A Li
Shao Liyin fed Tong Xiaolai a cold medicine, and Tong Xiaolai fell asleep due to exhaustion and fear.
He stroked Tong Xiaolai's hair, one strand at a time, until the person on the bed fell into a peaceful sleep. Then he sat down on the balcony floor somewhat dejectedly, with his back against the balcony door, looking at the dark night sky, his heart filled with a deep sense of powerlessness.
Is this the only way? Is there a better way...
Fang Zhiheng's words before he left, like the devil's chant, lingered in his ears for a long time.
He will come back, he will come back to take Xiaolai away. Xiaolai will return to that dark basement and return to the side of this devil.
What might Xiaolai face in the future? Even a moment's thought of this would cause suffocating despair.
As Shao Liyin, he was powerless. He couldn't stop it...
They are rich, powerful, influential, famous and well-known, while he is just a wanderer without even parents, an ant that they can crush to death with one hand.
His head sank deeply into his knees, his hands grasped his hair, and he fell into deep self-blame and fear. He was too small and useless.
He could bluff a bit this afternoon. In three days at most, maybe two, maybe one day, they would have all the paperwork and documents ready and could take Xiaolai away legally...
That was an abyss, how could he make the laughter go back...
The figure of Xiaolai curled up in the darkness and sleeping, the figure who said that he had not slept in a bed for three years and insisted on sleeping on the floor, and the figure who saw Fang Zhiheng trembling as if he was on the edge of the abyss.
Thinking of him, my heart felt like it was being pulled and torn with pain.
His smile should bring him a bright future and a radiant future.
To love someone is to love them with all your heart and soul, he told himself.
He made a phone call: "Sister Afeng, it's me, Xiaoyin, I need your help..."
After hanging up the phone, he opened the balcony door and lay on the bed on his side. Tong Xiaolai opened her eyes and looked at him.
"Brother Li..."
He smiled and pinched Tong Xiaolai's cheek: "Awake?"
Tong Xiaolai blinked twice: "Brother Li, I won't go with them, I only follow you."
"I know."
"But Brother Li, I don't want you to suffer." Tong Xiaolai paused, his eyes reddened, "Brother Li, if I leave, don't forget me."
"What nonsense are you talking about, you fool? No one can take you away as long as I am here." Shao Linyin responded softly with a hint of rebuke.
Tong Xiaolai looked at him, with a kind of reluctance and determination in her eyes. He smiled and covered her eyes with his hands: "My Xiaolai is smart and capable. She will have a bright future with great brilliance." There was a reassuring power in her voice.
Tong Xiaolai didn't say anything, he just moved closer to Shao Linyin, as if no one could separate them, as if they could keep each other's breath forever.
Shao Liyin stroked the hair on the back of his head, one by one: "Smile..."
"Brother Li..."
Shao Liyin placed a kiss on his forehead, stroked the hair on the back of his head, and gently placed him on her chest: "Xiaolai, call me A-Li."
"Ali..."
"Xiaolai, promise me that you will eat well, not skip three meals a day, sleep well, get eight hours of sleep a day, study hard, and live a good life. Don't run out of milk and fruit, and remember to buy new clothes in both winter and summer."
"Okay, Ali too."
"Xiaolai, remember to take the college entrance examination, choose the major you like, and do the job you like in the future."
"Okay, I'll listen to Ali."
"Xiaolai, carry wind chimes with you wherever you go, okay? I made a new set for your birthday yesterday. This one isn't ugly, I guarantee you'll be able to tell it's a wind chime at a glance, no need to guess."
The two of them laughed softly.
After the laugh, the room fell silent.
Tong Xiaolai listened to the heartbeat coming from Shao Liyin's chest and choked up, "Okay, I'll take everything that A-Li has and keep it with me forever."
"What a pity! I didn't get to eat the cake again this time."
There was a moment of silence, and no one dared to say the next time.
"Xiao Lai..." Thank you for giving me these two years.
"Ali..." I'm sorry, I shouldn't have looked for you at the beginning.
"Go to sleep. Everything will be fine after you wake up." Shao Linyin stroked his hair.
Under the effect of the cold medicine, Tong Xiaolai fell asleep.
Shao Liyin looked at the sleeping Tong Xiaolai, and he understood from his eyes that the silly boy was afraid of implicating him, so he was preparing to go back to find that madman himself.
"Why do people say you're a genius? You're obviously just a fool!"
Shao Linyin sat by the bed all night. He couldn't get enough of looking at this face. He wanted to imprint it firmly in his mind and never forget it.
When the sky was getting light, he put on his cleanest and best clothes, and placed all his bank cards, cell phones, and keys on the table, pressing them on a letter.
He went out and took a taxi. It was the first time he had taken a taxi in so many years, simply because there was no bus to that place.
When the taxi arrived at the destination, the driver repeatedly confirmed the address with him, simply because his clothes really didn't suit the place.
Shao Linyin took out the only hundred-yuan note he had taken out that morning and handed it to the driver.
He also said generously, "No need to change it, because I won't need the money anymore."
The castle-like villa had an iron gate as spacious as a city gate that slowly opened and then slowly closed behind him.
This is a cage, and inside the cage is a man-eating monster.
"Welcome home, Second Young Master!"
There were hundreds of servants lined up in two rows, bowing to Shao Linyin one by one until he arrived at the hall in the main villa.
Sitting on the sofa in the middle was a dignified middle-aged man. Next to him was a gorgeous woman. Next to the woman was a sickly young man sitting in a wheelchair.
Shao Linyin glanced around and his eyes fell on the face of the dignified middle-aged man: "I'm at your disposal. You must handle what I said within one day."
The middle-aged man seemed to be suppressing his anger: "You are standing here, and you think you still have room for bargaining?"
"I can choose to die, you know I can."
There were people in the room, but no one dared to say a word.
The woman at the side stepped in to smooth things over: "It's not a big deal, it can be dealt with today. But you've been on the run for all these years, and Nan Qiao's health has been deteriorating. You have to take responsibility."
Shao Linyin pursed her lips, and the young man next to her, Fu Nanqiao, coughed lightly twice.
"I said, I'm at your disposal." Shao Linyin said without any interest.
Shao Liyin was surrounded by three men in white coats and escorted down. The middle-aged man said behind him, "If you dare to run again, that child named Fang Zheyuan will become like your mother."
Shao Liyin chuckled softly: "Fu Zhenhuai, do you know who made Mom's last few words so painful?"
He raised his head slightly, with crystals in the corners of his eyes: "It's not me, it's you, it's all of you."
Behind the villa in the main building is a private hospital. He was taken to the monitoring room and after a round of disinfection, he was pressed onto the cold bed.
The monitoring threads of various instruments were attached to his body. The doctor inserted a needle into his body. He trembled uncontrollably, and then he was held down and tied tightly with a belt.
His face was pale and sweaty. He stared at the lighted white ceiling with a blurry gaze. His dark blue lips trembled, "Xiao Lai... You must take care of yourself. You will definitely have a bright future, a brilliant one..."
