Deer in the forest

Lin Shen had a very long dream.

In the dream, when he was still a child, he lived with his grandparents in a beautiful border town. His father and sisters sometimes came to visit him, but his father rarely came. play for a while.

He was very naughty when he was a child, and he often broke the third sister's hairpin, and then pulled her braids into a mess.At this time, the third sister would cry and complain to her grandparents.But this time in the dream, the third sister didn't cry, she took the initiative to hand the hairpin to her younger brother, smiling softly and dotingly: "You, you must live a good life in the future, don't be self-willed anymore."

My sister came to pinch his face again, it was a little painful and itchy, and then she smiled and left.

"Third Sister—" he shouted and chased after him. It was an adult voice. He looked down at himself. He had an adult body and could run fast.He was overjoyed and ran after the third sister, but he couldn't catch up anyway.A bus drove up in the distance, and there were many people. He watched the third sister get on the bus and sat on a seat by the window.

He was in a hurry, and ran over in two steps in three steps, and even squeezed into the car.He called Third Sister, trying to squeeze into the seat next to her and sit down.Someone shouted in the car, it's time to drive!The third sister stood up suddenly and yelled "wait a minute" to the driver.

The third sister stood three steps away from him and said, "I'm leaving, get out of the car."

He couldn't squeeze through no matter what, and anxiously called Third Sister, "I won't get out of the car, I want to go with you."

"Hey, you listen to the third sister the most, and I won't take you away this time." After the third sister finished speaking, she told the driver to drive.

At some point, he was squeezed off the bus again, watching the car carrying the third sister go further and further away. "Sister..." He cried and squatted on the side of the road, his heart throbbing, his sister left, and this time left him alone.After crying for a while, he stood up and made a decision in his heart, I'm going to find her.

He walked along the road in front of his house. It was a long road leading to a distant mountain. Daisy bloomed on the side of the road, and the air was full of sweet fragrance.He was happy again, and wanted to run away, but he couldn't run anymore, and someone behind him seemed to be calling his name: "Ah Shen..."

Who is Ah Shen? Is it me?

He turned his head, and there was a long river behind him, and someone on the opposite side was calling him, calling his name.

But my name is not Ah Shen, and the person you are looking for is not me.He thought to himself, looking at the man's distraught figure, he felt inexplicably pitiful.He wanted to turn around and leave, but the man kept yelling at him until his heart broke.

He had to stop again.He felt pain in his heart, and looked down at the bright red liquid gushing out of his body, dyeing the daisies on the side of the road red.The man on the other side of the river suddenly ran over and hugged him tightly: "I know you are hurting, can you bear it any longer and come back with me, okay?" All wet and sticky.

Seeing that person's face and red eyes from crying, he was very sad, temporarily forgot about his sister, and held the other's hand in a strange way.The man's lips came over and pressed against his neck. His lips were warm, and his breath was hot. Then he wrapped his hands around him, wrapping him in his body, which was unbelievably warm.

He gradually sank into this warm embrace and kept sinking into complete darkness.

After falling into critical condition twice, after four hours of rescue, Lin Shen was finally out of danger.Three days later, I was transferred from the ICU to the general ward, and gradually woke up on the fourth day.

He opened his eyes, and saw the haggard Li Jibai for the first time. He was at a loss for a moment, and called out in a daze, "Sister..."

Li Jibai was taken aback for a moment, but then immersed in the ecstasy of waking up, doctors and nurses rushed in, busy checking.Lin Shen only felt dizzy, his ears were buzzing, and his eyes were full of colors. He heard someone ask "how is it?" in a daze, and it seemed that someone answered "it means you're stable when you wake up", and then a series of "it's best to use it." medicine", "thank you", "take a good rest" and the like.

By the time he fully woke up and had his own consciousness, more than ten days had passed.

He has already returned to his bedroom in Xianyue Villa. The layout inside has been readjusted. A full set of medical equipment is placed in a spacious room, and professional doctors and nurses are ready to check him up.Li Chu stayed with him most of the time, and Li Jibai tried his best to handle his work at home, and only went to the company to see him if he couldn't do it.

He only knew from Li Zhu's mouth that his situation was very dangerous this time. The bullet was only two centimeters away from his heart. In addition to the previous major and minor injuries, his physical condition was not as good as before, so his heart stopped beating twice during the rescue process, and he almost There is really no way to save him.

Li Jibai would come over to accompany him after he was busy in the study, he didn't talk much, just looked at him.

Lin Shen recalled the dream he had before falling asleep. In the dream, he didn't know who the person who left him was, but he would know when he woke up.It turned out that subconsciously he was still reluctant to part with Li Jibai?Desperately preventing him from leaving, so painful and sad, so fragile and lonely, how could that person be Li Jibai?If he really died, maybe Li Jibai would be sad for a while, but it wouldn't affect his future life, why did the person in the dream look like he couldn't live without him?

"What's the matter?" Li Jibai looked at Lin Shen staring at him with a puzzled face. Since he woke up, he often looked at himself with this look, as if he had countless questions in his heart, and seemed to be at a loss. "What are you thinking? Can you tell me?" His tone was very light, as if he was afraid of scaring people.

"...I had a dream." Lin Shen said hesitantly, "I want to leave, but you stop me, you are crying, very sad."

"So, I'm coming back with you."

"That's not a dream." Li Jibai gently held Lin Shen's finger, his eyes focused and affectionate, "I'm really sad, I'm so sad that I'm dying."

"It was because of me that you were hurt in country M. Later, I swore that I would never let you get hurt again. But as time passed, I gradually forgot my vow. Every time you get hurt after that, it is because I."

"I regret it...I doubted you, treated you slowly, and couldn't see your heart clearly, and I couldn't see mine clearly. I'm sorry, Ah Shen, and I will never do it again."

Li Jibai apologized very solemnly, as if facing his own precious and precious treasure: "So, I want to thank you for being willing to come back with me."

"Also, I also want to thank you for saving me." Li Jibai's eyes were reddened, he is not good at expressing emotions, and to be able to finish these words in front of Lin Shen has already turned his internal organs inside out I have said it again, and now it is even more difficult to say the grace of saving my life.

"I treat you so badly, but you want to save me." Li Jibai laughed at himself, "I don't know what's going on in your mind."

What are you thinking?Lin Shen didn't think about anything.

At the moment when the danger came, his only thought was to protect the people around him, to protect the person he loved for 7 years, to protect the person who brought that ray of sunshine into his dark life.

To love him is instinct, to save him is instinct.

It has nothing to do with what Li Jibai has done, and it has nothing to do with whether Li Jibai treats him well or badly.

"I can't resist my instinct." Lin Shen said lightly, as if talking about today's weather, naturally and frankly.

Li Jibai was shocked on the spot.

Huge waves surged in his eyes, and the emotions in his heart suddenly soared, covering the sky and the fields, covering his whole body densely.

He stared at Lin Shen's pale face, unable to say a word.Suddenly, a sentence popped up in his mind at an inappropriate time, it turned out that he was a fool.

The giant dragon guards the treasures of the entire cave, but still goes around hunting around unsatisfied. He always thinks that the treasures outside are more magnificent and rare, and he only finds out when he grabs them. Not worth mentioning.

So, what has he been up to all these years?

Li Jibai rarely lost his composure, Lin Shen looked at him with soreness in his heart.The frequency of two people is different, even if they understand each other's mind, some things happen as they happen, and they can't get over it, and they can't forget it.

The damage has been done and will continue in the future.It's not that you love me and I love you can solve all the contradictions.

Love has never been a necessity for Li Jibai. If I have to use a metaphor, Li Jibai may be Lin Shen's only food, and Lin Shen is just Li Jibai's condiment.

Two people with different views on love are doomed not to go on.

Lin Shen put away his messy thoughts, regretting what he blurted out just now, he calmly changed the subject: "Did someone catch it?"

Speaking of this, Li Jibai's face became gloomy, he nodded, and there was a trace of sternness between his brows, but he became normal again in a blink of an eye, and said briefly, leaving the matter to Lao Ding and the others to deal with.

In the past few years, Hongbai has been doing business, but there are only so many profit cakes, and there are still many people who have feuded with the Li family.But there are not many people who want Li Jibai's life with such straight eyebrows, and the context will be clear after a search.

Li Jibai didn't mind killing such enemies all at once.He has never struck so hard before, leaving no room for it.Lin Shen knew his method, so he didn't ask any more questions now.But what he didn't know was that Lin Shen was injured because Li Jibai had to kill him this time.

During this period of time, after Li Jibai made his mind clear, he didn't settle down. Instead, there was a bomb hanging in his heart all the time, feeling that it would explode at any moment.He couldn't explain why, but sometimes he looked at Lin Shen, who was clearly within reach, but this man seemed like a flower in a mirror, unable to reach his arms, and unable to smile.

Fortunately, he thought, there was still time to make amends.

"By the way, when you just woke up, who was your sister?" Li Jibai asked suddenly.

Lin Shen was startled, without changing his face: "Is there?"

"Yes. Do you have any other relatives?" Li Jibai asked.Before being selected by the Li family, Lin Shen's identity and background had been investigated clearly, and there was absolutely no secret at all. He was an orphan, his parents died, and he was wandering on the border alone. .

Li Jibai was not suspicious when he asked this question, he had never thought of exploring Lin Shen's past before, this was not his job.But now, he wants to know everything about this person.

Lin Shen pondered for a while, as if he was thinking: "I can't remember what happened when I was a child, but I did dream of a little girl when I was in a coma. She must be a few years older than me. It feels very kind. In the dream, I remember my Call her sister."

What he said was half true and half false, Li Jibai did not suspect it.He held Lin Shen's hand, with a sincere and gentle tone: "When you are well, if you want to find other relatives, I will help you."

Lin Shen lowered his head and looked at the hand that was holding him. The palm was wide and dry, the knuckles of the fingers were well defined, and it carried a soothing heat that made people reluctant to move it away.He curled his fingers slightly, and with a little effort, slowly pulled them out, rubbing his knees without any trace: "No, I don't want to look for it. Even if I find someone, it's not a close relative, so it's not interesting."

Li Jibai nodded, didn't dwell on this issue, and quickly changed the subject: "Then wait for you to recover, let's go for a walk. Is there any place you want to go?"

Lin Shen thought about it, and finally said forget it, and didn't want to go anywhere. "I'm almost too idle to grow hair. I'll go to work immediately when I'm done."

"Or—" He paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Let's go to Finland and eat strawberry pie and blueberry pie." Li Jibai likes strawberry pie, but Lin Shen actually likes blueberry pie even more.

Since the incident at the reception, Lin Shen hadn't smiled very much, and it was rare for him to show a relaxed and happy smile at this moment, and Li Jibai suddenly felt a kind of care and surprise that was lost and found again.

Why didn't I realize that this person had such a good-looking smile before?It turns out that if you love someone, you want him to smile forever.
