The kitchen is cold and the house is empty. Su Fangwan has long since moved away from her father's house. She is currently the deputy secretary of the Youth League County Committee. The Youth League County Committee assigned her a turnover house for temporary residence. Once she is transferred, the house will be taken back normally.

Li Yuanlang looked at the time and saw that it was almost five o'clock in the evening, so he thought about going out to find someone to drink with.

His former drinking buddy was Ji Tianhou, but he has been busy since he went to Bronze Town. Besides, tonight is the last night of the year. Ji Tianhou has a wife, children and a family, so he should have a happy reunion with his family.

Not easy to disturb.

Zhou Yu has returned to the provincial capital. Due to the cold weather, demolition work has been suspended for a long time. Correspondingly, Qiu Jiyuan also went back to reunite with his family.

Who should he call? He couldn't find anyone to drink and chat with for a while, and Li Yuanlang was really depressed. At this moment, his cell phone rang, and a call came in. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was Su Fangwan.

"Uncle, where are you? Are you still in Shuiming Township?" Su Fangwan's voice sounded hoarse and slightly choked.

"Fangwan, I'm at home, how are you?" Ever since Li Yuanlang rescued Su Fangwan from the bathroom and sent her to the hospital, it's been almost a month since Li Yuanlang got in touch with the little girl.

How should I put it? Embarrassing is the word that puts Li Yuanlang in a dilemma. After all, the most private side of a girl has inevitably been seen by Li Yuanlang. Although he doesn't want to see it, purity of thought is not equal to reality with the naked eye.

Even if he saw it, he couldn't lie to himself.

"Uncle, I..." Su Fangwan couldn't help crying, and after a while she said, "Can you come to my place? Today is my father's first birthday, and I'm a little scared..."

"Uncle, he..." Li Yuanlang was very surprised and hesitated to speak, fearing that it would hurt Su Fangwan's saddest nerves.

"Yes, my father didn't make it through after all. He passed away a week ago. My brother's life and death are uncertain outside, so I'm a little...scared to be alone in the house."

"Tell me your address and I'll be there right away."

Li Yuanlang left home without stopping and took a taxi to a community in the center of the county. This was a bank community with only four staircases.

Li Yuanlang found Unit 2 of Building 3 based on the address provided by Su Fangwan. Su Fangwan lived in Room 301 on the third floor.

At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and I could barely see my fingers. I could only distinguish my feet from the bright light in the residents' homes.

Li Yuanlang walked to the door of the second unit, rang the doorbell, and was about to get in, when suddenly a black figure jumped out of nowhere and got into the corridor first.

Who is this person? He is so unruly!

Li Yuanlang was so angry that he was about to argue with this man, but the black shadow ignored him and trotted upstairs quickly. Because of his rapid footsteps, the voice-activated sensor lights in the corridor were turned on, and Li Yuanlang could only see a thin figure.

Gao's back, holding a bouquet of flowers in his arms.

He shook his head helplessly, having no reason to argue with people of low quality, so he put his hands in his pockets and walked upstairs.

As soon as we arrived on the third floor, we heard Su Fangwan's angry voice from far away: "Luo Yang, I have told you n times, we are not suitable, please stop pestering me, okay?"

Then came a man's weak voice: "Fang Wan, I really love you. For you, I didn't even give up the chance to stay in the provincial capital and applied for the civil service exam just to be with you..."

"Stop talking, we can't."

Li Yuanlang took a few steps and saw that it was the dark figure holding a large bouquet of flowers in his arms. At the moment Su Fangwan tried hard to close the door, he grabbed the edge of the security door and pushed it out hard, while Su Fangwan tried her best to close it.

The two of them pulled each other, and Su Fangwan's frail body was no match for the man. Seeing that the man was about to rush into the room, at the critical moment, Li Yuanlang yelled: "Let her go!" and then stepped forward with a lunge.

, pushed the man away and blocked his body in front of Su Fangwan.

The man was about 25 or 26 years old, tall and thin, wearing a pair of rimless diamond-cut business glasses. He was frail and fair-looking.

He was pushed by Li Yuanlang, staggered, and stabilized his expression slightly. He stared at Li Yuanlang in surprise and asked: "Who are you?"

Yes, who am I?

Li Yuanlang was really hard to answer for a while. While he was talking, Su Fangwan generously came up to hold Li Yuanlang's arm, raised her toes slightly and kissed him on the face, and said brightly: "He is my boyfriend.

Luo Yang, you should be worried now."

"Your boyfriend?" Luo Yang couldn't help but look at Li Yuanlang carefully from top to bottom, and muttered inwardly: "I never heard you say you have a boyfriend, is it true?"

"Humph, do I need to tell you when I'm looking for a boyfriend? You're not mine." After Su Fang finished speaking, she held Li Yuanlang's arm tightly and said affectionately: "My dear, I did what you love most."

Let’s go eat some food!”

From the beginning to the end, Li Yuanlang didn't say a word. Even if he was kissed by Su Fangwan, he could only feel it silently in his heart. It was meaningless for him to say anything at this time, and Su Fangwan's expression kept reminding him to act.

I had no choice but to follow the rules and play along.

Who knew that as soon as she walked into the house, Su Fangwan's face was still normal. When she saw the enlarged black and white photo in the living room, she burst into tears and cried with her fingers in her mouth.

Next to the living room hangs a black and white photo of Su's father, with incense candles burning underneath. Sure enough, the old man has passed away.

Li Yuanlang couldn't help feeling sad. He walked over and placed three sticks of incense on the old man's memorial tablet, and bowed three times very seriously.

"Fangwan, why didn't you tell me that Uncle Su died of illness, so that I could do my best if you need help."

"Uncle, you have done enough for me. Besides, you are a township official and are busy at work. I didn't tell you for fear of disturbing you. My father's funeral was all done with the help of the Youth League and County Party Committee Office. I didn't bother.

What the hell." Su Fangwan wiped the tears from her eyes and roughly told the story of her father's death.

After talking about her father, Su Fangwan then talked about her suitor Luo Yang. Luo Yang was Su Fangwan's college classmate and he liked Su Fangwan when he was in school. Unfortunately, Su Fangwan had a boyfriend, so he had to turn his love into a secret love.

Luo Yang's family was in Yunyang, the provincial capital. Later, when he heard that Su Fangwan had returned to Ganping County and worked as a county political commissar, he resolutely quit his job with a good salary and applied for the civil service examination.

It's a pity that he finally got admitted to Xiwu County and currently works in the confidential office of the county party committee. Luo Yang had always kept in touch with Su Fangwan on his mobile phone, occasionally sending WeChat messages or making phone calls to greet him, that's all.

But not long ago, the Xiwu County Party Committee built family buildings, and all public officials who got married and started a family were eligible to participate in the allocation of houses.

Luo Yang was tempted. He already liked Su Fangwan. He also found out that Su Fangwan had broken up with her boyfriend and was alone, so he wanted to find an opportunity to confess to Su Fangwan.

Su Fangwan rejected him immediately, mainly because she didn't like Luo Yang, and she already had someone in her heart. How could she think about this when her father had just passed away?

Also, Luo Yang was in Xiwu and she was in Ganping. Luo Yang was still an ordinary civil servant, but she was already the deputy secretary of the Youth League and County Committee at the deputy section level. The Youth League and County Committee had always been the cradle of reserve cadres, and there might be a way to be promoted in the future.

Su Fangwan remained unmoved by Luo Yang's bombardment due to the reality of separation, the gap in status and status between the two places, as well as various incompatibility. Her refusal was strong and she never wavered in the slightest.

Tonight, Luo Yang came to harass Su Fangwan again. He waited downstairs for several hours holding flowers. He was frozen into popsicles. He was not discouraged when Su Fangwan stayed behind closed doors. He thought that no matter how cold his heart was, it would melt when he saw him so persistent.

It happened that Li Yuanlang came, and Luo Yang took the opportunity to sneak into her house and rang the doorbell. Su Fangwan thought it was Li Yuanlang, so she opened the door quickly, but unexpectedly what happened just now happened.

While chatting with Li Yuanlang, Su Fangwan felt much happier, her mood was not as sad as before, and a smile was already on her face.

After hearing so much, Li Yuanlang had nothing to advise. Seeing that it was late and his stomach was still growling with hunger, he thought of inviting Su Fangwan to eat out.

"I've been ready for a long time and I'm just waiting for you to come." Su Fangwan got up and went to the kitchen. Listening to the buzzing of the range hood and the tapping of the spoon, the aroma of vegetables wafted into Li Yuanlang's nose.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yuanlang took a cigarette and looked around Su Fangwan's warm little home.

This is a house with two bedrooms and one living room, which is very clean and tidy. It is about fifty square meters, not very big, but it is enough for one person to live in.

The decoration is simple, but all the furniture and appliances are well-arranged. Li Yuanlang walked around and felt that the conditions here are much better than the house he shared before. The little girl can finally have a safe home.

"Uncle, dinner is ready." Su Fangwan wore an apron and came out happily carrying a bowl of soup. Her face was flushed, like a ripe big apple.

"It smells so good." Li Yuanlang twisted his nose and smelled it. Seeing that the four dishes on the table were all his favorite dishes, he couldn't help rubbing his hands and sighed: "Fangwan, I thought you were just talking about it,

It turns out that you really prepared all my favorite dishes, thank you, you are thoughtful."

"Bang!" Su Fangwan curled her lips: "Stop saying those sour words, I get goosebumps all over my body. Sit down quickly and try to see if my craftsmanship has improved."

Just as Li Yuanlang was about to pick up the chopsticks, Su Fangwan quickly told him to stop. She quickly went to the bathroom to get a white towel, soaked it in warm water and it was still warm, and said to him angrily: "You have to wash your hands before eating, and you don't know how to be hygienic."

Li Yuanlang chuckled and said, "I can't control much. I'm so hungry that my heart is close to my back. I'll fill my stomach first."

Li Yuanlang wiped his hands with a towel, then swung his chopsticks up and down, and began to eat happily.

"Oh, I still have wine here, let's have some drinks." As she spoke, Su Fangwan took out a bottle of liquor from the kitchen, which was Ganping Daqu, a local product with 52% alcohol content.

There is no feast without wine, and such a delicious dish would not be complete without wine. Su Fangwan poured a glass of wine for Li Yuanlang, and the two drank together.

During the meal, Li Yuanlang asked about Su Fangwan's work situation, and Su Fangwan told him that everything was fine. Li Qingyin, secretary of the Youth League County Party Committee, had introduced a boyfriend to her.

"Who is it?" Li Yuanlang asked casually.

But when he heard the man's name, he was shocked and the ribs on his chopsticks fell on the table.
Chapter completed!
