April 1

Longjiang

Just in time for the national holiday.

Chen Zhen's father, Professor Chen, just returned to China.

The old man is a native of Longjiang.

Like many elder parents in that era, he passed the national college entrance examination and was admitted to university. After graduation, he became a glorious people's teacher.

Before that, he and his wife had settled abroad for many years.

In the late 90s, they decided overnight to leave their hometown with their family.

This decision seemed very strange at the time, but it happened so suddenly.

Over the years, the Chen family couple have never returned to Longjiang.

As if when I came back, I would encounter something unimaginable to ordinary people. I didn't even take the initiative to mention where I lived and worked in the past.

Because of this, Professor Chen decided to go back to China alone without saying hello, and everyone, including Chen Zhen, felt an unexpected surprise.

"You said, your dad told you on the phone that just three days ago, an old colleague suddenly sent him an email from Qiqihar?"

This was what Chen Zhen called Fu Bailong later that day.

It is estimated that it involves some privacy of the old man's return to China, so Chen Zhen can't help but feel a little worried in his current tone.

"Well, it's Qiqihar City."

"..."

"But I looked up the name my dad said, do you know what I found? The old man my dad mentioned had his household registration canceled 20 years ago, and he is a person who does not exist in the world at all."

"So, I suspect that this is also a retired city hero, and maybe it has something to do with the Qinjiang earthquake more than 20 years ago, or something about your parents after that."

"...Especially, it hasn't been long since the fifth subspecies attack, and the forces of the Celestial Society are still watching. I'm a little worried about my dad's safety when he comes back this time."

"My dad has always been stubborn. Because I chose the academic path back then, he refused to tell me anything."

"Bailong, can you and Li Xie do me a favor this time, keep an eye on my dad's whereabouts secretly, and also help me...test out what my dad is doing when he comes back."

This was all Chen Zhen wanted to express on the phone that day.

The person he trusts the most right now.

It was Fu Bailong and Li Xie who had been city heroes time and time again and saved Longjiang from successive crises.

In this regard, Fu Bailong is also very aware of his concerns.

After all, the mysterious power of the Tianshenhui is still hovering above the Longjiang River, and the matter is far from over.

The Qinjiang earthquake, and the sixth subspecies that are still being searched for.

Everything seems to start with this incident more than 20 years ago.

Therefore, taking into account this layer of relationship.

Not only Chen Zhen, the son, but also Fu Bailong, who agreed to his personal request like this, also put aside his official business on that day, and spared a day just today.

"Brother Bailong, here and here!"

After three months, it was still the airport in the city where the story first happened.

Across the road, there was a voice calling his name.

Fu Bailong, who was standing alone and looking aside, seemed to be thinking about something, when he looked up, he saw Chen Zhen's familiar family car.

Behind the half-closed car window, Lu Yiming, the kid who knew without thinking and would definitely follow him, poked his head out and waved to him.

Because it is still a bit cold outdoors today, Lu Yiming and his boyfriend both wore couple sweaters.

Looking at it this way, one of the two is gentle and elegant, the other is lively and clever, which is quite a match.

There was a bouquet of flowers in the car, which seemed to be given to Professor Chen who was going back to China this time, and I bought it specially to welcome him back.

But today, it is said that Lu Yiming saw Professor Chen himself for the first time.

Before the old man, he only heard that his son had a relationship with a man, and the two returned to China together, but they never made a statement.

Right now, the two of them seem to have put in a lot of effort to officially meet their parents for the first time.

Seeing this, Fu Bailong didn't say anything.

Wearing a long winter windbreaker that fit his figure and temperament, he crossed the road expressionlessly and got into their car, and greeted the two sitting in front.

It was also when the three of them met at the gate of the airport.

Seeing that Fu Bailong came here by himself today, Chen Zhen, who followed to look out the window but didn't see the other person, also asked him casually,

"Bailong, where's Li Xieren? Didn't he come with you today?"

These words also caught Lu Yiming's attention.

Because a few days in advance, the two of them had already told Fu Bailong and Li Xie that they would come to pick up Chen Zhen's father today.

At that time, both of them agreed to come, and then we all had dinner together in the evening.

But this time, it was Fu Bailong who arrived first.

And once again being asked about a certain person.

Fu Bailong, who had also mentioned today's matter in private with someone before, also paused, and then frowned and replied a little uncomfortably.

"Well, he said he has something to do, come back later."

To these words, Fu Bailong replied very coldly.

It's not like I used to quarrel with someone so often, but I also keep a little distance from the other person with restraint.

Chen Zhen and Lu Yiming, who didn't know what happened, were also suspicious, wondering why you two lived together and went out separately, maybe this is some new type of cohabitation.

But obviously, the matter of 'cohabitation' is always a question that Fu Bailong never wants to bring up.

Thinking of this, Mr. Fu, the ultimate Tsundere who can't get in touch with someone even if he goes out, doesn't want to say anything.

Looking at his watch, Fu Bailong, who was in a hurry, said coldly, wait another 5 minutes, if some people don't come, then don't wait for him.

Chen Zhen and Lu Yiming didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Hurry up and find a place to park at the gate of the airport, so I want to say wait and see.

Fortunately, it is said that it is 5 minutes, and Li Xie is not uncommonly late today.

The card comes at this point in time.

And from a long distance, I saw someone riding his heavy motorcycle passing by on the road, which was still quite cool, and stopped at the gate of the airport with the icy wind.

Waiting to take off the metallic black helmet on his head with his black gloved hand.

As long as you don't do anything weird on purpose.

Dressed in black, with highlight dyed hair, Li Xie, who was able to attract everyone around him to look at him, parked his car just like that, walked over with his pockets in his pockets, and knocked on the window.

He knocked on the window.

Inside, Fu Bailong who pretended to be inaudible with a cold face ignored him.

Obviously, this person has his own hands, so he doesn't understand why someone else has to open them for him every time.

Seeing this, Li Xie, who was elusive all day long and rarely appeared in front of people during the day, just looked down at him.

Then, this guy who has always been intentional, regardless of his own other people still in front, suddenly raised his voice quite loudly and said something shamelessly.

"Baby, open the door."

Fu Bailong: "..."

This sound is a very lethal 'nickname' in general public occasions.

All of a sudden, the duo in the front row who thought they had a quarrel made their eyes look a little weird.

Fu Bailong, who was humiliated in public, opened the door furiously.

Li Xie took advantage of this time to sit in, and even took off his glove and threw it to him.

Seeing a 'tyrannosaurus rex' sitting by the window blowing the cold wind, he picked it up and took it with him, but he still ignored him with a cold face.

A certain guard, Mr. Bird, sat down beside him without saying anything, and raised his head as if he just saw the two people in front of him.

"Brother, why did you come so late, and why didn't you and Brother Bailong come together? Today is the day when Chen Zhen's father came back from abroad..."

It seemed a little dissatisfied that he was late even though he knew today was very important to him.

Brother Lu also accused him with a look of dissatisfaction, but Li Xie was even more irritated when he heard the words.

"This is his dad, not my dad. It doesn't matter if I'm on time or not."

"... But, but Chen Zhen is my boyfriend, okay?"

Lu Yiming was even angrier when he heard that.

"Oh, but he's not my boyfriend, so it's none of my business."

"Ah! Li Xie! You are like this every time! Why do I have a big brother like you! You, you don't care about me like Brother Bailong!"

This answer is really Li Xie.

Fortunately, Chen Zhen also has a good temper.

Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel again, they hurried out to persuade them to fight, and even offered to say something, why don't we go to the exit to pick up people first, and Bai Long and Li Xie, please wait for us below.

That being said, everyone has no opinion.

The four of them made an appointment to meet next time, so they split up into two ends.

Lu Yiming, who was so angry just now, didn't want to talk to his brother anymore. He just dragged his boyfriend to pick up his future 'uncle' in a huff.

At the moment, only Fu Bailong and Li Xie were left waiting for them.

"I think they both seem to be very nervous, Chen Zhen's father doesn't think he doesn't like Lu Yiming."

I saw a silly boy who was still very scared when he went up.

It was the first time that Fu Bailong, who was so nervous about Lu Yiming's arrival, frowned as he watched the two leave.

"That's Chen Zhen's father, not you. Maybe he also wants to break up the two of them, and find a distant cousin so that he can go back to the United States to get married right away."

He didn't worry at all about what happened to the younger brother he picked up when he saw his elders for the first time.

A certain inhuman elder brother is still in the mood to make such a joke right now.

"Shut up, when did I want to separate the two of them... Don't tell me nonsense all day long regardless of the occasion."

Hearing this, his face darkened.

Fu Bailong who heard which pot he would not open and which pot he picked up was also a little angry.

At the moment, the two of them quarreled like this, and the atmosphere suddenly turned bad again.

In front of you, people are coming and going at the airport.

Same as three months ago.

Airplanes traveling to and from various cities land on the tarmac outside the glass windows, and there are also passengers from all over the world passing by.

Waiting to be left alone, and waiting for someone, he could only look at the elevator facing the two of them, with each other's silhouettes printed on the top.

After three seconds of silence, the two guys just thought of one thing dryly.

"Do you want to take the elevator together?"

Beside him, Li Xie asked him suddenly.

"No."

He was very happy to hear Chen Zhen say that they didn't need them to follow him. In fact, Fu Bailong, who didn't like taking elevators at all, also refused with a cold face.

"Oh, that's right, no one will just throw me a check this time, 'The Encounter Road is Narrow'."

This is what Li Xie said.

Mr. Fu himself, who was deliberately mentioned the "black history" by him, gritted his teeth in shame and remained silent.

But in this way, the atmosphere between the two seems to be not bad.

There are also subtleties that cannot be said.

Even the memories of when they first met three months ago were suddenly brought back together.

Afterwards, they just waited downstairs at the airport for more than ten minutes.

During this period, Chen Zhen and Lu Yiming, who had just gone up, had no phone calls.

Fu Bailong and Li Xie, who had been waiting downstairs, were also a little strange, wondering why Chen Zhen's father's plane hadn't arrived yet.

But Mr. Fu himself never thought of it.

Just when he discussed with Li Xie, and thought that it would be better to go up together to see what was going on.

As soon as he went up, he saw three people at the end who seemed to be having a fierce quarrel from a long distance away.

At the exit, a small old man who didn't even bring a few decent pieces of luggage was furious.

There is only a simple box around him, an old jacket tied on the waistband of his trousers, and some souvenirs brought from far away are thrown around.

But when Fu Bailong wondered what was going on.

This is an old man who still seems to be very angry.

It was really guessed by what Li Xie, the crow's mouth, said downstairs before.

Because in the next second, he and Li Xie saw that the old Professor Chen who met for the first time seemed to be staged some bloody plot, and suddenly pointed at the noses of his son and his son's boyfriend and shouted,

"I'm going to die here today! I won't agree to this kid entering our Chen family in the future! With him but without me! With me without him! You two break up with me now! Then return to the United States immediately, and Your mother arranged for your distant cousin to get married, do you understand?"

Li Xie: "..."

Fu Bailong: "..."
