"Hello everyone, it's 7 a.m. sharp right now. I am Changan Television Station's reporter Yao Hong. I will now be the one to pay my respects to all of you for reporting on the funeral of Mayor Fang and his husband. Mayor of Fanglan was born on March 25, 1958, in Chang'an. Graduated from Z State University of Political Science and Law in July 1981, he returned to Changan in the same year to work in government and join the Party. February 1985 Director of the Office of the Municipal Fiscal Bureau. In March 1986, he left the country for further education. In March 1988, he returned to his country and in August of the same year, he became the Deputy Director of the city's finance bureau. He was assigned to the office of the administration bureau, the organizational personnel department, the treasury department, the administrative law department, the cadre department, the city financial information centre and the municipal treasury payment center. He was appointed Director of the Municipal Personnel Bureau in June 1992. In July 1999, he served as deputy mayor of Changan City and oversaw the economic construction of the city. On 20 January 2008, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress was elected as the mayor of Changan by an absolute margin. On the evening of January 29, 2008, at 11.25 p.m., Mayor Fang Lan and his husband, Mr. Tang Zhengguo, a well-known Changan entrepreneur, were killed driving home. Mayor Fang Lan was 50 years old. Although Mayor Fang Lan only served as mayor for 9 days, she worked diligently to serve the people for more than 20 years. Everyone can see that behind me, these people who came to see Mayor Fang off in the rain are the best proof. Mr. Tang Zhengguo was born on June 14, 1955 … "

Listening to the voice that came from the television, a dull sound rang in Tang Feng's mind. The dumbbell in his hand dropped to the ground, and the floor tiles were smashed into pieces.

Tang Feng rushed to the front of the television to look at the picture of his parents rolling in front of him.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Wang Sheng was shocked by Tang Feng's actions and immediately asked.

Tang Feng resisted the pain in his heart and said to Wang Sheng: "I have something to take care of." Then, without even changing his clothes, he grabbed the car keys on the table and ran out.

On the road, Tang Feng was driving as he crazily stepped on the gas pedal, tears flowing down his face. According to the address he saw on the television just now, Tang Feng came to the memorial hall, which was already surrounded by people. In their hearts, Mayor Fang was a rare good official. On the night of her accident, she was the one who went to visit a lonely old man, and originally there were many people who went with her. However, seeing that the elderly were in a mess, Mayor Fang let his colleagues leave first. However, he stayed behind to help the old man clean up. When she helped the old man clean up, it was already late at night, and only then did Mayor Fang call her husband to come and pick her up.

Tang Feng squeezed forward with tears in his eyes. He wanted to go in, he wanted to see his parents!

Along the way, he heard the praises of his mother coming from the mouths of the citizens, and the regretful voices, making Tang Feng's heart feel even worse. After squeezed to the door with much difficulty, Tang Feng took a deep breath and prepared to enter.

"I'm sorry, sir, but you can't go in." Seeing that Tang Feng was about to enter, the security guard immediately extended his hand to stop him.

"Why?" Tang Feng looked at him coldly.

"As there are too many citizens, the scene might be too chaotic, so Mayor Fang's family decided that other than the city leaders, no one else was allowed to enter!" The security guard said.

"Family?" Tang Feng frowned. His parents were his only children, and his grandparents had already passed away. In this world, his parents only had one family member, so where did he get such a family member?

The security guard nodded his head: "Mayor Fang does not have any close relatives, the funeral is handled by her foster son Ding Lei."

Tang Feng's mind rumbled, Ding Lei? How laughable that, as his only kin, he was unable to see his parents once in a while and instead allowed others to show respect and filial piety for him! Tang Feng really wanted to cry. He had let his parents down, and he knew that his own matters must have made his parents very sad. His son was too incompetent. The biggest mistake his parents made in their lives was to have such an unfilial son like him!

Tang Feng's eyes were filled with tears and he practically begged: "Let me in, I'm just looking, just a glance will do."

The security guard was in a difficult position, but seeing Tang Feng's appearance, he could not bear to reject him. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then wait for a while, I'll go ask for you, if Mr. Ding does not agree, then there's nothing I can do."

Tang Feng nodded his head, his eyes never leaving the photo hanging on the wall of the room.

Not long later, the security guard brought a man to the door. The security guard pointed at Tang Feng and said to the man: "It's him."

Tang Feng shifted his gaze onto Ding Lei's face. After so many years, he still remained the same, he was still as handsome and handsome as before, but he was clearly more mature than before.

"Why do you have to go in? You know my godfather and godmother? " Ding Lei stared at Tang Feng, he felt that this person was extremely familiar, but how could he be familiar with him?

Nodding his head, Tang Feng said: "Let me in to take a look, I only want to see them one last time."

When Ding Lei saw the tears and grief in Tang Feng's eyes, he knew that Tang Feng was not acting.

"Fine." Ding Lei agreed and turned to walk inside.

After Tang Feng entered, his eyes were still staring at his parents inside the ice coffin, but he couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes. He wanted to lie on the ground and cry, but he knew he couldn't do that.

He remembered the last time he saw his parents, they at least looked very young. At that time, he and his mother were more like a brother and sister than a mother, but in just a few years, his parents had aged so much. "Tang Feng knew that there must be a large part of his reason for this.

Seeing that the person who was staring at his godfather and godmother with such a sorrowful expression, Ding Lei felt that it was as if the person who was lying inside was his parents. He could not help but feel that it was a little strange.

After ten minutes, seeing that the man had not left, Ding Lei walked over and said: "Sir, you should be leaving."

Tang Feng slowly raised his head, looked at Ding Lei, and said lightly: "Thank you, they should be very happy to have a foster son like you." After saying that, Tang Feng walked out, and when he reached the door, he unwillingly turned to look.

Returning to the car, Tang Feng could no longer hold it in, he leaned on the steering wheel and wailed, "Dad, mom is sorry, son is unfilial, son is unfilial! I should have listened to you, I should have stayed by your side, but I gave you up for my dream. Why, why did you just leave? You are my last worries, you are the people that I rely on in my heart, even you don't want me anymore, what do I have left? "

Guan Zhiyong and Xu Qiang were awoken by the sound of a dumbbell hitting the ground. When they ran down, and saw Tang Feng driving away, Guan Zhiyong frowned and asked Wang Sheng, "Boss, what happened?"

Wang Sheng spread out his hands and laughed bitterly: "How would I know, it's fine even up front, but after hearing the news on TV, it's like I'm crazy."

Guan Zhiyong and Xu Qiang turned their heads to look at the television at the same time. When they saw the two familiar names on the television, their heads exploded! Being together with Tang Feng for such a long time, they naturally understood Tang Feng a little. At least they knew the names of Tang Feng's parents.

"When did this happen?" Guan Zhiyong pointed to the television screen.

Wang Sheng was startled, what happened to all of them today? The day before you guys came back, the day before yesterday, Changan's new mayor and her husband drove home in a car accident at night. "

Guan Zhiyong and Xu Qiang's hearts were beating rapidly. They did not know what to do, nor did they know what the general assembly would be like.

Wang Sheng saw that both of their faces were pale white, he frowned: Damn, what happened to you two? Stupid? Just what exactly is it that you're telling laozi, and you're treating me as a brother? "

Guan Zhiyong thought for a while, then said: "Left hand, wake Fei Fei up, and follow me to the study room with your right hand." He decided to tell Wang Sheng the truth. It didn't matter if he told him and Fei Fei since they both knew that Tang Feng was from Chang An, and telling them in advance would let them be prepared for their big boss in the future.

Once the sleepy Fei Fei entered, Guan Zhiyong said: "As long as the two of you know about this, you don't need to tell anyone else. You all know that our boss is from Changan, and I remember our boss told you that his parents have always been at Changan. Ever since we had our plastic surgery, the one who's feeling the worst is our boss, he's clearly at home and can't go see his parents. Right hand, aren't you curious about why we have such expressions? "Now let me tell you, that Mayor Fang and her husband are the parents of our boss!"

"What?" Wang Sheng and Fei Fei shouted at the same time.

Tang Feng sat on the carriage the whole time, silently watching from afar. One by one, the leaders went in and came out, and the number of people on the street also increased. Under the window, the cigarette butts that littered the floor were the results of his few hours of battle.

He could not cry anymore. Today, he had cried even more than before. Perhaps, his tears for the rest of his life had all dried up on this day. Now that he had calmed down a lot, thinking back to the warm scenes when he was still at home, his eyes were dry, but there were no tears left in them. His parents had left, leaving him nothing but endless grief and memories of the past. The scene of his parents lying in the ice coffin was something he would never forget. He had to bury all of this in his heart.

Right now, he was truly all alone, with only his brothers left. He thought of many things. He was afraid. Walking on this road would mean stepping into the morgue with one foot. If his brothers left him one day, would he be able to bear it?

This was the first time Tang Feng realized how weak he had been in the beginning. He wanted to change it, but he knew he couldn't.

The funeral ceremony continued until noon. Tang Feng followed closely behind with the car as his parents' bodies were sent to be cremated. On both sides of the street, the masses spontaneously formed into two rows to mourn the mayor of Chang'an, who had been in office for the shortest period of time.

Once he reached the place, Tang Feng would not be able to enter, so he could only park and wait. He wanted to know where his parents were buried. He wanted to talk to them.

When Tang Feng saw Ding Lei coming out with the bone ash urns in his hands, the muscles on his face twitched.

Following the convoy, Tang Feng arrived at the Ten Thousand Life Cemetery. Seeing that it was a good scenery that was close to the mountain and next to the water, Tang Feng's heart also felt a lot more at ease. Waiting was a form of torture, and these words were true. Finally, everyone left. Tang Feng took the cigarettes and flowers he bought earlier and walked over to his parents' grave.
