black under lights

Two days later, Xing Shihuai returned home on time at one o'clock in the afternoon, preparing for the evening banquet for work.And Tong Qing, after two days of depression, the warmth of the home and the atmosphere of joy that she hadn't had for a long time infected her, and it was rare for Tong Qing to dress up solemnly.Xing Shaofeng also called and said he would be there later.

Xing Mo's suit and leather shoes were all customized by Xing Shihuai a week in advance. The dark gray suit with light stripes, olive green silk velvet tie, and brown leather shoes set off Xing Mo as a gentleman.Only when those eyes swept across with a half-smile, one could get a glimpse of its sharper and rougher nature.

But when he looked at Tong Qing, like any happy mother, checking whether the vases were in order and whether the tableware was in order, the sharpness in his eyes softened.

He hadn't felt at home for so long that he almost forgot the feeling of home.

As it was getting late, the Xing family ushered in the first guest, a family friend of Xing Shihuai's brother, with his wife and children.But after a while, the big house was filled with people one after another.Good food is on the table now, good food and wine, entertaining friends.

In fact, Xing Shihuai did not invite many people.

Xing Mo is more private to them, and there is no need to announce it to the world with great fanfare like a dinner party.However, the visiting relatives and friends are all based on the family, at least there are thirty people, and the Xing family will soon be turned into a small banquet hall.

It was Xing Shaofeng who arrived last, half an hour late because of the mission, with red wine in his hand, and brought another person into the room after opening the door.

Because it was a private place, Li Xueying didn't wear a wig or colored chips.He glanced quickly across the crowd, lowered his head and did not speak.

"Aying?" Tong Qing pulled Li Xueying into the door, "I haven't been here for a long time, are you busy recently?"

Although Li Xueying rarely met with Xing Shihuai in private to reduce the risk of being notified by Feng Qing's eyes and ears, she had received Xing Shihuai's help during the downturn, and lived in Xing's house for a period of time.Tong Qing treated him kindly, and Li Xueying kept in mind Xing Shihuai's kindness to him when he was in crisis.Even when he finally decided to stay with Feng Qing, Xing Shihuai and Tong Qing respected his decision.The resentment and hatred of others will be met, and the degree of intervention is limited after all.As for Li Xueying, even though the contacts with the Xing family were full of risks, he tried not to attract attention. He would go back to the Xing family every two or three months to visit Xing Shihuai and Tong Qing.

"The night market has a lot of people recently, so it will be good tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Li Xueying gave her gift and said, "Don't talk about me, how is Auntie doing recently? Inspector Xing is still so busy, did he take you out?"

Tong Qing smiled softly, and patted the back of Li Xueying's hand on her arm: "It's all good, but you are suffering and tired outside. If you can't do it, come back. You still have Inspector Xing to protect you, always It’s better than the wind and rain outside.”

Li Xueying just smiled and didn't answer.After chatting with Tong Qing for a while, he got up and said that he would borrow the bathroom for the time being.

It just so happened that Xing Mo was finishing the conversation with the same person, and when he turned around, he saw the familiar figure disappearing in the transfer box, his eyes instantly deepened a little.

Even in Hawkeye, Xing Mo never stopped paying attention to Li Xueying.But in five years, he never contacted Li Xueying.Hawkeye has strict requirements, and there is basically no chance of leaving the team without authorization. Even if there is, basically no one is in Hong Kong.During the five years, how many times he was on the verge of life and death, and lived a crazy and irresponsible life. At that time, he didn't even know what to do next.No matter how deep his bone-biting thoughts are, he has learned how to swallow them with blood without making a sound.

There is no future, and the great hatred has not been avenged... As for Li Xueying, I heard that he is now working beside Feng Qing, even Li Li.Even if there is more torment in his heart, for Xing Mo, this is not a good time for the two to break the ice.

After a few seconds of silence, Xing Mo turned his eyes and landed on Xing Shaofeng who had just entered the door and was taking off his coat.Li Xueying has gotten very close to this person in the past two years, and their relationship is also very ambiguous.This ambiguity may have nothing to do with Fengyue.But, it's been too long, he really has been away for too long.Five years is enough for one person to forget another person's face when he looks back.Even though he is capable and outstanding in all aspects now, he has no confidence in Li Xueying's attitude.

"I can see that you are not simple. I didn't expect your goal to be O Ji." Here Xing Mo was still thinking, and Xing Shaofeng had already walked towards him, stepping forward to pass him a cigarette.

Xing Mo waved his hand and refused: "The target is the same target. Be careful if you talk nonsense, you will get angry."

Xing Shaofeng laughed and led him to sit down at the table: "Abbot has introduced you to the guests?"

"not yet."

"I'm afraid it will be after dinner. There will be more than thirty people, oh, there will be no way around you, and you will definitely not be able to get away within an hour."

"You seem to have something to say to me?" Xing Mo ignored it, and filled the table with red wine one by one.

This time it was Xing Shaofeng who waved his hand: "I'll line up too, wait until you have eaten."

The two said some irrelevant words again, and the long table was filled with people, except that there was still an empty seat beside Xing Shaofeng.

"No one removed the position." Xing Mo said.

"Who said there was no one?" Xing Shaofeng had an old problem, and unconsciously revealed his romantic nature, "My partner tonight."

Xing Shihuai knocked on the wine bottle, and everyone in the guest seat stopped drinking.

"It's been a long time since everyone got together. I'm really happy to see you all here today." Xing Shihuai supported the table and stood up slowly.Holding the wine glass in his hand, he rolled it back and forth with his fingertips, "These years have been windy and rainy, and it's not easy for everyone. I, Xing Mo, can get to where I am today, thanks to everyone's support and help. Most of you are all from my heart." Many years of friends, relatives, brothers."

He stopped talking at this point, his eyes calmly swept across the table, and the atmosphere present was unconsciously solemn.

"Twenty years ago, a tragedy happened in the life of me and my wife. Friends who know the matter know that since then, my wife has been in poor health and has also recuperated abroad. During that time, I also had I was completely hopeless, and even very irritable and irritable. Later, because of the comfort of some of you and the support of others, I gradually came out of the pain of losing my son. I thought it was a punishment from God.”

He paused briefly and looked at Tong Qing.Tong Qing's eyes were reddish, obviously moved.

Everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay. They knew that this was Tong Qing and Xing Shihuai's heart disease, and no one could cure it.

Why did you bring it up today?

"But I didn't expect that after many years, God gave me another gift, returning to me what I had lost." Xing Shihuai once again turned his attention to Xing Mo who was sitting next to Tong Qing.

Li Xueying just brought the ink chip in the bathroom.There are too many people tonight, it is still not enough to wear them.He couldn't see the face clearly, and he was even more afraid that others would be frightened.

"My son is actually still alive, and now I have found him." Xing Shihuai walked behind Xing Mo and pressed his shoulder, "Xing Mo, thank you for coming back to us."

Xing Mo stood up and met all kinds of eyes.Surprised, unbelievable, moved...too many kinds.

However, among these many gazes, he was sensitively aware of another completely different gaze.

Years of sharp intuition made him raise his eyes instantly.

Immediately afterwards, Xing Mo slammed into a pair of dark eyes.

Li Xueying's whole body seemed to be watered by ice and snow, and she stood still in the distance.

He hasn't concealed and taken care of his appearance for many years, only the ends of his eyebrows have been lightly traced. From hair to eyelashes to sparse eyebrows, they are all pale golden, like a person carved from ice and snow.

The outline vaguely resembles a boy.

Just like back then, and no longer like back then.

Everyone's attention was on Xing Mo, but Li Xueying was caught off guard.

Counting to three seconds, recovering from the shocking blow, Li Xueying quickly turned around.

"Aying!" Xing Shaofeng sat beside Xing Mo and waved at him.

This time Xing Shihuai also noticed him, and hurriedly greeted Li Xueying to take a seat.As if struck by lightning, his body froze, and he was unable to move even under the excessive impact.

Xing Shaofeng got up and took him back to his seat.

Li Xueying raised her eyes, and Xing Mo's eyes happened to jump quickly on him, and then she moved away.

Light and fluffy, as if without weight.

Li Xueying was in a daze and couldn't even pick up Xing Shihuai's conversation with him. Xing Shaofeng also asked him several times during the meal whether he was feeling well.

He almost lost his mind, knowing that it was not appropriate to expose his relationship with Xing Mo on such an occasion, and also knew that this is definitely not a good time for the two to meet again.

No, he never even expected a reunion.

From five years ago, he thought he had...

It's just that Li Xueying couldn't control himself, his eyes turned black, and the huge sense of distortion instantly made him dizzy.For a moment he wondered if this was the real world.

He observed all the clues in him, like a man in the desert longing for an oasis.No matter how he raises his glass, carries his chopsticks, speaks and behaves, or laughs and talks about rumors, he is completely different from the past.

Five years have drastically transformed him, cutting the iron like mud, and the violent frivolity has disappeared, replaced by an unpredictable calm and sophisticated.

Li Xueying was upset and upset. After being shocked and accepted, he was eager to understand what happened to him in the past few years, how he survived, and finally, did he still remember him?

Does he still... love him?

The more you dodge, the more you can't dodge.

The only difference between Xing Mo and Li Xueying is Xing Shaofeng. The two had been talking in a low voice for a few minutes, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

That kind of gaze was too direct and too existential, Li Xueying met his eyes through the wine glass and almost choked.

Xing Shaofeng was talking to Xing Mo with his back turned to Li Xueying, while Xing Mo listened intently, but his eyes were dark, and he observed every expression on Li Xueying's face thoroughly, as if to find out the secret deep in his heart.

Li Xueying was so startled by his wanton and blatant gaze that she fidgeted and took a few sips of wine.

Obviously, Xing Mo still remembered him, but Li Xueying couldn't understand the way he looked at him.At least, it's not like it was back then, the eyes are full of tenderness and affection, which makes people feel safe at a glance.

"Let me introduce, this is Ah Ying. He has helped me several times, and the real gold is no more real than our relationship. He is small, so he is always regarded as a student boy. If there is a chance in the future, please do more for me. Take care of him once. Let me toast with everyone here today." Xing Shaofeng deliberately concealed Li Xueying's life experience and work. You must know that everyone sitting here has a close relationship with Xing Shihuai. If Li Xueying reveals her identity as Feng Qing, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction .

Xing Shaofeng's words immediately turned everyone's attention to Li Xueying.He was too eye-catching. Many people noticed this young man with albinism long before the start. He had light skin and hair, but he was still wearing a light-colored shirt. He looked like he walked out of a painting.Many people discussed it in private, but Li Xueying didn't even care about this gaze.He clenched the knife and fork tightly, and almost didn't listen to a word, all his attention was involuntarily focused on the person on the other side.

Sitting down, Xing Shaofeng, who finally noticed Xing Mo's gaze, introduced Li Xueying to him kindly, and smiled unconsciously: "I hope I didn't surprise you, he looks special because of illness, he can't see the light during the day, so he can only be seen at night." It's not easy to work. Our Xing family has some connections with him, he often visits and stays, and after a long time, he can be regarded as half of the Xing family."

It's okay to just listen to the first few sentences, but even Li Xueying feels a little uncomfortable after hearing the last few sentences.What is his status, what is his relationship with the Xing family, these things are too difficult to explain clearly.

The banter on Xing Mo's face was fleeting, and he hid it very well, not giving Xing Shaofeng and Li Xueying any sign of detection.

He stretched out his hand, like any gentleman he met for the first time, polite and graceful: "Xing Mo."
