After the humble spare tire set the car overturned

when?

It was a day Tan Lie would never forget.

Tan Lie's expression was fixed somewhere, as if caught in some memory: "December 12th last year."

"December 12...14th." Zhao Yi silently read the date, and his fingertips gradually became cold.

For a certain day two months ago, it is difficult for ordinary people to immediately connect it with specific things that happened.But for Zhao Yi, this day was not as profound as Tan Lie, but it was special enough.

On the 13th, Nan Xiaojin came back.

Zhao Yi sat in the apartment and waited for Chaoci all night and day, constantly looking at the watch or mobile phone screen, watching the date on it from the 13th to the 14th.

Then Chaoci came back.

There was obviously something wrong on the day of the imperial resignation.His face was terribly pale, his hands and feet seemed to be shaking, and he staggered a bit when he walked.

But Zhao Yi, who had been waiting for a day, lost patience with him. His cold tone was filled with anger, and he only said two words to him: Nan Xiaojin is back, and I'm going to move out.

Tan Lie was right.

He always regarded himself as Chaoci's best friend, but he never really cared about Chaoci.

Even in the past ten years or seven years, it can be said that Chaoci hid it too well, but... what about that night?

As long as he pays attention a little bit.

As long as he finds a little bit, finds his staggering steps, his bloodless cheeks... as long as he looks at him more.

He remembered that before he left, he had said a word to Chao Ci.

What did he say?

——"You like to go out and hang out, I know I have no position to stop you, but you better know what you are doing."

Zhao Yi lowered his head and covered his eyes with one hand, not knowing what expression to put on because of the pain.

What was Chaoci thinking at that time?

How uncomfortable he must be to go to the bathroom alone and bite off his own veins.

How much pain he must have.

How hopeless it must be.

Tan Lie looked at Zhao Yi in front of him.

He arched his back and covered his eyes with his hands, but there was still liquid running down his fingers.

Zhao Yi is unsmiling and not good at words, but it is not inferiority, but a kind of superiority that is almost arrogant.

But now, not only does he not have the slightest attitude of the past, he is even in a state of embarrassment.

But Tan Lie looked down at him, without any sympathy in his heart, and even Ruyi felt that it was not enough.

"Get up, there's no time for you to blame yourself," he said.

It is absolutely impossible to make up for what happened, and now who is showing this picture?

Any more delay now, the more dangerous Chaoci will be.

Of course Zhao Yi also knew this truth.

He didn't want to show anyone, nor did he want to ask for forgiveness.

It's just...it really hurts.

The pain made him wish he could cut out the throbbing thing in his chest.But even if he does this now, what's the use of it besides wasting his time?

So even though his heart was in pain like being crushed, he still straightened up and walked out the door.

…………

It's not wise to tear yourself apart with the Huo family.

But Zhao Yi knelt down in front of the ancestral house all night. No matter how hard-hearted the old man was, he couldn't be cruel to his only grandson.

Zhao Yi got the approval of the old man, and even the power, he didn't care about the injury from kneeling all night, he just stood up and walked outside.

He almost fell down several times, and made the servants and bodyguards next to him tremble with fear, but Zhao Yi didn't show any superfluous expression on his face.

Mr. Zhao looked at his grandson's back in the hall, leaning on crutches and didn't know what to say.

"That kid from the Chao family... hey." He sighed, and was helped by Zhao's father to sit on a chair.

A long time ago, he knew that the kid from the Chao family was not an ordinary person.

That kid was too lonely and ruthless, he couldn't see anyone except his own grandson in his eyes.

But this is also an advantage, especially when this kid has power behind him and ability in his hands.He thought that kid would be a very good knife for Zhao Yi.

But he is old after all.Can't see through the thoughts of these young people, the chao family boy is good, but his ability to stir up trouble is not small at all.

On the contrary, the younger generation of the Huo family, how could he get involved?

……

Zhao Yi and Tan Lie found Chao Ci in the basement of a villa in the suburbs.

More than 20 people guarded the villa inside and out, but they were all taken down instantly by the people brought by Zhao Yi and Tan Lie.Huo Yige wasn't there either.

After opening countless doors, there was only one password door similar to a bank vault left. Zhao Yi urgently contacted professionals to crack it.

It took more than half an hour to unlock the lock.During this period, Tan Lie and Zhao Yi stared at the door without even blinking.

This is not about people, it is clearly about goods!

They chanted Huo Yige's name over and over again, wishing they could drag him out and chop him up.

After waiting for a long time, the password was finally unlocked, and the door slowly opened to both sides.

The gap in the door was getting wider and wider, but there was no light inside. It seemed that there was a giant beast with a ferocious long beak hiding in the abyss. No one could see it, but every cell in its body was screaming with fear.There is no wind inside.After the door was opened, the air slowly circulated.

The fresh air from outside was poured in, displacing the rotten gloom.

Zhao Yi gritted his teeth so hard that he could barely maintain his last trace of sanity.

Chao Ci was locked in such a place for several days.

Even a normal person would go crazy, but Chaoci is still sick!

How can he stand it...

The door was fully opened, and the people brought by Zhao Yi were about to go in and turn on the lights.

"Don't open!"

Zhao Yi said sharply suddenly, startling everyone present.

He didn't explain anything, and the person next to him said: "The light cannot be turned on. Mr. Chao has been inside for a long time without a light source. Turning on the light suddenly will cause him harm."

Tan Lie casually took a flashlight from the bodyguard and said to Zhao Yi, "Let's go in."

What he meant was that only the two of them needed to go in.

They will see Chaoci in the most embarrassing state, and Chaoci is so strong.

Zhao Yi walked in front, and Tan Lie walked behind with a flashlight.

This secret room wasn't too big, but it wasn't small either. It should be fifty square meters.

They could vaguely see a figure on the bed, sitting in the corner.

That was the innermost part of the room, and the only source of light was their flashlights... The scene in front of them could be called terrifying.

But none of the two people present felt terrible.When Zhao Yi saw the familiar figure, he immediately stepped forward. At this time, he saw nothing but that person.

He sat on the bed against the wall, and the bed was huge.

Zhao Yi stepped on the bed directly, and walked to the man's side in two or three steps.

Tan Lie didn't dare to shine the flashlight directly at Chao Ci for fear of hurting his eyes.It can only be illuminated on the side, but the scattered faint light is enough for Zhao Yi to see the appearance of Qing Dynasty Ci at this time.

His eyes are open.

But there was nothing left in those incomparably beautiful peach eyes. He stared blankly ahead, not showing any difference to the two people who suddenly appeared beside him or the light source that appeared beside him.

If it were someone else in front of him, they might scream instantly, because he doesn't look like a living person at all at this moment.

But now it was Zhao Yi and Tan Lie who were present, and the two of them could only feel unspeakable distress at this moment.

Zhao Yi stretched out his hand, his fingertips trembling, his fingers bent nervously several times, and finally touched his shoulder.

The moment he touched Chao Ci, the person in front of him finally reacted to the outside world, and he began to scream with all his might.

But being confined for a day and two nights made him extremely weak, even if he was hysterical, he looked dry and weak.Zhao Yi hugged Chao Ci tightly, even though his eyes were bleeding from the pain, he still tried his best to hug him and comfort him with the most gentle movements.

"A Ci, it's me, I'm Zhao Yi."

He couldn't stop kissing Chaoci's cheek lightly, his lips touched the cold and slightly salty liquid, and he couldn't even tell whether it was his or Chaoci's.

"I'll take you out...I'm here to save you."

But Chaoci didn't seem to listen at all, he just screamed with his empty eyes open.

He even started kicking and biting the person restraining him.

"Get out, get out!"

But even if Zhao Yi's shoulder was bitten bloody by Chao Ci, he didn't snort.After a long, long time, Chaoci fell into a faint from exhaustion, and Zhao Yi picked him up, and said hoarsely to Tan Lie beside him, "Let's go."

Tan Lie nodded.

His pain will never be less than that of Zhao Yi, but he can only let Zhao Yi hold Chaoci, but he dare not take a step forward.

Because he knew that Chaoci's spirit had collapsed at this time, and perhaps Zhao Yi was his last straw.

If Zhao Yi is not...then no one else is.
