Chapter 570: A Conversation Between Two Secretaries
After weighing for a long time, Secretary Lu finally made a decision that he had never dared to think of before: when Secretary Li Runji came, he would tell him openly and honestly: Ye Ming was his biological son, and the man named Chen The child in the belly of a girl is currently the only grandson of an old man who is nearly sixty years old. He is also the only third-generation direct bloodline of the Lu family starting from himself. Therefore, no matter what difficulties and problems there are currently, this child will definitely He must be born and must be brought up...
After making this determination, Secretary Lu gradually calmed down and sat quietly on the swivel chair, waiting for Li Runji's arrival.
About twenty minutes later, Li Runji knocked on the door outside and called "Secretary Lu".
Xu Lizhong, who had been staying in the office next door, heard the movement in the secretary's office. He immediately came out of his office and invited Secretary Li in. Then he gently made tea for him and filled Secretary Lu's cup with water. Then he turned around and left knowingly.
In order to show respect for Secretary Li, after he came in, Secretary Lu quickly stood up from behind the desk, took his hand, and the two of them sat on the couch to the west, sitting on an equal footing with Secretary Li. say.
"Comrade Runji, I came to see you today for a private matter. This matter is related to Ye Ming and an extremely private experience when I was young. Therefore, I hope to have a frank talk with you. I hope I can get your understanding and support,"
Secretary Lu got straight to the point and first pointed out the purpose of tonight's conversation.
Although Secretary Li guessed that the content of Secretary Lu's conversation tonight was probably related to Ye Ming, when Secretary Lu said, "It is also related to a very private experience when I was young," he still took a bite. Surprise: Secretary Lu’s private experience, this private experience is also related to Ye Ming, this is too incredible.
Secretary Lu saw his eyes suddenly widen with an incredulous expression. He stood up and picked up a soft-cover diary that had been placed on his desk for a long time. He took out the farewell letter that Zhao Han had left for him from the title page. He handed the letter and the photo of Zhao Han when he was young to Secretary Li, and said in a very solemn tone: "Comrade Runji, if you look at this letter and this photo first, you can probably understand what I want to do with you. What did you say happened?"
Secretary Li took the letter and the photo with suspicion. He first held up the photo and looked at it carefully. His face showed a look of surprise again: the facial features, expression and smile of the young woman in the photo were almost the same as those of Ye Ming. It looks like, almost like being carved from the same mold. However, due to gender differences, this girl's facial features are slightly more refined and softer than Ye Ming's, and the expression on her face is also kinder than Ye Ming's. More gentle...
Secretary Lu had been observing the expression on Secretary Li's face, and when he saw that he was as surprised as he expected, he deliberately reminded him before he read the letter: "Comrade Runji, you should be able to tell: This is an old photo from more than 20 years ago. The woman in the photo, whose surname is Zhao and given name is Han, was one of my classmates when I was studying in the Chinese Department of Capital University, and she is Ye Ming’s mother. ,"
As soon as he said this, Secretary Li was so shocked that his hands shook, and the photo in his hand almost fell to the ground. At this time, he had vaguely guessed what was going on: Secretary Lu invited him here tonight, It turned out that he wanted to tell himself a huge secret that he had hidden for many years. No wonder he said those incomprehensible words to himself so solemnly as soon as he came in.
Thinking of this, he quickly calmed down, picked up the piece of paper again, and read the content on it word for word.
When he read the last sentence, "Dear Yuan, farewell forever, I will always love your Han," Secretary Li, who rarely had any emotional excitement in the relationship between men and women, couldn't help but feel a little moved. He raised his head and glanced at Lu. Secretary, I already understand what's going on.
However, he still had a question in his mind, so he asked softly: "Secretary Lu, I would like to take the liberty to ask you a question: Is Ye Ming the child of you and this Ms. Zhao Han, or is she with someone else after she broke up with you?" "born of marriage,"
Secretary Lu showed a sad look on his face, shook his head and said: "Runji, after Zhao Han separated from me, he never married again. Instead, he hid in a remote mountain village in Xinlang County and gave birth to me and her. However, just a few years ago, she died of liver cancer at the age of forty-four. Therefore, there is no doubt that Ye Ming is my biological son."
Although Secretary Li already knew that Ye Ming was an orphan now and that his mother had passed away a few years ago, when he heard Secretary Lu say in a sad tone that Zhao Han had died of liver cancer a few years ago, he still subconsciously He said "Ah", his tone full of sympathy and regret.
Secretary Lu was already immersed in infinite sorrow for Zhao Han at this time, and did not care to look at Secretary Li's expression, and continued: "In the past twenty years, Zhao Han has tried to help me and not cause me any trouble. , even though she knew that I was in the capital, and that I had been constantly promoted, she never thought of looking for me, and she never thought of asking me to take part of the responsibility. She is such a kind person, A strong person sacrificed her life's happiness for me, but she never had any intention of asking me to repay her. She also repeatedly told our son not to hate me and never try to find me. , so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to me...Runji, every time I think of her kindness and selflessness, every time I think of her sacrifice and dedication, I feel extremely regretful and ashamed,"
At this point, Secretary Lu finally couldn't control it anymore, tears rolled down from his eyes, and his voice began to become hoarse and choked...
Although Secretary Li is as hard-hearted as iron and is rarely moved by this kind of love between children, after hearing this tragic story told by Secretary Lu, he also felt sad, and unconsciously there was a tear in the corner of his eye. Tears came out.
After a long time, he comforted and said in a deep tone: "Secretary Lu, I would like to express my condolences. From what you said, it seems that Ms. Zhao Han is not only loyal and unrepentant in her feelings, but also has great vision and opinions, and is also very strong in heart. She is very decisive in her actions. She is a rare woman in modern society. She was able to raise Ye Ming on her own and gave him the qualities and abilities he has now. She is indeed worthy of admiration and admiration. You don’t have to blame yourself too much. After all, judging from this letter, this is her own decision and the path she has chosen. You are also more than capable. I believe that she will never treat you badly. Without the slightest hint of resentment,”
