Looking at the message sent by Fu Chong on the phone, Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes, and the originally happy expression gradually faded from his face, and slowly changed into a faint disappointment and inexplicable sadness.

The dishes on the table seemed to suddenly lose their attractive aroma, and became tasteless and insipid. He casually took two bites and drank a little lemonade. The sour taste stimulated his taste buds and seemed to stimulate his nerves , he suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find a clue for a while.

He dropped his chopsticks and called A Biao, telling him to pick him up right away. At that moment, he even had the urge to go to Fu Chong's new house to see him, "Calm down, his house is messed up enough for him." It's over," he persuaded himself in his heart as he walked out, until he got into the car parked at the door, "go back to the hotel."

"Don't you wait for Xiao Fu?" A Biao was stunned for a moment, and asked softly.

"He didn't come over because of something at home." Lin Yuan leaned on the back seat and closed his eyes.

"No way? I saw him! When I left, I was at the bar on the first floor to help you rush food. He didn't see me and went upstairs... Did I read it wrong?" A Biao started the car, Glancing quietly towards the back seat from the rearview mirror, he saw Lin Yuan's slightly opened eyes with a strange expression.

"Hmm...you can't be mistaken, he probably had some urgent business and left without entering the house." Lin Yuan said lightly, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.It's just that the fingers he kept tapping on his legs couldn't fool himself, nor could he fool the eyes of the special soldier who knew his habits well.

Yes, Ah Biao's eyes of military origin can't be mistaken, so Fu Chong's performance today seems a little abnormal.He has already arrived at the restaurant and went up to the second floor. He knows that he is waiting for him in the room. With his personality, no matter how urgent something is, he will say hello to himself, and he will never turn around and leave .

Before Lin Yuan's eyes, one scene after another appeared like a movie.He seems to have seen Fu Chong walking up the stairs quietly, and with his familiar handsome eyes, he came to the door of private room 202. , gone, scattered...

It was as if the computer had suddenly jammed the disc, and the camera stopped moving, pausing on himself who was talking about the dewy marriage in the private room and Fu Chong who was looking sadly outside the door.

Lin Yuan felt a chill on his back.This kid has been hurt deeply enough by him recently, intentionally or unintentionally, if it's really what he thinks...he can almost foresee the bitterness and aggrievedness rolling in Fu Chong's heart.

He grabbed his cell phone and called out, but the other party's call could not be connected. "Fuck!" Lin Yuan threw his phone aside depressedly. At this moment, if Ah Biao wasn't in the car, he even had the urge to slap himself.

Back at the hotel, when the elevator passed the 21st floor, Lin Yuan remembered the excited and touched tone of the boy when he told Ethan to help his mother contact the doctor and the hospital.Only at this time did he realize that he could hardly remember the boy's appearance clearly, and the imagination and desire about men in his mind had merged into one and only face unconsciously... His face .

The room was still so deserted that he was depressingly lonely. There was no strong figure of Fu Chong walking in the living room, busy in the kitchen, tidying up in the study, sleeping on the bed... It seemed that even the lights became dim because of this, and even the air All quietly become thinner.He was too lazy to stay in the living room and went straight to the bedroom.It seems that only on that wide bed can I feel the common taste and common existence between myself and him.

He turned on the light in the bedroom, and there seemed to be something wrong in the room. The door of the big wardrobe was opened, and it stood alone in the neat and tidy bedroom, looking abrupt and weird, as if an animal's growth had suddenly grown on a person's head. horn.

The open wardrobe was exposed to the light, and there was nothing but a few clothes on top and three drawers on the bottom.Lin Yuan's gaze slowly fell on the bottom drawer. For some reason, that seemingly untouched drawer made his heart twitch inexplicably. It contained medicine, drug, but now, who is it? Whose medicine is it?Whose soul is lost?

He stared at the open cabinet door for a long time, then sat silently beside the bed.On the bedside table was the piece of slightly oily lyrics paper, on which were the sad words he was already familiar with, "Don't love me, don't give me excuses, don't make me weak, don't push me into a mirage..."

He gently stroked the smooth paper with his hands, as if he was stroking his lover's face.The last message that Fu Chong sent to himself reappeared in his mind, and he clearly remembered the last two words he said: Goodbye!

Lin Yuan closed his eyes in pain.

It seems that God has already predestined in the dark, and this is a night that many people cannot sleep peacefully.

When the plane drew a long arc, passed through the thick clouds, crossed the equator, and flew to another hemisphere, it seemed that all the passengers in the cabin had fallen asleep.There is only an oriental girl with long black hair and a graceful and thin face, her beautiful eyes are always open, and there is a dazed and somewhat hopeless look in her eyes.Occasionally, she would turn her head slightly to look at the sleeping young man beside her, and help him cover the slipped blanket. When her hand accidentally touched his body, even if it was just his coat, her hand still seemed to be touching his body. Like a stranger, he quietly moved away subconsciously.Outside the porthole, there is an ink-like night in the sky at an altitude of [-] meters.

Beijing's winter nights have never been stingy with exaggerating loneliness.

When the security guard in the community watched the elegant, gentle and polite beautiful woman come back from the car, she still had a tired and lonely expression on her face. She nodded slightly to him and her colleagues on duty, with a courtesy Apathy and alienation.He hurriedly greeted her with a smile on his face, "Miss Tong, you are coming back so late again!" The woman nodded, yes, even the security guards in the community knew that she was like a night walker and often came home after midnight, they I also know that like many women in Beijing, I live in a high-end house, drive a beautiful car, and have high-end cosmetics even armed to the toes, but I don't have a man who loves me.

Lin Yuan's handsome but extremely distant face appeared in front of her eyes, and that face gradually shrank in her pupils until it shrunk into a photo of her youth, with a similarly young self pasted side by side on the red on the certificate.It's just that the certificate... will expire soon.She poured half a glass of red wine, and the dark red swayed gently through the transparent goblet, just like her current mood.

After drinking you, can I... fall asleep.

Fu Chong woke up unexpectedly from a brief nightmare, and he found that his whole body was soaked.

He sat there in a daze for a long while, until the sweat was slowly dried by the temperature of his body unconsciously.He got out of bed slowly, and took out a pack of cigarettes from his briefcase. This was the first pack of cigarettes he bought after he quit smoking after graduating from college, and it was the brand Lin Yuan often smoked.He took a deep breath of the cigarette, as if he wanted to taste the smell that he often felt on that man's body.

He didn't forget the content of the dream after waking up like many times before.This time, the dream was short, and it seemed that he could remember it more clearly.He dreamed that he came to the deep and beautiful villa in Linyuan with some dignified people wearing civilian clothes but carrying weapons.At midnight, the lights in the villa are as bright as day, and all kinds of exquisite appliances and decorations are shining brightly under the lights.There were no figures or voices in the huge room, it was as silent as a deaf and speechless old man.

He saw himself becoming nervous and anxious in his dream, with uneasy emotions flashing in his eyes, and he ran upstairs in a panic.The studio upstairs seemed to be the same as before, he turned to leave, but suddenly found that the sketch drawn by Lin Yuan for himself was missing from the wall.

Next door is Lin Yuan's bedroom, he opened the door, but no one was there, the bathroom door was ajar, and there was a slight sound of dripping water.He slowed down and gently opened the door. In front of him was a picture that made him dizzy. For a moment, it seemed that someone had shifted the position of the oil painting.He saw Lin Yuan lying in the bathtub, staring straight at him with half-closed eyes, with a sharp knife stuck in his heart.

Fu Chong closed his eyes abruptly, letting the smoke that was about to burn burn his fingers.

A Biao glanced at Lin Yuan who seemed to be sleeping with his eyes closed in the back seat, and shook his head lightly. The accelerator under his feet was pushed hard, and the off-road vehicle drove quickly towards the provincial capital in the night.

In such a night, Lin Yuan certainly did not really fall asleep.

He received urgent news from the provincial side that the case of Pinggu has attracted a higher level of attention due to the special issues, and the scope and time involved in the case have become monolithic. In this way, he must be investigated, and the time is just around the corner. Within one or two days, judging from the depth of the above-mentioned case tracking, the risk of being involved and scrapped is self-evident.

On Jinshan's side, rumors have also reached his ears recently.It seemed that someone was spreading clouds and rain behind his back, secretly collecting his own materials, presumably he saw the right time, and jumped out when the big Pinggu case involved him, and let himself be attacked by the enemy.He had long heard that Huisheng, who was developed by Dongsheng, was holding back his energy and wanted to fight him. Normally, such a pawn on the chessboard who crossed the border for others would not be Lin Yuan's opponent, but now...he smiled wryly. After a while, but what kind of handle does Huisheng have in his hands?He has only been in Jinshan for a short time, and some of his interests are extremely secretive. He rejected the bribes offered by those developers in Hong Kong, just to prevent someone from having other plans behind his back. Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat for no reason. For some reason, he remembered the community where Fu Chong's new house was located, Fengqing Ya'an, which was also one of the real estate projects developed by Dongsheng.

Thinking of Fu Chong, his expression that had been sinking like water quietly melted a little.It's late at night, is he asleep?

The car drove into the villa area, Lin Yuan seemed to recall something happy, and even smiled slightly.

The two moved some of the things they had sorted out to the car, and Lin Yuan took a painting alone, which was Fu Chong's sketch.When he was about to go out, he seemed to think of something, turned around slowly, A Biao followed his gaze and looked over, it was the beautiful double sofa in the living room, he didn't know why Lin Yuan stared blankly at the sofa for a long time , because in Lin Yuan's slightly squinted eyes, there seemed to be a man who was drunk and fell asleep on the sofa, his posture and expression were just like the portrait in his hand.

Lin Yuan's car drove back to Jinshan City before dawn. After A Biao sent the mayor back to the hotel, he hurried away with some things that Lin Yuan gave him.

When it was time for Lin Yuan to go to work, everything seemed to be so normal. Ah Biao's car was waiting downstairs for the mayor who was hurrying downstairs after breakfast, as if the two people who entered and left Jinshan overnight had nothing to do with them at all.

Fu Chong didn't open the cell phone that he had turned off since last night until the work unit. For some reason, he suddenly felt that the small black lump was like the legendary Pandora's box, except that the box inside the legendary box It is full of all the evils in the world, but what is contained in this box that belongs only to him is his own... counterattack and betrayal.

The phone on the desk rang, "Fu Chong? Come to my office." The majestic and deep voice of Mayor Lin was on the other end of the receiver. Hang up the phone.

Fu Chong gently knocked on the door of the mayor's office. Standing outside the door of the mayor's office in this early morning when everything seemed to be peaceful, he was in a dizzy trance for a moment, as if everything in the past six months was nothing but I had a bizarre dream when I was dozing off in the office. After waking up from the dream, I realized that I was just the newcomer in the secretary department who just came to meet the mayor for the first time. Yana was still waiting for her to watch the latest movie after work. There is no New Year's Eve countdown in Hong Kong, and there is no countless times of madness between two men on the big hotel bed...

"Come in." It was the... voice that made him so unforgettable. Fu Chong closed his eyes. It turned out that everything was not a dream.

Lin Yuan stood quietly in front of the window smoking a cigarette, the red flag fluttering gently on the flagpole outside the window, very much like the morning when he first came to Jinshan.

He has just received two bad news. One is a call from the Pinggu special case team, formally interviewing him to go to the special case team to find out some information. He was very polite, but Lin Yuan read an inexplicable coldness behind that politeness.Another news came from the province. Someone from Jinshan reported his corruption and bribery with his real name. It is said that he listed a lot of evidence, including his almost unknown luxurious villa in the provincial capital.

There was a familiar knock on the door that only belonged to Fu Chong. He turned and returned to the desk. At this moment, he wanted to use this large desk to separate himself from him. For a while, he rushed forward and kissed his lips frantically.

So when Fu Chong pushed open the somewhat heavy door, what he saw was Mayor Lin, who was sitting behind a luxurious desk with a deep expression on his face. He raised his head and glanced at himself with slightly narrowed eyes. He glanced at the half-empty water glass next to him.

"Add some water? Mayor?" Lin Yuan nodded, watching Fu Chong step aside, slowly refilling the cup with hot water while controlling the temperature.He knew that the temperature must be lukewarm, just right, just like what he did when he formally came to his office for the first time, just like the countless times he did after that...

"The task force has interviewed me. I will go to the provincial capital for investigation in a while. Huisheng from Dongsheng Development also went to the province to report with his real name. It seems... he is holding something from me." Lin Yuan said flatly. Speaking to Fu Chong who was coming over with a water glass, it seemed that he was not talking about himself, but someone else.

The water glass in Fu Chong's hand shook slightly, and slowly placed it by Lin Yuan's hand.The man's hand didn't reach for the cup, but quickly grabbed his hand.

"Are you really...will you be happy?" Lin Yuan didn't hold his hand very hard, but just gently rubbed his fingers on his fingers, staring at the face of the boy whose complexion was gradually pale.

It turned out that they all understood.

Before waiting for his answer, Lin Yuan smiled self-deprecatingly and stood up.He gently embraced him, and the boy's body was a little stiff, as if he had returned to the way they first met.Lin Yuan seemed a little dissatisfied with his reaction, frowned his thick black eyebrows, and slowly pressed his lips against his.Those lips also seemed to have lost the heat they should have, and were as pale and cold as his face.

Don't do this, my love, my little Chong!If the road ahead is destined to be a thousand arrows piercing the heart, then I would rather die on your arrow!I don't care how sharp the cold arrow on the back is, because I know that its sharpness is also sharpened by the blood of your wound.My lover, my baby, you can only blame me for starting our love so cruelly and bleakly, and you can only blame me for the time that God gave us so quickly that we haven't really walked into each other's life...

There seemed to be a faint human voice coming from the corridor. Lin Yuan hugged Fu Chong's body tightly, leaned his face into his ear, and whispered something that only the two of them could understand clearly, "That account today I will deposit another 3000 million, how to do it, you can figure it out... If you want my life, I will give it to you, if you don’t want my money, I will give it to you too! Fu Chong, you give me a good life, Live like I said, remember, you used to be from my Lin Yuan!"

six months later.

Dong Jian, who was surfing the Internet at work during his lunch break, watched a piece of news that suddenly popped up on the website, and his two eyebrows almost knit together.

"**The website of the *Discipline Inspection Commission* Supervision Department* reported on *month* that, with the approval of the *Province *Commission: **Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection of the former deputy secretary of the ** Jinshan City *Commission and the former mayor of the city government Lin Yuan’s suspected serious violation of discipline has been investigated. After investigation, Lin Yuan used the convenience of his position to seek benefits for others, accepting bribes; in the process of performing his duties, he abused his power and accepted gifts. Lin Yuan’s above-mentioned behavior has constituted a serious violation of discipline and is suspected of breaking the law Crime. After deliberation by the *Standing* Committee of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and approval by the *Provincial *Commission, it was decided to expell Lin Yuan from the Party*; Proceeds from violations of discipline; transfer the suspected criminal issues and clues to judicial organs for handling according to law."

Dong Jian looked around, he was the only one in the room, and he dialed Fu Chong's cell phone.

"Brother Chong, it's me. How are you getting ready? Is the date of departure fixed? Let me tell you, give me a chance these two days. If you don't have a drink with your brother before you go to Shenzhen, I will I'll go to Shenzhen and find you for a drink." While chatting with Fu Chong, he used the mouse to scroll back and forth on the news about Lin Yuan.

"Then let's do it today. Tomorrow I will send my parents back to the countryside, and then I plan to set off when I get back." Fu Chong on the other end of the phone still had a calm tone.

"Brother Chong, are you...are you online? The news about Mayor Lin just came out..." Dong Jian asked tentatively.

"I know, last night... I knew." Fu Chong's voice dropped.

"The website has just been released! Why did you just..." Dong Jian swallowed his words back, yes, caring about a person, thinking about a person, you can always find various ways to get out.

"Let's talk about it when we meet at night. You know, I don't like to move around very much after I resigned. You can come to my house at night and call me." Fu Chong hung up the phone, and looked back to the news on the computer that was the same as Dong Jian superior.

He carefully interpreted the problems on Lin Yuan word by word. Fu Chong knew that the man quickly digested a lot of things that were not good for him with his rich political experience before the accident. Pinggu's seeking benefits for others was the main cause of his accident. However, the evidence he handed to Huisheng was not much. Although it constituted accepting bribes, for Lin Yuan, the biggest key to his death was the huge shareholder card in his hand.

In the days when Lin Yuan just had an accident, every night when he couldn't sleep, Fu Chong would think about it over and over again.That man, that man who knew what he was doing, why would he put almost life and death bets on someone who sneaked up on him from behind?

He thought over and over again, day and night, not because he couldn't figure it out, not because he couldn't understand his intentions, but he just used this constant and endless thinking to tell himself, because Lin Yuan believed that he was treating him Between love and hate, love must be greater than hate.

is it?

After Lin Yuan was shuanggui, the relevant personnel around him more or less accepted some auxiliary investigations. Both Fu Chong and Chen Biao were approached by the special case team to inquire about some situations. I don't know anything else.

Three months later, A Biao, who was not formally organized, quietly left Jinshan.Five months later, Fu Chong resigned from public office and was going south to Shenzhen to find another possibility in his life.
