Fawn

The servant cleared out a big room at the end of the corridor on the second floor, which is supposed to be Xiaolu's bedroom for a few days.The size of this bedroom is larger than the three rooms he had in the county.The big bed was covered with spring mattresses, and the silk sheets were printed with brocade patterns.The several pieces of furniture placed against the wall are all made of mahogany. The door of the cabinet is opened, and several sets of brand-new silk pajamas are stacked on the top shelf, and the fawn's suitcase is on the bottom shelf.

Fawn hung his coat and top hat on the coat rack behind the door, went to the bed by himself, sat down and shook himself.I have never slept on the spring bed, I didn't expect it to be so soft.This reminded him of He Ruolong, such a big and nice bed should be shared with He Ruolong.

Closing his eyes and raising his head, he moved his nostrils and took a deep breath, trying to capture the familiar particles from the air and piece together the smell of He Ruolong.

Then he opened his eyes and lowered his head, without warning, his face darkened.

Xiaolu was wondering which bastard was going to tell Cheng Tingli his secrets—actually, it shouldn’t be called a whistleblower, he is an adult, he has the right to choose who to befriend and who to sleep with.

But he couldn't choose, because he was born as a member of the Cheng family and died as a ghost of the Cheng family.This is not something he wants to do. Cheng Tingli is like a sea god. Even if he has struggled to get out of the water and landed on the shore, even if he has run far away with all his might, as long as Cheng Tingli wants to, he can shoot big waves at any time. He rolls back into the sea.

He is always suffocated, always drowned, because he has no strength.He didn't, but Cheng Tingli did.

There is no power, so there is no freedom.Cheng Tingli was confronting him, if he moved, Cheng Tingli would follow him immediately.This is a soft, quiet occupation, but he only realized it today.

Elbows resting on knees, Fawn bent down and cupped his face in both hands.The long eyelashes brushed against his fingers, and he let out a breath, determined to find a way to save himself and others.

Fawn's mind is heavy, but the surface is as usual, and there is no worry on his face.Cheng Shiteng came back in the evening, and the family of three father and son had dinner together.

Cheng Shiteng seemed to have messed up some errand, so that Cheng Tingli complained while eating.Xiaolu ate and ate vegetables without saying a word, suspecting that the bastard who informed was Cheng Shiteng—that morning, he and He Ruolong had a head-to-head encounter, and after entering the room, he beat himself up several times with words.

Cheng Tingli spoke slowly, talking endlessly, and then Cheng Shiteng became a little impatient, and began to complain impatiently: "Your eyes are too ruthless, can that be prevented? Luo Mei Although Gentleman's army was beaten by the Japanese, his lifeline is still alive!"

Cheng Tingli asked, "What lifeline?"

Cheng Shiteng replied: "It's his business. Don't look down on him. As long as the business continues, his team will not be disbanded-such an important lifeline, and it has been connected for more than ten years. How can we cut it off? Can it be cut off? Besides, all his smoked soil was obtained from Rehe, and the market for border soil is bullish now, and the Persian red soil you obtained cannot compare with others!"

Cheng Tingli resolutely said: "His frontier soil is not allowed to enter the province!"

Cheng Shiteng smacked his lips: "Well, your old man really said it lightly, as if we allowed him to enter."

Cheng Tingli put down his chopsticks and pointed at him: "You bastard, you only know how to play, and you never take business seriously!"

Cheng Shiteng smiled, and said to Xiaolu: "See if you don't, it's unreasonable."

Listening to the two of them talking, Xiao Lu was not like his father and his son was not like his son, he was not easy to agree with, especially since he was too lazy to pay attention to Cheng Shiteng, so he only snorted lowly.

After dinner, Xiao Lu went back to his room to rest for a while, it was too early to go to bed, and it was too late to go out for a stroll.Lying on his back on the big bed for a while, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that the room opposite the bedroom was where Cheng Tingli played billiards.At the moment, the room was quiet, apparently no one was there.If others don't go, just go by yourself!

Xiaolu put on his leather shoes and fastened the laces, then took off his suit jacket and hung it up, leaving only his shirt and vest.After opening the door and entering the corridor, he looked around and saw no one, so he raised his hand and gently pushed the opposite door.

The door of the room opened, and a dim light that seemed to exist and not exist spilled out.He took a step inside, and saw that the room was still the same as when he came last time—the curtains were drooping, and the surroundings were as dark as a hole, except for the electric light hanging in the center, which only illuminated a pool table below.The tabletop is a bit messy, except for the billiard balls here and there, there are cue sticks here and there.

Xiaolu saw others playing billiards in Japan, but he had never touched a cue.At this time, he quietly closed the door, walked quickly to the table, first picked up a cue and weighed it.

There are old and new clubs, and he picked the most satisfactory one, then gathered the rest of the clubs, and put them neatly on the ground aside.

He didn't understand the rules of billiards at all. He just lay on the case and tried to poke the colorful balls with the cue.After playing like this for a few minutes, he put the cue in his hand on the ground in a disinterested manner, while he sat on the table, grabbed the billiard ball and rolled it forward like a large pinball.

One ball collided with the other with a crisp sound, or nothing collided and fell into the net bag with a grunt; under the light, they were all radiant.The little deer was happy to play, jumped down and ran around the table, and took out the billiard balls that fell into the net bag one by one.Then he jumped up and sat on the table again, and continued to roll the ball sideways.Rolling and rolling, his arms were not long enough, so he simply knelt on the table on all fours.

Suddenly, with a "click", a billiard ball bounced and fell to the ground.He turned over and slid down, bent over and ran after the billiard ball.The floor was hard and smooth, and the billiard ball rolled into the distance.The little deer chased forward without hesitation, until he reached the extremely dark and dark place, as if instinctively, he stopped abruptly.

There was an inaudible breathing sound in front of him, and a hand reached out to him from the darkness, holding the billiard ball in his hand.

The blue billiard ball, brand new and bright, is heavy and cold, reflecting the dim light.Behind the billiards, there are still light spots shaking, which are Cheng Shiteng's diamond cufflinks and tie clips.

Xiaolu couldn't see his face clearly, but he could feel his hard gaze.There is nothing more to say to this person, and one more word is a tedious entanglement.As soon as he snatched the billiard ball, he stood up and turned around to run. The sound of his footsteps was as heavy as a series of rolling mines. He opened the door and rushed out without looking back.

Cheng Shiteng sat on the floor against the wall, neither spoke nor chased.
