Through the past and the present, I regard you as the king

"Dad!" Mu Feng called out.

The middle-aged man was startled for a few seconds when he heard the sound, and then turned his head as if he didn't hear it. He stroked his leg, gritted his teeth, and tried to stand up from the ground.

Mu Feng hurriedly went to help him, but was pushed away by Mu Chengguo, his strength made him a little deflected, he couldn't push Mu Feng a few steps, but fell down again.

When Mu Chengguo was young, he was also a good-looking talent. Even when he was getting old, he paid great attention to his image and always made himself look radiant.Mu Feng felt extremely uncomfortable. He had severed ties with his family for only two years. When he moved, Mu Chengguo's hair was still completely black, but now it has turned gray.

Mu Chengguo still didn't appreciate Mu Feng's help, he didn't even look at him, and shouted: "Go, I don't need you!"

"Dad!" With his father's stubborn temper, Mu Feng knew that it wouldn't do any good to force him, so he could only squat down and check Mu Chengguo's legs, and then turned to ask the surrounding crowd what happened.

In the end, it was roughly figured out that an electric car scratched his father's bicycle when turning a corner, and then slipped away on the spot.

The two legs were not obviously broken or damaged from the outside, but Mu Chengguo couldn't stand up at all, and his expression of gnashing his teeth and frowning was not very good.Mu Feng judged that there might be a problem with the leg bone, but he was even more angry that half an hour had passed since his father's accident, and there was no one calling for an ambulance.

Mu Feng didn't have time to investigate the responsibility of the perpetrator, he first called 120 to send his father to the nearest hospital.

"Anyway, I'm a doctor, and you're a patient. I'll leave as soon as I send you to the hospital, okay?" Facing Mu Chengguo's glaring anger, Mu Feng compromised.

In the hospital, Mu Chengguo was lying on the flat car, and was pushed to the X-ray room by Mu Feng for a while, and pushed to the CT room for a while, without saying a word, and never said a word to Mu Feng.

The film came out, and it was indeed a broken leg bone.

Moreover, the examination showed that Mu Chengguo had osteoporosis, which was probably one of the reasons why he broke a bone after falling.Although this kind of fracture is not life-threatening, it needs surgical treatment and reduction as soon as possible.

Mu Feng originally wanted to treat him directly in this hospital, but the doctor told him that the orthopedic beds were already full and there was really no room for him.He understood the truth, but Mu Feng was really impatient. He took the film and the results and turned around to leave. At that time, he contacted his own hospital, and finally transferred a bed to transfer Mu Chengguo.

When his mother arrived at the hospital, Mu Chengguo was already lying on the hospital bed, waiting for the operation arrangement.

Mu Feng was kicked out by his father, and he sat on the bench outside the ward with his back arched, his forehead resting on his hands, and he saw Gu Xiangmei just like that.He stood up and called Mom in a low voice.

Gu Xiangmei first turned to look at her husband who would be lying on the hospital bed, and asked, "How is your father?"

Mu Feng said: "It's a broken bone and needs surgery...but it's not particularly serious, don't worry."

Gu Xiangmei was silent for a while, she saw Mu Chengguo closed his eyes and refused to talk to anyone, turned the doorknob, let it go again, and didn't go in.

Mu Feng stood aside and looked at Gu Xiangmei. The "severing the relationship between father and son" that his father said in a fit of anger was just a verbal ruling and had no legal effect.But he really didn't know what to say to his mother. It didn't mean that they were alienated by breaking off the relationship. It was just that the thorn between them was still there. As long as the thorn was not removed, they would never be able to return to their former relationship. harmony.

Mother is also old, although not as obvious as father, but the sideburns are indeed graying.

Mu Feng seemed to have been fed a bottle of acid, lowered his eyes and called "Mom" again.

In the afternoon, Mu Chengguo was pushed into the operating room. When he passed by Mu Feng, he rarely opened his eyes to look at his son. His gaze stayed on Mu Feng until the door of the operating room was closed.

During this time, they could only wait quietly.

Mu Feng asked his colleagues in the operating department for a glass of water, then turned back to the corridor and handed it to his mother.

Gu Xiangmei raised her head and looked at her son whom she hadn't seen for two years, when suddenly tears welled up in the corner of her eyes.The reunion planned by Mu Feng should not be like this, but the incident happened suddenly, and no one can escape now, but Gu Xiangmei cried like this, and even Mu Feng's eyes hurt.

"Mom," Mu Feng called out with a stern voice, squatting in front of his mother and wiping his tears with his sleeve, "Why are you crying?"

Gu Xiangmei held back her tears, forced a smile, and reached out to touch Mu Feng's face, "I lost weight, how have you been these two years?"

"Very good." Mu Feng said.

"After you left, your father's temper was not very good. He was often angry by himself, even when he was watching TV, when eating, and when he went out to buy groceries." Gu Xiangmei said, "In the past six months, he and several old My friend learned how to play chess, and then he gradually got better. Son, your father talks a lot, so you can't take it to heart..."

Mu Feng shook his head, "No, nothing, Mom."

"You are still young, but we are all old. Xiaofeng, don't be angry with your father, just bow your head to him and come back?" Mu Feng stopped talking when he said bowing his head, and Gu Xiangmei knew when he looked away This matter is useless, she glared at Mu Feng with sad and angry eyes, and asked, "Are you still doing that scandalous thing? Are you angry with us enough, son, we only have a son like you!"

Mu Feng stood up at once, "What do you mean by immoral things?"

"You—" Gu Xiangmei also straightened up, and looked at Mu Feng for a few seconds. If he didn't know that Mu Feng, like his father, was stubborn and refused to admit his mistakes, he would have been pissed off by the father and son.

Gu Xiangmei turned her head and saw a person, she sighed and stopped arguing.

Qi Shaochuan walked over slowly, called "Auntie" to Gu Xiangmei, and then said to Mu Feng, "I heard something happened to uncle, how is it now?"

Mu Feng said there was nothing serious, he asked Qi Shaochuan to take care of his mother, but he himself didn't want to stay here any longer.It's not that he has much resentment towards his parents, it's just that the thorn is too deep for their family. If the situation of meeting each other like this continues until the end of the operation, the result will be nothing more than the scene where the father and son broke up two years ago. Play it out.

Gu Xiangmei was right, she and Mu Chengguo were both old, so there was no need to quarrel over this matter again.

So Mu Feng chose to escape.

"One day, one day..." Mu Feng murmured to his mother with his back turned, one day what? He thought of Nian Qi, and the time when he and Nian Qi lived together in the small apartment.

Forget it, Mu Feng didn't continue talking, and walked away under Gu Xiangmei's piercing eyes.

After leaving the hospital, Mu Feng panicked and didn't know where to go, the small apartment was empty, his parents were both in the hospital, where should he go.Walking to the entrance of the hospital and standing on the busy street, Mu Feng was stunned for a long time, and suddenly felt that he had no home, no place called home.

In the end, he went back to "home", took off his clothes and wrapped himself in the quilt, and couldn't fall asleep. He didn't feel relieved until Qi Shaochuan called him and said that his father had been transferred from the operating room to the ward.

"Let's have a good talk this time," Qi Shaochuan said, "Uncles and aunts just wish you well."

Mu Feng held the phone and said "I understand", how could he not understand such a thing.But understanding is one thing, bowing his head and admitting his mistake is another thing, if he takes a step back today, his father's temperament will immediately force him to take another countless steps, until he agrees to get married and have children.

But that is impossible, Mu Feng will never have a wife who will die hand in hand with him.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Feng could hardly restrain himself, and found Twenty Seven's number.

"Nianqi," Mu Feng's voice was low and weak, and his head was in a state of confusion. He didn't even know whether the phone was connected, so he spoke into the microphone, "Nianqi, come back soon..."

The phone was placed to the ear, beeping.

At night, when he woke up, he could smell the aroma of long-lost meals in the room.

Mu Feng lifted the quilt and came out in a daze. He saw the lights in the kitchen were on, the range hood was humming, and a solid figure was standing in front of the stove, stirring the porridge and soup in the pot. A well-made stir-fry.

He thought he was dreaming, so he took two steps forward and hugged the figure from behind.

Nian Qi was shocked and dropped the long spoon into the pot, then relaxed and greeted with a smile: "My lord, are you awake?"

Wake up, which means he is not dreaming.Mu Feng got up from his back, looked at the porridge in the pot, was a little confused, and asked, "Why are you back?"

"Have you forgotten, you suddenly called me in the afternoon with a bad tone." Nianqi turned around, took a pair of bowls and chopsticks, led Mu Feng out, and pushed him to sit down to eat, "I'm worried about you, so I'll come back and have a look. "

Nian Qi sat opposite him and said softly, "Is something wrong?"

Mu Feng was stunned for a while, then said, "I saw my parents."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"Two years ago, they severed ties with me."

Nianqi never heard Mu Feng mention the family matter, so he knew nothing about it.But even if Nian Qi never knew who his parents were, he also knew that the split between father and son was not something that could be easily dismissed in the past or in the present.

He thought for a moment, and still said, "It will turn out to be a good thing."

Mu Feng looked at him.

"Although I haven't met Master and Madam, they must be a good pair of people who can teach you a son. This era is different from ours, son. Many things can be changed. Work, life or other things , as long as you want, you can always make them develop in a better direction," Twenty Seven's eyes slightly bent, he served Mu Feng with the food, and put the chopsticks away, "Isn't it?"

Living in the same environment for too long, some things really can't be seen clearly.Nian Qi has no relatives, no identity, no status, nothing, but compared to Mu Feng, he seems to know how to fight in this society better, which makes Mu Feng feel ashamed.

The food was extraordinarily delicious, and it was many times more delicious than takeaway food, but Mu Feng didn't have much appetite, so he was full after eating a small bowl, and left a lot of food.He felt that it was a pity that each plate was sealed with plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator.

He turned his head and saw Twenty Seven collecting clothes to dry on the balcony.

"Are you leaving tonight?" Mu Feng asked.

Twenty-seven hugged a stack of clothes and sat on the sofa to tidy them up, "I have to go, I still have things to do tomorrow."

"Do you want to see the store?"

Twenty-seven strangely waited for a short while before nodding his head, "Yes".

Mu Feng subconsciously believed that the pause might be related to something he was hiding from himself, but he didn't know what it was, and he didn't want to ask about it.Whether it is good or bad, Nianqi already has a measure in his heart to judge, he no longer needs Mu Feng to intervene in everything.

As long as he knows that Twenty Seven is still there, that's enough.

So Mu Feng sat down and concentrated on watching him fold his clothes, enjoying a rare peace.

Twenty-seven did not leave the apartment until the night was quiet and the subway was about to stop running.Mu Feng stood on the balcony, waved to him, and watched him disappear at the end of the ramp.

The next day, the small bookstore did not open.

Twenty Seven and Sister Hua were sitting in the nearby coffee shop they had agreed upon. He ordered a cup of black tea for himself and a cup of hot milk for Sister Hua, and waited for the people from the magazine to negotiate the contract.

"Actually, you don't have to be in such a hurry," Sister Hua said, rubbing her belly. "He shouldn't be short of money. If he wants money and status so much, why should he be with you? To be honest, I still think your move is too far away." Hurry up, you are very smart, no matter what skills you learn, you will be safe after two or three years."

Twenty Seven didn't turn her head to look at her, but just held the cup in both hands: "I don't have any more time, I can't afford to spend two or three years."

Before he finished speaking, the people from the magazine had already entered the store, and Sister Hua saw that he had made up his mind, so she didn't say much.

Two people sat down opposite, one of them was the young man from Niaowotou who came to discuss the situation with Twenty Seven last time.He took out his laptop, two printed contracts, a pen and a few pieces of paper, and glanced at the imposing Sister Hua next to him, and knew that this was Twenty Seven's staff officer.

"This is the contract we have drawn up, you can take a look first."

Nian Qi didn't move, Sister Hua directly took away the contract, and looked down one by one, there was basically no problem, but they dug some traps for Nian Qi on some small items.Sister Hua pointed out all the rules and regulations, expressed dissatisfaction with this, and asked to re-negotiate.

The contract negotiation started at ten o'clock in the morning, and they ate two pieces of cake in the coffee shop at noon, and then argued over some of them.

The other party thought that Er Qi was a newcomer and had never been in contact with the flat model profession, so he was offered a very low share.And Sister Hua said that he is an Internet celebrity, and his skills can be supplemented by learning, and [-] deserves higher commercial value.

Twenty Seven watched the two sides quarreling and felt sorry for Sister Hua, so she asked her to help her with a big belly.

In the afternoon, the contract was basically negotiated, and the revision n.0 version had already taken shape, so it was just a matter of printing it out and asking Er Qi to sign it, and then the work could start.When the magazine felt that the dust had settled, Sister Hua slowly dropped a blockbuster while drinking her second cup of hot milk.

"He has no ID card and is a criminal."

"What!!" The jaws of the two people on the opposite side were about to drop, and they slapped the table angrily.

Twenty Seven: "..."

Sister Hua was not in a hurry, she seemed confident and said: "His appearance has reached your standard for a flat model, there is no doubt about it, as long as a little training can come in handy. In the past two years, fashion magazines have emerged one after another. , you are a small magazine, you are not the best nor the most creative, you should really need his topical popularity to attract sales, and you will lose a lot if you lose [-]'s online publicity."

"Do you know black households are illegal?!" The magazine said, "Well, even if we secretly conceal this matter, but you know, the current Internet celebrity is only popular for a while, who can guarantee that he will be popular for a long time? What if in the future With disputes, how do we legally determine benefits?"

"Oh," Sister Hua smiled, "You have not signed yet, and you are starting to think about how he will get rid of the burden after he is unpopular?"

The magazine retorted categorically: "This is called planning for a rainy day."

Sister Hua nodded, "It's better than this. Don't sign for so long. Sign once a month or once every three months. When you feel that he is unpopular and has no use for him, just throw him a letter of termination. Let him do what he should do, how about it? If you are afraid that he will run away, you can write down my ID card to you as a backup for him."

The magazine's complexion is not very good: "...I think you are playing us"

"It's because you despise him as a black household, and you are afraid of causing a burden that you can't get rid of, and you don't want to let go of this opportunity to make money. This method is very good. At most, you and him are a little tired, and you can sign a few more letters and stamps. .”

"Sister Hua..." Nianqi couldn't help but speak.

"Shut up and drink your tea."

"..."

The two young men on the opposite side were obviously not the ones who could be the masters of the family. After much discussion, they decided to call the leader first.The young man avoided Ern Qi and Sister Hua during the phone call, so they didn't know what they said, but the conference call went on for a long time, during which the young man nodded frequently.

An hour later, the contract was finalized. It was basically the same as Sister Hua's idea, except that the liquidated damages were doubled, and Sister Hua's identity information was mortgaged to the magazine to ensure that Er Qi would not run away halfway. .

Coming out of the coffee shop, Sister Hua double-checked the contract before returning it to Twenty Seven.

Nian Qi thanked her, but during the discussion, she never had a chance to speak, and Sister Hua was in charge of handling all the matters, but some things seemed superfluous to Nian Qi, no wonder the magazine was so angry.

Seeing his incomprehensible expression, Sister Hua walked back to the bookstore on her stomach, sat down and said slowly: "Your current value is your popularity on the Internet. They come to you because of this. There are too many fashion magazines. To be honest, I am not optimistic about their family. They are not a long-term platform. If you are eager to go up, you need not only an opportunity, but also a springboard. The period of Internet celebrity is very short. Once you enter the public eye, some Things will be easy. If they want to use you to make money, you can borrow them to jump high, the short-term contract is clean and tidy, and when you leave, it will be too late for them to regret it.”

"Of course, if you don't go smoothly on this road, you can get out early."

Twenty-seven generally understood what Sister Hua said, but there was one thing he didn't understand, "Can you accept that I'm a criminal, and there are other people besides them?"

Sister Hua looked at Twenty Seven for a while, then lowered her head and smiled.

"Soon, your account will be settled, do you believe it?"

Twenty-seven had expressed disbelief at the time, but it wasn't until a long time later that he gradually recalled it, and thought that Sister Hua probably had the magical power of prophecy, so she could arrange everything so accurately.

Because later, Mu Feng asked him a very strange question, and that question would completely change his relationship with Mu Feng.
