Qi Tongzhou's heart went up and down, anxious, as if he had foreseen the bleak wind and rain in his emotional journey in the future.

But he didn't mean to get it out.

Qi Tongzhou couldn't hold back the specific experience, he really didn't mind if Chen Wengang really had plans to enter politics, so he could only spy from Zheng Maoxun in a roundabout way. However, Zheng Maoxun actually didn't know more than him: "What do you say he's going to do?!" ”

Qi Tongzhou couldn't cover his mouth. As a result, he leaked Chen Wengang's bottom.

However, since Chen Wengang can let him know, he is not afraid of being known by others, but it is not worth shouting everywhere.

This little thing is not a secret that needs to be kept in the Zheng family.

Even Zheng Bingyi asked Chen Wengang to go to the study to talk again.

Although it was confirmed that it was an oolong, Zheng Bingyi took this opportunity to persuade Chen Wengang to consider seeking a job in the government.

This is a good choice, from the last time he picked out the matter of changing majors, Zheng Bingyi knew that his mind was no longer here.

For Chen Wengang, a child, since Zheng Bingyi is half of his adoptive father and half of his boss - Yu Zi, he always has feelings, and I hope that he will go further in the future; If he has the ambition to go to the step of running for election and participating in politics in the future, he can neither do without the support of the Zheng family, nor can he not give back to the Zheng family, which can be a win-win situation.

However, after the persuasion, Chen Wengang insisted instead: "Father-in-law, I never had this plan. ”

Zheng Bingyi saw his adopted son's expression, but calmed down, knowing that he did not have this desire for power.

Sure enough, interests drive people's brains, Zheng Bingyi snorted himself, At this age, he can't avoid vulgarity, listening to the wind is rain.

He waved his hand helplessly and told Chen Wengang to go out again.

When Chen Wengang walked downstairs, he saw two servants in the living room setting up an indoor ladder, one holding on and the other about to climb up.

One of them was Amei, and the other he recognized was the girl who called him the wrong one last time.

Now that the other party has become much more capable, the two greeted him together: "Young Master Wengang." ”

He went over and asked, "Are you going to repair the ceiling lamp?" Why don't you call a maintenance master? ”

Amei snorted: "When it comes to changing the lamp, why do you have to wait for the master to run?" ”

Chen Wengang took the initiative to stretch out his hand: "Then don't climb, let me come." ”

"Oh, no, I still need you to do this little thing?"

"It's okay, I'm tall, I'll come for convenience."

The circuit in the living room had been cut, and he squeaked and stepped on the ladder to go up, and Ame handed him the spare lamp.

Chen Wengang screwed on the lampshade with a screwdriver, and the girl quickly ran to check the power, and the top light was on.

This is one of the reasons why the staff at home like Chen Wengang: diligent, considerate, and kind. While collecting the ladder, Ah Mei chatted with Chen Wengang, saying that Sister Zhang's hometown in the kitchen sent her dried fruits, and she left a lot for him.

Just as he was talking happily, someone came up from the other side of the hallway. Seeing that it was Mu Qing, the laughter immediately stopped.

Ah Mei and the others gave Chen Wengang a look, meaning to send it to him later, and then silently carried the ladder and withdrew.

The atmosphere spoiler has no consciousness, and he still has an atmosphere that no one can enter.

Chen Wengang made way for Mu Qing, but he didn't go over.

Unexpectedly, he hesitated for a moment, and suddenly apologized to Chen Wengang: "Actually, I have something to do with you when I leaked your story." ”

Chen Wengang raised his eyebrows: "Which one?" ”

Mu Qing paused: "A few days ago, Qi Tongzhou chatted with me, and inadvertently talked about your future development intentions, I don't know that you only told him alone, and I don't know that Uncle They are not clear." So blame me for being too talkative, I hope you don't care. ”

This is also strange.

Chen Wengang looked at his vague expression, and suddenly understood-

It doesn't matter how much he talks, and the little thing he said is not a secret, this is to provoke his trust in Qi Tongzhou.

But this doesn't make any sense, in the foreseeable future, no matter what Chen Wengang does, he doesn't plan to get in the same boat.

Chen Wengang still replied: "It's okay." He was just a little surprised, when Qi Tongzhou and this one became speechless.

Mu Qing indifferently watched him pass by himself.

He caught a glimpse of Chen Wengang walking to the door, and met a servant who greeted him cordially: "Young Master Wengang, where are you going?" ”

Mu Qing turned his head and left.

Zheng Bingyi talked to Chen Wengang about another matter.

Chen Wengang's father's death day was approaching, and Zheng Bingyi asked him to pay tribute on his behalf.

It was a private matter, and Chen Wengang had planned to go alone.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Chen Zeng also remembered the days. He called Chen Wengang two days in advance, and his uncle and nephew made an appointment to meet.

On that day, the two drove separately and met in the parking lot of the cemetery. Chen Wengang hugged a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, and Chen Zeng brought paper and tribute according to folk customs. Chen Xiangling got out of the car with Chen Zeng, carrying a bag of snacks in her hand, and she smiled quietly at Chen Wengang.

Chen Zeng glanced at Chen Wengang's Lexus and boasted: "This car is good, newly bought?" ”

Chen Wengang didn't answer, and took the food box in his hand: "I'll help you carry it." ”

The paper burned, leaving a gray place, and the tributes and white chrysanthemums were placed in front of the tomb.

The cemetery is built on the mountainside, in fact, it is divided into two parks, and the far opposite is the place where the dignitaries are buried.

Zheng Bingyi once wanted to arrange the subordinates who died in the line of duty in the high-level cemetery over there. But Chen Wengang's father had already bought his own piece in advance when he buried his mother, and the deceased was the eldest and respected his wishes, and now the husband and wife are next to each other.

Chen Zeng poured the wine on the ground: "Brother, look at Wengang, he has grown so big." Our children are all healthy and healthy, so you have nothing to worry about. This is Xiangling, if I have the opportunity, I will bring Guangzong and Yaozu to see you. ”

His eyes were red, and he was babbling about his childhood.

The Chen family has been a native fisherman for several generations, and their skin is rough and dark by the sea breeze, and the most fish on the table is always fish. Chen Zeng wiped his eyes and said that his younger brother had vowed since he was a child that he would get rid of his identity as a fisherman and live a good life in the future.

Chen Xiangling stood respectfully for a while, staring at the white chrysanthemum petals.

She looked up at Chen Wengang, and a gust of wind passed by, lifting the ashes onto them.

When going down the mountain, Chen Zeng received a notice from his boss and asked him to go to meet customers together.

He said to his nephew, "Then please bring the incense bell home, uncle still has something to do." ”

After saying that, they hurriedly left, and the two young men glanced at each other, seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"My dad is floating now." Chen Xiangling said, "I always feel that I want to be a big boss, and I can't persuade him." ”

Director Chen Wen breathed a sigh of relief: "You don't care about the affairs of adults. But if you have a problem, you can always tell me. ”

Looking at the sky, they came early in the morning, and it was still early.

He asked Chen Xiangling, "Is it okay to accompany me to a place?" ”

Chen Xiangling followed him on a twenty-minute walk along the mountain road to another cemetery.

The park is visibly luxurious to the naked eye, with marble statues one after another.

Chen Wengang took her to the statues of angels and saints in the forest

Shuttle in between. Chen Xiangling didn't know who her cousin wanted to visit here, they just walked aimlessly, and even patrolled all the cemeteries that were still vacant. A solemn tulle solemnizes the entire cemetery.

Finally, Chen Wengang stood on the edge of the park.

It will be repaired and expanded here in three or four years, and the place where Huo Niansheng was buried in his previous life has not yet been repaired, and the distant mountains are desolate.

He smiled, suspicious, and finally relieved to see for himself.

So he quit the same way, and on the way home, Chen Xiangling felt that his cousin was much more interested for some reason.

Chen Wengang even encouraged her: "It seems that this place is quite close to the playground, do you want to stop by to play?" ”

Chen Xiangling was stunned: "Now you suddenly want to go?" How do you think of this? ”

Chen Wengang smiled narrowly: "Guangzong and Yaozu didn't come with you, it's a pity that you have to miss this good opportunity." ”

Chen Xiangling reacted, covered her mouth and smiled: "Oh~Let's do it secretly~"

Final word.

Chen Xiangling tilted her head: "Brother, do you remember that when I was a child, my uncle took the two of us to the park to play." ”

"Well, back then, the park was simple, with only bunkers and seesaws, and there weren't many recreational facilities."

Of course, simple is better than simple. Chen Xiangling remembers that when she was a child, she didn't have two younger brothers, and her uncle took her and her cousin out to play when he was on vacation.

When they arrived at the playground, the two walked into this colorful and loud world from the clown's mouth.

Although weekdays are not as crowded as weekends, there are still long queues of children and couples.

They played rapids, carousel, ate marshmallows, shot balloons, and watched puppet shows.

As for the more exciting projects that Chen Xiangling likes, pirate ships, roller coasters, and big pendulums...... The concentration was left behind.

Because Chen Wengang didn't do it, he pointed to his ears: "I'm old, I can't stand this stimulation." ”

Chen Xiangling pursed her lips and smiled: "Why do you always say that you look like a middle-aged and elderly person?" ”

Chen Wengang didn't deny it, and said with a smile: "Be obedient, you can go by yourself." I'll be waiting for you below. ”

A group of half-grown children ran over, meaning that they were about to line up, and Chen Xiangling immediately rushed to the end of the line like rabbits.

Chen Wengang simply found a bench to sit down, spread his arms on the back of the chair, and watched the roller coaster roar past in mid-air.

The crowd screamed, and laughter reached his ears.

The air was filled with the smell of popcorn and grilled sausages, and the sun was scorching to the eyelids.

Sleepiness gradually set in.

After dozing off, he dreamed.

The dream was the time when Huo Niansheng died.

He hadn't been plagued by nightmares for a while since the reunion.

But just like some people who have graduated for 800 years and still dream that they did not finish the exam paper when they were studying, some shadows are always waiting for an opportunity.

In fact, Huo Niansheng's funeral should have been handled by the Huo family, but at that time, Chen Wengang did something shocking. Under tremendous pressure, he forcibly detained Huo Niansheng's body in his hands, and no one let him take it away, and personally chose a place to be buried.

There are many people who come to him one by one, and he sees that everyone is suspicious, so he simply hates them together, and he doesn't believe any of them.

This also caused a sensation in the newspapers of Jincheng at that time, and it was a comical farce.

It should be a scene that most people can't imagine: a good hospital is like a □□ fire, and there are bodyguards waiting outside the morgue, and he fights his spirit, confronts wave after wave of people, and is mentally and physically tortured.

He couldn't stand it anymore, he sat on the ground against the wall for a while, and he had to watch out for the pervasive paparazzi, with long guns and short cannons, waiting to capture every moment of his collapse. Harley followed him with his teeth bared, and Director Chen Wen slept for two or three days, and when he woke up, he heard the dog barking, and when he opened his eyes, the fierce guard dog pressed the reporter underneath, and the fangs rested on his neck.

The camera and lens fell to the ground. He walked over, stopped the dog, and coldly stomped on the camera.

The reporter looked at him like a Shura from hell.

Chen Wengang didn't collapse, he just felt pain, Huo Niansheng didn't give him a name, but in the end, he didn't give Huo Niansheng a name. Looking back on the past seven years, he knew why he was doing it in the first place, and what he had done in the past seven years.

But he can't regret it, if he regrets it, he will really be completely dragged down, and if he steps back, it will be an abyss.

Finally, on the day of cremation, only a few of them were present to say goodbye to the body.

It wasn't until he looked at Huo Niansheng's cold sleeping face that Chen Wengang suddenly woke up from the chaos and realized that he was really gone.

As soon as the incinerator entered, the person would not be seen again.

He grabbed the wrist of the staff member, and he pinched it so hard that it was blue and red. I have forgotten what the staff member looks like, and with a rare honest face, he understands very well and does not complain, but follows the lawyer next to him to persuade him.

In the end, Chen Wengang calmed down and let go of the coffin in a daze.

Then came out a handful of ashes, packed in a box, until the funeral, and all the memories after this were chaotic.

Many years later, Amanda recalled this past with Lawyer Zhu, and covered her mouth with a smile, telling the staff of the foundation, don't treat Mr. Chen as a sick cat, look at him as a good husband, and it will be terrible to lose his temper.

Chen Wengang only smiled mildly when he heard it.

Time had polished him well, and he was indifferent to it, as if the old things were nothing.

Ordinary people can say goodbye to sadness, move into the future, and look back on the past calmly.

They had already walked out, and no one noticed that he was the only one who had been left behind, unable to move an inch.

Chen Wengang woke up suddenly, and the mobile phone in his pocket was ringing rapidly.

As soon as he had time to see the name "Huo Niansheng" clearly, the phone rang for the last time and was broken.

There are still two missed calls in the record.

He was in a trance for a few seconds before he straightened time and space back to what time and space he was in.

Chen Wengang found a place with few people behind the puppet theater, settled down, and gave Huo Niansheng a return to the past.

"Wengang." He heard Huo Niansheng call his name, "Are you okay now?" ”

Chen Wengang didn't know why, and intuitively felt that he was asking strangely. Most people can't get through on the phone, and they all ask "Did you have something to do just now?"

In fact, Huo Niansheng is indeed unsteady.

Yesterday I stayed up late, and when the driver was driving, he took a nap in the back seat, and he had nightmares with such a little effort.

In the dream, he lay cold and stiff, there were voices crying, tears hitting him, like cold raindrops falling from the sky.

It wasn't a very auspicious dream, but the sound was so familiar.

He didn't feel anything after he woke up, but he was nervous, and he always felt that something was wrong, and something happened to Chen Wengang.

The ominous premonition urged Huo Niansheng to dial the number, but the result was that he was too careful, and the other party was not only good, but also played in the playground.

There was lively music playing on the radio in the background, and there were children who were playing crazy and yelling.

Nothing is naturally best. Huo Niansheng breathed a sigh of relief, and was in the mood to tease him again: "Did you miss me?" ”
