make zero with tears

Cui Zhannan stayed abroad with his father for more than a week before deciding to return home.

Cui Jiaxing has the deepest relationship with this younger sister, but the younger sister married abroad when she was in her twenties, and the number of times the siblings have met over the years can be counted with one hand.No one expected their last side to come so quickly.

When the Cui family's father and son arrived there, the aunt was already on the verge of dying, and she kept hanging for a while, maybe because she wanted to take a last look at her brother.The matter of my aunt's illness has been kept a good secret, until the last moment to let my brother in China know.So until the aunt was buried, Cui Jiaxing seemed a little unresponsive.Why did the younger sister whom I had been caring about suddenly turn into a jar of ashes.

Cui Zhannan was exhausted these days.On the one hand, I have to help my aunt's family take care of my aunt's affairs, and on the other hand, I have to pay attention to my father's condition all the time.In addition, he has been acclimatized since he came here. One day when he looked in the mirror, he felt that he had lost a lot of weight and looked haggard.

But he couldn't fall down. If he collapsed from exhaustion, his father would have no one to take care of him.

These days, he has been in a foreign country and has never been free for a moment, so Cui Zhannan didn't care about domestic affairs at all.When he just got off the plane, he saw a missed call from Fu Xinglin on his mobile phone, but he was so busy at that time that he didn't have time to reply, so he thought about waiting until everything was done.

This busy is nearly ten days.After the aunt's funeral was settled, the father and son were ready to leave for the country.

On the plane back home, my father was asleep all the time.But Cui Zhannan knew that he was afraid of being seen with tears in his eyes, so he could only escape everything by sleeping.Cui Zhannan sighed softly and covered his father with the blanket, and after laying the seat flat, he also closed his eyes wearily.He hadn't had a good night's sleep for several days, and he was able to fall asleep immediately in such a not-so-comfortable environment on the plane.

It was already night in China when it landed.The father and son returned home, and after they settled down, Cui Zhannan immediately contacted Zhao Yi and devoted himself to work without stopping.Although having a mother in charge of the company will not cause chaos, but after walking for so many days, I will still accumulate some jobs.Cui Zhannan is not a person who likes to procrastinate. After all, he slept for a long time on the plane, and now he can't fall asleep, so he thinks he can solve the problem.

Secretary Zhao, who was always straightforward on the phone, faltered a bit after reporting his work.Cui Zhannan noticed it, so he asked, "Is there anything else that hasn't been explained?"

"That... Mr. Cui, has Mr. Fu contacted you these days?"

Cui Zhannan's brain froze for a moment, and he didn't realize who the "Mr. Fu" Zhao Yi was talking about. It took him a while to realize that he was talking about Fu Xinglin.Zhao Yi didn't mention it, but Cui Zhannan realized that, except for the unanswered phone call back then, Fu Xinglin never contacted him again, and he didn't even have any information.

This is abnormal.

Cui Zhannan frowned unconsciously: "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Cui, you may not have seen any news abroad these days. There was an accident in the robot competition that Mr. Fu participated in, and it was on the news. I can't contact Mr. Fu these days..."

Before Zhao Yi finished speaking, Cui Zhannan hung up the phone, and immediately checked the results of the robot competition online.He was still abroad on the day of the finals, and he was so busy that he couldn't breathe, so he didn't devote extra energy to pay attention to the situation of the game.something wrong?What happened?

As soon as Cui Zhannan clicked the "Search" button, news entries about this competition jumped out one after another.Cui Zhannan clicked on each of them, and the more he looked, the more dignified his face became.

To put it simply: The favorite team made a major mistake.In the final match, the robot of Fu Xinglin's team was directly thrown away by the opponent's opening and closing board.It was nothing at all, but the robot not only failed to stand up successfully, but also spontaneously ignited under many cameras, and a small-scale explosion occurred.No one or other robots were injured, only the robot made by Fu Xinglin's team was burned to a pile of scrap iron.

The negative impact brought about by this incident is neither big nor small. Although this kind of situation is rare, it is not unheard of in robot competitions.But Cui Zhannan knew that at least this situation was fatal to Fu Xinglin, their entire team and the company.

The clues can already be seen in the comment area.

Some people say that their company focuses on learning robots, which will be invested in education in the future.If the robots produced by their company have such serious safety hazards, who would dare to use them for children?

Cui Zhannan looked at these comments and felt his temples bulging.He immediately closed the webpage, found Fu Xinglin's number and called him immediately.However, the phone couldn't get through at all, and the voice prompts that the other party has shut down.

Cui Zhannan pondered for a moment, then immediately found Qi Dong's number and dialed it.This time it got through.

"Hey?"

"It's me, Cui Zhannan."

Qi Dong was stunned for a moment before he said: "Are you here to find Xinglin?"

"Where is he now? I can't get through to him."

Qi Dong sighed lightly: "He should go back to City D now."

Cui Zhannan's hand holding the phone suddenly tightened: "How is he...?"

On the phone, Qi Dong sighed again: "Actually, the accident in this competition has nothing to do with him, it is within us...someone was bribed by the other party and tampered with the competition robot, which led to such an accident at the competition scene." We are already doing our best to investigate this incident, accumulating evidence, and have lodged a complaint with the arbitration of the General Assembly, and I believe the result will be given soon. In fact, all of us know that this incident has nothing to do with Xinglin, but he He still blamed himself, he felt that he, the team leader, didn’t do a good job and didn’t supervise his subordinates to make such mistakes.”

Cui Zhannan's heart ached when he heard it.

"Then why did he go back to City D?"

This time, Qi Dong was silent for a longer time: "Although winning or losing a game is not important. But because we are already in contact with the education department, such a thing happened, and public opinion is not easy to control, which means it directly affects this cooperation. And at present, it seems that [-]% of this cooperation is going to fail. Our previous capital investment is basically concentrated on this project. Now that it is in vain, we may lose even our capital. A few days ago, Xing Lin offered to withdraw from the partner camp, took out his part of the shares, and barely filled the hole. Zhan Yang and I disagreed, but he insisted on this. Then he disappeared after that. I still I heard that a friend from my hometown seemed to have seen him at the train station. To be honest, we couldn’t get in touch with him.”

Cui Zhannan pursed his lips tightly, feeling a tightness in his heart, which made it difficult for him to breathe.He had only been away for ten days, how could so many things have happened?

"Thank you."

Before hanging up the phone, Qi Dong couldn't hold back: "That, Mr. Cui!"

Cui Zhannan paused for a while when he hung up the phone, and put it back to his ear: "Is there anything else?"

"Um... there's something I need to tell you. In fact, Xinglin wasn't in a good state before the game. Once I heard that he seemed to be arguing with someone on the phone. The other party seemed to be called...Shu or something. At that time, Xinglin was very emotional, which more or less affected his game state. I think this is the root of his self-blame, and the real reason for his decision to quit. You...you are not that related! I think , I have to let you know about him. Although I don't know why you haven't contacted him these days, I think he needs your comfort and company very much now. Also, Mr. Cui, if you see Xinglin , please tell him, we have been looking forward to his return, failure is nothing, the big deal is to start all over again!"

"Okay, thank you, Qi Dong."

After hanging up the phone, Cui Zhannan held the phone in silence for a few seconds, and then called Shu Jianlin.It was Shu Jianlin's assistant who answered the phone.

"Brother Shu is recording a show, so it's inconvenient to answer the phone."

"I'm Cui Zhannan, ask Shu Jianlin to call me back immediately after recording the show."

"Cui, Mr. Cui?!" The little assistant was taken aback, "Then, that brother Shu should be resting soon, I... oh, they are resting!"

Cui Zhannan pinched the bridge of his nose irritably, and said in a cold voice, "Give the phone to Shu Jianlin."

The voice in the receiver was noisy for a while, and then Shu Jianlin's voice came: "Xiao Nan? What do you want from me?"

Cui Zhannan took a deep breath: "A few days ago, did you call Fu Xinglin?"

The other party paused for a while, and said "um", "Yeah, what's the matter?"

"Did you quarrel? What did you say?"

Shu Jianlin laughed: "What? Your little boyfriend sued me again in front of you?"

"See Lin, he disappeared." Cui Zhannan's tone was extremely serious, "So I hope you can tell me the truth about what you said that day."

This time Shu Jianlin's tone was a little less frivolous: "Disappeared?"

"Ah."

"What's your situation?" Shu Jianlin muttered, "Actually, we didn't say anything that day. He just saw my Weibo and became suspicious, and I didn't lose my temper, so I quarreled with him. What? Did you disappear because of this?"

Weibo?Cui Zhannan suddenly remembered the microblog posted by Shu Jianlin in the dance studio that day.It's hard to say that Fu Xinglin recognized his feet or legs in the photo.

"Okay, I see." Cui Zhannan hastily hung up the phone.

At the same time, he called Zhao Yi back: "Book me the nearest ticket to City D."

Ms. Chen Shuzhen even heard Cui Zhannan's torment at night.As soon as Cui Zhannan put down the phone, the door of the room was pushed open by his mother.

"It's so late? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Cui Zhannan said perfunctorily, "How is Dad?"

"Falling asleep." Ms. Chen gathered her silk pajamas and came to her son, "I just heard you call and said you were going to City D?"

"Ah."

"I remember that City D is the hometown of Xingxing?"

Cui Zhannan was startled, and then realized that the "star" in his mother's mouth was Fu Xinglin.So he nodded again.

"How are you two doing recently? You haven't seen each other since you returned to China, right?"

Cui Zhannan looked at his mother's concerned eyebrows, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed softly: "Mom, Xinglin may...may be angry with me."

Chen Shuzhen was a little surprised: "What's going on?"

So Cui Zhannan simply told his mother what he had just learned.After listening, Chen Shuzhen was silent for a while: "Okay, you don't have to go to the company tomorrow, go to City D as soon as possible to see how the stars are doing."

Cui Zhannan looked down at the slippers on his feet, and said in a low voice, "Mom, I don't know if I should go to him."

"What are you talking about?"

"Mom, you said that if I go to him, does it mean that I want to be nice to him?"

Chen Shuzhen looked at her son as if she was insane: "Cui Zhannan, be yourself!"
