In Jiangning after autumn, storms come and go quickly.
After a whole night of hard work, the sun became brighter and brighter the next morning, and the air became fresher.
Tang Feng woke up when the first ray of sunlight shone in through the window. His first reaction after waking up was to reach out and touch the side.
But next to me, there is nothing!
Tang Feng was suddenly shocked. Only then did he realize that Xiao Ruyin was no longer there. Maybe he was so crazy last night that he didn't even notice when Xiao Ruyin left.
Looking at the bright red drops on the bedside, Tang Feng suddenly felt a surge of complicated emotions in his heart.
After a while, he shook his head and sighed, then stood up and walked out of the hall.
On the mahogany table in the hall, there is a red letter. The handwriting on the envelope is elegant and beautiful, and it is Xiao Ruyin's handwriting.
Tang Feng walked over, picked up the envelope, and opened it.
"Brother Tang, I'm leaving. Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. Because of what happened last night, I really don't know how to face you. I don't even know how to face myself. In fact, I lied to you about my ticket to the United States. It’s today, not tomorrow, so when you wake up and see the letter, I’m already on a plane to the United States.”
"There is something I must tell you. I don't regret anything. I don't regret what happened last night at all. On the contrary, I am very happy and blessed!"
"I happened to read a poem a few days ago. The name of the poem is "To the Oak Tree". Now I want to share it with you: If I Love You
It’s definitely not like a climbing flower in the sky,
Use your high branches to show off yourself;
if i love you
Never imitate the infatuated bird,
Repeating monotonous songs for green shade;
Not just like a fountain,
Bringing cool comfort all year round;
It's not just like a dangerous peak, it increases your height and sets off your majesty.
Even daylight.
Even spring rain.
No, these are not enough!
I must be a kapok tree near you,
Standing with you as a tree.
Roots, clenched in the ground,
The leaves touch each other in the clouds.
Every gust of wind passes by,
We all greet each other,
but no one
Understand our words.
You have your copper branches and iron trunks,
Like a knife, like a sword,
Also like a halberd,
I have my red flowers,
Like a heavy sigh,
Like a heroic torch,
We share the cold wave, the wind and thunder, the thunderbolt;
We share the mist, liulan, and hauni,
As if separated forever,
But they are still dependent on each other for life,
This is great love,
Fidelity is here:
like
Not only do I love your majestic body,
I also love the position you insist on, the ground beneath your feet.”
"Brother Tang, I know that you joined the army when you were eight years old and have not received formal education. You may not be able to understand this poem, but I still want to tell you that I love you!"
"But, as the poem says, I will never be a climbing flower, nor will I be an infatuated bird. I will be a kapok tree next to you!"
"Brother Tang, I know that you are a sword-like man and a steel-like man. At present, I am far from worthy of you, so I decided to leave. I want to enrich myself and strengthen myself, because this is the only way. , only then can I stand with you as the image of a tree, and only then can I face the cold wave, wind, thunder and thunderbolt with you."
"Brother Tang, please wait for me, please wait for me. I will come back in one year, and I will come back confident and strong!"
"Brother Tang, what I want to tell you at the end is that I love you more than myself!"
…
After Tang Feng finished reading the whole article, the hand holding the letter was trembling slightly, and even his eyes were moist.
This man of steel has never shed a tear in his iron-blooded career for more than ten years. Even if he is in danger, he has never frowned. However, now, he was moved and shed two tears.
Who says a man won’t shed tears easily, but he hasn’t reached the depth of love yet!
Even though Tang Feng had no formal education and had never read this poem before, how could he not understand the content of the poem and the emotions Xiao Ruyin wanted to express.
After a long time, Tang Feng let out a long sigh and sat down on the sofa. At this moment, he was even more tired than when he crossed the entire Sahara Desert alone.
He didn't say anything, he just folded the letter very gently and slowly and put it into his pocket, as if he was putting the gentle, kind and strong woman who wrote this letter into his heart.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Feng took out his cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and blew out a long smoke ring.
When he was two-thirds of the way through the cigarette, he took out his cell phone and called Hong San.
When the call was connected, Hong San immediately said over there: "Brother called me suddenly, but what instructions do you have?"
Tang Feng said: "There is indeed something I need you to do."
Hong Sandao: "If anything happens, just ask me, brother."
Tang Feng said: "You find four people, four highly skilled and reliable bodyguards, and let them go to the United States."
Hong Sandao: "It's not hard to find people, but I don't know what important task my eldest brother has when he sends them to the United States?"
Tang Feng said: "It's not a major task, it's just asking them to secretly protect one person."
"To protect someone, who should you protect?" Hong San asked.
"This is Xiao Ruyin who was kidnapped last time. You should handle this matter right away. She will take today's flight to the United States. I think you should be able to find her." Tang Feng said.
Hong San nodded and said: "This won't trouble me, I'll send someone over right away."
Tang Feng nodded, thought for a while and said: "Also remember to tell them that they only need to protect her in secret. There is no need for Xiao Ruyin to find out. She is just going to study in the United States. If there are no special circumstances, there should be no trouble."
Hong San smiled and said: "I know this. My brother is doing this just to be safe. After all, my sister-in-law is studying in the United States. She is not like us in China. It is necessary to send some people there to protect her secretly."
Tang Feng nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it right away. As for the money..."
Hong San interrupted: "Brother, please don't talk to me about money. No matter how big the deal is, it's only a million at best. Last time you took over the Tiger King's property, you didn't take any of it, but I took the bulk here."
Tang Feng nodded and said: "Then I won't be polite to you. In addition, I will send my number to the four bodyguards. If anything happens to Xiao Ruyin, let them contact me as soon as possible!"
After the explanation, Tang Feng hung up the phone. Originally, he did this just in case, and for peace of mind. He didn't think anything could happen to Xiao Ruyin.
However, what he never expected was that Xiao Ruyin would encounter the most serious change in her life during this trip. Fortunately, Tang Feng made arrangements today and was able to save it in time.
Of course, this was something to talk about later. After smoking the remaining half of the cigarette, Tang Feng stood up and immediately walked outside.
Even though he was a little depressed because of Xiao Ruyin's incident, it was nothing to a man who had experienced the baptism of iron and blood.
Tang Feng knew that he still had a lot to do next, because tomorrow, he would return to the military.
The former Dragon-thorn King of Soldiers is about to return. When the Dragon-thorn moves, the situation will change!
[A few words, in fact, when I was writing this chapter, I hesitated for a long time whether to quote the entire poem, because I was worried that some younger readers might not be able to understand it, and they would not be able to understand Xiao Ruyin's view of love, but
If I don’t quote all of them, I feel that my words are not enough. Maybe some book friends, especially children, don’t agree with Xiao Ruyin’s departure to the United States, but I still wrote it because I think that leaving is for a better reunion.
