“Keep your voice down!”
Li Yantong said in a panic, “My mother doesn’t know about this yet, I didn’t dare to tell her!”
Ji Feng nodded and lowered his voice, “Sister, when did this happen?”
Li Yantong said, “Once was about a month after we first came to Jinling, when he came to see me at school, and another time was a few months ago, when he went to the unit where I did my internship.”
Came twice?!
Ji Feng couldn’t help but be surprised, because he hadn’t heard about this at all, whether it was from his father or his mother, he hadn’t heard a single whisper. But soon, some warmth flowed through Ji Feng’s heart, because he knew another side of his father again from this point.
The father was not a cold and heartless person, he loved his son, but also missed his daughter, that’s why he quietly came to Jinling, and even went to his sister’s school and internship unit, I’m afraid, to see with his own eyes where his sister was studying and working.
This, too, was a way for him to express his father’s love.
And when he looked at the complex and imperceptible hint of happiness on his sister Li Yantong’s face, he couldn’t help but smile.
This news was the best news Ji Feng had heard in a while, and I don’t know how it happened, but Li Yantong telling him this news instantly cleared away the gloom that had been squeezed into his heart for a while, and his whole being was much lighter.
But after having dinner, Ji Feng’s good mood was gone, and the one who was also not in the mood was Li Yueqin.
Hearing Ji Feng explain his intention, the smile on Li Yueqin’s face immediately disappeared without a trace, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
Ji Feng could only say with a stiff upper lip, “Auntie, in fact, the truth is that you understand better than I do, as I said before, no matter what happened in the past, but there is one thing that cannot be changed, she is my sister, she has a father ……”
“Little Feng, this is the end of the matter.” Seeing her mother’s displeased look, Li Yantong hurriedly said, while giving him a wink, “Don’t say anything about this.”
“There are some things I still want to say!”
Ji Feng said sincerely, “Auntie, you all know what kind of character I have, I never tell lies to my relatives and I don’t want to beat around the bush, in a word, my sister can’t be fatherless forever, right? She will talk about boyfriends, she will get married, and she will have children, I think, when she is bullied outside, she also wants to have a father to help him out, she also wants her husband to have a father-in-law, and her children to have a grandfather ……”
“Little Feng, don’t say it.”
Li Yantong’s eyes were red, her nose was sore, and her voice was a little off.
Ji Feng but still said, “Auntie, I’m not being pretentious, it’s from my heart, I don’t know how to handle things between your elders, and it’s not my turn to worry about it, but my sister’s matter is something I have to manage and should manage, don’t you think so?”
Li Yueqin did not say a word, still expressionless.
However, Ji Feng found that the sunken colour in Li Yueqin’s eyes had slightly eased.
“I won’t say anything else, auntie, think about my words and thank you for the delicious meal you cooked today.” Ji Feng said, “Auntie, then I’ll go back first, I’ll see you again some time later.”
“Sister, I’m leaving.” Ji Feng said to Li Yantong again.
Li Yantong nodded, holding back the hard feelings in her heart, and said, “Little Feng, drive a little slower on the road, and be safe.”
Ji Feng walked away.
Li Yantong, however, was a little worried, afraid that her mother would be too angry, so she hurriedly said, “Mom, don’t be angry, Little Feng is still young, he still doesn’t know what to say nonsense ……”
“Sigh ……”
Li Yueqin let out a long sigh, her gaze fell on her daughter’s face, looking at her daughter’s slightly red eyes, her gaze softened as she asked, “Tong Tong, tell mum the truth, those words of Little Feng have spoken to your heart, right?”
Li Yantong didn’t answer, but when she heard her mother’s words, her eyes became more crystalline, tears welling up in her eyes, her nose sore.
Without saying anything, Li Yueqin saw the look on her daughter’s face and understood what was in her mind and thoughts.
Li Yueqin could not help but be silent.
“Mum, I won’t go.” Seeing this, Li Yantong thought her mother was angry and sad, and panicked to comfort her, “I’ll stay at home with you, I won’t go anywhere, I won’t see anyone ……”
“Silly child.”
Li Yueqin stroked her daughter’s head and said, “There is one thing Xiao Feng said right, you are his sister, this cannot be changed, you, too, need your father ……”
Li Yantong’s tears fell with a snap.
Li Yueqin sighed: “In fact, there are moments when I subconsciously think of Ji Feng as family, if we put aside other things, I even talked to him about you today, at that time, I was in a bit of a trance, almost really thought I was talking to my son, discussing my daughter’s feelings …… ”
Li Yantong can no longer hold back, a moment to lie on his mother’s lap, whimpering and crying.
……
On the way back, Ji Feng smoked a rare cigarette in the car. Although the car is equipped with an air purification system and ventilation circulation system, but Ji Feng generally still will not smoke in the car, not only just because of the second-hand smoke on the white beads, but also because he does not like to affect other people because of smoking, even if it is his lover.
But this time, Ji Feng couldn’t help but light up a cigarette as a way to calm his somewhat agitated mood.
The news that his father had already visited his sister, and more than once, made Ji Feng very happy, which is why he said those words to Li Yueqin with such emotion.
Because from the act of his father quietly coming to visit his sister, he experienced his father’s feelings, which were very complicated, seemingly with guilt, compa*sion, and also some …… not knowing what to do.
This feeling has nothing to do with status.
Even the fact that his father had come to visit his sister in Jinling, his mother might not even know about it until now and had been kept in the dark, but Ji Feng was not the least bit displeased, instead he was full of joy.
What made Ji Feng even happier was that after he had said those words, he saw a hint of relief in Li Yueqin’s gaze. Ji Feng seemed to be able to see himself and his sister sitting next to his father at the same time one day soon, talking about something or nothing …… whatever!
On the way, Ji Feng made a phone call to Tong Lei to ask her about her situation over there, and learned that she was accompanying Tong’s mother on her shopping trip, which made Ji Feng smile faintly.
When he returned to Jiangzhou, it was all a bit dark, and Ji Feng wanted to go home directly so that he could also discuss the work of the Tengfei Group with you Xiao Yuxuan, but at this time, he received a phone call from Xiang Yongzhan.
“Older brother, come over now if you have time, there’s something to tell you.” Xiang Yongzhan said.
“What is it?!” Ji Feng asked.
“You should come over first.” Xiang Yongzhan said.
Ji Feng then understood, it seemed that there were some things that were not very convenient to say over the phone, so he said, “Alright then, I can probably get there in an hour or so.”
Xiang Yongzhan laughed, “Then you’re here just in time for dinner, let’s have a drink together.”
Ji Feng laughed: “I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to!”
Xiang Yongzhan was not convinced: “You have a big mouth, okay then, I’ll prepare the food and wine, just waiting for you to come!”
Jokingly, Ji Feng hung up the phone, “Bai Zhu, go to the military compound.”
When he saw Xiang Yongzhan, this guy was holding the telephone handset in one hand and a pen in his right hand, bending over his desk not knowing what he was doing by writing and drawing on the paper, when Ji Feng went over to look, he found that it was an abbreviated map, but he didn’t know which place it was, and there were some words written on it.
“Bare`s surface, dark red.”
“Unnamed.”
“Soft texture, low hardness, density unknown for now ……”
Ji Feng didn’t see any clues, so he asked, “What does this say? Where is the map from and why can’t I see the name of the place on it?”
Xiang Yongzhan gave him a look, his mouth hmmm’d in response, after a moment, he said, “Keep searching, plus bring back some of the samples for testing immediately, be quick, but also pay attention to strict confidentiality! Well, that’s it!”
Pop!
Hanging up the phone, Xiang Yongzhan laughed, “You kid came fast enough. Where’s Bai Zhu?”
Ji Feng hummed, “She’s my person, why are you so concerned?!”
“……”
Xiang Yongzhan said helplessly, “Alright, forget I asked.”
Ji Feng asked, “What are you looking for me for?”
“Of course it’s a good thing!” Xiang Yongzhan said, “Remember those batches of drugs we brought back from the dynasty’s underground base? There were also modified humans and some other supplies, and now the results of the experimental analysis of the drugs have come out, and the results of the analysis of the bodies of the modified humans have also come out, so I purposely asked you to come over and take a look.”
“The results are out? Bring it to me for a look!” Ji Feng said immediately. He did want to know the results of the analysis, no matter if it was the drug or the results of the body analysis of those transformers.
Because through this one could get a side view of the dynasty’s progress in science and technology, and at the same time there might be unexpected gains.
“Alright then, come with me!”
Xiang Yongzhan put away all the maps and papers on the table, then locked the desk drawer and checked it carefully again before he went out with confidence, “The analysis results are in the safe in the data room, I looked at them, I know every word, but what they mean when combined together, I don’t quite understand.”
Ji Feng said, “It’s scary to be uneducated.”
Xiang Yongzhan hummed, “I can’t help it, I don’t like school by nature, that’s why I ended up in a miserable job, putting my head on the waistband of my trousers to fight the enemy all day long, which is not as comfortable as you kid!”
Ji Feng ignored him, the best way to deal with people who are still selling themselves short is to ignore them.
The two came to the information room, Xiang Yongzhan first let Ji Feng register, sign, and let the surveillance take pictures, then Ji Feng still had to wait in the reading area, Xiang Yongzhan went alone to bring out the information, and only then did Ji Feng see the analysis results.
But just after scanning it, he couldn’t help but be secretly surprised.
