Seeing Gu Yantang's indescribable expression and the cold sweat on his head, Wen Shu instantly understood.

The two looked at each other for a long time.

It was only then that Wen Shu remembered to pull out his phone to check. Sure enough, the phone call records showed that there were several missed calls, one was from an unfamiliar number, and two of them were called by Wen Shengli 10 minutes ago.

It's only because Gu Yantang has a habit of being bombarded with phone calls whenever he has something to do, so Wen Shu has been turning off the notification sound of the phone and directly muted it.

In addition, they were so focused on playing tonight that they didn't pay attention to their phones at all.

Wen Shu thought of looking through the text messages on his phone, and sure enough, his father sent him a special message yesterday.

"Tomorrow night, our city TV station will broadcast a documentary interviewing me. Tomorrow, I will buy some delicious food and call Gu Yantang. I will come to your place and watch it with you."

At this moment, Wen Shu saw this text message, and he didn't know what it was like.On the one hand, there is deep self-blame, is work really that busy?Are you so busy that you don't have time to connect to your dad's phone and reply to a text message?

On the other hand, he was almost annoyed to the core. When he thought about what kind of scene Wen Shengli had seen and how much stimulation he had received, he worried that he would be so angry that he would have a heart attack.

Wen Shu felt like he was going crazy.

Although Wen Shu has gradually planned to come out to Wen Shengli since this year.But no matter which method he envisioned, he would do it step by step, step by step. He didn't expect that in reality, he used the most tragic method, challenging Wen Shengli's sensory and psychological limits.

After Wen Shu took a deep breath, he called Wen Shengli.After getting through, it was quickly hung up, then it didn't answer, and finally shut down.

Gu Yantang looked at Wen Shu who was burning with anxiety, and didn't know how he could help.After a while, he asked, "Did you say I'm going to look at your house?"

"You said he didn't even answer my calls, would he talk to you?" Wen Shu looked at him desperately and said, "I'm afraid that both of us will only add fuel to the fire now."

"I'm sorry." Gu Yantang thought for a long time, but could only apologize feebly.

Wen Shu knew in his heart that Gu Yantang couldn't be blamed for this matter. As far as he and Gu Yantang were in a close relationship, it would be a matter of time before Wen Shengli found out, but this time it was really sudden.At this moment, he was so anxious that he had no time to care about Gu Yantang's feelings.

Wen Shu tried his best to calm himself down. He called Yuan An on his mobile phone and got through, but Yuan An didn't answer.For a long time, if Yuan An didn't answer his call, there was only one situation, he was on a mission.

In desperation, he had no choice but to call the person who was most reluctant to ask for help——Dai Motong.Dai Motong answered the phone quite quickly.

"Are you free now? I need your help urgently."

"what's up?"

"..." Even in the urgent situation right now, Wen Shu still couldn't speak.What can he say?Said that he was making out with his current boyfriend, but he was bumped into by his father, so he came out of the closet out of nowhere?Then call your ex-boyfriend to clean up the mess?

This plot is too bloody like a family ethics drama at the [-] o'clock golden theater of a certain satellite TV, right?

Art really comes from life, because life is often more bloody than drama.

After Wen Shu stated the series of facts as concisely and objectively as possible, Dai Motong on the other end of the phone seemed to be silent for a while, as if he didn't know what to say, and seemed to be thinking about how to deal with this matter.

After a while, he comforted him: "Xiao Shu, since the matter has already happened, don't think too much about it. I'll go to your house to find your father right now, and report to you as soon as there is any situation."

"Thank you." Wen Shu thought for a long time, and finally said this.

"Then what can we do now?" Gu Yantang on the side was of course very upset about his asking for help from his ex-boyfriend, but he also knew that this was not the time to be jealous.

"Wait." Wen Shu glanced at him and replied.

Wen Shu turned on the TV, and sure enough, the local TV station in T City was broadcasting an interview about Wen Shengli.In the office, Wen Shengli sat upright in a black suit, talking to the interviewing reporters.The person who interviewed him was a young-looking female reporter from the TV station. Like Chai Jing, she exuded an intellectual aura.

When talking about a series of specific details of the Jiang Wenlong case, the reporter asked: "After discovering so many doubtful points in this case, how many registered letters have you written to the Shangluo City Intermediate People's Court stating the facts of the case? You wrote the letter at the beginning Do you firmly believe that you will receive an answer when you are here?"

Wen Shengli replied: "I wrote five registered letters, which took almost half a year. There was no reply."

The reporter continued to ask: "No response? Not even a response to notify you that you have received the letter?"

Wen Shengli nodded and replied, "Yes. It's all gone."

"Then what supports you to continue to push this matter?"

"Because I am a prosecutor trained by the people, I can't bear to have people who have been wronged where I can see, just like Jiang Wenlong would ask me with full expectation every time he saw me, and then the disappointed I can't stand the look."

Wen Shengli said without thinking, without even a twinkle in his eyes.

"I heard that you finally received a reply by leapfrogging the appeal in your own name, right?"

"Yes. Leapfrogging appeals requires taking huge risks. If it fails in the end, it will become a stain on my 30-year working career, so I hesitated for a long time at that time."

"Then what made you firmly believe in making this happen, even if you took such a big risk?"

"Because I'm retiring soon, I don't want this case to be a blemish and a stain on my 30-plus years of work."

The female reporter nodded and continued to ask: "If you still haven't received a reply to this letter, what will you do?"

"I will continue to write and send it until I retire. Then pass this first-hand file to the next new prosecutor."

"It's like the public security department handing over unsolved cases to newcomers, right?"

"Yes, the torch is passed on."

"If you could give some good advice to prosecutors or civil servants who are new to this profession, what would you say?"

Wen Shengli thought about it for a while, and said solemnly to the camera: "There is a saying that has been widely circulated in society. Justice can be late, but it will never be absent. But this sentence has not been finished yet. Delayed justice is not justice."

Reporter: "I really rarely hear the latter sentence."

Wen Shengli: "Sometimes justice may come too late, but what we can do in this job is to try our best to see if it can come sooner. We not only have to believe it ourselves, but we must also make the parties believe it at this point."

……

Even in the current state of chaos, Wen Shu actually listened to every word Wen Shengli said.

At this time, the commended prosecutor who was chatting with journalists on TV seemed to be different from Wen Shuli, who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, kind but a little stubborn Wen Shengli.

Even though I still complain in my heart why this person is obviously very old and has so much gray hair, but he still has such a sense of middle school when he speaks.

But Wen Shu couldn't help but admit that what Wen Shengli said didn't sound very down-to-earth, and awakened the ultimate dream of "fairness and justice" buried deep in the heart of every public prosecutor.

Wen Shu recalled that on his first day as a prosecutor, a group of young people huddled together, raised their right hands, and took the oath together.

"I am a prosecutor of the People's Republic of China. I swear: to be loyal to the motherland, to the people, to the Constitution and laws, to faithfully perform legal supervision duties, to abide by procuratorial professional ethics, to maintain fairness and justice, and to maintain the unity of the legal system."

……

I don't know when he fell into deep thought, until he felt that Gu Yantang, who was standing at the side, was wiping the tears on his cheeks with a tissue, and Wen Shu realized that he had burst into tears unknowingly.

While comforting him, Gu Yantang exclaimed, "Uncle Wen is really amazing!"

This time, he didn't call him Wen Shengli, let alone the old man. For someone with Gu Yantang's personality, being able to say such a compliment probably really moved him.

But after hearing such words, Wen Shu wanted to cry even more.

Wen Shu thought, I have the best father in the world.He taught me to be a man of integrity and he gave me all his love.So even though I didn't have a mother at such a young age, I still feel that I grew up with a lot of love.

But why should I break his heart like this?

If possible, Wen Shu would also like to fulfill all of Wen Shengli's wishes—if such a possibility is really possible.Wen Shu really tried hard, but failed miserably.

After some time, Wen Shu's cell phone rang.

Dai Motong asked: "Xiao Shu, have you told your father about me?"

Wen Shu recalled the last time he went home and watched the news about Sun Yuanjun on TV. He did test Wen Shengli with Dai Motong as the topic.

"Once I accidentally said something wrong."

Dai Motong asked again: "Didn't you use me as an excuse to test your father?"

Wen Shu: "..." Wen Shu was speechless, feeling a little embarrassed that his innocence had been seen through.

Fortunately, Dai Motong did not delve into it, but comforted him and said: "Although your father scolded me, but fortunately he opened the door for me. He was a little emotional, but I prepared him with medicine for heart disease." It’s easy to put it aside. If there is any problem, I will notify you as soon as possible.”

"Thank you, senior." Wen Shu said after hearing this.

This "senior" probably awakened many warm memories of the past in Dai Motong's heart, and his tone of voice became much gentler: "Xiao Shu, don't worry for now. I will explain to Uncle Wen why there are people in this world who like the same sex , after all, I have much more experience than you in this regard."

Wen Shu: "..."

The call was on a foreign voice, and Gu Yantang, who had been listening with his ears pricked up, was obviously going crazy with jealousy, but all kinds of thoughts in his heart were fiercely fighting each other, and when they fell into his throat, they could only turn into a helpless sigh.

In the end, Gu Yantang had no choice but to run to the balcony to enjoy the cold wind. Perhaps it would be the greatest help for Wen Shu not to make trouble at this time.

After that, Wen Shu answered two more calls.

One was called by Su Xueqi, and as soon as she got through, she heard the girl's exclamation: "Your father is too handsome, isn't he? With that figure and the way he speaks, he is even more handsome than Chen Daoming!"

After admiring her for several minutes, she only got a "hmm" response from Wen Shu, and Su Xueqi finally realized the low pressure from the person on the other end of the phone belatedly.

"What's the matter? Little Shushu, are you unhappy?"

"I came out today."

"!!!??" Su Xueqi was so shocked that she didn't say a word for several minutes.

After Wen Shu briefly stated what happened, Su Xueqi said, "Wen Shu, although it seems that this level is very sad, for someone with an indecisive character like you, this may actually be a good thing."

Wen Shu: "..."

"I know you may say that I don't have back pain when I stand and talk, but I really think so in my heart."

Wen Shu: "..."

Su Xueqi explained again: "Xiao Shushu, think about it. You can't hide it from your father forever. If you can't hide it from him forever, wouldn't it be better to face it sooner than later?"

Wen Shu thought that before he met Gu Yantang, he originally wanted to keep Wen Shengli a secret for the rest of his life.

Su Xueqi was silent for a moment, then continued: "Even if you are really determined to keep it a secret for the rest of your life, are you able to fulfill your father's wish for you to get married and have children?"

Wen Shu: "..."

"And if that's the case, wouldn't it be unfair to Gu Yantang? He's such a good kid, but you broke him alive, and he can't give him a title—"

Hearing this, Wen Shu raised his eyebrows and interrupted her: "This is not true, I didn't break him."

Su Xueqi had already reached the point of her mouth, "Then you've become a scumbag." She was suppressed alive, and changed her words: "In short, the matter has already happened, and what you can do now is to face it well. If your father really ignores you , if there is anything I can help with, just call me. To tell you the truth, I’m actually pretty good at communicating with the elderly.”

Wen Shu thought that someone who was so busy preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination that he was so nervous that he could be so warm to him was a rare true friend.

The other person who called was Yuan An, because he and the traffic police had just arrested a female driver who had hit and run in traffic.He was so busy that he didn't sleep until midnight, so he naturally didn't have time to answer Wen Shu's call.

To be honest, even Wen Shu was too embarrassed to bother him.After all, Yuan An is a person who is so busy with work that he doesn't even have time for a relationship.

Wen Shu roughly talked about what happened. Now that the young talent Dai Motong is helping to take care of Wen Shengli, there shouldn't be any major problems.He Yuan'an's narration is purely a tree hole to confide in.

Yuan An is quite optimistic. He feels that the old man looks feudal, but he is actually stronger than he imagined. What's more, the relationship with his son is broken, and it's just hard to accept it for a while.But over time, acceptance is only a matter of time.
