from my heart [last days]

The day when the meteorite from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River entered Beijing was Qingming, the weather was cool, and it rained a little.

Except for the one in the South China Sea that is really not easy to salvage, this will be the last meteorite to be recovered. Once it enters the signal shielding room, it means that the communication in the mainland will be completely restored.

On the road to fighting the virus, this day is of great significance and is enough to be recorded in the annals of human civilization. Therefore, the number of people who came to welcome it was also unusually large, and several research institutes sent representatives to come.

Xie Congxin stood waiting on the main road in the suburbs of Beijing, and Pei Ze stood behind him holding an umbrella for him.The rain wasn't heavy at all, but it was caught in some strong winds, and some of it swept over his face, making it numb. Xie Congxin squinted his eyes.

Pei Ze lowered the umbrella a little to cover his face.

Xie Congxin glanced back at him and said, "I'll hold it up by myself, and you can get another umbrella."

Pei Ze didn't hand him the umbrella, but said, "The wind is too strong."

It was indeed very strong, and the wind direction was too chaotic. He wanted to block the rain in front of Xie Congxin, but his back was gradually wet by the slanting wind and drizzle, seeping into Chun Ri's thin clothes.

Xie Congxin naturally saw the dark color on his shoulders, so he said that.

"A little rain, it's okay." Pei Ze said and moved closer to him. The distance between them was less than an inch. The cold winter days earlier, or the chilly spring season, were just right.

They stood at the end of the crowd, but no one noticed.

Xie Congxin relaxed his spine and half leaned against his chest, his back warmed up a bit, looking at Su Shiqing who was talking with Mr. Liu in a low voice, he said, "I'm a little tired."

I received a short-wave communication yesterday, saying that the meteorite could arrive in Beijing today, so I got up early and stood here waiting for more than an hour.

Pei Ze said, "Go to the car?"

Xie Congxin smiled, "The teachers are all standing."

The old people who are several rounds older than him are still standing, he is naturally not so pretentious that he needs to sit in the car and wait, Pei Ze didn't say any more, just raised his hand to support his waist, and shared the burden for him. Gained a little strength to stand up.

Xie Congxin turned around and teased him: "Captain Pei, do you spoil me too much?"

There was a little smile in Pei Ze's eyes, he turned his hand holding the umbrella to block it, lowered his head and kissed Xie Congxin's hair lightly, and said, "It's not enough."

If someone turns around at this time, they will find that the two people standing in the rain are such a good match, even if they cannot hear the conversation, they can still see a lot of tenderness from the bottom of their eyes.

It's a pity that with Pei Ze's keenness, this tiny moment was not noticed by any outsiders.

After another half an hour, the green-skinned armored vehicle finally slowly came into view. Xie Congxin heaved a sigh of relief, and walked forward to meet Su Shiqing.

Three cars stopped not far in front of them one after another. A team of armed police got off the front car, all of them armed with guns. The captain reported to the former Deputy Minister of National Security who replaced Kun Yuanpeng, and saw that the car behind him was wearing a white coat. The assistant jumped down first and handed his hand to the old man behind him.

It was Professor Wen, an old acquaintance in Chongcheng.

"Old news!" Liu Jing and Su Shiqing went forward to greet each other, and hugged each other with their old friends who were similar in age.

Even the top minds in the country could hardly restrain their emotions when they reunited with their old friends after the natural disaster and showed great joy.

Xie Congxin stood where he was, patiently waiting for them to calm down, but the young assistant who got off Professor Fuwen's car saw him first, and came up to say hello with a bitter face: "Academician Xie, long time no see."

Xie Congxin raised his eyebrows slightly, and recognized that face, it was the assistant who was deceived by him in Chongcheng.

"Hello." Xie Congxin nodded calmly and politely.

"It's nice of you," the assistant said with a dumbfounding expression on his face, "You walked away so gracefully, I was scolded to death by Commander Xu and the professor."

Xie Congxin didn't mean the slightest bit of guilt, he just smiled and said nothing, the assistant didn't really come to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, but he still had to thank Xie Congxin, otherwise he wouldn't have had the opportunity to come to Beijing to see the world——

The news that Xie Congxin was carrying virus antibodies had already spread to Chongcheng through the meteorite recovery team. Professor Wen was overly excited and insisted on going to Beijing with the car regardless of his age. The assistant brought him along.

Nowadays, Beijing is full of talents. If you can get a name in the vaccine production team, you will have a bright future. The assistant naturally has his own thoughts, and he specially stepped forward to mention the past with Xie Congxin, just hoping to get acquainted.

It's a pity that Xie Congxin's attitude was tepid, as if he didn't recognize him, the assistant had no choice but to give up, and consciously backed away.

At this moment, the third car drove away, and there were many people around, Xie Congxin didn't pay attention, but Pei Ze first saw the figure getting out of the car.

That man was also wearing a white coat, his hair was combed back, he was not short, and his face was not bad, he looked about the same age as Xie Congxin.

It was Xie Yiming.

Xie Congxin didn't see him, Pei Ze was about to put his umbrella down to cover him, when Professor Wen over there had noticed Xie Congxin, he passed Su Shiqing and came over to greet him, Xie Congxin treated his assistant casually, and always respected his seniors, so he called out A 'smell the teacher'.

Professor Wen is much smarter than his assistant. He didn't mention the matter of Chongcheng and Antibody. He just smiled and said, "If I knew this road would be so difficult and dangerous, I should have asked Commander Xu to send more people to protect you. Fortunately, you arrived in Beijing safely, otherwise I have a really bad conscience.”

Xie Congxin would not lose anything if he mentioned some things, but he was afraid that there would be troubles in Chongcheng. Xie Congxin didn't want to worry about it, so he pretended that nothing happened, and said humbly, "I'm worrying you."

Professor Wen turned to look at Pei Ze again, "It's also thanks to Captain Pei."

Pei Ze was used to being indifferent to outsiders, and since Xie Yiming had already walked over, he only nodded to Professor Wen, and then stood calmly in front of Xie Congxin.

Xie Congxin was half blocked by him, and looked at him in surprise, and then heard Xie Yiming on the other end shout loudly: "Academician Xie!"

"..." The corner of Xie Congxin's mouth twitched visibly.

"Academician Xie!" Xie Yiming broke through the crowd and squeezed in front of Xie Congxin, his face flushed with excitement, "I finally see you!"

He wanted to shake Xie Congxin's hand, but Pei Ze stood in front of him, and Xie Congxin didn't intend to extend his hand. He could only brake, but his eyes still couldn't let go of Xie Congxin, fanatic like a pious believer.

It was mentioned in the contact that Professor Wen would come, but Xie Yiming also came along, which was really unexpected.Xie Congxin raised one corner of his lips, showing a long-lost, half-smile expression: "Student Xie is here too."

"I miss you so much!" After not seeing you for more than half a year, Xie Yiming said in front of many people, "How could you leave without saying goodbye? I waited for you in the hotel that night... "

Xie Congxin chuckled mockingly as soon as the words came out, Professor Wen showed embarrassment, Su Shiqing and others looked at him questioningly, and Pei Ze squinted his eyes, apparently capturing the sensitive words.

"Let's talk about it when we go back." Xie Congxin had recovered, and said with that smile, "It's raining heavily."

The group returned to the research institute. Professor Wen made good friends with Su Shiqing and Liu Jing. This trip to Beijing brought all the research progress in the southwest region. There are 20 people in the group, all of whom are outstanding in the industry. They have all joined the Institute of Microbiology for the time being. research team.

"Liu Jing and the others are following up on the matter of the joint research institute," Su Shiqing explained when he took Professor Wen on a tour of the research institute, "In two months, it should be completed."

Professor Wen nodded: "This is very important."

"We will have the best research environment by then," Su Shiqing said, "Several teams to the United States and Europe should have arrived, and we will hear back soon. They brought blood samples from Congxin when they set off."

Professor Wen laughed and said, "I was really surprised when I found out that Congxin had antibodies..."

On the other side, another hotel has been packed up near the research institute, and the Chongcheng team has been arranged to stay. Xie Congxin's assistant is responsible for allocating rooms for everyone. Xie Yiming asked him excitedly: "Which floor does Academician Xie live on?"

The assistant shook his head, thanking the academician for not living here, but on another street.

Xie Yiming was very disappointed, but he didn't give up. After the assistant finished distributing the room card, he secretly took off the watch plug in his hand and asked him, "Are you living with Academician Xie? Can you change the room with me?"

The assistant had seen a little bit of the world, and knew that before the end of the world, such a watch was worth a year's income of an ordinary person. He came from an ordinary family, and even earning a lifetime of scientific research salary might not be able to afford such a watch, so he hesitated for a few seconds and agreed.

Xie Yiming planned well, and his assistant found out when Xie Congxin would return to the hotel, and sat in the hotel lobby waiting, holding a gift from Chongcheng, carefully selected, hoping that Xie Congxin would like it.

However, he thought that Xie Congxin's picky eyes meant he looked down on 99% of the world's people, so when Xie Congxin appeared at the hotel entrance with Pei Ze in his arms, he froze in place and almost forgot to react.

Xie Congxin didn't sleep, he leaned in Pei Ze's arms and closed his eyes to rest his mind. When he heard the voice, he opened his eyes and glanced at Xie Yiming, then raised his eyebrows and looked up at Pei Ze. There was no surprise on Pei Ze's face, as if Xie Yiming was a transparent person. They didn't stop.

Xie Congxin woke up from sleepiness, and asked Pei Ze in a low voice, "Do you know he's here?"

In fact, he slept in the office for half an hour at noon today, and he was in good spirits when he arrived at the hotel entrance. He planned to go upstairs by himself, but Pei Ze unfastened his seat belt and hugged him directly, so he let him I went without thinking too much.

"I know, Yin Shang sent a message." Pei Ze carried him to the elevator, and Xie Congxin reached out and pressed the up button cooperatively.

Xie Congxin put her head back on his shoulder with some amusement, "On purpose?"

Pei Ze curled his lips and said, "Well, you are mine."

This sentence did not deliberately lower the volume, and it was not serious, Xie Congxin was sure that Xie Yiming heard it, and his expression would not be too good-looking.

Neither he nor Pei Ze looked back. The elevator came quickly. After entering, Xie Congxin pressed the door close button. Pei Ze leaned against the side wall. He: "Captain Pei, do you have anything to ask me?"

"No." Pei Ze raised his head and kissed him on the lips.He was possessive of Xie Congxin, and wanted Xie Yiming to retreat despite difficulties, but he trusted Xie Congxin unconditionally, without any doubts that needed to be asked.

"—But I have." Xie Congxin raised the corners of his lips and said, "Captain Pei is very handsome when he looks serious and jealous, I like it very much, so you can ask questions, or do something, it doesn't matter if you are fierce, I will be happy .”

"..."

Pei Ze chose the latter.
