We walked hand in hand on the concrete road leading to the school gate.

"You have to believe me on this," I looked ahead, unable to tell what it was, "I won't like Ai Sadako, let alone Ai Sadako's social connections, and if I could, I would only like you." ”

"Is this a confession?" Ding Ying, like me, just looked ahead and walked forward with my steps.

"I don't know yes or no. I'm expressing my true feelings, because I'm afraid I'm not qualified to say that. I don't know what kind of arrangement God will give me. ”

"What do you mean?" Ding Ying subconsciously approached me.

"The meat ring on my hand is not innate." I decided to talk to Ding Ying about the root cause.

"I wasn't born with it, when did I come here?"

"I ...... when I was thirteen"

I told Ding Ying in detail what happened when I was thirteen years old, and in the end I couldn't help but squat down on the side of the road. The corners of the eyes have long been blurred.

Ding Ying didn't rush to say anything, maybe she was shocked by my experience, maybe she was thinking about something else. She walked back and forth around me four or five times, then bent down to help me up, "Let's go back." ”

"It's been eleven years since we parted," we got off-campus, "and I can't remember Hao Junqi clearly, even though I tell her goodnight every night before going to bed." ”

"That's what you meant when you told me if you could. Your previous relationship experiences have taught you that God may try to stop you from every relationship you made in order to keep the promise you made when you were thirteen. ”

I don't speak.

"And Hao Junqi's life and death are uncertain," Ding Ying continued, "Or, even if Hao Junqi is still alive, it seems that she will never appear by your side, although you still miss it, but the new feelings cannot be stopped, because people need feelings to live." The source of human affection never withers. ”

"You even think," Ding Ying stretched out her other hand to grab my other hand, "If you indulge your feelings, and at this time Hao Junqi suddenly appears beside you, she is still thinking about it, you are afraid that you don't know how to choose." ”

"No, I haven't thought about that," I really haven't thought about it. "I didn't think about it when I had a relationship with Xiong Yanfei. What I'm afraid of is that Hao Junqi and I will never meet again in our lives. ”

"Zheng Qihang, I speculated so, if there is really such a thing as the flesh ring spirit you are talking about, it means that God is still maintaining your promise, which means that Hao Junqi is still there, which means that you and Hao Junqi will still meet." Ding Ying stared at me.

"I've thought about it many times."

"But time always denies your assumptions, doesn't it?"

I nodded. "In the face of a long period of time, the truth is actually nothingness."

"Then let's put it aside completely and let our hearts go," Ding Ying clenched my hands, "Zheng Qihang, I am willing to accompany you, even if I become a supernatural experiment." ”

"How can I bear that?" Tears fell from my eyes.

"I do. I still say the same thing, if our feelings are sincere, we will always move God, if God wants to maintain your promise, then I, Zheng Qihang, I am willing to wait. ”

"You're willing to wait, what do you mean?" Now it's my turn to ask Ding Ying rhetorically.

"I'm waiting for you to fulfill your promise. I'm waiting for you to renew your relationship with Hao Junqi. If your bond is still there, if you get rid of the supernatural and love each other when you meet, then I will bless you deeply. If your bond is still there, but Hao Junqi is married, and even has children, and the promise does not need to be maintained, then please return to me. ”

"Ding Ying—" I finally couldn't hold back my tears.

……

That night's conversation was of "epoch-making" significance to the relationship between me and Ding Ying. The knots between me and Ding Ying were completely eliminated. Ding Ying's suspicions about me were also dispelled.

Of course, our relationship has also strengthened as a result.

I don't think about the flesh ring and the supernatural thing about the meat ring anymore. As Ding Ying said, everything is casual.

On the emotional path, God knows what God has for me.

Since everything is unknown, why not be casual?

Whether you can love it or not, it's all up to the future.

That night, we also planned to run for Ding Ying's father's activities. However, when we talked about it, we had already sent Ding Ying to our rented house.

Chu Huoyu had already slept. The soft sound of her falling asleep came from my bedroom. Ding Ying and I smiled.

Why did Chu Huoyu and I exchange sleeping places, Chu Huoyu must have told Ding Ying about it, but we didn't mention it before.

We sat on the sofa together and planned to run for Ding Ying's father's activities.

Ding Ying's father is now being held in a detention center in the Beikeng district. The detention center is called the Beikeng Detention Center.

Beikeng, like Hua'an and Huangbai, is a prefecture-level city, but it is the closest prefecture-level city to the provincial capital.

I don't know why the government detained Ding Ying's father there.

Investigation and interrogation in other places are all necessary. However, for Ding Ying's father, this is really redundant. Because, as soon as the discipline inspection department intervened in the investigation, Ding Ying's father confessed.

Indeed, Ding Ying's father received a painting.

The painting was sent to the people, and they were detained in Beikeng, where they waited for the prosecution of the procuratorate and the verdict of the court.

There are two tasks in the current activity, one is to "get close" to the people in the Beikeng Detention Center, in order to "treat" Ding Ying's father who is detained inside; This is the common wish of the Ding family.

Ding Ying's father has never suffered any sins except for the hardships of farming when he was a child. Especially after marrying Ding Ying's mother, her career is getting better and better, facing the flattery of others, eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and wearing famous brands, especially the more than ten years as the principal of Huangbai Normal College, which is extremely luxurious.

Suddenly detained in a detention center, not to mention the physical pain, it is difficult to deal with the mental torture alone.

Therefore, it is very important to "get close" to the people who oppress him, so that those people can be as gentle as possible, a little more caring, and a little more considerate to him.

The second is to find out, or determine, which procuratorate will prosecute Ding Ying's father. The person who was detained in the Beikeng Detention Center was not necessarily prosecuted by the Beikeng Procuratorate against Ding Ying's father.

The Provincial Procuratorate has to think about this.

For the sake of justice, let's be fair.

In this way, the family of the offender was killed in a hurry. If you don't know which procuratorate it is, it's hard to find someone.

Finding someone is a must. Whether it's useful or not, you have to find it. Whether it's related or not, look for it. Even if it's just for psychological comfort.

Social reality is sometimes so frustrating.

But finding someone is a university question. If you find the wrong person, the money goes, the energy is spent, the matter is small, and it does not help the offender, so it is a big deal.

And there are always a lot of such egg-like people in society, who have no ability, but they like to make trouble everywhere, and they don't want anything else, just the money of the offender. As for whether they can help, they don't care. At that time, just find a reason to prevaricate.

So, the key is to find the right person.

And what kind of people are the right people? It's like a girl who wants to marry the right person, but how many girls marry the right person?

The general thinking is that wherever the procuratorate prosecutes, it will find the person in charge there. Doesn't it mean that the county officials are not as good as the current management? Of course, it would be better to be able to find the Attorney General. But in such a sensitive case, the chief prosecutor generally does not intervene. It's often the minions at the bottom that work more.

"So, what I urgently need to know now is where the prosecutor's office prosecuted my father." Ding Ying said.

"Why don't you just go to someone from the provincial prosecutor's office?" I present my opinion.

"Looking for someone from the provincial prosecutor's office?"

"All local prosecutors are subordinate organs of the provincial prosecutor's office. Which local procuratorate leader dares not to listen to the provincial procuratorate? Unless he doesn't want to do it. I said.

"You mean that as long as the leadership of the provincial procuratorate is identified, it doesn't matter which local procuratorate prosecutes my father, as long as he intervenes, it will be very helpful to my father's case."

"Yes."

"Not bad, not bad. That's a really good idea. Zheng Qihang, your thinking of seeking differences is so good. Ding Ying was very excited. It was as if her father could be spared from prison because of this. However, the gloomy cloud soon covered Ding Ying's face again, "The question is, who do we know in such a high-level place as the Provincial Procuratorate?" ”

"That's okay for now," I said, "just clear direction." Social relations are so complicated, and the people in the provincial procuratorate are also people in society. Our priority is to go to the North Pit, get in touch with the person who cares about your father, and complete the first task. ”

"Okay."

The next morning, Ding Ying and Chu Huoyu came to the book house early. Xu Zhengping and Cao Shuigen also appeared at about the same time. We went to the cafeteria together for breakfast.

On the way, Xu Zhengping made a report to me on the external business situation of the telephone. The profitability is not as good as we think, mainly because many people are not aware of this service yet. Of course, there is another reason, the vast majority of people do not have the habit of using pay phones.

I comforted Xu Zhengping that the telephone business will only get better and better, and the key is to do a good job in service and charge reasonably. Xu Zhengping and the others nodded again and again.

In fact, this is also the case, in a huge school, there must be a lot of people and things to contact by phone, and slowly let these people come to the bookstore to contact by phone, and the income will come up.

After breakfast, we sat in the platform office for a while, I looked through the platform business record book, as I expected, many college students from nearby universities have contacted our platform, some hope to contact the summer tutor through our platform, and some are looking for the tutor for the next semester. I reminded Xu Zhengping to make a good publicity leaflet as soon as possible, and planned to go to various primary and secondary schools and streets again in mid-June.

In addition, Zhu Defa had already found Chu Huoyu and gave Chu Huoyu a list of books to buy. My inference is correct, 200 books, Zhu Defa still has the ability to sell.

Then we went to the classroom. Ding Ying and I walked into the classroom together, one after the other, and walked to our places.

Ai Sadako walked straight up to me.

"Hey, Zheng Qihang, where did you go yesterday, you can't see anyone, it's worrying to death." Ai Zhenzi said very bluntly, she didn't think about Ding Ying being by my side at all.

Ding Ying has been out of class for a week, should she be more concerned.

"I went to Huangbai City to find Ding Ying." I say.
