3-22: Countdown to the Little Beauty's Escape
In the end, Huai Yan fled in disarray.
Actually, he hasn't given up yet.
Whether it was what he had seen with his own eyes before or what Lu Yu had said, Huai Yan struggled with this question in his heart for a long time.
Finally, he decided to go home and verify it for himself.
Bai Wenzhou used to always come home, no matter what his work was or how late it was.
If the man doesn't come back tonight, then Lu Yu's words will most likely be confirmed.
What important thing could make a man stay out all night?
Just by looking at the knees, you can tell it's in a hotel.
"Don't overthink it," 073 sighed as he watched the boy rush home. "It's normal for Bai Wenzhou to be in a relationship."
If a man has no feelings for a young boy, then there's nothing wrong with dating him.
Having lived together for so long, Huaiyan still felt a little reluctant to part ways with Bai Wenzhou and Gao Mingze.
"but--"
073 suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How did Lu Yu know about Bai Wenzhou and Gao Mingze's affair?"
Lu Yu is only in college now, how could he have so many channels to know about these things?
“Lu Yu’s family was already wealthy,” Huai Yan replied as she boarded the last subway train. “He also bought an apartment across from mine.”
When Lu Yu found Huai Yan's address, he bought the apartment across from the boy.
The apartment across the street used to be occupied.
I don't know what method Lu Yu used to be able to move in with just his bags in such a short time.
Upon hearing this, 073 sighed inwardly again.
Since there are routes to Luyu, there are also some unconventional and decisive methods.
So the things about Bai Wenzhou are probably true.
After all, Lu Yu had no reason to fabricate facts and risk being disliked by the boy to tell this lie.
Huai Yan clearly thought of these things as well.
After getting off the subway, Huaiyan walked home with trepidation.
When they got home, the living room lights were still off, and there was no sound from Bai Wenzhou's study.
The man hasn't returned yet.
Huaiyan sat on the sofa, somewhat anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
It's already 10 p.m.
Normally, when Bai Wenzhou and Zhang Sheng go out on business or have to attend parties, they do so.
The man will be back before midnight at the latest.
Huai Yan pondered for a moment and secretly made up his mind.
If Bai Wenzhou doesn't come back tonight, or if he arrives later than usual...
So he found a time when the man wasn't around and quietly moved out.
Huaiyan was already quite adept at this kind of thing.
In any case, Jiang Yuxing has already completed most of his task.
Although Huaiyan had already prepared for the worst.
But he secretly hoped that Bai Wenzhou wouldn't disappoint him.
The mad dog hasn't been successfully tamed yet; it can only be considered a failure.
-
There was a noise coming from the entrance hall, as if someone was opening the door.
It's already past midnight, almost one o'clock.
The boy woke up with a start, immediately stood up from the sofa, and stared blankly at the door.
The initial tension and anxiety had long since dissipated during the waiting process.
A few seconds later, the sound of the combination lock unlocking came from the door.
Bai Wenzhou pushed open the door, a gentle evening breeze enveloping him, and stood in the entryway.
The boy's expression turned to surprise, his eyes gleaming with a shimmering golden light.
But the moment he saw what was behind Bai Wenzhou, his heart sank.
Bai Wenzhou has returned.
She also brought back a man.
The person who came was about 1.7 meters tall, close to 1.8 meters.
Standing next to Bai Wenzhou, she appeared somewhat petite and dependent.
The other person was beautiful, with affectionate eyes, truly a pair of amorous peach blossom eyes.
Huaiyan recognized the man almost instantly.
This afternoon, when he saw Bai Wenzhou enter the company gate, he also saw the man.
It's Gao Mingze.
Huaiyan's already anxious heart sank to the bottom.
"Not asleep?"
Bai Wenzhou seemed a little surprised, changed his shoes and walked into the living room. "It's one o'clock, what are you doing standing here?"
As he spoke, Bai Wenzhou ruffled the boy's hair and pulled him into his arms.
The boy did not answer, but stared blankly at the person behind Bai Wenzhou.
He felt that Gao Mingze looked somewhat familiar.
The boy seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite place him.
Gao Mingze naturally noticed the boy's gaze.
Immediately, he remembered that this was the child in Bai Wenzhou's car that afternoon.
Gao Mingze smiled gently, bent down slightly, and greeted the boy: "Hello."
Huai Yan trembled all over, stubbornly hiding in Bai Wenzhou's arms, only revealing a pair of bright almond-shaped eyes.
He didn't say anything, he just looked at Gao Mingze.
The boy thought to himself sullenly.
So this is the kind of person who occupies one of the few places in Bai Wenzhou's heart.
Gao Mingze wasn't embarrassed at all.
He straightened up and looked helplessly at Bai Wenzhou.
Bai Wenzhou gently stroked the boy's back back and forth.
The man's voice was deep and pleasant: "The child is shy, don't tease him."
"Really?" Gao Mingze then smiled, seemingly casually, "So much time has passed, and you've already learned to take care of children."
For some reason, Gao Mingze's tone carried a hint of nostalgia and emotion.
He blinked, looking intently into Bai Wenzhou's eyes, a strange sadness in them.
Bai Wenzhou did not react in any way.
The man simply responded indifferently and affectionately pinched Huaiyan's ear.
Then, Bai Wenzhou released the boy and settled him on the sofa.
Let's go.
Bai Wenzhou didn't look at Gao Mingze, turned around and went into the study first.
Gao Mingze was taken aback, then waved apologetically to Huai Yan and followed her into the study.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Huaiyan dejectedly turned her gaze away.
He got up from the sofa and sat blankly in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, overlooking the city's night view.
From this angle and floor, Huaiyan can see almost the entire most bustling central area of Licheng.
It was past 1 a.m., but the city center was still bustling with traffic and people.
Huaiyan leaned weakly against the French windows, her emerald eyes lowered, lost in thought.
To be honest, Huaiyan thinks Gao Mingze is very outstanding.
The other person's every move exuded a sense of composure and dignity, somewhat similar to Bai Wenzhou's temperament.
The two seem to be a perfect match, and both must have powerful family backgrounds.
In particular, Gao Mingze sensed Huai Yan's unfriendly gaze.
He continued to smile, as if he didn't take the boy's unkindness to heart.
Gao Mingze was even somewhat gentle, with a mild tone and beautiful eyes.
When you stare at him, those watery, amorous peach blossom eyes seem to draw you in.
Huaiyan couldn't bring herself to harbor any more malice towards such a person.
The boy's chest filled with even more resentment, and his eyes reddened slightly.
"Host."
073 suddenly hesitated and asked, "Don't you think Gao Mingze looks somewhat familiar?"
Huai Yan paused, then asked incredulously, "You... you noticed too?"
“Yes.” 073 gasped. “I think…”
073 didn't finish his sentence, leaving the reader with a sense of unfinished business.
Huaiyan didn't understand and said to herself, "But I've thought about it for a long time and I still can't remember where I've seen it before."
073 frowned and remained silent for a moment.
"Host." After thinking for a moment, 073 decided to be direct, "Haven't you noticed that Gao Mingze..."
He said firmly, "Do I look a lot like you?"
A thunderclap suddenly erupted from the ground.
These words, as heavy as a boulder, crashed into Huai Yan's heart.
It stirred up a storm.
Gao Mingze looks like him?!
Huai Yan felt as if, in an instant, all the blood in her body was flowing backward, her scalp was tingling, and her ears were ringing.
The boy experienced a brief period of tinnitus due to the immense impact.
"You... what did you say?" Unable to hear his own voice, the boy said somewhat absentmindedly, "Gao Mingze..."
How could Gao Mingze look like him?
No wonder I saw Gao Mingze through the car window this afternoon.
A sense of unease welled up in Huaiyan's heart.
He originally thought he could escape, but Bai Wenzhou brought him home.
Huai Yan had nowhere to go.
He even felt that there was only one option in front of him now.
Leaving Bai Wenzhou.
073 looked at its host, who looked completely lost.
He couldn't help but let out a deep sigh of relief.
It's better to break it now than to go through repeated back and forth later.
"You should have noticed it at first glance."
073 looked at the tightly closed study door and sighed, "Gao Mingze and you really are very similar."
It's not just about appearance.
Even the gentle and reserved temperament he exudes is exactly the same as Huai Yan's.
Anyone who saw them would think they were probably brothers.
Even the smiles in their eyes and brows are exactly the same.
Huaiyan's throat tightened for a moment, and the result of the tension and tinnitus was that she could no longer utter a single word.
He quietly recalled the conversation between Bai Wenzhou and Gao Mingze.
And there's that line in 073: he really misses Gao Mingze.
Huaiyan suddenly felt a little tired.
It's that feeling of weariness that comes after experiencing dramatic mood swings and eventually settling into a state of calm.
He probably won't be able to tame this mad dog.
The events unfolded exactly as he had anticipated, and his disappointment with Bai Wenzhou far outweighed his interest.
Huaiyan lowered his eyes and stood up wearily in front of the French windows.
As night fell, the boy's small, fragile body was reflected in the French windows.
Huaiyan stepped forward and carefully looked at the boy in the glass.
Just a few months ago, the boy's chin was thin, and Bai Wenzhou could pinch it with one hand.
Now, the boy has become more well-proportioned; although he is still thin, he has a more fleshy appearance.
This is the boy whom Bai Wenzhou raised single-handedly; he is delicate and beautiful.
But it's hard to tell the truth.
Huaiyan's voice was hoarse, and she finally managed to squeeze out a few syllables.
"you guess……"
What are they doing in there?
