With that, I took a deep breath and drank the wine.


    Then I suddenly thought, maybe, everything is predestined.


    If Lao Li didn''t betray his love in those years, he would not marry his mother Li Shun. If he didn''t marry, there would be no premature and frail Li Shun. If Mu you had a little shunzi, there would be no saying that they would support Qiu Tong.


    Without their support, maybe Qiutong''s life will develop on another track, not necessarily come to Xinghai, not necessarily marry someone she doesn''t love, not necessarily meet me on the Yalu River cruise ship, not necessarily work in the same unit with me, and not necessarily become a bone in my heart


    In this way, all the happiness and misfortune, all the love and hate, all the hurt and pain, all seem to come from the evil that Lao Li did.


    In this way, I don''t know whether I should blame Lao Li or thank him.


    I looked at Lao Li with mixed feelings and said for a while, "why. Why do you want to ask me? Why don''t you ask Qiu Tong? "


    Lao Li said: "after all, a tong is my family. In the future, she will marry into our family. I didn''t want to let my family know about these things, including a tong, which will have a bad impact on the harmony of the family in the future."


    I said with a sarcastic tone: "are you afraid to destroy your own image of the future father-in-law in Qiutong''s mind?"


    Lao Li laughed bitterly again and nodded: "maybe Xiaoyi, what we are talking about today, I hope Only the two of us know. "


    I sighed and nodded, "well, Uncle Li, I promise you, I won''t tell anyone else."


    Although I said that, I didn''t take it seriously.


    Lao Li sighed and said, "actually, I know ah Shun is a poor boy, but anyway, he is also my son and the only root of our Li family As a child, a Shun has been spoiled and spoiled by your aunt and me since childhood. Now, at this stage, it''s the father''s fault if the son doesn''t teach. I''m responsible for educating my children. I''m sorry for a Shun Of course, I also know that she was wronged to let a tong marry a Shun But, but... "


    "But what?" I said.


    Lao Li did not go on, but sighed helplessly.


    I know Lao Li''s, but what''s the meaning behind it? Although a Shun doesn''t strive for success, he can''t be a bachelor to make the Li family last forever. Although a tong is wronged, the Li family won''t treat her badly. What''s more, the Li family is kind to a tong, and a tong is a good child who knows his kindness. What''s more, the Li family all like a tong very much. Although the Li family is down now, Luo is thin and dead A camel is bigger than a horse.


    I really think Lao Li and his wife are extremely selfish people. They only think about themselves from their own point of view, rather than other people''s feelings. Maybe this is their consistent character and style. They are not one family, they don''t go into one family. The tragic ending of the couple in officialdom may be determined by this character. It is an irrefutable truth that character decides fate.


    So think, I suddenly in the faint dissatisfaction with a bit of pleasure.


    I''m even glad that Aunt chairman didn''t get together with Lao Li in those years. She may not really feel happy living with such a selfish person as Lao Li.


    However, the pleasure was only for a moment, and then I felt deep sorrow and depression, which seemed to suffocate me.


    Lao Li, I don''t know who I am? For the chairman''s aunt? For Mrs. Li? For Li Shun? For autumn Tung? Or for myself? Or for that time


    I fell into almost suffocating general sorrow and depression, silent for a long time.


    Lao Li didn''t speak any more.


    We looked out of the window at the patter of autumn rain, all silent


    Tonight''s dinner with Lao Li let me know an amazing secret hidden in Lao Li''s heart. I really didn''t expect that Lao Li would have such a cross century relationship with his aunt, the chairman of the board of directors in Korea.


    I thought the secret was amazing, but I didn''t expect that the more amazing secret was still behind.


    And this even more amazing secret, at this time, Lao Li and I will not think of, not only Lao Li and I will not think of, even other people, including Qiu Tong, including Li Shun, including Lao Li''s wife, even the chairman''s aunt will not think of.


    The onlookers see clearly. I think all the onlookers and spectators around can guess a rough picture.


    At this time, it seems that there is only one step away from the revelation of that amazing secret.


    And this step, I do not know how far to go, how long to go.


    It''s a mouthful of food. Let''s go step by step.


    After dinner, I took a taxi to take Lao Li home. Now Lao Li is no longer the former vice mayor of Li government, director of public security, and vice chairman of the Chinese people''s Political Consultative Conference. He has no special car and has become a civilian. He has to take a taxi when he goes out.


    At the door of Lao Li''s house, Lao Li got off the car and I got off the car to see him off.


    In the bleak autumn rain, only the living room on the first floor of Lao Li''s villa was on. Obviously, it was Lao Li''s wife waiting for Lao Li to come home. The villa, which used to be crowded, is now deserted as the lonely heart of Lao Li and his wife.Suddenly there was a sense of desolation.


    "Uncle Li, go back and rest early." Standing in front of Lao Li''s house, I said to him.


    Lao Li nodded. He couldn''t see his face clearly in the night.


    "Xiaoyi, thank you..." Lao Li said.


    I wanted to laugh, but I didn''t. I seem to know why Lao Li thanks me, but I don''t know what he wants to thank me for?


    "By the way, Xiaoyi, let me ask you something." Lao Li said.


    "Well..." I look at Lao Li.


    "Recently How is Ah Shun? " Lao Li said.


    I hesitated in my heart, then nodded: "good He''s good over there. "


    "The explosion, he Is he really not hurt? " Lao Li said suddenly.


    I was stunned: "you Uncle Li, you are talking about the explosion. "


    "The bombing of Chiang Mai hotel." Lao Li said.


    "You How do you know? " I said.


    "I surf the Internet when I have nothing to do at home. What I see on the Internet But the information on the Internet is multifarious and unreliable. " Lao Li said.


    I see. Lao Li knew about the attempted assassination of Li Shun.


    I said, "it''s OK to get a slight injury."


    Lao Li nodded, then breathed softly, then sighed again.


    Then Lao Li asked me, "that Xiaoxue''s mother Zhang Mei, how are you over there? "


    I was stunned again, and then I woke up. It was obvious that Li Shun had told Mr. and Mrs. Li about Zhang Mei. Mr. and Mrs. Li knew that Li Shun had taken Zhang Mei away.


    It seems that it''s not only Li Shun''s idea to let Zhang Mei leave Xinghai and not let Zhang Mei see Xiaoxue, but also the meaning of Lao Li and his wife.


    Taking Zhang Mei away, not only will not disturb Qiutong and ensure Qiutong''s unshakable status, but also will greatly benefit Xiaoxue''s smooth growth and ensure Xiaoxue''s careful care and care, which is in line with the overall interests of the Li family.


    I said faintly: "fortunately, everything is fine with her over there."


    Lao Li then asked me, "Zhang Mei, have you really been taking drugs?"


    I said, "I used to take drugs. Now I should give up."


    In fact, I don''t know if Zhang Mei will return to the golden triangle. She follows Li Shun all day. Can she control herself?


    Lao Li nodded and said, "Xiaoyi, tell me the truth. Has a Shun been taking drugs?"


    When I was stunned, Lao Li asked if my own son was taking drugs? Li Shun has been taking drugs for so many years. He even asked me this question now. It seems that he has never known about Li Shun taking drugs. It seems that Li Shun has not admitted this in front of him.


    I said, "this is not a question for me."


    Lao Li''s eyes darkened. He bowed his head and sighed for a while. Then he opened the door and went in.


    I went back to the taxi and left.


    On the way back, thinking of the conversation with Lao Li tonight and the sentimental experience of Lao Li and his aunt, the chairman of the board, 30 years ago, I couldn''t help feeling a lot


    In the emotional world, it may be difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, perhaps, love and reality are inseparable, pure love, perhaps only in the air will find.


    Thinking of Lao Li and the chairman''s aunt, I can''t help thinking of Qiu Tong and me


    Character decides fate, but can fate change it?


    Buddha said: for those who have no chance with you, no matter how much you talk with them, it is nonsense. With you predestined relationship person, your existence can awaken him (her) all feelings. Some people are strange even after they have known each other for several years. There always seems to be a kind of separation between them, as if the flowers blooming on the other side are far away and untouchable. And some people are close at the moment of appearance, as if they were lost and recognized again


    There is an umbrella, hold for a long time, the rain stopped still refused to accept; there is a bunch of flowers, smell for a long time, withered also refused to lose; when the sun sets, and rises, everything has changed; to go, have gone; to leave, also did not leave; is time did not wait, or forget to take; once thought that the earth is long, originally just a misunderstanding; some love I can''t survive the passing years, but I can''t escape the youth here


    Back to the dormitory, it''s more than 10 p.m.


    Smoke a cigarette, just want to take a bath, mobile phone suddenly rang, a look, Fang patriotic call.


    "Brother Yi Wood''s gone. " On the phone, Fang Aiguo''s voice was a little nervous.


    "Why not see the law?" Fang Aiguo''s words sound mindless.


    "Jianguo just came back. Today it''s his turn to follow wood But Lost Where is wood? " Fang Aiguo said.


    I frowned: "what do you mean? Lost it? Don''t know where? What does that mean? "


    "Well Wood has been staying in the Crown Hotel today. In the evening, he went out by car with a few people. Jianguo kept up with him. He wandered around the city for a long time. When he arrived at a nightclub, wood''s car stopped and all the people on the car came down to the nightclub. Then the driver drove away."But there was no wood among the people who came down. Jianguo clearly saw that wood got out of the hotel and got on the bus. When he got to the nightclub, there was no one in the bus except the driver, but wood didn''t show up among the people who got off the bus." Fang Aiguo said.
