Chapter 49

Perhaps because I slept for a day and a night, Xiangbei couldn't sleep that night. His heart was so blocked that he still felt a little painful, and the back of his head felt tingling with needles.

What's wrong with this? Could it be that if you are stimulated by this trouble, you will have any sequelae? Xiangbei gently rubbed his head, and it seemed that he was really old.

"Honey, your head hurts?"

"Well, my mind seems like something is about to come out." Xiangbei endured the pain, his face turned red, "Wife, what's going on in my head, right? Oh, this is a big advantage."

Zhou Xuecen felt uncomfortable when he heard Xiangbei's self-deprecating self-deprecation. Did he already know the condition? However, she remembered the attending physician's words. The most important thing now is to not let Xiangbei be stimulated: "Don't guess it, you want to take advantage of any advantage! The doctor said it's nothing, you just have too much mental pressure, just take a rest."

"Oh, the moment I fainted in Chongming's office, I was still thinking, shouldn't I just leave like that, right? I'm not afraid of leaving, what should you and my mother do?"

"I'm in my thirties, I'm talking nonsense all day long, and I don't have a door-to-door!"

"To be honest, if I die, you will bury me to the sea. Facing the sea, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, how comfortable it is. Then find another one, I won't be jealous. I'll be nice to you, just treat you well."

"Okay, then I'll find one now. But if I die first and buried it on the beach, you will accompany me every day, and we can see the sea every day. That's OK!"

"Good idea! By the way, what time is it now?"

"It's half past ten, are you tired? Take a rest?" Zhou Xuecen looked at his phone. He didn't expect that time passed so quickly. It was time for the hospital to rest. When he saw the clinical patients, he had already turned around and fell asleep.

Xiangbei shook his head: "I'm not sleepy at all. Wife, go home. I'm not relieved."

Zhou Xuecen: "Don't worry, I've made arrangements. If Nuoyi has something to do, Zhang Ke will call me. I'll be in the hospital tonight. However, Nuoyi agreed that when you are discharged from the hospital, I will give you a big gift!"

Xiangbei: "What big gift?"

Zhou Xuechen: "A big excavator."

Xiangbei: "Excavator? I think he wants toys. Well, it seems that I have to prepare it for him as soon as I was discharged from the hospital. This naughty kid, our family is almost a toy story, police cars, ambulances, excavators, buses, trains..."

When talking about Nuoyi, Xiangbei looked sad, but his heart was full of happiness. With children, life has color and thoughts.

When the lights are turned off, Xiangbei is lying on the bed, unable to sleep, and his mind is full of things that cannot be cut and messy. I don’t think about it anymore! There is no hurdle that cannot be overcome!

However, Zhou Xuecen finally had a solid sleep. The ward where Xiangbei lived had two beds, each with a quota of accompanying the bed.

Zhou Xuecen was lying on the folding chair in the ward, facing her body, and slightly opening her mouth - the top of her head was almost over the head rack, holding the handle with both hands and placing her feet on the foot rack. Since the folding chair was not fully unfolded, Zhou Xuecen curled up, and her lying posture looked a little indecent, and she even snored faintly.

Looking north through the faint light, he looked at Zhou Xuecen, then reached out and gently covered her coat on her and scrutinized her head. As he looked, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if he had returned to his college days. Alas, it would be great if time could go back, and he could choose again.

Now, the two of them have to overcome this barrier together. Wife, Nuoyi... How should we go about the future? All we can see in front of us is a confusion.

The next morning, the snow had already turned the city of Hedong whitening, and all the dust was wiped out, the sky was blue and the earth was clear.

The wind outside is fierce and the ward is full of warmth.

Just after eight o'clock, colleagues from the newspaper went to the hospital to "dian Mao", and Yu Chongming was also here with him.

"Oh, the snow is so heavy, the road is very busy. It seems that this year is another cold winter." Yu Chongming now slapped the snow water on his clothes at the door of the ward, and took care of his head, which was wet by the rain and snow.

"Mr. Yu, why are you here?" Xiangbei tried to get up.

"Yangbei, how are you doing?" Yu Chongming stepped into the ward door and rushed to the bed. "I heard yesterday that you were awake. There was no way. The newspaper office had too many things to do without me. This morning, I had to come and see you whatever I said."

Yu Chongming put the fruit basket he was holding by the bed. Seeing this, Zhou Xuecen hurriedly stepped forward and took the fruit basket.

"I worry about my leader, and I'll have to make a special trip." Zhou Xuecen said.

Yu Chongming looked at Zhou Xuecen carefully, then looked at Xiangbei, with a surprised expression on his face: "Oh, this is my brother and sister. Xiangbei often mentions you, you are such a virtuous supporter. We have been in a divine relationship for a long time, and we have only heard the sound but did not see the other person, haha."

"This is Mr. Yu, executive deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper," Xiangbei hurriedly introduced, "This is my wife Zhou Xuecen."

Zhou Xuecen nodded politely to Yu Chongming: "Hello Mr. Yu. I often hear Xiangbei mention you and say that you are very caring to him. Thank you very much."

"I have to thank you. Xiangbei is so outstanding, and it is inseparable from your support. Half of this military merit mark is yours!" Yu Chongming said.

"Mr. Yu praised him. Xiangbei will be able to interview and write articles. He does not understand the worldly ways. Sometimes he can't help but speak unpleasantly and offend people. I hope you will be more grateful and take care of him."

After hearing Zhou Xuecen say this, Yu Chongming's smile condensed awkwardly, but he was an "old man" after all. After only two seconds, his expression instantly warmed up, and he squeezed out a strange laugh: "Uh... my brother and sister were joking, haha... Xiangbei is our backbone reporter, old comrade! Everyone envies him, and I also envy him. My work in the newspaper depends on him..."

Yu Chongming didn't know what he was saying. When people were nervous or embarrassed, they often organized their language in chaos and had no logic.

"Who is laughing here? I wonder if the ward needs to be quiet?" A white coat walked straight into the ward. The visitor was the attending physician with a white head and gold-rimmed glasses.

"Doctor, this is the leader of our Beijiang Evening News Agency, come and see Xiangbei." The reporter who came with Yu Chongming was already familiar with the attending physician and hurriedly stepped forward to recommend his leader.

"Hello doctor, thank you for your hard work." Yu Chongming showed his iconic smile, polite and majestic.

In Hedong City and even Beijiang Province, who wouldn’t give me some slight slightness when I heard about Beijiang Evening News? What’s more, Yu Chongming is the executive deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper, the standard uncrowned king, and the authentic iron hat king!

"It's the leader, so you should abide by the hospital's rules and regulations. Didn't you see that the patients next to you are still resting." The attending physician was not used to the problem at all.

"Hehe, yes." Yu Chongming looked at the patient in the bed next to him and smiled embarrassedly.

The attending physician checked the medicine one by one, measured the blood pressure and body temperature of Xiangbei, and explained a few words to the interns around him, with quick movements and no trace of coming and going.

Yu Chongming smiled and turned around: "Xiangbei, what are the conditions of the hospital? If not, I'll say hello to the director and transfer a single room for you. Otherwise, we'll change to a better hospital."

"Thank you, Mr. Yu, it's very good here. The doctors are all very dedicated."

"That's good. Go north, let's talk alone?"

Looking north, he looked at Zhou Xuecen.

"I'll go to the cafeteria downstairs to buy you some breakfast. Mr. Yu, have you had dinner? I'll buy you some food?" Zhou Xuechen was very tactful and knew that the two of them were going to talk about serious things.

"You are polite brother and sister, I've eaten it." Yu Chongming politely refused. Having breakfast in the hospital? No, it's unlucky.

Zhou Xuecen left the ward and thought about Yu Chongming along the way. What this person said after entering the ward made people feel warm. Unexpectedly, Mr. Yu knew how to be considerate of his subordinates. Perhaps, things were not as bad as Xiangbei imagined. However, after careful observation from his hypocritical smile, he felt that this person was not good, at least he came with purpose. Otherwise, when Xiangbei was in a coma yesterday, as the executive deputy editor-in-chief, he should have come to visit his subordinates.

The patient on the bed next to him was also very tactful, turning his face over and facing away from the two.

Only Yu Chongming and Xiangbei were left in the room. Yu Chongming pulled the curtain between the hospital beds.

"Xiangbei, it may be a bit cruel to talk to you about the report letter now," Yu Chongming held his glasses, touched the disobedient head on his forehead, and his expression returned to seriousness. "I am helpless. How to deal with this matter has reached an imminent point. The newspaper cannot passively wait for waves of negative public opinion bombardment."

Yu Chongming sat next to the bed, facing north, lowered his voice and said, "The last time we talked to you, I wanted to deal with this matter as low as possible and keep the matter in a small way. But unexpectedly, someone actually posted the report letter online. Now it's troublesome, and the people of the whole country know! The leadership of the newspaper is like an ant on a hot pan, especially Lao Zhao. You know this person, you are anxious! This matter must be properly resolved!"

"Mr. Yu, I understand what you mean." Xiangbei was a little excited and his words were choked. "I have been thinking about this since I woke up. I still had the previous position. The content of the report letter was a false accusation. Now it seems that it is not only a false accusation, but also a frame-up with ulterior motives!"

"Even if you are right, so what? Let the public security organs file a case? Let the newspaper article denied the rumors? Or should the discipline inspection department check it? You have to know that if you really want to continue investigating, you can guarantee that there will be no problems?!" Yu Chongming was also a little excited, stood up from his seat and paced in the aisle between the two beds.

As he said to Chen Jizhou before, there will be no fish when the water is clear. If you really check it, you will find the problem. At that time, maybe someone will be in trouble.

"But, you can't put the blame on me. The letter of report is not directed at me alone." Xiangbei defended.

"Yes, there are many people involved. But it is mainly aimed at you. You are the initiator. Others report you one after another, and the newspapers will urgently put out the fire every time."

"Mr. Yu, what are the newspaper's opinions on how to solve this matter?"

Xiangbei was unwilling to be framed and debated with Yu Chongming. In order not to intensify the differences between the two, he changed the topic, and this topic was exactly what Yu Chongming wanted to hear. Of course, Xiangbei wanted to know even more.

Yu Chongming took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, sat back to the bed, and said with a smile: "Xiangbei, you may have to be wronged this time..."

"Grievance? What do you mean?!"

"In order to deal with the large number of comments online, the newspaper has issued an emergency plan. The newspaper decided to publish an article in the Beijiang Evening News to comprehensively investigate the report. In addition, for the issues involving you, the violation of discipline will be investigated by the newspaper, and the violation will be transferred to the public security organs for investigation."

"What?! Mr. Yu, is this your grievance? This is sacrifice!" Xiangbei could no longer control his emotions at this time and shouted loudly. "Oh, no, sacrifice is a compliment. Use me as a scapegoat?"

"Xiangbei! You are still a newspaper employee now, how can you speak so vulgarly?! I remember telling you that I hope you have a grateful heart. Think about it, what would you do when you first worked? Didn't the newspaper raise you? Just like parents worked hard to raise their children. Now you should share your worries for your parents, um... for the newspaper. This is the minimum politeness." Yu Chongming still lowered his voice, afraid that this matter would cause a lot of controversy and lose his identity.

"No, no, absolutely not." Xiangbei covered his head, and his brain hurt like a torn tear.

"Xiangbei, you are an old comrade and you should be aware of it! I hope you can think calmly that only by doing this can you calm the public opinion storm and minimize the negative impact of this incident on the newspaper. In addition, the newspaper will also use resources to the maximum extent and find ways to minimize the punishment for you."

"What if I don't accept it? What's the worst result for me?" The headache made people become manic, and Xiang Bei was too lazy to argue with him, and asked directly.

"Don't accept it? You are so smart, you should be able to think that the newspaper must have a clear relationship with this matter. The only way to clear the relationship is to quit you. You have to understand that after you leave, it is hard to say what the public security organs do, and it has nothing to do with the newspaper."

Seeing Yu Chongming's eyes, Xiangbei never felt so strange. Although through the thick lenses, Xiangbei could see the complex emotions revealed in his eyes, fierce... cold... tear off his face...

This old guy usually smiles when he sees anyone. Even when he meets a cleaning lady who cleans up the urine pool in the bathroom, his little eyes can narrow into a slit. Could it be that he is a smiling tiger?

It is said that literati are inferior to each other. Once literati become cruel, they will be more hysterical than those politicians and businessmen!

Yu Chongming's words made Xiangbei feel completely heartbroken. In the workplace, you should never expect to win the sympathy and care of your leaders with your misfortune and weakness.

These misfortunes seem to you as a great thing, but to him, they are just a speck of dust. Since they are not relatives or relatives, nothing is more important than their own interests.
