Cheng Xuedong had to stop talking and took out his mobile phone from the pocket of his white coat.

Liu Xiaoguang asked curiously, "Lao Cheng, who called?" ”

Cheng Xuedong looked surprised when he saw that it was Liu Yan's call, because the other party had never taken the initiative to call him. Could it be that something has happened in the family?

At this time, he had an ominous premonition, and he didn't care about answering Liu Xiaoguang, so he couldn't wait to answer the phone-

"Hey, Yan'er, what's the situation with Shuzhen?"

The purpose of Liu Yan's phone call this time was to confess Wang Shuzhen's actual situation to him, and the purpose was to urge him to return to Shangjiang as soon as possible, but when he heard his tone, he was very nervous and anxious, and immediately hesitated, worried that the other party would have a mental breakdown if he knew that his wife was dying? What kind of hidden danger will this cause on his way home?

Cheng Xuedong heard that there was no movement in the mobile phone, so he quickly moved to the front to check it, and made sure that it was in the normal call before continuing to ask: "Are you listening?" Tell me what's going on? ”

After a short period of fierce ideological struggle, Liu Yan decided not to let him go home with grief, but with a sense of excitement and eagerness. So she decided to tell her idol one last time!

"Teacher Cheng, why are you in such a hurry?"

Cheng Xuedong heard that although her tone was slightly disgusted, it was generally peaceful, so his mind calmed down a little, and his tone softened: "I'm worried that Shuzhen will have an accident, so I'm just that..."

"Why do you think that?"

"Because you're fine, you won't call me."

Liu Yan sighed with emotion: "Yes, this is the first time I have called you." ”

"Yan'er, is there something wrong with Shuzhen?"

"You!" Liu Yan's disgusted tone came out of the mobile phone again: "Even if this is the first time I take the initiative to call you, it doesn't mean that Sister Shuzhen is in trouble?" Alas, it was right that Sister Shuzhen didn't want to answer your phone before, you are always so nervous about her, can you still do your job? ”

Cheng Xuedong's mood completely relaxed, revealing an apologetic smile: "Yan'er, is there something wrong with your call?" ”

"Is it only possible to call you if I have something?"

"No, no, I just feel like you must have something to tell me if you took the initiative to call."

"Okay, then I'll tell you, Sister Shuzhen is very excited to learn that you are coming back, and I hope you will come home soon. Can you advance a little earlier? ”

Cheng Xuedong's nose was sour: "Does she really want me to go home early?" ”

"Is this still to be asked? It's been more than half a year since you left. She's been looking forward to you for a long time! ”

Cheng Xuedong's tears of excitement suddenly burst out of his eyes: "Why didn't she call me personally... Why didn't you answer my phone before?"

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoguang couldn't help but be moved.

Liu Yan on the other end of the phone was already in tears, but she could barely restrain her choked voice: "Teacher Cheng... Sister Shuzhen, it's not that she doesn't want to answer your call... She... She thinks about you all the time... But in order not to distract you... In order to realize your common dream... She can only bury the pain of longing deep in her heart... She... I hope you can devote 100% of your energy to the motherland's Tianyan project..."

Liu Yan couldn't cry anymore when she said this.

Cheng Xuedong heard her crying, and his heart couldn't help but have mixed feelings, and the scene of leaving home suddenly appeared in front of him, which made him excited, and immediately asked emotionally: "What about Shuzhen?" I'm going to talk to her right away! ”

Liu Yan was shocked, and quickly shook her head again and again: "No, no, you can't talk now!" ”

Cheng Xuedong was stunned and said, "Why can't you?" I'm going home, what else is she worried about? ”

"Teacher Cheng... She's not worried... Instead, I learned that you're coming back... I'm already crying with joy... I can't answer your calls anymore..."

Cheng Xuedong was shocked, and he felt that he could no longer talk to his beloved wife normally, because he had already choked up through Liu Yan, if he heard his beloved wife's crying again, where would he put himself?

After thinking about it, he could only give up painfully: "Okay, please take care of her body and wait for me to go home." ”

Liu Yan had a premonition that he was about to hang up the phone, and hurriedly urged: "Teacher Cheng, you must hurry up and go home." ”

"Yan'er, I have already booked a ticket for tomorrow, and I will be home that night, and I guarantee that I will not miss Xiaowei's college entrance examination."

"But... Xiaowei is going home tomorrow to recuperate, and I need you to pick her up. ”

Cheng Xuedong was a little embarrassed: "But I have already booked the ticket, so it's inconvenient to leave in advance." ”

Liu Yan saw that he didn't mean to leave immediately, and he couldn't force it, so he had to say, "Okay then." ”

Cheng Xuedong said politely: "I'll trouble you about taking Xiaowei home, you must pay attention to traffic safety." ”

Liu Yan nodded while shedding tears: "I know... Take care of yourself..."

Liu Xiaoguang obviously heard the voice on the mobile phone clearly, so as soon as Cheng Xuedong hung up the phone, he immediately questioned: "Old Cheng, what is the relationship between the girl you are talking to and you and Shuzhen?" ”

Cheng Xuedong was obviously still immersed in the excitement just now, first wiped his eyes, and then ignored the other party's misunderstood gaze, and said in a slightly calm tone: "Didn't you hear it?" She is Liu Yan who takes care of Shuzhen. ”

"I'm not interested in her name, I just want to know her relationship with your husband and wife."

Cheng Xuedong felt that he didn't have enough respect for Liu Yan, and immediately cast a dissatisfied gaze: "Why are you asking about this?" ”

Liu Xiaoguang was blunt at this time: "I always feel that the tone of your two speeches is like a pair of lovers, even lovers of life and death." ”

Cheng Xuedong's face changed, and at the same time, he was startled, and couldn't help but accuse: "What nonsense are you talking about?" She is a student brought out by Shuzhen. Didn't you hear what she called me? She's a girl under thirty! ”

"She calls you 'teacher', but she calls Shujin a sister. Since it's a student brought out by Shuzhen, it must also be a staff member engaged in astronomy, right? ”

"Yes. She was a promising up-and-comer before. ”

"If that's the case, why would she work as a nanny in your house?"

"This..."

Cheng Xuedong couldn't say why, because with Liu Yan's original excuse and his beloved wife's recovery, he shouldn't have stayed at his house for more than half a year.

Liu Xiaoguang went deeper at this time: "If she has a deep affection for one of the two of you, will she do this?" ”

Cheng Xuedong thought for a moment, and finally replied coldly: "Do you doubt the relationship between the two of us?" Do you hear that we are talking ambiguously? ”

"It's not that I'm too careful, but your relationship with her is really special, although she doesn't have any ambiguity for you, but every sentence is full of true feelings. Can't you hear it? Or pretending to be confused? Besides, listening to the meaning of her words, it seems that she has been taking Shuzhen's place to answer your phone call every time you call back. ”

Cheng Xuedong took a deep breath: "Regarding Shuzhen not answering the phone, didn't you hear the reason just now?" Professor Nan also knew about this before, and he also suspected Shuzhen's condition. ”

Liu Xiaoguang pondered: "Shuzhen used to be a student of Professor Nan's guidance, and she is also a very famous astronomer, even if she is a special family member, she can't refuse to talk to you all the time because she is worried about disturbing your work?" Is there something unspeakable about her? ”

"This..."

Cheng Xuedong was difficult to answer again, after Liu Xiaoguang's questioning and awakening just now, he was a little relieved, his beloved wife is indeed not like the previous Shuzhen.

Liu Xiaoguang didn't give him any chance to buffer: "Please answer!" ”

Cheng Xuedong had no choice but to defend: "There is nothing to answer here." She was really worried that I was delaying my work because of my children's affection. ”

"What a joke!" Liu Xiaoguang looked very disdainful, "Can children be discouraged by their love for children?" Me and Meng Meng are still in love? But every time I come into contact with her, I burst out with a kind of motivation to struggle, which is a kind of passion and boiling blood. Sook-jin is much more mature than Moe Moe, right? Can't she spur you on the phone? ”

Cheng Xuedong was almost speechless in the face of all the doubts he raised, so he had to hide a sentence: "Her thoughts may not be the same as Mengmeng." You'd better not generalize. ”

"Shuzhen is different from Mengmeng, but don't you think it's strange to go through that girl every time you contact her?"

Cheng Xuedong felt that his head was a little big, so he waved his hand impatiently: "Forget it, don't be suspicious." I'll give you an explanation when I get home and see Shuzhen. Now please arrange this meal now. ”

As soon as Liu Xiaoguang heard him mention 'candied rice', his face suddenly glowed with joy, because he thought of his girlfriend in love from candied rice. He wants Li Mengmeng to be the protagonist of this candied meal.

"Okay, I'll contact Meng Meng immediately."

Cheng Xuedong was a little puzzled: "Why did you contact her first?" ”

Liu Xiaoguang replied while taking out his mobile phone from the pocket of his white coat: "I'm so busy, how can I have time to go out and book a hotel?" I want her to help arrange it. ”

Cheng Xuedong couldn't help sighing: "I said Lao Liu, do you still have to book a meal in advance?" Are you taking the opportunity to find an excuse to go on a date? I don't want to be your 'light bulb' for both of you! ”

Liu Xiaoguang's cheeks were hot: "Don't talk nonsense. Do I want to date you on a date? Since I'm here for you, I should always choose a unique hotel, right? Although there are many restaurants outside, the distinctive hotels are always so popular that they must be booked in advance. ”

Cheng Xuedong's heart moved: "Since you want to be extravagant, do you want to invite Professor Nan?" ”

Liu Xiaoguang glanced at him: "Then do you need to say it?" Professor Nan has been busy from morning to night, and we should have asked him to go out and relax. ”

Cheng Xuedong couldn't help but point his hand at Liu Xiaoguang's nose: "Okay, you old Liu, obviously you want to invite Professor Nan, and you want to be cute, but you use it as an excuse to give me a sweet behavior." I don't think I have such a big face in your eyes. ”

Liu Xiaoguang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't you speak so ugly, don't I, Liu Xiaoguang, treat you as a brother?" ”

Cheng Xuedong recalled his misunderstanding of himself and Liu Yan just now, and couldn't help but snort in his nostrils: "You yourself are obsessed with Meng Meng, not to mention, you still think that I am like you, 'old cows eat tender grass'." ”

Liu Xiaoguang no longer grinds with him, and the mobile phone in his hand has dialed Li Mengmeng's mobile phone number-
