Wu Huiwen said slowly: "I want to go and see Zhang Lin..."

Qiao Liang's heart trembled slightly. Although Zhang Lin left, Wu Huiwen did not forget her. This time he came to Jiangzhou for a business trip. Although the schedule was very tight, he still wanted to take the time to see Zhang Lin.

这让乔梁有些感动,又欣慰.

“好的,我陪你去.”乔梁点点头.

"I won't bring my car tomorrow. You can take a taxi to pick me up early in the morning. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the hotel. We'll rush back before breakfast. Can you?" Wu Huiwen said.

Qiao Liang nodded: "Yes, but since we are going to come back before breakfast, we have to set off early."

“几点合适?”吴惠文道.

Qiao Liang roughly calculated the distance from Jiangzhou Hotel to the suburban cemetery and said, "It's half past 5."

"Okay, listen to you." Wu Huiwen nodded, then put out the cigarette, stood up and moved his body.

Seeing Wu Huiwen's actions, Qiao Liang knew that he was about to leave, so he stood up and said goodbye.

The next morning, Qiao Liang got up at 5 o'clock, finished washing up, and went downstairs.

此时,天还没亮,天空中下着蒙蒙细雨.

Qiao Liang stopped a rental car at the entrance of the community and went straight to Jiangzhou Hotel. When he arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Wu Huiwen was standing there with an umbrella.

Wu Huiwen was holding a bouquet of white flowers in her hand, and I wonder when she would have prepared it.

接着吴惠文上车,车子直奔郊区公墓.

When we were about to arrive at the cemetery, the sky was already bright, but the sky was still gloomy and the drizzle was still falling.

The taxi driver was unwilling to drive to the entrance of the cemetery and said that coming here early in the morning would bring bad luck.

Qiao Liang didn't force himself, so he asked the taxi driver to wait at a certain distance from the entrance of the cemetery. Then he got off the car and walked over with Wu Huiwen, and entered the cemetery together.

In the misty rain and fog, the cemetery was silent, looking gloomy and solemn.

Qiao Liang led the way, while Wu Huiwen followed behind with an umbrella.

Qiao Liang forgot to bring an umbrella when he went out. In the rain and fog, his hair and clothes were a little wet.

When he arrived at Zhang Lin’s tomb, Qiao Liang stopped.

Wu Huiwen also stopped, staring at Zhang Lin's tombstone, staring at Zhang Lin's black and white avatar on the tombstone, with a solemn and sad expression.

After a moment, Wu Huiwen handed the umbrella to Qiao Liang, slowly placed the flowers in his hand in front of Zhang Lin's tomb, and then stood there, staring for a long time, standing silently for a long time.

Qiao Liang stood beside him and remained silent. Looking at Wu Huiwen at this time, thinking about Zhang Lin who was sleeping here forever, his heart felt ache and cramped.

After a while, Wu Huiwen murmured softly: "Some people are dead, but still alive, and some people are alive, but already dead..."

Qiao Liang's heart was ups and downs, and An Zhe also said the same thing about Zhang Lin's death.

The cool morning breeze of autumn blew, and Wu Huiwen was wearing a thin place, so she couldn't help but shudder.

Qiao Liang took off his coat and put it on Wu Huiwen.

Wu Huiwen looked at Qiao Liang gratefully, and then silently looked at Zhang Lin's tomb.

After a long time, Wu Huiwen sighed deeply, then raised his head to look at Qiao Liang: "It's time for us to leave."

Qiao Liang nodded, and the two of them looked at Zhang Lin for the last time, then slowly turned around and left.

At this time, the rain was a little heavier, and Qiao Liang held an umbrella for Wu Huiwen.

Wu Huiwen pulled Qiao Liang: "Don't let it get wet, just get closer to me."

Qiao Liang was standing on Wu Huiwen's left side at this time, holding an umbrella with his right hand. In order to let both of them cover the umbrella, Qiao Liang changed to hold an umbrella with his left hand, and his body approached Wu Huiwen, and subconsciously embraced Wu Huiwen's waist with his right hand.

Wu Huiwen did not refuse, and took the initiative to lean against Qiao Liang. The two of them walked out together with an umbrella.

At this time, Qiao Liang felt a special feeling when he was walking in the rain with Wu Huiwen.

At this moment, this feels very pure.

After leaving the cemetery, the two walked towards the place where the taxi was waiting.

After a while, Wu Huiwen said: "What do you usually call Zhang Lin?"

"Sister Lin." Qiao Liang said.

Wu Huiwen nodded and was silent for a moment: "Xiao Qiao, let's discuss something."

"What's the matter?" Qiao Liang said.

Wu Huiwen pursed her lips: "From now on, when there are only two of us, can you call me sister too?"

Qiao Liang's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but stop, looked down at Wu Huiwen, and her bright eyes were looking at him.

Wu Huiwen asked himself to call him his sister. Qiao Liang knew that this was undoubtedly Wu Huiwen's high regard and politeness towards him, and it was also a manifestation of closeness. He couldn't help but feel honored and even felt flattered. But he thought, if you call him Sister Wu Huiwen, what prefix should you add in front? Sister Huiwen? Sister Hui? Sister Wen? Or just call me Sister?

It seems inappropriate to think about it.

Seeing Qiao Liang silent for a moment, Wu Huiwen said: "Aren't you happy?"

"No, no." Qiao Liang shook his head quickly, "I'm very happy, very happy."

"Then you call me." Wu Huiwen looked at Qiao Liang with a gentle look, with some encouragement and expectation.

Qiao Liang hesitated for a moment: "Sister Wu."

Wu Huiwen nodded and agreed, and said, "Your name is Sister Zhang Linlin, why don't you call me in that pattern?"

"This..." Qiao Liang felt it was hard to say for a moment and scratched his head.

Seeing Qiao Liang like this, Wu Huiwen said understandingly: "Don't make things difficult for you, it's great to call this."

Qiao Liang nodded.

Then the two continued to move forward.

After a while, Wu Huiwen said: "Xiao Qiao, do you feel that you are going well since you started working?"

Qiao Liang thought for a while: "The first few years were smooth, but later he went to the death and even got beaten up with his job. Now it seems to be smoother."

Wu Huiwen nodded: "You are still young and have a long way to go in the circle in the future. If you want to truly grow and mature, and want to truly achieve your goals, you will not experience a few ups and downs, setbacks and tempers."

Qiao Liang said: "But there are also people who have been smooth sailing from start to success."

Wu Huiwen shook his head: "Most of those people rely on their background or relationships. They have not received real training and are not real success. Only those who have been tempered through ups and downs will have a strong heart and ability to match them. In other words, those who have been ups and downs are elites."

"The ups and downs are all elites..." Qiao Liang murmured and repeated this.

Wu Huiwen nodded: "Yes, some people, if they sink, are decadent and will never rise again. However, some people, no matter how deep they sink, will never give up, will always remain optimistic and firm, and will be persistent in believing in what they are fighting for.

Such people will become stronger after several ups and downs. For them, in their opinion, the ups and downs they experience are not hardships, but precious wealth in life. The value of this wealth cannot be measured by money and will be enjoyed for life.

In our society, in our circle, there are many such outstanding people. They are undoubtedly the elites in our society and circle. Those who have been in a state of decline can only serve these elites, and can only be at the bottom, looking up at the elites with envy, jealousy and hatred..."

Qiao Liang couldn't help but think that Wu Huiwen's words made sense and nodded: "Sister Wu, actually I think you are an elite, the elite in our circle, and the elite among women."

"Me?" Wu Huiwen smiled faintly, "Actually, I am still a certain distance from the real elite."

"This shows that your mentality is very positive, and it shows your spirit of struggle and persistence." Qiao Liang said.

"Are you praising me?" Wu Huiwen said with a smile.

"I'm looking up at you." Qiao Liang said.

"You don't need to look up to me. Since we are privately calling each other siblings, I hope you can look up to me." Wu Huiwen said sincerely.

Qiao Liang couldn't help but nodded, and felt that Wu Huiwen looked down on him very much, and that he felt that he was a little arrogant.

Qiao Liang continued: "Sister Wu, although you said I don't need to look up to you, and although I agreed, I can't help but feel at ease, and I still..."

Wu Huiwen smiled slightly: "When you have a certain degree of strength, have a considerable confidence and confidence, reach a certain position and stand at a certain height, you will not be like this."

"Maybe that will take a long time." Qiao Liang said.

"Everything needs to be a process, and growth and maturity are the same." Wu Huiwen paused for a moment and then said, "Actually, everything you experience is training your thinking and mind and promoting your growth and maturity."

"for example……"

“For example, what you are experiencing recently.”

"Sister Wu is talking about..."

"You know." Wu Huiwen said meaningfully.

Qiao Liang blinked, as if he understood what Wu Huiwen meant. She should be referring to what happened after the investigation in Jiangzhou of Guan Xinmin.

Wu Huiwen continued: "Lao An and I talked about something while walking by the river last night. After coming back, I thought for a long time. I clearly felt that the current situation in Jiangzhou is very delicate. Lao An seems calm at the moment, but his heart should not be calm. He seems to be thinking about something."

Qiao Liang nodded and said that these all happened after Guan Xinmin left Jiangzhou.

Wu Huiwen said: "Xiao Qiao, do you have any premonition?"

"I..." Although Qiao Liang had thought a lot during this period, he was always confused because of the limitations of vision and thinking. At this time, facing Wu Huiwen's question, he was a little confused, shook his head, and then said, "Sister Wu, what did you feel for the premonition?"

Wu Huiwen was silent for a moment: "I seem to feel that there is an undercurrent surging."

"Undercurrent?" Qiao Liang's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but stand, staring at Wu Huiwen in a daze.

Wu Huiwen nodded calmly.
