Chapter 955

But I was still a little worried, "Do you need me to call them?"

He hesitated for a moment and then said: "I'll fight."

I nodded, "Just say it's what I mean. The main thing is to check the problems in each department. By the way, call the logistics people, and pay special attention to safety hazards. The Spring Festival is coming soon, and I'm very excited

I’m worried that everyone has ignored this matter.”

He asked: "Should we call Dean Deng?"

I immediately understood what he meant: This guy still didn't want to call Chu Dingnan and Yun Tiancai. I shook my head and said, "Dean Chu or Dean Yun must go, Dean Deng... you should inform him too.

"

He just left.

Immediately, I started thinking about Tong Yao. I suddenly realized a question: is it appropriate for me to call her under the current circumstances? You know, she originally asked me to arrange Tong Yangxi to Jiangnan.

From the group? If I ask her now, will she think that I also went to her to accuse her? She must be upset enough now, and she may not be still under investigation...

After thinking about it for a long time, I still felt that it was not appropriate to call her directly. So I immediately left the office and drove to Tong Yao's mother's restaurant.

It's still early for dinner, so it's very quiet inside the restaurant. And the lights in the lobby are not turned on. It's winter, and when I entered, I felt it was dark inside, and it looked very uncomfortable.

A waiter came over to greet me. She knew that I was the real boss here.

I asked her: "Where is auntie?"

She said: "In the office upstairs."

I nodded, "I'll go find her. By the way, you should turn on the lights now, don't be so frugal. Customers who have never been here think it's closed."

She smiled and hurriedly ran to turn on the lights. I felt much more comfortable immediately. I don't like darkness because darkness makes people feel depressed.

When I entered the office, the old lady was reading her account books with her reading glasses on, looking very serious. However, she did not turn on the office light, so the light inside seemed a bit too dim.

I couldn't help laughing, and immediately turned on the light, "Auntie, what are you doing? It's so dark, how can you see?"

She raised her head and looked at me with a kind smile, "Dr. Feng is here? You haven't been here for a long time. Come and sit down."

I went over and sat down and said, "Auntie, you really don't need to be so frugal. I just asked them to turn on the lights below. Only when the lights are on can we attract customers to come in. Besides, it won't cost much in electricity bills."

She said: "No matter how little money is, is it still money? It's not that I'm too obsessed with money, but I think it shouldn't be wasted. Our generation has gone through so many hard times, so we don't have the heart to waste it."

I smiled and said, "Auntie, need and waste are two different things. For example, now, it's almost dinner time. If I am looking for a place to eat, I will definitely not come in if I see this place is dark.

You think so?"

In fact, my main purpose is not to discuss this matter with her, but to ask her about Tong Yao's current situation. Judging from her mood, it seems that Tong Yao has not had any big problems yet, at least she doesn't know about it yet.

That matter. So, I had to pretend to ask her about Tong Yao accidentally, lest she get anxious if she found out.

She smiled and said: "I am old, and unlike you young people, my mind is aging. Don't laugh at me."

So I took the opportunity to ask: "How is the business recently? You stay here every day, what do you do with Tong Yao eating? Does she come here every day? Although the food here is delicious, eating it every day is very unappetizing. You said so?

Bar?"

She sighed: "This girl! I don't know what she is busy with recently. I haven't seen her for a long time. Her job is special, so I can't ask her what she is doing. Dr. Feng

, can you help me ask? You happen to be here today, just call her and ask her to come for dinner. I will make tofu crucian carp for you personally. I won't put so much MSG."

My heart suddenly sank: Could something really happen? I hurriedly said to the old lady: "You'd better fight me, just say I'm here. I haven't seen her for a long time. I've been very busy recently.

I haven't had time to chat with her since I was transferred to another job."

The old lady looked at me in surprise, "Where have you been transferred?"

I replied with some pride: "I was transferred to the Provincial Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital. I became the director there. Haha!"

The old lady looked at me in surprise, "I knew you were very capable. It's great to be the dean. Just wait, I'll call Yaoyao right away. I have to congratulate you today."

I smiled and thought: I'm just waiting for you to make this call.

She was dialing from the landline on the desk, and I looked at her. However, I only saw her mouth move and then she put the phone down.

I looked at her, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head and said: "It's turned off. She must be working on some case. Hey! It's not good for a girl to do such a job."

I had a bad premonition in my heart, but I couldn't show it at all. I smiled and said: "Auntie, the police are all like this, the nature of the work determines it, there is no other way. Aren't we doctors the same? We go to the operating table.

You can only come down after finishing the work, and you have to turn off your phone. Auntie, I don’t have anything to do, but I haven’t been here for a long time, so I stopped by to take a look.”

She smiled kindly at me and said, "Sit down for a while and I'll make you some fish."

However, I am not in the mood to eat at all now, "Auntie, no need to trouble you. I have other things to do. Let's do it next time."

She started nagging, "This place is your shop, why are you so polite? If your business is not important, just eat here and go."

I hesitated immediately. At this moment, my mobile phone rang. I looked at it and found that it was an unfamiliar number. I was just trying to find a reason to leave, so I answered the call immediately.

The voice inside was a bit unfamiliar, but the way he called me immediately reminded me of who he was, "Brother-in-law, do you still remember me?"

It was Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Qing's brother. I couldn't help but smile bitterly: Didn't I tell him my true relationship with Zhuang Qing? Why did he still call me brother-in-law?

But I couldn't say much, "Oh, Brother Zhuang Yu, are you okay?"

He said: "I came to your hospital to look for you, and the people here said that you had been transferred to another unit. I asked them, but they didn't tell me what unit you were working in now."

I suddenly became unhappy, not with Zhuang Yu, but with the people in my former hospital: How long have I been away? Why have I become so indifferent? I asked him: "Where are you now? Looking for

What's wrong with me?"

He said: "I am in the hospital where you used to be. My sister asked me to come and wish you a happy new year."

I suddenly felt strange: Zhuang Qing? She asked her brother to come to pay me New Year greetings? What was going on? After thinking about it, I seemed to understand: Zhuang Qing must have wanted to take this opportunity to ease the estrangement between her and me.

Or maybe she wants to send me a signal - she still remembers me.

In fact, like me, she is a relatively aloof person at heart. After something like that happened, we no longer took the initiative to contact each other. Now, maybe she is trying to break this ice.

I said, "Well, you go out of the hospital gate and cross the road, and then you can see a restaurant. This is the restaurant. I happen to be here. Come on, let's eat together."

Immediately, I said to the old lady: "Auntie, I really want to eat here. A guest has come. I will go do other things after eating."

Although my words were full of loopholes, the old lady didn't seem to care. She suddenly became happy and said, "Okay. I'll go and prepare delicious dishes for you right away. Come on, let's go down."

I still added, "Unfortunately, Tong Yao is not free today. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I don't know how long she will be busy. Auntie, let's have a meal together during the Spring Festival."

She asked me: "Don't you go home to see your parents?"

I shook my head, "I just arrived at the new unit and I can't leave. They said they would come up."

She was even more happy, "How about this, we will eat here during the Spring Festival. You don't know, we have already received a lot of orders during the Spring Festival. People nowadays are really different from before. They are all afraid of trouble.

We even ate at the hotel during the Chinese New Year.”

I smiled and said, "Yes. But I think the main reason is that the food here is home-cooked. Auntie, the chefs and waiters on duty during the Spring Festival must be given double their wages."

She smiled and said: "Of course. I have told them everything. I think we will not make money during the Spring Festival. It will not be easy for them to give them more money."

I laughed and said, "Auntie, I didn't expect you to be so generous. Okay, you have the final say."

After walking down to the lobby of the restaurant, I walked directly outside and immediately saw Zhuang Yu walking in my direction. He had already crossed the road and was looking at me and smiling. He was holding a woven bag in his hand.

I don't know what's inside.

Soon he came to me and said, "Dr. Feng, I finally found you."

I smiled at him and thought to myself: Why don't you call me brother-in-law now? But I said: "Let's go in. You are lucky, I happened to be here today to do something."

Then we entered the restaurant together, and I asked him: "What are you carrying? It looks so heavy?"

He smiled and said, "I just went home and brought you some bacon, sausages, and some potatoes grown by my parents."

I couldn't help but smile bitterly: He really wasn't afraid of the trouble in bringing such a heavy thing from such a far away place. But I was still a little touched in my heart, after all, this was the family's sincerity. Rural people are actually very simple, and they give it away.

When I was picking up things, I didn’t think about their value, but what people in the city liked to eat the most. The bacon, sausages and potatoes he brought were actually green foods, and it was difficult to buy such things in the city.

But I’m alone now and basically don’t cook at home. So I called a waiter over and said, “Put these things away and I’ll eat them during the Spring Festival.”

Zhuang Yu looked at me in surprise, "Doctor Feng, is this restaurant owned by your relative?"

The waiter immediately laughed and said, "He opened this restaurant himself."

Zhuang Yu immediately exclaimed, "Rich people are different."

I couldn't help but smile bitterly.

I found a seat by the window and sat down with him, and then asked the waiter to bring a hot towel to wash Zhuang Yu's face. I saw that his face was sweating. I guess he had been in the city for a long time and his physical strength

It's not as good as before, that's why it's like this. But that bag of things does seem to be too heavy.

He washed his face, and the white towel suddenly turned a little dark. He was a little embarrassed himself, so I smiled at him, meaning to let him not be too restrained. Then I asked him: "How are you doing lately?"

Right? Are you still working there? I have been too busy during this time with many things, so I didn’t care about your affairs. I’m sorry.”

He smiled naively, "I'm no longer in the dining group. I'm working on the construction site now."

I was startled for a moment, and then asked him: "So, if you compare working on the construction site with your work in the canteen, where can you make more money?"

He said: "It's almost the same. It's easier in the cafeteria, and sometimes you can earn a little more."

I understood immediately, because I remembered someone told me before that he would get some kickbacks from the money he spent buying food, so of course his income would be more. I couldn’t help but find it funny: This person looks honest and honest, but he is actually very honest.

Shrewd. Farmer-like shrewdness.

I asked him again: "When did your job change happen?"

He replied: "Just last month."

I asked him in surprise: "Then why didn't you come to see me last month?"

He smiled sheepishly, "How did I know that I would be so tired on the construction site and my income would be less than what I used to do? I just wanted to work for a while before talking."

I think so, "What about my sister-in-law? Where does she work now?"

He said: "She is still in the cafeteria. But she only cooks, and her salary is very small."

I laughed immediately, but I felt a little disappointed: it seemed that Zhuang Qing didn't ask him to come. I said, "You still want to go back to the canteen to do some shopping, right?"

He nodded, and then came to ask me: "Do you need anyone here? Can I come here to work?"

I couldn't help being stunned and thinking: This guy wants to come here to get kickbacks? I shook my head and said: "It doesn't work here, because I don't manage this place. Although the place is mine, it's just a name. Do you understand what I mean?

?”

He looked very disappointed. I smiled at him and said, "Wait a minute. I'll tell you about this right away. It should be no problem for you to go back to your previous position."

He smiled sheepishly at me.

I thought to myself: Tong Yangxi’s successor must have done this because he didn’t know about his relationship with me. Of course, according to Zhuang Yu’s shrewdness, he would definitely tell the other party, but they didn’t want to believe it or

I don't buy it at all. But I still hope that the reason is the former. This matter itself is not a big deal, and I am too lazy to think about it in detail.

I believe Shangguanqin will help me handle this little matter.

So I immediately sent her a text message, in which I briefly explained the situation. She quickly replied: After the Spring Festival, I will tell them. No problem.

I handed Shangguanqin's text message to Zhuang Yu and said, "It's okay. You can go back to your original position after the Chinese New Year."

He immediately became happy.

I asked him: "How is your sister doing recently? Do you know her condition?"

He shook his head, "I rarely contact her. But recently I called her and told her about my incident. She asked me to come to you."

I suddenly became happy: it seemed that Zhuang Qing had not completely forgotten me.

I ordered a bottle of white wine during dinner in the evening, but I drank very little, and Zhuang Yu drank the rest. He is really a good drinker. Zhuang Qing actually has a good drinker, and it seems that they have inherited it from his brother and sister.

Their predecessors contained a large amount of alcohol dehydrogenase.

After eating, I drove Zhuang Yu to an ordinary hotel and booked a room for him. Then I gave him all the cash I had on me, which amounted to about five thousand yuan. I apologized

He said to him: "I only have so much on me. Please buy something for your parents so that I can give them a New Year's greeting."

Perhaps because he was drunk, he asked me at this time: "Dr. Feng, I heard that your woman died?"

I nodded.

He asked me again: "Then is it possible for you and my sister to get married?"

I was stunned immediately, then slowly shook my head and said: "She is a big star now, how can I reach such a high level?"

He looked at me with a flattering look, "How about I ask her for you?"

I was shocked and said hurriedly: "No, please don't! You don't know, last time... Forget it, let's not talk about it. Brother, you'd better leave these things alone. It's not easy for your sister to get to where she is today.

You must not cause any trouble for her. Do you understand?"

"Oh." He said. But I looked at him as if he didn't fully understand what I meant.

After returning home, I was a little uneasy. On the one hand, I was thinking about Zhuang Yu coming to see me today, and also thinking about his sister Zhuang Qing. I don't know what her situation is now. And there is Tong Yao. I

I'm really worried about her now.

I went to the study room, turned on the computer, and started searching for Zhuang Qing. When I opened the search link, I was surprised. It turned out that she was so popular now. There was countless information about her on the web, including which movies and TV series she had appeared in,

Which TV programs she has participated in, which world-brand products she has endorsed, etc. The first dozens of pages on the search page were filled with news about her, which made me dazzled.

At this moment, I suddenly had an impulse: Why not give her a call? It doesn’t matter even if she ignores me. That way, at least I can know that everything in the past has completely and truly passed.

Has she not forgotten me? You know, we had real feelings before?

Although I was thinking this way, I didn't dare to pick up the phone because I was afraid of her ruthless voice coming from the phone.

I wandered around the house like a headless fly. Later, I finally decided: I must make this call! Otherwise, I will definitely have insomnia today and even for a long time to come.

I dialed the phone, and at this moment, my heart was in my throat.

Her familiar voice came from inside, but it didn't seem as pleasant as before, as if she was a little more tired, "Who is it?"

My heart suddenly sank: She couldn't even remember my phone number. At this moment, I really wanted to hang up the phone right away, so I said: "..."

Immediately, I hung up the phone because I felt that I was really humiliating myself by calling her.

At this time, my heart was depressed and I felt extremely uncomfortable. I never imagined that the once-deep emotions between us would eventually become thinner than paper and clearer than water.

Standing blankly in the middle of the study, I put my cell phone on the desk. I looked at it several times, and I tried to hear in my heart that it could produce the ringtone I wanted... but it didn't.

I suddenly felt bored, and the discomfort in my heart suddenly dissipated - this world is like this, and people in this world are like this. We are all forgetful. Originally, silly people like me always care about old relationships.

Not many, because everyone is too realistic.

I felt relieved immediately. The only thing that was still painful was that I was laughing at myself for being ridiculous in my heart.

Then I went to take a shower. I adjusted the temperature of the hot water to a bit high because I needed stimulation. I needed the stimulation of the water temperature to make myself more awake.

When I came out of the bathroom, I still felt hot all over my body, but this feeling was very comfortable. And fatigue came with it. When I entered the bedroom, I pulled off the quilt and got in. My thoughts were no longer chaotic, and I fell asleep peacefully.

.

However, my sweet sleep was awakened by the ringtone of my mobile phone not far away. I didn't want to answer it, but it was there desperately, hissing over and over again. I suddenly became worried: Is it a hospital?

What happened inside?

Huoran got up and quickly grabbed the phone, "Hey! Who is it?"

"I'm sorry, Feng Xiao. I didn't notice the call from you earlier. I was busy at that time and didn't look at the caller ID. Are you angry?" Zhuang Qing's voice came from the phone.

At this moment, I had mixed feelings and almost cried with joy. (To be continued)
