Highly toxic

Jiang Mu lay on the bed and fell asleep until the early hours of the morning.

It didn't seem like he had slept for long when the apartment doorbell rang.

It was already bright outside the window, Jiang Mu looked at the time on the phone and found that it was already past seven in the morning.

Jiang Mu knew without guessing that the person outside was Geng Yan.

This man has a mysterious attachment to the little glutinous rice balls that helped him when he was young.

Jiang Mu opened the door, and before he could speak, Geng Yan stretched out his arms and hugged him tightly.

"I didn't sleep all night after I went back last night, and I just waited for dawn to come to you." Geng Yan rubbed his cheek against Jiang Mu's soft short hair, and said in a trance, "I'm so happy Jiang Mu, what do you think? You can lie to me for so long."

Jiang Mu pushed Geng Yan away, turned around and returned to the apartment, Geng Yan hurriedly followed up, and closed the apartment door by the way.

"Jiang Mu, I said a lot of nasty things before, I apologize to you, can you not be angry with me, in fact, I am really not the kind of person you saw before..."

Geng Yan's face was extremely sincere, and there was a hint of innocent pleading in his eyes. If he hadn't seen Geng Yan's real personality, Jiang Mu would not have believed that such a humble and sincere man had a vicious and sinister inside.

Xiaotangyuan's identity is simply the dividing line between his two natures.

"You...will you continue to pester me in the future?" Jiang Mu looked at Geng Yan and asked tentatively.

"Then how can it be called entanglement? I like you and want to pursue you, isn't that okay?" Geng Yan walked up to Jiang Mu and reached out to hold Jiang Mu's hands. Jiang Mu resisted slightly for two seconds, and finally let Geng Yan go. Yan held it like this.

"Suddenly knew that I was Xiao Tangyuan, so I changed my face overnight." Jiang Mu said coldly, "Who...who would believe your feelings like this."

Geng Yan panicked and explained, "I already liked you when I didn't know you were Xiaotangyuan."

Jiang Mu looked at Geng Yan in disbelief.

"But at that time you were devoted to He Qianyan, but you dismissed me." Geng Yan's eyes were dim, "I'm jealous of you and I'm unwilling, but I don't want to be laughed at by you and He Qianyan, so I can only hold back my dissatisfaction." Show it, and use interest as an excuse to get close to you."

Jiang Mu's heart was shocked by Geng Yan's words.

Brother Yan guessed right.

Geng Yan, I like myself.

"Are... are you serious?" Jiang Mu stared blankly at the man in front of him, "You obviously...you hate me so much."

"Don't force yourself to hate you, do you think I can bear you being with He Qianyan?" Geng Yan became a little excited, "I've thought about it, the next step is to bring down He Qianyan. If you lose your strength and fight with me, I will take you back."

"..."

Jiang Mu couldn't recover from Geng Yan's confession for a long time.

It's too shocking.

"Jiang Mu." Geng Yan grabbed Jiang Mu's arm with both hands, and said affectionately, "Break up with He Qianyan. In the negotiation two months ago, he told me that he didn't love you. I really regret that. I didn't record that passage secretly, Jiang Mu, I can't bear to put you next to a hypocrite like He Qianyan..."

"Don't try to provoke me and Brother Yan."

"He just thinks that you are obedient, and he feels at ease by his side. He doesn't take you seriously at all. You know, he wanted to send you to me to seek cooperation. In his eyes, you are like an obedient little boy." Cats and puppies."

Geng Yan was very impatient in his heart, he was eager to let Jiang Mu know the true face of He Qianyan, but the more he was like this, the more he seemed to be jealous and provocative.

Jiang Mu said angrily, "Compared to you, I believe in brother Yan more, don't...don't think I don't know what your purpose is."

"If He Qianyan really loves you, no matter how unwilling I am, I will help you all, because you are a little glutinous rice ball, and making you happy is the most important thing." Geng Yan said, "But it is precisely because you are a little glutinous rice ball that I cannot just watch you Become He Qianyan's puppet, so you..."

"I'm married to Brother Yan." Jiang Mu said suddenly.

Geng Yan was dumbfounded, "What... what?"

Jiang Mu broke away from Geng Yan's hands, turned around and went to the bedroom, and came out with two little red books after a while.

Jiang Mu pushed the marriage certificate to Geng Yan's chest, "You should give up now."

Geng Yan took the little red book in a daze, opened it and saw the contents inside, his face turned pale.

The above time was exactly two months ago.

Geng Yan suddenly understood why when He Qianyan asked Jiang Mu to come to his apartment at night, Jiang Mu still believed in He Qianyan's feelings. It turned out that Jiang Mu's heart was completely tied to death by means of marriage. himself.

He Qianyan's city was far beyond his expectations.

Geng Yan sat slumped on the sofa, his slumped face was empty for a while, a few seconds later, he leaned on the sofa with his hands on his forehead, and closed his eyes tightly in annoyance.

If he had discovered that Jiang Mu was Xiaotangyuan earlier, this kind of thing would not have happened.

He couldn't bear the person he cared about the most, being put by He Qianyan's side like a cow and a horse.

"You don't have to worry about childhood things." Jiang Mu looked at Geng Yan calmly, "Honestly speaking, we are... very lucky that we can meet each other again in good condition."

Geng Yan lowered his arms and turned his head to look at Jiang Mu sadly.

Jiang Mu avoided Geng Yan's gaze, looked at the ground, and said slowly, "After we separated from you, I missed you very much and worried whether you could survive, but...it's a pity that I was too young to be able to Give you more help, maybe... maybe at that time, I should take you with me..."

Jiang Mu's words released Geng Yan's longing and loneliness that had been suppressed for more than ten years.

This kind of dialogue brought Geng Yan back to that winter in a trance.

Geng Yan looked at Jiang Mu in front of him, and felt a burning pain in his heart.

He never felt how difficult it was for him to survive back then. At that time, he touched the warmth that he could not grasp in the next ten years. Every time he recalled the past, the vivid light always made him ignore those things. Bitterness and frustration.

He always felt that that beam of light belonged to him alone, Geng Yan.

"Geng Yan, let's be friends..." Jiang Mu said softly.

As if he had figured something out, Geng Yan stood up from the sofa, no longer downcast like before, but said to Jiang Mu with firm eyes, "Even if we are friends, I still need to let you see He Qianyan's true face .”

"you……"

Geng Yan quickly left Jiang Mu's apartment, and Jiang Mu didn't look back when he asked him.

Around noon, Jiang Mu received a call from Tong Wan, asking if he had delivered the soup he sent yesterday to Geng Yan.

Jiang Mu panicked and said that Geng Yan drank all the soup, but he only praised the taste and didn't say anything else.

Tong Wan was overjoyed after hearing this, and immediately said that she wanted to send something over in the afternoon, and then asked Jiang Mu to help deliver it.

Jiang Mu agreed.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, Tong Wan came to Jiang Mu's apartment again, this time not to deliver soup, but to give Jiang Mu a small sachet embroidered with golden silk thread, and told Jiang Mu that this was her first two sachets. Tian went to the temple to ask for them, and they hung them in the carriage to keep them safe. She begged for two in total, one was in He Qianyan's exclusive private car, and the other was for him to hand over to Geng Yan.

Same as last time, Tong Wan sat on the sofa, took Jiang Mu's hand to say thank you, and then started to talk about family affairs. Somehow, the topic came to He Qianyan's marriage. Tong Wan told Jiang Mu that He Qianyan was talking to a doorman. Shuyuan is passionately in love, and the two hit it off and are well matched. According to the current progress, the marriage will be settled in a short time.

Tong Wan told Jiang Mu that she mainly wanted to express that on the day her son got married, she also hoped that Jiang Mu could attend the wedding.

For the wedding feast of a wealthy family, everyone on the invitation list is valuable. Tong Wan sent an invitation letter to Jiang Mu. Naturally, Tong Wan wanted to show her respect and love for Jiang Mu.

But Tong Wan's words made Jiang Mu turn pale with shock.

I said my brother was going to marry a daughter of a famous family?

How can this be? !

"Auntie, are you... are you sure Brother Yan is going to marry that daughter?" Jiang Mu moved the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't maintain a calm expression, "They should... just be friends."

"Yanyan is very busy these days, and you probably haven't seen Yanyan for a long time, so it's normal not to know." Tong Wan said with a smile, "But Auntie is also impatient, and they really haven't fully decided on this matter. Come on, it seems too early to say this now, but Xiao Jiang, don't worry, when Yan Yan gets married, Auntie will definitely send you an invitation card as soon as possible."

"..."

After sending Tong Wan away, Jiang Mu called He Qianyan anxiously.

He needed He Qianyan to deny what Tong Wan said in person before he could truly calm down.

On the phone, He Qianyan directly asked Jiang Mu out to meet.

In the box of a western restaurant, Jiang Mu met He Qianyan.

He Qianyan was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with a calm demeanor, leaning on the seat by the dining table, his body was tired and elegant, his face was still as calm and refined as before, but his slightly pursed thin lips vaguely revealed a kind of stranger Do not enter the atmosphere.

When Jiang Mu gradually realized that He Qianyan's current identity is no longer that gentle and persistent ordinary entrepreneur, but the president of a wealthy group, he felt a sense of distance inexplicably in his heart. He always wanted to get closer to He Qianyan ,but now……

Jiang Mu couldn't even substitute himself as He Qianyan's lover.

"It seems to have lost some weight." He Qian said gently.

Jiang Mu touched his face subconsciously, "Maybe it's because of irregular work and rest, so it looks... a little haggard."

After a pause, Jiang Mu went straight to the point and asked He Qianyan about the rumors about the marriage of a wealthy daughter.

"Xiaojiang, I'm not stable in Zhengsheng right now, and I need someone's help." He Qianyan was very calm, and he said slowly, "The daughter of the Changlu Group is interested in me and can give me the combat power I need. accepted her offer."

"Auntie said that you are... going to get married." Jiang Mu still didn't dare to question He Qianyan too forcefully, he didn't want to look like a dissatisfied woman in the palace.

The higher He Qianyan's status was, the more he was afraid that his performance would be too vulgar.

He Qianyan smiled, "Xiaojiang, my real lover is you, do you think I will commit bigamy?"

Jiang Mu lowered his head and did not speak.

He and He Qianyan got married too hastily, and now the relationship has not been made public, which makes him hardly feel like he and He Qianyan have become spouses.

The distance is still far away, and everything is as illusory as a bubble.

He Qianyan got up, walked to Jiang Mu's side and sat up, he stroked Jiang Mu's shoulder with one hand, and said softly, "At this time, the only person I trust is you..."

"……Um."

"Xiao Jiang, your complexion is very bad, you must pay attention to rest."

Jiang Mu breathed heavily, and said in a low hoarse voice, "I don't want to... lie, Brother Yan, I'm afraid..."

"It's almost over." He Qianyan kissed the corner of Jiang Mu's lips, and said softly, "Once the matter is completed, you can move to my place, no one can hurt you."

He Qianyan held Jiang Mu in his arms, and Jiang Mu lay on his shoulders, and it took him a long time to calm down.

After having dinner together, He Qianyan drove Jiang Mu downstairs to the apartment. He turned off the lights in the car, and pressed Jiang Mu against the car door to kiss wantonly and tenderly.

At the end, He Qianyan said in a low voice, "I can't wait to want you..."

Jiang Mu got out of the car blushing.

The date with He Qianyan made Jiang Mu's wavering heart firm again.

Jiang Mu returned to the door of the apartment and was about to speak when the door of Zhuang Xi's apartment opened and Geng Yan walked out.

Geng Yan has been waiting.

"Just finished dating He Qianyan?" Geng Yan's voice was lukewarm, but it wasn't sarcasm, with a hint of hatred, "He Qianyan is dating the daughter of the Changlu Group, do you know that? ?”

This was something Geng Yan only found out today. He hadn't paid attention to He Qianyan's private affairs before, and now he regarded it as a bargaining chip that could separate He Qianyan and Jiang Mu.

He asked He Qianyan to divorce Jiang Mu.

Jiang Mu didn't speak, and lowered his head to unlock the door. As soon as he entered the door, Geng Yan followed closely.

"Did you hear what I said?" Geng Yan grabbed Jiang Mu's arm, "Why are you so stupid."

Jiang Mu didn't struggle violently, "I know."

"You know? You know you're still with He Qianyan?" Geng Yan couldn't help turning up the volume, "Are you crazy?"

"It must be that I didn't do well enough." Jiang Mu said in a low voice, "I... If I try harder, brother Yan will..."

"You're so dizzy." Geng Yan breathed violently, "With you like this, it's even more impossible for me to let you be with He Qianyan, Jiang Mu, look at me..."

Geng Yan held Jiang Mu's cheeks, "You are not wrong, He Qianyan is not good enough for you, can you divorce him? Jiang Mu, go and divorce He Qianyan, I will not force you to stay with me Yes, you don't like me, I... I'll treat you as a relative, okay, you can do whatever you want, but you can't abuse yourself..."

Jiang Mu was in a daze for a few seconds at Geng Yan's words.

He didn't expect this man to say such a thing, taking care of his feelings so affectionately and properly.

Jiang Mu finally understood the shrewdness of He Qianyan's strategy. He probably already saw that from the story he told him, or from Geng Yan's provocation to him in the past month. Boys are of extraordinary importance to Geng Yan.

This plan is perfect, and there is even no danger in the process, because when Geng Yan believed that he was the boy, he became the existence that Geng Yan tried his best to protect.

However, Jiang Mu would rather that Geng Yan has always been an outrageous and sinister existence, so that his lies can be carried out with peace of mind.

But at this moment, he saw Geng Yan's affectionate and noble side.

If you do bad things, there will be retribution.

Jiang Mu thought to himself.

"I will not divorce Brother Yan..." Jiang Mu closed his eyes, "I have loved him for so many years, and I will leave him only when he doesn't want me, otherwise... so what if you don't love me, just... as long as As long as I can keep looking at him, I will be content."

"..."

Such Jiang Mu made Geng Yan angry and distressed.

"After a while, I will move to Brother Yan." Jiang Mu continued, "It doesn't matter if I don't disclose the relationship, as long as I can stay by Brother Yan silently..."

Jiang Mu took a deep breath silently in his heart, and then put his arms around Geng Yan's waist.

Geng Yan was startled, with an unbelievable expression.

"Thank you for saying these words to me. Whether I am happy with Brother Yan or not, I... I thank you." Jiang Mu leaned his head on Geng Yan's shoulder, and said softly, "Actually, you are fine. Now I still occasionally recall the days when we were together, if I hadn't married Brother Yan, I think... I think I would really fall in love with you. "

Geng Yan's mind went blank, and Jiang Mu's words hit his body like a hurricane, making it difficult for him to calm down for a long time.

"You... are what you said true?" Geng Yan's voice was as ethereal as air.

Jiang Mu let go of Geng Yan, he tiptoed slightly, took the initiative to place a kiss on Geng Yan's lips, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I've already been married, unless Brother Yan doesn't want me, I... I will never would betray that feeling."

Geng Yan put his arms around Jiang Mu's waist, and asked tentatively, "So, you have feelings for me, right? You don't just hate me, you miss the time when we were together. ,Yeah?"

Jiang Mu lowered his head, pursed his lips slightly and did not speak.

In this way, it is especially the default.

"I know what to do?" Geng Yan kissed Jiang Mu's forehead and said softly, "Wait for my little glutinous rice balls..."

Geng Yan left the apartment like the wind again.

Jiang Mu was sitting on the sofa, holding his head in his hands, his chaotic mood made him unable to calm down for a while, and in a trance, he hoped that Geng Yan could see something abnormal.

Geng Yan didn't show up for two whole days, Jiang Mu learned from He Qianyan that Geng Yan had negotiated with him.

The next day, He Qianyan asked Jiang Mu to meet at a restaurant.

He Qianyan brought over a divorce agreement for Jiang Mu to sign.

"Why do you really want to sign?" Jiang Mu said anxiously, "At the beginning, I said yes...it's not like this, it's just a show...that's fine."

"If you don't, you can't fool him." He Qianyan said softly, "It doesn't matter, these things can be made up for later."

Jiang Mu didn't write immediately, but said with a complex expression, "There are reports on the Internet that Brother Yan is going to be engaged to the daughter of the Changlu Group... Engaged, it's not a gossip, it's a report from a serious commercial media."

"The purpose of releasing this kind of news is to stabilize my position in the He family." He Qian said seriously, "Jiang Mu, I am in a very difficult situation now. If you can't trust me, then who else can I trust."

"..."

"Xiao Jiang, how many years have we known each other, you don't know me."

Jiang Mu lowered his head, "Brother Yan, I really don't know him anymore..."

Jiang Mu finally signed the divorce agreement. This short marriage, which seemed to be just a formality, disappeared when he made the last payment.

That was what Jiang Mu once thought happily, the relationship that was inseparable for a lifetime, but now it can easily become part of the plan.

Jiang Mu suddenly felt very tired. He looked at his sweetheart opposite, still handsome and elegant, but those dark eyes were bottomless.

All the tenderness seemed to be his mask.

That evening, Zhuang Xi asked Jiang Mu out for dinner. At the dinner table, Zhuang Xi ordered a bottle of white wine. more than him.

Jiang Mu, who doesn't drink much, was completely overwhelmed by the three small glasses of white wine, and finally fell unconscious on the table.

Waking up the next morning, Jiang Mu stared at the face in front of him in a daze. After two or three seconds, he suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Geng Yan!!" Jiang Mu shouted angrily.

Geng Yan was only wearing a pair of underpants. After opening his eyes, he looked at Jiang Mu sleepily, "You're awake."

Jiang Mu panicked and recalled last night, but he only remembered the scene where he was eating with Zhuang Xi. He subconsciously looked down at himself, and found that he was only wearing one underneath.

But fortunately, there is no abnormality in the body...

Jiang Mu quickly sat on the side of the bed, and quickly put the pajamas on the side on his body.

Geng Yan supported his head with one arm, and looked at Jiang Mu with a gentle face, "When I called you last night, Zhuang Xi answered the call. He said you were drunk, so I went to pick you up."

"Who told you...you to lie next to me like this." Jiang Mu was terrified in his heart. If something really happened last night, how should he explain to He Qianyan.

"I didn't do anything, but you kept hugging me last night, I almost lost control." Geng Yan said with a smile, "I will definitely not do anything that will make you angry, don't worry."

"I didn't allow you to sleep next to me..." Jiang Mu said angrily.

"You seemed very sad last night, and you cried afterwards... what happened?"

Of course Geng Yan knew what happened. He made a deal with He Qianyan, which made He Qianyan and Jiang Mu divorced. In his opinion, Jiang Mu must have been drunk last night because of this incident, and he was so drunk after getting drunk. as sad.

Jiang Mu didn't speak, got out of bed and went to the bathroom.

Geng Yan didn't even have any clothes on, so he followed to the door of the bathroom naked.

"Is it between you and He Qianyan..." Geng Yan asked cautiously.

"I divorced Brother Yan." Jiang Mu turned to look at Geng Yan, "Are you satisfied now?"

"Really? He actually divorced you. Why did he divorce you? How long have you been married?" Geng Yan pretended to be serious, "Speaking of which, this matter has nothing to do with me, so don't blame me superior."

Jiang Mu was almost laughed at by Geng Yan's stupid skill, but according to the plan, Jiang Mu really shouldn't know the deal between He Qianyan and Geng Yan, he was unilaterally kicked by He Qianyan, so He Qianyan fell in love with Changlu Group's daughter named Mingming.

"I'm in a bad mood right now, and I don't want to see anyone." Jiang Mu said, "Get dressed and leave."

"Then you are single now, can I pursue you?" Geng Yan asked cautiously.

"Please leave."

"Your mood is very unstable now, I have to guard you every step of the way." Geng Yan said, "What if you do something stupid?"

"……up to you."

Geng Yan really stayed with Jiang Mu every step of the way. After Jiang Mu washed up and had some breakfast, he was afraid that he would reveal something when he was alone with Geng Yan, so he went to bed again after dinner and covered himself with the quilt.

He had to look sad enough to convince Geng Yan that he had indeed broken with He Qianyan now.

Geng Yan sat by the bed for a long time, and lay down from time to time, hugging Jiang Mu through the quilt.

"I will accompany you from now on." Geng Yan said softly.

Jiang Mu only felt a chill shrouded his whole body. He knew that at the moment when the lie was shattered, he would be hated by this gentle and affectionate man gnashing his teeth.

Near noon, Geng Yan answered the phone and left. Before leaving, he told Jiang Mu that he would come back to accompany him tomorrow.

In the evening, Jiang Mu finally waited for He Qianyan's call.

He Qianyan told him that the plan ended perfectly.

"I'll ask my assistant Asan to pick you up, and he'll send you to my villa in the suburbs." He Qian said, "You live there for a while, don't contact anyone."

Jiang Mu clenched the phone tightly, and said anxiously, "Geng Yan, does he know now, will he... Will he be on his way to settle accounts with me?"

"He doesn't know yet, and you don't need to tell him the truth for the time being. You just tell him that you are going on a trip and you will come back after a while. This will delay him for a while."

"But...but he will always look for me."

"Let's talk about it after this period of time. The main reason is that I don't want you to have any contact with him, otherwise I won't think about hiding you."

With the backlog of the fear of being recruited by Geng Yan to settle accounts, Jiang Mu now regards He Qianyan as the only reliable person.

In the evening, Ah Shen came over. He was a burly man with an indifferent face. He had no expression in his speech, but his tone was very polite.

Jiang Mu packed a suitcase, and Asan helped him carry it downstairs.

After getting in the car, Jiang Mu sent the edited text message to Geng Yan, saying that he was in a bad mood and would go on a trip for a while, and he would come back when his mood recovered.

Then Jiang Mu sent another short message to Zhuang Xi, to the effect that he had to go out for a few days and asked him to help take care of the dumplings and briquettes.

Before Jiang Mu had time to turn off the phone, Geng Yan's call came in.

Jiang Mu pondered for a few seconds, then connected the phone.

Geng Yan on the other end of the phone kept asking Jiang Mu where he was going, sounding flustered, as if he was afraid that Jiang Mu would be overwhelmed, and expressed that he would go with Jiang Mu.

Hearing Geng Yan's anxious and hurried voice, Jiang Mu felt even more guilty. He comforted Geng Yan for a long time, but Geng Yan wanted to ask him the destination of his trip. In the end, Jiang Mu had no choice but to hang up the phone with a few words in a hurry. , and quickly turn off the phone.

A Shen handed a new mobile phone to Jiang Mu, and said, "Xiao Jiang, Mr. He asked me to give it to you. He asked you to use this new mobile phone for the time being so as not to be disturbed."

Jiang Mu took the new mobile phone that was handed over.

"Then I will hand over your own mobile phone to Mr. He." A Shen stretched out his hand to Jiang Mu.

Jiang Mu was stunned for a moment, "Do you want this phone too?"

"This is Mr. He's request." Asan said coldly, "Is there any inconvenience for Mr. Jiang?"

"No... no."
