silent age

Bai Sihuan rinsed his scalded skin with cold water for more than ten minutes before the burning pain subsided.

Lin Xianyan applied ointment on him, and took him to the hospital for an injection.

Lin Xianyan and Bai Sihuan have a feeling of sympathy and sympathy for each other. As Cheng Sutang's second daughter, Lin Xianyan has not received much care from her mother since she was a child. study.

Lin Xianyan always felt that she was the bottom of the family, until Bai Sihuan appeared, she felt that there was someone of the same kind beside her.

Because of Cheng Sutang's warning, Lin Xianyan seldom had contact with Bai Sihuan. After this resistance, Lin Xianyan opened up to Bai Sihuan: "Actually, I don't want to listen to her at all, but if I don't listen to her, she will be like a Just as the elder sister kicked me out, she also kicked me out."

"But this time..." Bai Sihuan lowered his head, the redness on his face was unknown from the burn or from guilt.

Lin Xianyan smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't always bow your head so easily!" She held the medicine for Bai Sihuan in her hand, handed it to Bai Sihuan, and muttered in a low voice: "Anyway, I can't listen to her forever .”

She walked in front, and she seemed to say something to her, but also to herself: "Brother is the one who protects himself well, and Ah Heng is the one who is well protected by mother, but we are different. It's..."

The burns on his body broke out at night, and Bai Sihuan couldn't sleep due to the pain.The door opened with a creak, and Lin Heng walked in with a tube of ointment.

Bai Sihuan immediately pulled the quilt over his head, endured the pain and hid in the airtight quilt.

Lin Heng didn't care whether he was really sleeping or pretending to be sleeping, he came up and pulled off his quilt and pulled his collar.

Bai Sihuan clutched his collar tightly, refusing to let him take a look.

Lin Heng ordered with a calm face: "Release your hand."

Bai Sihuan huddled into a ball and refused to move.

"Release!" Lin Heng became furious, and tore his already worn-out clothes with force.

A large area of ​​red skin and half of his swollen face were exposed to the air. Bai Sihuan's eyes were red, biting his trembling lips, and for the first time dared to look Lin Heng squarely.

There was a hint of hatred, humiliation, and moving pity in the tearful eyes.

Lin Heng was dazed for a moment, but he was at a loss: "I just gave you a medicine..."

Bai Sihuan sniffed, shed tears, let him manipulate him, and remained still as if giving up resistance.

Lin Heng squeezed half a tube of ointment, and gently rubbed his fingers over his half-cooked skin, his voice softened a lot: "Does it still hurt?"

Even though he was sweating from the pain, Bai Sihuan shook his head.

Lin Heng held his face in his hands, applied medicine to the burnt half of his face, and helped him wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.He murmured in a low voice as if to blame: "Pull her away and you will pull her away, and you have to go up by yourself?"

Bai Sihuan's eyes turned red again.

Lin Heng quickly said: "I'll just say it casually, don't...don't cry again."

Bai Sihuan actually didn't want to cry because of his reproach-like words, but because he touched a painful place, and the pain made him cry.But Lin Heng never noticed where his pain was and where he touched him.

After applying the medicine to Bai Sihuan, Lin Heng shifted his gaze to his calf. The wound bitten by Karen has been treated, and the wound is covered under the gauze, faintly showing the color of the medicine.

Lin Heng touched his calf, eyes drooping: "Here, does it still hurt?"

This time Bai Sihuan didn't respond.Speaking of pain, the injury on the calf is definitely not as painful as the burn on the body, but the trauma left in the heart is far higher than that cup of boiling coffee.

Lin Heng explained anxiously: "I didn't know that Karen would bite so hard, it has never bitten anyone before."

Bai Sihuan didn't look like he wanted to hear his explanation, and he knew very well that his defense was clumsy.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Heng said: "Go to sleep well, call the servant if you need anything in the middle of the night."

Seeing Lin Heng turn around to leave, Bai Sihuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, Lin Heng turned back before he finally let go.

"Forget it, I'd better sleep with you, if you have something to do at night, just call me."

The moment Lin Heng got into bed, Bai Sihuan turned his head to the side and closed his eyes helplessly.

Lin Heng's move was obviously mentally handicapped, because he habitually hugged Bai Sihuan in the middle of the night, and hurt Bai Sihuan several times.After a night of tossing around, the sky will dawn, because of him, Bai Sihuan didn't sleep well all night.

Shanghai's climate changes greatly, and in autumn, the hot and cold air alternates, changing constantly and disorderly.Lin Heng is a noble young master, the weather was cold today, he wore less clothes, his face was pale and his lips were purple all morning.

When eating at noon, Bai Sihuan saw his thin clothes, so he immediately took off the scarf around his neck and put it on for him.

Lin Heng hesitated for a long time before taking his scarf. While cursing "the soil is dead", he tied the scarf around his neck, and suddenly chuckled. I don't know if he was laughing at himself for wearing such a thing, or because of something else s reason.

One week before the self-enrollment exam for key high schools, Bai Sihuan's injuries were all healed.After intensively reviewing for a week, Bai Sihuan followed the principal's advice and went to take the exam.

A month later, the results were released, and Bai Sihuan was among the top ten in the city. He could skip a grade and enter the school. The tuition fee was waived and a scholarship was added.

The principal was so happy that he couldn't speak, the whole school announced his praise, and made several phone calls to his parents, including Bai Ying, the first guardian that Bai Sihuan had filled out at the beginning.

After hearing the news, the female classmate Lin Heng brought home specially came to Bai Sihuan's class to congratulate him, and asked how his injury was last time.

Bai Sihuan smiled politely and told her it was all right.

After that, the female classmate came to him for three days in a row, each time because of different things.At one moment, it was asking him to borrow textbooks, at another moment, he was asking him to help him as much as he could, and at another moment, he was asking him to take a look at a kitten that was injured.

Lin Heng caught some wind shadows, and personally went to Bai Sihuan's class to issue a warning: "You'd better stay away from her, and let me see you together next time, you are dead."

Bai Sihuan was frightened by his never-before-serious seriousness. He thought Lin Heng was jealous, and he didn't have time to explain to Lin Heng that he had no intention of robbing his girlfriend.

The female classmate did not come to him for two days, but on the sixth day, the female classmate came again and dragged him to the playground, saying that there was something important to tell him.

Bai Sihuan was reluctantly dragged to the playground by her, and the moment he stepped on the track, he heard a boy behind him shouting loudly: "Did you see, I said that this kid wants to poach your corner, I have seen it More than once!"

As soon as Bai Sihuan turned his head, Lin Heng rushed up and threw him on the track, pouring his uncontrollable anger and fists on his body and face.

I don't know how long the beating took, but the male classmate came up and pulled him away: "Okay, stop beating! You're already bleeding! It's alright, alright! There are so many people watching!"

Bai Sihuan clutched his stomach that had been punched several times by him, stood up slowly from the ground, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.He squinted his swollen eyes, and saw that the blocked Lin Heng's eyes were scarlet and fierce, and his expression seemed to say: I warned you a long time ago.

Everyone stood far away to watch the play, and no one dared to come up to help Bai Sihuan.

The female classmate took Lin Heng's hand triumphantly, and said humbly: "You obviously care about me so much, why did you neglect me in the first place?"

"Get out!" Lin Heng pushed her away viciously, turned around and left.

The fact that Bai Sihuan was beaten by Lin Heng in the playground reached the headmaster's ears within a few minutes.After Bai Sihuan came out of the infirmary, the principal invited him to drink tea again, and tried to persuade him: "You two are brothers, there is nothing we can't talk about, I know this has wronged you, I will see if I can, can I let him Talk to him with your head teacher." After a moment of silence, he said to Bai Sihuan, "The person in charge of that school will come to sign a contract with you guys next week, so you must go and read it."

After school that day, Bai Sihuan went home without eating, and hid directly in his room.

At night, Lin Heng wanted to open the door to come in, but found that Bai Sihuan had locked the door of the room. He turned it twice and did not open it. He knocked on the door and waited for Bai Sihuan's response.

Bai Sihuan pretended to be asleep and ignored him.Finally, there was a loud "bang" knock on the door, and the sound of Lin Heng's leaving footsteps resounded through the corridor outside the house.

The next afternoon, Bai Sihuan still didn't go out, he huddled in a corner without turning on the light, his black figure was reflected on the thick curtains soaked in sunlight.Such a dark and quiet corner is his protective shield, and it is the safest place in his life.

Lin Heng's footsteps sounded impatiently in the corridor, slowly approaching, and the knock on the door was loud and irritable: "Do you want to starve to death inside? Come out!"

"Bai Sihuan, don't think that I don't have the key to your door! If you let me open the door, you...you..."

He "you" for a while, but without "you", Bai Sihuan heard him take a deep breath, and turned away from here.

Bai Sihuan hid in the house for a day and a half. He didn't eat for a day and a half, he only drank water, and when he moved his arms, his head became dizzy, and his body felt light, as if he was about to fly.

The phone rang, and when he saw the familiar number on the black and white screen, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he answered the phone with trembling hands.

"Hey, Sihuan, I'm here...waiting for you outside, outside the Lin family. I'll take you home, come out quickly!"

Early in the morning, before dawn, Bai Ying rode that Phoenix brand bicycle from the alley to the outside of Sandalwood Palace, intending to take her son back.

He was admitted to a key high school in the city, and she didn't have to bear the tuition fees for three years. She also earned a scholarship. This sensible and promising son, she wants to go back.

So she didn't ask Lin Huan, and picked a day when Lin and his wife were not around to come and secretly take away her son.

Bai Sihuan tidied his hair, stuffed the few old clothes he had into his backpack, and ran downstairs with the bag on his back.

The moment the door of his room was just opened, Lin Heng stood up from the sofa. Seeing Bai Sihuan coming down the stairs, he cleaned up his expression of surprise and joy, and said half-awkwardly: "You came out? You... the table There is still food on the table, you go first... What are you doing with your backpack on your back?"

Lin Heng realized something was wrong, and stopped in front of Bai Sihuan: "Where do you want to go?"

Bai Sihuan pushed his hand away and said, "I'm leaving."

Lin Heng thought he was losing his temper, and said with a cold snort, "Go? Where are you going? What place do you think this is? You can come and go whenever you want?"

"My mother came to take me home."

Lin Heng was taken aback for a moment, and his tone hardened: "What home are you going back to? This is your home, and your surname is Lin and not Bai!"

Bai Sihuan didn't know what to say to him, so he pointed to the outside and said, "My mother, my mother is still waiting for me outside."

"I told you not to leave!" Lin Heng stretched out his hand to grab Bai Sihuan's arm, but when he missed it, he shouted anxiously, "Brother!"

The man had passed through the hall, opened the door and ran away.
