Chapter 230 Extra: Past Life (22)
Zhou Chong also locked the outside door.
6
Never mind, 36 it is.
Besides 6, it's still 6.
As Shan Qingshan lay in bed, thinking about last night, he silently pulled the blanket over half of his face.
Alcohol is harmful.
Being half-drunk or not drunk can be deadly.
The body died, but the consciousness did not; it was perfectly lucid and remembered everything.
It's terrifying.
Dan Qingshan lay on the bed for a while, then propped himself up to sit up and got dressed.
There was a glass of warm water by the bedside; I don't know when it was poured out.
Shan Qingshan finished drinking it.
My phone rang.
The incoming call was from a number.
Shan Qingshan remembered this number.
It's Huo Yuan.
My heart tightened instantly.
An ominous premonition made Shan Qingshan hesitate for a moment to answer the phone.
Shan Qingshan answered the phone.
Huo Yuan said urgently, "Come down and come with me, I'll be there soon."
"What happened?"
Huo Yuan cut to the chase, “Wen Zhu didn’t meet with me. I’m worried he’s been exposed. If he is, the other side will definitely find you. You have to come with me.”
Shan Qingshan's heart sank to the bottom.
My mind went completely blank.
Walk?
At this time?
He clung to the faint hope, refusing to believe.
"We just didn't meet."
"Shan Qingshan, do you not want to leave? If you don't leave, everyone around you will suffer! If you don't tell, he will find someone you care about and force you to tell! Even if you do tell, they will retaliate against you with the people you care about most."
Shan Qingshan's hopes were completely shattered.
My heart sank into an abyss.
He closed his eyes in pain.
I regret it so much my heart aches.
If he had known it would turn out this way, he shouldn't have hugged Zhou Chong yesterday.
Huo Yuan: "Come with me."
The sound of a door opening came from outside.
Shan Qingshan knew who had come.
Hearing the approaching, cheerful footsteps, he replied softly, "Give me ten minutes."
"good."
The call ended.
Shan Qingshan stepped forward and locked the bedroom door from the inside.
Then she slowly pressed herself against the door, imagining herself nestled in Zhou Chong's arms.
The outer lock was opened.
Zhou Chong tried to open the door but couldn't, and laughed outside.
"Awake? When did you wake up? Let me in."
Shan Qingshan did not answer.
Zhou Chong knocked on the door patiently and gently.
"Qingshan Xiaobao, open the door."
"Even if you're shy, you have to take your medicine first. You have a slight fever, aren't you feeling unwell?"
"Hey? Honey, talk to me."
Shan Qingshan felt like a fishbone stuck in his throat.
"sorry."
Zhou Chong, standing outside the door, froze, his face grim.
"Are you going to back out?"
A single, incisive sentence laid bare the bloody truth of the matter.
Shan Qingshan: "I got drunk yesterday."
Zhou Chong: "I gave you a chance to back out yesterday."
Shan Qingshan: "I was drunk all day yesterday."
Zhou Chong laughed, but it was clearly a laugh born of anger.
After a while, gritting his teeth, he said, "Fine, you're so great, so capable. Just consider it as me letting you sleep with me for free. Open the door! Take your medicine!"
The knocking was no longer gentle.
It was hit with a fist.
The morning light shone into the room, making Shan Qingshan's pale face impossible to hide.
"You can leave now."
Zhou Chong never expected to hear this.
There was no response for a long time.
After a long silence, he finally asked, "Don't you want my feelings?"
Shan Qingshan was on the verge of collapse.
want!
He wants it!
"I don't want to."
"Then why did you stop me yesterday?"
Because I like you.
"I told you to back out, why don't you back out? Were you really that drunk yesterday? We're both men, what the hell are you giving me as an excuse about being drunk?"
Dan Qingshan closed his eyes, numb with pain, and spoke incoherently.
"Why don't you understand?"
"What?"
"Let's play."
It's quiet outside.
"Aren't there many young masters like you all the time?"
"I don't believe you! Open the door! Look me in the eye and say it!"
"Looking you in the eyes, I can say it too! Isn't that right? In the eyes of someone like you, I am nothing but a plaything!"
Zhou Chong retorted, "No!"
Dan Qingshan seemed not to hear him and continued speaking in despair.
"For people to enjoy at will, and then discarded."
Zhou Chong retorted, "I can't!"
"Even in the future, when people talk about it, I'll still be the topic of conversation among your circle about my youthful charm. And the me in front of you might one day become a shameless little star who climbed into other people's beds, a plaything to be trampled on!"
"impossible!"
"What makes you so sure it's impossible!"
Because I like you!
Dan Qingshan's eyes instantly reddened, and his vision blurred with tears.
I don't like you.
"Go away, stop being a jerk, and don't come back again."
There was a moment of silence outside.
Shan Qingshan heard the sound of the medicine box hitting the ground.
Zhou Chong's voice was cold and unfamiliar.
"As you wish."
-
Shan Qingshan got into Huo Yuan's car empty-handed.
Huo Yuan noticed that his eyes were red, as if he had been crying, so he didn't dare to ask or linger and quickly took him away from the film studio.
"The situation happened suddenly, and we don't know where to put you for the time being."
"casual."
"Staying at my colleague's house?"
"It will be all right."
Huo Yuan: "..."
The carriage fell into dead silence.
After a long pause, Huo Yuan said, "I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."
"It's not your fault, you didn't do anything wrong. Nobody wants Wenzhu to be exposed. Is he alright?"
"I don't know, but they've already sent people to rescue you." Huo Yuan glanced at him, worried. "Are you alright? Whatever happened, I can explain things to you once things have calmed down."
Shan Qingshan opened the car window to let the wind in.
His eyes darkened layer by layer until they were completely dark.
"We'll see. Maybe it's fate that I'm not meant to have some things."
Even if you are brave, unexpected complications may arise.
-
Just as Huo Yuan predicted.
Tao Guang went to Shan Qingshan's house.
Fortunately, they acted quickly and had already left.
The evidence Wenzhu passed on to Shan Qingshan led the police to shut down several clubs and mahjong parlors, and arrest many people. Although the operation seemed large-scale, they were actually just small fry, far from enough to seriously harm the "big boss."
The state of Haoluo is now heavily guarded, and Huo Yuan tried every means to risk going in five or six times but still couldn't find Wenzhu.
The number of cigarette butts in Huo Yuan's ashtray increased day by day.
It wasn't until Shan Qingshan saw the photos Huo Yuan brought back asking everyone to help find clues that he discovered the wine Huo Yuan had bought for Wenzhu was on the shelf.
There was a feeling, deep down, about Shan Qingshan.
He suggested that Huo Yuan take a look at the bottle of wine that had appeared on the shelf.
Huo Yuan went to check and found an SD card on the back of the label.
The card contains a wealth of ample evidence: photos, audio recordings, and even videos.
Police raided dozens of dens and arrested more than a dozen people involved in the case.
The day Wenzhu was rescued, he spat a mouthful of blood onto Huo Yuan.
"Damn it, this is so slow!"
"No chemistry, let's change partners. I'll report back when we get back."
Huo Yuan took the person from him, saying, "I won't change him, I won't change him."
Wenzhu chuckled and was put into an ambulance.
A week later, the case was nearing its end.
Shan Qingshan received the termination agreement.
Huo Yuan: "Jing Tuo said that once you regain your freedom, you have to treat him to a meal after he is discharged from the hospital."
Shan Qingshan put the contract away and looked out the window.
Huo Yuan asked, "Is there anywhere you'd like to go? I'll take you there."
Shan Qingshan remained silent.
Huo Yuan then asked, "Is there anyone you want to see? Do you need my help?"
Shan Qingshan slowly turned his head and looked at Huo Yuan.
Yes, it is necessary.
