Retreat

When Li Tang drove Hong Xiangfeng and Hong Minhang home, Sister Hua had already fallen asleep.

Together with Hong Minhang, Li Tang helped Hong Xiangfeng to the upstairs room.Hong Xiangfeng seemed to have died of drunkenness, his legs could barely use his strength, and it was difficult for the two of them to support him.

Putting Hong Xiangfeng on the bed, Hong Minhang supported him to lie on his side, while Li Tang helped him take off his shoes, and then covered him with the quilt.

Hong Minhang exhaled softly, and said to Li Tang: "It's so late, let's sleep here."

Li Tang shook his head, "No need, it won't take long to drive back."

Hong Minhang stood face to face with him, and said: "It's fine, it's easier to go back to sleep, then I won't keep you, be careful on the way."

"Okay," Li Tang said, and he and Hong Minhang came out of Hong Xiangfeng's room, closed the door gently, and walked towards the stairs.

Hong Minhang remained silent behind him, he seemed to be standing still, but Li Tang didn't turn his head, and didn't know if he was looking at him.

When Li Tang drove home, it was already past 1:[-] in the morning. He still lived in the old house and never thought of moving.He drank too much wine at night and felt thirsty now. Li Tang took out a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, sat on the sofa and drank a few sips, then put the mineral water bottle on the table, leaned back on the sofa and closed it. eyes, fell asleep.

Li Tang didn't wake up until dawn, he didn't bother to take a bath, so he went back to bed and continued to sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, Li Tang checked his phone and saw Hong Xiangfeng's missed call, so he called him back.

Hong Xiangfeng told Li Tang not to go to work for a few days, and to accompany Hong Minhang to go shopping and play around.

Li Tang rubbed his forehead and said yes, after hanging up the phone, he got up from the bed, put on his slippers and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

In life, Li Tang is actually a very lazy man, he doesn't like to change, the leather of the ten-year-old sofa in the house is worn out, and he has never thought about changing it, even the TV is the same as before. Suddenly it couldn't turn on the machine, Li Tang remembered to bring a new one back from outside.

If Hong Minhang is willing to visit Li Tang's house, he will find that the soap boxes in the bathroom are still the ones he bought from the small supermarket downstairs.

After taking a shower, Li Tang went to make breakfast for himself.This can probably be regarded as Li Tang's only hobby. He likes to make food for people to eat. His cooking skills are very good. Hong Minhang used to like to eat Li Tang's stir-fried dishes.It's a pity that after Hong Minhang stopped sticking to him, he could only make it for himself.

Li Tang cooked a bowl of fried egg noodles, went back to the living room and turned on the TV series, ate noodles while watching the news, cleaned up the room before going out.

When he drove to Hong's house, Hong Xiangfeng had already gone out. Hong Minhang greeted Li Tang from the window on the second floor and said, "Brother Li, wait for me for 2 minutes."

So Li Tang didn't enter the house, and just leaned against his car downstairs to smoke.

Soon, Hong Minhang came down from upstairs, dressed in casual attire, still wearing the glasses, looking like a gentle young master.

"Sorry to keep you waiting," Hong Minhang said.

Li Tang threw the cigarette butt away, "What's the matter with you, don't be polite to me, just tell me where you want to go and what you want to eat, and I'll take you there."

Hong Minhang got into the car with a smile, fastened his seat belt and said, "I'm going to apply for a driver's license test tomorrow, and I may have to bother you before I get the driver's license."

Li Tang said: "No trouble, I just happened to be lazy and rest for a few days."

On the second day after returning home, Hong Minhang planned to visit his middle school teacher.He lived in the school for three years in high school, and the head teacher cared about him very much.At the weekend, all the other children were picked up by their parents, and only Hong Minhang stayed in the school alone. The teacher helped him arrange some work in the student union, or helped him connect with opportunities to go out to work, and tried his best to make him feel comfortable. less alone.

Even now, Hong Minhang is still very grateful to that teacher. Before he returned to China, he bought some gifts specially and planned to visit her when he came back.

The teacher lived in an old residential area in the city center, and it was not easy to park in the area, so Li Tang could only park the car on the side of the road outside, and then said to Hong Minhang, "I'll wait for you here."

Hong Minhang nodded and got out of the car by himself.

There is an open space in front of the gate of the community, where several children are playing football. Four and five-year-olds are chasing a ball and running around. Parents stand by and watch them play.

Li Tang also stood aside, watching a child accidentally fall down, his mother rushed forward and picked him up.He started crying, and his mother gently patted him on the back and called him by his nickname, telling him to be brave.

Li Tang smiled slightly.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Hong Minhang came out of the community and said to Li Tang, "Okay, let's go."

Li Tang asked him: "Any other plans?"

Hong Minhang thought for a while, "It's fine for now, if you have something to do, Brother Li, you can go back first."

Li Tang smiled and said, "What's my job? My job is to be your driver. I will accompany you wherever you want to go."

Hong Minhang said: "Then let's go shopping, I haven't been back for several years, and I don't know what it's like here."

Li Tang nodded, "Get in the car."

During the whole day, Li Tang drove around the city with Hong Minhang, found a place to eat at noon, and sat in a cafe for a while in the afternoon.Hong Minhang asked about Dihong's current situation, and Li Tang told him in detail, and then told him that after he rested for a few days, Hong Xiangfeng would almost call him back to Dihong to start working.

Hong Minhang nodded and said no problem.

When the two of them went home in the evening, Hong Xiangfeng had already returned and left Li Tang to have dinner together.

Hong Xiangfeng said to Li Tang: "Let's get ready and give Min Hang a chance."

There has been no news of Hong Minhang since he left. Before he entered Dihong, Hong Xiangfeng probably wanted to introduce him to the people below, especially the newcomers who came in in the past two years.

Li Tang asked Hong Xiangfeng: "What should I do?"

According to Hong Xiangfeng's preferences, everyone should sit around a few tables together, drink and eat food, but Li Tang is not sure whether Hong Xiangfeng will want to follow Hong Minhang's habit.

Hong Xiangfeng hesitated for a moment, "We still have to eat. After the meal, you can arrange it yourself. If you want to go to the bar or something, go by yourself, and play however you like."

Li Tang nodded, "Okay, I'll make arrangements."

Hong Minhang's welcome banquet went smoothly.

The current Hong Minhang is different from the past. He used to hate socializing the most, but now he can deal with the banquet very politely and thoughtfully, and he is unambiguous when drinking.

After dinner, Hong Xiangfeng said that all the young people should accompany Hong Minhang to the bar.

Li Tang went to the front desk to pay the bill alone.As he approached, he saw a woman in uniform standing there wiping tears.Hong Xiangfeng often comes to this restaurant, and Li Tang is also familiar with it, knowing that the woman is the head waiter of the restaurant, named Bai Xiaoqi.So he approached and took out a tissue from his body and handed it over, "What's wrong?"

Bai Xiaoqi was taken aback, wiped away her tears, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm fine. Is Mr. Li paying the bill?"

Li Tang said: "Yes."

Bai Xiaoqi said: "Wait a moment." Then he urged the cashier to pay Li Tang immediately.

While waiting, Li Tang took out a cigarette from his pocket.

Bai Xiaoqi quickly reached out for the lighter to help him light the cigarette.

Li Tang nodded and said, "Thank you."

Bai Xiaoqi's eye makeup was a bit blurry, but she smiled unconsciously and said, "Mr. Li, you are welcome, you are welcome to come often."

Li Tang pointed to her eyes, "It's flowery."

Bai Xiaoqi let out an "ah" in surprise, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry first." Then she turned around and left in a hurry.

At this time, Li Tang turned his head and suddenly saw Hong Minhang standing not far away looking at them.

Seeing that Li Tang saw him, Hong Minhang walked over with a smile and asked, "Are you ready? I'll wait for you to go to Bay Street together."

Li Tang said: "It will be ready soon."

In the bar at night, Hong Minhang was given some alcohol, he drank a lot during the meal, but now he said he couldn't do it, leaned his head on Li Tang's shoulder, and said: "My brother will help me drink. "

When Hong Minhang was speaking, the scorching smell of alcohol hit the side of Li Tang's neck. Li Tang felt itchy, moved his neck, then picked up the wine and said, "Who wants to drink? I'll help my brother drink!"

"Why is this?" Suddenly a group of people complained.

"Who can drink better than Brother Li? Isn't this a joke?"

Li Tang waved his hand, "If you can't win by drinking, get out of the way."

Hong Minhang laughed lightly.

Li Tang's words aroused the anger of the crowd, no matter whether they won the fight or not, they always had to drink a few cups with him to vent their anger, everyone turned towards Li Tang and started a wheel battle.

Later, Li Tang's face remained unchanged, but Hong Minhang could clearly see that his eyes were a little straightened.So Hong Minhang stood up and stopped everyone, saying that it was too late and it was time to leave.

Hong Minhang is not like Li Tang, everyone is familiar with Li Tang, but Hong Minhang, the prince who descended from the sky, still can't figure out his temper, so it's not easy to pester him after hearing him say goodbye , They stood up one after another and said that they should leave.

Someone wanted to send Li Tang back, but Hong Minhang said no, just let him take him back.

So everyone stopped insisting and left in twos and threes.

Hong Minhang asked Li Tang: "Can you still go?"

Li Tang looked up at him, but didn't speak.

Hong Minhang helped him up and dragged him outside.Li Tang really drank too much, leaned his head on Hong Minhang's shoulder, seemed to be in a daze, and didn't say a word.

Hong Minhang took Li Tang to the car, helped him fasten his seat belt, then sat in the driver's seat and started the car.

Hong Minhang turned his head to look at Li Tang from time to time, and saw that he was not asleep, but kept silent, opened his eyes and looked out of the car window.

"Brother Li?" Hong Minhang called him.

Li Tang didn't respond, but raised his head with some discomfort, and then closed his eyes.

Hong Minhang drove the car home directly.

Sister Hua was still asleep, she helped him to get Li Tang out of the car, and said, "Why are you so drunk?"

Hong Minhang asked, "Where's my dad?"

Sister Hua said, "I haven't come back yet, maybe I won't come back."

Hong Xiangfeng often spent the night outside, and it was not uncommon for him not to come back.

Hong Minhang didn't say anything, and asked Sister Hua to help him help Li Tang to the guest room on the second floor.

Sister Hua said, "I'll go get a glass of water."

Hong Minhang nodded, "I'm sorry, Miss Hua."

He stayed in the room, helped Li Tang take off his shoes, and then unbuttoned some of his jacket.Li Tang moved his body and curled his legs up.

Hong Minhang sat down by the bed, squeezed Li Tang's jaw, and suddenly kissed him deeply.He kissed his lips, sucked and licked a little harder, exchanging and merging their saliva.

It wasn't until he heard Sister Hua's footsteps going upstairs that Hong Minhang let go of Li Tang, raised his head, and saw that his lips were red and swollen, and his breathing was short of breath.

Sister Hua pushed the door open and came in. Hong Minhang went over to take the water glass and said to her, "Sister Hua, go and rest, as long as I'm here."

Sister Hua was a little worried, "Do you want me to help you?"

Hong Minhang smiled and shook his head, "Go to bed early to avoid wrinkles."

Sister Hua said: "You child, I have a wrinkled face. Don't make fun of Sister Hua. Then I will go down first. Call me if you need something. If you are hungry, I will get up and cook for you."

Hong Minhang smiled and said, "Understood, good night."

After Sister Hua left, he closed the door and returned to Li Tang's bedside.

This time, Hong Minhang took off Li Tang's top and trousers, leaving only a short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of briefs underneath.

Li Tang slept restlessly all the time, moving his body restlessly.

Hong Minhang stroked his face gently, and kissed his lips again.

Because of the alcohol, the body temperature of both of them was very high, and Li Tang unconsciously began to cater to them.Hong Minhang's palm touched Li Tang's neck and side face, then slid down, touched his thin waist along the hem of his T-shirt, and then moved up to touch his flat chest.

Li Tang has been single for a long time, and his body can't stand such teasing, so he quickly reacted.

Hong Minhang's hand reached down, holding the organ that was moving between his legs, and gently rubbed and comforted it.

It wasn't until Li Tang vented in his hands that Hong Minhang stood up, went to the bathroom and got a towel to help him wipe his body, then walked out of the room and closed the door.

The next morning, Li Tang went downstairs rubbing his swollen forehead and saw Hong Minhang was already eating at the dining table.

Sister Hua greeted him warmly: "Xiao Li, come and have breakfast."

Li Tang nodded, "Thank you, Sister Hua." Then he walked to Hong Minhang and sat down.

Sister Hua scooped up a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Li Tang.

Li Tang picked up the chopsticks and asked Hong Minhang, "Did you bring me back last night?"

Hong Minhang smiled slightly and said, "Yeah, I can't remember anything after drinking so much."

Li Tang rubbed his forehead again, and asked, "You also helped me take off my clothes?"

Hong Minhang nodded, "I was afraid that your clothes would get wrinkled, so I took them off for you."

"Thank you," Li Tang said, and took a sip of the porridge before reaching for a pickle with chopsticks.

After the two of them finished their meal, Li Tang asked him: "What are your plans for today?"

Hong Minhang shook his head, "I'm not going anywhere today, you worked hard yesterday, go back and have a rest."

"That's good," Li Tang said, "Call me anytime if you need anything."

That day Li Tang went back to sleep again, and never received a call from Hong Minhang.The next day he called Hong Minhang, and Hong Minhang told him that he was going to meet a friend and that he didn't need to accompany him.After that, until Hong Minhang officially returned to Dihong, he never contacted him.

Li Tang was at home on vacation, and would go out for a walk alone when he had nothing to do, so it was a little unexpected, when he was eating alone at a fast food restaurant at noon, he met Bai Xiaoqi.

Bai Xiaoqi was also alone, Li Tang sat close and chatted with her, before leaving, Bai Xiaoqi asked Li Tang for her phone number.

Li Tang did not refuse.

Bai Xiaoqi said: "Brother Li, if you want to make a reservation in the future, you can call me directly."

Li Tang naturally agreed and thanked him.

After that, Li Tang didn't take this matter to heart, but soon Hong Minhang officially entered Dihong and started working.

Rather than saying that Li Tang led Hong Minhang, it is better to say that Li Tang followed Hong Minhang.Li Tang has no official position in Dihong, but Hong Minhang has assumed the position of deputy general manager as soon as he came in. In addition, Li Tang is by his side, and the person who makes decisions in Dihong is no longer Li Tang, but Hong Minhang.

At first, Hong Xiangfeng was worried that Hong Minhang would not be able to handle it, so he asked Li Tang to help him, but gradually Li Tang discovered that Hong Minhang was more decisive and powerful than himself in managing the company and doing business. , he gradually let Hong Minhang do what he wanted without interfering.

Li Tang suddenly became free and began to think about his own life.When he came out of his hometown in his teens, he had been following Hong Xiangfeng, saying that he was his godfather. He often felt that Hong Xiangfeng treated him better than his biological father who died early.Li Tang is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, he is most afraid of being in debt to others, Hong Xiangfeng treats him well and gives him money to spend on food, so he thinks that he will do well for Hong Xiangfeng to repay him.Even facing Hong Minhang, Li Tang himself didn't realize that he was treating the young master more like a loyal domestic servant. He wanted to take good care of Hong Minhang, watched him become more promising every day, and then took A gentle and gentle young lady has returned.

But one day, the young master told him that he liked him.

Li Tang could always feel Hong Minhang's attachment to him, why that attachment could turn into the kind of feeling that Hong Minhang said, Li Tang was still a little dazed.But he had to admit that he liked how Hong Minhang relied on him, and he also liked being nice to Hong Minhang and seeing Hong Minhang happy.So Li Tang didn't know whether the love between them was equal or not.

Hong Minhang, who came back from abroad, is mature and sensible. It seems that everything is developing according to Li Tang's hope, but Li Tang is not so happy, because the Hong Minhang who relied on him and liked him in the past disappeared.

Hong Minhang didn't know that although Li Tang had never contacted him in the past few years abroad, he had been inquiring about him, even if he could hear a few words when Hong Xiangfeng and Hong Minhang were talking on the phone, Li Tang would feel satisfied.

Li Tang is actually reluctant to develop the relationship with Hong Minhang to the present level. Of course he doesn't know, and Hong Minhang is even more reluctant.
