Chapter 86

Chapter 86

After Tang Rufeng put his phone on the table, he just looked at Brother Fan, waiting for him to make a decision.

Seeing him staring at the phone on the table in a daze, without any sign of reaching out for it, he somewhat understood, thinking that it was Brother Fan who was struggling.

However, Tang Rufeng was still a little confused. Brother Fan didn't mind appearing in front of the Tang family, but now he was so worried about his family. Why was he still hesitating about this opportunity? This was not like his usual style.

"Brother Fan, do you have any concerns?"

Tang Rufeng asked, but in his heart he was thinking that after the captain came back, he would ask Brother Fan what he thought. After all, Brother Fan spent more time with the captain, and usually treated his teammates as their brothers.

Now facing these things, maybe I feel embarrassed to talk to him more?

"That's not the case. It's just that, Rufeng, you usually spend more time with the captain, and he seems to be able to get more things."

Hearing Tang Rufeng's question, Brother Fan looked up, his eyes slightly faded from worry about his family, and he rarely smiled as he looked at Tang Rufeng and reminded him with a smile.

"Ah? Hmm?"

After hearing Brother Fan's reminder and seeing the other party's meaningful look, Tang Rufeng's gaze fell on the mobile phone on the table, and then he reacted.

"Indeed, I usually spend a lot of time with the captain, and he looks just like an ordinary person now. I almost forgot about him."

Tang Rufeng's eyes were a little dazed, then he answered Brother Fan with a smile.

"It's okay. Please turn on my phone for me. Do you have my wife's contact information?"

Seeing him like this, Brother Fan knew that if he let him continue thinking like this, his mental state would definitely become depressed, so he calmly changed the focus of the topic.

"Oh, okay, I have it here. I have the contact information for my brothers' families."

After hearing what Brother Fan said, Tang Rufeng's attention was turned back. After picking up the mobile phone on the table, he did not use this phone anymore. Instead, he used the one he usually used. After opening the address book, he found Sister Fan's contact information.

"That's it. Her previous contact information was found by people online, so many people contacted her.

The better ones would offer to donate to her, while the worse ones would say something a little harsh. Even if it wasn't harsh, it was tinged with pity, so my sister-in-law changed her contact information.

Tang Rufeng looked at the contact information above and knew that Brother Fan would definitely ask questions after seeing it, so he answered directly.

After hearing Tang Rufeng's explanation, Brother Fan was silent.

"It's something she would do. Given her personality, even if I'm gone, she'll still live a good life and raise her children well."

"Yes, Fanwa is now well educated by her. When I contacted my sister-in-law during the holidays, I heard that Fanwa was very good in school and even won medals."

Tang Rufeng nodded, thinking about the Children's Day some time ago when he contacted the families of his brothers to understand their situation. Recalling what his sister-in-law said, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

It has been a while since the accident. No matter how heartbroken and sad we were at the time, those who are still alive still have to move forward.

Tang Rufeng, who is stuck in the past and can't get out of it, is really not suitable to appear in front of his brothers' families and bring back the emotions they have finally gotten over.

So Tang Rufeng didn’t have much contact with them under normal circumstances.

That is, he would contact them regularly during holidays to understand their current life. He would feel at ease only when he knew that they were doing well.

Perhaps those people also knew that Tang Rufeng was in a bad mental state, so every time they contacted him, they only talked about the good side.

So Tang Rufeng didn't know the details of their lives, but judging from their appearance, they seemed to be living an ordinary life without any major difficulties.

And now, after the sudden changes in the world, before Tang Rufeng took the initiative to contact them, they had already contacted Tang Rufeng in advance.

Because they knew their family's situation, the government contacted people like them first when issuing the relocation order. They were considered the first group of residents to live in the safe area designated by the state.

Being guarded is always much better than those places outside.

Although their lives are uncertain, what can be guaranteed is that as long as there is no large-scale unrest and no danger that cannot be controlled by national defense, their lives will not be in danger.

"Our rice cooker is really well behaved."

When Brother Fan heard Tang Rufeng's words and recalled the appearance of his own child, he couldn't help but smile even though he had heard about this before.

"I don't understand how you can name your child something like a kitten, so casually."

Hearing the word "rice cooker" from the other party, Tang Rufeng turned around and glanced at his brother in silence, then lightly tapped his fingers and made a video call to Mrs. Fan.

After hearing the voice on the other end of the phone ring for a while before it was picked up, and seeing the woman on the other end busying around with sweat all over her face, Tang Rufeng paused slightly, looked up at Brother Fan, but still didn't ask anything.

"There's some movement outside. I'm going to go out and see what the captain and the village chief have done with the things they've moved. Brother Fan, talk to your sister-in-law by yourself."

Tang Rufeng didn't wait for his sister-in-law on the other end of the phone to speak. After finishing his conversation with Brother Fan, he got up and went out.

Mrs. Fan on the other end of the phone was a little confused when she saw Tang Rufeng calling her via video, because in the past they had only communicated through normal calls, and the video calls were only because the child Fanwa wanted to see this uncle.

But at this time today, it hadn't been half a year since the festival, and it wasn't the time for Fanwa to be at home. Tang Rufeng contacted her like this, which really made her confused.

What puzzled her even more was what Tang Rufeng was talking about. It seemed like it wasn't Rufeng himself who wanted to contact her, but someone else?

Seeing Tang Rufeng leave the range of the mobile phone camera after saying something that made her confused, Mrs. Fan stopped working and looked intently at the other side of the phone.

Thinking back to what Tang Rufeng said to the person next to him when he left just now, what did he call the person next to him?

'Brother Fan'?

There are so many people with the surname Fan in this world, and the only one Tang Rufeng could call "Brother Fan" is her husband.

But...how is this possible!

Her man was already dead, blown to the sky, not even a single bone could be found, how could he suddenly appear now?

Even if, even if this world had mutated, and her old man Fan had appeared for some special reason, why didn't he go home and stay with Tang Rufeng? ...

There were so many thoughts in her mind, but there was only one thing that even Mrs. Fan herself could not ignore.

Even though she knew it was impossible, when Tang Rufeng called "Brother Fan" to the people around him, she never doubted whether Tang Rufeng's mental state was worse or something else.

Because even she herself was filled with expectations after Tang Rufeng called him Brother Fan.

"Long time no see, thank you for your hard work, my wife."

Listening to the sound coming from the phone, Mrs. Fan stared at the figure that appeared on the screen, her lips trembling, her eyes frozen for a moment, and then tears burst out of her eyes.

"Old Fan..."

It was like a whimper, choking the rest of the words in her throat. Mrs. Fan couldn't stop crying during this short period of time.

She thought she had accepted this person's departure, she thought she had forgotten the grief she felt at that time, she thought she was moving on, she thought...

She had too many self-conceived ideas, but they were all self-deception. When she saw the familiar face on the other end of the phone, she immediately tore off the mask of deception she had put up for many years, and time seemed to have returned to the moment when she learned the news.

"Don't... don't cry..." Brother Fan looked at his wife on the other end of the phone, feeling flustered and anxious.
