fire rescue

"Mom..." Zheng Yi covered his face and called his mother, but saw that the circles of her mother's eyes were red, and after being angry, she was extremely sad.

He neither admitted nor denied it.

But in Chu Hongxia's eyes, this performance was her son acquiescing to the speculation caused by what she saw with her own eyes. She admitted that the slap was a little impulsive, but otherwise there was no way to force out the truth.Chu Hongxia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice trembling, "It's my fate. When I was young, I met that bastard Zheng Xiaoli, and after following Wang Qiyuan for so many years, I still didn't get anything. I finally hoped for you. Who knows? , who knew you..."

"Mom..." Zheng Yi didn't want his mother to say any more.

But Chu Hongxia waved her hand and said, "Xiao Yi, don't tell me, I've seen it all. At first I thought I was wrong, it was so dark, and there was only a street light below, but I suddenly remembered that when you were in college The kind of intimacy he showed when he brought home, I told myself at the time that it was an illusion, but when I think about it today, I am really scared, because I didn’t find any clues after I realized it. No wonder you I don’t want to find a partner, I don’t want to talk about friends, today I understand.”

After the great sorrow and great joy, Zheng Yi originally thought that everything would return to calm, but what he faced was a new and more difficult problem.

"Zheng Yi, do you know that this is not normal? Bai Hewei helped you today, and he helped you before. I can't blame him, but you are my son. I can only make you normal. I I can't let you go farther and farther on the crooked road. You work in a government unit, what will happen if people find out? I can't let my son be ridiculed by others poking his spine! He won't be afraid of anything, his father is a big leader , fart, others say it's delicious."

Normal, what is normal, is it normal to go against the wishes of one's heart and go to a path that everyone walks?Zheng Yi was also confused.

Seeing that Zheng Yi was still silent, Chu Hongxia said, "You give him a call and just break up with him."

"Mom, I..." Zheng Yi subconsciously covered the phone in his pocket, trying to convince his mother, but the moment he opened his mouth, the conversation was interrupted.

"Zheng Yi, don't let me down again."

Zheng Yi looked at his mother, she had half of her head of white hair, her forehead and the corners of her eyes were covered with wrinkles due to the ill-fated fate. , she looks a little older.Zheng Yi knows that his mother is full of expectations for his life. Once upon a time, he was the only capital for his mother to show off to the neighbors. She would often say: "Look at my son, he will have a stable job after graduation. A stable job..." Because apart from herself, my mother seemed to have nothing else to show others in her life.Now, this only pride has been covered with dust, Zheng Yi really can't bear it.But Bai Hewei, the person he has followed since college, is his hope and sunshine. He loves him very much, and loves him so humblely to the bottom of his heart. Now that he is finally standing behind him again, he has to separate from him again. How cruel to Zheng Yi.

Seeing her son not moving, Chu Hongxia urged again: "If you don't make this call today, I will go to Bai Hewei's work tomorrow. His father seems to be some kind of deputy mayor, or I will go to his father..."

"Mom, don't, I beg you, don't do this, don't force me." Zheng Yi's nose soured, tears also fell, he couldn't let his wishful thinking and selfishness affect Bai Hewei.

Chu Hongxia walked up to Zheng Yi, reached out to wipe away the tears on Zheng Yi's face, and begged, "Zheng Yi, even if Mom begs you, don't go further and further down this crooked road."

Zheng Yi took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and under his mother's watchful eyes, he shook his hands and broadcast the series of calls that were too familiar.

"Hey, senior, it's me..."

Bai Hewei was about to say goodbye to Wu Zhuofeng when the ringing of his mobile phone broke the silence of the night. Seeing that it was Zheng Yi, he picked it up without thinking about anything else.

"Hey, senior, it's me..."

"Well, are you home?" Bai Hewei asked, raising his eyes to see Wu Zhuofeng's meaningful smile.

"I'm home, senior. I want to tell you something. Is it convenient for you?" Zheng Yi's voice was very low, and he seemed not in high spirits. He couldn't tell the difference unless he listened carefully.

"Go ahead."

"We, we..."

Zheng Yi hesitated, wanted to say something but didn't want to say it quickly, Bai Hewei was in a hurry, after all, he was still here with Wu Zhuofeng, it was not convenient to speak, so he urged: "If you have something to say, say it quickly."

"Ah."

Bai Hewei clearly heard Zheng Yi sniff his nose and clear his throat again, his voice finally got louder, "Senior, I can't follow you anymore."

As soon as the words fell, Bai Hewei thought he heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked: "Zheng Yi, what did you say?"

"Senior..." Zheng Yi's voice was already crying, "I said I can't follow you anymore, let's just divide up like this."

Bai Hewei finally heard it clearly. For a moment, his brain short-circuited. He really wanted to ask why, but Wu Zhuofeng really couldn't ask. When he wanted to say something again, the phone had been blocked. Hang up.Bai Hewei felt baffled, and even grinned to laugh. After all, he was still showing off to Wu Zhuofeng about Zheng Yi's infatuation with him 10 minutes ago, saying that if he didn't open his mouth, that guy would follow him with all his heart. .

Bai Hewei pretended to be nonchalant and took back the phone, but his expression changed. Wu Zhuofeng also noticed this, and asked inquiringly, "He Wei, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's all right."

"It's fine."

Bai Hewei put the phone back in his pocket, stood up, and said, "Old Wu, it's getting late, I'll go back first."

"Well, let's go, drive slowly on the way back." Wu Zhuofeng also stood up, put on his coat, and wanted to see him off.

"Don't give it away." Bai Hewei said, "Well, I will leave Zheng Yi's matter to you, and his father, their mother and child are very pitiful."

Wu Zhuofeng patted Bai Hewei on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best."

At this time, the building of the Public Security Bureau had become extremely quiet. Bai Hewei looked at his watch, it was less than nine o'clock.When he went downstairs, he wondered if he was dreaming just now, why he received such an unknown call, and announced the result without saying the reason.All along, he, Bai Hewei, was the one who rejected others. No one had ever taken the initiative to get rid of him, and this person was still Zheng Yi who was eager to stay by his side for the rest of his life.Tat for tat, maybe that guy suddenly realized his ruthlessness back then, and felt boring.Bai Hewei didn't intend to ask Zheng Yi why, it was his bottom line not to be nostalgic after the breakup, he didn't know the reason, it was just such a short period of physical entanglement, and there was no emotion at all, but why was there a big gap in his heart? No matter how much you smoke, you can't fill it up. It wasn't like that back then.

Zheng Yi seemed to have returned to his old life, sometimes peaceful and sometimes busy.The fire prevention period has passed, and he spends more time sitting in the office and less time going to the countryside. He has to stay in the town except on duty, and basically goes home every night. in the bedroom.Since that night, Zheng Yi seldom went back to his house in the town, and he did not dare to stay too long when he went there once in a while, for fear that some charming memories would touch the switch of sadness and make him feel sad.He deeply realized that he might lose Bai Hewei forever in this breakup. Although he brought it up first, it was more painful than the one in college. He couldn't show this kind of pain in front of his mother. As long as he entered the house, he would pretend to be nonchalant and talk and laugh with his mother, as if nothing had happened.

His mother started looking for a blind date for him, and asked many old sisters, and asked Zheng Yi to contact other girls every now and then. Zheng Yi was not in the mood, but he didn't dare to resist, and almost racked his brains to find a reasonable reason to persuade him to refuse. Mother, he didn't dare to be too obvious. He went on a few blind dates selectively, and when he got there, he explained what he said to others, and asked the other party to take the initiative to propose that it was inappropriate, for fear of offending his mother.

Half a month after that day, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau surnamed Wu called Zheng Yi and said to Zheng Yi: "Zheng Xiaoli confessed that he had raped women many times and participated in gambling, and his case is currently under trial. , He Wei has done everything that I have done for you, you and your mother can rest assured that he will not be able to trouble you again for a long time."

Zheng Yigang said thank you, and Wu Zhuofeng said again: "By the way, I don't know if He Wei told you or not. He also asked me to help you transfer jobs, but the transfer of career establishments in the district is currently very stuck. I am here temporarily. There is no other way."

Zheng Yi was stunned at the time, and tentatively asked Wu Zhuofeng: "Did he not say he won't help me?"

"No, on the night when your accident happened, he chatted very late in my office. Didn't he answer your phone call? Before he left, he asked me to help you with things. I, I have never seen him say goodbye I have been so concerned about other people's affairs before. This guy is always stubborn in his mouth, but he still thinks of you in his heart, so don't let him down."

Zheng Yiwen felt a slight pain in his heart, which made him unable to think too much, so he asked casually, "You know everything about the two of us?"

"Yeah, actually I knew it a long time ago. But I didn't expect you to be together again." Wu Zhuofeng replied.

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Yifa was in a daze for a while, holding up the phone and didn't know what to do. The pain in his chest became severe, and tears dripped down uncontrollably again.

It was he who was sorry for Bai Hewei. He never felt that Bai Hewei owed him anything, but this time he felt that he owed Bai Hewei too much.

His embarrassment was interrupted by the phone ringing again. Qi Feng from the Forestry Administration Division of the Forestry Bureau called and said, "Are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes." Zheng Yi sorted out his mood.

"Tomorrow, we will go to the design company to work on the logging design. I'm sorry, it's been so long. We have received a batch of logging applications. Let's design together."

"No hurry, I'll call Cui Zhendong and ask him to prepare."

"Yes, please inform the neighbors."

"understood."

Work, maybe only work can make him forget these things.
