die by your hands

Li Lang's visit to Bai Wei's residence was the third day after Bai Wei moved into his new residence.This was the first time An Tianming knew of Li Lang's existence.

After An Tianming reunited with Bai Wei, he cared about the latter's friendship.He didn't dare to interfere too much, for fear of causing Bai Wei's resentment, but An Tianming actually hoped that Bai Wei would have some friends, because he knew that Bai Wei was the kind of person who needed friends to accompany and support him.After taking Bai Wei back to their former residence, An Tianming noticed that Bai Wei hardly had any social activities.At that time, Bai Wei explained to An Tianming that since he lost his memory in a car accident, he no longer remembered his friends.He said it as if it was all his fault, which made An Tianming's heart ache.He knew why Bai Wei had no friends.This didn't happen after the car accident, this happened after Bai Wei's father went to jail.Bai Wei is no longer the young master of the Bai family, so all his friends left him.

At that time, for several nights, because of this incident, An Tianming squatted beside Bai Wei's bed while he was sleeping, holding the other's hand, watching him secretly cry... Now that I think about it, it's really ridiculous for me to do this.

An Tianming, who has been following Bai Wei for the past three days, met many of Bai Wei's friends.This shows that it's not that Bai Wei has no friends, it's just that he is on guard against An Tianming, so he deliberately conceals his friendship status from An Tianming.

Of course, An Tianming would not blame Bai Wei's deceit, even if Bai Wei killed him, he couldn't bear to blame him, let alone a small concealment.An Tianming would rather Bai Wei had more friends... However, this one seems to be an exception.

When the uninvited guest just stood quietly behind the opened door, An Tianming immediately noticed something was wrong.

Bai Wei, who was waiting for the takeaway, was obviously surprised by this visitor. "Li Lang?" He stood there and stared at Li Lang for a while.

Li Lang took the lead to break the silence: "You were busy settling down two days ago, I guess today should be a little free, so come and have a look, don't bother you?"

"Of course not." Bai Wei finally came back to his senses, and he stepped aside. "Come in and sit."

Li Lang walked into the room slowly, scanned the surroundings in a businesslike way, and then commented after sitting down: "The lighting here is pretty good, but it's a bit small?"

Bai Wei laughed quickly, "This is a normal house, unlike the apartment I rented before, the location is good, the price is so cheap and the place is so big." He said seriously, "At that time, I almost thought it was haunted. "

Li Lang slightly revealed the embarrassment of being teased. "I'm not a ghost."

An Tianming felt indescribably anxious. He could understand Bai Wei and Li Lang's nonchalant jokes. Li Lang must have secretly helped Bai Wei and rented a house to the latter at a very cheap price.For this, Bai Weiwei must appreciate it, otherwise he wouldn't tease it casually.

——If the person who wanted to help was An Tianming, Bai Weiwei would definitely not accept it.

An Tianming thought like that almost masochistically, but then he despised himself even more - in fact, he never "wanted to help" at all, and he was so brazen to blame himself.

"Speaking of ghosts..." Bai Wei's originally happy expression quickly turned into uneasiness with a vague hint of asking for help.

Bai Wei, who scored zero points in terms of life, is very independent subjectively, and he is rarely willing to reveal his weak side to others, but at this moment, he is so natural to join Li Lang's side.

An Tianming, who had always been grateful that he could still stay by Bai Wei's side after death, began to understand that maybe the reason why he appeared here was because he deserved it.The pain he once inflicted on the innocent Bai Wei, before he personally endured it, what qualifications does he have to think that everything is over?

With this thought, An Tianming did not divert his gaze, which he would rather avoid, and continued to stare straight at Bai Wei, who inadvertently showed his dependence on Li Lang.

"What's the matter, Xiaobai?" Li Lang asked with concern.

Bai Wei looked around quickly, and whispered to Li Lang, "I think this place is haunted."

An Tianming's unexpected remarks made the apparently involved parties confused and excited. "Xiao Wei?" He said, "Xiao Wei, can you feel me?" He hoped that the other party could perceive him, but at the same time, he was extremely afraid of the situation that might result if this happened.

However, Bai Wei couldn't hear him.Bai Wei described to Li Lang uncertainly: "The past two nights of sleeping, I always feel that someone is beside my bed...I can feel that person's breathing."

Li Lang immediately pointed out: "Do you think ghosts still need to breathe?"

Bai Wei, who always pays attention to logic, had to agree with Li Lang's words. He bowed his head and thought for a while, and cooperated with Li Lang to try to convince himself: "Maybe this is a psychological shadow."

Hearing this, Li Lang's expression became slightly gloomy, but revealed more concern and worry. "So, you're still having nightmares?"

Bai Wei thought for a while. "Sometimes I can't tell if it's a dream or real."

"All bad things are dreams, all good things are real..."

Before Li Lang finished speaking, Bai Wei smiled and completed for the other party: "—Whether it's true or not, you just have to believe it yourself."

Li Lang then smiled: "Yes, I forgot that this theory was introduced from you."

After Bai Wei smiled back, his expression became heavy again: "I really don't want to have that dream again."

Li Lang put his hand gently on Bai Wei's shoulder: "Xiaobai, you know that although I am not a psychiatrist, I may not be able to help you, but at least I have no friends. No matter what you tell me, I can't find anyone else." Spread the word. So, you can feel free to say anything to me."

Bai Wei looked up at Li Lang: "Who said you have no friends? At least you have me as a friend."

Li Lang was unable to speak for a while.Finally, he replied in a low voice: "Thank you, Xiaobai."

Bai Wei took a breath, and finally made a decision: "Since you thank me, it's time for you to repay - what I'll tell you next is very scary."

"It's okay, you know I'm brave."

Bai Wei was silent for a long time before speaking.

"You know about my moving, so you should also know about my meeting An Tianming again, right?"

Li Lang nodded slightly: "I know."

"...I don't know what he wants to do, but if he escapes, the end will probably be even worse, so I accepted his arrangement before and moved into his villa."

"So, it's miserable for you to live with me, right? You're just worried that I'll make you worse, so you accept it?" An Tianming asked in a low voice. He knew that the other party couldn't hear his voice, but he I still want to ask.Ask in a suppressed voice that only you can hear.

Bai Wei continued: "I was placed in the room I used to live in...then the dream began."

"What dream?" Li Lang asked gently.

"I dreamed," Bai Wei said with a confused expression, "every night he would squat next to my bed and apologize. I was so afraid that I didn't know what he wanted to do... Sometimes I doubted that it was not a dream, but it made me More scared. Back then I thought, what I was most worried about was that he would lift me up to the cloud again and push me down...but if it's not a joke here, I was just thinking about it, if it wasn't a joke, I was just dreaming I dreamed that he was beside my bed..."

Bai Wei couldn't speak anymore.Li Lang relayed for him softly: "Are you afraid that you won't be able to let him go?"

Bai Wei looked up at Li Lang with an expressionless face: "Do you think this is possible?"

This is not a rhetorical question, just a question.He looked like he expected a negative answer.

Li Lang didn't answer. He suddenly raised his voice and started another topic: "Xiaobai, speaking of your theory, do you still remember your balance method?"

Bai Wei froze for a moment. "Remember?"

"So, come back to me!"

Bai Wei looked at Li Lang speechlessly.

Li Lang explained in detail: "In short, the left side of the balance is that you have put down An Tianming, and the right side is that you have not let go. Add the weight of being with me to both sides, and there will be two outcomes in the end. The second Yes, you haven't let go of An Tianming yet, but because I'm with you, at least it means that you still have a chance to let go. The first situation is that you actually let go of An Tianming, but in the end you were favored by me, and you were wronged and stayed with me ——Although this incident is very unfortunate for you, at least you let go of An Tianming, which is considered a balance."

Bai Wei turned his eyes away and looked at the bookshelf beside him for a while, as if he had thought about it seriously, then turned back to meet Li Lang's gaze.

"Aaron, you know that I have only one extremely failed experience in being someone else's boyfriend, but I am much more proficient at being someone else's friend. For your own good, I would rather you have a good friend than a bad boyfriend."

Li Lang, who seemed to have expected this result, nodded nonchalantly: "Okay, this is the third time you have rejected me. It's only three things, maybe next time you will nod in agreement."

Bai Wei stood up from the sofa, and he corrected his previous remarks somewhat guiltily: "Think about it, it's not for your own good. I rejected you for my own good. Because I want you as a friend more You know, I wouldn't talk to Xuanzi and the others about this, and I probably wouldn't talk to anyone else, but in the end I told you...you know, we're actually quite unfamiliar..."

Li Lang looked at Bai Wei with impenetrable eyes: "We lived together for a year."

Bai Wei lowered his head and smiled to himself, "I think that was the year when we were the farthest." He walked over and turned on the light for the room where the sun had quietly receded.

Li Lang was silent for a long time.

For a moment, An Tianming felt that he saw himself in the other person's face.Their love is so subdued and cowardly that no one can hear it.

The knock on the door sounded at this moment.

"I hope it's really a takeaway this time, I'm going crazy hungry." Bai Wei went to open the door expectantly.He finally got his wish, opened the door and got the fried rice he ordered.

When he came back with a box of lunch, Bai Wei suddenly thought, "By the way, have you had dinner yet?" He asked worriedly because he only had fried rice for one person.

Li Lang thought for a while and then nodded: "I ate it."

Bai Wei sincerely reminded, "In the future, don't pause before telling a lie, or it will be too obvious." As he spoke, he found two bowls from the kitchen, and scooped the fried rice for one person into the two bowls in turn.He did this work very meticulously. After dividing, he observed carefully and made fine adjustments between the two bowls until he ensured that the two servings of rice had the same amount. "I share the meal, you choose it."

"I want the bowl on the left."

Bai Wei was particularly annoyed: "I also think the bowl on the left is more, your eyes are really poisonous."

"If you are so fussy, don't pretend to be generous next time and let me pick first." Li Lang said seriously.

He got a white eye. "I thought you'd pick the smaller share."

"Okay, I want the right side this night."

Bai Wei picked up the rice bowl on the left contentedly: "It's not that I bully you, it's you who want the bowl on the right."
