drowning tide

"Do you think what he said is true?"

Yi Huai propped his chin with one hand, and casually asked the man in the driver's seat.

He Kun concentrated on looking at the road. During this period of time, he frequently traveled to and from this road at three o'clock and one line. He remembered how to get there without looking at the navigation, "That man's extreme fear of drugs is not fake, so The probability of him lying is very low, and it doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what you think."

"If I had to say..."

Yi Huai fell into a long silence before finishing his sentence.

He is Luo Yi's legal heir, when he heard Tang Gaozhuo say this, he instinctively wanted to refute, but there was a voice in his mind saying, that's it, what this person said is true, since he and Luo Yi are The almost absurd content of the will, why does he still live in this world, why has he been forced to learn so many things since he was a teenager, and why does Fei Chuan say that his His life was worth more than he thought... The doubts accumulated in his heart for many years finally had an answer.

This is indeed something that a person like Luo Yi who talks to himself and never asks his opinion can do. If he had a choice, he would rather...

He Kun sent him downstairs to Nie Xicheng's apartment, "I will wait for you here in the morning."

"Excuse me. By the way, have you received the reward from last time?"

He Kun was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was talking about rescuing Wen Zhicheng before, "Got it, but..."

"The extra part will be the deposit this time. Remember to come early tomorrow."

Meeting those worried eyes, He Kun nodded readily, "I see, it's the same time as last time."

"I'm leaving."

After going upstairs, Yi Huai opened the door with the key Nie Xicheng gave him. The living room was completely dark, and there was a faint warm light in the corridor near the bedroom, and the sound of splashing water could be heard.

When he wasn't in the bedroom, he turned his attention to the bathroom, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a blood-stained shirt in a laundry basket on the floor.Not only the shirt, but also the coat and trousers, at most it was not so conspicuous.

In an instant, countless terrifying images came to mind, and he knocked harder on the door, "Nie Xicheng, are you injured?"

The people in the bathroom didn't answer, only the sound of water flowing down.

"Nie Xicheng! Are you inside?"

All kinds of things that happened throughout the day made Yi Huai feel angry. He was too lazy to play games with the people inside, so he went straight to twist the doorknob. Unexpectedly, it was the bathroom. The door was not locked, and the damp water vapor mixed with the aroma of mint bath liquid came oncoming.

"Nie..."

Just as Nie Xicheng turned on the faucet, he came out of the cubicle with a towel on.

"You need the bathroom urgently?"

"Of course not! I..." Yi Huai's eyes turned around Nie Xicheng's chest full of old wounds, and after making sure that there were no new wounds on it, his voice slowly quieted down, "I... I thought you injured."

Nie Xicheng suddenly realized, "That's not my blood, I'm fine, don't worry."

"That's good, I... I'll wait for you outside."

He turned around in a hurry, and was pulled back by a pair of strong arms before he could go out.

"What's wrong?" Nie Xicheng said in a low voice, with his bare chest pressed against his back, and his hot breath pressed against his earlobe, "Why are you so restless? You're not like the usual you?"

"I..." He lowered his eyes and took Nie Xicheng's hand that was holding him. "Something happened."

"Can you tell me?"

"Okay." He let himself go and leaned back a little, until the last trace of distance between the two disappeared, "What do you want to hear? Or are you..."

"I'll ask you later, this is not a good place to talk." Nie Xicheng pretended not to understand the hint in his words, kissed his temples, let go and pushed him forward, "wait for me outside."

He leaned against the wall and waited for Nie Xicheng to come out. After Nie Xicheng came out, he glanced at the blood-stained clothes in the laundry basket, "I'm going to ask someone to take it and burn it tomorrow. I didn't expect you to come suddenly. You are worried."

"Whose blood is this?"

Nie Xicheng didn't answer his question directly, "Aren't you going to take a shower?"

However, Yi Huai is not so easy to fool, "Wen Fan's side?"

Knowing that he didn't make it clear that the matter was endless, Nie Xicheng sighed helplessly, "Yes, I went a little too far during the questioning, who knew it would be so exaggerated, as if he came out of a murder scene. Go take a shower."

"Oh, I just did the same thing, but not as much as you did."

"Tang Gaozhuo?"

When he went out in the morning, Nie Xicheng reminded him to pay attention to this person.

"Well, I asked my assistant to check his financial transactions and interpersonal relationships, so I knew it was him."

The stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Yi Huai walked slowly towards the cloakroom, but Nie Xicheng forcibly turned the direction halfway.

"I'll get you clothes, you just go in."

·

After Yi Huai took a shower and went into the bedroom, the window of the bedroom was open, and Nie Xicheng was on the armchair sending emails on his tablet.

The road was still dry when he came here, but now it was raining heavily. Hearing the continuous sound of rain outside, his restless mood calmed down a little.

"I remember you smoking," he knew he was out of words, "why don't you smoke now?"

Nie Xicheng looked up at him, then continued to do his own thing with his head down, "I used to smoke, but now I quit."

"Why?" Sitting cross-legged on the edge of the bed, Yi Huai looked at his focused and handsome profile, and found that his eyelashes were longer than he thought, and his heartbeat couldn't help but beat half a beat faster.

"You ask me why?" Nie Xicheng said with a teasing smile in his voice, "Who was choking and coughing at the door?"

Yi Huai was speechless for a while, "That's because..."

"I won't smoke if you don't like it. It's very simple. There's no need to think too much." After sending the last email, Nie Xicheng put the tablet aside, stretched his muscles and bones and prepared to go to bed, "I want to spend a long time with you Living together, such insignificant things shouldn’t be an obstacle between us, and smoking is really not a good habit. I smoked before because it was too depressing. I need something to give me a spiritual support so that I won’t be overwhelmed. Go on, now that I have you, do you think you are less important to me than a pack of cigarettes?"

Yi Huai didn't need to look to know that he was blushing, "How is it possible... Wait, what are you doing?"

Nie Xicheng picked him up and threw him to the other side of the bed, then lay down on the spot where he was sitting just now, "You took my seat."

"Just say no..."

Before Yi Huai finished speaking, he felt a shadow falling in front of his eyes.

"Tell me, what are you worried about? It's impossible for me to bully you with such a sullen look."

Nie Xicheng propped up his upper body with one arm, his dark gray eyes were full of his reflection.

"It's not you who bullied me." Yi Huai couldn't help laughing, and put his arms around Nie Xicheng's neck and pulled him towards him, "I was thinking about a person, and I kept thinking about it, but no matter how I thought about it, there was no answer."

"Luo Yi?"

The smile on Yi Huai's face faded, and he was shrouded in sorrow again, "Well, I'm thinking about him."

It doesn't seem like a good choice to talk about other men in an intimate bed, but he can't think of who he should talk about it with except Nie Xicheng.

"What are you thinking?" Nie Xicheng lay back beside him again, "In other words, what's wrong with him?"

Yi Huai turned over and faced Nie Xicheng face to face, "I can't contact him again."

The reason why I say "again" is because this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. He has been used to Luo Yi's disappearance since a long time ago-this man's timetable does not have the concept of staying for him, so he just I can watch his back in place, and hope that he will not remember that there is someone like me somewhere.

"I know what he's doing, I just want to remind him to be careful of Mo Zhengya, but I just can't get in touch with him,"

A will is a contract that only comes into effect after death, and Mo Zhengya's daring to attack him unscrupulously shows that the other side must have set a more vicious trap for Luo Yi.

He knew that Luo Yi would not be easily plotted against, but just to reassure himself, he still hoped to hear this person say that he was fine, but it turned out that he couldn't even get through Fei Chuan's phone.

He has never hated this person's dictatorship so much. Whether it is concealing their blood relationship or making such a will, this person is always like this, doing what he wants to do, but never caring what he thinks .

"Do you... care about Luo Yi's affairs?"

"...How could I not care?"

He said this subconsciously, and after he finished speaking, he remembered that he hadn't told Nie Xicheng about that, so he couldn't help but froze.

Sure enough, Nie Xicheng's expression became very complicated, "Wen Zhicheng once told me that you are Luo Yi's lover, that's why Luo Yi values ​​you so much."

"I don't have that kind of relationship with him!"

His reaction was a little too intense, and even Nie Xicheng was a little scared.

"Luo Yi and I are not... lovers." He calmed down a little, and emphasized one side again - he felt disgusted even saying these two words.

Mo Zhengya had said similar things to him before, but at that time he didn't take his own affairs to heart, at most he was a bit soundproof when he recalled afterwards, but it's different now, he didn't want Nie Xicheng to misunderstand.

Nie Xicheng froze his hand in the middle of stroking his hair, "I know, you and him can't have that kind of relationship, because even if you can lie with your mouth, you can't lie with your physical reaction."

He knew that what he said just now had a little tentative factor in it - intellectually, he knew that this was impossible, but the emotional jealousy was not so easy to soothe.

"But you have to tell me what the hell you have to do with him, okay?"

Just like he quit smoking for Yi Huai, if they want to live together for a long time, this is a problem that must be solved.

Yi Huai nodded. This was originally his negligence. He was obliged to answer all the doubts of Nie Xicheng, "After my mother disappeared, I always wanted my relatives."

He has been a sensitive child since he was a child, and he can see the likes and dislikes of the people around him. No matter how good Uncle and Auntie Jiang are, they are not his blood-related relatives. They are Nie Xicheng's parents. His is not quite the same.

If Nie Xicheng made a mistake, even someone as gentle as Jiang Xue would reprimand him sharply, but if he made a mistake, he would see a trace of embarrassment in Jiang Xue's eyes.

"So did you find it?"

"Ah."

He found it, he found a relative who had the same blood as himself and cared for him.

He never thought that the wish he made on purpose when he was a teenager would come true one day in the future, "My mother cheated on Luo Guanying, and my biological father is not Yi Sheng but Luo Guanying, so Luo Guanying Yi is my half-brother. It's really ironic, the person I want to escape day and night is the last relative I have in this world."

It turned out that they were blood relatives, and Nie Xicheng was not surprised by the answer - he had vaguely guessed something similar before.

"Then what are you worried about?" Yi Huai's soft black hair was wrapped around his fingertips, and he caressed the man's cheek, "What did Tang Gaozhuo tell you?"

Yi Huai succumbed to this gentle and intimate touch, and closed his eyes little by little, "He said... I am Luo Yi's legal heir, and Mo Zhengya plans to use drugs to control me and make me their cash cow."

As expected of the person who brought down Wen Zhengting with similar means, Nie Xicheng immediately realized the key point, "Are you worried that they will be unfavorable to Luo Yi?"

"Yeah..." Yi Huai said hesitantly, "It's ridiculous, isn't it, who is Luo Yi, I'm actually worried that he's terribly worried."

"What's so ridiculous? Well-intentioned worries and concerns are not ridiculous, no matter who they are."

Nie Xicheng didn't laugh at his unfounded worry, "It's normal for you to worry about your brother who you found so hard to kill someone. Have you decided what to do?"

"Since he refuses to talk to me, I will go to the place where he is to determine his safety."

He had encountered too many things this day, and once he relaxed, he would feel drowsy quickly, and his voice was also filled with deep drowsiness.

"Will you be angry? It's so dangerous, but I still want to do such a willful thing."

"I have one condition. If you agree, I won't be angry."

"What?" Yi Huai opened his eyes and felt his lips being pecked.

"Let my people go with me."

Just this condition?Yi Huai looked at him suspiciously, "No more?"

"What else do you want? Kiss me?" Nie Xicheng flicked his forehead amusedly, "I want to kiss you, but do I need to put some conditions?"

"...Smelly rascal." Yi Huai dodged his hands, "I promise you, but I'm leaving tomorrow morning..."

It's just that it's okay to be in Rongcheng, but he doesn't have enough manpower to go to Mo Zhengya's territory. The conditions proposed by Nie Xicheng are undoubtedly a timely help for him.

"It won't delay you." Nie Xicheng turned off the desk lamp, "Go to sleep, I have something to attend to tomorrow."

Yi Huai closed his eyes and breathed evenly after a while, and after confirming that he was really fast asleep, Nie Xicheng opened his eyes.

He took something from the drawer of the bedside table, took the left ring finger of the person next to him and stamped it, leaving a clear mark.

The man had really nice hands, with well-proportioned knuckles and neatly trimmed nails.

"It's really suitable for playing the piano." Immediately afterwards, he remembered the appearance of holding a gun in both hands, and couldn't help leaving a fleeting kiss on the fingertips devoutly, "Thank you, you have worked hard, I hope you will be willing when the time comes." Take my ring."
