under the filth

"Let's break up."

Tang Cen stood in front of the phone with the receiver in his hands, tensely waiting for Lu Sheng's answer.He thought he would hear Lu Sheng roar angrily, or apologize apologetically, but Lu Sheng at the other end didn't say a word.

After Tang Cen finished speaking, Lu Sheng fell into a long silence.

Tang Cen felt that all the sounds around him disappeared in that minute, only the slight breathing sound from the other end of the phone, and the beating sound of his heart from his chest.

At other times, 1 minute is always very short, but at this time, the silence over the phone made the time as long as a century.

He stood there alone, waiting for nothing.

Tang Cen didn't realize that 1 minute had come until the busy tone of "beep—" the phone automatically hung up.

The phone was hung up, and Tang Cen didn't even need to think about it carefully, his brain clearly remembered the one minute of silence just now.

Lu Sheng didn't say anything, but Tang Cen didn't care about it.

The moment Tang Cen hung up the phone, Tang Cen heard a "boom" coming from somewhere in his body. The rope that had been hanging from his heart was cut by an invisible pair of scissors at that moment, and his heart fell back. The original position also threw away all the fear and anxiety.

Tang Cen's attention was distracted at once, and the voices isolated from his surroundings flooded towards him like a flood. He heard the voice of the airport broadcaster. A sweet female voice was informing the passengers that the flight to some unknown destination was delayed due to the weather.

Tang Cen dragged his suitcase and strode towards the security check passage.His reddened eye sockets and the sound of sniffing made the people around couldn't help but look at him twice, but Tang Cen felt extremely happy in his heart, and all the negative emotions before disappeared at that moment.

After so many years, he finally broke up with Lu Shengti!Finally said it!

He wanted to say this sentence five years ago when he woke up, and he should have said it at that time, but he didn't.After failing to commit suicide, the cowardly man was immersed in fear and despair after being interrupted by Tang Songyuan.

At that time, Tang Cen didn't have anything to rely on or support around him. Being alone and helpless, he couldn't do without Lu Sheng, the only person he had access to.Tang Cen never had the right to choose, he was even forcefully thrown at Lu Sheng's feet by Tang Songyuan, forcing him to kneel on the ground and beg for Lu Sheng's mercy.

At that time, Lu Sheng didn't kick him away, and Tang Cen was even grateful for that, but he still had to face the ending of being abandoned, but the ending was delayed for five years.

If he could speak out at that time, he would not be tortured and bruised by someone close to him like now.He was injured again and again in the fawning, but those people never tire of it, tearing off his carefully camouflaged skin while he was dying, and destroying the daily life he worked so hard to maintain.

Every night after Lu Sheng's derailment, the idea of ​​suicide repeatedly appeared in Tang Cen's mind.He was lying in the cold bedroom, and in the growing despair, he held his neck with his cold hands, pushing down bit by bit...

The more force you go down, the clearer the feeling of suffocation becomes.

Tang Cen would not let go until he was completely out of breath.He breathed with his mouth wide open, and the stale air in the bedroom entered his lungs along his nose and throat.

He is still alive, but he struggles with death and dying every day. Even Lu Sheng can't understand the torture and pain he endured.

Tang Cen really wanted to ask Jiang Yan what kind of mood she had when she jumped off the high platform at that time.

But Jiang Yan was gone, and he would never get her answer.

After Jiang Yan's death, Tang Cen even forgot about her for a long period of time, and her figure would suddenly appear in front of Tang Cen's eyes until he faced a desperate situation again.The girl who briefly appeared in his life for a few years changed his perception of his past life, and also messed up his future.

Tang Cen didn't regret knowing Jiang Yan and Lu Sheng, but he was fed up with this kind of life.Whether it is listening to Tang Songyuan's instructions in a daze, or being sober and crazy beside Lu Sheng, neither of these two is the life he expected.

He is a "psychopath" in Tang Songyuan's mouth, and a monster in the eyes of others, even Lu Sheng abandoned him.If the price of integrating into the crowd is constant torture, it is better to drift alone in a foreign country until you die.

This is good now, he can go to Paris, to places that Lu Sheng can't find, and he can live alone, without having to wag his tail and beg for mercy from others.

Since you can't choose to be born, you can choose to die.

After passing the security check, Tang Cen walked on the corridor of the airport.Beside him, outside the huge glass wall, a plane was landing smoothly and taxiing rapidly on the runway.

At this moment, Tang Cen didn't know what Lu Sheng's mood was thousands of miles away. Even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart. That man was a thing of the past for him, and now he just hoped to live in peace. live the rest of my life.

Tang Cen planned the rest of his life, but Lu Sheng was devastated because of his phone call.

When he saw Tang Cen calling, Lu Sheng was sitting in his office reading documents.It took him a lot of hard work to win the opportunity. The British cooperative company will send people to inspect it next week. In order to successfully sign the contract, Lu Sheng must make sufficient preparations.

This cooperative company is where Lu Sheng and Tang Cen used to work, and their cooperation is also very important to Lu Sheng's company, so Lu Sheng specially told his assistant not to let anyone disturb him this afternoon.

When Lu Sheng saw this overseas call from the UK, he subconsciously prepared to press it, but when he saw that the place he belonged to was the UK, he swiped his finger and connected the phone that was about to hang up.

The moment the call from England was connected, Lu Sheng already had a bad premonition in his heart, and this premonition was too strong for him to ignore, exactly the same as the day Tang Cen disappeared.So shortly after answering the phone, facing the other party's silence, Lu Sheng realized that it was Tang Cen who was calling.

Tang Cen's words "Let's break up" were particularly jarring in Lu Sheng's ears.His hands gripped the phone so tightly that it was almost crushed.

It's really Tang Cen?He actually broke up with himself?Hiding his illness and using himself, why should he break up?Do you think you can get rid of him by breaking up?He took care of Tang Cen for so long, and now he broke up immediately when he didn't need it. What qualifications does Tang Cen have?

Lu Sheng kept roaring in his heart, silently counting all the crimes Tang Cen committed in the past.Since Tang Cen fell ill, Lu Sheng never said a word to Tang Cen, but the complaints in his heart gradually accumulated.

But facing Tang Cen across the phone, Lu Sheng still didn't say a word, he knew that if he said it, Tang Cen would completely disappear from his world.

Lu Sheng has always loved Tang Cen, but for most of the time after returning to China, Tang Cen was put at the end by him.

Tang Cen left without making a sound that day. Facing the empty house and the neatly tidy bedroom, Lu Sheng was so angry that he smashed everything that could be smashed on the spot.

He wanted to take Tang Cen back, but the second he took out his phone and opened the address book, Lu Sheng received a call from his assistant.

The cooperation with the British company was imminent, so Lu Sheng had to let Tang Cen go temporarily, but he didn't expect that at this juncture, Tang Cen actually went to the UK and broke up with him.

Hearing the busy tone of the phone hanging up, Lu Sheng wished he could go to England to arrest Tang Cen immediately, lock him on the bed and give him a hard lesson.

But he can't.

If Lu Sheng leaves the company now and gives up cooperation for Tang Cen, then all his ten years of hard work will be in vain.Although Lu Sheng developed through Su Yuqing's influence, in the end it was because of his relationship with Tang Cen. It can be said that everything Lu Sheng has now is because of Tang Cen.

Su Yuqing has not terminated his cooperation with him yet, and it is not known whether he knows about this matter.Lu Sheng couldn't see through that man, but this nominal uncle rarely interfered in Tang Cen's private affairs, so Tang Cen should be wandering alone now.

A few seconds before the call was hung up, Lu Sheng heard the voice of the airport broadcaster. The only thing he could be sure of now was that Tang Cen was at the airport.Having been together day and night for 12 years, based on Lu Sheng's understanding of Tang Cen, no matter where he goes in the future, it will always be on the land of Europe, and he won't be able to travel very far.

Weighing the pros and cons, Lu Sheng temporarily put Tang Cen's matter behind him, but the phone call he answered and the decision he made involved more than just his and Tang Cen's fate.

Shortly after hanging up the phone, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in." Lu Sheng, who was in an extremely bad mood, could no longer read the large stack of documents, and asked someone to come in without even thinking about it.

The assistant poked his head out by the door, with a full apology on his face, and he said cautiously: "Mr. Lu, just now the person in charge of the UK sent an email, saying that Mr. Eisen Sterling, who was originally planned to be sent to negotiate I will be sent to France next month, so someone else will come."

"France?" Lu Sheng raised his head and asked in surprise, "Swapped? Who?"

Seeing his displeasure, the assistant hurriedly reported his name.

When Lu Sheng heard that unfamiliar name, he only pinched his eyebrows and sighed long.But at his busiest time, both Tang Cen and Aisen had problems.

"It's business as usual." Lu Sheng had a bad premonition in his heart, but in the end he just waved his hand and let the assistant go out after giving instructions helplessly.

Aisen is a direct student of Lu Sheng University, and participated in the research project carried out by Lu Sheng in his third year of junior high school. The two of them are fairly familiar with each other.

Originally, when he heard that Eisen was sent from England this time, Lu Sheng was secretly relieved. Eisen was his junior after all, so it was convenient for both public and private use, but who knew that there was another temporary change in England. .

But now, Lu Sheng can only bite the bullet, and he has no intention of caring about Tang Cen or Aisen's affairs after he is busy.
