Retreat

Li Tang found it hard to believe Bai Xiaoqi's words, not because he wanted to doubt, but because he had been with Hong Xiangfeng for many years and was familiar with Hong Xiangfeng's personality.

It is true that Hong Xiangfeng has lived a ridiculous life in the past two years, but the Hong Xiangfeng that Li Tang is familiar with, although he can't be said to be calm and self-restraining, he still has a sense of propriety. For a woman, if he is careless, his reputation will be ruined. , Hong Xiangfeng would not do this kind of thing.Otherwise, there would be no Emperor Hong today.

Li Tang just thought that Bai Xiaoqi had no reason to lie to him, and what happened, Li Tang didn't dare to make a conclusion until Hong Xiangfeng personally confirmed it.

Li Tang called Hong Xiangfeng, "Where are you godfather, I have something to see you."

Perhaps it was because of Li Tang's serious tone, Hong Xiangfeng didn't talk nonsense, and simply said, "Come to my house."

When Li Tang arrived at Hong's house, it was already dark. There was no one in the living room on the first floor, and the lights were off. Sister Hua was probably watching TV in her room.Hong Xiangfeng asked him to go to the study on the second floor.

When Li Tang knocked on the door and entered, Hong Xiangfeng was smoking a cigarette with a fairly calm expression, so he asked Li Tang to come and sit down.

Li Tang didn't ask questions first, but Hong Xiangfeng said bluntly: "I put Bai Xiaoqi to sleep, don't mess with her anymore."

黎唐觉得有些荒谬，他突然心想自己要是真的爱白小琦的话，这个时候就该站起来揍面前这个男人一顿，然后采用一切能够狠狠报复他的手段。But he didn't. At this time, he still thought that this was his godfather, and he could still talk to him calmly, asking him: "You know the relationship between Bai Xiaoqi and me, and you do that kind of thing to her?" ?”

At that moment, Hong Xiangfeng's expression changed, Li Tang could see that he avoided his eyes, and then said: "She seduced me, I just want to see how cheap this woman is, and let you see clearly. "

Li Tang said calmly, "You raped her."

Hong Xiangfeng stood up suddenly, put his hands on the table, "Rape her? Do I need to rape her? She sent me to the room, helped me take off my shoes, and touched her. I grabbed her hand because I wanted to see her Reaction, she didn't say anything and didn't resist, she said I raped her?"

Seeing Hong Xiangfeng gasping for breath, Li Tang blushed a little, obviously very angry, "Li Tang, I told you not to associate with this woman a long time ago, I think she is out of her mind at all, or she has ulterior motives!"

Li Tang clasped his hands and closed his eyes.

Hong Xiangfeng sat down, gradually calmed down, and asked, "She told you that I raped her."

Li Tang hesitated for a moment, but did not speak.

Hong Xiangfeng said: "Li Tang, there is something wrong with this woman. Don't let her provoke the relationship between our father and son for more than [-] years."

Li Tang looked directly at Hong Xiangfeng, "Godfather, Bai Xiaoqi promised me that he would not call the police, give me some time, and let me handle this matter."

Hong Xiangfeng asked him, "You still doubt me?"

Li Tang just said: "Godfather, give me some time."

Before leaving, Li Tang told Hong Xiangfeng about the car accident today. Hong Xiangfeng was taken aback and blamed Li Tang for not telling him earlier, so he hurriedly called Hong Minhang.

Li Tang left silently alone.

After leaving Hong's house, Li Tang called Bai Xiaoqi, but Bai Xiaoqi never answered.

Li Tang was suddenly worried, so he had to rush back to Bai Xiaoqi's house, Bai Xiaoqi's mood was very unstable, Li Tang warmed her a glass of milk, and then guarded her until she fell asleep.

After Bai Xiaoqi fell asleep, Li Tang went to the balcony to smoke a cigarette all night until the sky turned white.

Li Tang advised Bai Xiaoqi not to go to work for the time being, and to rest for a while.

Although Bai Xiaoqi has worked in this job for two or three years, it is not easy to get to the current position, but it is not too difficult to find a new job after gaining experience, so she simply quit her job.

Bai Xiaoqi asked Li Tang how to deal with Hong Xiangfeng, Li Tang told her to let her trust him, he would definitely not let Hong Xiangfeng go, but it just took time.

Bai Xiaoqi agreed.

In this way, Li Tang felt Bai Xiaoqi's attitude was even more strange, and became suspicious in his heart.

Hong Minhang was discharged from the hospital the next day and returned to Chongfeng City. He met Hong Xiangfeng first. When Hong Xiangfeng heard that they were being followed on the highway and almost caused their car to overturn, he immediately asked someone to go down and investigate. He must find out who it was. made.

As for the matter of Bai Xiaoqi, Hong Xiangfeng and Li Tang kept silent at the same time. Hong Minhang had never heard of it. He only knew that Li Tang left him alone in the hospital. Bai Xiaoqi called.Hong Minhang was a little sad, and even began to suspect that no matter what he did, there was no way to shake Li Tang's heart.

Li Tang asked someone privately about what happened in the restaurant that day, except for Xiao Wei, the driver who helped Hong Xiangfeng to the lounge at that time, no one else knew about it, and even Xiao Wei didn't know what happened after he left.So it was originally a one-on-one testimony between Hong Xiangfeng and Bai Xiaoqi, and one of them must be lying.

Li Tang didn't call Di Hong, and Hong Xiangfeng didn't pursue him, but Hong Minhang couldn't bear it after all, and called Li Tang, with a business-like attitude: "Why don't you come to work?"

Unexpectedly, Li Tang said: "Min Hang, come out with me for a drink or two."

Hong Minhang was startled for a moment, but did not refuse, and said, "Okay."

Li Tang didn't ask Hong Minhang to go out to the bar, but bought a case of beer and some dishes, and asked Hong Minhang to go to his house to accompany him.The two of them sat on the balcony and drank one sip. Li Tang said that he could drink with peace of mind, and he didn't have to worry about getting drunk and not being able to go home.

Hong Minhang asked, "What happened?"

Li Tang propped his head on one hand, and slowly recounted what Bai Xiaoqi called him that day.

Hong Minhang frowned involuntarily.

Li Tang then told Hong Minhang what Hong Xiangfeng said to him, and asked, "Who do you think I should trust?"

Hong Minhang asked him, "Who do you want to believe?"

Li Tang was silent for a while, "How could I be willing to believe Bai Xiaoqi, my godfather raped my girlfriend? This person Li Tang will probably become a joke in Chongfeng City."

Hong Minhang stood up suddenly, walked to Li Tang, bowed down and hugged his head in his arms, "Why do you think you are a joke, do you know how much someone likes you, and wants to die for you, Why can't you see it."

Li Tang remained motionless, letting Hong Minhang hold him.

Hong Minhang reached out his hand to push back the hair on Li Tang's forehead, lowered his head, and kissed his lips lightly. Seeing that Li Tang didn't resist, he kissed him again, deepening the kiss.

Li Tang knew that this kiss was different, it was something he couldn't experience when he was with Bai Xiaoqi, the place where his heart was located on his chest was throbbing because of it, his fingers even curled up because of the strong emotion.

Probably not only Hong Minhang is in love with him, he is also in love with Hong Minhang, although Li Tang has always felt that it is impossible to distinguish whether the emotion is between lovers or between brothers, but he understands very well, To him, Hong Minhang was different from anyone else.

After the kiss was over, both of them gasped slightly, Li Tang reached out to pick up the beer beside him, took a few sips for himself, and then let out a long breath.

Hong Minhang sat down next to Li Tang, seeing that he didn't want to say anything more, so he stopped mentioning it and took a beer bottle to drink with him.

Later, both of them were drunk, and Li Tang didn't remember what happened. When he woke up in the morning, he was in bed, and Hong Minhang had already left.

Bai Xiaoqi told Li Tang that she wanted to go back to her hometown. Li Tang offered to go back with her, but she refused. She said she would go back with a sister from her hometown, so Li Tang told her to be careful all the way and call him if something happened. .

After Bai Xiaoqi left, Hong Xiangfeng asked Li Tang to see him, and when Li Tang arrived, he found that Hong Minhang was also at home.

Hong Xiangfeng said: "The person who attacked you last time has some clues. Li Tang, do you still remember Du Xiaobiao?"

Li Tang was silent for a while, and asked, "Crazy Du?"

"Yes," Hong Xiangfeng said, "Du Xiaobiao is out of prison, it seems that the first thing he does is to find you."

Li Tang raised his hand and wiped his face, "It's aimed at me, and it hurts Min Hang."

Hong Minhang suddenly asked: "Does this Du Xiaobiao have a grudge against Brother Li or our Hong family?"

"There are all of them," Hong Xiangfeng told him, "so be careful, that person is a lunatic, if there is one time, there will be another time."

After Hong Xiangfeng finished speaking, Hong Minhang stood up and walked out, but Li Tang stayed behind.

Hong Xiangfeng looked at him, "You still don't believe me about Bai Xiaoqi?"

"It's not Bai Xiaoqi," Li Tang said, "It's Min Hang. You also said that Du Xiaobiao will definitely have a next time. Find someone to follow Min Hang to protect him. I don't want anything to happen to him."

Hong Xiangfeng nodded, "Of course I will consider this, Li Tang, listen to your godfather, don't have anything to do with that woman Bai Xiaoqi, let me deal with her."

Li Tang was noncommittal, "Give me some time, I will handle it."

After Li Tang came out, he saw Hong Minhang waiting for him downstairs, and the two of them walked out slowly.

"Bai Xiaoqi," Hong Minhang said, "Actually, you have already thought about it, right? Even if my dad didn't force her, but touching her so easily, would you think it can be forgiven?"

Li Tang asked suddenly: "What would happen to you?"

Hong Minhang stopped in his tracks and replied in a serious tone: "Do you think my dad touched the person I love? I will kill him."

Li Tang frowned slightly.

Hong Minhang then continued: "Actually, you don't like that woman at all."

Li Tang shook his head, "I once seriously thought about being with her, maybe God doesn't like me."

Hong Minhang said: "God just wants you to choose a suitable one."

Li Tang smiled, unwilling to continue this topic with him, took his leave and left. Before leaving, he repeatedly told Hong Minhang to be careful.

Even though they knew that Du Xiaobiao, a lunatic, was probably behind the scenes, Li Tang and the others still had nothing to do with him. Du Xiaobiao hibernated and never appeared after that, except to be more vigilant.

What Li Tang was most worried about was Hong Minhang. He was very familiar with Du Xiaobiao. Compared with him, Hong Minhang, who looked a bit gentle and returned from overseas, was more in line with Du Xiaobiao's target.

Less than a week later, Bai Xiaoqi came back, but she didn't appear alone, she came back from her hometown with her, and her cousin.

The first thing Bai Xiaoqi and her cousin did when they returned to Chongfeng was to meet Li Tang.

Li Tang hurried to the restaurant at the agreed place, before he could ask Bai Xiaoqi if she was okay, tea was splashed on her face by her cousin.

The man pointed at Li Tang's face and scolded: "Are you still a man? You let your girlfriend suffer this kind of grievance?"

Many people looked over, and Bai Xiaoqi hurriedly stopped him.

The man pulled Bai Xiaoqi away, "You're still helping him, are you blind? He's just trying to put you off, how could he be willing to turn against his rich godfather for you! He's just thinking about how to dump you now! "

Bai Xiaoqi cried and covered her ears, "He is not this kind of person!"

Seeing that Bai Xiaoqi was crying sadly, Li Tang persuaded them that it is inappropriate to speak here, and they should speak in another place.Li Tang didn't get angry because of being splashed with tea, and his attitude was pretty good, that's why Bai Xiaoqi's cousin was cursing and willing to leave with them.

Along the way, that man was berating Li Tang for being useless and worthless, saying that if it were him, he would have killed Hong Xiangfeng.

Li Tang looked at him from the rearview mirror, not because his provocative intentions were too obvious, but because this man was clean and white, he didn't look like a farmer from the countryside at all, and he didn't even speak with a local accent.Li Tang was already suspicious of Bai Xiaoqi, but he was even more curious about this man's sudden appearance. What exactly do they want, money?Or let Hong Xiangfeng die?Or do you want to let yourself die?

Bai Xiaoqi's cousin is surnamed Zhang, named Zhang Hao, who has no place to live in Chongfeng City, Li Tang sent him to Bai Xiaoqi's house.Before Li Tang left, he pointed at Li Tang again and said, "If you don't kill Hong Xiangfeng, I'll go, and then don't stop me!"

Li Tang said: "Okay, I won't stop you."

No one thought that one night after that, when Hong Xiangfeng was drinking in a bar outside and went to the bathroom, he was really almost stabbed.At that time, the man just scratched Hong Xiangfeng's back and bled a little, but it was not serious, so the man ran away immediately without being able to catch anyone.But Hong Xiangfeng was terrified. The more money he had these years, the more comfortable his life was. He had long since lost the aura of daring to risk his life back then. He cherished his life more than anyone else.

Hong Xiangfeng lay in bed for a few days, but rumors spread everywhere.

The two Hong Xiangjun brothers came to visit him and told him: "Now it is rumored that you played with Li Tang's woman, and he secretly said to kill you."

Hong Xiangfeng scolded on the spot: "Fart! Li Tang is my son, he can't do such a thing!"

However, after scolding Hong Xiangjun and Hong Xiangguo away, Hong Xiangfeng began to panic again. He felt that those rumors were not unreasonable. Li Tang was indeed still suspicious of him, and the biting dog didn't bark. Li Tang has been so quiet for so long. On the surface, it seems that they don't want to pursue Bai Xiaoqi's matter, but secretly they don't know what they are planning.

He is also a man, and he compares his heart with his heart. A man would not swallow such a thing and let it go.

The people around him are the most untrustworthy. He has been stabbed by that woman Yue Min before, so he has to learn a lesson.

So Hong Xiangfeng was worried after much deliberation, and asked someone to get a gun and put it under his pillow. At the same time, he also invited a few people back to Hong's house to protect him from top to bottom.

When Li Tang came to see Hong Xiangfeng, Hong Xiangfeng subconsciously reached out to touch the gun under the pillow, and the bodyguard standing at the door also guarded him and did not go out.

Li Tang asked Hong Xiangfeng, did he see who it was?

Hong Xiangfeng said he didn't know.

Li Tang said: "Could it be Du Xiaobiao?"

Hong Xiangfeng pondered for a moment. Now no matter who others say, he thinks it is possible. Even if it is Hong Minhang and Hong Xiangjun brothers, he can't help but wonder if he wants him to die early so that Di Hong can be divided up.

Li Tang saw the people guarding up and down since he came in, so he could only persuade: "Godfather, take care of your wounds, don't be too nervous."

Hong Xiangfeng looked at Li Tang thoughtfully, wondering if he was implying something to himself.

Li Tang didn't know his thoughts at this time, so he tried to persuade him a few words and saw that he was still a little nervous, so he got up and left.

As for those rumors, Li Tang was used to being alone these days, and the only person who could tell him was supposed to be Hong Minhang, but Hong Minhang didn't say a word about it.

Hong Xiangfeng had been raised at home for a few days, and his injury had almost healed. Seeing that it would be his 55th birthday in a few days, several groups of people came to ask him what he planned for his birthday.

Hong Xiangfeng was also hesitant. He really felt uncomfortable after lying down for a long time, and wanted to have a good time, but when he went outside, he was afraid of accidents, so he never made a decision.

Later, it was Li Tang who said that it is better to do it at home.

After hearing this, Hong Xiangfeng thought it was advisable. With so many bodyguards at home watching, they could also prevent outsiders from coming in and out. It was the safest thing to think about.It's just that he had to guard against Li Tang, he refused to hand over this matter to Li Tang, but to Hong Minhang, and at the same time, he had someone keep an eye on Li Tang in private that day.

On Hong Xiangfeng's birthday, all his brothers came over to celebrate his birthday, and Hong Xiangjun even found some young and beautiful female models for him.At first, Hong Xiangfeng blamed Hong Xiangjun for his meddling, fearing that there would be too many idlers. Later, a female model sat on his lap and fed him a drink, which made him happy, and he became indulgent.

By this time, Li Tang had already sensed Hong Xiangfeng's guard against him, and silently lit a cigarette in the corner by himself.

Before dinner, Li Tang received a call from Bai Xiaoqi, saying that he needed to see him urgently.

Li Tang hesitated, and told Hong Xiangfeng that he would leave for a while.

At this time, Hong Xiangfeng wished Li Tang would not be there, so he waved him away.

Not long after Li Tang left, Hong Minhang also received a call from Bai Xiaoqi. Bai Xiaoqi said in a very anxious tone that Li Tang was injured by her cousin, and asked Hong Minhang to help her take Li Tang to the hospital.

Hong Minhang said anxiously to the phone: "Okay, I'll come right away." Then he told Hong Xiangfeng that something happened to Li Tang, and he wanted to go over immediately to have a look.

Hong Xiangfeng was on guard, and said, "What's the matter? You call Li Tang, and I'll ask him."

Hong Minhang called Li Tang, but no one answered.

Hong Minhang became even more anxious and must go.

Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Hong Xiangfeng asked him to bring two more people to follow and be more careful.

"I see." After Hong Minhang finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
