my boyfriend is a black rose

Flower vine? !

Its color and texture...can't be mistaken.

He put his nose close to the transparent bag, sniffed hard, and then his whole body froze.

"Li Yang, Li Yang?" The person in the back row didn't respond after calling him for a long time, so he patted him on the shoulder.

Li Yang suddenly raised his head to look at that person, his eyes were full of horror.

The man was also surprised: "Li Yang, please fix it, it's my turn."

Seeing that his expression was not quite right, the sampler asked, "Sir, did you find anything?"

Li Yang swallowed hard, and returned the transparent bag to the sampler.

"No, it's nothing, you continue."

On the way back, Li Yang was in a trance.

One tragedy after another described by Jiang Huiran kept appearing in his mind.

Is it really... is that what he thinks?

If it is...

Li Yang couldn't remember how he dragged his tired body back to the door of the hotel room, but he only knew that when he opened the door, he didn't stand firmly at all, and was stuck against the wall like a puddle of soft mud.

Hearing the movement, Hua Ji happily got off the bed and wanted to hug him. "My dear, you are finally back, I can..."

"Do not touch me."

His tone was as cold as a sharp knife.

Hua Ji's hand hovered in the air, and the smile gradually froze on his face.

The way Li Yang looked at him became very scary.

"Honey, what's the matter with you...why is it like this all of a sudden?"

"What's wrong with me...you ask me what's wrong? I want to ask you what's wrong."

Hua Ji was completely frightened by him, closed the door behind his back, followed him into the room, and sat by the bed.

Li Yang stood there, fists clenched. "Let me ask you, what did you do while I was sleeping that night."

Thinking about it now.

That's not an illusion.

It also matches the timeline.

Hua Ji was stunned for a while, and said, "My dear, what are you talking about, when did I go out while you were sleeping? Are you dreaming?"

"You know Ruan Anning, right?" Li Yang took a step closer to him, "Tell me why she died."

Flower Festival stopped talking.

He then emphasized his tone: "Tell me."

"Honey..." Hua Ji slowly looked up at him, "Do you think I killed her?"

"Then tell me why there are your flower vines on the scene!"

The air was instantly quiet.

The two froze for a long time, but no one spoke.

Li Yang wanted to hear his answer, wanted to hear his explanation.

Just need a full explanation.

But Hua Ji kept silent.

Li Yang couldn't bear it any longer, grabbed his collar, "You fucking talk to me..."

Hua Ji did not resist, and met Li Yang's gaze bit by bit.

"You...don't believe that I'm a good demon until now?" He gently held Li Yang's wrist, and his peach eyes were filled with crystal clear tears.

Seeing him like this, Li Yang felt a dull pain in his heart.

But now more than ever he needs reason.

"I just want an explanation. If it's not you, give me an explanation. Why is there your flower vine?"

Hua Ji lowered his head again.

"Is it hard to explain to me?!"

"sorry."

I am sorry.

After waiting for a long time, what I waited for was these three words.

The three words I don't want to hear the most.

"Let me ask you, is it your flower vine that strangled her to death?"

"Yes."

Flower Festival admitted.

He actually admitted it.

On the way back, many hypotheses that Li Yang thought about had all become jokes at this moment.

"Why?" Li Yang clenched his fists even tighter, the broken hair on his forehead almost covered half of his face. "Why kill people?!"

Hua Ji's thin lips trembled slightly, and his voice was weak: "It was my flower vines that strangled her to death, but... if I said that I didn't kill her... would you believe it?"

Li Yang snorted bitterly: "Don't you think your words are contradictory?"

If Huateng doesn't listen to him, who else can he listen to?

Is it interesting to fool him like this?

Just want to explain.

Is it really that difficult to tell him exactly what happened? !

"I'm sorry... I didn't kill the person, but this matter is indeed related to me."

"Are you admitting that you are an accomplice? Tell me clearly..."

"I... I can't say."

"What can't you say?! I'm obviously giving you a chance!"

No matter how much he yelled, Hua Ji never made a sound.

Li Yang couldn't understand.

No matter how many shameless things Hua Ji did before, he can let the past go.

But now that the matter is about human life, it is absolutely impossible for Li Yang to let him change the story.

"You... are you forcing me to give you to Jiang Huiran?"

"Tell me...will you kill me one day?"

"It's not like this!" Hua Ji stood up abruptly, hugged him in his arms, cold tears fell on his skin one by one, "It's not like this...I love you...you believe me, okay? ..."

He also wanted to say and explain.

But he can't tell.

He can't say.

He thought he could hide it, but he didn't expect Li Yang to know about the accident that night so quickly.

After all, paper can't hold the fire.

Li Yang let him hug him, his eyes became sour.

Given the chance, he chooses to admit and not explain.

Perhaps what Jiang Huiran said was right.

Perhaps, I am really too stupid.

Just because of the easy-to-say I love you, it's really stupid to want to give your heart to a monster.

What Jiang Huiran said is right, demons can only confuse people, so as to achieve their goals.

For human beings, the three words that are so precious can be said so easily.

But he just believed it foolishly.

In this way, when he completely let go of his defensive line, he should attack him.

For monsters, killing people is so easy, and humans can't do anything about it.

In the beginning, you should not be soft-hearted again and again.

However, when he fell off the cliff, why did he save him?

Didn't play enough?

"Enough, Flower Festival." Li Yang broke free from his embrace, "Enough. Since you don't explain, then I have nothing to say."

"You... don't trust me anymore?"

Believe?

What to believe.

"You keep such a big thing from me, what about your trust in me?"

Flower Festival did not speak again.

"Let's go." Li Yang almost squeezed out these three words through his teeth.

"What did you say……?"

He can believe that he didn't kill the person, but he admits that Ruan Anning's death was related to him, which Li Yang cannot accept.

"I don't know why you won't say it, but let me tell you, I'm just a weak human like Ruan Anning, and I can't stop you from doing what you want. But if you still have any affection for me, listen, I I want you to return to the world that originally belonged to you."

In the face of the bloody facts, Li Yang could not believe him unconditionally in the end.

The... world that originally belonged to him?

He always believed that the world where Li Yang lived belonged to him.

Now that Li Yang wants to drive him away, where does it belong to him?

What's the point of him being in this world without the guardian's trust?

Hua Ji was silent for a long time, and finally walked towards the door slowly, opened the door, and left behind the last words: "I hope you are well, Li Yang."

The last two words, together with the sound of closing the door, exploded in Li Yang's mind.

Hua Ji called him dear, brother, brother, this was the first time he clearly called his name.

**

Li Yang had a high fever.

Because he didn't have the strength to leave the room at all, he had to entrust Liu Zhiheng to bring him some antipyretic medicine.

Liu Zhiheng came in to take a look, and was startled by Li Yang's pale face.

He put the medicine on the bedside table, and carefully helped him sit up, "Why did you have a fever all of a sudden? Or did you freeze when you went to the beach? You are too scary. I said you won't be retrograde this year, right?" , fainted and sick again."

Li Yang frowned and finished drinking the medicine, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, just a little tired."

"It's better to be fine, let me tell you, don't hold on if you feel uncomfortable, I can't bear it if you pass out again during the recording of the show."

"I'm really fine, Brother Zhiheng." He put the empty medicine bowl aside, "Well, is there any progress in Ruan Anning's case?"

"Not yet. None of the people who went to have their fingerprints checked last time were in agreement. And... Ruan Anning was strangled to death in her own home. The police checked her home, and there was no sign of the lock being picked."

"What if it came in through the window?"

"It's not very likely. She lives on the 19th floor. Only one flower vine was left at the scene."

"What about monitoring?"

"The surveillance cameras in her home and corridor were all destroyed. Now they suspect that an acquaintance of Ruan Anning came to look for her, so they can enter the door logically."

Li Yang became confused again.

What is certain now is that the flower vine belonged to the flower festival.

But...why did he want to kill Ruan Anning?

"Li Yang, do you know that Flower Festival has withdrawn from the program?"

Liu Zhiheng's words brought him back from his thoughts.

Flower Festival withdrew from the variety show.

Li Yang was not surprised.

"Ok, I know."

"Strange, why did you quit the show? I still expected the two of you to win an award or something. What happened? You two are partners, did he tell you?"

"No."

"Ah, no? Don't you have a good relationship? I thought he would tell you..."

Li Yang interrupted: "How can we see that we have a good relationship."

"I went to watch the first two shows, and he seems to be clinging to you all the time."

"..."

"The director is also quite strange, but...you can leave as soon as you leave, don't worry, there will be other artists to take this position."

"Ah."

Li Yang didn't know whether it was right or wrong to drive him away, but he really didn't know how to deal with it.

Feeling that his body has almost recovered, he went to the hall to get some air, and found Jiang Huiran sitting on the long sofa smoking a cigarette.

The eyes of the two men met.

Li Yang was startled, but finally did not choose to hide, but sat down next to him.

"I believe you have read the news, Li Yang." Jiang Huiran's expression was very calm, "Can you cooperate with me now?"

"he's gone."

"……what?"

"Flower sacrifice to him, already gone."

"Gone? Where did you go? Did you let him go?"

"He escaped by himself. I don't know where he went."

Li Yang lied.

Jiang Huiran was surprised, "This..."

"If you want to do something, you can find him yourself, it has nothing to do with me."

Since then, Li Yang has been paying close attention to the progress of Ruan Anning's case, opening Weibo to refresh hot searches from time to time.

After calming down for a few days, he sorted out his mood.

Even if he didn't know why Hua Ji didn't tell him what happened, he still had to figure out what happened by himself.

The recording of "Long Night Star" is progressing as scheduled.

The next stop is called "Xingdong Yixia". Simply put, the artists go to the gymnasium in the city center to complete various game tasks.

Li Yang leaned against the car window and slept all the way.

Because he didn't have the tranquilizing incense that belonged to him, the nightmare began to visit him again at night.

"Brother Li Yang, Brother Li Yang? You've arrived at the gymnasium, shall we get off?"

Bai Shuhan shook him several times before he reacted.

Feeling dizzy, he pinched his brows and said, "I see, I'll get out of the car right away."

It wasn't until he got out of the car that he remembered that he was going to meet his new partner today.

Judging from the criteria for inviting guests on this show, the artist who can replace the Flower Festival should also be someone who can occupy a place in the entertainment circle.

The gymnasium has a lot of space, and there is a swimming pool in the center of the second floor.Li Yang finally meets his new partner.

It was a man who was no less tall than Hua Ji. Although his face was not as delicate as Hua Ji's, he still had a strong exotic air.

Occasionally, when he was browsing Weibo, he would see his program group setting up the venue early, and then handing out task cards to each group of artists.

Photos, so a little impression.

"You are Senior Li Yang, right? I'm Bai Nuo, I've admired your name for a long time, I've admired your name for a long time."

Li Yang looked at the outstretched hand and hesitated for a while.

This hand is also very white, so white that it shines.

But the difference is that he is a standard warm white skin.

Li Yang finally took his hand.

He couldn't help trembling.

The temperature of this hand seems to be higher than that of normal people.

Unlike flower festivals...

Wait a minute, why did you think of him again?
