After Cheng Yu reacted, he immediately struggled to stand up and tried to pull Tang Haochu's hand, but his brain after drinking too much alcohol could no longer support the movement and balance of his whole body, so he failed to get up after two attempts.Limited by the position and angle, Cheng Yu could only see Tang Haochu's slender and beautiful chin, but couldn't see his expression and eyes clearly. The girl in the white dress was helped up by the young man in the jacket first, and saw clearly It came to Tang Haochu's eyes.
Those eyes were warm and clear, like a peaceful lake reflecting the sky, or a bright and high starry sky, completely ignoring their ambiguous lying posture before.
She couldn't help clenching her fists tightly, her expression was even slightly distorted, and Cheng Yu finally stood up with Lin Feng's help, and then grabbed Tang Haochu's hand and called out, "Haochu..."
There was an indescribable uneasiness in my heart, and the handsome face was full of anxiety, but my drunken brain didn't know what to say or do, so I just apologized subconsciously: "I'm sorry, don't be angry..."
The people around were slightly taken aback when they heard it.The Cheng family has been ranked among the top three in the country's richest list for so many years. As the only son, Cheng Yu is completely the pride of heaven. My friends are used to holding him up, let alone hearing him apologize, so it feels fresh to hear him apologize first without saying a word.
Seeing that Cheng Yu still looked nervous for fear that Tang Haochu would not accept his apology, he held Tang Haochu's hand very tightly, and it felt even fresher.Fortunately, Tang Haochu did not shake Cheng Yu's hand away, and only asked softly, "Do you want to go back?"
The answer is of course yes, Cheng Yu nodded hastily, just like a dog that finally waited for the master to come to him, he raised his foot and followed Tang Haochu, and he fell down after only one step.
——He was completely drunk. Excessive alcohol caused insufficient blood supply to the brain, and his body was so exhausted that he fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up again, it was already the next day.
It had just rained in the morning, and the weather outside was a bit cloudy, but very comfortable and pleasant.The wind blows in from the window, like a gentle hand brushing over the cheeks, the air is soaked in rain and is moist and fresh, as if fish are swimming in and out of the doors and windows freely.Begonias in the garden bloomed the last wave of flowers at the end of spring, and jasmine bloomed the first wave of flowers, and the fragrance of flowers could be smelled in the bedroom.In addition, he could faintly smell the fragrant and tempting porridge from the kitchen——all these made Cheng Yu, who had just woken up, fall into a peaceful and peaceful trance.
After being in a trance for a while, he came back to his senses, raised his hand and rubbed his temples.The hangover was the worst, but Cheng Yu didn't feel as bad as he imagined, he just felt a little dizzy.It was only when he looked down and saw the needle holes at the knuckles that he realized the reason for his discomfort. Tang Haochu had obviously given him acupuncture.
He immediately went to find Tang Haochu, tried his best to get up from the bed, walked to the door of the living room, and saw the young man standing in front of Haitang in the garden at a glance.The young man is concentrating on pruning the ruined crabapple after the rain, with his head slightly lowered, and his slender hands are carefully handling the rich residual red. His side face and posture are extremely beautiful, and the vast and boundless sky behind him has become his background.
Cheng Yu stood there silently watching for a long time, until Tang Haochu noticed him, put down the flowers and came over.
The porridge in the casserole was almost cooked, Tang Haochu immediately went to the kitchen to watch the pot adjust the fire, and fried the side dishes that had been cut before.The smell of food in the house and the young people's busy backs gave Cheng Yu a feeling of peace of mind. Even though he was only [-] years old, he felt that this life was enough, and that there would never be a happier and more peaceful life than this, even if it was always If you can't take the last step of physical and mental unity with the other party, you have to cling to him and live with him for the rest of your life.
The porridge was served quickly, because I wanted to eat something light after a hangover, so it was just white porridge with dates added, but it was very fragrant and smooth, and several dishes were also appetizing.Tang Haochu put the porridge bowl away and asked, "Do you have a headache?"
"It doesn't hurt. Acupuncture is very useful." Cheng Yu paused and then said, "I'm only a little dizzy, but I've gotten used to it a long time ago."
Tang Haochu blinked his eyes in confusion when he heard the words. He obviously didn't understand Cheng Yu's meaning. Cheng Yu resisted the thought of reaching out to kiss his eyelashes and said, "I couldn't help but faint when I saw you. Of course I have fainted for so many years. got used to."
In recent years, Cheng Yu has often made such love talk or even nasty talk, and if he was a different person, he would probably get used to it, but with such a restrained and pure personality as a young man, it seems that he will never be able to get used to it, and he will always cover up excuses to busy himself with other things, and even The tips of his ears would turn red slightly because of those nasty words, making Cheng Yu feel pain and love in his heart.But Tang Haochu was not busy with other things this time and did not have red ears, but suddenly raised his head and said, "What about Miss Bai?"
The girl in the white dress yesterday was named Bai.Cheng Yu was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously explained: "She and I are just ordinary friends."
After explaining, I realized something was wrong: "How do you know her surname is Bai?"
Tang Haochu didn't answer, but lowered his eyes and said, "Let's eat."
Cheng Yu ate his meal with relish on the surface, but he couldn't help becoming nervous in his heart.He has a lot of male friends and female friends, and Tang Haochu has never asked about it for so many years, and Tang Haochu will mention Miss Bai is definitely not jealous. After getting along for so long, he knows that Tang Haochu is not the kind of person who will be jealous, whether he likes you or not. I don't even like you.Some trivial matters that others cannot tolerate are not important to him. If it involves a matter of principle, he will simply leave directly, and will not waste time on meaningless things such as jealousy or quarrels.
I don't know whether it's a guilty conscience or fear of Tang Haochu's misunderstanding, Cheng Yu couldn't help explaining a few more words: "Bai Lingqing only came to Beijing to go to school the year before last——that's the 'Miss Bai' you just mentioned. Her family is not here, because her mother and I Mom is an old classmate, so she stays at my house temporarily, my mom likes her very much, but I have nothing to do with her..."
In fact, Tang Haochu already knew Bai Lingqing's full name - Tang Haochu received an email from the other party after returning home last night.Attached are two very clear photos. In the photo, Cheng Yu was shopping with her in a jewelry store, picking out a necklace that was obviously a woman's necklace. In the other photo, they were still holding hands.
Tang Haochu was indeed not jealous, and he didn't take emails seriously, but he received the second and third emails in just one month, and the photos in them became more intimate each time.
During this period of time, Tang Haochu, who was so busy going back and forth between the medical experiment project and the doctoral graduation defense, still didn't take it seriously. He only thought that Miss Bai was indeed beautiful, but this shortcoming of wanting to show off or demonstrate should be blamed. Change it.What really made him face up to this matter was a phone call——probably because the email didn't get the desired effect, Bai Lingqing actually called.
Tang Haochu had just arrived in Germany when he received the call, and was about to attend a very famous international medical forum. It was a bit strange to see an unfamiliar number on the caller ID, because he knew that the people who called him were all acquaintances.Tang Haochu hesitated for a while before answering the phone, and heard a nice female voice: "Hello, is this Mr. Tang Haochu?"
The voice was very gentle, but there was an indescribable arrogance. Tang Haochu had vaguely guessed the other party's identity and purpose, and said, "Yes."
Normal people would often ask 'Who are you' in this situation, but Tang Haochu said nothing, so Bai Lingqing had no choice but to introduce himself: "I am Bai Lingqing."
"Oh."
There was no more words after another word, and the tone did not show any surprise, which made Bai Lingqing feel unspeakable frustration again.She bit the bullet and insisted on finishing the sentence: "I'm with Cheng Yu....I," she paused, "so I think it's better for us to meet. At seven o'clock in the evening, Swan Castle Coffee hall……"
Tang Haochu interrupted Bai Lingqing, "I'm in Munich."
Bai Lingqing was taken aback for a moment, and his tone was suspicious: "Now?"
"If you don't believe me, you can watch the broadcast on TV or online, and I will speak on stage. This forum is a well-known event in the medical field, and it will be broadcast in many countries."
Compared to Bai Lingqing's unfounded pride, Tang Haochu was truly worthy of pride, but his tone was very ordinary, as if speaking on behalf of the entire country was just a trivial matter.He seemed to be already busy there——some German was faintly heard, he was talking to Tang Haochu, Tang Haochu immediately replied in German, with a standard and fluent pronunciation.
Listening to the voice on the receiver, Bai Lingqing felt as if he and himself were not in the same world at all, and the difference was already obvious without meeting each other.Just like the Swan Castle coffee shop she mentioned just now, the most expensive coffee in it is as high as thousands, which is the most high-end place she can think of, but it is only called Swan Castle after all, not the real Swan Castle, the real Swan Castle. Swan Castle happened to be in Munich where Tang Haochu was at the moment.
"Let's change it to Sunday night." Tang Haochu turned back to the microphone after talking to the person next to him, "I'm going back to China on Saturday, but there is still an operation to be done right after. The patient made an appointment half a year ago and cannot reschedule. Only after the surgery can I find time."
When Tang Haochu returned to China on Saturday, Cheng Yu picked up the plane in person. Even though the plane was delayed for several hours, he still waited patiently without getting bored. He also brought Tang Haochu's favorite desserts and beautiful roses.However, Tang Haochu keenly smelled the faint scent of perfume on his body, which was obviously a lady's perfume.
Tang Haochu did not go back with Cheng Yu, but went to see the patient who was going to have surgery the next day.
The temperature in midsummer is very high, making people anxious and irritable, and the operating room is even more anxious, because the operation situation is much more complicated than expected.But Tang Haochu finally completed the operation calmly, but the operation time was much longer than expected.
So when Tang Hao first arrived at the coffee shop, he was almost an hour late.
He was not in a hurry, because he knew that Bai Lingqing would continue to wait no matter how late, but he thought that the other party would ask for a box or something, but before he even entered the door, he saw the other party sitting in the most conspicuous place in the hall.
When Bai Lingqing saw Tang Haochu, she immediately smiled politely at him, but Tang Haochu didn't have the time to respond to her smile, but instead called the lobby manager and asked him to prepare a private room.The lobby manager immediately nodded respectfully, and quickly ran over to make arrangements. Tang Haochu then walked towards Bai Lingqing. As he approached, he smelled the perfume on the other party, which was exactly the same as what he had smelled on Cheng Yu before.
But he didn't show any expression on his face, he just said softly: "I want a private room, let's talk there."
The consumption here is already high enough, and the consumption in the private room is self-evident. Bai Lingqing couldn't help hesitating for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Just talk here, it doesn't need to be so troublesome."
Tang Haochu glanced at her as soon as she finished speaking,——I didn't know how to describe that look, but she had a faint illusion that the other party was looking at a fool or suspecting that she had a problem with IQ. After reading it, she slowly said: "Since you and Cheng Yu is together, don't you know the situation of the Cheng family?"
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment, and then Tang Haochu continued speaking slowly: "The Cheng family has always attracted the attention of the public and the media, but now it is still connected with the Yang family. There are videos of people coming and going in the hall, and someone passing by heard it for a while, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Bai Lingqing's stupefaction became more obvious, and it never occurred to Tang Haochu that she could easily guess that she had brought the recording and video.Obviously Tang Haochu's tone was gentle and flat, he was just stating the facts, without any harshness or irony, but in Bai Lingqing's ears, it seemed that he was harshness or irony: "These consequences don't matter to me, and the academic world doesn't value them. Personal affairs, especially in foreign countries, are different in the business world and political circles. Personal image and credibility are very important. This store is of high grade, and it will attract not only celebrities, but also journalists and paparazzi who have nothing to do. Say you just want to make things public? Let everyone know?"
Naturally, Bai Lingqing didn't want to announce it to the public, but he really never thought that he should go to the private room.Although she lives in the Cheng family, the Cheng family's class is still too far away from her, and things like reporters and paparazzi are equally far away from her.Bai Lingqing's face was already blue and white, and he couldn't speak a word. Fortunately, the manager came over at this time - he had already arranged the private room, so he personally came to lead Tang Haochu there.
The environment in the private room is better than that in the lobby. As the top coffee shop in the urban area, all private rooms must be reserved. When ordinary people ask, the answer is always full. Bai Lingqing can't make an appointment even if he wants to, but for Tang Haochu It was just a matter of coming here temporarily to give instructions. In Bai Lingqing's eyes, the lobby manager's respectful attitude made her feel as uncomfortable as the words she heard just now.
She secretly thought in her heart that this might be the life she could live after getting Cheng Yu, thinking that she would enjoy such treatment one day, but she never thought that the money Tang Haochu used was all earned by himself or given by the Tang family. Yes, it never took a single hair of the process.
The manager led the waiter out after serving the coffee, and would not come in rashly until he heard the bell.The door was gently closed, but Bai Lingqing did not speak for a long time.Obviously, he had thought about what he was going to say many times before coming here, but looking at Tang Haochu now, he still felt the unspeakable pressure.
In fact, she had seen Tang Haochu's photos from Cheng Yu a long time ago, and she kept them in Cheng Yu's wallet. One was a standard bareheaded frontal photo torn from the student union ID, and the other was leaning on the sofa in the morning. The sleeping face obviously came from a candid shot.The person in the photo is good-looking enough, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he realizes that the photo is not even half his size.Tang Haochu was still wearing the doctor's gown that he hadn't changed after the operation. The gown was open, and he could see the smoky gray shirt inside, the protruding collarbone and the beautiful sunken neck at the neckline of the shirt. It was as simple as that. He also wears a white coat with an outstanding temperament, which can be distinguished from others at a glance.
Bai Lingqing finally spoke apologetically: "I know I shouldn't take the liberty of disturbing you, but I think we should meet and talk. Actually, I have been with Cheng Yu for a long time, and I think this is very unfair to you. I didn't mean to destroy your relationship, nor did I want you to break up, I know you have been together for many years..."
Her expression was also obviously guilty, but there was no concealment in her eyes: "But I love Cheng Yu very much, more than anyone else, Cheng Yu also likes me, and his parents also like me very much .I can give him a complete family and a pair of children..."
After speaking, she played a recording she brought.
The recording has been edited, but the words in it are indeed from Cheng Yu and his mother.With the level and status of Cheng's group, there is no need for marriage, not to mention the fact that a big tree attracts the wind. Sometimes it may not be a good thing to get too much resources and attention. What the Cheng family should do now is not to grow bigger, but to be more low-key and more stable. Cheng Yu The Yang family he married was powerful enough, so when Cheng Yu came here, the family hoped that he would marry a girl from an ordinary family who was more manipulative, have more children, and live a peaceful life.
Bai Lingqing was obviously a good choice. In the recording, Cheng Yu's mother seemed to have regarded her as the best marriage partner, and asked Cheng Yu's opinion earnestly.Cheng Yu has already turned [-], and this age is regarded as a very late marriage in the eyes of the older generation. Cheng's parents are inevitably a little anxious, perhaps because Cheng's mother's tone is too earnest, and Cheng Yu did not clearly agree or refuse. , but he made a promise that Cheng's mother said that sooner or later she would give birth to a grandson.
The recording stopped right here, but Tang Haochu still didn't respond.He has been concentrating on putting sugar in the coffee, and he has added all the sugar cubes in a can, and then stirs it carefully in the coffee before drinking, and then narrows his eyes in satisfaction because of the sweetness.Seeing this, Bai Lingqing gritted his teeth and threw out the last chip, saying, "I had sex with Cheng Yu, and there is a video."
Tang Haochu finally raised his head and glanced at Bai Lingqing lightly.
Even though she fell into Cheng Yu's arms at the club that night, Tang Haochu didn't pay attention to her at all. Later, he paid attention to the photos in the mailbox. She was a standard beauty with an indescribable sense of familiarity, and a kind that would make men The heart-pounding sweet taste, now sitting here watching, that sweet taste is even stronger.Tang Haochu didn't ask when they had a relationship, nor how she got together with Cheng Yu, but only asked something inexplicable: "How old are you this year?"
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Nineteen."
Tang Haochu remembered that he was nineteen when he was with Cheng Yu.
"You don't need to watch the video, I understand what you mean." Tang Haochu finished the cup of coffee that was extremely sweet to others but tasted great to him, stood up and said seriously: "I will think about it carefully. of."
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment again, this time he was really surprised, and hurriedly got up: "I really don't want you to break up, I just want to..."
"Miss Bai," Tang Haochu was almost at the door, but stopped when he heard this, turned to look at Bai Lingqing and said, "Forgive me, although I don't know if you and Cheng Yu are together, and I don't want to look into it." How true is what you said, but as far as the current situation is concerned, if you didn’t send emails and call me to ask me out, I wouldn’t even know you existed.”
Fortunately, Bai Lingqing was not too stupid to understand the implication of these words, and his face immediately turned pale.And Tang Haochu has always respected women—this is a habit he has developed since the last world, so his tone is still gentle at this time: "So, I suggest that you better get the man you want first, Let’s talk to the other party. I’m not saying that it’s not good for you. After all, luck is very important. For example, you met me today. But if you change someone who cares about Cheng Yu as much as you do, or who has an impulsive personality , today is probably the last day in your life that you will feel comfortable and happy. Let’s not talk about those who care about Cheng Yu, just talk about those who are impulsive. That cup of hot coffee from the front end disfigured you, even if you have the ability to make the other party pay the price, your face will never come back."
Without looking at Bai Lingqing's expression, Tang Haochu opened the door and walked out.The slender figure gracefully disappeared outside the door, just like how light ink can draw the most beautiful landscape in the hands of a famous artist, and the plain white on his body can be more beautiful than any fancy clothes.
Tang Haochu started to pack his things when he returned to the villa.
In fact, he is still not sure whether he prefers men or women, but his self-esteem does not allow him to compete with a girl for a man, especially with a girl who is obviously beautiful but does not know why her IQ is so low.It would be fine if Bai Lingqing was pure and kind. When I approached him, I said sincerely that I didn't want you two to break up, but I couldn't help but like Cheng Yu, and I didn't know whether to treat him as a fool or myself.The Cheng family just wanted to keep a low profile and decided to find an ordinary girl who was easy to control and not make trouble as a daughter-in-law, but from taking photos secretly to recording videos to today's performance, she was completely digging her own grave.
"Warning the host, warning the host," the system seemed to have detected Tang Haochu's thoughts, and began to send out a series of prompts: "The task of 'Housekeeper' has only been five and a half years, and there are still nearly two years to complete. Once this task The interruption will start all over again and cannot be accumulated. It is suggested that the host should not give up the mission at this time, and the failure of the mission will face very serious punishment..."
But Tang Haochu didn't stop packing his things, he just asked in his mind: "What punishment?"
"Punishments are generally various diseases, because the original owner of this world suffers from autism, and autistic patients still have difficulty socializing with others after being cured, and it is easy to turn into depression, so..."
"So if the mission fails, I will get depression?"
"Correct."
However, the system did not expect that not only did it not change Tang Haochu's decision at all, but it made Tang Haochu decide to give up this task directly, and he was not even willing to find other people to try.Tang Haochu finally admitted that he didn't have the talent to be a househusband, and finally realized that he didn't love Cheng Yu at all.I originally thought that I could forcefully fall in love after a long time, but the most unforceable thing in this world is love.Seven years is still too long, he was wrong at the beginning, this kind of thing of being together without emotion and purely for the mission is unfair to anyone.He doesn't want everything to be controlled by the system, he would rather accept punishment.
That night Tang Haochu took his luggage and left the villa where he had lived for nearly six years.
Cheng Yu happened to be on a business trip, and he won't be back until tomorrow night. Tang Haochu temporarily stayed in a very private hotel, and planned to buy a ticket to return to S City tomorrow morning, and then work in Tang Family Hospital.
But he didn't expect that he not only failed to buy the ticket, but also lost the strength to walk out of the room.
Tang Haochu originally thought that the punishment for abandoning the mission would not come so quickly, and that depression is nothing, which can be overcome through willpower. However, the system issued the punishment for mission failure in just one day, and the brain's biogenic amines were seriously unbalanced. Unprecedented depression surged, occupying all nerves.
Depression is not divided into early or late stages, only mild and severe. For a normal person, being suddenly controlled by depressed emotions is more painful than developing from mild to severe step by step.Tang Haochu even experienced various symptoms of physical discomfort, such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, sweating and insomnia, especially in the quiet late night and morning, when people have the most time to think, they are easily pulled into a swamp from which they cannot extricate themselves.
Churchill once described depression as a black dog, saying that it would bite people every chance it had, killing countless geniuses.Tang Haochu tried to let himself enter the palace of the brain and immerse himself in the world of learning, but he still couldn't control himself to think about some limitless things, and he was immersed in the mood of world-weariness when he thought about it.He can't concentrate on studying, and he can't even watch movies or listen to music, because as long as it is something that can touch people's emotions, even if it is only a tiny bit, it will turn into a huge wave when it comes to him, swallowing all reason.
The next morning, Tang Haochu managed to pack up his mood all night, and told himself that he had to cheer up today, and stood there for a long time, but he couldn't move for a long time.My mind was empty and buzzing, and I stood still for a long time, not knowing when I came to the window.It seems that there are ghosts whispering outside the window, and a few dead trees are laughing wildly. After careful identification, the sound disappears inch by inch, leaving only distorted shadows.
He began to feel that it was really useless to continue like this.He clearly felt his brain slowing down and his concentration frighteningly distracted, but there was nothing he could do about it.
I don't want to talk, I can't eat, and I can't answer the phone. Fortunately, he has graduated with a Ph.D., the medical experiment project he participated in has been successfully completed, and the operation scheduled by the patient has also been completed. look for him.
But there will be many people looking for him for private matters, and Cheng Yu who came back from a business trip will naturally bear the brunt of it.
Cheng Yu was so anxious that he was about to blow up Tang Haochu's phone, so he turned off his phone, which didn't have much battery left, in just a short while.The second person looking for him was Zheng Ruilin, but Zheng Ruilin seldom called to bother him, and always sent text messages.What do you say when it’s hot and you want to avoid the summer heat and it’s cool, remember to add clothes, send a sentence of good night when it’s dark, and finally add a “go to bed early and don’t go back”.
Then there are the family members - Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan call their younger brother about twice a week, so when Cheng Yu turned off Tang Haochu's cell phone, the two elder brothers who couldn't reach his younger brother couldn't help but start to worry up.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the third night, and Tang Haochu, who hadn't eaten for nearly two days, developed a high fever.His sanity has been extremely depressed, and he no longer cares about anyone or anything, but at this moment he vaguely thinks of Huo Biao.
I remembered Huo Biao's voice.
The voice that coaxed him over and over again all night when he had chickenpox.
The voice of wanting to be with him forever when confessing to him.
Tell him not to treat his voice like you would a stranger, in a clearly pleading tone.
The voice that screamed his name at the last second of the last world.
He suddenly wanted to hear that voice again.
Then he heard it.
When he learned that the people in the room hadn't come out for nearly three days, Zheng Ruilin didn't have time to yell at the hotel staff for being irresponsible, and just wanted to knock open the door immediately or even blast it open with a gun.When the staff finally opened the door with the room card, Zheng Ruilin rushed into the house as quickly as possible.And Tang Haochu was curled up on the sofa outside the suite, almost curling himself into a cocoon, his cheeks were already flushed, and the color fell into Zheng Ruilin's eyes, piercing his eye sockets like a sharp knife.
The short distance of a few meters made Zheng Ruilin feel abnormally long, as if it took a full century to finally reach Tang Haochu. When he arrived, his knees softened, he half-knelt down, and hoarsely called: "Haohao..."
Tang Haochu had already burned so badly that he couldn't even see the face of the person in front of him clearly, he just stared blankly at the direction from which the voice came from.The gloomy but still beautiful eyes lifted slightly, and the feather-like eyelashes drew a moving arc, and then subconsciously shrank himself back into the sofa, trembling like a frightened kitten, wanting to Hide yourself.
Zheng Ruilin forcibly hugged him into his arms.
In fact, Zheng Ruilin was also trembling, his hands were visibly trembling, the backs of his hands were even bulging with blue veins from forcibly restraining his emotions, but his movements were extremely careful, as if he was holding a treasure that was more important than his own life, with an unimaginable tenderness , the voice was even obviously choked: "Good boy, it's okay, don't be afraid, it's okay..."
It was only after Zheng Ruilin picked him up that he realized how light he was, hugged his hot body tightly, and burst into tears for some reason.Hot tears hit Tang Haochu's forehead, and it seemed that two time and space were shattered in a trance. Tang Haochu blinked his eyes in confusion, feeling that the person in front of him seemed to be gradually overlapping with another figure, and his face was leaning against the hidden space. On the chest of the heart, a tear also flowed faintly, which happened to fall on the place closest to the heart of Zheng Ruilin's chest.
It was so hot that Zheng Ruilin curled up with pain in his heart.
Zheng Ruilin sent Tang Haochu directly to the nearest hospital. Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan, who couldn't reach their younger brother and almost called the police, also rushed over from S City and the military area respectively. At the same time, Cheng Yu was also looking for him.
——The Tang family finally knew about Tang Haochu and Cheng Yu.
Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan didn't know about this matter at all before, especially Qi Xiangnan, who only knew that his younger brother had made a lot of travels and efforts for his case, but didn't know what kind of efforts he had made.Over the years, Tang Haochu has kept the secret from his family very tightly. He only said that he wanted to move out of the school for the convenience of doing experiments. The money for a villa, but completely unaware that his younger brother is living with a man.
As a result, the task progress of 'Domineering' has jumped from 20.00% to 60.00%.The highest scorers in this task are close family members or lovers, because only close family members or lovers will have a long-term and embarrassing strong reaction to his decision made without consultation.Naturally, Tang Zhenkai's reaction was unusual, and Qi Xiangnan even wanted to kill someone, but what he wanted to kill was not Cheng Yu but himself.
However, Zheng Ruilin just asked the doctor about Tang Haochu's condition, and the test results could not be released for a while. Now he only knows that he has a severe fever, so he can only get over the fever first, and then look at other conditions.
Just the four words of burning badly are enough to make Zheng Ruilin tremble with fear.
During the injection, Tang Haochu suddenly waved his hands uneasily like in a nightmare to prevent anyone from touching him. Zheng Ruilin, who was still talking to the doctor at the door, strode over to support him, and then held him tightly in his arms.But Tang Haochu's body was still unbelievably tense, and his teeth were clenched. Zheng Ruilin was even worried that he would bite his own tongue.
Tang Haochu didn't wake up, so he couldn't hear Zheng Ruilin's words at all. Zheng Ruilin knew this, and still hugged him and coaxed him over and over again, until he finally relaxed a little and was no longer so tense.
Zheng Ruilin stayed with him in the ward all night, quietly watching Tang Haochu's sleeping face, fetching water to wash his face and hands himself.His breathing was very shallow, as if it didn't exist, and the quilt covering his body seemed to have no ups and downs, but when he took his hand, he knew that his body was still very stiff, and he never really relaxed.
When it was dawn, Tang Haochu seemed to wake up.
Zheng Ruilin, who came back from smoking outside, heard the movement and hurried forward, only to see Tang Haochu sitting blankly, wondering what he was thinking.The light was always on in the ward, just because he was afraid that he would feel uneasy when he woke up, Zheng Ruilin tried to slow down his pace as much as possible, and said softly: "Haohao, how do you feel?"
Tang Haochu's reaction was very slow, he only looked at Zheng Ruilin silently, with a dazed and ignorant expression.After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's cold."
The eye sockets were flushed with fever, as if crying, and repeated, "I'm cold."
Zheng Ruilin's heart throbbed in an instant.
It turns out that when I feel distressed, I feel severe pain in every part of my body.
The wide palm wrapped the cold hand, Zheng Ruilin only felt that the temperature was as low as a piece of ice, and hugged him tightly to warm him up.Tang Haochu was pressed on his chest by Zheng Ruilin, and his whole body was wrapped up, like hiding in a high city, outside was full of violent storms, there was nowhere to hide, only here was warm and safe, there was nothing to worry about.
Those eyes were warm and clear, like a peaceful lake reflecting the sky, or a bright and high starry sky, completely ignoring their ambiguous lying posture before.
She couldn't help clenching her fists tightly, her expression was even slightly distorted, and Cheng Yu finally stood up with Lin Feng's help, and then grabbed Tang Haochu's hand and called out, "Haochu..."
There was an indescribable uneasiness in my heart, and the handsome face was full of anxiety, but my drunken brain didn't know what to say or do, so I just apologized subconsciously: "I'm sorry, don't be angry..."
The people around were slightly taken aback when they heard it.The Cheng family has been ranked among the top three in the country's richest list for so many years. As the only son, Cheng Yu is completely the pride of heaven. My friends are used to holding him up, let alone hearing him apologize, so it feels fresh to hear him apologize first without saying a word.
Seeing that Cheng Yu still looked nervous for fear that Tang Haochu would not accept his apology, he held Tang Haochu's hand very tightly, and it felt even fresher.Fortunately, Tang Haochu did not shake Cheng Yu's hand away, and only asked softly, "Do you want to go back?"
The answer is of course yes, Cheng Yu nodded hastily, just like a dog that finally waited for the master to come to him, he raised his foot and followed Tang Haochu, and he fell down after only one step.
——He was completely drunk. Excessive alcohol caused insufficient blood supply to the brain, and his body was so exhausted that he fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up again, it was already the next day.
It had just rained in the morning, and the weather outside was a bit cloudy, but very comfortable and pleasant.The wind blows in from the window, like a gentle hand brushing over the cheeks, the air is soaked in rain and is moist and fresh, as if fish are swimming in and out of the doors and windows freely.Begonias in the garden bloomed the last wave of flowers at the end of spring, and jasmine bloomed the first wave of flowers, and the fragrance of flowers could be smelled in the bedroom.In addition, he could faintly smell the fragrant and tempting porridge from the kitchen——all these made Cheng Yu, who had just woken up, fall into a peaceful and peaceful trance.
After being in a trance for a while, he came back to his senses, raised his hand and rubbed his temples.The hangover was the worst, but Cheng Yu didn't feel as bad as he imagined, he just felt a little dizzy.It was only when he looked down and saw the needle holes at the knuckles that he realized the reason for his discomfort. Tang Haochu had obviously given him acupuncture.
He immediately went to find Tang Haochu, tried his best to get up from the bed, walked to the door of the living room, and saw the young man standing in front of Haitang in the garden at a glance.The young man is concentrating on pruning the ruined crabapple after the rain, with his head slightly lowered, and his slender hands are carefully handling the rich residual red. His side face and posture are extremely beautiful, and the vast and boundless sky behind him has become his background.
Cheng Yu stood there silently watching for a long time, until Tang Haochu noticed him, put down the flowers and came over.
The porridge in the casserole was almost cooked, Tang Haochu immediately went to the kitchen to watch the pot adjust the fire, and fried the side dishes that had been cut before.The smell of food in the house and the young people's busy backs gave Cheng Yu a feeling of peace of mind. Even though he was only [-] years old, he felt that this life was enough, and that there would never be a happier and more peaceful life than this, even if it was always If you can't take the last step of physical and mental unity with the other party, you have to cling to him and live with him for the rest of your life.
The porridge was served quickly, because I wanted to eat something light after a hangover, so it was just white porridge with dates added, but it was very fragrant and smooth, and several dishes were also appetizing.Tang Haochu put the porridge bowl away and asked, "Do you have a headache?"
"It doesn't hurt. Acupuncture is very useful." Cheng Yu paused and then said, "I'm only a little dizzy, but I've gotten used to it a long time ago."
Tang Haochu blinked his eyes in confusion when he heard the words. He obviously didn't understand Cheng Yu's meaning. Cheng Yu resisted the thought of reaching out to kiss his eyelashes and said, "I couldn't help but faint when I saw you. Of course I have fainted for so many years. got used to."
In recent years, Cheng Yu has often made such love talk or even nasty talk, and if he was a different person, he would probably get used to it, but with such a restrained and pure personality as a young man, it seems that he will never be able to get used to it, and he will always cover up excuses to busy himself with other things, and even The tips of his ears would turn red slightly because of those nasty words, making Cheng Yu feel pain and love in his heart.But Tang Haochu was not busy with other things this time and did not have red ears, but suddenly raised his head and said, "What about Miss Bai?"
The girl in the white dress yesterday was named Bai.Cheng Yu was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously explained: "She and I are just ordinary friends."
After explaining, I realized something was wrong: "How do you know her surname is Bai?"
Tang Haochu didn't answer, but lowered his eyes and said, "Let's eat."
Cheng Yu ate his meal with relish on the surface, but he couldn't help becoming nervous in his heart.He has a lot of male friends and female friends, and Tang Haochu has never asked about it for so many years, and Tang Haochu will mention Miss Bai is definitely not jealous. After getting along for so long, he knows that Tang Haochu is not the kind of person who will be jealous, whether he likes you or not. I don't even like you.Some trivial matters that others cannot tolerate are not important to him. If it involves a matter of principle, he will simply leave directly, and will not waste time on meaningless things such as jealousy or quarrels.
I don't know whether it's a guilty conscience or fear of Tang Haochu's misunderstanding, Cheng Yu couldn't help explaining a few more words: "Bai Lingqing only came to Beijing to go to school the year before last——that's the 'Miss Bai' you just mentioned. Her family is not here, because her mother and I Mom is an old classmate, so she stays at my house temporarily, my mom likes her very much, but I have nothing to do with her..."
In fact, Tang Haochu already knew Bai Lingqing's full name - Tang Haochu received an email from the other party after returning home last night.Attached are two very clear photos. In the photo, Cheng Yu was shopping with her in a jewelry store, picking out a necklace that was obviously a woman's necklace. In the other photo, they were still holding hands.
Tang Haochu was indeed not jealous, and he didn't take emails seriously, but he received the second and third emails in just one month, and the photos in them became more intimate each time.
During this period of time, Tang Haochu, who was so busy going back and forth between the medical experiment project and the doctoral graduation defense, still didn't take it seriously. He only thought that Miss Bai was indeed beautiful, but this shortcoming of wanting to show off or demonstrate should be blamed. Change it.What really made him face up to this matter was a phone call——probably because the email didn't get the desired effect, Bai Lingqing actually called.
Tang Haochu had just arrived in Germany when he received the call, and was about to attend a very famous international medical forum. It was a bit strange to see an unfamiliar number on the caller ID, because he knew that the people who called him were all acquaintances.Tang Haochu hesitated for a while before answering the phone, and heard a nice female voice: "Hello, is this Mr. Tang Haochu?"
The voice was very gentle, but there was an indescribable arrogance. Tang Haochu had vaguely guessed the other party's identity and purpose, and said, "Yes."
Normal people would often ask 'Who are you' in this situation, but Tang Haochu said nothing, so Bai Lingqing had no choice but to introduce himself: "I am Bai Lingqing."
"Oh."
There was no more words after another word, and the tone did not show any surprise, which made Bai Lingqing feel unspeakable frustration again.She bit the bullet and insisted on finishing the sentence: "I'm with Cheng Yu....I," she paused, "so I think it's better for us to meet. At seven o'clock in the evening, Swan Castle Coffee hall……"
Tang Haochu interrupted Bai Lingqing, "I'm in Munich."
Bai Lingqing was taken aback for a moment, and his tone was suspicious: "Now?"
"If you don't believe me, you can watch the broadcast on TV or online, and I will speak on stage. This forum is a well-known event in the medical field, and it will be broadcast in many countries."
Compared to Bai Lingqing's unfounded pride, Tang Haochu was truly worthy of pride, but his tone was very ordinary, as if speaking on behalf of the entire country was just a trivial matter.He seemed to be already busy there——some German was faintly heard, he was talking to Tang Haochu, Tang Haochu immediately replied in German, with a standard and fluent pronunciation.
Listening to the voice on the receiver, Bai Lingqing felt as if he and himself were not in the same world at all, and the difference was already obvious without meeting each other.Just like the Swan Castle coffee shop she mentioned just now, the most expensive coffee in it is as high as thousands, which is the most high-end place she can think of, but it is only called Swan Castle after all, not the real Swan Castle, the real Swan Castle. Swan Castle happened to be in Munich where Tang Haochu was at the moment.
"Let's change it to Sunday night." Tang Haochu turned back to the microphone after talking to the person next to him, "I'm going back to China on Saturday, but there is still an operation to be done right after. The patient made an appointment half a year ago and cannot reschedule. Only after the surgery can I find time."
When Tang Haochu returned to China on Saturday, Cheng Yu picked up the plane in person. Even though the plane was delayed for several hours, he still waited patiently without getting bored. He also brought Tang Haochu's favorite desserts and beautiful roses.However, Tang Haochu keenly smelled the faint scent of perfume on his body, which was obviously a lady's perfume.
Tang Haochu did not go back with Cheng Yu, but went to see the patient who was going to have surgery the next day.
The temperature in midsummer is very high, making people anxious and irritable, and the operating room is even more anxious, because the operation situation is much more complicated than expected.But Tang Haochu finally completed the operation calmly, but the operation time was much longer than expected.
So when Tang Hao first arrived at the coffee shop, he was almost an hour late.
He was not in a hurry, because he knew that Bai Lingqing would continue to wait no matter how late, but he thought that the other party would ask for a box or something, but before he even entered the door, he saw the other party sitting in the most conspicuous place in the hall.
When Bai Lingqing saw Tang Haochu, she immediately smiled politely at him, but Tang Haochu didn't have the time to respond to her smile, but instead called the lobby manager and asked him to prepare a private room.The lobby manager immediately nodded respectfully, and quickly ran over to make arrangements. Tang Haochu then walked towards Bai Lingqing. As he approached, he smelled the perfume on the other party, which was exactly the same as what he had smelled on Cheng Yu before.
But he didn't show any expression on his face, he just said softly: "I want a private room, let's talk there."
The consumption here is already high enough, and the consumption in the private room is self-evident. Bai Lingqing couldn't help hesitating for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Just talk here, it doesn't need to be so troublesome."
Tang Haochu glanced at her as soon as she finished speaking,——I didn't know how to describe that look, but she had a faint illusion that the other party was looking at a fool or suspecting that she had a problem with IQ. After reading it, she slowly said: "Since you and Cheng Yu is together, don't you know the situation of the Cheng family?"
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment, and then Tang Haochu continued speaking slowly: "The Cheng family has always attracted the attention of the public and the media, but now it is still connected with the Yang family. There are videos of people coming and going in the hall, and someone passing by heard it for a while, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Bai Lingqing's stupefaction became more obvious, and it never occurred to Tang Haochu that she could easily guess that she had brought the recording and video.Obviously Tang Haochu's tone was gentle and flat, he was just stating the facts, without any harshness or irony, but in Bai Lingqing's ears, it seemed that he was harshness or irony: "These consequences don't matter to me, and the academic world doesn't value them. Personal affairs, especially in foreign countries, are different in the business world and political circles. Personal image and credibility are very important. This store is of high grade, and it will attract not only celebrities, but also journalists and paparazzi who have nothing to do. Say you just want to make things public? Let everyone know?"
Naturally, Bai Lingqing didn't want to announce it to the public, but he really never thought that he should go to the private room.Although she lives in the Cheng family, the Cheng family's class is still too far away from her, and things like reporters and paparazzi are equally far away from her.Bai Lingqing's face was already blue and white, and he couldn't speak a word. Fortunately, the manager came over at this time - he had already arranged the private room, so he personally came to lead Tang Haochu there.
The environment in the private room is better than that in the lobby. As the top coffee shop in the urban area, all private rooms must be reserved. When ordinary people ask, the answer is always full. Bai Lingqing can't make an appointment even if he wants to, but for Tang Haochu It was just a matter of coming here temporarily to give instructions. In Bai Lingqing's eyes, the lobby manager's respectful attitude made her feel as uncomfortable as the words she heard just now.
She secretly thought in her heart that this might be the life she could live after getting Cheng Yu, thinking that she would enjoy such treatment one day, but she never thought that the money Tang Haochu used was all earned by himself or given by the Tang family. Yes, it never took a single hair of the process.
The manager led the waiter out after serving the coffee, and would not come in rashly until he heard the bell.The door was gently closed, but Bai Lingqing did not speak for a long time.Obviously, he had thought about what he was going to say many times before coming here, but looking at Tang Haochu now, he still felt the unspeakable pressure.
In fact, she had seen Tang Haochu's photos from Cheng Yu a long time ago, and she kept them in Cheng Yu's wallet. One was a standard bareheaded frontal photo torn from the student union ID, and the other was leaning on the sofa in the morning. The sleeping face obviously came from a candid shot.The person in the photo is good-looking enough, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he realizes that the photo is not even half his size.Tang Haochu was still wearing the doctor's gown that he hadn't changed after the operation. The gown was open, and he could see the smoky gray shirt inside, the protruding collarbone and the beautiful sunken neck at the neckline of the shirt. It was as simple as that. He also wears a white coat with an outstanding temperament, which can be distinguished from others at a glance.
Bai Lingqing finally spoke apologetically: "I know I shouldn't take the liberty of disturbing you, but I think we should meet and talk. Actually, I have been with Cheng Yu for a long time, and I think this is very unfair to you. I didn't mean to destroy your relationship, nor did I want you to break up, I know you have been together for many years..."
Her expression was also obviously guilty, but there was no concealment in her eyes: "But I love Cheng Yu very much, more than anyone else, Cheng Yu also likes me, and his parents also like me very much .I can give him a complete family and a pair of children..."
After speaking, she played a recording she brought.
The recording has been edited, but the words in it are indeed from Cheng Yu and his mother.With the level and status of Cheng's group, there is no need for marriage, not to mention the fact that a big tree attracts the wind. Sometimes it may not be a good thing to get too much resources and attention. What the Cheng family should do now is not to grow bigger, but to be more low-key and more stable. Cheng Yu The Yang family he married was powerful enough, so when Cheng Yu came here, the family hoped that he would marry a girl from an ordinary family who was more manipulative, have more children, and live a peaceful life.
Bai Lingqing was obviously a good choice. In the recording, Cheng Yu's mother seemed to have regarded her as the best marriage partner, and asked Cheng Yu's opinion earnestly.Cheng Yu has already turned [-], and this age is regarded as a very late marriage in the eyes of the older generation. Cheng's parents are inevitably a little anxious, perhaps because Cheng's mother's tone is too earnest, and Cheng Yu did not clearly agree or refuse. , but he made a promise that Cheng's mother said that sooner or later she would give birth to a grandson.
The recording stopped right here, but Tang Haochu still didn't respond.He has been concentrating on putting sugar in the coffee, and he has added all the sugar cubes in a can, and then stirs it carefully in the coffee before drinking, and then narrows his eyes in satisfaction because of the sweetness.Seeing this, Bai Lingqing gritted his teeth and threw out the last chip, saying, "I had sex with Cheng Yu, and there is a video."
Tang Haochu finally raised his head and glanced at Bai Lingqing lightly.
Even though she fell into Cheng Yu's arms at the club that night, Tang Haochu didn't pay attention to her at all. Later, he paid attention to the photos in the mailbox. She was a standard beauty with an indescribable sense of familiarity, and a kind that would make men The heart-pounding sweet taste, now sitting here watching, that sweet taste is even stronger.Tang Haochu didn't ask when they had a relationship, nor how she got together with Cheng Yu, but only asked something inexplicable: "How old are you this year?"
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Nineteen."
Tang Haochu remembered that he was nineteen when he was with Cheng Yu.
"You don't need to watch the video, I understand what you mean." Tang Haochu finished the cup of coffee that was extremely sweet to others but tasted great to him, stood up and said seriously: "I will think about it carefully. of."
Bai Lingqing was stunned for a moment again, this time he was really surprised, and hurriedly got up: "I really don't want you to break up, I just want to..."
"Miss Bai," Tang Haochu was almost at the door, but stopped when he heard this, turned to look at Bai Lingqing and said, "Forgive me, although I don't know if you and Cheng Yu are together, and I don't want to look into it." How true is what you said, but as far as the current situation is concerned, if you didn’t send emails and call me to ask me out, I wouldn’t even know you existed.”
Fortunately, Bai Lingqing was not too stupid to understand the implication of these words, and his face immediately turned pale.And Tang Haochu has always respected women—this is a habit he has developed since the last world, so his tone is still gentle at this time: "So, I suggest that you better get the man you want first, Let’s talk to the other party. I’m not saying that it’s not good for you. After all, luck is very important. For example, you met me today. But if you change someone who cares about Cheng Yu as much as you do, or who has an impulsive personality , today is probably the last day in your life that you will feel comfortable and happy. Let’s not talk about those who care about Cheng Yu, just talk about those who are impulsive. That cup of hot coffee from the front end disfigured you, even if you have the ability to make the other party pay the price, your face will never come back."
Without looking at Bai Lingqing's expression, Tang Haochu opened the door and walked out.The slender figure gracefully disappeared outside the door, just like how light ink can draw the most beautiful landscape in the hands of a famous artist, and the plain white on his body can be more beautiful than any fancy clothes.
Tang Haochu started to pack his things when he returned to the villa.
In fact, he is still not sure whether he prefers men or women, but his self-esteem does not allow him to compete with a girl for a man, especially with a girl who is obviously beautiful but does not know why her IQ is so low.It would be fine if Bai Lingqing was pure and kind. When I approached him, I said sincerely that I didn't want you two to break up, but I couldn't help but like Cheng Yu, and I didn't know whether to treat him as a fool or myself.The Cheng family just wanted to keep a low profile and decided to find an ordinary girl who was easy to control and not make trouble as a daughter-in-law, but from taking photos secretly to recording videos to today's performance, she was completely digging her own grave.
"Warning the host, warning the host," the system seemed to have detected Tang Haochu's thoughts, and began to send out a series of prompts: "The task of 'Housekeeper' has only been five and a half years, and there are still nearly two years to complete. Once this task The interruption will start all over again and cannot be accumulated. It is suggested that the host should not give up the mission at this time, and the failure of the mission will face very serious punishment..."
But Tang Haochu didn't stop packing his things, he just asked in his mind: "What punishment?"
"Punishments are generally various diseases, because the original owner of this world suffers from autism, and autistic patients still have difficulty socializing with others after being cured, and it is easy to turn into depression, so..."
"So if the mission fails, I will get depression?"
"Correct."
However, the system did not expect that not only did it not change Tang Haochu's decision at all, but it made Tang Haochu decide to give up this task directly, and he was not even willing to find other people to try.Tang Haochu finally admitted that he didn't have the talent to be a househusband, and finally realized that he didn't love Cheng Yu at all.I originally thought that I could forcefully fall in love after a long time, but the most unforceable thing in this world is love.Seven years is still too long, he was wrong at the beginning, this kind of thing of being together without emotion and purely for the mission is unfair to anyone.He doesn't want everything to be controlled by the system, he would rather accept punishment.
That night Tang Haochu took his luggage and left the villa where he had lived for nearly six years.
Cheng Yu happened to be on a business trip, and he won't be back until tomorrow night. Tang Haochu temporarily stayed in a very private hotel, and planned to buy a ticket to return to S City tomorrow morning, and then work in Tang Family Hospital.
But he didn't expect that he not only failed to buy the ticket, but also lost the strength to walk out of the room.
Tang Haochu originally thought that the punishment for abandoning the mission would not come so quickly, and that depression is nothing, which can be overcome through willpower. However, the system issued the punishment for mission failure in just one day, and the brain's biogenic amines were seriously unbalanced. Unprecedented depression surged, occupying all nerves.
Depression is not divided into early or late stages, only mild and severe. For a normal person, being suddenly controlled by depressed emotions is more painful than developing from mild to severe step by step.Tang Haochu even experienced various symptoms of physical discomfort, such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, sweating and insomnia, especially in the quiet late night and morning, when people have the most time to think, they are easily pulled into a swamp from which they cannot extricate themselves.
Churchill once described depression as a black dog, saying that it would bite people every chance it had, killing countless geniuses.Tang Haochu tried to let himself enter the palace of the brain and immerse himself in the world of learning, but he still couldn't control himself to think about some limitless things, and he was immersed in the mood of world-weariness when he thought about it.He can't concentrate on studying, and he can't even watch movies or listen to music, because as long as it is something that can touch people's emotions, even if it is only a tiny bit, it will turn into a huge wave when it comes to him, swallowing all reason.
The next morning, Tang Haochu managed to pack up his mood all night, and told himself that he had to cheer up today, and stood there for a long time, but he couldn't move for a long time.My mind was empty and buzzing, and I stood still for a long time, not knowing when I came to the window.It seems that there are ghosts whispering outside the window, and a few dead trees are laughing wildly. After careful identification, the sound disappears inch by inch, leaving only distorted shadows.
He began to feel that it was really useless to continue like this.He clearly felt his brain slowing down and his concentration frighteningly distracted, but there was nothing he could do about it.
I don't want to talk, I can't eat, and I can't answer the phone. Fortunately, he has graduated with a Ph.D., the medical experiment project he participated in has been successfully completed, and the operation scheduled by the patient has also been completed. look for him.
But there will be many people looking for him for private matters, and Cheng Yu who came back from a business trip will naturally bear the brunt of it.
Cheng Yu was so anxious that he was about to blow up Tang Haochu's phone, so he turned off his phone, which didn't have much battery left, in just a short while.The second person looking for him was Zheng Ruilin, but Zheng Ruilin seldom called to bother him, and always sent text messages.What do you say when it’s hot and you want to avoid the summer heat and it’s cool, remember to add clothes, send a sentence of good night when it’s dark, and finally add a “go to bed early and don’t go back”.
Then there are the family members - Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan call their younger brother about twice a week, so when Cheng Yu turned off Tang Haochu's cell phone, the two elder brothers who couldn't reach his younger brother couldn't help but start to worry up.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the third night, and Tang Haochu, who hadn't eaten for nearly two days, developed a high fever.His sanity has been extremely depressed, and he no longer cares about anyone or anything, but at this moment he vaguely thinks of Huo Biao.
I remembered Huo Biao's voice.
The voice that coaxed him over and over again all night when he had chickenpox.
The voice of wanting to be with him forever when confessing to him.
Tell him not to treat his voice like you would a stranger, in a clearly pleading tone.
The voice that screamed his name at the last second of the last world.
He suddenly wanted to hear that voice again.
Then he heard it.
When he learned that the people in the room hadn't come out for nearly three days, Zheng Ruilin didn't have time to yell at the hotel staff for being irresponsible, and just wanted to knock open the door immediately or even blast it open with a gun.When the staff finally opened the door with the room card, Zheng Ruilin rushed into the house as quickly as possible.And Tang Haochu was curled up on the sofa outside the suite, almost curling himself into a cocoon, his cheeks were already flushed, and the color fell into Zheng Ruilin's eyes, piercing his eye sockets like a sharp knife.
The short distance of a few meters made Zheng Ruilin feel abnormally long, as if it took a full century to finally reach Tang Haochu. When he arrived, his knees softened, he half-knelt down, and hoarsely called: "Haohao..."
Tang Haochu had already burned so badly that he couldn't even see the face of the person in front of him clearly, he just stared blankly at the direction from which the voice came from.The gloomy but still beautiful eyes lifted slightly, and the feather-like eyelashes drew a moving arc, and then subconsciously shrank himself back into the sofa, trembling like a frightened kitten, wanting to Hide yourself.
Zheng Ruilin forcibly hugged him into his arms.
In fact, Zheng Ruilin was also trembling, his hands were visibly trembling, the backs of his hands were even bulging with blue veins from forcibly restraining his emotions, but his movements were extremely careful, as if he was holding a treasure that was more important than his own life, with an unimaginable tenderness , the voice was even obviously choked: "Good boy, it's okay, don't be afraid, it's okay..."
It was only after Zheng Ruilin picked him up that he realized how light he was, hugged his hot body tightly, and burst into tears for some reason.Hot tears hit Tang Haochu's forehead, and it seemed that two time and space were shattered in a trance. Tang Haochu blinked his eyes in confusion, feeling that the person in front of him seemed to be gradually overlapping with another figure, and his face was leaning against the hidden space. On the chest of the heart, a tear also flowed faintly, which happened to fall on the place closest to the heart of Zheng Ruilin's chest.
It was so hot that Zheng Ruilin curled up with pain in his heart.
Zheng Ruilin sent Tang Haochu directly to the nearest hospital. Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan, who couldn't reach their younger brother and almost called the police, also rushed over from S City and the military area respectively. At the same time, Cheng Yu was also looking for him.
——The Tang family finally knew about Tang Haochu and Cheng Yu.
Tang Zhenkai and Qi Xiangnan didn't know about this matter at all before, especially Qi Xiangnan, who only knew that his younger brother had made a lot of travels and efforts for his case, but didn't know what kind of efforts he had made.Over the years, Tang Haochu has kept the secret from his family very tightly. He only said that he wanted to move out of the school for the convenience of doing experiments. The money for a villa, but completely unaware that his younger brother is living with a man.
As a result, the task progress of 'Domineering' has jumped from 20.00% to 60.00%.The highest scorers in this task are close family members or lovers, because only close family members or lovers will have a long-term and embarrassing strong reaction to his decision made without consultation.Naturally, Tang Zhenkai's reaction was unusual, and Qi Xiangnan even wanted to kill someone, but what he wanted to kill was not Cheng Yu but himself.
However, Zheng Ruilin just asked the doctor about Tang Haochu's condition, and the test results could not be released for a while. Now he only knows that he has a severe fever, so he can only get over the fever first, and then look at other conditions.
Just the four words of burning badly are enough to make Zheng Ruilin tremble with fear.
During the injection, Tang Haochu suddenly waved his hands uneasily like in a nightmare to prevent anyone from touching him. Zheng Ruilin, who was still talking to the doctor at the door, strode over to support him, and then held him tightly in his arms.But Tang Haochu's body was still unbelievably tense, and his teeth were clenched. Zheng Ruilin was even worried that he would bite his own tongue.
Tang Haochu didn't wake up, so he couldn't hear Zheng Ruilin's words at all. Zheng Ruilin knew this, and still hugged him and coaxed him over and over again, until he finally relaxed a little and was no longer so tense.
Zheng Ruilin stayed with him in the ward all night, quietly watching Tang Haochu's sleeping face, fetching water to wash his face and hands himself.His breathing was very shallow, as if it didn't exist, and the quilt covering his body seemed to have no ups and downs, but when he took his hand, he knew that his body was still very stiff, and he never really relaxed.
When it was dawn, Tang Haochu seemed to wake up.
Zheng Ruilin, who came back from smoking outside, heard the movement and hurried forward, only to see Tang Haochu sitting blankly, wondering what he was thinking.The light was always on in the ward, just because he was afraid that he would feel uneasy when he woke up, Zheng Ruilin tried to slow down his pace as much as possible, and said softly: "Haohao, how do you feel?"
Tang Haochu's reaction was very slow, he only looked at Zheng Ruilin silently, with a dazed and ignorant expression.After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's cold."
The eye sockets were flushed with fever, as if crying, and repeated, "I'm cold."
Zheng Ruilin's heart throbbed in an instant.
It turns out that when I feel distressed, I feel severe pain in every part of my body.
The wide palm wrapped the cold hand, Zheng Ruilin only felt that the temperature was as low as a piece of ice, and hugged him tightly to warm him up.Tang Haochu was pressed on his chest by Zheng Ruilin, and his whole body was wrapped up, like hiding in a high city, outside was full of violent storms, there was nowhere to hide, only here was warm and safe, there was nothing to worry about.
