The hospital exudes the smell of disinfectant. Medical staff come and go in white coats. Outside the operating room, a man is wearing a loose baseball jacket with the zipper unzipped, revealing graffiti on his short-sleeved T-shirt. He is sitting on a bench, Holding the mobile phone in his hand, the lowered brim of the hat covered his eyebrows and eyes, and his tightly pursed lips leaked his emotional tension from time to time.

The words "in operation" above the operating room were lit in red, and the door was closed, so the situation inside could not be seen.

It's been hours.

Xiao Xu looked down at the time on the phone.

Today is the day of his mother's surgery, Ling Yi specially gave him a vacation.No matter how high the success rate of the operation is, it is always accompanied by danger, Xiao Xu inevitably has a heart hanging.

He pressed down the brim of his hat and closed his uncomfortable eyes.

The phone vibrated.

Ling Yi sent him a message.

[Ling Yi: How's the surgery going? 】

【Xiao Xu: It hasn't come out yet. 】

[Ling Yi: Don't worry too much. 】

It's impossible not to worry, Ling Yi, who is obviously comforting, looks a little clumsy, clumsy and cute.

【Xiao Xu: I'm fine. 】

After another hour or so, Ling Yi called. When the phone rang, Xiao Xu felt his heart skip a beat, and he realized that he was tense.

When the phone was connected, Ling Yi asked on the other end, "Where are you?"

Xiao Xu glanced at the operating room and said, "The door of the operating room."

Ling Yi seemed to be talking to the person next to him, and exchanged a few words. Xiao Xu only heard a few key words sporadically, saying words like "hospital" and "operating room".

After a while, Ling Yi said, "I'm at the hospital."

At the same time, the word "in operation" in the operating room went out, and Xiao Xu's expression went blank for a moment.

"ended."

The relief in this sentence, as well as the slight tremor at the end, shows that the owner of the words is not so calm.

Ling Yi stopped running: "What?"

Xiao Xu came back to her senses: "The operation is over."

Ling Yi: "I'll be right over."

The phone was not hung up, Xiao Xu took down the phone, the doctor in the operating room came out, and told him about the situation, the operation was successful, but for the time being, he had to be transferred to the ICU for observation, and he would be transferred to the general ward after 24 hours .

People came out from inside. Ms. Wu, who had just undergone surgery, was wearing an oxygen inhalation tube and hadn't woken up yet.

When Ling Yi found Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu was sitting in the corridor outside the door of the ward. He looked about the same as usual. If Ling Yi hadn't heard his tone on the phone earlier, he probably really thought he was so calm.

A pair of black leather shoes broke into Xiao Xu's line of sight, and the top was straight suit pants. Ling Yi trotted over before he had time to change his clothes after work, panting, with his suit jacket draped over his arms, his shirt and tie loose, Two buttons were undone.

"It's okay..."

Before he could say the last two words, Ling Yi was hugged by Xiao Xu, his leather shoes took several steps back on the smooth tiles, and another pair of sneakers was inserted between his pair of leather shoes.

Ling Yi's warm chest heaved and gasped, and Xiao Xu buried her head on his shoulder, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and took a deep breath. The faint smell of tobacco dispelled the smell of disinfectant that had been lingering at the tip of her nose, together with the last remaining All the bad emotions were dispelled.

The heart is like a shelf full of goods, and at this moment the things on the shelf are emptied and become relaxed again.

"You came early." Xiao Xu said, "You should have come later."

Before Ling Yi realized what he said, he heard Xiao Xu say again: "I can see my mother-in-law later."

Ling Yi: "..."

He was both helpless and speechless, and laughed, "You are really—"

"What's for dinner tonight?" Xiao Xu let go of him.

The topic changed too quickly, Ling Yi sat on a bench beside him: "Noodles, beef noodles."

"There is a delicious restaurant downstairs in my rented house."

"is it?"

"Want to try?"

"I can do it."

Ling Yi sounds very casual, but if you have lived with him, you will know that he is very picky.

Daily chatting can adjust Xiao Xu's mood, or because the person he chats with is Ling Yi, he can feel that Ling Yi is obviously following his words, as if taking care of his emotions.

It is rare, and it pokes at the soft spot in Xiao Xu's heart.

The little hedgehog's stomach is soft, and when it is spread out to be rubbed, it is really cute.

In the early stage of recuperation after the operation, Xiao Xu often ran to the hospital, and Ling Yi followed him a few times, but every time he was outside the ward door and did not go in.

Every time Xiao Xu went to the hospital to see his mother, he would not sit there for too long.

Wu Qingmei is recovering very well.

There were cicadas chirping outside the window in summer. In the hospital ward, the nurse was rounding the ward. When she walked to the door of a ward, she saw a man standing at the door. The man met her eyes and walked away from the door of the ward.

"To see a patient?" the nurse asked.

Ling Yi made a "hmm" and said, "I came with my friends."

The nurse smiled, and took a second look at the man in front of him because he was good-looking, and then took things into the ward.

In the ward, Xiao Xu was sitting by the bed. After the nurse came in, she said a few words about Wu Qingmei's situation to him, and then asked casually: "That one outside is your friend, why don't you come in and sit down together?"

Wu Qingmei and Xiao Xu looked at the nurse at the same time, and the nurse was puzzled: "I... did I say something wrong?"

There was no answer for a long time, so the nurse changed the conversation, and after checking the room, she left.

After the nurse left, Wu Qingmei asked, "Is your friend here too?"

"Well, he sent me here." Xiao Xu said, "My boss."

"Your boss is very nice." Wu Qingmei said, "The weather is very hot this summer, you will go out and buy some water for the boss later."

"it is good."

The car was parked in the parking space on the side of the road, the sun was a little hot, the air conditioner was turned on in the car, Ling Yi was sitting in the car, poking his phone to send a message, Xiao Xu opened the door outside.

"Boss, drink some water." The canned milk taken out of the refrigerator stuck to Ling Yi's face.

Ling Yi hid aside for a while, put the back of his hand on his face, the coolness of that area was still there, he took the milk that Xiao Xu gave him, looked at the red canned shell, and fell silent.

"Why give me milk?"

"Healthy." Xiao Xu got into the car.

Ling Yi glanced at him and threw the milk to him: "Don't drink it."

"It's wrong to be a picky eater." Xiao Xu opened the can of milk with a snap and stuffed it into his hand.

Ling Yi frowned in disgust: "It smells like milk."

Xiao Xu: "Milk doesn't just smell like milk, what more flavor do you want?"

Ling Yi: "..."

The corners of his lips curled up, he squeezed the milk reluctantly on his face, and took a sip from time to time, Xiao Xu got out of the car and went to the driver's seat, there was no driver today, so he acted as the driver.

Looking at the receding scenery outside the window, Ling Yi said, licking the milk on his lips, the sweet taste spread in his mouth.

The taste is also not bad.

Xiao Xu knew why Ling Yi didn't go to see his mother with him. He said that he could disclose the relationship between the two at any time. In fact, he didn't care about other people's eyes, but Ling Yi seemed impulsive, but he cared about someone seriously. He has more concerns than him, and even thinks more.

Today is Ling Yi's regular day to go to the gym. After leaving the hospital, they drove to the gym. The two spend most of the time together, and Xiao Xu has almost become Ling Yi's "personal trainer".

The gymnasium is fully equipped. In front of the huge mirror, the muscular man is doing strength training. Ling Yi moves his hands and sits and presses the barbell. Xiao Xu is carrying a water bottle, looking at him with a smile on his face, and harassing him with his hands and feet from time to time. , the excuse is very reasonable.

Ling Yi couldn't bear to be disturbed, he glanced at him with his long and narrow eyes, and threatened him: "Try touching again."

"Where to touch?" Xiao Xu asked lazily, "It's not good outside here."

Ling Yi: "..."

"Alas——Ling Yi!" A pleasantly surprised voice came from the side.

Xiao Xu withdrew her hand, stroked her drenched short black hair, and looked at the person who made the sound.

Four men came diagonally across from them, wearing tank tops, shorts, and headbands, but with thin arms and legs, they didn't look like people who came to exercise. Ling Yi put down the barbell, exhaled, and took Gu Xiaoxu took a sip of water from Xiao Xu's hand.

The people who came were all friends Ling Yi played with on weekdays.

Some people come to the gym to exercise, some people come to the gym to pick up girls, and these people are the latter.

Zhang's Second Young Master is a bit blessed, but he is young but has signs of baldness, and his hairline is worrying. He walked over with a smile, "It's a coincidence."

"Yo, the bodyguard brother is here too." Zhang Ershao came up and climbed onto Xiao Xu's shoulder, and raised his hand to pat his arm muscles, "This figure is fine—"

Before touching it, the hand was caught by the other hand.

"Don't touch blindly." Ling Yi threw away his hand like a firecracker with full firepower, and then slapped off his hand on Xiao Xu's shoulder, and pulled Xiao Xu to his side, declaring the meaning of sovereignty It is clear.

"No, Brother Ling, you won't let me touch just one bodyguard, and it's not your girlfriend." Zhang Ershao complained, "The elder brother of the bodyguard didn't say anything."

The title "brother" made Xiao Xu a little bit overwhelmed.

The three people next to him also laughed and joked.

"Brother Ling is fine, it's better to treat this bodyguard than girlfriend."

"I haven't seen anyone who can let you take it with you every day."

"It won't be anything..." The man raised his eyebrows and said ambiguously, "Then it doesn't matter."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people beside him laughed.

"Fuck, tell me a horror story."

"Is Mr. Ling the steel straight man okay?"

"They say you are a straight man." Xiao Xu turned her head and whispered openly in Ling Yi's ear, emphasizing the word "straight man".

Ling Yi's face darkened, and he squeezed out a few words: "Are you stupid? Just stood there and let him touch it."

"Before I realized it, you pulled him away." Xiao Xu said.

Ling Yi sneered: "What kind of bodyguard are you reacting to, don't everyone stab me in the stomach—"

He suddenly remembered what happened in the underground parking lot before, and swallowed the sarcasm in his mouth for a moment.

"Mr. Ling, can you be gentle with your boyfriend?" Xiao Xu didn't notice that he stopped abruptly, and said, "It's easy for you to lose me like this."

"What are you whispering, let us listen too." Zhang Ershao said.

Xiao Xu put her arm on Ling Yi's shoulder and leaned lazily on him.

Ling Yi's tone was cold: "Who told you that he is just my bodyguard."

Zhang Ershao: "..."

No, what's the matter?

Ok?

They belatedly realized that the second part of Ling Yi's sentence was wrong, Ling Yi had already turned around and left, Xiao Xu waved his hand and said goodbye: "See you later, everyone."

Leave a dazed look on all sides.

The sound of water in the bathroom of the gym can be heard, and the frosted glass can vaguely see the figure, and the foam on the tiles is washed away by the water. Xiao Xu finished the shower first, and waited for Ling Yi at the door, and Ling Yi also came out after a while.

When he passed by Xiao Xu, he remembered something, took two steps back, touched his abdominal muscles through his clothes, pulled the corners of his lips, and said with a fake smile: "The bodyguard is in good shape."

"It's okay, so-so." Xiao Xu wrapped his arms around his wrist and pulled him towards her with all his might, "Mr. Ling, are you jealous?"

"Remember your identity well," Ling Yi said.

This sentence seems to have been coming out of Ling Yi's mouth before, and now it is no exception, Xiao Xu asked: "What identity?"

Ling Yi paused and said, "Boyfriend."

Xiao Xu responded.

Ling Yi: "..."

Xiao Xu kissed him, "Does this count as exercising my rights?"

When they went out from the inside, Ling Yi's lips were red, and the breath of fried hair was appeased.

Ling Yi is not completely jealous, but just doesn't like Xiao Xu's close contact with others, and his dislike is clearly expressed, and he won't hide it. Xiao Xu likes this straightforwardness.

The circle of the rich second generation is not big, and basically a little thing can spread. Before Song Shizhi pursued Ling Yi, the company often sent flowers, and the circle also had the mentality of watching a show, wondering if Ling Yi would agree to him.

There are quite a few wealthy young and old who play with men in the circle. Ling Yi brought Xiao Xu with him before, and some people have heard the rumors, but Ling Yi's words were just "for fun", and he didn't seem to take it seriously.

But now it's different, Ling Yi not only played, but also got people into the company. After such a lot of trouble, the word "play" can't be summed up.

He hadn't spoken positively about his relationship with Xiao Xu before, but everyone in the circle basically knew about the existence of someone like Xiao Xu.

The down-and-out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken, but he didn't expect that Xiao Xu would actually get on such a tall branch as Ling Yi, and Ling Yi's meaningful words in the gym spread instantly.

As night fell, the curtains in the bedroom were closed tightly, and there was a dim light on the bed. Song Shizhi looked at the words on the phone discussed by the people in the group, and squeezed the phone tightly. The walls of the room were covered with photos, and there were two people on them.

A laugh came from the corner of his lips, and he slammed the phone out.

Two days later, it was Ling Yi's old man's birthday party. The day before the birthday party, Xiao Xu received a call.

At night, the apartment was lit, Ling Yi was sitting on the bed in the bedroom, playing a game of dressing up with a tablet, while Xiao Xu was in the living room.

The phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar phone number. After the call was connected, the first sentence of the other party's opening remarks was "Hello, Mr. Xiao", and then he reported his family name as Ling Yi's grandfather's assistant, and asked, "I don't know. Do you have time, Mr. Xiao, come out and chat now."

"Now?"

It's almost eleven o'clock now, and the elderly's work and rest are not healthy.

"Yes." The assistant said with certainty.

Xiao Xu agreed, and the other party gave him an address, which was a coffee shop downstairs in this apartment. Obviously, the other party was also very clear about the fact that he and Ling Yi lived together.

He opened the bedroom door, stood at the door and looked at Ling Yi who was on the bed, and said, "I'll go out for a while."

"Where are you going?" Ling Yi was glued to the tablet without raising his eyes.

"Go downstairs to buy something, the cover is almost gone." Xiao Xu said.

Ling Yi ordered something wrong, and the one on the screen was wearing an ugly yellow dress.

"...you go," he said.

The coffee shop downstairs was still open, but there was no one there. Xiao Xu pushed open the door and saw the person he was looking for at a glance. An old man with an extraordinary bearing was sitting at the table.

"Chairman Ling." Xiao Xu walked across to him.

"Sit down." The old man looked very coercive, but his tone was very kind when he spoke. He looked Xiao Xu up and down, and said something that Xiao Xu didn't expect.

"Young man, very good."

Xiao Xu's expected threat to break up did not appear.

"I heard that you are dating my grandson Ling Yi."

Xiao Xu had a decent smile on her face, respected the old man, and frankly admitted: "Yes."

Ling Lao looked at the young man in front of him.

Dare to fall in love with Ling Yi, it is really courageous, Ling Yi was brought up by himself, he knows Ling Yi's rebellious temperament.A long time ago, Ling Lao had already investigated Xiao Xu to the bottom, but the feeling of personal contact is still different from reading the information.

The waiter brought the coffee up, said "please take it slowly" in a soft voice, and went down with the tray.

"Why?" The old man asked curiously.

Xiao Xu smiled and said as a matter of course: "When young people fall in love, don't they get together when they see each other right?"

"Ling Yi has a bad personality."

"Have it?"

"When he was young, he played with other children, and someone broke his toy car. He beat them in the mud and went home crying to find his mother. He has a strong personality since he was a child."

Xiao Xu said: "It's not easy to be bullied, that's good."

The old man also mentioned several shortcomings of Ling Yi, focusing on his bad temper. Xiao Xu didn't mind about it and liked it very much.

"I didn't come here for money before." The old man said, "What about you?"

"Me?" Xiao Xu paused for two seconds, thought of something, and chuckled, "For people."

At first it was for money, now it is for people.

Whether he likes it or not, Xiao Xu doesn't have such a deep feeling about it. He will find some of Ling Yi's petty temper and reactions very interesting. As for the bad temper that the old man said, it is not bad temper. .

The liking has been integrated into daily life, and the other party's petty temper has become pleasing to the eye.

But Xiao Xu didn't know, or didn't think deeply about it, Ling Yi liked him because others could feel his liking, that's why he fell in love with him so easily.

……

Xiao Xu was carrying a bag of things, and was waiting for the elevator in the apartment. The elevator came down from more than ten floors, and when it reached the first floor, it opened with a "ding" sound. Ling Yi in the elevator was wearing home clothes, with an impatient expression on his face and messy hair , and just confronted Xiao Xu face to face.

——He has been down for too long, so long that it doesn't seem like buying a condom, but using a condom.

"Why did you get down?" Xiao Xu walked into the elevator.

Ling Yi folded his hands on his chest, half closed his eyes, yawned and said, "I thought you were lost."

"Take me home." Xiao Xu said.

Ling Yi raised his eyebrows at him arrogantly and provocatively: "No way."

"Okay." Xiao Xu rubbed his hair, "Ling Yi."

Ling Yi: "Why?"

Xiao Xu laughed again and said, "It's nothing."

Ling Yi: "...do you know that your behavior is easy to be beaten."

Xiao Xu had a surprised expression on his face: "Really?"

Ling Yi: "..."

Xiao Xu: "Why don't you... beat him up lightly?"

Ling Yi unconsciously remembered that night, the smell in the air, the tie soaked in tears and sweat, the man whispering in his ear, and his crying response...

Ling Yi's face was numb.

Seven o'clock the next night.

"I'll go with you, are you sure?" Xiao Xu sat by the bed, with a folded suit in hand.

Ling Yi's short hair was brushed back, exposing his forehead, his aggressiveness and wildness were more prominent, his face was sharp and angular, the corners of his eyes were raised, and his light-colored pupils were clear and sharp.

"Are you afraid?"

Ling Yi has grown up and knows how to use aggressive methods.

Xiao Xu nodded: "I'm afraid, what if your grandfather doesn't agree with us being together?"

"Who said I took you to meet my grandfather." Ling Yi snorted softly, "Just treat it as an ordinary banquet, and I've already prepared the birthday gift."

He urged Xiao Xu to change his clothes.

When going out, Xiao Xu took Ling Yi's arm, Ling Yi turned around, Xiao Xu raised his hand to straighten his tie, seeing the contrast between his impatient face and obedient head up is really cute, lowering his head on his lips pecked on.

"Let's go."

Ling Yi pursed his lips.

How annoying, why is Xiao Xu so clingy.

"Your tie is crooked." Ling Yi said.

Xiao Xu lowered her head, Ling Yi stretched out her hand and pulled it, this time it was really crooked.

He supported Ling Yi's waist, and was pushed against the wall by him, and was forced to kiss several times. He put his hand on the back of Ling Yi's neck, slender neck, and he could wrap most of the skin with his palms.

Every time Ling Yi kissed, he was fierce, and in the end he couldn't recover from Xiao Xu's kiss, and followed him in a daze.

Ling Yi like this is so deceiving.

In the end, it was a call from the driver that interrupted their chatting at the door.

The birthday banquet was held in the villa, and it was very grand. The trees in the garden outside were lit up with lights, and a huge cake was placed in the middle. Even though the old man of the Ling family had begun to abdicate, his prestige in the industry was very important.

Xiao Xu and Ling Yi arrived at the scene, Ling Yi went to give the birthday gift, and temporarily separated from him. He knew half of the people here, and Zhang Ershao and his gang of rich second generations even came over to say hello to him. Pry something out of his mouth.

They made a wrong calculation, Xiao Xu looked harmless, but was actually scheming.

On the other end, the old man of the Ling family hadn't come out yet, drinking tea leisurely in the study, writing with a brush, a picture of "Shoubi Nanshan" in chic and elegant handwriting.

"Come on, come and have a look." He beckoned.

Ling Yi walked over, "Grandpa."

"The kid who followed you didn't come?" Elder Ling glanced behind him.

When Ling Yi heard what he said, he knew that he almost knew it. His grandfather's eyeliner was everywhere, and people planted flowers in the yard and watered them, so he knew everything outside clearly.

"Two days ago your father wanted to bring his child back." Ling Lao said.

Ling Yi frowned.

Ling Lao patted Ling Yi on the shoulder: "Don't let grandpa down."

Ling Yi's hand that was hanging down his hand suddenly clenched: "Grandpa..."

When those words fell into his ears, it was almost like asking him to break up with Xiao Xu. He didn't want to make him unhappy on his grandpa's birthday.

"I'm an old man, your father can't handle things, the company is in your hands, you have to manage it well." Ling Lao said again, "That child is still reliable."

Ling Yi's eyes trembled, he raised his eyelids, and let go of his clenched hands.

At the beginning of the birthday banquet, Mr. Ling only appeared, and Ling Yi was still beside him. After the birthday banquet started, many people around Mr. Ling went up, and Ling Yi also got busy. While talking with others, there were many people around him. A figure, he turned his head to look over, Xiao Xu stood beside him with a drink, and smiled at him.

Xiao Xu was dressed in a black suit, low-key and dignified, with a smile on his handsome face and affection in his eyes. He naturally stood beside him and joined his conversation.

The middle-aged man was followed by a young woman in a light blue halter neck dress, and introduced him.

It was his daughter, and his intentions were obvious.

In the circle, many people's marriages are mixed with interests. This kind of behavior is not uncommon. Men and women of marriageable age are about the same, but Ling Yi is arrogant and refuses such things.

"How about we go and talk?" the woman said.

Ling Yi glanced at Xiao Xu.

Xiao Xu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "President Ling, I have something to tell you."

Ling Yi tilted his head: "Is it very important?"

"Important, very important." Xiao Xu emphasized.

Ling Yi raised his glass and said "Sorry" to the woman, then followed Xiao Xu away.

The two went to a quieter place and found a place to sit down.

"Tell me, what's important." Ling Yi said.

Xiao Xu: "The important thing is...do you smell anything?"

"What flavor?"

"Sour."

Ling Yi: "..."

Xiao Xu said: "President Ling, when will you give me a serious identity?"

Ling Yi's ears were a little hot. He raised his hand and pinched his ears. The phone in his pocket vibrated twice. He seemed to see a savior. He took it out and took a look. His face changed slightly in the next second.

[The banquet is over, let's meet up. 】

The sender was a string of unfamiliar numbers, and two photos were sent below. In the photos, he and Xiao Xu went in and out together. It looked ordinary, but very intimate.

In the photo, the two are talking face to face, very close to each other.

[If you don’t want me to send these photos to Xiao Xu’s mother, let’s meet up]

[Mom just had an operation recently. 】

"What's wrong?" Xiao Xu leaned over.

The breath change on Ling Yi's body was very subtle, but he was still aware of it.

Ling Yi turned off the screen, "It's about the company."

"Really?" Xiao Xu didn't quite believe it.

Ling Yi: "Don't believe me?"

Xiao Xu laughed, and said he believed it, but he didn't quite believe it in his heart.

Just now, Ling Yi's expression and actions were inadvertently avoiding him.

Did something happen?

Not quite like his grandpa's business.Ling Yi shouldn't avoid him about the company's affairs.

what is it then?

Xiao Xu was not lacking in patience when thinking about Ling Yi.

At this birthday banquet, Elder Ling showed great importance to Ling Yi, and also explained that he intends to entrust the company to him. Some time ago, there were rumors that the Ling family would recognize the illegitimate son, but now this development is intriguing.

When the banquet was about to end, Xiao Xu saw Ling Yi heading towards the gate, and he followed without a trace.

The night was dark, the villa was bustling and bustling, and the outside was relatively deserted. Ling Yi didn't go to the parking place, but walked forward for a certain distance, turned a few corners, and reached a dead corner.

Xiao Xu stopped not far away and waited. Not long after, a car drove out of it.

Xiao Xu held the mobile phone in his hand, and the light from the screen illuminated his face. He looked up and saw a familiar side face in the driver's seat of the car——Song Shizhi.

This inevitably made Xiao Xu think of the worst scenario - the kidnapping plot in the second half of the original text.

With a low curse, he quickly ran back, found Ling Yi's car, asked the driver to get out of the car, and drove after him.

Ling Yi lowered his head and sent a message to Xiao Xu, asking him to go back first, then looked up at Song Shizhi in the driver's seat: "What exactly do you want?"

Song Shizhi said softly: "Don't worry, you will know."

His state was a bit strange, Ling Yi frowned: "Stop."

Song Shizhi: "What's wrong?"

"I changed my mind."

"Are you scared?" Song Shizhi said, "Don't be afraid of me, I like you, I won't do anything to you, I just want to talk to you, why...you always ignore me."

He breathed a long sigh of relief and murmured to himself: "I really like you, Ling Yi, I've liked you for so long, but you refused to listen to me even a word, don't you think it's too unfeeling?"

Ling Yi: "I told you, I'm not interested in you."

"Where's Xiao Xu? He's obviously behind me, why, why!" Song Shizhi patted the steering wheel, and the car shook.

Ling Yi grabbed the armrest inside the car and dropped the phone.

Something was wrong with Song Shizhi.

"Stop the car!"

"You can't park here, you will be fined." He was normal sometimes, and sometimes abnormal, "I can't take it anymore, Ling Yi, you drove me crazy...Huh? Has anyone followed?"

He glanced in the rearview mirror and murmured softly.

Ling Yi glanced in the rearview mirror.

It's his car!

At this time, for no reason, his first reaction was that the person in the car was Xiao Xu, and he was so sure for some reason.

There are few vehicles on the asphalt road at night, the shadows of the trees on both sides, the moonlight casts shadows, and the evening wind blows. This is an ordinary night, but it is also unusual.

Xiao Xu watched the car in front of him getting faster and faster, he knew that the other party had spotted him.

Two cars drove past one after the other.

"Song Shizhi!" Ling Yi lowered his voice, but his concern was chaotic. He had countless ways to shut up Song Shizhi, but that slight possibility made him agree to go to another place to talk with Song Shizhi. After the car, Song Shizhi revealed his true face.

Song Shizhi laughed twice: "It's so strange that you will also be threatened by me."

"You stop first." Ling Yi said, at this time he naturally wouldn't rush to grab the steering wheel, both of them have to die, he can't die, he gave Xiao Xu a lot of money two days ago, and he hasn't had enough sleep yet.

Song Shizhi refused simply: "No."

Seeing Xiao Xu's car getting closer, his expression twisted, and he stepped on the accelerator.

Song Shizhi's drag racing skills are not very good, it's completely his emotions that control his body.

There was a harsh brake sound, and there was a loud bang. The car lost control and hit a street lamp and a tree, and the front of the car flattened.

When Xiao Xu watched the car in front of him suddenly turn the steering wheel and drift to one side out of control, his heart tightened and he stepped on the brakes. He got out of the car, staggering a little.

It's ridiculous to say that Xiao Xu has lived for so many years, but he has never felt weak legs a few times. He supported the car, took a breath, and strode towards the smoking car.

He opened the rear door and called [-].

The waiting time was extremely long, Ling Yi fainted, Song Shizhi looked more serious in front, Xiao Xu's memory of waiting was blank when recalled later.

-

"He's fine, just a slight concussion and trauma. The other gentleman's leg is a little serious. He is undergoing rescue and needs the signature of the patient's family. Do you know him?" the nurse asked the man beside the hospital bed.

"I've only met a few times, so I'm not familiar with it." Xiao Xu said.

Xiao Xu's face was a little pale, and he couldn't hear clearly. The nurse asked him a few more questions, and he answered them. Seeing that his expression was not right, the other party asked, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Xu shook his head.

After the nurse left, he went to the bathroom to wash his face, and the sound in his ear was better.

He returned to the ward. There were several beds in the ward, and the curtains were drawn between each other. Xiao Xu walked to the bed, pulled the stool and sat down, staring at Ling Yi's face fascinated.

After a long time, maybe not too long, Xiao Xu lost the concept of time.

"What are you doing with the look of mourning for me?" The weak voice pulled him back from his daze.

He blinked, his eyes became focused, and looked at Ling Yi on the bed. Ling Yi didn't know whether it was a guilty conscience or what, he raised his hand and tentatively grabbed his finger, and then pressed it up to his palm.

"Wake up." Xiao Xu said, "I haven't called your grandpa yet."

"Stop hitting me, I'm fine," he said.

Xiao Xu's face without a smile appeared a little too calm, "Is there any discomfort?"

Ling Yi was not used to this kind of him, so he resisted the feeling of vomiting and said, "No."

Xiao Xu took his hand out of his hand and leaned over to help him up: "Drink some water."

Ling Yi grabbed his arm: "Are you... angry?"

He twitched the corner of his lips lightly, and said in a deadpan tone, "How dare I, Boss Ling didn't take me at ease, so I have no right to be angry."

Ling Yi pursed his lips, and it was the first time he realized that Xiao Xu would be stinging with duplicity, he stared at him intently, was supported by him to sit up, took the water glass and put it to his mouth to drink.

"I didn't worry about you."

It's just too reassuring.

"Do you know what he wants to do tonight?"

Ling Yi was wronged and dared not speak, and the man who was fearless admitted his counsel.

He stretched out his hand, held Xiao Xu's finger, and shook it: "Don't be angry, okay?"

"Xiao Xu." Ling Yi held the cup, probably just woke up, his heart turned into a glass heart, and some were hurt by his backing away.

"I'll go out for a while." Xiao Xu returned his mobile phone to him, "Call me if you need anything."
