I became a substitute for my brother

When Tao Heng woke up, he was so weak that he had no strength left.

Hunger, cold, and pain, he couldn't help moaning.

He turned over and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

—one of his feet was chained to the end of the bed.

Tao Heng suddenly opened his eyes wide.

It was already dark outside, and only one wall lamp was turned on in the bedroom. Tao Heng looked around and found that Qin Wenyuan had long since disappeared.

Tao Heng tried to sit up with his arms propped up, but the iron chain made heavy metal clashes, and there was a knock on the door and a servant's voice outside: "Sir, are you awake?"

Tao Heng looked at the black, cold, finger-thick iron chain on his white ankle, smiled miserably, closed his eyes, and let out a "hmm".

The door was pushed open, and the servant stood at the door with his head down, not daring to look at him, "Are you hungry, sir? What do you want to eat?"

Tao Heng shook his head, and said weakly: "I have a fever, please bring me some antipyretic medicine."

The servant couldn't help but looked up at him, and found that he was really uncomfortable, so he hurriedly said, "I'll call Dr. Chen."

Tao Heng didn't care, he turned his eyes away and followed her.

Even though Tao Heng was trapped on the bed and couldn't even get out of the bed, the servant still locked the door when he left. Tao Heng leaned on the bed and looked at the dark scene outside the window without any disturbance in his heart.

Doctor Chen came soon. When he saw the chain on Tao Heng's ankle, he was startled, and quickly looked away to check Tao Heng's body.

Tao Heng has a fever and has some stomach problems. Dr. Chen hoped that he could go to the hospital for an examination, but he knew that with Tao Heng's current condition, it was impossible unless Master Qin spoke.

"I'll put you on a drip first, and I'll suggest Master Qin to take you to the hospital when he comes back."

Doctor Chen pushed the needle into the back of Tao Heng's hand, then straightened up and adjusted the drip rate before going out. Tao Heng heard him order the servant to bring some light food at the door, the door was locked again, and the room fell silent.

Qin Wenyuan came back in the middle of the night. When the room was pushed away, Tao Heng was sitting on the bed in a daze.

Qin Wenyuan took off his suit and threw it at the foot of the bed. He walked to the bed, knelt on the bed with one leg, leaned over and hugged Tao Heng, held him tightly in his arms, and whispered in his ear, "I miss you very much." .”

The chain made a clanging sound, but Tao Heng didn't respond, as if nothing had happened, he quietly leaned against Qin Wenyuan's arms, his eyes unmoved.

Qin Wenyuan didn't seem to need his answer either. After hugging him for a while, he let go, sat on the edge of the bed, touched his forehead with his hand, and said, "Have you taken your temperature? Are you still burning?"

There was a forehead thermometer next to the bed, and Qin Wenyuan took it to measure it for him. The temperature has dropped a lot from the beginning, and it is the medicine that has worked.

"Fortunately, ask Dr. Chen to come over tomorrow for another drip." Qin Wenyuan said to himself, "By the way, Dr. Chen said that your stomach is not good. We will go to the hospital for an examination in two days."

Tao Heng's expression was calm, without even furrowing his eyebrows. Qin Wenyuan thought he had agreed, and was about to get up and take off his clothes to take a shower when Tao Heng said, "No need."

Qin Wenyuan frowned and looked at him.

Tao Heng said, "Don't bother, I won't go to the hospital."

"Didn't it mean that the stomach always hurts?" Qin Wenyuan didn't understand why, "Why didn't you go to the hospital?"

Tao Heng lowered his head and said nothing.

Under the dim light, the black iron chain made Tao Heng's skin paler. Qin Wenyuan held his slender ankle and rubbed it lightly for a few seconds, then sat back beside him again, and said to him in an almost helpless tone : "Is baby still mad at me?"

Tao Heng didn't answer him. Now he felt that it was a waste of effort to say a word to Qin Wenyuan, so he just pulled up the quilt and lay down, closed his eyes, and showed with practical actions that he had no desire to communicate with him.

For the next 5 minutes, there was no movement in the room. Qin Wenyuan didn't leave, didn't move, and even the sound of his breathing didn't change. He just sat by the bed and looked at Tao Heng quietly. No one knew he was in the room. what to think.

Five minutes later, Qin Wenyuan moved. He reached out and stroked Tao Heng's pale cheeks, from his forehead to the end of his eyes, to his cheekbones, nose, lips, and chin, and then suddenly strangled his neck.

Tao Heng was shocked, opened his eyes suddenly, subconsciously grabbed Qin Wenyuan's arm and tried to push him away, but he couldn't push him away.

Simply Qin Wenyuan didn't use any force, he just clasped Tao Heng's neck and chin with his hands, holding his lifeline in his hands, instead of trying to kill him.

But at the moment Qin Wenyuan held his neck, Tao Heng really thought that Qin Wenyuan would kill him.At that moment, he felt real fear.

Qin Wenyuan quickly let go, stroked his face again, and said softly: "You must be obedient, and don't make me sad."

After speaking, Qin Wenyuan turned and went to the locker room.

Tao Heng's heart beat faster than ever that night.

The next day Qin Wenyuan got up and went to the company. The servant brought in breakfast. Tao Heng said, "I want to eat steak at noon today."

The servant said: "You are still sick, you can't eat something that you can't digest."

Tao Heng lost his temper for the first time: "Why, I was locked up by your Master Qin, and I don't even have the right to eat anything?"

After he finished speaking, he dropped a bowl, and the servant immediately apologized: "I didn't mean that, but Master Qin said that he would let you eat light food, and you can only eat meat when you recover from illness."

Tao Heng said impatiently: "Call Qin Wenyuan and ask him if I can have steak. If he says no, I won't eat it."

The servant had no choice but to call Qin Wenyuan, but Qin Wenyuan told Tao Heng to eat whatever he wanted, but told them to pay attention to Tao Heng's physical condition.

With Qin Wenyuan's consent, the kitchen cooked a good steak for Tao Heng at noon, and served it with several side dishes.When the steak came in, Tao Heng was sitting on the bed reading a book. The book was placed by the bed, and he had read it several times. Use it to pass the time.

Seeing that he was in good spirits, the servant said while setting meals for him: "After lunch, Dr. Chen will come to give you a drip."

"Yeah." Tao Heng closed the book, looked at the meals on the table, and said suddenly, "I want to drink orange juice, go and bring me a cup."

The servant replied: "Okay."

After the servant left, Tao Heng held the steak knife and the fork in his hands respectively, and finally chose the fork.He leaned over and threw the fork under the bed, sliced ​​the steak with the spoon and knife, and put it into his mouth at a leisurely pace.

After the servant came in with orange juice, Tao Heng pretended to be casual and said, "I accidentally dropped the fork under the bed."

The servant squatted down immediately, "I'll pick it up."

Tao Heng clicked his tongue, "I'm eating here, but what do you want me to eat with your butt up there?"

The servant picked it up in embarrassment, and it didn't matter if he didn't pick it up. He didn't know what to do, Tao Heng said impatiently: "Don't bother, the kitchen is not short of this fork."

He said so, so the servant didn't take it seriously.

After eating, the servant took away the dishes and locked the door. Tao Heng waited for a while and saw that no one came in, got out of bed and lay down on the ground, picked up the fork from the bottom of the bed, and hid it under the pillow.
