Xu Yan was sad and crying wrongfully. When she heard someone call her, her heart trembled. The first thing she thought of was, would it be a promise?

Instead of raising her head immediately, she quickly wiped the tears off her face and blinked hard before raising her head.

There was a black business car parked on the side of the road. She knew this car because she had sat once more than a month ago.

The person in the car who called her just now was Xiao Han.

In fact, Xu Yan is really disappointed to see that it is not a promise.

But then her heart filled with hope.

Because Xiao Han may be able to bring the news of promise, she wants to know where the promise is now, whether it's alive or... It's gone.

She wanted to know what had happened to the promise, and she wanted to find out.

Although she suspected that the promise might have done something illegal, in her heart, she was always unwilling to believe that the promise would do something illegal.

Because she knows that promise is an honest and kind person.

From small to large, he hated those who stole, robbed and did illegal activities to damage other people's families. He hated the bad guys above every time he watched police and bandit films.

Even if it's just TV, it's just fake, but he can even hate the actor.

A person's nature will not change with anything or time, at least the promise she knows and understands will not.

So she firmly believes that there must be some difficulties in making a promise.

"Get on the bus, I'll tell you something." Xiao Han hurried when he saw that she had been squatting on the ground.

Xu Yan returned to his senses and quickly stood up.

But probably because she stood up a little fierce, her head was dizzy, and for a moment, her brain was blank.

If the bodyguard from Xiao Han's car didn't hold her in time, she would fall to the ground.

"Thank you."

After Xu Yan stood still, he calmed down and walked towards the car.

The bodyguard kindly opened the door for her and she sat in.

After the car started, Xiao Han glanced at her sideways, "you look like this. I promise you will be distressed."

Xu Yan's face changed, and then he pulled the corners of his mouth awkwardly, "just suddenly stood up and felt dizzy."

Xiao Han didn't say anything. The next second he changed the topic, "do you have a class today?"

"Well, a morning's class."

"Take a leave of school for you."

Xu Yan pursed his lips and hesitated.

Xiao Han frowned and glanced at her, "it's not good to ask for leave?"

Xu Yan nodded. The school is very busy these days, and it's already this time. How can I ask for leave?

Xiao Han didn't talk to him again, but photographed the front seat. The bodyguard said, "I'll do it now." then he pushed the door open and went down.

Xu Yan knew that Xiao Han had asked her bodyguard to ask for leave from school. Although she didn't know how the man would ask for leave for her, she knew that such powerful people were very capable.

She thanked. Xiao Han didn't say anything. Just as he met last time, he leaned against the seat and closed his eyes.

Xu Yan was still very nervous, holding his bag in one hand and the breakfast he had just bought in the other.

Xiao Han didn't speak and didn't say where to go.

Until the car stopped and Xu Yan looked outside, he found that it was a porridge shop.

This porridge shop used to promise to eat secretly when she went to school with her.

At that time, there was no money, and my mother made breakfast in the morning, but people had a very strange psychology. They thought that the food bought outside was better than that made by my mother.

She likes sweet scented osmanthus porridge with glutinous rice and promises to like millet porridge.

He promised to bring her to eat once a week. The money is the pocket money he promised to save.

In fact, the pocket money she promised at that time was very little. It was only ten yuan a month. Because they ate and lived at home and didn't need to buy their own clothes, they basically didn't use pocket money.

But he promised that he could always save ten yuan a month without spending any money. Moreover, he also worked part-time as a tutor for other students and could earn some money. He was not willing to spend it. He always saved it, and then took her to eat porridge. He could also buy her headdress, rubber band, hairpin and ribbon that girls like.

This family's porridge is not cheap. A bowl of glutinous rice osmanthus porridge, a very small bowl, she has to eat two bowls every time, and then eat two steamed stuffed buns to be full.

A bowl of glutinous rice osmanthus porridge is five yuan, a steamed stuffed bun, one piece of meat and fifty cents of vegetable.

He promised to buy her two bowls of porridge and two meat buns every time.

Promises always say that she is too thin. When she grows up, she must be full and fat, or she won't be tall.

He promised himself that every time he would eat a bowl of millet porridge, a piece of fifty-one, and then he wouldn't eat anything.

Later, he promised to go to college and then work in southern province. He came back very few times.

Occasionally she would eat a bowl of porridge by herself, but she could no longer taste so sweet.

And it's been more than half a year. She hasn't come to eat.

When she came here again today, she couldn't help crying.

Xiao Han saw her cry. Without persuasion and comfort, he just handed her the carton.

Xu Yan took out a piece of paper and thanked him. After all, it's not good to always cry in front of an outsider. She wiped her tears and got out of the car.

The shopkeeper should know Xiao Han well and greet him warmly.

Seeing him, the shopkeeper smiled. In fact, they also knew each other. After all, they have been mixed up for so many years, even if they are mixed up.

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged woman in her fifties. She is very kind.

She looked at Xu Yan with a smile and said, "you girl, I remember you. Haven't you been here for more than half a year? And your brother hasn't been here for a long time. Is it still glutinous rice osmanthus porridge and pickled meat bag?"

Xu Yan wanted to say that she bought breakfast, but finally thought about it and nodded, but she asked for a small rice porridge.

The shopkeeper didn't ask Xiao Han. He probably knew what he wanted to eat.

Before long, their breakfast was served.

Xiao Han's is a bowl of millet porridge and two small steamed stuffed buns.

Such a big man eats so little.

Xu Yan looked at the two bowls of sweet scented osmanthus glutinous rice porridge, one bowl of millet porridge and two pickled meat bags in front of her. She was a little embarrassed.

At this time, I heard the store owner say, "your brother really hurts you. He makes you full every time. He drinks a bowl of millet porridge. That's a good child. Now it's time to get married. You should be twenty-eight or seventy-eight."

Xu Yan smiled and nodded. Yes, no one in the world can be better than promise to treat her.

Xu Yan ate breakfast slowly. She was afraid she would vomit again.

But she didn't vomit again. She ate all the things in front of her, three bowls of porridge and two meat buns. She was very full. After eating, she used to look at the seat next to her, as she had promised to sit all the time on her right hand.

However, now this position is empty.

The originally sad mood was temporarily relieved because of this full meal, but at this time, those tumbling emotions drowned her again.

Her eyes were red, but she bit her lips tightly and didn't make herself cry.

……

After breakfast, Xiao Han settled his account and left the porridge shop with Xu Yan.

Xu Yan's mood hasn't eased yet, and the whole person's state is very low.

Xiao Han didn't ask her if she had anything to do, but ordered the driver to drive.

Finally, Xu Yan and Xiao Han sat down in a park.

Xiao Han handed Xu Yan a kraft paper bag, but Xu Yan didn't open it.

She pursed her lips and looked down at the diamond ring on the ring finger of her left hand. The weather was bad, so the light of the diamond ring was dim.

Without looking up, she said to Xiao Han, "Mr. Xiao, just tell me the promised news. I don't want to see it or go in."

Xiao Han took out a cigarette from his pocket, but glanced at her again and asked, "do you mind?"

Xu Yan was slightly stunned. He looked up at him and found out what he was asking.

She quickly shook her head. "It doesn't matter. She promised to smoke sometimes."

Xu Yan had never seen him smoke before he promised to go to college.

But later, when she worked and promised to come back occasionally, or when she went to find her promise, she noticed that he smoked.

In fact, she doesn't like to smell smoke and promise to smoke, but she also knows that men smoking is a way to relieve stress.

Although she doesn't know what the specific work of the promise is, she knows that the promise is very hard and stressful.

She went there during the summer vacation of her junior year. Every morning she made his bed and had a lot of hair on his pillow.

At that time, the promised hair fell very badly. She was worried that he would be bald so young.

She checked many methods on the Internet, promised tonic and massage, and went to the drugstore to buy shampoo and massage comb to prevent hair loss. Anyway, she tried everything.

At that time, she knew that smoking was harmful to the promise, but at least it could relieve stress. She told the promise to smoke less, and the promise also promised her that it would not exceed three cigarettes a day.

But at home, he promised never to smoke, because he knew that she didn't like the smell of smoke.

Xiao Han didn't say anything. He took out his lighter. With a "Da" sound, the flame rushed out. He lit a cigarette, but he smoked it very fiercely.

After a few puffs, there was less than half a cigarette left.

This is Xu Yan's first time to see such a way of smoking. She thought that when she was in a bad mood and under great pressure, it might be the same?

She can always see the shadow of promise in anyone.

A cigarette was almost finished. Xiao Han said, "something happened to the promise. I saw him yesterday."

Xu Yan pursed his mouth and didn't answer. She tightly clutched the bag on her knee and the kraft paper bag just handed to her by Xiao Han.

Her heart pounded violently.

It was clearly expected, but at this moment, she was afraid to know where the promise was now and what happened.

However, at the same time, she was also a little happy. At least, as of yesterday, the promise was still alive.

"He promised to go to the police school before and was expelled from the school. He was selected by the police and placed as an undercover in a criminal gang." Xiao Han said calmly.

Undercover?

When Xu Yan raised her lips, she knew that her promise was an honest, kind and brave man who would not do anything illegal.

When he was expelled from the police school, his parents were very angry. His father was seriously ill for this. He didn't explain, but she knew that he must have his own difficulties, but he couldn't tell his family.

She clearly remembered that on the day she promised to leave home for southern province, she took him to the railway station.

He was in a low mood that day and never spoke. When he got on the train, he said to her, "Yan, do you believe my brother is a good man?"

At that time, she was only sad because he left and separated from him, and didn't notice his difference.

She cried in his arms and said that whether he was a good man or a bad man, she was his brother.

In fact, looking back now, he didn't want her to answer like that at that time. Because he had a mission, he couldn't tell her the truth, but he wanted to tell her that no matter what he did in the future, he would never forget his original intention and be a good man.

Yes, he is an undercover. The undercover of the police in the opposition group is great and amazing.

No wonder he has been working so hard. Although she doesn't know what undercover does or what the criminal group does, she has watched TV and police and bandit films. She knows that undercover people are like licking blood on the edge of a knife and live a fearful life every day.

It has been more than 12 years since he promised to be expelled from the police academy. He has been worried for 12 years. How can he be without pressure?

Promise, you are good. Before, you were an example in my heart, my faith and my pursuit. Now, you are still my hero.

Xiao Han continued: "after he entered the group, he has been working at the bottom. In the past 12 years, he has become the director of the Sales Department of the group from a salesperson who runs sales. In the whole group, he should be the most powerful person in addition to the boss Lei Hong and Lei Hong's two brothers. Lei Hong trusts him very much."

Xu Yan pursed his lips, and a proud smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. She knew that her promise, her man and her husband were the best.

No matter what he does, he can do the best.

"After promising to leave the police academy, all his information was cleared from the police database. First, for his safety. Second, because the group is a cancer, many undercover agents have been sacrificed over the years. This time, in order to get rid of this cancer, they must be foolproof. Only an old retired undercover kept a single line contact with promising You should know someone, too. "

When Xiao Han talked about this old retired undercover, a man jumped out of Xu Yan's mind.

That year was the beginning of Xu Yan's University. She took thousands of yuan of tuition fees to report for duty. When she paid the fees at the payment office, she found that her money had been stolen.

At that time, thousands of yuan was already a large amount of expenditure for the family. He promised that he would hardly go home since he worked. These tuition fees were promised to be sent home one week before school. At that time, his father was in poor health and had just had an operation. This money was really important.

She didn't report for duty that day and didn't dare to go home. She hid in an empty corner of the campus and cried into tears.

I don't know how long later, a voice sounded over her head. She looked up and found that it was a middle-aged man.

From dressing up, I should be a school teacher.

After asking about Xu Yan, without saying a word, he took out a bank card from his pocket and gave it to her. He also wrote her a password and asked her to pay her tuition.

When she refused again and again, he was angry and said that all the money was lent to her and that she would pay him back when she had money in the future.

She finally accepted his help, collected his money, paid his tuition, then gave him an IOU and returned his bank card.

But he gave her another 1000 yuan, saying it was the cost of living,.

Later, she knew that this man was really a teacher of Yunda. His name was Lu Wenbo, who taught sports.

Because of this, Lu Wenbo knew her. He took good care of her. Sometimes when he took private work outside, he would ask her to help and give her some money.

So in less than a semester, she saved enough five thousand yuan to pay him back.

But in the following years, they always got along well, but last year, teacher Lu suddenly died of a stroke, and she attended his funeral.

The old man didn't have a wife or children in his life. He probably knew that he was in poor health. He made a will a few years ago. After his death, all his property belonged to Xu Yan.

Also after the old man died, Xu Yan packed up his belongings and found a note in a book, which was the handwriting of the promise. She was too familiar with the word of the promise.

It was only then that she knew that promise knew the old man.

It turned out that the meeting was not an accident.

……

Xiao Han lit another cigarette and began to smoke.

This time, he was silent for a long time before he spoke again. It was difficult to say what the Buddha would say next.

His lips moved and moved, and finally he just smoked again.

Until the end of the cigarette, Xiao Han threw away his cigarette butts. Only then did he turn his head and look at Xu Yan next to him.

She seemed to think of something happy. There was a faint smile on her quiet face, and her eyes were full of warmth.

In fact, as a man, he can see that the relationship between promise and promise is not simple, not just brother and sister.

Promise hasn't talked about a girlfriend yet. Last year he came back with a woman. They met. He introduced the woman to him and said it was his fiancee, but anyone with a clear eye can see that he was acting with the woman.

It's just, why act?

He didn't know why until he saw the promise with red eyes hiding in a corner at the engagement banquet between Xu Yan and Mr. Guo's son.

Xu Yan was twenty-seven years old last year. A woman, twenty-seven, is really not young, but she has never been in love or made a boyfriend. It's abnormal.

Even if promise and Xu Yan are happy, even if they are only nominal brothers and sisters without any blood relationship, ethics and morality are still a great obstacle and constraint in this society.

Not to mention how outsiders treat their brothers and sisters, their parents can never allow them to be together.

Therefore, separation is inevitable. Since it is inevitable, it is best to break it as soon as possible.

So he promised to play a play. He found a woman and said she was his fiancee, and then cheated Xu Yan.

Xu Yan also finally died to him, and then engaged her man Guo Peng.

There are thousands of kinds of love and lovers in the world, but he feels that the kind of promise and promise is the most tragic.

Because of this, he didn't know how to tell the woman what he promised and what he was in.

According to the promise, he didn't want her to know, but he felt that some things were better for her to know.

In fact, he had got all the information about the promise a week ago. After all, his third uncle worked in the public security organ.

He also saw the promise a week ago. The promise was too thin, very haggard, and his mental state was extremely poor. He was unwilling to say anything. Finally, he just begged him not to let Xu Yan and his parents know about him.

However, this week, he watched Xu Yan, a stubborn and strong woman standing in the street crying again and again. To be honest, he had never been soft hearted because of any woman crying, but this time he really couldn't bear it.

He felt that no matter what the result of the promise was, Xu Yan was entitled to know about it.

Because maybe only in this way can Xu Yan no longer have endless waiting and suffering in the day when he promises to leave.

So yesterday he went to see the promise again. He was even more haggard. He was as thin as a skin bag wrapped around a skeleton.

In fact, he did not believe that, as the information he received showed, the promise really failed to resist the temptation in the end.

He asked if the promise had any difficulties. If he needed help, he could help him.

But the promise was refused. He said he had no trouble. He just felt sorry for his parents and Xu Yan.

Promise still insisted on not telling Xu Yan about it, but he didn't listen to him this time, because as a businessman, his sensitive sense of smell told him that promise hid things from him. He was helpless. In this helplessness, he chose compromise and bowed his head.

He would rather die than fight for himself.

In fact, he doesn't understand why?

He didn't know until he got a message last night that he had promised to turn himself in this time. Before turning himself in, he went to Xiao's Hospital and had a physical examination under a false name. He was ill.

Although cancer is not terrible in such a developed era of modern medicine, it is also based on early and medium-term treatment.

He has bone cancer and is in advanced stage.

The doctor gave the result that he would not live for three months.

It has been more than two months since he turned himself in. No wonder he is so haggard.

He thought that perhaps it was because he was ill that he gave up fighting and gave up the hope of survival.

In this life, people always have to experience one thing or another, but they can't escape death after all.

Xiao Han didn't sleep all night last night.

He shut himself in and smoked all night.

He still decided to let Xu Yan see the last side of the promise. People always have to face separation and death.

He thought he came to Xu Yan today and was ready to tell her everything, but when he really faced the woman, he found that he was far from as calm as he thought.

Looking at the girl around him, he was only 27 years old, but he put the Buddha on her face and saw something more vicissitudes than he had lived for more than 30 years.

His heart was really shocked, pumping pain, very uncomfortable.

He really couldn't imagine what would happen to Xu Yan if she knew about the promise and knew that she would be shot in secret three days later?

After life and death, Xiao Han lived for more than 30 years. He has experienced all these, so he knows how painful it is, how unbearable it is, and how unbearable it is. He doesn't even have the courage to live.

He was really afraid. If Xu Yan couldn't think of it, what would she do if she died because of her promise?

If so, he will destroy not only a person, but also a family.

The loss of children at the same time will be a painful and heavy blow to the two old people of the Xu family.

However, if you don't tell Xu Yan and let her know the truth, something will happen to her sooner or later.

After a long silence, Xiao Han finally opened his mouth and said: "Promise has mastered a lot of information about the criminal group over the years. The previous information has been sent out through the old undercover, but then the old undercover suddenly died of illness. Promise's only contact was disconnected, and the superior has not sent anyone to contact him. He probably waited in a hurry and took a risk to find the police."

After a pause, he looked at Xu Yan. She had put away her smile and probably guessed what might happen next.

"I don't know what's wrong. Lei Hong and his men were caught and promised to escape. He's been hiding for months. He turned himself in two months ago."

Xu Yan tightly pursed his lips two months ago.

Their meeting that day was the last one. No wonder she felt that those notes were written in advance. It turned out that she felt right.

And the phone that day suddenly hung up. She couldn't get through when she called again.

In fact, she should have thought of this, but she was always reluctant to admit it.

Xiao Han sipped his lips and lit a cigarette again. In fact, he has been addicted to smoking all these years, but he is not very big.

But in recent days, he smoked a little too much.

Through the thin smoke, he looked at Xu Yan's pale face, and his heart could not tell the taste.

Xu Yan never said a word. He didn't know what she thought at this time, because she didn't show any difference physically except for her ugly face.

Even the previous tension disappeared at this time. Such a reaction really puzzled him.

I don't know how long it took, about five minutes or ten minutes.

When Xiao Han's cigarette had burned out and was going to smoke another one, Xu Yan finally moved his lips and was ready to make a sound.

However, when she was ready to speak, she seemed to hesitate again, remembered something, and looked up into the distance.

After about two minutes of silence, she really said, "Mr. Xiao, can you describe to me what the promise is like now?"

Xiao Han caught the cigarette's fingers and shook slightly. The cigarette almost fell.

He didn't expect that after brewing for so long, she said such a thing.

He understood what she meant. She wasn't going to see the promise.

Or, she also knew that she promised not to see her.

But he said, "I can take you to see him for the last time."

Xu Yan didn't speak, but he didn't refuse.

……

Xiao Han drove himself and took Xu Yan to the prison in the suburbs. He made an appointment in advance, because even if Xu Yan refused to meet today, he would promise to meet again for the last time.

The car stopped outside the prison. Xu Yan looked up at the high iron door. She really couldn't imagine that such a door separated her from her promise.

She doesn't believe that the promise will do things that are sorry for the country and her conscience.

However, she couldn't understand why he turned himself in since he promised not to do anything wrong.

She thought selfishly that after he came to her that day, why didn't he leave, go abroad and never come back? At least he was still alive. At least she knew there was a promise in the world.

But he didn't. He chose to turn himself in. No matter what he thought, she felt unforgivable.

He gave up his life, he didn't want her, he didn't want his parents, he didn't want the family.

She was angry. She didn't want to see him.

However, she really wanted to be closer and closer to him.

That's why she came here with Xiao Han today, but she won't see the promise, she won't.

"I'll go to see him first," said Xiao Han.

Xu Yan nodded politely and watched Xiao Han get off the bus and walk into the two high doors.

The heavy door is deeply locked. What is locked is not only freedom, but also one life and two hearts.

Promise, you owe me, a wedding, a marriage, the white heads of your life will not be separated.

So you have to give it back to me sooner or later, you know?

……

Xiao Han enters the interview room. Because the promise is a felony, the interview is only through the thick bulletproof glass, and his hands and feet are handcuffed by heavy chains.

I just saw him yesterday. Up to now, 24 of them have not disappeared, but Xiao Han found that he is thinner and haggard than yesterday.

His eyes were deeply sunken, and his cheekbones were raised very high, which looked ferocious and distressing.

Seeing Xiao Han, he promised to try to pull out a smile, but he couldn't laugh. On the contrary, he twisted his face.

Xiao Han picked up the phone in front of him, but he didn't pick it up.

He looked at the door behind Xiao Han and looked for a long time until two lines of tears came out of his eyes. His sight became blurred and he couldn't see anything. Then he slowly sat down in his chair.

He still didn't pick up the phone, but covered his face and choked.

Xiao Han could not hear his voice, but he could clearly see his trembling hands and trembling body.

After crying for almost five minutes, he promised to shake his hands and wipe away his tears. Then with red eyes, he slowly picked up the phone in front of him.

He said, "Xiao Han, can you please take care of my parents if you can? I know you will, even if I don't say it, but I still want to hear your personal promise."

Xiao Han tightly pursed his lips and red the bottom of his eyes.

After a long time, he nodded, "I will."

"Thank you." the promise hooked his lower lip and then said, "don't tell my family. Don't let them know I'm here. I don't want them to be ashamed of me. I'm a sinner... Please don't tell them, okay?"

Xiao Han didn't nod this time. How could he promise him?

Xu Yan is in the car outside the door. Even if he doesn't say it now, she will know sooner or later.

"Promise, have you ever thought that promise will wait for you until you get old and... Die. You can't be so selfish."

Promise bit his cracked lips tightly and didn't make a sound for a long time.

After a while, he opened his mouth and made a voice from his throat, "I..."

Then there was no sound. All the voices of the Buddha were blocked in his throat at this moment, and could not be sent out.

Xiao Han looked at him and finally opened his mouth: "she's right outside the door. Do you want to see her for the last time?"

Promise suddenly looked up at him. His eyes were full of panic. He didn't even want to shake his head, "no!"

How can he see her like this?

How could he let her see him in such a mess? Absolutely not!

From small to large, in her heart, he has always been so excellent. She always said, brother, you are my idol and my example. You are the best and most powerful.

A few days ago, he was allowed to call home. He called her and she said, promise, you are my hero.

But now the hero has become a prisoner, and will be shot in three days. Where is he still a hero?

He was selfish enough. Knowing that he would not live long, he couldn't help asking her, giving her hope and hope, but also giving her the most painful injury. He couldn't destroy the perfection in her heart and the hero in her heart.

Absolutely not!

Tears once again, like a surging flood, washed the promise's pale face.

The pair of eyes that had no light for a long time stared at Xiao Han. He said, "please, don't..."

He scraped off the phone, turned hastily and called the prison guard to take him away.

But because he was in a panic, he fell to the ground. He struggled hard, but he couldn't stand up.

He crawled hard on the ground, like a struggling fish washed ashore by the sea, wriggling. Finally, he was picked up by two prison guards and left the visiting room.

Xiao Han finally couldn't help it. Something bright fell from his eyes.

He slowly put down the phone in his hand, sat without moving, but looked up at the ceiling. The taste in his heart was like overturning the seasoning. There were all kinds of flavors.

He understands the stubbornness of promises and the persistence of promises.

These two people were both teased and hurt by fate.

There are too many unfairness in the world. Before, he felt that everything he suffered was unfair. Today, he knows that his unfairness is so small and insignificant in front of promises and promises.

What is fairness in the world? What is unfair?

Xiao Han stood up slowly, raised his feet like a kilogram, and walked slowly towards the door. When he reached the door, he turned around and looked at the place where the promise disappeared. He was distracted for a long time.

For a long time, he moved his lips and muttered to himself, "promise, if you can start your life again, how would you choose?"
