The interstellar admiral has become a cannon fodder star [System]
Chapter 49 Despicable people
Su Baiwei found that once he was in front of Li Heng, his emotions would easily fluctuate.
Especially when Li Heng looked at him with that kind of mocking eyes again, Su Baiwei felt more strongly the feeling of being teased.
He slapped Li Heng's hand away vigorously, and stood up from the chair with a bang.He didn't want to look at Li Heng, but he didn't accuse Li Heng of being frivolous like before.
Just standing there with his chin down and his eyes down, his whole body showed an unnatural tense state.
"Hiss." Li Heng saw a red mark on the back of his hand instantly, and smiled, "It's quite strong."
He glanced at the appalling dishes on the table, shrugged and said to Su Baiwei: "I did it seriously, and I didn't mean to tease you, but you said that they all grew like this, who would have thought that you were so serious?" eat?"
"..."
"Shall I get you some Buddha Jumping Over the Wall? I think that's okay."
"..."
"Forget it, if you really don't want to eat it, I'll make you something else to eat? But you can also see that my craftsmanship is just like this, it's really not good, or you can..."
Li Heng stopped in the middle of speaking.
He talked for a long time alone, but Su Baiwei didn't respond at all.
Li Heng originally wanted to take the opportunity to coax Su Baiwei to cook for himself, but looking up at this man, he felt that now was not a good time to do the task.
Su Baiwei kept his chin buried and refused to make a sound.Looking at it from Li Heng's point of view, he could only see his soft hair twirling, and his gently clenched hands on both sides, but he couldn't see Su Baiwei's expression.
At first Li Heng thought he was shy, but Su Baiwei didn't respond after a few words, and Li Heng felt that something was wrong.
"What's wrong."
Li Heng quickly walked around the dining table and walked to Su Baiwei's side. Thinking of Su Baiwei's inconsistency and reticence before, he was worried that he would get into trouble with him again, and the completion of the task would definitely be delayed. .
So without thinking about it, he bent down, lowered his body and attitude, and asked softly, "Are you angry?"
Next, he wanted to say "I can't do it", but he was afraid of offending Su Baiwei, so he swallowed it.
It's just that even though Li Heng has lowered his attitude to this extent, Su Baiwei doesn't seem to want to have a good talk with him.
"No."
He took a step back, but still did not lift his head.There was indeed no emotion in the voice, and it was even too cold, just saying,
"You remember to clean up the kitchen. I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
Su Baiwei really didn't become angry just because he was teased a little by Li Heng.
His aphasia was just because he really couldn't find a reasonable explanation for why he had to travel all the way to be teased by Li Heng.
Su Baiwei is now in the Su Clan, and it can be said that he is besieged on all sides and cannot protect himself. He even ran back from the city center all the way to take care of Li Heng's disappointment and regret.
Is he missing this meal, or is he missing that piece of meat?
Especially Li Heng still had such a provocative and frivolous appearance, Su Baiwei felt that he was being led away by the nose, and he was a little short of breath.
And when Li Heng asked him "what's the matter", how could Su Baiwei answer.
Things that he didn't even think about, he could only continue to hold back in his heart, like a mess of threads, constantly entangled in his mind, with no clue or result.
So Su Baiwei wanted to escape again.
After he dropped that sentence, he was about to turn around.
Only this time, Li Heng held him back somewhat forcefully, not letting him run away.
"Su Baiwei, tell me how many times this is..."
Li Heng's voice was deep, but not too fierce. He even said with a helpless smile,
"What are you thinking, I have to say it before I know."
"...I said no."
Su Baiwei is still tight-lipped.
He was afraid that his thoughts that he hadn't had time to clarify would be unscrupulous in the face of Li Heng.
In the next second, the force of the hand being pulled suddenly increased.
Without paying attention, Su Baiwei was dragged back severely by Li Heng, and his whole body slammed into Li Heng's body.
Immediately afterwards, the back of his head was gently supported by Li Heng's palm.
Raising his head with strength, Su Baiwei saw Li Heng looking at himself with raised eyebrows, and asked with a frown: "Do I have to guess?"
"No."
"Not a fart."
Li Heng had seen through Su Baiwei's stubborn temper a long time ago, and now he was so focused on "enhancing the relationship" with Su Baiwei, how could he let him go casually.
But after saying this, he also realized that his attitude was a bit tough, which was not conducive to his plan, so he changed the subject and his tone became milder:
"I'm not trying to kill you, I'm afraid you will leave."
After Su Baiwei heard his words, he was stunned, and the back of his neck was a little stiff: "What... what..."
"Actually, I just want to have dinner with you. It's just that it's too difficult to cook. It took me a whole day to make it like this. I know this is really unsatisfactory, but it has improved compared to the beginning. Why don't you give me some more time?"
Su Baiwei: "..."
After hearing such words, he felt that his chaotic threads became even more chaotic, so he could only stumble and say, "If you want to eat, you can... go out to eat."
"It's because you have a kitchen that you don't use, and you always go out to eat. Look at the cold look of this house, how does it look like a home?"
Li Heng put his hand on Su Baiwei's neck indiscriminately, feeling that he was trembling slightly, so he rubbed Su Baiwei's chin with his fingertips, and said,
"Isn't it good for us to cook and eat together?"
Su Bai's expression froze slightly, and a trace of daze rose in his eyes: "... huh?"
"It's best that you come home every day from now on, and come with me—"
Li Heng originally wanted to repeat it again to play a role of coaxing.
But before he could say the last few words, Su Baiwei suddenly raised his hand and covered his mouth.
"Well…?"
Of course Su Baiwei's strength was no stronger than his, but Li Heng didn't break free.
He just looked at Su Baiwei in confusion, waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation: why did he cover his mouth?
What Li Heng didn't know was that at this moment, Su Baiwei's brain went blank:
What did he say?
Family?
Li Heng actually calls this occasional place "home"?
What else did you say that you were afraid of him leaving, wanted to cook with him, and asked him to go home every day...
This is something that would make people laugh just by looking at it literally, but Li Heng actually said it so seriously? !
Su Baiwei suddenly thought wildly:
Could it be because I have never terminated the contract, because I have been hesitant and backed down every time regarding Li Heng's matter, so that Li Heng misunderstood that there is a possibility of further development between them...?
He has always been used to being alone, always alone.It never occurred to him to get entangled with anyone.
Su Baiwei had to admit that he was always clueless about Li Heng's affairs, but this did not mean that the relationship between them would become such an unclear relationship.
Just thinking about it, a certain string in Su Baiwei's mind tensed slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
When he spoke, he didn't realize how flustered his tone was, and he wanted to cover Li Heng's mouth tightly, not daring to let this man say any more shocking words,
"This is just for you to spend the night here. It's not a home... I, I don't have so much time to come back every day. If you want to cook, you can use the kitchen if you want. I can't be with you."
As he spoke, the tips of his ears began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Li Heng: "..."
Did he discover my plot?
Su Baiwei hesitated and continued: "The contract... will be terminated sooner or later when I finish my work. Also, you should move out as soon as you recover from your injury. I will let you live here , just out of... just wanting to help you! It's not other meanings... don't say these strange words in the future."
Hearing what he said, Li Heng felt that his mission was far away, so he wanted to speak.
As a result, before he even opened his mouth, he felt Su Baiwei's palm press hard——
Li Heng: "Huh?"
"You are not allowed to speak!"
Su Baiwei raised his voice unconsciously, bit his lower lip, and looked at Li Heng fiercely.
Seeing that he reacted so strongly, Li Heng could only follow him and raised his hand to say OK.
"..."
"..."
Li Heng did not speak according to his idea, but Su Baiwei himself fell silent.
The two remained eerily still in a strange posture.
After a while, when the atmosphere became stagnant to the point of embarrassment, Li Heng found the opportunity to hold Su Baiwei's wrist, and slowly pressed down on his hand, gaining some room for his mouth to speak.
"I'm now..." Li Heng cleared his throat and asked with a smile, "Can I talk?"
Su Bai withdrew his hand slightly, pushed him, and turned his head away in embarrassment, as if he wanted to flee the scene immediately.
"Relax, I know what you mean."
Li Heng took the initiative to retreat half a step, raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and laughed a little self-deprecatingly,
"But you look tired, stay and rest. If you don't feel comfortable just being with me, I can go."
It was getting dark, and the street lamps came on one by one.
Li Heng was sitting on the grass not far from the villa in Banshan, idly looking at the dark and deserted street.
[Mr. Host, why are you really leaving? 】
The system really doesn't understand, 【The more he said that, the more he wavered.In fact, he is a person who is very afraid of being alone. The protagonist Gong in the original text discovered this, and he was able to capture his heart later! 】
At night in early autumn, there were no mosquitoes, and there was even a little bit of coolness when the wind blew up.
After hearing what the system said, Li Heng yawned, as if he was completely uninterested in what it said.
【Okay, I get it now!Does Mr. Host want to make progress by retreating, and when Su Baiwei comes back later and feels that he is too indifferent to you, he will be touched, and then take the initiative to call you to go back—]
When the system was speculating about Li Heng's intentions, it suddenly saw Li Heng take out his phone and turn it off before the last sound of the final word landed on it.
system:【? ] I can no longer understand the various operations of my host.
Li Heng shrugged his shoulders expressionlessly, and said, "You guessed right, it is indeed advancing by retreating."
[Then what's the matter with you turning off the phone? ! 】The system jumps, 【He can't even find you, how can you retreat to advance? 】
Li Heng didn't answer him, but skipped the topic and asked a question:
"Let me not forget what you have prepared."
The system froze for a moment, and then immediately said: [This is a critical moment for our life and death, of course we have not forgotten it!Just wait for the host to give an order. 】
Li Heng raised his hand to look at the time on his watch, then looked at the gray sky, and said:
"In half an hour, let's start."
Before the age of 15, Su Baiwei still firmly believed that he was a member of the Su family.
When he was bullied by Su Feng, he would still coax himself: his elder brother is a spoiled child, so it is understandable for him to be willful and domineering.But they are always a family, so they should be sensible.
In a sense, Su Feng is the only one who remembers Bai Wei's birthday.
Because when he was a teenager, every November 11th, Su Feng would try his best to make something happen, so that the whole family would forget that there was a child waiting for his birthday cake.
This feeling of unfulfilled expectations lasted until the age of 15.
The day Su Baiwei was locked in the garage, he finally dared to face the truth: no one in Su's family welcomed him.Not to mention that his birthday was forgotten, he was the one who was ignored from the beginning to the end.
It was pitch black in the garage that night, and even his own breathing echoed, and the cold air clung to his throat as if it had substance.
At that time, Su Baiwei didn't know what the source of fear was.
All he knew was that he couldn't breathe in the dark, his heart was beating out of rhythm like a convulsion, and his stomach was churning and throbbing incessantly.
Even when he saw the light again, he was never cured of his fear of the dark.
Later, the houses where Su Baiwei lived had a design that was different from other houses: dark lights were placed in every corner and crevice.
The subtle light is not enough to drive away anything, but it can make Su Baiwei feel at ease.
It's not that he can't accept the dark at all, but he can't fall into complete darkness for a long time. Even when sleeping, he must have at least one light source in order to fall asleep slowly.
Once the light is lost, Su Baiwei will be eroded by the cold pain of the past.
But he had bid farewell to this fear for a long time, almost forgetting the pain of suffocation.
Until now...
"If you don't feel comfortable just staying with me, I can go."
When Su Baiwei watched Li Heng leave without turning his head, he was still in a state of confusion and difficulty.
My own feelings for Li Heng, and Li Heng's attitude towards him, all kinds of cranky thoughts entangled him in the whirlpool and he couldn't extricate himself.
How could he guess at the moment, but within half an hour, these things that bothered him would be forgotten.
……
Su Baiwei was in the bathroom when the whole house lost power without warning.
The warm water poured from the top of his head allowed him to relieve the tense emotions he had been tense all day.
But the next moment, darkness overwhelmed the sky.
The entire misty bathroom became cramped and damp because of the absence of light.Su Baiwei was stunned for a while, then stepped on the water at a very fast speed and wanted to run out——
In any case, even if it's just a faint moonlight, at least let him see something.
But the paralysis of the body came very quickly, this kind of muscle memory out of self-consciousness locked Su Baiwei's footsteps.
He only took two or three steps before he couldn't walk anymore.Limbs began to stiffen with an uncontrollable tendency, and it became difficult to even raise the arms.
Su Baiwei half-kneeled on the ground, groping his arms along the wet and cold wall, but even if he touched the light switch, no matter how he pressed it, it didn't work.
Confirming that he was surrounded by darkness, Su Baiwei suddenly thought inappropriately:
I should have showered in the first floor bathroom, which at least has a window.
[Mr. Host, I can't check Su Baiwei's picture, so I can only go back and see his situation in person before proceeding to the next step. 】
After the system cut off the circuit of the villa, it reminded Li Heng.
"Ah."
Li Heng agreed, but didn't leave.
He learned some of Su Baiwei's weaknesses from the background of the early character stories, which was a breakthrough for him to complete the task.
But Li Heng was not so sure that he could really be ruthless.
From the perspective of an outsider, Li Heng, what Su Baiwei experienced at Su's house was also a cruel past.
What I encountered when I was young was not an old disease that could be cured so easily.
But now, in order to survive, Li Heng had no choice but to make a bad move.
Su Baiwei's attitude towards him fluctuated up and down, and it was not easy to handle, so he had to rely on Su Baiwei's weakness and helplessness to draw in the relationship between the two and speed up the progress of the task.
Li Heng is not easy to soften his heart.
But still soft-hearted.
[Mr. Host, are you still leaving? 】
The system couldn't figure out what Li Heng's plan was, so it asked, [In the original text, Su Baiwei's shadow on this matter is quite deep, if he doesn't arrive in time, he may lose his life due to severe stress reaction in this situation. Consciousness, then you can't be a hero to save the beauty. 】
Li Heng was silent for a moment, as if making up his mind, closed his eyes, and then stood up from the ground.
"Let's go."
He didn't leave the house too far, but walked back in just 2 minutes.
From the moment Li Heng entered the gate, he searched for Su Baiwei in the house until he found out where Su Baiwei was and came to the door of the bathroom.
His expression was always a little indifferent.
This kind of indifference is different from Li Heng's expressionless face in the past, and even the system can detect that there seems to be something wrong with its host.
His eyes were so cold that it was like a heavy snowfall in winter, anyone who looked at them would be frostbitten to the bones.
Li Heng stood at the door of the bathroom, staring at the door that separated him from Su Baiwei, feeling the sound of Su Baiwei's disordered breathing coming from the bathroom in the silence.
Weeping and sobbing were mixed in between.
[Mr. Host, he is currently experiencing great mood swings, but his consciousness is weak, and he has lost the ability to save himself.This is the perfect situation for you to show up out of the blue to lend a helping hand.As long as you help him this time, he will definitely rely on you, just like the scene where he develops feelings for the protagonist Gong in the original text. 】
The system said happily.
For it, Li Heng's ability to attract Su Baiwei is a guarantee for the mission.
There is not much time left for them, Li Heng must hit the target, and right now is the best chance.
After the system finished speaking, Li Heng's eyes sank.
It wasn't until Su Baiwei's breathing trembled and his weeping became more and more obvious that Li Heng raised his eyelids.
【Indeed, as long as I help him, he will rely on me. ] Li Heng suddenly said without beginning or end, 【Just like he used to rely on Si He. 】
Then, he pushed open the bathroom door.
With the help of the system, Li Heng was able to see clearly that wet Su Baiwei in the dark——
His thin and thin body curled up on the ground, his whole body tensed while shivering.The drops of water mixed with the cold sweat that had just taken a shower wrapped that delicate and fair skin, making him look as tender and pitiful as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
After realizing that someone was coming in, Su Bai twitched and trembled and slowly raised his head, his eyes were red and foggy.
"Su Baiwei." Li Heng called him.
Although Su Baiwei's night vision became weak due to stress, his eyes still found Li Heng's direction accurately through the sound.
As if he was trying to find the possibility of being rescued with his remaining strength when his brain was confused, he weakly called out his name.
"Li... Heng..."
Li Heng, who was called by name, felt a slowly spreading anxiety.
He walked towards Su Baiwei, and his cold gaze fell on Su Baiwei as if it had warmed up.
"It's me, I'm here."
Li Heng squatted down and hugged Su Baiwei's stiff and cold body, at that moment he thought:
I turned out to be such a mean person.
At the moment when he was completely shrouded in darkness, Su Baiwei began to feel a stomachache because of fear, his whole body convulsed, his brain was blank and his consciousness was weak, and his limbs lost strength.
Even though he knew that the door to the bathroom was just a step away, he couldn't stand up.
The memory seems to return to the year when he was 15 years old, and the house he saw was a dark abyss.
One step forward, there is no place for Su's family to stay, he will be torn to pieces at any time.Taking a step back, his mother's high hopes pierced his heart like a thousand arrows, and his internal organs were pierced.
Su Baiwei was like stepping on a piece of floating soil, ready to fall anytime.
He knew that he was a terminally ill person, and the way he used to hide his hollow heart disease was to pretend to care about those powers, and he fought and snatched them every step of the way.
But his heart was empty.
So in this darkness, his incompleteness was exposed more and more, and all his fears and anxieties were exposed.
Everything he pursued could not save him.
Can anyone give him a grip?
Or is there anyone who can save his life?
No.
No one ever saved him.
He wanted to give up, whether it was the endless fighting, or the self-struggle in the dark——
He doesn't want to continue.
At this moment, the door of the bathroom suddenly opened.
who is coming?
To save him, or to kill him?
"Su Baiwei."
The man suddenly called his name.
A familiar voice, low and hoarse, echoed in his ears.Like a dream, but more real than a dream.So close, yet so unpredictable.
A face appeared in his mind, and Su Baiwei subconsciously called out that person's name:
"Li... Heng..."
He felt the other party approaching step by step,
Feeling a pair of hands wrapping around his sinking body, stripping him from this viscous fear.
Su Baiwei was in a trance, opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound.
Afterwards, the man held him in his arms, leaned into his ear and said:
"It's me, I'm here."
Especially when Li Heng looked at him with that kind of mocking eyes again, Su Baiwei felt more strongly the feeling of being teased.
He slapped Li Heng's hand away vigorously, and stood up from the chair with a bang.He didn't want to look at Li Heng, but he didn't accuse Li Heng of being frivolous like before.
Just standing there with his chin down and his eyes down, his whole body showed an unnatural tense state.
"Hiss." Li Heng saw a red mark on the back of his hand instantly, and smiled, "It's quite strong."
He glanced at the appalling dishes on the table, shrugged and said to Su Baiwei: "I did it seriously, and I didn't mean to tease you, but you said that they all grew like this, who would have thought that you were so serious?" eat?"

[Then what's the matter with you turning off the phone? ! 】The system jumps, 【He can't even find you, how can you retreat to advance? 】
Li Heng didn't answer him, but skipped the topic and asked a question:
"Let me not forget what you have prepared."
The system froze for a moment, and then immediately said: [This is a critical moment for our life and death, of course we have not forgotten it!Just wait for the host to give an order. 】
Li Heng raised his hand to look at the time on his watch, then looked at the gray sky, and said:
"In half an hour, let's start."
Before the age of 15, Su Baiwei still firmly believed that he was a member of the Su family.
When he was bullied by Su Feng, he would still coax himself: his elder brother is a spoiled child, so it is understandable for him to be willful and domineering.But they are always a family, so they should be sensible.
In a sense, Su Feng is the only one who remembers Bai Wei's birthday.
Because when he was a teenager, every November 11th, Su Feng would try his best to make something happen, so that the whole family would forget that there was a child waiting for his birthday cake.
This feeling of unfulfilled expectations lasted until the age of 15.
The day Su Baiwei was locked in the garage, he finally dared to face the truth: no one in Su's family welcomed him.Not to mention that his birthday was forgotten, he was the one who was ignored from the beginning to the end.
It was pitch black in the garage that night, and even his own breathing echoed, and the cold air clung to his throat as if it had substance.
At that time, Su Baiwei didn't know what the source of fear was.
All he knew was that he couldn't breathe in the dark, his heart was beating out of rhythm like a convulsion, and his stomach was churning and throbbing incessantly.
Even when he saw the light again, he was never cured of his fear of the dark.
Later, the houses where Su Baiwei lived had a design that was different from other houses: dark lights were placed in every corner and crevice.
The subtle light is not enough to drive away anything, but it can make Su Baiwei feel at ease.
It's not that he can't accept the dark at all, but he can't fall into complete darkness for a long time. Even when sleeping, he must have at least one light source in order to fall asleep slowly.
Once the light is lost, Su Baiwei will be eroded by the cold pain of the past.
But he had bid farewell to this fear for a long time, almost forgetting the pain of suffocation.
Until now...
"If you don't feel comfortable just staying with me, I can go."
When Su Baiwei watched Li Heng leave without turning his head, he was still in a state of confusion and difficulty.
My own feelings for Li Heng, and Li Heng's attitude towards him, all kinds of cranky thoughts entangled him in the whirlpool and he couldn't extricate himself.
How could he guess at the moment, but within half an hour, these things that bothered him would be forgotten.
……
Su Baiwei was in the bathroom when the whole house lost power without warning.
The warm water poured from the top of his head allowed him to relieve the tense emotions he had been tense all day.
But the next moment, darkness overwhelmed the sky.
The entire misty bathroom became cramped and damp because of the absence of light.Su Baiwei was stunned for a while, then stepped on the water at a very fast speed and wanted to run out——
In any case, even if it's just a faint moonlight, at least let him see something.
But the paralysis of the body came very quickly, this kind of muscle memory out of self-consciousness locked Su Baiwei's footsteps.
He only took two or three steps before he couldn't walk anymore.Limbs began to stiffen with an uncontrollable tendency, and it became difficult to even raise the arms.
Su Baiwei half-kneeled on the ground, groping his arms along the wet and cold wall, but even if he touched the light switch, no matter how he pressed it, it didn't work.
Confirming that he was surrounded by darkness, Su Baiwei suddenly thought inappropriately:
I should have showered in the first floor bathroom, which at least has a window.
[Mr. Host, I can't check Su Baiwei's picture, so I can only go back and see his situation in person before proceeding to the next step. 】
After the system cut off the circuit of the villa, it reminded Li Heng.
"Ah."
Li Heng agreed, but didn't leave.
He learned some of Su Baiwei's weaknesses from the background of the early character stories, which was a breakthrough for him to complete the task.
But Li Heng was not so sure that he could really be ruthless.
From the perspective of an outsider, Li Heng, what Su Baiwei experienced at Su's house was also a cruel past.
What I encountered when I was young was not an old disease that could be cured so easily.
But now, in order to survive, Li Heng had no choice but to make a bad move.
Su Baiwei's attitude towards him fluctuated up and down, and it was not easy to handle, so he had to rely on Su Baiwei's weakness and helplessness to draw in the relationship between the two and speed up the progress of the task.
Li Heng is not easy to soften his heart.
But still soft-hearted.
[Mr. Host, are you still leaving? 】
The system couldn't figure out what Li Heng's plan was, so it asked, [In the original text, Su Baiwei's shadow on this matter is quite deep, if he doesn't arrive in time, he may lose his life due to severe stress reaction in this situation. Consciousness, then you can't be a hero to save the beauty. 】
Li Heng was silent for a moment, as if making up his mind, closed his eyes, and then stood up from the ground.
"Let's go."
He didn't leave the house too far, but walked back in just 2 minutes.
From the moment Li Heng entered the gate, he searched for Su Baiwei in the house until he found out where Su Baiwei was and came to the door of the bathroom.
His expression was always a little indifferent.
This kind of indifference is different from Li Heng's expressionless face in the past, and even the system can detect that there seems to be something wrong with its host.
His eyes were so cold that it was like a heavy snowfall in winter, anyone who looked at them would be frostbitten to the bones.
Li Heng stood at the door of the bathroom, staring at the door that separated him from Su Baiwei, feeling the sound of Su Baiwei's disordered breathing coming from the bathroom in the silence.
Weeping and sobbing were mixed in between.
[Mr. Host, he is currently experiencing great mood swings, but his consciousness is weak, and he has lost the ability to save himself.This is the perfect situation for you to show up out of the blue to lend a helping hand.As long as you help him this time, he will definitely rely on you, just like the scene where he develops feelings for the protagonist Gong in the original text. 】
The system said happily.
For it, Li Heng's ability to attract Su Baiwei is a guarantee for the mission.
There is not much time left for them, Li Heng must hit the target, and right now is the best chance.
After the system finished speaking, Li Heng's eyes sank.
It wasn't until Su Baiwei's breathing trembled and his weeping became more and more obvious that Li Heng raised his eyelids.
【Indeed, as long as I help him, he will rely on me. ] Li Heng suddenly said without beginning or end, 【Just like he used to rely on Si He. 】
Then, he pushed open the bathroom door.
With the help of the system, Li Heng was able to see clearly that wet Su Baiwei in the dark——
His thin and thin body curled up on the ground, his whole body tensed while shivering.The drops of water mixed with the cold sweat that had just taken a shower wrapped that delicate and fair skin, making him look as tender and pitiful as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
After realizing that someone was coming in, Su Bai twitched and trembled and slowly raised his head, his eyes were red and foggy.
"Su Baiwei." Li Heng called him.
Although Su Baiwei's night vision became weak due to stress, his eyes still found Li Heng's direction accurately through the sound.
As if he was trying to find the possibility of being rescued with his remaining strength when his brain was confused, he weakly called out his name.
"Li... Heng..."
Li Heng, who was called by name, felt a slowly spreading anxiety.
He walked towards Su Baiwei, and his cold gaze fell on Su Baiwei as if it had warmed up.
"It's me, I'm here."
Li Heng squatted down and hugged Su Baiwei's stiff and cold body, at that moment he thought:
I turned out to be such a mean person.
At the moment when he was completely shrouded in darkness, Su Baiwei began to feel a stomachache because of fear, his whole body convulsed, his brain was blank and his consciousness was weak, and his limbs lost strength.
Even though he knew that the door to the bathroom was just a step away, he couldn't stand up.
The memory seems to return to the year when he was 15 years old, and the house he saw was a dark abyss.
One step forward, there is no place for Su's family to stay, he will be torn to pieces at any time.Taking a step back, his mother's high hopes pierced his heart like a thousand arrows, and his internal organs were pierced.
Su Baiwei was like stepping on a piece of floating soil, ready to fall anytime.
He knew that he was a terminally ill person, and the way he used to hide his hollow heart disease was to pretend to care about those powers, and he fought and snatched them every step of the way.
But his heart was empty.
So in this darkness, his incompleteness was exposed more and more, and all his fears and anxieties were exposed.
Everything he pursued could not save him.
Can anyone give him a grip?
Or is there anyone who can save his life?
No.
No one ever saved him.
He wanted to give up, whether it was the endless fighting, or the self-struggle in the dark——
He doesn't want to continue.
At this moment, the door of the bathroom suddenly opened.
who is coming?
To save him, or to kill him?
"Su Baiwei."
The man suddenly called his name.
A familiar voice, low and hoarse, echoed in his ears.Like a dream, but more real than a dream.So close, yet so unpredictable.
A face appeared in his mind, and Su Baiwei subconsciously called out that person's name:
"Li... Heng..."
He felt the other party approaching step by step,
Feeling a pair of hands wrapping around his sinking body, stripping him from this viscous fear.
Su Baiwei was in a trance, opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound.
Afterwards, the man held him in his arms, leaned into his ear and said:
"It's me, I'm here."
