South of Chutian

They failed to reach Hunan on the day of Tian Xiaoqin's death.

The report of the "Hanyang Morning Post" was like a fuse, and with a bang, many things were exploded that even they themselves hadn't thought of.It wasn't until Tang Guomu and Fu Liling were taken away for investigation at the same time, and the gossip about Tang Guomu's economic crimes spread to everyone, that Tang Heng suddenly realized that in a sense, Tian Xiaoqin's incident became a murder with a knife knife.

Sure enough, he soon met the people from the discipline inspection department of Han University and the leader of a certain economic department in Wuhan.

"Teacher Tang, don't worry, we will definitely investigate this matter to the end," the other party sat opposite Tang Heng, looking very amiable, "However, I hope you can provide as many clues as possible."

Tang Heng said calmly: "We have disclosed all the clues about his rape of Tian Xiaoqin."

"Then is there anything else?" The other party asked, "? For example, did he accept and offer bribes, did he transfer property..."

"I really don't know."

"Teacher Tang, think about it again? Now every clue you provide is very important."

Seeing that Tang Heng didn't speak, the leader of the economic department waved his hand to invite others out of the room, and then personally assured Tang Heng: "Our purpose is only to deal with Tang Guomu. You have made a contribution to this matter, and it is for your sake." We won't make things difficult for your mother."

Tang Heng was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I haven't been back for six years, and I didn't have much contact with him when I was in poor health."

……

Similar conversations were conducted four times, each lasting more than two hours.Tang Heng couldn't get in touch with Fu Liling, and later learned from Professor An that Tang Guomu had close contacts with a certain leader in recent years, and just last year, that leader "struggled" fiercely with another group of people, so this time Tang Guomu hit the muzzle of the gun.

The last conversation between Tang Heng and them happened at the beginning of May. On this day six years ago, Li Yuechi stabbed Tang Guomu with a knife.

"Go," Li Yuechi patted Tang Heng's arm, "I'll wait for you here."

"Well," Tang Heng took two steps forward, then turned to look at him again, "You are waiting for me right here."

Li Yuechi smiled and said, "Okay."

The content of the last conversation was not much different from the previous three, the only difference was that at the end of the conversation, the other party suddenly said, "Is it Li Yuechi who came with you?"

Tang Heng suddenly became alert: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," the other party waved his hand and smiled, "I just happened to see...he was Tang Guomu's student back then."

Tang Heng remained silent, frowning and staring at him.

"It's a pity that the good youth was wasted like this," the other party paused, and said softly, "Does he still want to study? If he still has regrets, maybe he can..."

"This is his own business, let's talk about it later."

"Well, fine, but if he wants to, feel free to contact me."

After the conversation was over, Tang Heng got up and walked out of the office.The distance from the third floor to the first floor is not far, but he deliberately walked very slowly, maybe it took a full 2 ​​minutes - when he came to the lobby on the first floor, he saw a straight figure at the door, holding a cup of milk tea.

Tang Heng let out a long sigh of relief.

When he went downstairs just now, he had a moment of panic: Li Yuechi won't disappear again, right?

Just like that time six years ago, when he woke up, he never saw Li Yuechi again.

Fortunately, this time Li Yuechi stayed by his side well, and even handed him the milk tea, and said with a smile: "Seeing that the students are queuing up, I bought a cup too."

It was very rich caramel milk tea. Tang Heng took two sips, then handed it to Li Yuechi: "Try it too."

After six o'clock in the afternoon, just in time for the students to eat in the cafeteria.Li Yuechi was wearing the simplest white T-shirt and jeans, with a cup of milk tea in his hand, no different from those students.Tang Heng stared blankly for a few seconds, and what the leader said rang in his ears.

The man actually gave Tang Heng his business card.

"Li Yuechi," Tang Heng tugged at his sleeve, "I want to ask you something."

Li Yuechi turned his head: "What?"

"Do you still want to... go to school?"

"Why did you ask so?"

"Just ask. Do you still want to?"

"Are you a graduate student?" Li Yuechi stuffed the milk tea to Tang Heng, with a smile in his voice, "I've read on the Internet that overseas schools don't distinguish between doctoral and master's supervisors, and assistant professors can also lead graduate students, right?"

"Ah?" Tang Heng was stunned, "Yes."

"Have you ever taken a graduate student?"

"I took one...not counting as my student. She is about to graduate, and the tutor has something to do, so she was temporarily transferred to me."

"Oh, how do you feel?"

"It's not good," Tang Heng said honestly, "I wrote a messy paper and felt good about myself. I was scolded a few times."

"Boys and girls?"

"girl."

"Then you also have the heart to scold?"

"If you don't scold her, you won't be able to graduate."

"I really can't imagine..." Li Yuechi raised his hand to smooth out the hair on the back of Tang Heng's head, "What does it look like for Teacher Tang to scold someone?"

Tang Heng said stiffly: "Very fierce."

"How fierce?"

"Students dare not cry."

"Really," Li Yuechi said, "It's so fierce."

When he said this, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was drawn out, as if he was deliberately acting for Tang Heng.Tang Heng instantly had the feeling that he was being scorned, and thought that Li Yuechi would be proud of being favored, if he was really his student, he would definitely be scolded by him so that he could put his tail between his legs.

If Li Yuechi is really his student... This scene seems a bit too weird, but there is a hint of joy in the weirdness.If Li Yuechi back then was his student now, at least Li Yuechi would not have to live so hard. He is a mentor, and he can justifiably pay Li Yuechi's salary.But another thorny question followed, what if he still fell in love with Li Yuechi?He is a mentor, he is a student, he has to abide by the principles of being a teacher...

"Be careful!" Li Yuechi suddenly embraced Tang Heng and pushed Tang Heng to lean on him.

Tang Heng came back to his senses and saw a puddle of cream on the ground.

"What do you think?"

Tang Heng felt a little guilty: "It's nothing."

Li Yuechi asked sharply: "Did they tell you something?"

"They... yes, they said that if you want to go back to Han University to study, you should contact them."

"There are conditions."

"I still want me to provide evidence that Tang Guomu violated the law," Li Yuechi said, and Tang Heng thought he was really tempted. "I really don't have any evidence. My mother must have it, but I think we'd better not get involved. These things... if you want to study, I'll try."

"How do you try?"

"I'm going to investigate my mother's companies. I have the power."

"Tang Heng," Li Yuechi suddenly pressed his shoulder, "You don't owe me this."

"I know, but I just feel that if you want, I should try my best to satisfy you..." Tang Heng remembered that they were in the teaching building of the Normal University that day, and Li Yuechi listened carefully to the female teacher's lecture through a wall sound.He asked Li Yuechi if he wanted to say hello, Li Yuechi said no, at that moment he felt like a knife was piercing his heart.

"I don't want to," Li Yuechi said easily but firmly, "I'm past that age. Do you know what I want most now?"

"Thinking about what?"

"Hurry up and watch Tang Guomu's sentence, and then I will take you away."

Tang Heng's heart beat heavily: "You take me away—"

"I can go anywhere, go back to Guizhou, or go to Beijing for a few days. I promised you that I haven't done it yet," Li Yuechi said with a smile, "even if I go to Macau with you and listen to your lectures, that's fine."

"Well," Tang Heng said softly, "I think so too."

"I've waited too long," Li Yuechi kissed the corner of Tang Heng's mouth when there was no one around, "I want to make up for all of this."
