Faced with a series of blows, his spirit almost collapsed. He lay on the grave of his parents and wept.

The village party secretary came to comfort him and explained the truth to him.

It turned out that when he was in high school in the city, his parents were already terminally ill, and in order not to affect his studies, he asked the villagers to hide him together. My parents' wish is to let him have a chance and get out of the bitter sea in the countryside. The villagers also have a wish, and after many years in the village, there will be a college student who can raise their eyebrows. When he left his hometown that year, when his parents put him on the bus to the city, they couldn't support each other, and they supported each other's weak bodies, tears blurred their eyes, but they still stared at the bus that had disappeared. Perhaps, they know that their son's departure may be a farewell. But for the sake of their son's future, they could only give up with tears.

When he was in college, he never returned to his hometown because the food standard of the petroleum college he studied at was too high. He had to take advantage of the holidays to work in the local area to earn food. Of course, he also had a reason not to go home, that is, a letter from his hometown saying that everything was fine and not letting him worry about it. As a result, he worked part-time in the local area and finally returned from his studies, but he was left with regrets that he could not let go of in his life.

After returning to the city, he first met with his teacher, Professor Ye.

At that time, Professor Yip was no longer teaching in secondary schools, but was the Under Secretary of Education Bureau and became a well-known scholar in the area. The reason he visited his former mentor was that he was sponsored by him both in high school and in college. It's like another father to him.

Professor Yip was naturally very sympathetic to the changes in his family and advised him to cheer up. At Professor Ye's house, he saw the teacher put a group photo of his most proud protégés at home. It was after they were admitted to their respective universities, and Professor Ye held a special party for these proud protégés, which was a group photo at that time. Since he and Jiang Wanrong have been in love for life, they rely on each other. Jiang Wanrong also deliberately tilted her head towards him. Looking at the girl he liked in the photo, his tears couldn't help but blur.

Professor Ye naturally learned of the fact that he was in love with Jiang Wanrong, and revealed some real information to him. As Jiang Wanrong studied at a local university, she has always maintained a relationship with Professor Yip. Professor Ye is also aware of the fact that she used the winter and summer vacations to visit his parents in his hometown. Professor Yip explained that Rong Rong helped his parents hide his illness in the letter to him, which was entirely for his sake, because his parents could not take care of themselves at that time, and once he knew, he would definitely not be able to continue studying. So, she and his parents jointly made up a big lie. His parents died less than a month before he could return from school. At that time, Jiang Wanrong was like one of their daughters, personally handling the aftermath and wearing filial piety for their second elder. She claimed at the time that she was replacing him as the second elder Dai Xiao.

When he learned of these circumstances, he couldn't complain about Jiang Wanrong anymore, and cried on the spot.

Professor Ye patted him on the shoulder: "Hong Ming, now that you have no relatives, I will be your relatives in the future." You and Rong Rong may be inseparable, or forget about that relationship, everything has to start over. ”

But how could he forget?

In the following days, he proposed to the organization to work in the hardest places, hoping to use work to relieve his longing. However, he simply can't help but miss the girl he loves. Especially when he remembered that she not only took care of his parents without regrets for him, but also helped him bear everything. However, he could not express his longing in person. Because she was already married, even to his best classmate. How can he disturb the happy life of others?

Twenty years have passed, and he has been single, and he has not even been in a relationship once.

He is too persistent, and would rather be willing to pay for his life for the sake of a sweet relationship. Perhaps, he secretly felt that he and her still had a chance to renew their relationship.

Now, such an opportunity has finally appeared. When they got back together, their relationship was already a matter of course. Now, belated happiness finally beckons to him.

At this moment, he was in his office, still immersed in the last words she had left when they parted just now.

Suddenly, he realized something, immediately picked up his mobile phone, and dialed his hometown thousands of miles away-

The call was made to his mentor, Professor Ye.

Professor Ye had just finished attending the Belt and Road International Forum and had just met Jiang Wanrong's daughter Shen Linxi when he received a call from him.

"Hong Ming, are you okay there?"

Every time he talked to his teacher on the phone, he was moved by words: "Teacher, I'm fine." How is your old body? ”

Professor Ye smiled happily: "I have just attended an international forum, and I am not only in good health, but also mentally excited. ”

"Oh, what kind of forum was that?"

"About the Belt and Road Initiative. I am very proud because so many good students, including you, have contributed to the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative and conveyed China's energy to the world." I've been invited to speak. ”

He sighed: "With the support of you and the motherland, I and several other students who are engaged in construction overseas will definitely not forget their original intentions." ”

"Well, how is Rong Rong now?"

"Teacher, didn't she contact you?"

"Oh, haven't been in touch in a while. Although I miss her, I can't disturb her work. Although she is a woman, like several of your male classmates, she is silently dedicating herself to the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative. ”

His eyes filled with tears: "Teacher, maybe Rong Rong hasn't bothered to report to you..." Let me say it. ”

Professor Ye's heart tightened: "What is the situation with Rong Rong?" ”

"Don't be nervous. She's ready to marry me. ”

Professor Ye's heart was relieved, and he suddenly let out a long breath: "Really? That's great! ”

He listened to his teacher's statement and was very excited: "Teacher, I want your old man to officiate the marriage for the two of us." ”

Professor Ye thought about it for a long time before he made a statement: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”

His heart sank: "Are you worried about Jing Hao's feelings?" ”

"No, where did you think of going? Now that you've decided to get married, just hurry up. I can't wait until the day I return home. ”

"Why?"

"You and she are both shouldering a great mission given by the country, and no one will be able to return to China in a short period of time. I don't want you to wait any longer. ”

"Does your old man want me and Rong Rong to have a foreign wedding?"

"Yes. You're both young, how many years do you have left to waste? Rong Rong has made the bravest step for you. You must not dislike her because of her past. ”

He said emotionally: "Rong Rong's 'past' is not her fault, it is purely a man-made misunderstanding. How can I dislike her? She will always be a bright pearl in my heart, worthy of my cherishing and care for the rest of my life. ”

"That's good, that's good, although I can't go thousands of miles away to marry you two, but I am also a parent of the two of you, and I will do everything I can to help you both."

"Thank you, teacher. Should Jing Hao be notified of this matter? ”

"Regarding Jing Hao and Linxi's feelings, you don't care. I'll do their job. Now, Jing Hao, like you, is working hard overseas. ”

After he put down his phone, he muttered in his heart, his teacher said that he would do everything he could to help me and Rong Rong, how could he help?

After Professor Ye ended the call, he felt relieved and glanced at the photo in the frame with excitement.

When his eyes just moved away from Xing Hongming and Jiang Wanrong, he couldn't help but lock on the emaciated boy on the far right. That is another of his proud students - Lu Yuxian.
