When Ling Shuai saw this, instead of stopping Huo Beimo, he held down Lu Xingyu's hand.

"Let him drink."

With him as a doctor present, Huo Beimo couldn't drink to death.

Lu Xingyu and others looked at each other.

Lao Huo took the initiative to ask them to come home, which was indeed not easy.

"Old Ling, what's going on?" Yin Shaokang asked in a low voice.

"He needs to understand his own heart." Ling Shuai leisurely enjoyed the food and wine by himself.

After Huo Beimo drank two large glasses of white wine, the world seemed to float. Wen Jiu's smiling, lost, or graceful looks took turns playing out in his mind. He stretched out his hand to grab it, but the shadow in front of him shattered into pieces.

"Wen Jiu... Wen Jiu..."

Huo Beimo lay on the table, murmuring Wen Jiu's name.

Everyone present was stunned.

In fact, everyone had long known that Huo Beimo was attracted to Wen Jiu, but no one expected that such a lonely person as Huo Beimo would actually fall in love.

Although everyone was sitting and accompanying each other, they looked at each other and remained silent.

When Huo Beimo reached out again to pour liquor, this time, Ling Shuai personally held his hand.

"You guys chat, I'll help him go in and rest."

Ling Shuai said, stood up and helped Huo Beimo, who was completely drunk.

"Let go...I'm not drunk."

"I didn't say you were drunk, I just said you couldn't drink anymore."

Two large glasses of white wine are simply fatal to a person who doesn't have the capacity to drink.

Ling Shuai supported Huo Beimo's arm and entered the hall, but when Huo Beimo passed by the sofa, he slumped down on the sofa and refused to go upstairs, unwilling to return to the bedroom where the warmth still lingered.

He sat crookedly, his handsome face was red with the smell of alcohol, and even his breath was filled with fire.

Ling Shuai stood in front of him and looked at him. He let out a long sigh and opened his thin lips: "Old Huo, it was you who always advised me to be brave before, but what about you? Are you brave enough?"

"Where am I not brave? Do I want to live or die like you?" Huo Beimo raised his chin angrily, with a gloomy expression.

"You don't want to live or die, but you don't dare to love anyone except grandma. Aren't you a coward?"

"Love? Apart from grandma, is there anyone else in this world who deserves my love?" Huo Beimo sneered.

"That's why I said you are a coward. You don't even dare to admit or fight for falling in love with a woman. You are afraid of hurting yourself, but you don't care how hurt the woman you love is."

Ling Shuai clenched his hands tightly.

If he were Huo Beimo, he would hold Wen Jiu's hand tightly and never let her go.

How difficult it is to meet the one you love in such a vast world.

In his opinion, Hobeimer is quite lucky. At least the person he loves is bound to him, but what about him?

Falling in love with some people is only suitable for secretly hiding blessings, not for speaking out.

"Who do you think I love? Is it gentle? How is that possible?" Huo Beimo laughed.

"Think it over for yourself. As a brother, I don't want you to live with regrets for the rest of your life."

After Ling Shuai finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the courtyard.

Huo Beimo was the only one left in the huge living room, and his mind was filled with what Ling Shuai said.

Has he been in love with Wen Jiu?

No, it was impossible, he would not allow himself to fall in love with any woman.

The pain that had been buried in his past suddenly swept over him.

"Mom, don't go... don't go with the bad uncle, don't leave Xiao Mo behind."

That year, Huo Beimo was only 8 years old. She witnessed her mother and her lover having a tumultuous relationship. After her father arrived, the man climbed out of the window on the th floor. Her father was so excited that he also climbed out of the window after him, and fell to his death. .

Afterwards, my mother not only had no regrets, but chose to leave with the man.

No matter how much Ren Xiaobeimo tried to persuade her to stay, she still firmly pulled the suitcase and left without looking back.

"Xiao Mo, mom doesn't want to give up her own happiness in life because of you. You can live a good life with grandma. The Huo family has a great career. Mom believes that you will be happy in the future."

These were the last words Huo's mother left for Huo Beimo before she left.

From then on, parents and women became taboos in Huo Beimo's heart. No one dared to mention these two people in front of Huo Beimo, including Mrs. Huo, who was unwilling to mention them again.

My father has been humblely in love with his beautiful mother all his life. Unfortunately, even if he got her, he didn't get her heart, and he died in the end. It's really sad.

Huo Beimo swore that he would never follow his father's footsteps and fall in love with any woman.

Love is a weakness that can be manipulated by others.

The shadow left by his mother on his life made him hate women.

"dad……"

In the dream, 8-year-old Xiao Beimo screamed heartbreakingly.

Huo Beimo woke up suddenly and realized that he had slept on the sofa in the living room all night.

A childhood nightmare played out in my mind all night long.

He just felt cold all over, as if he hadn't had this nightmare for a long time.

That year, after his father passed away, he had the same dream every day. He dreamed that his father accidentally fell from the building. After that, he had a high fever that would not go away. He was ill for a long time before he recovered. On the surface, he seemed to be healthy, but in fact , the trauma in his heart remained forever.

Just like Ling Shuai said, he became a coward and lost the ability to love.

Except for Ling Shuai and his four childhood friends, he also has no ability to make friends.

In particular, he is afraid of and disgusted with marriage.

However, it was clear that Wen Jiu was right. Her leaving should be the outcome he expected. Why was he so sad?

For the first time, he felt like he couldn't control his mood.

Huo Beimo patted his head with a splitting headache, stood up, and walked upstairs with heavy steps.

When he came to the bedroom door, he held the doorknob in his hand, but he did not push the door in. Instead, he stood in front of the door and hesitated for a while before pushing open the empty bedroom door.

The skin care products and jewelry she used were also placed on the dressing table in the bedroom. Although he bought these things, in Huo Beimo's eyes, they were already Wen Jiu's personal belongings.

It was only the first day she left and he started to miss her.

Ling Shuai's words echoed in his mind again.

[Coward, I don’t want you to live in regret for the rest of your life as a brother. 】

Has he really fallen in love with Wen Jiu?

Just imagine, if Wen Jiu takes his baby to live with another man, would he be willing?

No, how could he accept it?

Huo Beimo's fists were clenched, and the veins on both sides of his temples were throbbing with anger.

-

Wen Jiu lived in a house rented by Wen Nanzhi, in an old community opposite Beidu Mingcheng. In the past, Wen Jiu also rented in this community. It was also a prosperous area in the capital, but the quality and price of the community were very different. Different places.

However, with two bedrooms and one living room, even if Wen Nanzhi is discharged from the hospital, it will be enough for the two siblings to live together.

After Wen Jiu calmed down for a night, he gradually forced himself to regain his sense.

In the past twenty years, she has been self-reliant and self-loving, and she will continue to be self-reliant in the future.

It was her fault to look twice at the man she couldn't have.
