Yang Lin once asked Hu Li: When will you have a showdown with your precious brother?

Hu Li's answer at the time was: Never, unless something major happens.

Yang Lin was anxious in his heart, feeling that his friend was a bit too unpredictable, what did it mean that something big happened?This is exactly Schrödinger's cat.

But he didn't expect that the big event would be so inexplicable and happen suddenly.

In November, an appalling social news was made public——a research laboratory tried drugs on human body in order to test its research results, causing death.

Those who test the drug are voluntary, and they have signed a disclaimer in private, but after all, it is an act that violates morality. The industry is tacit about the secret transaction, and it is rarely brought up on the table.

This time of exposure, it was obvious that someone deliberately targeted it. There was a lot of uproar in such a short period of time. The power behind it should not be underestimated. Yang Lin just treated it as a melon when he was bored, and ate it casually until he saw the name of the person in charge of the project.

Surname He.

His expression changed, and he hurriedly called Hu Li.

"Hello?" The voice over there was as usual, as if nothing happened, but Yang Lin knew it was not that simple.

"What the hell are you doing?" Yang Lin knew Hu Li well, he could completely stop this kind of thing, if he didn't stop it, it could only mean that he wanted it to happen.

"Yeah." Hu Li's tone was light, he was boiling water.

"You are such a lunatic!" Yang Lin was excited, feeling that he had gotten a big deal, "Aren't you the shareholder behind the scenes? You won't be implicated if something happens?"

"Without sacrifice, there is no reward." Hu Li said calmly.

"Fuck me, fuck me!" Yang Lin said incoherently, "I love you so much! Does your brother know?"

"Yeah." The water was already boiling, and steam was coming out, "I still have something to do, let's talk when I have time."

Hu Li went upstairs with hot water, stopped by the bathroom door and knocked: "Brother, open the door, take the medicine first."

There was no response for a long time, so he could only go to the study to find a spare key.He thought about this matter for a long time, and finally chose the most violent way to deal with it.

He didn't know about the fact that He Zheng's laboratory used people to test drugs.The person He Zheng was looking for secretly, the victim was a poor student whose mother was sick and had no choice but to make quick money through this extreme method. One trial was [-] yuan, which could solve his urgent needs.

In fact, He Zheng is quite conscientious, he only tried once for each person, and it was the tested standard content, but this student was too short of money, begged him for a long time, and was even willing to try the medicine at a low price, only 1 yuan a time, He Zheng Seeing that he was pitiful and wanted to be cheap, he agreed.

Unexpectedly, something happened the third time. The child collapsed in the hospital, in front of his mother's bed. At that time, the doctor took the fastest rescue measures, but finally failed to save his life. The cause of death: food poisoning.

The child's mother committed suicide two days after he left, and the family suffered a lot. The last ones who went to the research institute were those relatives who didn't care about it and came to pay compensation when something happened.

Coincidentally, that student was studying at Dongda University, and he was Hu Li's junior. The two had no friendship, and only met a few times at the student union meeting.

Hu Li had no impression of this person, only remembered that people around him discussed him at the selection meeting.It is said that he is a strong student. The difficult living environment did not kill his will, and the cynicism of the people around him did not quench his enthusiasm. He has come to the present step by step through his own efforts.

He is a good boy, but it is a pity that his life is not good.

On the night when Hu Li was about to suppress the news, he suddenly remembered the child's bright eyes full of hope when he was giving a speech on the campaign for cadres.

In the end, he put down the phone, thinking that everything in this world has a cause and effect, and any mistake has a price to pay, no matter who the person who made the mistake is.Although he might hurt his beloved brother in the end, this time he couldn't indulge with peace of mind. As a cover-up criminal, he set a fire himself, intending to burn all the cancerous tumors away.

He Zheng was arrested, and he didn't even have a chance to defend himself. The public opinion was one-sided, saying that he ate human blood, that he violated his moral conscience, and that he had to pay for his life. He didn't dare to say anything, so he begged the police officer to contact Hu Li and send a lawyer for him.

Hu Li was very busy at that time. He had to deal with the follow-up work of the research institute, asked his client to come forward to apologize and negotiate compensation, and he also had to settle Liu Ximei who had fainted.

In the end, he went to pick up He Xi himself. The address of He's family had been doomed, and they had been besieged to seek justice.

He Xi was in a trance, and only said one word to Hu Li, and he asked, "Is it true?"

Seeing that Hu Li nodded, he stopped talking and followed Hu Li without saying a word.

Hu Li knew that he had a happy family since he was a child, and he grew up happily without any twists and turns, as clean and transparent as a spring of water.

He couldn't accept this sudden change, like the sky suddenly collapsed and everything was broken, what Hu Li can do is to face it with him.

Hu Li opened the door, and He Xi soaked himself in the bathtub. The water overflowed the floor, and the whole bathroom was wet. The water in the bathtub had already cooled down, and the biting temperature could not keep him awake.

He just can't figure it out, he can't figure it out, how could a father who loves life so much, who told him to protect the environment and animals when he was young, kill someone?

Hu Li sighed, bent down and picked up the person in the water. It's only been two days. How did he lose so much weight?Hu Li took the bath towel from the shelf, wrapped him tightly, and carried him to the bed in the bedroom.

This time his elder brother was very good, neither aggressive nor troublesome, he let him be hugged in his arms, and even put his arms around his neck, like an insecure child.Hu Li's heart ached terribly. He felt his heart was soaked in lemonade, sore and painful. He suddenly regretted that he made his brother pay the price in order to remove the cancer.

"Brother, take the cold medicine and sleep for a while." Hu Li changed his clothes, wrapped him in the quilt, touched his obviously warm forehead, and said worriedly, "I'll make you something to eat." Yes, you haven't eaten all day."

"Don't go..." He Xi reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, her voice was unprecedentedly fragile, "Turn off the light and lie down with me."

He Xi never knew that he needed Hu Li so much. It seemed that without Hu Li, the oxygen in the air would be taken away, making him unable to breathe. It seemed that as long as Hu Li left, all the warmth in the world would be taken away, making him feel It was freezing cold.

Hu Li paused, and put his hand on his: "Okay, I'll accompany you."

"Brother, don't worry, this matter will pass soon, and uncle and aunt will be fine." Hu Li pressed him into his arms, feeling his heart wet, and silently rubbed He Xi's hair.

He Xi shook her head: "No, my dad did something wrong."

He can tell right from wrong, he knows right from wrong, even though that is his closest relative, he will be punished if he does something wrong.

"Can you contact the victim's family?" He Xi squeezed her fingers and whispered, "I still have some savings, I can pay them."

Hu Li caressed his back, and coaxed him helplessly: "I paid all the money. The child signed a disclaimer when he tested the medicine. Although it may not have legal effect, he can defend his uncle."

"I can take care of everything, you don't have to worry about anything, I'm here." Hu Li lowered his head and kissed the top of his head.

After Hu Li fell asleep with He Xi, he got up, quietly closed the door, and went downstairs to deal with the follow-up work.

"What? Now you want to get it out again? You need to find a publicist again?" The person over there was slightly angry, "Why did you go there so early, the matter has escalated to this point, it is very difficult to handle."

"I know." Hu Li nodded, "It doesn't matter how much it costs."

"Boss, you are really crazy." The secretary over there almost laughed angrily, "Can you tell me the reason?"

Hu Li pondered for a moment, he just couldn't bear it, he didn't want his brother to be so sad: "There is no reason, I will do what I entrusted to you."

"Yes." The secretary was speechless, thinking that children are so naive, but there is no way, who told him to be rich!

In the middle of the night, He Xi started to have a fever. The excessively high temperature woke Hu Li up. He took He Xi's temperature and it was 39.8°C. He was so scared that he hurriedly put on his clothes and was about to send his brother to the hospital with the car keys.

He Xi was in a daze, unwilling to get up, and pushed him away: "Where are you going?"

"You have a fever." Hu Li reached out to hug him again, "Let's go to the hospital."

"I'm not going!" He Xi struggled fiercely, he was very resistant to leaving here now, "I'm not going anywhere!"

Hu Li felt distressed, but he had no choice but to rely on him in everything.He took antipyretics for He Xi, and physically lowered his temperature, but found that it didn't help much, so he was so anxious that he could only ask for foreign help.

"Do you know what time it is?" Yang Lin yelled, "You are fucking crazy and call me at three o'clock in the middle of the night!"

"Lend me your family doctor." Hu Li said.

"No! Get lost!" Yang Lin was annoyed.

"I promise the thing you mentioned last time."

"Yo, are you willing?" Yang Lin said with a smile, "Wait!"

It was dawn when the family doctor left Hu's house. At that time, He Xi's body temperature had begun to return to normal, and she was lying quietly on the bed and sleeping.

Hu Li didn't sleep all night, his new green and black beard was too late to shave, he looked a little embarrassed, squatting on the bedside, looking at He Xi's face in the rising sunlight, recalling all the memories about He Xi in his mind over again.

He remembered that he also had a high fever when he was a child. The He family was busy all night. Uncle He carried him to a nearby clinic. The villa was located in a remote place. It took him a long time to find a small clinic. After the infusion, he carried him back home. Home.

His consciousness was fuzzy, and he only vaguely remembered He Xi holding his hand and guarding the bedside all night.In fact, the He family had never treated him badly, no matter what purpose they had in raising him, they always treated him well.

Especially He Xi, he is so sincere and clean, Hu Li is reluctant to pollute him, he has thought countless times, or just be a brother for the rest of his life, he will watch his brother fall in love, get married and have children, and grow old Go, he just needs to stand behind and care about him silently, and smooth out all the misfortunes for him.

But he is not reconciled, whenever he feels that he is fully prepared to fulfill it, He Xi can shatter all his persistence with a gentle look at others.

He can't achieve the so-called magnanimity at all, he can't let others give He Xi happiness, because there is no one in this world who loves He Xi more than him, he can obviously, why can't he?

He Xi is the only dissatisfaction in his life, the hand he wanted to reach out thousands of times but had to let go.

It was the sudden heavy rain at midnight, lonely and unknown.

It is the first ray of sunlight in the morning, green, obscure and unforgettable.

It was the person he liked at first sight when he could see the world clearly.

Also, all of his dare not, can't, shouldn't.

Thinking to this point, Hu Li carefully touched He Xi's hand, held it tightly, and gently put it to his mouth to kiss.

He has too many things to say, but now there is only silence left, all kinds of thoughts, all kinds of love, family, friendship or love, he doesn't care at all, only that sentence represents his whole heart:

"Brother, I love you."

Finally, he said so.
