"Bang!" Tan Zhen dropped the phone in his hand to the ground, followed by the swaying of the withered grass. He bent down to pick up the phone, and slowly got up.

He heard everything, listening to an insider tell the story of the year as it was, which made him tremble slightly.

He didn't remember what Manjia was like, or even Manjia's appearance, but his heart still trembled, especially because the person who set fire to his house was actually his favorite Lang Ge.

Su Lang heard the sound not far away, turned his head quickly, and met Tan Zhen's eyes, his brain immediately became dizzy.

"Ah Zhen!" Su Lang saw Tan Zhen's haggardness for the first time when they met again after many days.

Unlike hiding in the car watching Tan Zhen, it is easier to read the other person's feelings when they meet each other's eyes.

"This is the reason why you want to break the appointment, isn't it?" Tan Zhen unknowingly clenched the fist hanging by his side tightly, rubbing his teeth, making a sound from between the teeth.

"Ah Zhen!" Su Lang got up, the wind in the wilderness made his feet flutter.

He thought about the scene of meeting Tan Zhenyu countless times after the truth came out, but none of them caught people off guard like this one.

He knew he owed him an apology.

"Ah Zhen, I'm sorry!" Su Lang walked towards Tan Zhen, his face was stiff and his eyes were loose.

"It turns out that I have been blaming the wrong person all my life. It turns out that I owe everything to you!" Tan Zhen took a deep breath and looked up to the sky. The winter sun shone on his face but there was no warmth.

A child setting off fireworks and an adult doing nothing, blurred images repeatedly appear in Tan Zhen's mind, overlapping with his imagined home.

Su Lang approached and put his hands on Tan Zhen's shoulders.Tan Zhen opened his eyes, flung them away suddenly, and stretched out his hand to punch Su Lang fiercely.

Su Lang was caught off guard and staggered by Tan Zhen's sudden punch. When the pain and dizziness had not completely subsided, he continued: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Tan Zhen had never been so disappointed before, all the organs around his chest were tormenting as if they were on fire.

He hates him, he would rather never meet this person, would rather never fall in love with him.

Suddenly, a big bird flapped its wings and flew down from a branch not far away.

It flew around Tan Zhen and Su Lang several times, chirping: "They are here, the police are here, what are you going to do?"

"Did you call the police?" Su Lang couldn't care less about asking how Tan Zhen got to this place, his eyes showed deep remorse and self-blame.

Tan Zhen was also surprised, who would have found this place overgrown with grass if he hadn't tipped off the news, but he really didn't do anything.

At this moment, Chen Yu, who was still drowsy, suddenly got up from the ground and rushed towards the open car door.

He started the car tremblingly, and plunged into the more desolate depths without looking back.

"you……"

"he……"

The police car rang, Tan Zhen and Su Lang looked at each other in blank dismay.

Although Tan Zhen knew the truth, he couldn't hand over Su Lang to the police.

Although Su Lang knew the consequences of being caught by the police, he had no choice but to leave Tan Zhen alone and run away.

Just like that, they stared into each other's eyes in the cold wind, listening to the sound of police cars roaring from far to near.

Finally, a circle of red and blue halo surrounded them, the big bird hid far away, Tan Zhen and Su Lang still only had each other in their eyes.

"I'm sorry, Ah Zhen, at that time, I was just a child who wanted to set off a firework, I'm sorry," Su Lang seized the last time to say, "I love you, I love you, if I knew that I would love you in my life , I won’t be so capricious at that time, I’m sorry!”

Tan Zhen's eyes were sore, and he shed a tear almost at the same time as Su Lang who was opposite him.

……

When Tan Zhen returned to the city, he found Yu Xing immediately.

For a moment, he really hoped that Su Lang would pay the worst price for his actions back then.He had read the report on the fire, and the whole family of thirteen people were all buried in the sea of ​​flames. It was too light to exchange one life.

But seeing Su Lang being taken away, he felt his whole being was hollowed out. The only concern in this world, the only person who was willing to give his life in exchange was taken away like that, and he refused.

Yu Xing didn't explain much, but told Tan Zhen when he was having dinner with him that Su Lang's cell phone had been monitored long ago, and it would be a matter of time before he was caught.

At night, Tan Zhen was lying on the bed, unable to sleep at night. He didn't expect that Su Junliang, who was cautious in his work and hadn't leaked the fox's tail for so many years, was still reluctant to throw away his phone and completely cut off contact with Su Junliang.

He still loves me—Tan Zhen thinks so—he really cares about me!

Tan Zhen couldn't sleep well that night, and he couldn't convince himself to sleep well when he knew that Su Lang had been arrested.

All he can do is to pray over and over again unconsciously, praying that all this is just a dream, wake up quickly, and everything will return to normal.

Before dawn, he put on his coat and walked out of the alley.

At the intersection, the old woman selling sugar oil cakes struggled to push the cart, and walked step by step to the place where the stall was usually set up.

Tan Zhen stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help the old woman push the cart.The old woman smiled heartily when she saw him.

She asked him, why haven't seen him for a long time, did he change his job and stop working the night shift?

Tan Zhen didn't answer the question, but said that the sugar oil cake made by the old lady was the best in the world.

He patiently waited for her to set up the stall, blow out the suppressed fire, set up an iron pan, fill it with oil, and knead the bread stuffing... The first pot of delicious sugar cakes, a total of twelve, he wanted all of them.

Tan Zhen was reluctant to eat any of them, rubbed his sore nose, and opened the phone.

He remembered that there was once a female client who was a very famous lawyer in City A.

Now, Su Lang's father, Su Junliang, is still on the run, and there is no one around him he can count on. The only thing he can do to help him is to hire a professional lawyer for him.

After hearing what Tan Zhen said, Lawyer Shao felt that in this case, it was actually not difficult to get Su Lang out cleanly. As long as he found enough evidence to prove that he was young and did not do it intentionally, he would have a relationship with the Su family in the future. It's good that he doesn't know about all the evil things.

After hearing the lawyer's words, Tan Zhen's nervous heart gradually returned to his chest, and he urged the other party to meet Su Lang as soon as possible.

Lawyer Shao once met Tan Zhen at a party. She was one of the few people who gave Tan Zhen her contact information after the transaction and said that she could find her anytime if needed.

And Tan Zhen knew that if he took advantage of this kind of person, he would definitely use his body to make up for it, so he was always a little timid.But now he can't think so much, this is the only way to help Su Lang.

When Tan Zhen looked at Lawyer Shao with a begging look, she already understood that the person she was going to meet had an unusual relationship with Tan Zhen.

"Can you bring this to him for me?" It was lunch time when Tan Zhen and the lawyer met, but he was still carrying a dozen sugar cakes bought from the old woman in his hand.

Lawyer Shao smiled, nodded slightly, and took the handle of the hot food bag from Tan Zhen's fingertips with fingers painted with bright red fingernails, and said, "I'm very happy that you are the first to come to me when you are in trouble. "

Tan Zhen smiled. He knew that his smile was unnatural, but he still stretched out his hand and patted the back of the female lawyer's hand, like some kind of indescribable transaction signal.
