Rarely affectionate

Yuan Cheng didn't come back until late at night.

Lang Bai hadn't slept yet, sitting on the edge of the bed and reading a book by a faint yellow desk lamp.Yuan Cheng walked over and sat gently on the edge of the bed: "Why haven't you slept yet, are you afraid?"

Lang Bai put down the book and shook his head: "Brother just came here."

"What is he doing here?"

"..." Lang Bai was silent for a while, then sighed suddenly, and said, "Father, I think it's better to let Wang Jiadong go. When he wakes up, tell the Wang family to take him back. It's good if we meet again later." Be a human being. Besides, there is no real harm anyway..." He paused, showing a slight smile, "It's like being bitten or kicked by someone's expensive dog on the main road. Now, can you really kill a dog with a knife?"

Yuan Cheng stared at him for a long time, "You really think so?"

Lang Bai nodded.

"Yuan Xiao didn't exert pressure in front of you?"

"Brother is more mature than me."

Yuan Cheng took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled the smoke.Lang Bai has long adapted to his bad habit of smoking in the room, and he no longer even resists the smell of second-hand smoke—although Yuan Cheng doesn't usually do this often.

"Since you really think so, then deal with it according to your ideas." Yuan Cheng rubbed his hair, "It's late, go to bed early."

Lang Bai nodded, turned off the light, slipped under the quilt, and closed his eyes.

Yuan Cheng did not leave the room, he even maintained his original posture, sitting motionless on the edge of the bed.

The cigarette butt burned out little by little, and the dark red light spot gradually disappeared in the darkness.The room was pitch black, with only the moonlight shining faintly through the cracks in the curtains. Yuan Cheng's hard-lined side face was particularly dim and unclear in such shadows.

Lang Bai's breathing was uneven, and it sounded like he didn't sleep well.The earlier a person is intelligent, the easier it is to die young, just like the more beautiful a flower is when it is in full bloom, the faster it will wither.Sometimes you don't even have time to look at it carefully, you just remember how gorgeous and intimidating it used to be, but it died in a blink of an eye, leaving you without even a little fragrance.You can only keep the amazing concept in your mind, and you can't describe the specific appearance of that beauty at all.

Yuan Cheng casually threw the cigarette butt on the bedside table, stood up and walked out of the room.After a while he came back with an injection in his hand.

Lang Bai seemed startled by the sound of footsteps and turned over, but he still didn't wake up.Yuan Cheng grabbed his wrist, half knelt on the head of the bed, and gently injected the injection into the vein of his wrist.

The stinging pain was eliminated by the anesthesia in an instant, and after about a few minutes, Lang Bai's breathing gradually became even and deep, and he had already fallen into a peaceful and deep sleep assisted by drugs.

Yuan Cheng knew that he should leave now, but he was still half kneeling there, unable to move at all.

Why is this my son... he thought.

I love him so much, love him, and take care of him; I have devoted my heart, soul, and time to this; even if he is a person made of stone, after so many years, it should belong to me.

Yuan Cheng closed his eyes, and a voice questioned him in his heart: Yes, he is your son, doesn't this belong to you?You are his father, everything to him, and his world.Doesn't he already belong to you completely? What more do you ask for?

……

What more can I ask for?

Yuan Cheng took a deep breath.

The hazy moonlight smeared on Lang Bai's peaceful sleeping face.His eyes were beautiful, with long and sparse eyelashes, each of which was clearly curved, casting a quiet shadow.There is a feeling of whiteness at the corners of the eyes, and they fly slightly towards the temples. If he looks at others like this from the side, it should be very charming and even seductive.

Would he look at others with such eyes?

——In the not-too-distant future, to see an equally beautiful girl and fall in love with her wholeheartedly?

People who are looked at by him like this will definitely fall in love with him involuntarily.

Yuan Cheng's breathing became heavy.Lang Bai's sleeping face looked so calm and even innocent under the moonlight, his thin, bright red lips were slightly parted, as if he would never wake up no matter what he did.

Yuan Cheng bent down as if possessed, grabbed Lang Bai's wrist, and rubbed it on the delicate skin.The man's rough fingertips left a red mark on the skin of the forearm. The delicate and smooth touch seemed to stimulate Yuan Cheng's more intoxicated desire. He lowered his head and kissed Lang Bai's brow and cheek.

His entire upper body was almost on Lang Bai's body, and the pure body of the young man lingered with some unknown fragrance in the dark night.The man could feel that his lower body was so hard that it hurt, and finally he gave a low sigh as if admitting defeat, and kissed the boy's lips.

There should never be a kiss between father and son, with intense lust and possessive desire.The fierce invasion and entanglement of lips and tongue, the sweet sound of water when sucking, everything is forced on the young man, taboo and exciting so that people can't stop.

——I like him so much, dote on him so much, I have taken care of him for nine years, why can't he belong to me?

Why can't he be more thorough, and completely belong to me alone?

The man tightly squeezed the juvenile's thin chin, so hard that he almost opened his mouth completely.The tobacco-flavored tongue swiped wantonly in the boy's mouth, even bringing out a trace of obscene saliva when they parted.

Lang Bai was lying on the bed, half of the quilt fell down, revealing his slender and fair shoulders.The ravaged lips were a little red and swollen, and the wrists left clear palm prints. It seemed that it was very easy for people to lose their minds and become crazy.

But the traces might disappear tomorrow morning, and he'd never know.

Yuan Cheng was panting heavily.He wanted more, more thoroughly.Desire hit his brain, and his eyes were bloodshot, looking quite terrifying.He just stared at his sleeping little son, at that moment Yuan Cheng's eyes looked more like a beast than a person.But in the end, he forced himself to stand up, step by step, backwards, and slowly walked out of the room.

The desire in his lower body was still aching, and it reminded him ferociously and secretly of what he had done.Yuan Cheng leaned against the wall outside the door, staring at the dark air motionlessly.

...Why do you have this...desire mixed with tyranny and lust for your own son?

Can't even help wanting to get him, break him, or even destroy him?

Yuan Cheng inserted his fingers deeply into his hair, buried his face in his palms, and couldn't see his expression clearly.Yes, he had obtained many people in this way, no matter how beautiful or lovely men and women of all kinds, as long as he wanted it, he would always find a way to get it.Most of the time, he didn't even need to speak, those people would rush over by themselves, or be sent to his bed by others.

He used to think that he would never bother about such things in his life, nor would he be affected by the existence of anyone.It is too easy to get, and it is easy to forget after getting it.

However, it wasn't until one day in his life that he unknowingly developed this desire for his own son-until then, he realized that he was wrong.

There is really such a person in this world, who makes him yearn secretly and crazily, yearn intensely and impulsively, but he is destined to live his whole life, and he can't get what he wants.

Yuan Xiao didn't sleep all night, and when it was just dawn the next morning, Qi Xiaguo rushed in to look for him: "Prince, wake up, Mr. Yuan is looking for you!"

Yuan Zhen sat up abruptly, and hurriedly put on his clothes by the servant's hand.Qi Xiaguo couldn't help but followed him and asked: "Our people at the main house said that Mr. Yuan got angry for no reason in the morning, did you yesterday..."

"I went to find Lang Bai yesterday." Yuan Xiao said without looking back as he went out.

"Are you looking for Young Master Bai?"

"Well, let's talk about Wang Jiadong."

"You ask him to show mercy? He...is it possible for him?!"

"I have to try even if it's impossible," Yuan Xiao got into the car while buttoning up his suit jacket, "I can't just watch Wang Jiadong die, or my uncle will eat me."

The main house was a little blurry in the mist.Some servants were silently sweeping the garden, and the brooms sweeping up the fallen flowers made a monotonous rustling sound.The weather was very cloudy and humid. I don't know if it was because of the stuffiness. When Yuan Xiao walked into the hall, there was already a thick layer of cold sweat on his back.

He was a little surprised when he saw Yuan Cheng.Yuan Cheng has always been an absolute authority in front of everyone, always strict and even a little unreasonable, even when he gets angry, he is cold and suffocating.Yuan Xiao had never seen him so...so anxious.

He was sitting in the study smoking a cigarette, his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, exposing his muscular bronze arms; he seemed to have not slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was filled with undisguised irritability and annoyance.Such a state of mind made Yuan Xiao believe that it is possible for his father to lift the table and shoot the gun now, maybe he will bombard himself immediately.

Yuan Xiao took half a step back: "Father, I'm here."

Yuan Cheng sneered, "Do you know what I'm looking for you for?"

"...Wang, Wang Jiadong?"

"That good cousin of yours drank in your yard yesterday and almost raped your younger brother while he was drunk. Lang Bai stabbed him with a knife. Now he is lying in our hospital. After a night of rescue, it is said that he has died. Wake up soon."

Yuan Xiao smiled stiffly: "Yes, is it?" He didn't know whether he should say "Great" or "It's unfortunate"—after all, he had always thought that Lang Bai would ask someone to do something during the operation. Let Wang Jiadong simply die on the operating table.

"What do you think we should do with Wang Jiadong now?" Yuan Cheng stared at the eldest son, his eyes creeping in the curling smoke, "If Lang Bai's cousin almost raped you while drunk, would you What to do with him?"

"..." Yuan Xiao's feet softened a little, "Father, the problem is that I won't make people associate with it!"

"Shut up!" Yuan Cheng yelled sharply, "I'm asking you something!"

Yuan Xiao immediately knelt down: "I'm sorry father! I shouldn't have invited that guy Wang Jiadong to drink at home! I shouldn't have allowed such absurd things to happen at home! I know my father was wrong!"

"I didn't ask you if you knew you were wrong," Yuan Cheng said coldly, "It doesn't matter whether you know it's wrong or you don't know it's wrong. Whether it’s free or not, I want to hear your cousin’s opinion. Whether to kill or let go or show mercy, I want to hear your opinion on this matter.”

Yuan Hao thought in a cold sweat, could it be that his father already knew that he had gone to see Lang Bai last night?

No, if he knew, what did Lang Bai tell his father?Did he ask his father to let Wang Jiadong go?

If he asked, then according to his father's personality, although he was annoyed, he would never kill Wang Jiadong again.At most, he will be taught a lesson and suffer a little bit, and then someone from the Wang family will definitely bring him back.After all, Lang Bai was a boy. If he was the young lady of the Yuan family, there was no room for him to intervene in the matter. Yuan Cheng would have slaughtered Wang Jiadong alive immediately.

Looking at Yuan Cheng's attitude now, could it be that Lang Bai hadn't had time to intercede with his father?

Yuan Xiao didn't get up, so he took a step forward in a kneeling position, and said in a low voice, "Father, if I have more than this cousin, or if the Wang family has more than one son, then I will take a gun and destroy Wang Jiadong right now. Absolutely nothing! But think about it, the Wang family is just such an heir, if Abai really kills him, what will the Wang family say then? If it is spread outside, what will others say? Saying that our family was cut off because of an adopted son Is it the incense of the Wang family?—or is it that the adopted son you brought up with you is too good and beautiful?!"

Before the last sentence was finished, Yuan Cheng slammed the gun on the table, with a loud bang, the pistol rebounded and grazed Yuan Xiao's face fiercely, knocking him staggering immediately, followed by a sharp pain on his cheek, Hot liquid flowed out from the corner of the mouth, as if two teeth had been broken alive.

Before Yuan Xiao recovered from the dizziness, he felt as if he was hanging in the air. It was hard for him to see clearly what was in front of him. It turned out that he was picked up from the ground by Yuan Cheng who was furious.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Cheng's voice seemed to force each word out from between his teeth, "Lang Bai is my biological son, what exactly do you want to say?"

"...I...I didn't...that meant..." Yuan Xiao felt that his father was about to cut his neck off, "I mean...saying it like this...is not good for Lang Bai himself... ..."

As soon as Yuan Cheng let go, he threw Yuan Xiao aside heavily.

Yuan Xiao fell on the ground and coughed violently, only feeling that his mouth was covered with blood, and his back was covered with cold sweat.

He knew that it was very dangerous to provoke his father at this time, but he had no better way.Wang Jiadong is his cousin, and he will be the biggest help in stabilizing his position in the future.It would be fine if he can successfully inherit the Yuan family after his father a hundred years later. If Lang Bai grows up by then, has his own power, and starts to compete with him for the Yuan family, then Wang Jiadong will be his biggest , the most powerful ally.

After all, his mother, Yuan Xiao, was a lady from a famous family, and his grandfather was a giant.Lang Bai would not be able to catch up with this advantage in his lifetime.

If Wang Jiadong was killed because of Lang Bai, Yuan Xiao would not only lose this important ally, maybe the Wang family would turn against him because of this.

Yes, Lang Bai is his younger brother, they are related by blood.But what does bloodline represent in the Yuan family?Yuan Cheng's father died at the hands of his brothers. Yuan Cheng killed his two uncles when he ascended the throne. It is said that there was a child between Yuan Zou and Lang Bai, who was killed when he was eight years old. still present.The Yuan family is engaged in arms, the most profitable and powerful industry. The Yuan family's blood does not represent family affection, but more often represents power, betrayal, and killing.

"I can let Wang Jiadong go." Yuan Cheng stood condescendingly in front of the eldest son, and said coldly, "As long as Lang Bai wants, I can have someone send Wang Jiadong back."

Yuan Xiao bowed his head deeply, "Thank you, thank you father."

"However, it's not because I'm afraid that others will say that I have raised a beautiful son by my side, and it's not because I'm afraid that people will guess Lang Bai's identity." Yuan Cheng paused, and his tone became extremely cold, "——it's because you have the ability , You persuaded your brother, this is a matter between you brothers."

Yuan Xiao finally knew that Lang Bai was begging for this love.

But begging for mercy, this kindness is for Wang Jiadong, not for Yuan Xiao.Yuan Xiao knew that he had to be extra careful in front of his father in the future, because Yuan Cheng had already become wary of him. In the eyes of his father, he was not only a son, but also a grandson of the Wang family.

This vigilance is a very fatal hidden danger between the head of a family and the prince.

"I want to remind you one more thing," Yuan Cheng lowered his head, staring at Yuan Xiao who was kneeling on the ground.In the early morning, the hazy sky shines into the study from the window behind him, Yuan Cheng's tall figure is facing away from the light, his eyes are buried in the shadows, dim and unclear.

"—don't think about the relationship between me and your brother."

Yuan Xiao knelt on the cold floor of the study for a long time.

Yuan Cheng has been away for a long time, and he still hasn't recovered.

...what the hell does this mean?he thinks.What did I say to make my father think I was crazy?I'm thinking wildly... what's the matter?

Deep uneasiness swept over Yuan Xiao.There seemed to be some important secret in his father's heart that was hard to tell. The anxiety caused by this secret had already affected Lang Bai, affected him, and might affect everyone in the Yuan family's power system in the future.
