Chapter 119 Let Me Stay
Chapter 119 Let Me Stay
Political Department of the Southern Military Region.
Political Commissar Qiao looked at the man in front of him, his eyes complicated. He took out a divorce agreement and handed it to Song Changzhou, "Please sign it!"
Song Changzhou looked down at the agreement, his lips trembling slightly and his fists clenched.
Political Commissar Qiao looked at him motionlessly, paused, and then reminded him, "Comrade Song Changzhou, this is for the sake of your career. Her going to the United States alone will have a bad impact on you. Please sign! After you sign, we will publish a notice in the newspaper."
After closing his eyes and regulating his breathing, Song Changzhou picked up a pen and signed on it.
Political Commissar Qiao looked at the divorce agreement and sighed inwardly, "How unpredictable things are!" This young couple used to be so loving and well-matched.
Political Commissar Qiao was relieved for Song Changzhou, but he was also worried that he would be stubborn and refuse to sign, which would put his future promotion in trouble.
"I didn't recommend you two get married in the first place, but it seems like this is fate. I hope you can get over it!"
Song Changzhou had known that this day would come, but when the divorce agreement was handed to him, his heart still skipped a beat. He seemed to be able to clearly hear the sound of his heartbreaking.
Zhang Yuwan is no longer in China, so there is no point in keeping this agreement.
"There is one more thing. I believe you know it! Congratulations!" Political Commissar Qiao took out another letter of appointment.
"The military district cadres are already in the conference room. Deputy Brigade Commander Song, please go with me to accept the appointment!" Political Commissar Qiao made a gesture of invitation.
As the two men moved, Political Commissar Qiao slapped his forehead as if he had just thought of something. "You're old now, and your memory is not good. You always forget things."
He pointed at Song Changzhou and asked, "You have to pay back your pension. If you're not dead, you won't get it, right?"
"Hand over the money today!" Political Commissar Qiao stretched out his hand for money.
Song Changzhou had a cold face and laughed, "I don't have any money!"
Political Commissar Qiao's eyes widened. "Where did all that money go? I'm telling you, this is public money. You must return it."
Song Changzhou was not afraid of boiling water and said indifferently: "It's all spent."
"You...you...give me back the letter of appointment!" Political Commissar Qiao was so angry that his head was smoking. He reached out to snatch the letter of appointment. This Song Changzhou was really messing around.
"Just deduct it from my salary! Just leave me twenty yuan every month." Song Changzhou took the letter of appointment and divorce agreement, turned around and walked out without even looking at Political Commissar Qiao.
When I got to the door, I saw Political Commissar Qiao standing there, panting angrily. "Let's go! Everyone's waiting! Let's go to the appointment meeting!"
Political Commissar Qiao felt that he could not stay alone with Song Changzhou, and that he would be angry to death sooner or later.
……
In the evening, Song Changzhou returned home and saw An Li waiting at the door with a lunch box in her hand. Song Changzhou glanced at her and reluctantly took out the key to open the door. "It's inconvenient for you to come all the way from the hospital. You don't have to come here every day."
"I'm not tired! The fish head and tofu soup made in the cafeteria today is especially delicious. I brought it back for you. It's still hot! Here!" An Li's eyes were full of smiles, her long hair gently draped over her back, and she followed Song Changzhou into the house.
"How much? I'll give it to you." Song Changzhou said calmly.
"You're so vulgar! I want you to drink with me. I can't finish the portion I ordered." An Li moved closer to him.
Song Changzhou moved calmly, "An Li, please don't come to me all the time. It's not a good influence. I'm a man and I'm fine, but as a woman, it won't be good if people spread rumors about you."
"I'm not afraid of a female comrade, I don't need you to worry about me." An Li looked unhappy.
"I mind, alright!"
"Song Changzhou!" An Li's face was pale, tears welled up in her eyes, and she shouted at him.
An Li broke down and started crying, "Brother Changzhou, I've liked you since I was ten years old. I've liked you for fourteen years. You have no idea how much effort I've put in during these fourteen years just to be close to you. Fourteen years! Do you know how hard it was for me to wait? How many fourteen years can a woman have?"
"An Li, I'm sorry!"
"I don't need your apology!"
An Li threw herself into Song Changzhou's arms, crying, "Brother Changzhou, I beg you, please let me be by your side! Let me accompany you!"
After saying that, she climbed up Song Changzhou's neck with her arms like vines, stood on tiptoe, put her lips close to him, and asked for a kiss.
Song Changzhou pulled An Li away and angrily said, gritting his teeth, "An Li, please respect yourself!"
"Go! Get out of here now!"
An Li almost lost her balance, her face covered with tears, and suddenly she smiled miserably, "Brother Changzhou, look at me, you don't even want to look at me?"
She looked at Song Changzhou's turned-away face, feeling extremely miserable. She wiped her tears and hardened her heart before proposing a condition, "Didn't you say you owed me? You let me stay by your side and never leave you. This is all I ask. Consider it your repayment of the favor. How about it?"
Song Changzhou looked at her calmly, "An Li, we are all adults. I will not agree to your request."
An Li was determined not to give up until she achieved her goal. She stared straight at Song Changzhou and said, "I won't give up. Sooner or later, you will realize that I am the only one who is most suitable for you."
After saying that, he picked up his bag and strode away.
Song Changzhou closed the door calmly and sneered.
He took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, took a wine glass, lay on the recliner, looked at the moon in the sky, filled a glass, raised his glass to the moon, and said, "Cheers to you."
Drink it in one gulp.
Then he filled another glass and raised it to the air, "To you, too."
He tilted his head back, his Adam's apple rolled, and the second glass of spicy and stimulating wine came into his mouth.
He poured a third glass, twirled it in his hands, and muttered, "Zhang Yuwan, this is for you."
He drank one cup after another, not knowing how much he had drunk until he lost consciousness.
……
Zhang Yuwan was lying on a hospital bed, gasping for breath, her hair wet with sweat sticking to her face. She seemed to be enduring some pain and suddenly screamed twice.
"Ah~"
"Ah~~~~"
Someone helped her wipe the sweat and tears. She trembled all over and looked at the person next to her, holding the other person's hand tightly, tears constantly falling down.
Suddenly there was another scream. She was in so much pain that she tried to tilt her neck back. Her face turned red and the veins on her neck bulged.
"Ah~~~~~"
The people around him were becoming more and more anxious, and they seemed to be saying something to Zhang Yuwan.
After another burst of pain, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength and lay on the bed like a rag doll.
No matter how the people around her called out to her, she didn't respond at all. Her pupils gradually shrank, her life slipped away bit by bit, her body remained motionless, and only two lines of clear tears flowed into her hair.
Song Changzhou suddenly sat up, his throat felt itchy, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "puff".
It’s a dream!!!
Song Changzhou couldn't stop shaking, stood up stiffly, walked to the table, poured himself a glass of water, and after drinking a large glass, his heart was still beating wildly.
What on earth had that woman been through? How could she endure it when she was so delicate?
Is she really like in the dream?
about to die?
