silent age

Bai Sihuan stayed at Lin Heng's place for a few days, and Lin Heng was very busy these days. He didn't see anyone early in the morning, and he didn't come back until late at night.

The gate of the courtyard can only be opened by face recognition, and Bai Sihuan's face data has not been entered, so he can't get out. Now he is like a pet kept in captivity by Lin Heng.

Auntie Cleaning came to do cleaning twice a week, and during the rest of the time, Bai Sihuan was alone in the spacious villa, watching TV, reading books, or listening to music.

When I'm bored, I just sit on a chair on the balcony, facing the scenery outside, and smoke one by one.Before Lin Heng came back, he dumped the cigarette butts to remove the smell of smoke.

Lin Heng came back early today and caught him smoking on the balcony. There were four or five cigarette butts in the ashtray.

Lin Heng's face darkened, his expression was obviously displeased, and he dropped eight words to the smoking man: "Pinch the cigarette, I don't like it."

Bai Sihuan stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, cleaned the cigarette butts in the ashtray, looked slightly flustered, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."

Seeing his disappointed look, Lin Heng realized that he was too cold, and explained clumsily: "I'm not saying I don't like you... I mean, I don't like that smell."

Bai Sihuan walked in after washing the ashtray on the balcony: "I also smell that way."

"..." Lin Heng said, "You have to argue with me?"

Bai Sihuan found that they were all misinterpreting each other's meaning, and the more they explained, the more confused they became.Her lips parted, and she simply said, "I'm going to take a shower."

He walked towards the bathroom, and just two steps away, Lin Heng grabbed his arm with vague anger and pushed him onto the sofa.

Bai Sihuan collapsed on the sofa, looking at Lin Heng inexplicably.

Lin Heng leaned on him, stroked his slender neck with his hands, lifted his chin, and immediately bit his neck.

Bai Sihuan hissed in pain, but did not resist.It seemed that he expected such a thing to happen, and he seemed to be used to Lin Heng's behavior.

"Lin Heng..." Bai Sihuan's voice was slightly hoarse, and he subconsciously hugged his back, his body turned pink in the rapidly fermenting emotion.

Lin Heng kissed his lips, reached into Bai Sihuan's clothes, and swam over his skin, the emotions that had been suppressed since that night erupted at this moment.

The next day, Bai Sihuan was woken up by the glare of the sun, he touched the seat beside the bed, it was empty.

He opened his eyes, looked around the huge room, and saw Lin Heng sitting at the desk and looking at the computer.

Bai Sihuan got up, grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, and got off the bed with bare feet.

Lin Heng raised his eyes and asked, "Are you awake?"

Bai Sihuan nodded: "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing, some business stuff." Lin Heng swam his eyes over Bai Sihuan, closed the computer, got up and walked towards him.

"You didn't go out today?" After Bai Sihuan asked this sentence, Lin Heng put his arms around his waist.

Lin Heng kissed Bai Sihuan on the forehead: "I'm not going out today, I'll stay at home with you. Or is there somewhere you want to go?"

Being hugged and kissed, Bai Sihuan felt inexplicably shy, grabbed Lin Heng's clothes and said, "I've been at home for many days, and I want to go out for a walk."

"Okay, then I'll go for a walk with you after breakfast."

Bai Sihuan smiled happily, put on his clothes and went to wash up.When he came out after washing, Lin Heng was taking the prepared western breakfast to the table on the balcony, calling him over to have breakfast.

They sat on the balcony enjoying the sunshine and looking at the lake view. While having breakfast, they chatted about the interesting things they had experienced.It seems that they are deliberately avoiding the past, avoiding those past events that make each other sad.

After breakfast, Bai Sihuan put on his overcoat and went out with Lin Heng. Lin Heng was afraid that he would be cold, so he took off his scarf and wrapped it around his neck.

Bai Sihuan buried the lower half of his face in the scarf, sniffing Lin Heng's breath, his cheeks felt slightly hot.

When the red light on the sidewalk changed to green, Lin Heng ignored the eyes of others, and naturally took his hand to cross the road, and then never let go.

When they came to Lake Park, they walked aimlessly by the lake.

Looking at the lake water, Bai Sihuan sighed: "Time flies so fast, the last time we came here together..." Suddenly the words stopped and he didn't continue.

It's been a long time since I came here with Lin Heng last time.At that time, Bai Sihuan was still an illegitimate child with a foreign surname that was not liked in the Lin family, Lin Heng was the most favored young master in the family, his pet dog was still alive at that time, Lin Xianyan would still throw eyes and bicker with Lin Heng every day, Lin Siying would occasionally take them out to play when she came home.

Now, now there is nothing left.People turn into dust when they walk away, leaving behind beyond recognition.

Standing beside him, the once willful and ignorant young master overcame all obstacles in the business world, and finally became a mature and stern man who could take care of everything by himself.

I don't want to talk about the past, but I have to talk about the past.

"I know that I was very ignorant before, and I often hurt you and made you sad. You didn't say anything, and I didn't understand anything. Just like that, mistakes piled up and kept making mistakes." Lin Heng clasped Bai Sihuan's hands tightly. Hands, words that were difficult to speak in the past, can now be spoken calmly.

"..." Bai Sihuan let him hold his hand tighter and tighter, but didn't respond to anything.

Lin Heng stopped suddenly, looking at Bai Sihuan's face: "I have become what you want, and now I still want you to stay by my side. Are you willing?"

The lingering breeze seemed to be waiting for Bai Sihuan's reply. After a moment of silence, Bai Sihuan said, "I'm sorry for what I said to you that day. I shouldn't blame you for all my mistakes."

He spoke so seriously, he just hoped that Lin Heng would not interfere with him and live his own life well, but he never hoped that Lin Heng would embark on this road like him.Lin Heng today is not what he expected.

"Let's let go of all this." Bai Sihuan looked at him, and smiled hopefully, "Let's all let go of everything, go to a farther place, any small county is fine, and start over."

"..." Lin Heng fell silent this time.

Restart.

How easy it is to say four words, but how can it be really so easy?

No one knows how difficult it is for Lin Heng to get to where he is today.When I was the most desolate, I starved for several days and did the hardest work. When I was used by others, I was beaten to death when I resisted.In order to get the support of capable people, he risked his life to do things for others, and when he gradually became a leader, he was also looked down upon.

He climbed up step by step in the dark muddy ground, personally broke his proud wings, cut off the edges and corners of his body with a blunt rusty knife, and took countless risks to get to where he is today.

Letting go of everything and starting over is easier said than done.

An ordinary life is simply a luxury for people like them.

Lin Heng did not give Bai Sihuan an answer in the end, but his silence answered everything.

Gradually letting go of Bai Sihuan's hand, Lin Heng walked ahead, thinking about something alone.

The palms that had lost their warmth grasped the air, watching his back as he walked forward, Bai Sihuan suddenly felt a little lonely.

This morning, until they got home, they didn't say a word to each other.

In the afternoon when Lin Heng went out, Bai Sihuan lay on the balcony table in a daze, watching the bright sky gradually turn red, and then gradually darken.

It was almost dinner time, and Lin Heng came back.The moment the door was opened, Bai Sihuan quickly stood up from the chair, looked at Lin Heng who had just entered the house, his lips moved, and wanted to say "Welcome back".

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Lin Heng curled his mouth and smiled: "I figured it out. Let's go, tomorrow. I don't think anything is important, as long as I can be with you."

Bai Sihuan was taken aback for a moment, then realized Lin Heng's words after a while, and asked blankly, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I'm useless." Lin Heng shrugged, "I can't stand you not talking to me when you're by my side, I can't stand life without you by my side."

After being stunned for a while, Bai Sihuan laughed, tears came out of the laughter, he ran over to hug Lin Heng, and lay on Lin Heng's shoulder, the tears kept flowing, as if he couldn't stop.

He really wanted to cry a lot, and who knew what he was crying about, something that was obviously worthy of joy.

They were all in the joy of "starting over" that night.They discussed how life could be in the future, and which place had a better and more comfortable environment.

Bai Sihuan said that he wanted a place with a university, but he didn't finish the book and wanted to continue studying.

After confirming the place and booking two tickets, we simply packed up our luggage and waited for tomorrow.The future seems to be really dull and beautiful.

Early the next morning, Lin Heng said that he was going out to do one last thing, and asked Bai Sihuan to wait for him at home.

Arriving at Ouxuan Hotel at nine o'clock, Lin Heng called Bai Sihuan, but Bai Sihuan didn't answer, and Lin Heng left a voice message: I'm at Ouxuan Hotel now, and I'll go back after finishing the matter in hand.Go to the station in the afternoon, leave at night, and wait for me at home.

Maybe it was because he thought that he and Bai Sihuan were going to meet a new life soon, after the voice came out, Lin Heng showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.

An hour passed, and the people waiting for Lin Heng hadn't come yet.

Looking at the time, Lin Heng took out his cell phone and was about to make a call when the cell phone rang and the caller was Jiang Yijue.

Lin Heng paused and picked up the phone.

Jiang Yijue said on the other end of the phone: "Lin Heng, take a look at the window on the other side of the hotel gate."

Lin Heng frowned slightly, and walked to the window to look out.There are police cars parked downstairs in the hotel, and there are policemen at the door.

"The person you're waiting for won't come." Jiang Yijue sneered triumphantly, "I have handed over all the evidence of Jiang Ningyou's tax evasion to the public security department. You have such a close relationship with her, you must not be able to separate the relationship."

Lin Heng clenched the phone tightly, his face darkened, and his voice was low: "How did you get it?"

Jiang Yijue sneered and said: "I admit that you are very smart, but you are too emotional and easily deceived by the person you love. Are you happy these few days with Sihuan? You really have no defense against him and trust him completely ah."

Lin Heng's heart twitched suddenly, and he thought of the name, Bai Sihuan.

Even though he didn't want to believe it anymore, the facts must be told, Bai Sihuan betrayed him.

This has always been a situation. It was Jiang Yijue who deliberately asked Bai Sihuan to come back to him, and then obtained evidence from him that Jiang Ningyou broke the law.

Lin Heng hung up the phone angrily, thinking to himself, there is a back staircase leading to the small door in the hotel.

Pushing open the door of the box, Lin Heng was stunned.

Several familiar men stood at the door.The leading man with gray temples is Lao Pei, the old butler of the Lin family.

Old Pei still had the attitude of a competent butler, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Young master, sir, please go home. We will deal with the police, now please go back with us."

Lin Heng completely froze in place, with the police in front and Lin Huan in the back, he had no way to escape.

Who drove him into this situation?

Staggering his eyes from these people, Lin Heng fixed his eyes on the expressionless man behind the crowd: "Bai Sihuan..."

Bai Sihuan, who was standing behind the crowd, blinked, looked away, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

Lin Heng stared at Bai Sihuan's face, gritted his teeth, and said, "I never thought you would betray me." His eyelashes trembled, and a tear hung on his eyelashes, "Never."

"I'm sorry." Bai Sihuan apologized again, his face still expressionless, "You will be the safest only when you are with Dad."

Lin Heng was watched by too many people, no matter where he went, those people Lin Heng offended, including Jiang Yijue and Lin Huan, would find him.

Among these people, only Lin Huan would protect him well, because Lin Huan wanted what Cheng Sutang left for Lin Heng, and if he didn't get it for a day, he would not hurt Lin Heng, nor would anyone hurt Lin Heng.

"I don't care if you protect me in this way!" Lin Heng's roar shocked everyone present.He broke through the crowd, rushed up and grabbed Bai Sihuan's collar, with pain like bleeding in his chest, he asked ferociously, "What do you let go of everything, what do you start again, you lied to me! You lied to me! You are just... I just want to see me like this, I just want to see me in such a mess! Do you think it’s silly for me to listen to your words and look forward to a future with you? You think it’s foolish to fool me around and hurt me severely It feels very comfortable, doesn’t it! Are you proud of me now? Are you proud of me!”

Excited, Lin Heng pushed Bai Sihuan away fiercely, but the moment Bai Sihuan's thin body fell to the ground, his already scarred heart felt extremely painful again.

Holding his tear-stained face in his hands, he took a breath that made his heart twitch.He felt that he really deserved it.Even at this time, he still feels pain because of Bai Sihuan's pain, and still can't say a word "hate".

He deserved to be hated by Bai Sihuan, deserved to be deceived by Bai Sihuan, deserved to be trampled on in such a mess!Everything is his own fault, in the past and now, everything is his own fault!

Without the strength of hysteria, Lin Heng could only choke up and read over and over again: "You are a liar, you are a liar..."

The dream of having a bright future with him was shattered at this moment.

He cried, heartbreakingly, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.But who would know that Bai Sihuan is his whole world.

"I'm sorry." Bai Sihuan sat on the ground like a puppet with broken strings, his head was lowered tightly, his eyes lost their expression, and he could only murmur "I'm sorry".
