"Congratulations on your promotion." I said hypocritically.
She shook her head, "Where did you hear about my promotion?"
"From a friend." I replied.
"Your friend? Do I know him?" she asked.
I shook my head, "Maybe I don't know him."
"I understand." She laughed, "Your friend has something to do with me, right?"
Of course I know the process of her analysis, but I came to talk to her today, so I didn't intend to hide anything from her. "That's it, the boyfriend of the small village where we had dinner together recently came to find me.
, he wants me to tell you something."
"Oh? Then you can talk about it first," she said.
"Her boyfriend is in business. He wants to build a cemetery with your civil affairs department." So, I told Song Mei's idea.
"That's it." She pondered, "This matter is very troublesome. By the way, has he chosen a good place? Does he have a project proposal and a feasibility study report?"
I was stunned and said, "I don't know."
She looked at me for a while and then suddenly laughed, "Both he and you don't understand our line of work."
I hurriedly said: "I don't understand for sure, but he must understand. He just asked me to ask you if there is any possibility of operating this matter. If so, he will naturally discuss it with you in detail."
She nodded, "That's right. But this matter is too big, and I've just been transferred to the provincial department. I can't make the decision on such a matter."
I was a little disappointed, but I still understood her very well, "I know. I'm just asking for him."
We didn't talk about it again after that.
"Feng Xiao, I have regarded you as a friend. Do you think we are friends?" she asked.
"Of course, otherwise why would I treat you to dinner?" I said.
But she shook her head, "No, I don't think you really regard me as your friend. Because we have been together so many times, you have never asked me about personal matters, such as what my previous husband did, what I
Do you have children, etc. You have been carefully avoiding my personal matters. So, I think you appear to me more as a doctor."
I immediately felt ashamed because what she said was true.
"Feng Xiao, I am a woman, and you are the only one who knows my most private things until now. To be honest, at the beginning, I had to treat you as a friend because of this, because I need you to keep it secret for me.
But it’s different now, because I found that you are a really good person. Not only do you have a strong sense of professionalism, but more importantly, you have a very good character. Maybe in the eyes of others, I am so beautiful and so aloof.
, but no one knows the pain in my heart. I am a woman, and I am a failure in marriage. I have to bear a lot of pain silently. Feng Xiao, I really hope I have a close friend." She said.
, burst into tears.
I was very touched. "Sister Lin, if you think I can still be trusted, then you can treat me as your friend. From now on, you can tell me everything about yourself."
"Thank you." She said to me while wiping her tears, and then asked me: "Have you always wanted to ask me who my former husband was?"
I nodded, "Yes. I'm just curious. But I'm a doctor, and I'm also an obstetrician and gynecologist. All I see are patients' privacy. So although I am curious about some things, I don't take the initiative to ask about other people's family affairs.
.So Sister Lin, you can talk about it if you want."
"You are my friend. Of course I can tell you. But I also want to know your situation. Otherwise it will not be fair between us. Don't you think so?" she said, and then laughed.
"Okay, my situation is very simple, you can know anything you want."
"Is the person who asked you for help this time your friend?" she asked suddenly.
I was startled, then shook my head and said, "No. But he is very important to me."
She looked at me in surprise, "What does this mean? Tell me."
I was silent for a while, and then told her about Chen Yuan.
"Feng Xiao, you have so little confidence in the police?" she asked me in surprise after hearing this.
I shook my head, "It's not that I don't have confidence, it's actually the case. It's been so long, but the police have made no progress at all. This is often the case in this world, and capable people may not always be in that position."
She looked at me with a strange smile on her face. I suddenly felt that something was wrong with what I just said, "Sister Lin, I'm not talking about you."
She laughed and sighed randomly: "I know the girl you are talking about. I remember she seemed to be very beautiful and played the piano very well. Oh! What a pity. People often say that 'beauties are unlucky.' I never thought that such a thing would happen.
On her."
"Yeah. It's so pitiful." I also sighed.
"Feng Xiao, let me ask you a question, don't be angry." She suddenly said to me, "If it weren't for that girl, if the girl who had the trouble wasn't so beautiful, would you have done this?"
I was suddenly stunned.
"You don't have to answer this question." She looked at me and smiled.
I smiled bitterly, "Sister Lin, do you want me to tell the truth or a lie?"
"What is the truth? What is a lie?" she asked.
"The lie is: I would do the same thing. The truth...ahem! If it weren't for this girl, I probably wouldn't do this."
She laughed.
"When any beautiful thing is destroyed, it will make people regretful or angry. That girl is so beautiful, plays the piano so well, and her life experience is so tragic. I didn't expect that she would have to endure such a disaster. So, I
I feel that I should help her. There are not many beautiful things in this world anymore, and I can't bear to watch things like this develop like this. Maybe my power is very small and insignificant, but I feel that I should try my best.
"I continued. I found that only at this moment did I truly understand my heart.
"Feng Xiao. What you said is so good." She sighed, her expression gloomy.
"Now I realize that I am not so noble. Haha! If the girl who was hurt was not the girl, I really would not necessarily help her like this." I said with a wry smile.
"Feng Xiao, you are very honest. This is a rare quality for a person. In addition, you treat your patients with sincere care. You will definitely become an excellent obstetrician and gynecologist in the future. So, I am honored.
, it's an honor to be your friend." She said, and then raised her glass to me, "Come on, let me respect you."
I was extremely ashamed, "Sister Lin, I'm not as good as you said."
She smiled at me and said: "I have been in the officialdom for so many years, but I still can't figure out what kind of person you are? When you told me about that incident just now, I discovered that you are not that person at all.
You asked me to help you for your own benefit, because you were so calm after I told you that things were very troublesome. Now there are fewer and fewer people like you. Alas! It's not easy to maintain innocence like you.
"
"Haha! You might as well just criticize me for being stupid." I smiled bitterly.
"I'm not stupid. Hey! In fact, I also want to do that, but I can't do it. Officialdom is a world of intrigues. In officialdom, innocent people cannot survive. Innocence is great, but it's a pity that I can't do it again in this life.
I have no connection with it anymore. No, I hope I can feel like this when I am with you." She said.
"I am a simple-minded person and don't think about such complicated things. This is actually a way of being lazy. I rely on my own skills to make a living and am too lazy to think about so many things." I laughed.
"Isn't this a kind of happiness?" she sighed.
I suddenly remembered the previous question, "Sister Lin, didn't you say you wanted to tell me about your previous man?"
She looked at me and smiled, "It seems you are still very curious."
I shook my head, "Curiosity is just one aspect. I've been thinking that you can't live like this anymore. I just want to understand your situation and see if I can help you."
She looked at me, tears shining in her eyes, "Feng Xiao, thank you."
"He is the boss of a state-owned enterprise in our province." Lin Yu then told me the story of her former family. She told it very briefly, telling more about the struggle and love between her and him. "Later he changed.
After I joined a state-owned enterprise, I became surrounded by many beautiful girls, so I became disappointed with my marriage and asked him for divorce many times. But he didn't dare because a divorce would affect his career. Then I thought, so be it.
Since you can find a woman, why can't I find a man? But men are very selfish. They take their betrayal of marriage as a matter of course, but they will never allow their wife Hongxing to cheat on me. So he started to interfere with me.
life, but he still hangs out with those pretty little girls as before. The girl who is hospitalized in your hospital is one of them. In fact, for me, marriage has long become an empty shell.
I am willing to continue to maintain his career and my own. However, since he interferes in my personal life, I feel that I cannot let it go. That day, I went to the hospital to teach that girl a lesson. But,
What I didn't expect was that he beat me severely after returning home. That was the first time he beat me. Although many things happened after we got married, he had never laid hands on me before that.
I was so angry that I asked him for a divorce. I told him that if he didn't agree, I would report it to his superior. So he agreed. However, something happened not long after, and I don't know who went there.
His superior reported something about his lifestyle, so he was punished and demoted. He thought it was me who did it, and then he took that method to retaliate against me."
"What about the girl named Yu Min? What happened to her?" I asked.
"I don't know." She shook her head.
"I understand." I couldn't help but sigh, "I understand why you didn't sue him. First, it was because you were worried about affecting your career, and second, he didn't report some of your matters to your superiors after all. Yes.
It's not like this?"
"This is only part of the reason. Hey! Don't talk about it. But it's over now, completely over. He won't come to trouble me again." She let out a long sigh.
"What?" I don't understand.
"Maybe he himself feels that he has gone too far. He came to see me a few days ago and said that he would never trouble me again. Feng Xiao, I sometimes feel that life is really boring. I think back then, I and I
His feelings are so deep. But who knows? In the end, they will become like enemies. Alas!" She sighed again. (To be continued)
