[Rebirth to the Future] Diplomacy

"You are no longer suitable to stay in the army, go find this person." Chief Zhang Bingwu said to Fan Liyun, "I will give you a letter of recommendation."

Fan Liyun did not expect that he had the highest score and the highest team score in this task, but he got such a result.He clenched his fists: "Why?"

Zhang Bingwu said: "Your father came here, and he told us some things. You should also know that your application for the military academy is against the rules."

Fan Liyun's expression darkened.

There was indeed strong opposition from his family when he applied for the military academy, but he never imagined that his father would have the heart to cut off his future by himself.The Fan family has also been brilliant for a long time, is it destined to decline slowly like this?The Fan family without military achievements is not even as good as the last family in the empire!

Fan Liyun knew that he had no way to change Zhang Bingwu's decision at this time, so he said calmly, "Okay."

Fan Liyun came to the west with a letter of recommendation, and soon met his future teacher Shen Yuguang.Fan Liyun didn't feel sad for too long because he lost his military post, and he put away his thoughts immediately after recognizing his teacher.

Shen Yuguang was very satisfied with Fan Liyun, a student, and took Fan Liyun to run around Haizhou.Two years later, Yunlaigang began to develop, and Fan Liyun followed another student of Shen Yuguang to Haizhou to take over the marginal city that was still in chaos.

Fan Liyun had always known what he wanted, and even if he could no longer return to the army, he could still do something for the empire in other ways—after knowing that it was hopeless to revive the Fan family, this was the only thing he felt he could give to the empire. A path to a little relief for yourself.

After all, he didn't have the same enthusiasm for the political world as he did in the military, and this depressed feeling accumulated in his heart. Over time, everyone knew that he was a serious person.

I don't know how long these days have passed. One day, Shen Yuguang suddenly said to him: "Pay attention to this child."

Fan Liyun got a document. The person on the document was still very young, but his expression was calm, as if there was a mature soul living in his body.After carefully reviewing the information, Fan Liyun felt that according to this person's age, he shouldn't have behaved like that at all—before graduating from public school, he had already supported the entire family, established his own network of contacts, and held connections with all parties. He has learned the language well and speaks fluent Soud.Awards, large and small, are listed on the entire paper, and no one knows how he did it. After people noticed him, he had already made his resume extremely perfect.

So perfect it's unreal.

Fan Liyun also noticed his younger brother, Rong Letang. According to information, his mother had already divorced his father, and it was impossible for him to have another younger brother.As soon as Rong Junlin's wife's due date corresponds to Rong Letang's, Rong Letang's identity is ready to be revealed.

Compared with Rong Pei who was so good at managing himself at a young age, Fan Liyun was more concerned about Rong Letang's situation.Father Rong thought he had done a good thing by protecting Le Tang tightly through adoption, but in fact, a discerning person would know what was going on at a glance.With such an unreliable father, Fan Liyun didn't think that Le Tang's life could be well protected.

Fan Liyun was thinking about how to take a good look at Le Tang's life so as not to look awkward, when an application was handed over to his desk. He was already very familiar with the applicant's name: Rong Pei.

Fan Liyun thought about it and agreed to Rong Pei's application.As Rong Pei's mentor, he just had an excuse to visit Rong's family.

When Fan Liyun met Rong Pei for the first time, Rong Pei was only 15 years old and had not yet graduated from public school.After meeting face-to-face, Fan Liyun discovered that Rong Pei not only had a good resume, but he was also straightforward and unequivocal in his actions.

What's even more rare is that Rong Pei's thinking seems to have skipped his age group, almost completely synchronized with him.

Fan Liyun has to admit that there are such people in the world - he has always been better than others, as long as he shows his talent and will, he can easily compare you.

Fan Liyun gradually let go of his prejudice against Rong Pei—or his prejudice against politicians, and accepted Rong Pei, who was half his student.

The deeper the understanding, the more Fan Liyun couldn't see Rong Pei clearly.Rong Pei has many friends, and Rong Pei has countless teachers who praise him very much, but there always seems to be an indelible vacuum around Rong Pei, separating him from the world forcibly.

When Rong Pei suppressed his usual smile, the expression on his face seemed to be condensed with the most indelible frost in the world, cold and devoid of any emotion.

If you can't see through, you can't see through, Fan Liyun still hasn't forgotten his original intention to see Le Tang.He found a suitable time, and said to Rong Pei without any trace: "Is there no arrangement for the rest day? I'll go to your house for a while."

Rong Pei was in a daze for a moment, and then he laughed: "Okay, our house is a bit lively recently, Senior Brother Fan, don't be too noisy."

Fan Liyun soon understood what Rong Pei was talking about. It turned out that the Rong family had a lot of visitors: a kid from the Qu family who came to eat every weekend, and a young master from the Gao family who had been planning to go to the Rong family recently.It's okay for these two people to come one, but it's not good to come two. Every time they say less than three sentences, they will quarrel.

When Fan Liyun knocked on the door of the house, Gao Jingting was grabbing Rong Pei to complain, saying that the Qu family kid bullied him again, and said viciously: "If you didn't give me a hand, I would have punched him flat."

Rong Pei comforted Gao Jingting with a good voice, and when he heard the knock on the door, he stood up and opened the door for Fan Liyun as if he had been pardoned.

Fan Liyun finally met Rong Letang.

Le Tang was raised by Rong's father not at all like his father. When Gao Jingting and Qu Ze were pestering him together, he would always stare at them sullenly, but he couldn't do anything to drive them away. His personality was extremely soft. .

Rong Junlin was the only politician who convinced Fan Liyun. Seeing that Rong Junlin's son turned out to be such a child, he felt a little disappointed.

Disappointed with Le Tang, Fan Liyun became stricter with Rong Pei.

Rong Pei often asks with a smile: "How much do you expect from me? Do you demand me with the highest decision-maker's standards?" Jokes are jokes, and he will always complete the tasks given to him seriously.

In terms of the criteria for evaluating the mentor-mentee relationship, both of them are far more complete than the other.

This kind of superhuman part accumulated step by step, silently drawing the relationship between them closer.

During his last month as Rongbai's mentor, he and Rongbai climbed the snow ridge.Yunlaigang has gradually developed over the years. Only Xueling at the junction of Haizhou and Yunlaigang is still extremely poor. The reason is a bit ridiculous, because the boundary of Xueling is unclear, and Haizhou and Yunlaigang It was left out in the planning, and over time, the place became almost deserted.

Fan Liyun was so busy every day that he didn't touch the ground. With Rong Pei as his helper, he slowly freed up to learn about Xueling's situation.

After walking through the snowy mountains for more than half a month, Fan Liyun realized what an important treasure he had missed.Xueling relies on the tung tree all the year round, and the juice it secretes has a very good effect on skin regeneration, but the project has not been approved, and it is impossible to produce it as a regular medicine. Except for the locals in Xueling, almost no one heard it.

This is what Rong Pei set out.

He was very excited when he learned about this situation, and planned a detailed case with Rong Pei all night.

Unknowingly, he has regarded Rong Pei as an equal person, and he also treats Rong Pei as a peer when communicating.

After a night of talking in the snow, Fan Liyun fell ill the next day.The cause was obvious. During this period of time, he was worried about Xueling's condition, he didn't rest well, he was thinking too much, and with the cold air entering his body overnight, it was difficult for him not to get sick.

Fan Liyun vaguely felt that someone was taking care of him. While half asleep, that person sat in front of his bed, stretched out his hand to brush the calluses between his fingers, and sighed, "How could there be someone like you..." His tone was unexpected With a bit of helplessness and a bit of a smile.

What is hidden deeper is the coldness hidden under the words that penetrates everything.

That's right, cool.

It feels like I have experienced too much, so when I see someone throwing their heads and blood for what is in their hearts, and seeing someone smiling for a short gathering, I will take a little bit Sneering: How can there be such a stupid person?

What can what you insist on bring you?

How long can you be together for the reunion you are looking forward to?

It is better to see the realities clearly in the first place and stop expecting them.

Fan Liyun thought of the pain he suffered when he was forced to leave the army, and the regrets that he could not forget over the past ten years. Although his heart ached, he felt that if he did it all over again, he would still make the same choice and go that route. The old path that doesn't work, as long as hope is not extinguished and there is still a little light left, he will move towards it.This should be a person's instinct, the instinct to yearn for beauty and warmth - what have you experienced to lose this instinct?

He could hardly see the person in front of him clearly, but his palm grasped the opponent's hand presumptuously, quickly, and then slowly tightened.

The temperature of the palms of the two people slowly blended together, giving people a warm and nostalgic feeling.

The figure of the other party was fixed by the bed, and he did not leave until he fell into a coma again.

When Fan Liyun woke up again, Rong Pei said to him: "I want to pursue you."

Fan Liyun reprimanded: "Don't make trouble!"

Rong Pei's next actions told him that it was not a joke, and Rong Pei appeared more and more in his life.

Rong Pei made friends with his friends, and said to them with a smile: "Senior Brother Fan is actually very easy to get along with, don't be intimidated by his cold face."

Rong Pei can always know when he forgot to eat, and the meal will be delivered to his table in a mysterious way.Telling him not to waste his time, he threatened instead: "If you don't eat on time, I will move to your next door and keep an eye on you."

Fan Liyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, this is the same as moving next door to him, right?

Rong Pei pervaded his life. Fan Liyun knew that he should refuse, but he still couldn't make up his mind to refuse.

He felt that he might never find a more suitable partner than Rong Pei in his life, and after the mentoring period was over, he should probably pursue Rong Pei instead—after all, he was much older than Rong Pei, and this kind of He should be the one to take the initiative.

With a decision in his heart, his attitude towards Rong Pei also gradually changed.Rong Pei was the most sensitive person, and immediately climbed up the pole, and the two of them tacitly enjoyed the unknown sweetness.

Fan Liyun asked Rong Pei to go to Xueling to check the results after the guidance period, and Rong Pei happily agreed. At that moment, Fan Liyun felt that Rong Pei was really happy—the smile was a little different from before.

However, just as he was about to leave for Xueling, a call invitation from his teacher Shen Yuguang came over.Fan Liyun didn't know why Shen Yuguang was looking for him at this time, so he immediately accepted the invitation and respectfully called: "Teacher."

Maybe it was because of the unconcealed flying look on his brow that revealed something, Shen Yuguang's expression became extremely serious: "I heard that Rong Pei is pursuing you recently."

Fan Liyun raised his brows, thought for a while and told the truth: "Teacher... is there any problem?"

Shen Yuguang said: "You can't get along with him."

Fan Liyun clenched his fist slightly, but his face was still extremely calm: "I want to know why."

Shen Yuguang hesitated for a moment, then said, "He has a marriage contract."

Fan Liyun was taken aback, and said, "I don't believe it."

Shen Yuguang said: "You know who he has a marriage contract with, Gao Jingting. Didn't you find out? He has shared a dorm with Gao Jingting since he was a child. If he and Gao Jingting were just good friends, would the Gao family be so relieved?"

Once there are clues to some things, the truth will quickly be connected in series.

If Rong Pei and Gao Jingting have a marriage contract, how does Rong Pei play the so-called "pursuit" confidently?

Seeing that he was wavering, Shen Yuguang continued: "And have you ever thought about your physical problems? He has already entered the attention of many people. Even if you can win over Gao's family, you may still get angry. If someone grabs you You did not let go of applying for the military academy "knowingly" at the beginning, do you think you can deal with it well and not drag him down? You have your persistence, you have your ambition, we all see it, so we help I kept everything from you. If your affairs are found out, your old officer Zhang Bingwu and I will be implicated—if you are ready to face all this, then you can act according to your own will.”

Fan Liyun's brows twitched, and he didn't recover until he drove to the bottom of the snowy ridge.

Seeing Rong Pei sitting in the reserved homestay and chatting with the store owner, Fan Liyun also sat down opposite him, learning about Xueling's current situation word by word.

After dinner and only the two of them were left, Rong Pei looked at Fan Liyun and asked, "Senior Brother Fan, something is wrong with you today..."

Fan Liyun met his gaze and said slowly, "What's wrong?"

Rong Pei said with a smile: "Until just now, you didn't give me half a look."

Fan Liyun's heart tightened instantly when he heard his half-truth and half-fake complaints.After a pause, he said coldly, "From tomorrow on, stop doing those boring things."

Rong Pei's face changed, and he said with a stiff face: "What is a boring thing? Does it mean that I like you, or that you are preparing to accept my pursuit?"

"It's your self-righteous pursuit." Fan Liyun said: "Actually, what I hate the most is people like you who only know how to make money and how to make a good resume. They have been assimilated by the dirty water of the political world. From the file you handed over, I hate you."

Rong Pei calmly admitted his words: "That's right, that's the kind of person I am." He raised his head and looked into Fan Liyun's eyes, "Since you hate people like me so much, why did you agree to be my mentor?"

Fan Liyun said calmly: "Because you have the son of the person I respect the most in your family, and I have no reason to meet him—and it is a very good reason to be your mentor."

Rong Pei had a good memory, and soon remembered that Fan Liyun had asked to visit his house without any trace.

At that time, he thought that Fan Liyun made such a request because he had a strong sense of responsibility and wanted to know about his family's situation.

When Fan Liyun said this, he connected everything together.The only Rong family that Fan Liyun respected was Fan Liyun, and his son was Le Tang.

It's Le Tang again...

Rong Pei couldn't calm down, but his tone turned cold: "So you let me pursue you because you want to get closer to Le Tang?"

When Fan Liyun said "yes", Rong Pei punched him in the face.

This is the first time that Rong Pei lost his composure in front of him.

With the first punch, there will be a second punch and a third punch.

Fan Liyun had paint on his face and body, but he didn't fight back, as if he knew he was wrong.

The more he was like this, the more Rong Pei couldn't calm down, and finally Rong Pei stopped by himself.

There was no smile on his face, and it was covered with frost that seemed to never melt as he had seen inadvertently in the past.

After Rong Pei stopped moving for a long time, Fan Liyun looked at him and said, "You are 12 years younger than me, and you are just a child to me." Rong Pei sarcastically lost his demeanor: "Why didn't you say that at the beginning? "

"I thought you weren't serious at first." He looked at Rong Pei, and added in a deep voice, "——you can't be serious either." Rong Pei seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly became quiet.

Fan Liyun heard his own voice say: "You have a marriage contract."

The snow fell silently on the snowy ridge, and the north wind rolled up the snowflakes, as if trying to say something with its voice that was so hoarse that it could no longer make any sound.

In the end, the snowflakes were allowed to fall to the ground without a sound.

Covered with snow and white.
