I became a substitute for my brother

The door was not as unbreakable as imagined, but it was already shaken when Tao Heng kicked it for the first time.

Tao Heng noticed the abnormality, stepped forward to hold the doorknob and turned it, the door opened, and he was about to push the door in, at this moment, Qin Wenyuan strode over, grabbed his wrist, and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing? "

Tao Heng turned his head and stared at him with cold eyes, "I want to go in."

"Tao Heng," Qin Wenyuan called his name, "you passed."

"Let's pass it then," Tao Heng's voice was equally cold, "I must go in today."

As he spoke, he waved Qin Wenyuan's hand away, and pushed open the door containing Qin Wenyuan's secret. Qin Wenyuan held his wrist again, and pulled him back a step, "Do you know the consequences of what you did?"

as a result of?

Tao Heng smiled mockingly, "I'm not afraid, are you afraid?"

He grabbed Qin Wenyuan's wrist with his other hand, removed him from his arm, and walked into the door.

It's a gloomy, scary room.

The heavy double-layered curtains cut off the sunlight outside, and the whole room was shrouded in darkness, heavy and oppressive.Tao Heng walked in, his eyes adjusted for a while, and finally he saw the furnishings in the room clearly.

Double bed, sofa, desk, and a whole wall of bookshelves, half of which are filled with books, and half of which are hollowed out like exhibition shelves for photos and handicrafts.

Those photos are undoubtedly Tao Zhuo and Qin Wenyuan's. From childhood to adulthood, from infancy to youth, from student to society, every bit of the two of them together are fully displayed in front of Tao Heng.

The line of sight moves slowly along the track of time, and finally freezes somewhere in the middle of the bookshelf.

It was a glass bottle filled with a transparent liquid, which seemed to be soaked in something. At that moment, Tao Heng was almost terrified. He couldn't believe what he saw, so he bit the tip of his tongue fiercely. The sharp stabbing pain made him understand that what was in front of him was not a dream. He raised his foot and took a step forward, wanting to see if he might have misread it. Suddenly his eyes went dark, and it was Qin Wenyuan who covered his eyes.

"Don't look." Qin Wenyuan said in his ear.

Tao Heng grabbed his hand and struggled, "Let me go!"

Qin Wenyuan grabbed his waist and dragged him out, coaxing him, "Be good, don't look, let's go back to the room."

"Qin Wenyuan, let me go!"

At this moment, Tao Heng got some strength from where, he elbowed Qin Wenyuan's abdomen, broke himself out of his arms, rushed to the bookshelf and stretched out his hand to the glass bottle.

"do not move--"

Qin Wenyuan was almost roaring.

Tao Heng turned a deaf ear, he put his hand on the glass bottle, his eyes fixed on the contents inside.

It was a severed finger with foamy hair, slowly floating in the slightly yellowish liquid. He didn't recognize the severed finger, but he didn't have any doubts about its owner's identity.

——This is Tao Zhuo’s.

At this moment, Tao Heng suddenly felt extremely ridiculous, so he laughed.

He held his stomach in his hands, and laughed contortedly and wildly, tears streaming down his face.

He turned around and pointed at Qin Wenyuan, and said in a sharp tone he had never seen before: "Qin Wenyuan, you are so pitiful!"

"Why are you so pitiful, Qin Wenyuan!"

"Tao Zhuo is dead, dead! He's been dead for two years! Why are you still refusing to let him go!"

What he wants to say is, why don't you let yourself go?Why don't you let me go?

Tao Heng picked up the bottle of liquid containing the severed finger, lifted it up, and looked at the sunlight coming in from the gap in the curtains. At this moment, he was terrified and crazy. He thought that Qin Wenyuan would hide every time he was drunk. Thinking of Tao Zhuo here, even holding this bottle and thinking of the dead person repeatedly, he felt so sick that he wanted to vomit, but he held back.Holding the bottle, he pointed to the window and said to Qin Wenyuan, "Qin Wenyuan, can I throw it down?"

Qin Wenyuan's face showed obvious anger and distorted pain. He stared fixedly at the bottle in Tao Heng's hand, his white lips trembling uncontrollably, and murmured tremblingly: "Put it down."

Tao Heng didn't like what he wanted. He opened the curtains, and slowly stretched out the window holding the bottle with one hand. At this distance, as long as he let go, the bottle would break into pieces, and the fingers that had lost the embalming fluid would soon be shattered. Rotten and stinking.

Tao Heng raised the corners of his lips viciously, "Qin Wenyuan, are you afraid?"

"No..." Qin Wenyuan staggered to get closer.

"Don't come here!" Tao Heng roared, "If you take one more step forward, I'll let you go now!"

Qin Wenyuan didn't dare to move, but he stretched out his hand, only begging in his eyes.

Tao Heng looked at him, and really felt that he was pitiful, pathetic, and hateful. He took a deep breath and made his own request: "Do you want to keep it? Promise me on one condition."

Qin Wenyuan was already on the verge of collapse, and asked him subconsciously: "What conditions?"

"Sign the divorce agreement and let me go."

Qin Wenyuan paused, and finally shifted his gaze from the bottle to Tao Heng's face, and said after a while, "No."

Tao Heng has heard countless "no" from him, this is the least deterrent one, with a hint of begging, Tao Heng is surprised, surprised why he can still say these two words now, so he Said: "You answer me after you think it over, Qin Wenyuan."

Qin Wenyuan still said the same thing, "No."

He said, "I won't let you go, Tao Heng."

Tao Heng showed a tragic smile, shook the bottle in his hand, and said to Qin Wenyuan: "Whether you keep it or me, you choose."

Qin Wenyuan shook his head, "No..."

"The divorce agreement is in the drawer of your study. I'll give you time. You go get it now. I'll return it to you after you sign it."

Qin Wenyuan's expression was extremely distorted. Tao Heng sniffed and said, "Qin Wenyuan, I don't want to spend time with you all the time. You have loved Tao Zhuo from the beginning to the end. You marry me and treat me well. Just regard me as his substitute, Qin Wenyuan, although I am not as inferior as Tao Zhuo, but I am not so lowly, willing to be someone else's substitute to live in the shadow of others, I used to be unable to see clearly, but now I see clearly , I don't want to be with you!"

Qin Wenyuan's eyes were red, filled with shock and bewilderment, because Tao Heng had never told him this, and when Tao Heng filed for divorce again and again, he thought it was because he slept with someone else, but later he changed, and Tao Heng was still the same. If he wanted to escape, he didn't think about why. He only had one thought, which was to lock Tao Heng by his side. He had already failed once, and he must never fail a second time.

His lips twitched, but no words came out.

Tao Heng's expression was gradually stained with despair, with a look of crying and laughter, "Let me go, Qin Wenyuan, go with your Tao Zhuo. Whether you live together or die together, it has nothing to do with me. I beg you to let me go."

Qin Wenyuan just shook his head subconsciously, "No, no..."

Tao Heng closed his eyes, he was completely desperate, even if he got the chips, he still failed, he couldn't escape, never could escape.

A strong desire for revenge filled his body. He opened his eyes, glanced at the amputated finger in the bottle, and suddenly loosened his fingers, and the bottle fell off and fell from his hand.

"don't want--"

Qin Wenyuan hissed and roared, he rushed over to grab the bottle, but at this moment, Tao Heng suddenly jumped over the window sill, rushed in front of Qin Wenyuan, and jumped off the window sill.
