11. Thank you

With such a start, the atmosphere at lunch will certainly be eerie.

Even people like Dai Zhenduo lost patience, not to mention that his presence was enough to show the respect of national defense for Wu Mei's father, so he didn't move his chopsticks a few times to say that something was wrong, and he left after signaling the young people to communicate freely.

It's just that after he left, the atmosphere became even more weird.

Now the four people in the room, Li Ben, Zhang Zizhong, Huo Chenggong, and Wu Mei, they are all very uncomfortable, more uncomfortable than when Dai Zhenduo was there.

So not long after, Li Ben was also ready to say goodbye and leave.

However, before leaving, he asked Huo Chenggong to treat Lieutenant Wu Mei well on behalf of national defense, Huo Chenggong hurriedly agreed, and Zhang Zizhong immediately asked Li Ben: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Li Ben opened the door as if he hadn't heard it.

After he left, Zhang Zizhong looked at Huo Chenggong: "What do you mean by him?" ”

"Probably because Lieutenant Wu is a lady, it's not good for Chief Li to give an order for you to accompany you, sir." Huo Chenggong explained to Zhang Zizhong, and finally said innocently: "I'm young." ”

Hearing this, even Wu Mei, who was full of thoughts, couldn't help laughing.

Looking at Zhang Zizhong's embarrassing appearance again, Wu Mei smiled even more happily, although she didn't know what the reason was, she felt that Huo Chenggong, the little guy, had always been defending herself.

But suddenly, she lowered her head with a flushed face.

The two people were puzzled and looked in the direction of her line of sight just now, only to find that Li Ben had opened the curtain a gap before leaving, and Zhang Zizhong pounced on it, just seeing Li Ben's back turning the corner in a hurry.

Zhang Zizhong decided to beat that guy today, he rolled up his sleeves to make a call, and at the same time scolded and said: "It's really weird today, what is this guy doing, anti-thief." ”

This sentence made Wu Mei's face even redder, Wu Mei didn't dare to look at Huo Chenggong's eyes, she scolded dissatisfiedly: "What are you talking nonsense." ”

“……”

Zhang Zizhong, who knew that he was speechless, had already sat down in a daze, but after this farce, he finally melted away the previous weirdness, and he asked, "What are you doing this time?" ”

"No comment." Wu Mei still didn't give him a good look.

Huo Chenggong looked at this scene and sighed in his heart, the more he was like this, the deeper he fell, how could he not see it, he honestly bowed his head to eat himself, but Wu Mei began to ask him, Wu Mei asked: "Huo Chenggong, I heard that you have broken the national defense record again and again?" ”

"And federal records."

"Who asked you." Wu Mei glared at Zhang Zizhong, Zhang Zizhong was still laughing, she hated him like this the most, the angry Wu Mei finally didn't care, Wu Mei asked bluntly: "What task did you perform yesterday, you actually blocked me, what's so great about you..."

The more proud the girl, once she is wronged, she will often lose control when she vents, Wu Mei even said, what is the big thing about you, Huo Chenggong's eyes are rolling, will he go or not?

"You're not allowed to go." Wu Mei pointed at him, Wu Mei didn't have the courage to stay alone with Zhang Zizhong.

But at the same time, Zhang Zizhong betrayed Huo Chenggong, Zhang Zizhong pointed at Huo Chenggong and said that he did all those things yesterday, not himself, and he lent him that number to perform the task.

As soon as she heard this, Wu Mei looked at Huo Chenggong in surprise, and then her pretty face was about to drip blood, and all the things she said were seen by this young man? Her arrogance suddenly disappeared, and she was speechless for a while.

And Huo Chenggong was so angry, he didn't care that Zhang Zizhong was quietly kicking him, Huo Chenggong shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about, why do you rely on my head again, who uses your number?" ”

At this time, it was Zhang Zizhong's turn to be stunned.

Wu Mei's tears finally burst out of her eyes, and she said angrily to Zhang Zizhong: "You let me out, I don't want to see you again." ”

"Hey..."

Zhang Zizhong just opened his mouth and hurriedly dodged, although he dodged the chopsticks thrown by Wu Mei, but accidentally knocked over the dishes, and the soup on half of his body was drenched in embarrassment, he looked down and finally opened the door to run, and was blocked at the door by the service soldiers who heard the sound outside.

Seeing the embarrassed appearance of Zhang Zizhong, who had never been defeated in the national defense, and the panic in his eyes, the service soldiers couldn't help but be dumbfounded, what kind of strong existence can make such a strong character have the idea of escaping and not dare to look back?

He didn't know whether he wanted to see it, Zhang Zizhong pushed him away, but he went back to the room and slammed the door shut.

The boom made Wu Mei startled, looking at Zhang Zizhong's appearance, she also felt a little remorseful in her heart, maybe there were complicated things, such as embarrassment, sadness, and what other emotions were mixed, and her tears couldn't be stopped.

But stubbornly, she just sat there like this, just turning her head slightly sideways, letting the tears flow.

Huo Chenggong hurriedly stood up, he was afraid that the grumpy chief would lose his temper, but obviously he was too worried, because after Zhang Zizhong slammed the door, there was no further excesses.

On the contrary, he sighed, if he didn't understand Wu Mei's mind at this time, he would also be in vain, standing there, looking at Wu Mei's appearance, looking at the two lines of tears that were definitely shed sadly on the fair and handsome face, looking at it, Zhang Zizhong couldn't help but sigh again, he told Huo Chenggong: "Don't talk about today's matter, it's so shameless." ”

"You!" Wu Mei immediately glared at him angrily.

"What are you crying about, look at me." Zhang Zizhong showed his image, and then said: "I didn't cry." ”

"Scoundrel." Wu Mei scolded, and after calming down, she quickly turned her head again, but she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

I'll just see that you guys are still out of control in the end, Huo Chenggong lamented in his heart for this scene, because he felt that the chief was simply messing with people like this.

At this time, Zhang Zizhong said to Huo Chenggong: "You sit with her for a while, and I'll come right away." ”

"Huh?" Huo Chenggong was stunned.

Zhang Zizhong immediately glared at him: "Obey the order, miscellaneous fish." ”

"Where are you going?"

Huo Chenggong is not afraid of him, Huo Chenggong is more afraid of being alone with Wu Mei, Wu Mei asks herself about something, how is she good, so he tightly pulls Zhang Zizhong and refuses to let him go.

Zhang Zizhong was anxious, what was wrong with the miscellaneous fish, he scolded: "What are you afraid of, she will eat you?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Mei blushed.

"Hmph." Zhang Zizhong seemed to have a toothache, and resolutely left Huo Chenggong and left.

I also heard that when this guy went out, he shouted at the people outside the door: "Look at it, it's scattered." ”

Huo Chenggong was helpless, so he simply got up and cleaned up the mess, Wu Mei stood up embarrassedly and wanted to help, but Huo Chenggong actually put the tables and chairs away and kicked the broken magnetic into the corner, but it was already sorted out in a moment's time, and he smiled at Wu Mei: "Don't worry about him, he is so heartless, and he doesn't know when to make him popular." ”

It can be seen just now that he and Zhang Zizhong have a very deep relationship, which is by no means the relationship between ordinary students and instructors, and then listening to him evaluate that person in the tone that only a friend has, Wu Mei was curious, she asked: "You and him, very good?" ”

"Yes." Huo Chenggong nodded.

Wu Mei listened to this answer and looked at Huo Chenggong again, looking at Huo Chenggong's appearance of a young man, she thought about it and asked: "He, what he said before is true, is it false?" ”

Huo Chenggong didn't squeak, he was afraid of something, he didn't know what to say for a while, Wu Mei looked at him silent as if he understood, Wu Mei bit her lip, and asked again: "He has a girlfriend, is it called Liu Fei, is it the maroon-haired girl you just crossed the corner?" ”

"Yes."

"When did it happen? Are they in a good relationship? ”

How can Huo Chenggong answer such a question, he was silent again, but just when Wu Mei was disappointed and wanted to leave, he spoke: "Sir." ”

"Huh?"

Looking at her, Huo Chenggong finally said what he wanted to say, and he asked her seriously: "I like someone, and this kind of liking is sudden and uncontrollable, but the other party doesn't know anything, isn't it very uncomfortable to say this." ”

"......" Wu Mei, who was halfway up, looked at Huo Chenggong at this moment in surprise, almost opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, she sat down slowly.

But Huo Chenggong didn't care about her reaction, he was still using the kind of memory tone that was completely inconsistent with his age, as if talking to himself: "I don't know when this feeling started, I only know that this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, and finally desperately want to tell the other party, want to get a clear answer to end his pain, but he encountered heartless treatment, and even learned that he already belonged to someone else, isn't it very wronged." ”

“……”

"Chief Zhang already knows your intentions, he cherishes your good impression of him from the bottom of his heart, even after bearing some unreasonable anger from you to him, I hope you can no longer feel uncomfortable, so the more he is like this, the more unwilling you feel."

“… You seem to have a lot of experience. Wu Mei, who was stung, wanted to save some face in front of the miscellaneous fish.

"Oh, that's because I'm so like you, I like someone with all my heart, I pay for her wholeheartedly, fortunately, she accepted me, but I think, if she rejects me, I have no reason to hate her, today I saw your tears, I am glad that I have met the love at the same time, but also have heartfelt sympathy for you, because you are not wrong, what is wrong is the fate of people."

The last layer of reserve in Wu Mei's heart was also crushed by Huo Chenggong's words that went straight to her heart, she looked at the young man in a daze, and muttered: "Is it the fate of people who is wrong?" ”

"Yes, sir, what's wrong with liking and being liked."

"If I..."

Although she wanted to speak and stopped, Huo Chengcheng understood what she meant, Huo Chenggong said: "Without a period of self-clarification, how can you face up to your feelings, but everything is irreversible, unless you go back to the past with the memories of the present." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, but before Wu Mei could speak, he immediately said: "Okay, let's assume it, even if you can be with him for such an unbelievable reason, but once you meet Lieutenant Liu Fei, who should really be his girlfriend, what is the feeling in your heart, even if you avoid it forever, these secrets are like a thorn that cannot be pulled out." ”

Wu Mei tried her best to calm her heart, but she couldn't calm down, this young man's words embarrassed her too much, but she brutally shattered everything she thought and imagined.

Although his diction is tactful.

But somehow, Wu Mei felt that she felt better in her heart.

And at this moment, Huo Chenggong was looking at him seriously.

The pity in his eyes unconsciously reminded Wu Mei of how she felt before, and she asked, "You seem to know me?" ”

"No, but I've heard of you, and they say that Chief Zhang chased you and failed."

"Who is talking such nonsense?" Wu Mei was angry.

Huo Chenggong smiled apologetically: "A lot, you know, Chief Zhang's temper is destined for him to make brothers who can exchange life and death, but it will also provoke countless open guns and hidden arrows." ”

Wu Mei was silent.

Looking at her appearance, Huo Chenggong hesitated, and then asked tentatively: "Sir, anyway, it's boring, how about I talk to you about my affairs?" ”

"Huh? Good. ”

Ignoring the other party's absent-mindedness, Huo Chenggong said: "At that time, in junior high school, I liked a girl, but I never dared to say it, and I didn't even dare to see her, even if I did, I would have a heartbeat and blush and couldn't face it." ”

When he opened his mouth, he attracted the attention of Wu Mei, who had no intention, because Wu Mei felt that this was simply talking about herself.

Huo Chenggong was still taking care of himself and said in that kind of reminiscing tone: "But I can often meet her, and then she will look at me and smile softly, but when that time comes, I am timid, so I avoid it in a panic, so between her and me, in the end, can only exist in my imagination." ”

"And then?" Wu Mei finally got his full attention.

"No, I only have the courage to imagine her good, and imagination is always good, until one day."

At this moment, Zhang Zizhong pushed the door open, but before he could step in, Wu Mei stood up.

Zhang Zizhong, who was dressed in new clothes, was suddenly shocked: "Don't." ”

Seeing this guy's pretentious appearance, Wu Mei gritted her teeth angrily and turned back to Huo Chenggong and said, "You come with me." ”

Huo Chenggong could only honestly walk out with Wu Mei, Zhang Zizhong stood there confused, not puzzled what the miscellaneous fish did after he left.

At this time, Wu Mei didn't look back and said, "You can go and get busy, you can find your girlfriend." ”

She waved her hand and tried to smile, trying to shake away the sourness that she couldn't help but have.

Zhang Zizhong froze there because of this, and then looked at Wu Mei, Wu Mei had already walked into the elevator with Huo Chenggong, and he was even more puzzled, where are they going?

A few minutes later, Wu Mei took Huo Chenggong into her office, which was just assigned to her today, the preparatory room for the exchange of Hebei and national defense and military exchanges, after entering the office where there was no one else at present, Wu Mei first poured Huo Chenggong a cup of coffee, and then she explained with a smile: "I just want to listen to your secret without being disturbed." ”

"Well, I want to finish it too, you know, it's more uncomfortable to hold back than not to hear."

Seeing this little guy pretending to be crazy and stupid, knowing that he must be able to understand his feelings of not wanting to see Zhang Zizhong at the moment, Wu Mei still couldn't help laughing, now she has regarded Huo Chenggong as a friend, so she gave Huo Chenggong a blank look: "Say it." ”

"Until one day, when I was in school, I was turning a corner, and suddenly I heard her say." Huo Chenggong shrugged, he said: "She said to a boy, what nonsense are you talking about, how can I look at a guy like Huo Chenggong, I just see that it's more fun for him to blush when he sees me, just..."

Is this true?

Wu Mei looked at him sympathetically, this kind of thing must be uncomfortable, but Huo Chenggong looked calm, because this was something that didn't happen in the first place, and he even said to Wu Mei: "Then I was injured, and it was really uncomfortable to be toyed with, especially a pure teenager like me." ”

Wu Mei finally couldn't control it with such a description, and laughed from the bottom of her heart for the first time today, and it may be that Huo Chenggong's attitude is too indifferent, so Wu Mei asked him if he made up these past to comfort himself.

Of course, Huo Chenggong didn't admit it, and he immediately said: "Sir, do you know that there is a saying that says this, when you have the courage to face the wound, treat it calmly, and even laugh at others, you can be considered truly mature." ”

“… Thank you. ”

Whether what he just said was true or not, Wu Mei was grateful for what he had done for himself today.

Seeing her like this, Huo Chenggong smiled: "You're welcome, sir." ”

Then he got up and said, "Then I'll leave first." ”

"Let's finish this cup of coffee."

She picked up the coffee pot to add it, Huo Chenggong could only sit down again, at this time, Wu Mei looked at this handsome and sensible young man, and suddenly couldn't help asking, "Do you have a sister?" ”

"I must be very happy to have a brother like you." Without waiting for Huo Chenggong to answer, Wu Mei said another sentence quietly.

"I'm an orphan."

"Ahh Wu Mei was surprised.

Huo Chenggong gave her the feeling of first sight, and the impression she got after this short but deep contact, all made her think that Huo Chenggong must have been born in a famous family in Xuchang, not received a good education since he was a child, and had the words and deeds of the elders in the family, how could a young man understand people's hearts and know warmth to such a point.

But he said that he was an orphan, which made Wu Mei unable to believe it.

She didn't know what to say for a while, Huo Chenggong smiled faintly: "Chief can go and ask Chief Dai, Adjutant Li also knows." ”

"I'm sorry, I just, I just thought you were good, I thought."

"It's nothing, even many teachers in national defense think that I have some big background, and it is good to give people such a wonderful illusion, at least in people's mouths, I am not so lonely."

Wu Mei was sad to hear this, she looked at Huo Chenggong apologetically, and wanted to say something comforting, but Huo Chenggong was very calm, he shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Sir, do you know, the most ridiculous thing is that when all our students gather in the apartment where I live, they still think that I am a game world, and strive to be an absolutely low-key son." ”

"Some people think that I may be the illegitimate son of the Federal Governor, otherwise how could the top defense officials value me so much." He said again.

Wu Mei was amused by such an outrageous speculation, and she shook her head helplessly: "Don't be like these people, you will definitely have a bright future." ”

Huo Chenggong nodded, he looked at the time, he was really going to participate in telekinesis training, so he officially said goodbye, and said, "Sir, I'm really happy to see you." ”

"Me too." Wu Mei said with a smile.

"Goodbye, sir."

"Hey."

Huo Chenggong turned around, and Wu Mei looked at him and snapped her fingers: "Number, do you want the girl to speak first?" ”

"Ahh Huo Chenggong suddenly reported his terminal number to Wu Mei, and Wu Mei asked while recording his number, "Are we friends?" ”

"It's an honor."

"Hehe, Huo Chenggong, you are very imposing when you are serious, well, if I am bored, can I chat with you?"

"Definitely."

When Huo Chenggong walked away, Wu Mei stood there with her head sideways and thought about it, she felt that she was indeed not so uncomfortable, and now she was still very curious, she wanted to know everything about Huo Chenggong, so she walked towards Dai Zhenduo's office.
