinched Tang Hongye's palm, "Your skin is definitely thicker than mine." ”

Tang Hongye laughed, this time it was not a deliberate smile, but he was really amused by the cuckoo.

"You and Hou Changsheng...... Or is it because of the incident with his wife and children before? Du Juan saw that Tang Hongye was actually a little lonely, after all, the two had known each other for many years, so she could probably guess the causes and consequences behind Tang Hongye's emotions.

Tang Hongye didn't speak, in this matter, he had a sense of guilt about Du Juan, because if the initiator at that time was replaced by someone else with a very general relationship, he would definitely have a seizure on the spot, and he would defend Du Juan to the end no matter what, but at that time, in his opinion, it was his good brother who had been caught in the middle for more than ten years, so he had a glimmer of hope, gave Hou Changsheng a little face, and waited for the other party to apologize to Du Juan later, and even made compensation, but he didn't expect that the person who had been friends for more than ten years was missing. In fact, there is only him, and Hou Changsheng's choice is to sacrifice the interests of Du Juan to protect his wife and children.

Hou Changsheng's choice is disappointing, but Tang Hongye feels that the person who disappoints him even more is actually himself, Hou Changsheng knows that he first chooses to list his women and children as the primary object of protection when his wife and children are at a loss, and what about himself? But at the first time, I wanted to preserve friendship and love, and the direct result in the end was that the friendship was disappointing, and I was ashamed of my beloved girlfriend.

As soon as he thought of this, Tang Hongye felt that it was not a taste to mention it in his heart.

Seeing that Tang Hongye didn't speak, Du Juan only thought that he was embarrassed because of that incident, Hou Changsheng didn't take the initiative to come over and say something to the two of them this night, until he came here, and only then did he find an opportunity to mutter a few words to Tang Hongye, and now it seems that although he doesn't know what the two of them talked about, just looking at Tang Hongye's face, he also knows that the communication must not be very smooth.

"Actually, I think that this kind of thing, a clear conscience is the most important, and angering others can't change the truth of things, right?" She sighed softly, "If I don't mind at all, and I'm not angry, it's too fake, don't say it's you, I don't believe this statement myself." However, his wife is not our classmate, and as long as I don't want to, I can never have to meet his wife and two children again. There is nothing for you and Hou Changsheng to contact as usual, as long as I don't meet his wife, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. ”

"Impossible," Tang Hongye shook his head, and categorically interrupted Du Juan's words, the more Du Juan said this, the more guilty he became, and the more firm he was in the decision he had just made, "The so-called husband and wife are one, two people together, whether it is the stakes, or the views and positions, they are the same." When Hou Changsheng's wife first said those things and did those things, if Hou Changsheng didn't know in advance, it can be said that those who don't know are not to blame, but then he knew how unreasonable his wife was, and chose to let me settle down, which shows that he voluntarily chose to cover up his wife's behavior, so since the two of them are from the same country at all, it is reasonable to treat them according to the same standards. ”

After finishing speaking, he sighed again and said to the cuckoo: "I'm sorry, I didn't handle this matter well, I should defend your ...... on the spot"

"There's nothing wrong with this now, you can basically see from Hou Changsheng's wife's way of thinking, this is not a reasonable master, if we come to quarrel with them at that time, you may not be able to quarrel with them on the basis of reason, and then you will be unjustly angry." Du Juan could see that Tang Hongye was really very regretful and very self-blaming, so he shook his head at him, "There's no need, anyway, they won't have any reason to harass us in the future, one less quarrel, less anger, and nothing bad, how you want to treat Hou Changsheng in the future, just find your will." ”

"Well, don't worry, I know it." Tang Hongye sighed, "I will never allow this kind of thing to happen a second time, I can still guarantee this." ”

In such a noisy and lively environment, there was not much time left for the two of them to talk, and soon other classmates came to joke with them and coax, so the topic of Hou Changsheng came to an end here, and there was no further discussion.

That night, a group of people made a fuss until the early hours of the morning before finally ending the first day of the carnival of this class reunion when most of them were already very tired, Tang Hongye drank alcohol, so the cuckoo came to drive, and the two people returned to their residences were also very tired, washed hastily, and went back to their rooms to rest, and woke up when it was close to noon the next day, cuckoo was okay, in the past, because of the investigation of cases, he often worked overtime all night, so as long as he slept enough, he was still refreshed, Tang Hongye didn't get drunk the day before, but he also came back with a drunkenness, plus it was already three or four o'clock in the morning when he fell asleep.

Fortunately, the students who arranged the daily itinerary before were still more thoughtful, thinking that the day before would not end very early, and many people would drink and the like, so the next day's schedule only started after lunch, which also gave Tang Hongye a little time to recuperate, and when he and Du Juan set off to the meeting place, they returned to their usual refreshed appearance.

This half-day is mainly a garden tour, and then of course, there is a dinner party in the evening. When visiting the garden, Hou Changsheng came with his wife and children again, Tang Hongye and Du Juan did not go to greet Hou Changsheng's family, and both parties tacitly chose a farther seat on the bus. In the process of visiting the garden, Hou Changsheng's two children were still noisy as always, and Hou Changsheng's wife was still in good spirits, talking with some female classmates in the class very well, and laughing loudly along the way.

It was Hou Changsheng, who had a black face all the way, as if he was not in a good mood, if it weren't for the fact that Tang Hongye and Du Juan inadvertently saw that Hou Changsheng's wife also stretched a face when talking to Hou Changsheng, frowning and gritting her teeth a little bit I don't know what to say to him, and then I turned my head and went to talk to others with a smile on my face, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found any clues.

Dare to love this is a conflict between the two of them? Du Juan looked at Tang Hongye with some doubts, and gave him a questioning look, Tang Hongye shrugged, looked disinterested, pointed out the window and asked Du Juan to look at the scenery outside, and said something else, and then turned the inadvertent discovery over.

In fact, Tang Hongye knew what Du Juan's doubts were, she must have had a conflict with his wife in Caihou Changsheng, whether it was because of the conversation with Tang Hongye before. Tang Hongye also guessed this possibility, but he didn't care much about the answer to this question, because in his opinion, Hou Changsheng had already expressed his views and positions very clearly at that time, even if he went back and had any conflicts and disputes with his wife because of that incident, it would be useless, so why waste time guessing this meaningless thing?

The end of the day is in a farmhouse in the far suburbs of City A, the students who are responsible for arranging the activities have booked a room and meals here, a group of old students can have dinner here, rest, play cards, the farmhouse has a greenhouse, there are cats, dogs, chickens and ducks, and there is a large indoor fish pond, which can be used for fishing, which is very suitable for relaxation and leisure.

Because it is a farmhouse, the space of the eating place is naturally not as good as the small banquet hall booked the day before, so a large group of old classmates spontaneously divided into four tables and ate in four different rooms, and there are more than ten people at each table, so the atmosphere is still very warm overall.

Tang Hongye and Du Juan were not in the same room as Hou Changsheng, but when Tang Hongye went to the bathroom halfway, he passed by one of the rooms, and from the window, he could see that Hou Changsheng was fighting with others at the wine table inside, with red faces and red ears, relying on the fact that the room was burning very warm, already shirtless, and his posture looked quite heroic.

Tang Hongye is a fitness enthusiast, so his eating habits on weekdays have always been relatively healthy, he drank a lot of wine the day before, and he still had some stamina when he got up the next morning, so he consciously chose to drink at dinner this night, and firmly refused the persuasion of other male classmates.

Not to mention Cuckoo, who is the one who rarely drinks outside.

It was noisy in the middle of the night, because the rooms in the farmhouse were generally larger, and the number was not very large, so everyone took gender as a distinction, and voluntarily set up roommates in the male and female dormitories, and went back to their rooms to sleep, because there were more people, they ate late, and it was a bit messy, so many things were not taken care of.

Until the next day's return, it was another day of reunion, and another day passed, that is, the end of this class reunion, on the fifth day of everyone's reunion, Tang Hongye suddenly received a phone call.
