Running wolf and dog
Chapter 32: Stakes
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Han Xiaonuo woke up on Yan Bin's bed. It was a rare occasion that Yan Bin was still on the bed when Han Xiaonuo woke up, and he seemed to be still in a deep sleep.
Han Xiaonuo turned his head to look at him. The other person's nose was straight and strong. Even though he was asleep, his thin lips were still tight, as if he was unhappy in a dream.
Seeing Yan Bin's frowning long eyebrows, Han Xiaonuo couldn't help stretching out his hand. As soon as his hand touched a trace of gentleness, Yan Bin's hand grabbed his wrist.
Yan Bin has learned Sanda fighting since he was a child, and Han Xiaonuo has seen the strength in his hands. The skills he learned abroad are definitely not opponents of the opponent, so when the opponent grabs his hand, he obediently does not move.
The man opened his eyes, his eyebrows were clear, and he didn't look like he had just woken up.Han Xiaonuo felt cheated, but before he could react too much, Yan Bin stretched out a strong arm and took Han Xiaonuo into his arms.
Because of the previous training, Han Xiaonuo had a little more muscle on his body. When Yan Bin hugged him, he couldn't help touching his back, and then went down his back and landed directly on his buttocks.
Although the relationship between the two has not been innocent for a long time, and Han Xiaonuo is not a chaste woman, Yan Bin's action still made him tremble slightly. Yan Bin lowered his head and stared at him with a pair of black eyes. Said lightly: "Your trembling is more real than other expressions."
Han Xiaonuo opened his eyes and looked at him inexplicably, but Han Xiaonuo knew in his heart that he was a little scared. If he was scared, silent, deliberately choked on alcohol, coughed and then started cursing after meeting Yan Bin yesterday. Looking for opportunities to get close to men is all his act, so at this moment, the fear that grows from the depths of his heart is completely unaware of him, so real, it makes him a little uncomfortable to breathe.
But he swallowed lightly, looked at Yan Bin with his black eye open, and asked in a puzzled tone, "What did you say?"
Yan Bin hugged him, and his eyes never left his eyes. The silence made Han Xiaonuo's heart hurt a little, but his face was still innocent. He looked at Yan Bin, and the other party stared at Yan Bin with those black eyes. He, the brilliance in it flowed, for a moment, he felt that the man had seen his secret, but fortunately the man looked away at this time, got up and stood up.
With no clothes on, Yan Bin's well-defined figure was exposed to Han Xiaonuo's gaze, and Han Xiaonuo's face turned red in an instant. Ordinary people would think he was shy when they saw this scene, but it was only him I understand that it is a kind of luck for the rest of my life.
Yan Bin started to put on his clothes, and while he was putting on, he turned his head and said to Han Xiaonuo, "I'm going to the branch to do something today, you stay and wait for me, you are not allowed to leave."
Just as Han Xiaonuo was about to stand up and resist, he heard him say: "Also, the study room has just been renovated, so don't wait too long to go in and read."
Han Xiaonuo paused when he was about to get up, and he couldn't help saying: "Yan Bin, when did you become so careful?"
The other party turned his head and glanced at him. The gaze was complicated, as if countless sharp swords were shooting at Han Xiaonuo, and he suddenly froze on the bed and lost his movement.
When Han Xiaonuo woke up from the trance, Yan Bin had already left, and the empty room suddenly became quiet, but Han Xiaonuo's heart couldn't help beating violently.
The man knew, Han Xiaonuo was sure.
He lay on the bed and beat the bed board under him vigorously, his eyes were ashen, Han Xiaonuo thought that he was already acting like that soft-witting 'male favorite' back then, but he didn't know that there is a kind of person who is not suitable for it by nature lie.
After lying down for a while, Han Xiaonuo got up to wash up. While getting dressed, he glanced out the window. The snow had stopped, but the sky was dark, and it didn't feel like it was about to clear up.
When Han Xiaonuo walked out of the room, he thought that there would be a few people outside the door waiting for him to throw himself into the trap, but he didn't expect that after he came out, he found that there was no one in the room. Could it be that Yan Bin had no defense at all?
He remembered the man's last look, or, the man had given him clear instructions, and he didn't dare to measure it so much!
Thinking of this, Han Xiaonuo clenched his fists again angrily. Ever since the life-and-death battle, Han Xiaonuo never thought of getting along with Yan Bin, even if the two of them could roll on the same bed as if nothing happened. , but Han Xiaonuo knew that men were wary of him, and he never trusted him from the very beginning.
In such a state of mind, even if there is a real secret love, it will be covered up. What's more, at this time, Han Xiaonuo feels that he wants to fight a man to the death. He is not a belligerent person, but he has a stronger one. He will try his best to fight for what he wants, just like those people who left his life in the end, never once did he try to keep him; If it hurts, he will definitely return it to those people intact.
Han Xiaonuo was certain in his heart: if he could point a gun at Yan Bin the first time, then he will definitely be able to do it the second time.
The more he thought about it, the more Han Xiaonuo fell into a self-created atmosphere of grief and indignation. Finally, he uncontrollably walked towards the newly renovated study that Yan Bin was talking about. . . . . .
There was a silver-gray BMW parked in the snow, and two men were sitting on it. At first glance, the two men looked similar, but after careful consideration, it was not difficult to see that one of them had a youthful and reckless hostility in his eyes. And the other person obviously carried a coldness that was isolated from the world.
Of these two people, one is Yan Hao, and the other is naturally Yan Bin.
At this time, Yan Hao held the steering wheel tightly with his hands, and seemed very angry.He couldn't believe that his cousin, who had always been calm and steady in handling affairs, would make such a low-level mistake at such a critical moment.
Yan Hao stared at the distance, the sky was dark and oppressive, he only felt that his mood was even worse, so he just dropped his hands from the steering wheel, didn't speak, and started to sulk.If it was someone else, he would have punched him, but the other party was his cousin he had always admired, so he could only keep silent.
However, after a while, Yan Bin spoke first, but what he asked almost didn't make Yan Hao die of anger.
"Do you think I'm really unreasonable?"
Yan Hao turned his head to look at him, the face of the other party was still as calm as usual, but for the first time, hesitation appeared in the eyes staring out of the window that Yan Hao had never seen before, this change made Yan Hao even more angry, he squeezed Fist, said to Yan Bin: "No, you have always been my role model."
Yan Bin smiled, and this smile carried a bitterness that Yan Hao couldn't see. After a while, he lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. The smoke that he exhaled engulfed his three-dimensional facial features in a blur, making the whole person At that time, he looked like an old man over fifty years old.
Seeing this, Yan Hao was taken aback. He remembered that when he was 16 years old, because the new boss of the Han family gang took office, the momentum was too strong, and a sudden change occurred within the Yan family. The traitor at that time directly killed the boss. It can be said that the entire Yan family was almost It was about to fall apart. At that time, it was the man in front of him. He took a knife and led a group of brothers desperately to negotiate with each other. His fingers fell off several times and then were sewn back. But Yan Hao has never seen him frown, Yan Hao thinks he is a real man, and has regarded him as his idol since then, but at this moment, the man in front of him is suddenly strange.
He began to wonder, is the person sitting next to him still Yan Bin?
As if seeing his doubts, Yan Bin took another drag on his cigarette, and then said: "Yan Hao, I don't think I've ever really lived."
Yan Hao was puzzled, and he continued: "I have been trained by my father as a successor since I was a child. While practicing martial arts, I was not allowed to fall behind in my studies. When I was five years old, I saw my mother was killed by a traitor in front of my own eyes. At the bedside, when I was 20 years old, I saw my father was killed by his two most trusted brothers. After that, I no longer believed in people on the road. I am 26 years old, and many people think that I live like a man, but sometimes I feel like a monster, a monster without emotion..."
Bang, there was a muffled sound, Yan Hao looked at his fist in disbelief, he was so angry that he couldn't control his behavior, he was stunned for a moment, he seemed to give up everything, he pulled Yan Bin's collar and He shouted at him: "It's time like this, you are so soft, I have always regarded you as an idol, not only me, you are the pride of our entire Yan family brothers, everyone is proud of you, This is not something that fucking money can buy!"
Yes, many things cannot be bought with money. Thinking of this, Yan Bin smiled. Yan Hao looked at the bruised corner of his mouth, and suddenly regretted it. He heard Yan Bin say again: "A few years ago A few years ago, I was just in charge of the Yanjiabang. At that time, I was also afraid. There was no one trustworthy around me. I would always run to Yunmeng Middle School. My grandmother was not dead at that time, and she lived there. She never Did not appear in the Yan Gang, except me and my mother, even my father never went to the place where she lived to see, if I was afraid at that time, I would talk to her, an accident, I saw a boy in that alley , he was bullied by a group of people, but even when he was beaten to the ground, he didn't say a word and didn't beg for mercy. I didn't know what to think at the time. , that group of people had already left, I went up to ask him if he wanted to help, but he directly refused to pick me up, I saw the young man leaving silently, and suddenly thought, will he ever be frustrated and beg for mercy like this Well, he seems to have awakened something that has been silent in my heart, and since then, I have begun to pay attention to him."
“后来,我发现他竟然还暗恋着顾逸,大概是觉得他跟我想的不一样,心里气愤,于是揍了他,他开始讨厌我;有一次,我跟一批外商在景云谈判, Things changed halfway, someone attacked us, I escaped with injuries, as if someone arranged it, I met the boy on the way, and then used him to escape, after that, I paid more attention to him."
"He doesn't like to talk, but as long as someone treats him well, he will pour out his heart and soul. This is stupid, and he knows it, but he can't change it. Finally, an accident, he took the blame for his friend and went to prison. I thought This time he should be finished. Unexpectedly, listening to the messages from the brothers in the prison, he is simply an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, who will not bow to anyone. Even Fang Qiang, who was afraid of the whole prison at that time, would not compromise. , even if he was beaten to death several times. Then, I rescued him, and I imprisoned him in a despicable way. I don’t have any special feelings for men, but after seeing him, I just couldn’t help it. I saw He seems to be looking at another self, I want him to bow his head, let him give up even once, say that he can't hold on, this game can't go on, but not once."
"Later, during a grave sweeping, he finally pointed a gun at me. I knew he had planned it for a long time, but I was too confident, and I didn't think he would shoot." He touched his chest with his hand.
"He blocked a shot for me and in the last moments of his fall he shot me."
"For two years, I didn't have any news about him. I always knew that the Han Gang was secretly protecting him, so when he appeared in front of me a while ago, I knew that the other party's plan was about to start." Yan Bin said After finishing this, he took another deep breath of the cigarette.
Yan Hao looked at the man in front of him. At that moment, he finally understood that this man who looked like he was cast with a copper head and iron arms was actually the same as himself, and he also had feelings. Just one.
He doesn't like Yan Bin becoming such a person, so he must help him change. He knows Yan Bin's plan, and he let Han Xiaonuo know that Yunjing is about to be placed in the study. It was an unsure bet, he wanted to see if Han Xiaonuo would really put him to death!
A lunatic who has done this for his feelings, Yan Hao seems to have decided on something, he began to look forward to Han Xiaonuo's figure appearing at the corner ahead, he believed that as soon as the other party appeared, he would step on the accelerator hard, Knock the opponent into a meat paste directly!
He turned his head and focused his eyes on the front. This road was the only way out of Yan's family. They had been waiting for almost an hour. Yan Hao believed that that idiot named Han Xiaonuo would definitely appear.
However, he waited for a long time, and there was not even a single figure at the entrance of the alley in front of him.Just when he couldn't wait, Yan Bin's cell phone rang. Yan Hao woke up when he saw the flash in Yan Bin's eyes. He guessed that it was Han Xiaonuo who called.
Sure enough, when Yan Bin picked up the phone, Han Xiaonuo asked him, "When are you coming back?"
"Why?" Yan Bin asked, with a tenderness in his tone that he couldn't find.
"It's okay, it's just boring to be here alone." Han Xiaonuo's soft voice came from the phone, and Yan Bin's hanging heart suddenly fell down. He was suddenly a little happy, so he left The car headed straight for the house.
After walking a few steps, he heard a bang, and Yan Bin froze on the spot with his mobile phone in his hands. Behind him, Yan Hao stood behind him holding a black gun, his eyes were full of shock.
Han Xiaonuo turned his head to look at him. The other person's nose was straight and strong. Even though he was asleep, his thin lips were still tight, as if he was unhappy in a dream.
Seeing Yan Bin's frowning long eyebrows, Han Xiaonuo couldn't help stretching out his hand. As soon as his hand touched a trace of gentleness, Yan Bin's hand grabbed his wrist.
