compulsory possession

It turned out to be He Cong.

Time has changed, but he is still as handsome as ever.Li Beiyan's breathing stopped. He thought about ten thousand scenes of reuniting with He Cong, but he never expected it to be tonight, at school.

Li Beiyan's body was like a machine that had been pulled out of its clockwork. He stood stiffly in place, full of thoughts, but when he reached his mouth, there was nothing, and he couldn't say anything.

"Are you He Nian's teacher?"

He Cong spoke in a steady bass.The unfamiliar tone and the alienated eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses made Li Beiyan's heart ache and he forgot to respond.

"teacher?"

What... what does he want to do?Talk to yourself with this strange look.Glasses, what happened to his eyes, why is there a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose?

"Excuse me, is He Nian in there?" He Cong raised his voice, interrupting Li Beiyan's thoughts.

"Yes, he fell asleep."

Li Beiyan watched He Cong go in, and came out of the office with He Nian in his arms. His arms were warm and warm. The child found a comfortable position in his arms, rubbed against his chest, and fell asleep again.

After He Cong finished this series of actions, Li Beiyan suddenly remembered that his embrace used to be his own.

"I'm really sorry today, please trouble the teacher."

"Are you from He Nian?"

"I am his father."

"..."

"Thank you teacher, I will take the child back first."

Those two words were slapped heavily on Li Beiyan's heart like a stormy sea.

his son.

When did He Cong have an eight-year-old son!

Li Beiyan froze in place, watching He Cong give a slight signal with the unfamiliar eyes of the first meeting, and left with the child in his arms.

Li Beiyan was stuck in place by his indifference, and when he wanted to chase after him, he only saw the car leaving at the dark school gate.

The security guard at the door greeted Li Beiyan, but Li Beiyan didn't hear what he said. He lowered his head and searched for He Cong's name on the search engine.There is nothing, He Cong seems to have disappeared from the world in the past three years, there is no news, even the pornographic news from the past has completely disappeared.

It seems that he has never been the tycoon in the entertainment industry, not the uncle who has guarded Li Beiyan for more than ten years since he was a child.

It seemed that someone reached out and wiped away the traces of He Cong.

Li Beiyan called Cheng Xia, and he could hear the tremor in his voice.

Cheng Xia was silent for a while, then said flatly: "Bei Yan, don't see him again, He Cong is no longer the person you knew before."

"He appeared in front of me, he doesn't know me anymore, do you understand Cheng Xia, he doesn't even know my name!"

Li Beiyan didn't notice it himself, his tone was full of unwillingness and heavy grievance.

He Cong must be pretending.

Because she hated herself for running away from him, she pretended to have a son and pretended not to know him.

"Bei Yan... You have been away for three years, do you still want He Cong to miss you? Isn't this what you expected?"

When did Cheng Xia become so cruel?

He mercilessly pierced Li Beiyan's self-esteem, dragged him under the sun, dried the last drop of water, and tore apart the truth hidden under the skin.

After leaving Beijing for so long, there is not a single day when Li Beiyan does not miss He Cong.He loves him.

His affection for He Cong can't be blown away even by the desert wind and sand, nor can the strong wind from the northwest blow it away.

How could He Cong pretend not to know him...

The whole night, Li Beiyan lay on the bed tossing and turning without feeling sleepy, a crazy voice in his heart urged him to find He Cong.

Li Beiyan asked for leave from the school to drive to find him. Before he opened the car door, his head was suddenly covered by the bag behind him. Someone tied Li Beiyan's hands and pushed him into the car.

Is it He Cong?

Li Beiyan was the first to suspect him, because he had too many criminal records.He was brought to a wide place, and the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor could be heard.

"Untie him." A familiar male voice came over.

The bound body was finally liberated, and the vision was like a lens wet by rain, with no clear picture, only a blurred and crooked figure.

It took a long time for Li Beiyan to barely see the cold expression on the face of the man surrounded by him.He tried his best to compare him with the person in his memory, except for the faint aura between his brows, he couldn't find the warm look back then.

"...Brother." Li Beiyan called him.

He Jin raised his eyes to look over, his eyes were cold, even with a hint of disgust.

"What are you doing back here?"

Li Beiyan had never seen He Jin look at him with such terrifying eyes. He didn't know that once he turned his face, he would be so indifferent.

He was so well protected by He Cong, and now that he is gone, the people who used to feel gentle drew a distance, and Li Beiyan realized that his relationship with them was actually not familiar at all.

"My mother is sick." Li Beiyan said.

He Jin held a white long-handled umbrella in his hand, and the pointed end poked on the floor, "I can't stop you from coming back, but you have to remember, you left by yourself back then, please leave my brother Stay away, and don't have any contact with him. Otherwise, I will let you enter Beijing vertically and carry it out horizontally."

The person who threatens others with a blank face is the real He Jin. It is not easy to become a core official at this age, whether it is ambition or means.

"..." Li Beiyan couldn't tell if he would go to He Cong.

He Jin frowned, and said in a harsh voice, "Since you dared to abandon him three years ago, don't act like you regret it three years later. It's just disgusting."

He stood there with his back very straight. He was no longer the big brother who gave Li Beiyan a thick stack of red envelopes and punched him when he learned that He Cong bullied Li Beiyan.

He Jin hated him, hated him, after he left He Cong.

"Don't worry, even if I look for him, he won't bother me anymore."

Emotions can lie, but eyes can't.When He Cong looked at Li Beiyan, he was clearly looking at a stranger.

Three years...

So long, so long that He Cong could meet different people countless times.So long that he can turn around without emotion and without a trace of nostalgia.

A bag of things was thrown head-on and hit Li Beiyan's face, and it fell to the ground and scattered. He squatted down and saw a stack of horrific photos.

"In the third month after you left, He Cong received the news that you were teaching in the frontier, and drove to the airport to find you."

Li Beiyan picked up the photos and saw bloody car accident scenes one after another. He Cong was lying in a pool of blood with injuries all over his body, and the blood in the corner of his eyes was even frozen.

"There was a car accident on the road, and he stayed in the ICU for a month. The corner of his left eye was scratched by the shards of the glass window, and his vision was affected."

So, he put on glasses.

"After coming out of the hospital, he still insisted on looking for you. My brother doesn't care about anything in his life, but you." He Jin, who is already 40 years old, put one hand in the pocket of his ironed trousers. He said in a cold tone: "I imprisoned him in the army and forcibly washed you out of his head. It took him half a year before he walked out of the army gate."

Li Beiyan once suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. What does it mean to be imprisoned in the army and forced to brainwash?He Cong is so rebellious, how could he be locked up in that kind of place?

He Jin stood in front of Li Beiyan, reminding him over and over again with a serious face, yes, the He family and the others had enough power to suppress the second son of the He family, torture him with countless means, and make him forget Li Beiyan.

That's why Li Beiyan could stay outside for three years without any hindrance.

He thought he hid it well, but in fact He Cong discovered it from the very beginning, and he didn't come because he couldn't come...

Like a poisonous snake, He Jin bit Li Beiyan hard. The wound was small but deep, and it was left out of sight, excruciatingly painful.

Li Beiyan squatted down dejectedly, picked up the photos and looked at them carefully one by one, until his eyes hurt from looking at them, he put his hand in his mouth and bit it a few times, the blood-red tooth marks reminded that all this was true.

Desperately, he went to find Cheng Xia, Cheng Xia had just withdrawn from the airtight business meeting, his tie was tied meticulously, he looked at the cold quartz watch on his wrist, and told Li Beiyan that there was still half an hour before the next meeting.

Li Beiyan cut to the chase and asked him, "You always knew about He Cong?"

He nodded, "Yes, I know."

"Why didn't you tell me all these years..."

Cheng Xia tore off the tie with one hand, and put it on the table. There was a work card in the pocket of the suit, which said General Manager.Li Beiyan realized later that in the past three years, Cheng Xia had also grown from a fool who loves to fight and fight, to a business tycoon in charge of his own business.

"After you left... He Cong found out that it was my brother who helped, and then frantically suppressed the Fu family in the shopping mall. The friendship between the He and Fu families for decades is because the two juniors fell out."

"During that time, he couldn't find you, and went out to drink every day... One time he came back from the bar and picked up an abandoned 5-year-old boy on the road. Someone asked him why he suddenly wanted to raise a child. He said... ..."

Cheng Xia paused, and said in a low voice: "Both are abandoned and unimportant little characters, no one came to save him...he can try to save others."

In an instant, Li Beiyan's throat was filled with soreness, his sadness became more and more painful, and tears glistened in his eyes.

He heard Cheng Xia say again: "It's just that after He Cong came back from the army, he forgot about the child. He Nian was officially adopted under his name, and the current situation in the He family is rather embarrassing. He Cong basically has nothing to do with him." How to take him."

A long paragraph of words like thunder, from the mouths of the two old friends, traveled through the elapsed time and finally fell into Li Beiyan's ears.

Cheng Xia no longer concealed the indifference in his tone, the watch refracted the sun's light on Li Beiyan's face, the bright light dazzled his eyes.

Li Beiyan, on the other hand, was like a traveler who accidentally stumbled into Mohe, where the glue was broken and his fingers fell. He felt that the mountains were cold and the water was cold, and his whole body was about to be frozen.

"I'm going in, you... go back." Cheng Xia stood up from her seat and walked to the meeting room.

Coming out of the office building, Li Beiyan's back can be regarded as fleeing.He sat alone in the car and smoked one after another. The car was too smoky, so Li Beiyan pressed down on the window.

A traffic patrolman came over and told him he couldn't stop here for too long. Li Beiyan lit the car with a cigarette in his mouth, and the burning flame landed on the back of his hand, causing blisters.

Li Beiyan felt nothing.

If he is 20 years old, facing the alienation of his old friends, he may be reluctant, argue with him or even feel wronged and start fighting.But now at the age of 30, Li Beiyan has nothing but a long sigh in his heart.

That's it, it's okay for He Cong to forget.

He let go of his obsession with him, and can be the shrewd mature man he was before.It's good that he doesn't have to hurt each other and linger to death.

After that day, Li Beiyan never met Cheng Xia again, and occasionally saw him update social networks, sometimes it was a cup of black coffee with a DSLR, or a rainy night in Beijing.

They are all growing up, from boys to men.

In autumn, a student sent a greeting card to Li Beiyan. After opening it, he realized that it was his birthday.The school issued cake coupons, and colleagues in the office smiled and wished Li Beiyan a happy birthday.

Li Beiyan hadn't heard this sentence on this day for a long time. No one in the Gobi Desert remembered, and they didn't want to remember this day, but he was getting older day by day.

After work, Li Beiyan drove to the store to pick up cakes. When he passed Sanlitun, he saw that the door plaque of the hot pot restaurant that used to be a booming business was replaced with cold English. It changed from a restaurant with a strong atmosphere of fireworks to a luxury brand. shop.

Countless well-dressed handsome men and beautiful women shuttled in the store, Li Beiyan suddenly remembered the spicy smell in the air when He Cong brought Li Beiyan here ten years ago.

No more.

Just because of Li Beiyan's words, he went to the mountain city for field investigation, and then went to Fayuan Temple to invite an expert to open the hot pot restaurant, which disappeared together with He Cong's memory.

An unspeakable sadness welled up from the bottom of Li Beiyan's heart.
