My Dear Miss Medical Examiner

Chapter 143: Passing on from the Fire (2�P�

Eighteen years later.

"Later later, the little forensic doctor became a unique forensic doctor, and the teacher of the surname who brought her into the profession has also become an authority in the industry, and her master's master, the famous and maverick beautiful forensic doctor, has also begun. With gray hair. With the joint efforts of the two generations, the technical investigation department of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau has changed from a department with a few people to a department with dozens of elite members, as well as the country’s super-first-class DNA laboratory, standardized physical and chemical laboratory, and video An outstanding multidisciplinary team such as the investigative laboratory has become a sharp sword to cut through the darkness in today's highly developed technology and rapid criminal methods."

"Speaking of this, I have to mention the Director Song. During her more than 20 years in office, all homicide cases in Jiangcheng have been solved, and there has been no unresolved case or unjust, false, or wrong case."

"Today is the day when they will retire."

The owner of the newsstand wore glasses and was reading a thick book in his hand. A few young girls ran over, chattering with excitement.

"Boss, boss, do you still have the book "The Chief Female Forensic Doctor"?"

The boss hurriedly put down the book in his hand and took out a new one from the newsstand: "Yes, I just arrived yesterday. The last volume is the finale."

"I want I want!"

"I want too, boss, give me two copies."

Colorful tickets were handed over in front of them. The boss smiled from ear to ear, put them away one by one, and put the books in plastic bags and handed them to them.

"Walk around, the sign sale is about to start, and there will be no place when it is late."

Several girls took the book, held them in their arms, and jumped on the bus at the station in three steps in two steps.

In the early summer morning, the street park was full of life. Young people running with headphones passed by the fountain, and the raised mist turned into a rainbow of seven colors.

Elderly people practicing Tai Chi in the square, aunts who dance square dancing, children running and playing, vendors selling hydrogen balloons, students practicing singing and raising their voices, and all kinds of ordinary people make up the most lively fireworks in the world.

At the hour, the clock rang eight times, and the giant LED screen in the square lit up.

"The morning news is over. Audience friends, thank you for listening. Next is entertainment time. The article "The Chief Female Forensic Doctor", which has been serialized on many popular domestic literary websites for six years, was announced last month, and the final publication One volume. As a popular ip, "The Chief Female Forensic Doctor" not only translated into multiple languages ​​and sold overseas, its film and television copyrights were also sold for tens of millions of transactions. I believe that in the near future, Police Officer Song and Forensic Doctor Lin will also use another This form is presented to the audience and friends. At the same time, today is the first time the author Jie Lanzhou appeared at the signing event in six years. Let’s follow our lens to see the grand event of the signing ceremony of "The Chief Female Forensic Doctor"..."

As soon as the picture turned, there was a long line at the entrance of Xinhua Bookstore, crowded with people.

The green light at the intersection turned red, and a BMW came from far and near, and slowly stopped by the side of the road, extending a white and slender hand from the car window.

"Boss, bring me two copies of today's newspaper."

"Hey, good." The boss took the money and passed the newspaper. The woman closed the car window again. He only had time to see half of a nice profile.

The red light quickly turned green again, and Song Yuhang set off in gear and glanced at the co-pilot next to him.

Lin Fanfei flipped through the newspaper, and a newsletter was published in the lower right corner of the "Legal System": This newspaper was informed that the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau will hold the 2030 Civil Police Retirement and Appointment of New Police Officers at the Jiangcheng Public Security Heroes Cemetery at 14:00 this afternoon. ceremony.

She folded the page and sighed softly.

Song Yuhang freed a hand to pat the back of her hand: "I went to work the last day, isn't it used to it."

Lin Yan heard her say, he snorted, and after decades of flicking, although the corners of the woman's eyes had fine lines, they were still well maintained and the charm still remained.

"Ha, what's not accustomed to me, I don't have to get up early to go to work anymore, I will wake up with a smile in my dreams, okay?"

At the end of the talk, the woman's voice fell down again, with a slight regret: "I just don't know Song Yan and Lin Xi today..."

Early in the morning, one said that he had something to go out and only came back at night, and the other said that he wanted to date his classmates, but did not come back.

Although they are their own children, because they are busy at work, Song Yan and Lin Xi have spent more time with their grandmother than with them since they were young, and they were even closer to Ji Jingxing than to her.

This has always been a pain point in Lin Nian's heart, especially Lin Xi, whose temperament and personality are very similar to hers, and she doesn't want their parent-child relationship to end up like her and Lin Youyuan.

During the conversation, the Municipal Public Security Bureau was almost there.

Song Yuhang parked the car on the side of the road, taking advantage of no one around, unfastened his seat belt, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

"Don't think too much, the children are older and have their own ideas and ideas, let them go."

***

"Hey, have you read the latest chapter of Forensic Medicine? It's been six years, and the corpse case in the real estate has finally been solved."

"That's not it, I saw it, oooooo, signing for today, I really want to go."

"I heard that this is the author's first public appearance. I don't know if it is a man or a woman. If he is handsome or not, if he is a handsome guy..." A policewoman held a book in a drunken state and lit up the starry eyes.

"What if it's a beautiful woman?" A colleague joked.

"Beauty? Beautiful women are not bad too. Just look at Director Song and Forensic Doctor Lin. Tsk tsk, especially our sister Lin, with that skin, I believe she was in her early thirties."

Several colleagues leaned together to talk, and the lively male policeman sat on the table.

"Hey, hey, speaking of them, do you think of the prototypes of forensic doctors and criminal police in this book, and them..."

Several people looked at each other, and at the same time their eyes lit up, and the male policeman licked his lips, just as he was about to fall in love.

With a notebook under his arm, Duan Cheng took a cup of coffee and walked past the door: "What are you doing, don't get together, clean up, and get ready for a meeting."

The male policeman slid off the table and stood up straight, grinning and saluting a non-standard military salute.

"Understand, here comes it!"

When Song Yuhang came out of the locker room to change his clothes, Lin Fan also walked with people from far and near.

The woman wore a white short-sleeved shirt uniformly distributed by senior police officers. Feng Ji was still unbuttoned, revealing a thin collarbone and a touch of graceful spring. The short skirt circumscribes the waist with an uneven grip, the legs are straight and slender, and the high heels are stepping into the wind.

The moment he passed by, Lin Tired of smashing the folder on her chest as usual.

"Last time, happy cooperation."

A smile appeared on the corners of Song Yuhang's lips, and as usual, he held her elbow slightly and let go.

"Happy cooperation, Forensic Lin."

***

That day, Lin Tired had a meeting as usual, listening to the report of the case of the people under her hand, and the last case she handled was also closed. At the invitation of the new forensic doctor, she gave them the last anatomy class.

Facing Teacher Da Ti, she placed the scalpel vertically in front of her chest as before, and closed her eyes slightly in silence.

Someone turned on the camera.

After a long time, Lin Fan didn't open his eyes either.

"Ms. Lin..." someone whispered.

The moment she closed her eyes, Lin Fan felt a sense of reluctance and secret pain in her heart.

Want to... bid farewell to the dissection table?

Lin Fei opened his eyes and looked at the thirsty eyes in front of him, and a smile appeared on the corners of his lips.

But it doesn't matter, she believes that someone will pass on this career, just like her back then.

"You can stand closer and observe, don't rush to get the knife first. Observing the appearance of the corpse is also the top priority in forensic medicine."

"After recording the body temperature, corpse spots, corpse stiffness, and corruption in detail, observe the state of all parts of the body surface. The general requirement is to check and record the scalp and hair condition from head to toe, front to back, and left to right. ( Whether there is hematoma, lumps, alopecia areata, etc.); whether the pupils on both sides are dilated; whether the conjunctiva is congested (bleeding); whether the nasal cavity and external auditory canal are flowing out; whether the teeth are falling off; whether there are bedsores on the back and sacrum; whether the inguinal lymph nodes are swollen; Whether the limbs are injured or scars, whether the body surface is deformed, etc., will become important clues for us to solve the case."

"The above inspection steps are indispensable, and even more will be done in actual operation. After you have examined the appearance of the body, if there are doubts or the cause of death cannot be inferred from the appearance of the body alone, you can apply to the higher-level department for the remains Anatomy."

"In the process of dissection, I have talked about methods and methods countless times, and today I will only talk about the most important point—"

She raised her head awkwardly, the eyes under the goggles were so sharp and hot, which made people shocked.

"Respect the dead."

"What lies in front of you now is not a cold general teacher, but a life that was once alive. Like you, he has parents, wives and children, brothers and sisters, and relatives and friends, and he has lived as hopeful as you. ."

"When you see a corpse at the crime scene for the first time, you will experience physical discomfort, nausea, vomiting, cold hands and feet, pale face, and sweating all over. These are all normal. As the number of dissections increases, the feeling of discomfort will increase. A lot of relief, but I hope that no matter how many times you have been to the scene and how many bodies you have dissected, you will never, never be numb."

"Always remember the tension, fear, worry and fear when you saw the dead for the first time, remember this feeling, and then go find the truth for him."

Lin Fan did it as he talked. He moved quickly. After all the demonstrations were completed, he took off his gloves and walked to the whiteboard as usual and picked up a pen to prepare to record.

Everyone held their breath and waited for her conclusion, but the person wrote eight characters stroke by stroke:

The right to live, speak for the dead.

Some students were moved: "Ms. Lin..."

"Ms. Lin, don't go, just stay."

"That is, you can re-employ after you retire."

"Sister Lin, we have been together for so long, we can't do without you."

There were also tears in their eyes.

She turned around to look at the immature or mature faces in front of her, a smile appeared in her eyes, gently put down the pen, turned and waved away.

"Goodbye."

The future of forensic science is left to you.

***

Arrange the work at hand and make a handover with Xue Rui. It is already afternoon, and a few rays of sunlight are spilling on the table through the blinds.

Song Yuhang didn't move in the office chair.

Xue Rui moved his lips: "Song Bureau--"

She seemed to come back to her senses: "Oh, I can rest assured that the job is handed over to you. Before, there were some field leaders who came to dig people and I didn't give it to me. I just thought that only if you take my class, I can retreat with peace of mind."

Xue Rui's expression was a little embarrassed: "It was never my turn to say this. It is the brothers below. Everyone is reluctant to leave. Obviously there are still a few years left..."

Song Yuhang waved his hand to stop his words: "I have decided. You can go out first and bring me the door."

Xue Rui had no choice but to put on a wide-brimmed hat and salute, then turned around and went out.

After he left, Song Yuhang watched the light spot falling on the table shrinking and shrinking.

I don't know if it's because of her age, she is more and more likely to think of the past.

Those days when I was in the police academy, when I went to Zhao Junfeng's home to eat and drink and talk, when I was a young man after graduation, when I was born and died with Lin Wei.

Time passed slowly, and the photos she put on the table changed from one person to two people to a family of four.

Those thrilling criminal police careers have also become medals of merit in a drawer and certificates of merit hanging on the wall.

Song Yuhang's eyes moved one by one. There were awards given by the Ministry of Public Security when the "Fenyang Wharf Broken Body Case" was solved, and the title of "Outstanding Policeman of the Year" awarded to her by the Binhai Provincial Public Security Bureau, and some people gave her Of pennants.

It says: Honesty, law enforcement is like a mountain; justice guardian, social conscience.

The inscription was given to Song Yuhang, director of the Jiang City Public Security Bureau, and all public security officers from the family of the XX case.

There will be pennants like this every year.

Song Yuhang walked over, carefully took it off the wall, rolled it up and put it in a cardboard box.

Lin Fan has been standing here for a while, and she has heard the conversation with Xue Rui just now. Looking through the crack of the door, Song Yuhang is bathed in the sun, bent over to pack things, and a few strands of white on the side Hair looks particularly dazzling.

It’s really a wonderful thing that two people who have been fighting against you in the past have gone through a long journey together, and also have love crystallization.

Lin Fan thought so, his eyes were hot, and he pushed the door in: "I think Xue Rui is right. If you don't want to retire, you can..."

Only she will go directly into her office without knocking on the door and not reporting.

Song Yuhang straightened up and looked at his lover.

No matter how resolute and unsmiling she is outside, the name Song Yuhang is enough to make criminals frightened, but in front of her, the softest side of the beast is always revealed.

Song Yuhang put down things, curled the corners of his lips, walked towards her, opened his arms, held the person in his arms, and put his chin on her shoulder.

Even though they have been together for many years, Lin Fan still feels at ease and at ease when she is held by her.

Her hugs and kisses from time to time are also enough to move an elderly woman.

Lin Fei was startled, and slowly returned to hug her, buried her head in her shoulder blade, her voice a little dull: "Yu Hang..."

Song Yuhang patted the back of her head lightly: "It's okay. I want to accompany you and your children more. After the summer vacation, they should also leave home."

Those two little troublemakers have made her suffer from childhood.

Lin Fan sniffed, "It's good to go, you and I are left at home, clean."

Song Yuhang held up her face, put his forehead against her forehead, circled her waist, jokingly: "Then what are you crying for?"

"I'm not, I didn't cry..." Lin Weigui insisted, but the red corners of her eyes completely exposed her fragility, and she choked up as she spoke.

"It's not... it's not... The retiring ceremony for her mother to raise such a child in Dalian will not come. Today is still my birthday. Lin Xi and Ji Jingxing are better than kissing me, ooh."

Song Yuhang laughed and pulled a tissue from the table to her, holding the person in his arms and coaxing: "Lin Xi was naughty when he was a child. We never raised a child. My sister-in-law helped take care of it. Besides, it's all a family, you What kind of vinegar is this?"

Lin Wei: "I don't care, I just feel uncomfortable in my heart, I'm so uncomfortable, how can the little **** be so disobedient? I had known that I would not give birth at that time. I blamed you..."

It seems that when people are old, she loves to remember the problem of muttering in the past and she is not the only one who has it.

Song Yuhang couldn't laugh or cry, and while wiping her tears, he coaxed and persuaded: "It's alright, I'll be attending the retirement ceremony in a while, all makeup is spent."

Lin Nian's mind suddenly rang the alarm bell, and raised his head quickly: "Which? Where is it? Is it obvious?"

Song Yuhang pulled the person to the window, facing the sunlight, gently lifted her chin, and carefully examined: "The lip color is a little light, but it's okay, I'll make it up for you."

"You? Where did you get the lipstick..."

Before Lin Fan's words fell, her eyes widened suddenly, her face in her pupils getting closer and closer, and finally covering her lips.

It turned out to be... such a supplement.

Before she could resist, Song Yuhang went over with one hand and pulled down the curtain.

"Well……"

Her lips and teeth intertwined until she was almost out of breath.

Song Yuhang spoke to her ear: "Yuhang brand lipstick, a 20-year-old brand, do you still like it?"

"Fuck you." Lin Nian's face was flushed, as if stained with rouge, he sipped her, but then buried his face in her neck, rubbing it with attachment.

With a smile on the corners of his lips, Song Yuhang gently stroked her back to comfort her.

"Didn't you always want to go to Canada? I just have time now, or Australia, Northern Europe, New Zealand...I will accompany you wherever you want to go."

The two were enjoying a rare time alone, when a police officer knocked on the door: "Song Bureau, the car is here."

"Okay, let them wait a while." Song Yuhang raised her voice and responded, letting go of the person, and scratched her nose again.

"But now, we are going to attend the retirement ceremony first."

Lin Gian pulled the corners of her clothes: "Is the makeup unspoiled?"

Song Yuhang smiled: "No, you are the most beautiful."

Before leaving, Song Yuhang took the coat from the hanger, and Lin Wei picked up her mobile phone from the table as a mirror. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a book called "The Chief Female Forensic Doctor" next to the computer.

Inexplicably, she felt that the cover and the name were familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

The word forensic medicine attracted her attention, and Lin Yan picked it up and looked at it, "Do you still look at this kind of thing?"

Song Yuhang put her coat over her arm and walked out: "Hey, Xue Rui just came here to give it away. The author said it was pretty good. They are all watching. I can use it to pass the time when I'm okay."

Lin Yan took it in his hand and turned over two pages in a hurry: "True or false, this kind of suspenseful reasoning book usually has no factual basis. I can single out thousands of mistakes."

Song Yuhang smiled, the backs of the two people drifting away in the corridor.

"You thought it was for you to write an autopsy report. How can ordinary people have access to the cases we handled..."

***

Jiangcheng Martyrs Cemetery.

The induction ceremony of new police officers will be held here every year, and there will also be groups of old police officers who leave their favorite positions after they are awarded titles to young people.

Lin Wei still remembers that Song Yuhang also brought her here many years ago. At that time, she said: "This is not only a place where yin and yang are separated, but also a place where the old and the new alternate. Generations of detectives sleep here, and generations are young. The detectives from here go out from here..."

She is right. They have given titles to many young people here, watching them slowly grow into excellent people’s police, and seeing off many comrades-in-arms here. Those who can stand here alive to participate in the emeritus ceremony are just lucky. A small part of it.

After Song Yuhang took the lead in sweeping the tombs of the elders, everyone lined up back to the monument to the martyrs.

The world is silent, the pines and cypresses in the cemetery are evergreen, and the four characters "Public Security Heroes" hung on the lawn wall not far away. The prismatic stone pillar with the hero's name sings towards the sky alone, reflecting in the setting sun. Cold light.

Witnessed by the 512 public security heroes who died in the Jiangcheng City Public Security Bureau and the 97 seniors who are about to retire, the young people raised their right hands and put them to their temples to solemnly swear.

"I swear: I volunteer to become the People’s Police of the People’s Republic of China, devote myself to the lofty cause of people’s public security, and resolutely be loyal to the party, serve the people, enforce justice, be disciplined, and be not afraid of sacrifice! To maintain the overall stability of the society and promote social fairness and justice , To ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment and strive for life!"

No matter what they will experience in the future, Lin Nian thought that at this moment, facing the police badge, predecessors and monuments, their hearts must be full of longing, passion and sincerity.

Because she and Song Yuhang were also one of them. The difference is that they have changed from a person who needs a title to a person who puts on epaulettes for others.

She followed Song Yuhang all the way, put on epaulettes and collar flowers for the young people, and smoothed their ruffled collars.

With tears in their eyes, almost everyone tensed their bodies, raised their hands to their temples, and saluted solemnly and holy: "Thank you, leader!"

Song Yuhang and Lin Wei also stepped back, stood up straight, and returned a standard military salute.

After the induction ceremony of the new police officers is over, the retirement ceremony of the old public security police officers.

Lin Fan had been bored with this kind of red tape countless times, and when it was really his turn, the police officer walked to her with a tray covered with satin cloth.

Xue Rui saluted her: "Comrade Lin Wei, I sincerely thank you for all you have done for the public security cause of the motherland. Please hand in your police officer ID, armband, epaulette and collar flower."

Lin Wei stood motionless, allowing them to take off their armbands and put them on the tray. The epaulettes adorned with silver olive branches were also taken off, and finally they got the flowers.

During this process, some old comrades could not help but blush in silence.

Xue Rui stood still: "Forensic Lin..."

She took out the police officer's card from her pocket and handed it over, always a little slow.

The setting sun pulsed at the corners of her eyes and her eyebrows, Lin Fei stood back, no one knew whether she was crying.

Xue Rui only saw that her hand was about to put the police officer's badge into the tray, and he paused again, and then gently swept the police badge with her thumb, and then gently put it down.

He took the medal of merit from the tray and pinned it to her chest, and then backed away with the two police officers, and solemnly saluted: "Take off your hat!"

A row of old policemen who were about to retire in front of them took off their wide-brimmed hats and put them under their armpits. The young people behind them did the same. They raised their hands at the same time, and the past and the future met at this moment.

"All of them, salute to the seniors!"

After the retirement ceremony, Song Yuhang stayed alone again. Holding a bottle of Moutai in her hand, she pushed aside the weeds on both sides of the road and walked slowly along the narrow stone steps.

Along the way, her comrades looked at her with a smile, Song Yuhang stopped in front of Zhang Jinhai's tombstone, poured a glass of good wine for him, got up and left, and then walked forward.

As the grass darkens and the dew wets the trousers, the scenery here is obviously much more dilapidated than it was just now. Song Yuhang paused and squatted down in front of the already mature stone stele. His fingers slowly stroked the peeled words on it, and he touched a hand of debris.

She moved her throat slightly, unscrewed the lid of the wine bottle, took out a cup from her pocket, filled it up to her lips, tilted one hand, and spilled the clear liquor on the tombstone.

"Dad, brother, this cup to you." After saying that, he raised his head and drank it, wiped the corners of his lips, his eyes hot.

"Today I retired. Together with Lin Wei, Lin Xi and Song Yan are about to go to college. Mom's body is still healthy, but the legs and feet are not as big as before. Xiao Wei and his sister-in-law are also very good. By the way, brother, sister-in-law. Married and married again, but don’t be angry, Liang Shi treats her very well to Xiaowei, and she has really had a hard time during your absence."

As Song Yuhang said, he poured himself another glass, and was grabbed by the wrist when he was about to look up and drink it all.

She raised her eyes and saw that Lin Fan didn't know when she found her. She stood in the grass-colored sky, smiling at the corners of her lips.

"I knew you would be here."

Song Yuhang moved his lips. Before she could speak, Lin Wei brought the glass of wine over and reached for the tombstones of the two of them.

"Dad, brother, I respect you with this cup, we are all well, don't worry!"

After all, with a raised hand, all the spirits fell into the throat.

Lin Fan wiped off the water stains on the corners of his lips, turned the cup down, and signaled that he had finished drinking. The wind blowing brought the fragrance of grass and trees in the mountains and forests and bursts of wine in early summer.

Song Yuhang spilled the bottle of wine, got up slowly, said goodbye to his father and brother, and then took Lin Fan back.

"What do you want to eat for your birthday today?"

Lin Wei: "Anything will do, go home first."

Song Yuhang smiled: "That won't work, go shopping, and buy you some nice clothes."

I thought she was joking, but when I got in the car, it was really not the way home.

Lin is suspicious: "Are you hiding something from me?"

Song Yuhang laughed, and turned the steering wheel to the left, and merged into the city traffic: "What can I hide from you? You can see that there is a strand of other people's hair on him."

Lin Wei "snorted": "That's true, forgive you for not dare."

While driving, Song Yuhang talked to her for a couple of times: "I just feel that I used to focus on my work, but now I finally retire. I want to spend time with you and your children, and take care of the things I haven't seen before. Movies, the streets you didn’t go shopping with you, and the meetings you didn’t have appointments, all make up for it."

***

The signing ceremony did not end until the evening.

Before the staff found Xie Lanzhou and asked him to have a meal, people had already slipped out of the backstage wearing a mask.

In order to prevent the fans who were still at the door of the bookstore from discovering, he took off his jacket and threw it into the trash can while walking, put on a sweater, pulled his hat on top of his head, looked around and called while walking, watching the taxi. Coming over, quickly reached out and stopped.

"Hey, sister? I'm back here! I'm rushing home just after I'm busy, have you received grandma..."

As soon as the voice fell, I heard a cold voice from the opposite side: "Song Yan, you are so slow, did you climb back?" He hung up the phone.

Song Yan was stunned and threw the phone on the seat.

Okay, Lin Xi, I feel upset if I don't scold me for a day, isn't it?

Having said that, the boy looked at his watch and didn't know how long his mother could drag him. He looked a little anxious and told the driver.

"Master, Qingshan Villa, please drive faster."

***

During the two hours that Song Yuhang took her to the mall, she looked at her mobile phone once every ten minutes on average, and bought perfume and jewelry from clothes, shoes and bags.

Lin Fan felt that something was wrong more and more, and gritted her teeth and pulled her ears: "Say, did those little rascals do something bad again? This time it was a fight or a smashed glass, or the teacher came to visit the house, so you won't let me return Home."

"It hurts... It's a lot of people..." Song Yuhang succumbed to the pain, and smiled hard: "It's really not... It really doesn't... Why would the teacher come to visit the house after they both have vacation..."

As soon as the voice fell, the phone in his pocket shook, Song Yuhang's eyes lit up, and she pulled down her hand.

"Alright, alright, go home."

Lin Fei cursed as he walked: "You are accustomed to them, frustrated and embarrassed. The last time Lin Xi and her classmate's parents all found the police station, didn't you have a lesson?"

Song Yuhang's face is full of cattle: "The palms of the palms and the backs of the hands are all meat..."

***

When she got home and the lights of the villa were on, Lin Fan realized that Song Yuhang was so painstakingly lonely, just to give her an unforgettable birthday.

Even if two people have been together for more than 20 years, it is impossible to tell when things like cases will come. It is common to be woken up late at night by the phone and put on clothes, let alone the whole family. On her birthday, she is often crowded in the car, in the office, or in the wilderness to light a candle, stuff a box of small cakes, and sing a birthday song.

And birthdays are also a somewhat special holiday for Lin Fan. After all, her birthday is Chu Nan’s death day. While she was enjoying the blessings of her family and eating cakes, that girl, her best friend But he can only sleep in the ground.

So she can only do it, but today is an exception.

When Song Yuhang released the hand covering her eyes, the room was brightly lit, and the glass windows were decorated with balloons and ribbons.

The table was covered with snow-white tablecloths, a bunch of fragrant flowers, and all kinds of dishes prepared.

Lin Xi walked out with the cake with candles in it, swaying with the wind, slowly burning.

Ji Jingxing also pushed Mother Song out, Liang Shi and Xiao Wei followed her, just like Lin Xi was close to Ji Jingxing, Xiao Wei was also very close to this aunt.

She has been studying and working abroad for these years, and when she saw Lin Fan, her eyes were slightly wet, and she rushed over with red eyes.

"Aunt!"

Lin Nian was hit with a full heart, and slowly raised his hand to touch the back of her head: "Xiao Wei, I've grown up."

Xiao Wei let go and hugged Song Yuhang again: "Uncle."

Lin Fan's facial expression management collapsed: "Call Aunt!"

Xiao Wei concealed his lips and smiled, and he fluttered a lot, the longer he was, the more beautiful he was.

"It's the same as before."

After that, he pushed Lin Xi who was carrying the cake in front of her.

Lin Xiwu struggled to herself with a reluctant face: "Sister, don't push me..."

"Hurry up. Today, these are all you made, and the dishes were made by yourself according to the recipe. If you have done a good job, you should let your mother know."

Lin Fan smiled at the corners of his lips, watching her daughter's height in the swaying candlelight, standing there extraordinary and slim.

She has European skin and hair color, but her pupils have inherited her black and bright, sharp facial features, large and three-dimensional temperament and personality like her, but they are like Song Yuhang, such as fights and fights will never lose .

Lin Fei watched, her eyes were slightly moist, and before she finished speaking, he took the initiative to take a step closer, took the person into his arms, and gently patted her back.

"Sorry Lin Xi, I have worked hard all these years, Mom... loves you."

Lin Xi was taken aback. If Song Yuhang hadn't taken the cake quickly, maybe he would have confused the two people at this moment.

She never thought that Lin Nianhui would take the initiative to hug her. When she was born, she came out five minutes earlier than Song Yan. During these five minutes, Song Yan had an incorrect fetal position and almost died. Later, she stayed in the incubator. It took more than a month to get better, and when I grew up, I also had colds and fevers, headaches and brain fever from time to time.

Because of this incident, she always felt that the two mothers put too much care and love on Song Yan, and all she got was so little.

She was angry that she was not reconciled to her grievances, so she used mischief and maverick like Lin Fan when she was a child to attract the attention of adults.

Lin was tired of perceiving this change, but was helpless or had no time to take care of their feelings.

After all, she and Song Yuhang are too busy, but being busy is not an excuse to ignore the child, she knows.

When she wanted to get close to Lin Xi, the child grew up and became more rebellious when she reached adolescence.

She has beaten and scolded and hated iron for not making steel, but because of this she cried in silence for countless times, Lin Xi didn't know this.

This was the first time she saw her mother cry. In her impression, Lin Fan was a strong woman. Another mother who looked tough on the surface was actually much softer than her.

Standing high in the police station, she also said one thing in front of them. She never asked them what they thought, and under the guise of being good for her, she even sent a male classmate into the hospital a year ago, and her parents lifted her up. As she ran to the door of the Public Security Bureau to make trouble, she didn't see Lin Tian shed a single tear.

But such a strong mother was trembling slightly, lying on her shoulders at this moment.

Those hot tears fell into the socket of her neck, making Lin Xi feel sour, and slowly raised her hand to hug her.

"Mom... happy birthday."

Lin Nian curled her lips and smiled, but the tears flowed more and more. Without wanting to lose her attitude in front of her daughter, she wiped the corners of her eyes and let them go.

"Thanks for your hard work today. Get hungry. Eat quickly. I bought clothes and shoes for you and Song Yan when I went to the mall. I will go back to my room and try them later."

A black-and-white photo of a young girl was also hung in the living room, the incense table was cleaned spotlessly, and the candle offerings were changed every day.

She was puzzled when she was young, and it was hard to ask Lin Fan, so she ran to ask her other mother.

"Mummy, is the **** the portrait hanging in the living room a relative of our family?"

Song Yuhang shook his head: "No."

Lin Xi Congying was early, slightly confused: "Is that mother's ex-girlfriend? Just like you."

A soft smile appeared on the corner of Song Yuhang's lips, and he touched her head lovingly: "No, your mother and I, no matter in the past or the present, we only have each other."

The child became even more puzzled: "Who is that? Why should her picture be hung in our living room?"
