ashamed

"..."

This time it was Tong Youming's cold and reticent father who spoke.

"Aren't you all late? What do you look like? Come in quickly." He scolded in a low voice, "I came here with your mother to visit your uncle's house. I heard that your brother's marriage seems to be settled. Passing this way I just wanted to see you, nothing else."

It was already past work time, and there were few people coming and going at the gate of the hospital. Tong Youming straightened up under his nose, and looked up to see that the place where Si Jun was standing just now was empty.

He breathed a sigh of relief, the phone in his pocket seemed to vibrate twice, it should be a text message.

"Dad, I know." He suppressed all thoughts of parasitizing on luck, and after a brief greeting with his parents, he made an appointment to come to the hospital gate to wait for him to have dinner at noon, and then reported to the director of the department, admitting that he had slept Nodding his head, he accepted the lesson humbly and promised not to set an example.

Tong Youming is a person who has never lied since he was a child. Any of his fabrications and denials are poor performances, which are very easy to be seen through. In other words, there are very few occasions that make him decide to lie. Today is one of them.

He never hesitated for a second, only Si Jun.

"It's so dangerous, I almost got caught. Good boy."

I looked at the text message but couldn't laugh no matter what.

——Only "he" is a secret that must be guarded.

Gritting his teeth and washing his face with tap water in this weather, Tong Youming swept the cold breakfast into his belly, changed into his surgical gown and went to the operating room to stand by.A major operation sometimes requires the cooperation of several doctors who are responsible for different areas of the body, each responsible for their own part.

This time the task was to cut tumors on the body surface and repair wounds. Tong Youming was in the front row. The technique of cutting could not make any mistakes. The patient was lying down. When he bent over, his whole back twitched with pain. He had no choice but to think about Si Jun in his heart, scolding him so much that he sneezed a dozen times.

Before the noon break, he was sitting in the corridor drinking milk. He met Tu Ge, a senior sister who had already officially joined the job here. The other party had a rough morning. A burn patient who was difficult to take care of came, and he had to apply medicine and change bedding Yes, Tong Youming watched her come over and sat down heavily, and handed over another box of banana milk beside her, "Thank you, sister."

"Serve the people..." Tu Ge bit the inserted straw, weakly, "Shall we go to the cafeteria to eat later, I'm going to be so hungry."

"No, my parents are here today and will be with them at noon."

"Parents are here to investigate?" Tu Ge was surprised.

"How could you come here to see me just because of Chagang?" He smiled and shook his head, "There are relatives here who are getting married."

While talking, it was time for off-duty. They chatted and walked down the stairs together with many people in white clothes. Before they reached the main entrance, Tong Youming saw his parents standing at the corner in the morning At the place, the mother was holding a bag in her hand, and she was talking to her father. After seeing him and Tu Ge, the expression on her face was obviously different.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

Tu Ge carelessly bumped him with his elbow, "I think I'd better say hello to my uncle and aunt...it would be too impolite to leave after being seen. Hey, will they misunderstand?"

"I think they've misunderstood."

He had a splitting headache and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.

"Mom and Dad, this is my friend...ah no, senior."

Since Tu Ge has a relatively generous and cheerful personality, there are also many friends of the opposite sex like Tong Youming, not to mention that he doesn't like girls himself, and there will be no estrangement between the two of them because of ambiguity, so the relationship has always been very good; but This kind of intimacy of pure friendship is very meaningful in the eyes of outsiders who don't know the truth, such as what Tong Youming's parents think now.

The second elder took a look and saw that the height and appearance of the two children matched so well. Tong Tong of their family has been a chronic person since he was a child. It actually gave them a kind of belated comfort as parents.

They usually seldom worry about Tong Youming's private affairs, but at this time they seem to be eager for quick success. No matter how stupid Tu Ge is, he can see that Tong Youming's parents are looking at her from the perspective of a future daughter-in-law, and they have come to a conclusion Very satisfied with the result.She was so embarrassed that she wanted to retreat, "Uncle and aunt, I, I left before I had eaten..."

"Hey, girl, why don't you come with us?"

Tong Youming almost knelt down. "Mom, it's not the kind of relationship you think..."

It was too embarrassing to say this, Tu Ge's face turned red instantly.She looked at Tong Youming's eyes full of resentment, is it okay?You pay my wife's innocence! ?

Tong Youming wanted to cry, but the parents here thought they had finally become enlightened, and made a decision for their son without authorization, "You're welcome, let's go."

He didn't even have time to see his father's face, and was pushed onto the sidewalk by the side of the road by his mother.

Tong Youming felt extremely guilty after eating this meal in a tasteless way.

Because in his opinion, this kind of "forced marriage" is a disguised form of betrayal, and he feels sorry for Si Jun.

On one side are unaware parents, and on the other side is a reluctant female friend. He is caught in the middle and doesn't know what to do, so he can only lean over to the other party and whisper, "Sister, please feel wronged first, and I will go back later." Let me explain to you..."

"I said, don't you have a girlfriend? Why don't you dare to take it home and use my old lady as a substitute!" Tu Ge grinned.

"No, not a girlfriend..."

A son without a mother is a long story.Tong Youming buried her face in her palms, this time she suffered both physically and mentally.

Going to work at [-] o'clock in the afternoon, they walked back from the restaurant at [-]:[-], Tu Ge was discussing with Tong Youming's mother how many ways to make bitter gourd, just like a caring little padded jacket who was too involved in the drama; Tong Youming and him Dad walked behind without any eye contact or language communication. This state has existed reasonably for more than ten years in their mutual acquiescence, and it will not make the father and son feel uncomfortable and embarrassed, as it should be.

Today, however, seems to be different.

"It's time for you to graduate. You should find a girlfriend. You don't need to hide it from us." His father said.

Tong Youming has changed to passive resistance: "Dad, it's really not."

"Even if it is not now, it is still possible to develop it."

It is neither inquiring nor accommodating, but closer to a suggestion, or a tone of command, just like asking him to turn off the TV after dinner and go back to the room to do his homework when he was a child, without coquettishness and objection.

And for many years, he had given up understanding everything his father had imposed on him, and it was only on topics related to love that he felt a little bit of sadness.

"I see."
