Chapter 135 Pollution 12 Close Family
"Commander Li, all researchers have been safely evacuated."
Li Yanze stood in front of He Yan, his whole body tightly wrapped in black combat uniform, only revealing a pair of eyes. He turned his head to glance at Guan Ruoshen who came to report, raised his leg and kicked He Yan who was sitting on the ground.
Through the glass window on one side, red rain was pouring down, the ground was blood red, and red light was interweaving through the black filter plate.
This was the first time Li Yanze got so angry at He Yan.
Perhaps it was because he was just a step away from death, He Yan's heart was still beating wildly and refused to calm down.
"Go back and don't make me repeat it to you a second time."
Li Yanze stepped hard on his shoulder, and did not let go when he saw He Yan frowning as if enduring something.
Li Yanze saw his straight gaze, which was not dull and dazed, but rather filled with excitement.
I felt inexplicably irritated. I had been a gentle and kind parent for four years, but it was all ruined today.
Li Yanze loosened his feet and tried to leave but his ankle was suddenly grabbed.
He Yan felt the cold leather of the military boots, trembled a little, and refused to let go.
"If you're not satisfied, why don't you come a few more times? It doesn't matter to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yanze stepped on him back, and the back of his head hit the back wall with a dull thud.
"That's what I taught you? Huh? He Yan?"
Li Yanze was not angry that he accepted the task, but that he did not listen to the warning and insisted on waiting for him to retreat before leaving.
He Yan didn't understand why Li Yanze raised him, but he vaguely grasped a key point - for Li Yanze, He Yan's life was very important and could not be threatened in any way.
So when he felt that Li Yanze was in danger, he could threaten him with his own life to get him out of danger immediately.
Watching him dying bit by bit through the glass was a scar that would forever rot in He Yan's heart.
"What did I teach you? No matter what happens, your life should be the first priority. Did you learn that?"
He Yan smiled. Li Yanze couldn't understand what he was so proud of.
Or in other words...what's so cool?
Li Yanze retracted his foot, folded his arms and looked down at He Yan.
Although they have been together for four years, he doesn't seem to know this child very well now. He has grown up, which often confuses Li Yanze.
"I have remembered everything you taught me. But what about you?" He Yan looked up at him, still smiling, but his brows were tightly furrowed, as if tears were squeezed out of his throat.
"Have you ever thought that because I'm waiting for you at home, you can't die no matter what?"
"I only took that one risky action. What about you? Every time you left, I was worried, wondering if you would come back, wondering if I was waiting for the news of your death or your real life without any missing limbs."
He Yan had never said these to him before, and Li Yanze was stunned for a moment.
"I shouldn't have kept you around."
Li Yanze looked at him with a look of disappointment, not as if he was looking at him, and his voice was light and fluttery. He Yan was not afraid of this sentence, because that was not reality. The reality was that Li Yanze had raised him by his side.
What he was afraid of was Li Yanze's eyes that seemed to be reminiscing about something.
The "invisible elephant" that has always been present in the house can no longer be pretended to be invisible.
Why did Li Yanze look for him and why did he give so much for him?
"Commander Li, I'm not questioning your way of education." Guan Lerong put on the headset, stood in front of the gate with a gun, and cleaned up the pollutants.
"Adolescents are more sensitive, so parents should communicate more and listen more."
Li Yanze had a blank expression on his face as he raised his knife and killed the two pollutants. One could only see the red light flashing from the blade, but could not clearly see his movements.
“I just communicated and listened.”
"That's called scolding and quarreling." Tang Funian was taking over all the defensive weapons and taking the time to join the conversation.
"The survival instinct that He Yan learned since childhood is that if a person doesn't care about himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Think about it differently. This is not a threat. This is for your own good, even at the cost of your life."
"I don't want him to risk his life for me. I never taught him to do that." Li Yanze was very annoyed and became more and more violent.
Guan Ruosen moved away in disgust, worried that the water would splash on him.
"He Yan is not a child anymore, and you still treat him as a child. Be careful not to get into trouble." Guan Ruosen remembered something and reminded him in a calm voice.
Li Yanze hummed and Guan Ruosen laughed.
She was sure that Commander Li did not understand her meaning.
The wolf cub was raised as a puppy, and now it drools at its owner every day. If you want to kick it away, is it too late now?
Guan Ruosen didn't think it was necessary to remind Li Yanze, since He Yan himself was confused anyway.
"He Yihong..."
He Yan had been sent back home by Fei Liang, who dug out the materials that Li Yanze had given him to apply for his ID.
The second page was a piece of information, a small one-inch photo. He Yan looked at it for a while and couldn't help but look at himself in the reflection.
The contours of the eyebrows and eyes are at least 70% similar.
"Commander Li, we'll drop you off here."
He Yan immediately came back to his senses and put away all his things.
He had just put away his things when Li Yanze came in, his eyes full of fatigue. He glanced at He Yan who was looking at him in the living room.
"You're back."
Li Yanze ignored him and continued rummaging through the drawers, looking for something.
He Yan looked at him and said calmly, "Your cup is the second one in the first row under the tea cabinet."
Li Yanze paused, found the things as he said, and discovered that there was no water in the teapot.
He Yan walked towards him with the small teapot on the coffee table and poured him half a cup of hot water.
"That's right, I can drink it now."
Li Yanze pursed his lips, looked at the teacup in his hand, his eyelashes drooping in the heat.
"He Yan, after the joint entrance exam, where do you want to go?"
He Yan looked at his profile and faintly smelled the bloody smell on Li Yanze's body.
"Research Institute, Army, United Government, which one do you choose?"
He Yan clenched his wrist, tightening it more and more, and he couldn't let Li Yanze look at him.
"You will support me no matter what I choose?"
He Yan asked Li Yanze tentatively, but his face was gloomy and there was a burning anger in his heart.
"Yes." Li Yanze drank the water in one gulp and put it casually on the coffee table, his voice a little hoarse.
"I won't interfere."
fraud.
"Research Institute." He Yan did not hesitate, his eyes sliding uncontrollably from his nose to his lips.
Two liars.
"Really? Have you thought about it?"
Li Yanze finally looked up at him, his eyes were as gentle as before. He Yan was eager to break such gentleness, but he answered obediently.
"I've thought about it."
Li Yanze let out a long sigh and reached out to pat his head.
He Yan watched him turn back to his room with slow steps, and reached out to tightly grasp the cup of water he had just drunk.
"He Yihong..."
Fei Liang was surprised for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses and exclaimed. He Yan was wearing a school uniform and seemed to be asking casually.
"Why did you suddenly think of asking him?"
He Yan had just the right amount of curiosity on his face. "I heard that he is my biological father. After the joint entrance exam, I will go to the A-district research institute, so I may not have a chance to ask him."
Fei Liang smiled and patted his shoulder: "That's true."
"He Yihong is Li Ming's former superior. Don't underestimate Li Yanze. He Yihong was his superior in the beginning and brought him up from a rookie."
"It's a pity that he died on a mission later."
"That's all?"
He Yan asked in a calm voice, his eyes and eyebrows hidden in the darkness, his tone was steady.
"I'm from the public security department, not affiliated with them, so how can I know too much? If you want to know the details, ask your sister Guan."
"Your sister Guan was a trainee at the same time as Yan Ze, and she entered the Liming Academy together."
No wonder the two of them were hiding and whispering.
During the red light radiation period, the joint examination will proceed as normal.
There is no abnormal fluctuation yet, and Li Yanze can still spend some time with He Yan every day.
Both of them seemed to have forgotten their previous unpleasantness, and Li Yanze still acted like an open-minded and gentle patriarch.
He Yan...became much more obedient in Li Yanze's eyes.
Of course Li Yanze was reluctant to let him leave, but compared to He Yan's safety, nothing else mattered.
"There's a girl in our Public Security Department who has liked you for a long time. You're free tomorrow, why don't you go meet her? A few days ago, she said that He Yan had an exam and you couldn't leave. Now that it's over today, it should be okay, right?"
Fei Liang stood beside Li Yanze's electric scooter and tried to persuade him. Li Yanze supported the scooter with his long legs, sat on the seat, and freed one hand to hold a cigarette.
The artificial light was pale and lifeless. He turned his head to the side with a slightly indifferent expression. The smoke blurred his expression.
"Forget it. It's not good to have people around me. It will hurt others and myself."
Fei Liang was strangely silent, and finally just turned around and smoked one.
"You sound so pessimistic, even at such a young age." Fei Liang said vaguely, holding a cigarette in his mouth.
He Yan hid in the shadows on the side, watching Li Yanze quietly.
He Yan suddenly found it very funny, as if he had to spy on Li Yanze like a mouse, or irritate him, in order to catch a glimpse of his true self.
Behind the gentle, strong and capable parent... is the pessimistic, tired and lonely Li Yanze.
"Hey, Xiao Yan has finished the exam and is out?"
Li Yanze immediately turned it off, fanned away the smoke with his hand, and looked at He Yan with a smile.
"How did you do on the test?"
See, that's it.
It was clearly agreed that they were the closest family, but He Yan was always isolated outside a thick glass cover, watching him from afar.
"Play as normal."
Li Yanze smiled and rubbed his head, waiting for him to sit on the electric scooter.
"Fuck."
The last few days.
Li Yanze leaned against the door and looked at He Yan, who was skillfully prying open various cans in the kitchen and making food that tasted quite good.
"In the future in Area A, maybe I'll have the opportunity to eat organically grown vegetables and fruits instead of these canned foods."
He Yan didn't even raise his head, and said in a steady tone: "I have only taken nutritional supplements before. For me, canned food is the most delicious thing."
Li Yanze shook his head and smiled.
"You just haven't eaten it before, so you think canned food is the best and you only want to eat canned food."
All the chaotic and dissatisfied emotions that He Yan had suppressed were ignited by his words.
"You know this again? You think you've raised me for four years, so you know everything I think and do?"
The iron spoon was thrown back into the pot with a bang.
Li Yanze held his forehead and sighed softly: "Xiao Yan, can we talk?"
"Is there anything else to talk about?" He Yan turned and looked at Li Yanze. "I'm going to be sent away soon anyway. Do you still need to talk to me?"
"I want to know what you have been struggling with recently. What happened that made you avoid me?"
He Yan shuddered all over, and his back felt numb as if something had scratched it.
Li Yanze saw through him, but did he know?
He Yan thought maliciously. He knew that when he was sleeping on the hospital bed, someone in the bathroom just across the wall went crazy, messing himself up and breaking countless soaps he had used.
He doesn't know.
He Yan felt both relieved and disappointed.
Seeing his evasive look, Li Yanze walked over to him, took the iron spoon and stirred it, deliberately moving closer to He Yan.
"Tell me, I was also your age."
He Yan seemed to be frightened and ran away, keeping a distance from him.
Li Yanze was wearing a black short T-shirt and slim black trousers. He had a thin waist and long legs, and the muscles on his arms were beautifully defined. He didn't look bulky at all.
Half of his face was hidden in the heat, his long eyelashes drooped. He looked at the things in the pot, chuckled, and looked up at He Yan.
Li Yanze did nothing. This scene was very familiar to He Yan.
But He Yan felt that he couldn't stand it anymore. The intense emotions and impulses were gentler than hatred and dirtier than family affection.
"Are you in love too early? Don't you dare tell me?"
Seeing that he lowered his head and had that gloomy expression again, Li Yanze made irresponsible guesses.
"It looks like she's in a premature relationship, but she's afraid I'll find out."
"No!" He Yan blushed and snatched the spoon from his hand.
"If there is, there is. Did I say no?" Li Yanze folded his arms and leaned close to his ear, smiling and reaching out to pinch his hot ear.
He Yan almost smashed the spoon into the pot and turned to stare at him.
All sorts of messy words were on his lips, and in the end he just uttered two pale words: "No!"
Li Yanze raised his hands and smiled mockingly.
"I believe it, I believe it."
The next day, Li Yanze went to the military district for a meeting. After the meeting, only a few of them were left. Li Yanze hesitated for a moment and asked Guan Lerong in a low voice.
"If a child falls in love prematurely, what should parents do?"
Guan Lerong exclaimed. "That makes sense. No wonder he suddenly rebelled."
Tang Funian also joined in the fun and offered some advice. "You can't go against him. If you do, he will get even more angry."
Guan Lerong sighed: "Ruo Sen has never been in love before, so it's useless to ask me this time. But what Lao Tang said makes sense."
"It's always right to show more care and companionship."
Guan Ruoshen looked at them and suddenly sneered. The three of them looked at her with clear and stupid eyes.
"What are you laughing at?"
Guan Ruoshen replied with a cold face: "I love to laugh by nature."
After saying that, she turned around to leave, but then she remembered something, took a step back, looked at Li Yanze, and said something without beginning or ending.
"I advise you to stop teasing He Yan, otherwise, be careful when you sleep at night."
