Rarely affectionate

"You friend, he likes you very much." Yuan Cheng's voice suddenly came from behind Lang Bai, under the warm afternoon sun, there was a kind of lazy gentleness.

Lang Bai turned his head and saw Yuan Cheng following him at some point, wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, compared with his usual solemn and majestic image, he looked extraordinarily young and energetic.

Lang Bai rolled his eyes at the moment when he turned his head, "I like him very much, even though he is busy."

"I like it, but it's not the same as what you say like it." Yuan Cheng laughed softly, "As long as you say you like someone, or if the person talks interestingly, behaves respectfully, and gets along very well with you, So you like him; either this person is of great use to you, can help you achieve your ambitions or give you what you want, so you like him. And when I say this young man likes you, I mean he likes his girlfriend, spouse , Your partner misses you and admires you, but you don't realize it."

Lang Bai was stunned for a few seconds, then laughed in shock: "Dad, you think everyone else is like you... I mean, is it common to like the same sex?"

Yuan Cheng heard his hidden meaning, but his smile didn't change at all, he just looked at him without saying a word.

"..." Lang Bai was silent for a while under his gaze, and then said softly: "It's not that I didn't realize it at all, and sometimes I feel a little bit... But I prefer a loyal friend who treats you with great kindness. Me, I will repay him with great kindness. As long as I think that this friend has other plans for my good, I feel very uncomfortable in my heart, and I don't want to see him anymore."

"You don't just do this to Rosethorne, you do it to other people too. When you get along with women, you have a cold attitude, even when you are with your buddies, you always have reservations, and you always resist others getting too close to you "Yuan Cheng rubbed his chin and let out a long "huh": "This is not good, Ah Bai. You make me feel like you are born to hate love..."

Lang Bai remained silent.

Yuan Cheng looked at his expression, suddenly laughed, and patted his face: "It's okay, I'm just saying it casually. There are many people of all kinds in this world. Some people put family affection above everything else, and some put brotherly loyalty. As life, there are some people who have a daughter-in-law and don’t want a mother, and a husband who doesn’t want a father. You are just insulating the relationship between men and women, there is nothing to worry about.”

"...I'm not insulated..." Lang Bai paused, and said, "I just don't believe it, I don't think it's reliable."

"Then do you think Dad is reliable?"

Lang Bai paused for two seconds, then nodded.

"Why? Because there is still a blood relationship between us, isn't it?"

Lang Bai frowned, and there was a slight mark between his brows.Yuan Cheng knew that it was the expression he showed unconsciously when he was confused.

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it." Yuan Cheng patted him on the shoulder, and led him out of the yard, "Let's go home, we still have to pack things tonight."

Lang Bai followed Yuan Cheng, feeling that the sun was a little too big, just as he narrowed his eyes, Yuan Cheng's hand supporting his shoulder immediately moved up, blocking the side of his eyes facing the sun.

It's always good to have someone leading the way.

When you were just a toddler, he supported you to prevent you from falling. When you first learned to walk, he let go of his hands and looked after you eagerly. When you first started running, he waited in front of you and opened his arms and arms to you. Tired I will provide you with a solid arm, the most steadfast protection and the most sincere love in the world.

When encountering storms, he is the harbor. When encountering setbacks and confusion, he has mature and rich life experience for you to refer to at any time, and you are free to ask for help and comfort.

All this is not only because of the illusory love, because under the love, there is the most unbreakable blood relationship in the world to provide protection.

If even this cannot be trusted, what bond is stronger in the world?

The next morning when Lang Bai was still lying on the bed, he was packed by his father, and the whole thing was stuffed into the pile of luggage, and he rushed to the airport.

When Yuan Xiao heard the news, he ran out of the house, and when he arrived at the airport, he saw his father standing in front of the private business plane and waving to him.Lang Bai repeatedly said something to Yuan Xiao, but Yuan Cheng mercilessly covered his mouth and stuffed it back.

Yuan Xiao's eyes turned red, and he called out to his father, and then his throat was blocked by sobs.

Yuan Cheng gasped, and thought to himself, no way, those few random words with his elder son are still effective now?I don't have the idea of ​​letting him devote himself to the group and die!This kid is too simple and honest!

Lang Bai wanted to expose Yuan Cheng's shameless deception, but just as soon as his head appeared, his father pushed him back behind him, revealing only the two hairs on the top of his head that hadn't slept well.

"Father, you have to come back often, and I will go to the United States to see you and Abai whenever I have time!" Yuan Zhen wiped the corners of his eyes and swore: "No matter how difficult the difficulties are, I will never let you down." hope! Just wait and see!"

"...Oh, oh, good, good." Yuan Cheng patted the elder son's shoulder with complicated emotions: "You, don't work too hard, pay attention to your body when appropriate."

"Father, please don't worry about me! I never understood your painstaking efforts before, but now I won't!" Yuan Xiao clenched his fists tightly, "I will definitely prove it to you when you come back from the United States for inspection. of!"

Yuan Cheng opened his mouth, looked up at the sky after a while and said, "...Oh, yes, yes."

Lang Bai popped up, looking at Yuan Zou with hatred, "Brother."

"Abai! Abai, you must not come back when you go to the United States this time. You must remember that big brother stayed alone in Hong Kong. Although big brother was sorry for you before, he will definitely..."

"Big brother."

Yuan Xiao's passionate parting was interrupted coldly by his biological brother: "... eh? What did you say?"

Lang Bai gritted his teeth and stared at Yuan Xiao for a long time: "...I said you deserve it for being exhausted."

With a crackling sound, Yuan Xiao's glass heart that wanted to be a good brother shattered into countless pieces in the cold wind, and then flew away with a huff.

Lang Bai turned his head and walked along the ladder to the cabin door, gnashing his teeth while walking: "Brother is so stupid!"

Yuan Cheng silently followed behind him with his suitcase: "Yes, yes."

"I was dismissed by my father's two random nonsense!"

"……Yeah yeah."

"I didn't even want a penny, so I took the bait automatically and spontaneously, and went to work as a volunteer!"

"...Yeah yeah =="

Yuan Xiao's helpless cry came from behind: "Ah Bai! Even if the American company is split off, don't raise the price of raw materials too much! Remember to give the big brother the discount that should be discounted! ... We are brothers and have Remember not to take advantage of outsiders when doing business!!..."

A vein popped out of Lang Bai's forehead: "Dream!"

The plane accelerated and slid on the runway, then soared into the sky.

Lang Bai stood in front of the hatch and looked at the land under his feet that was getting smaller and smaller. The early morning mist enveloped the field and the mountains and rivers. As the plane got higher and higher, he gradually couldn't see anything clearly.

Yuan Cheng came from behind him, holding a plate of breakfast consisting of fruits, eggs, bacon, bread and a glass of milk, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Lang Bai said, "Look at Hong Kong."

"What's there to see?" Yuan Cheng came here when he was a teenager and has lived in Hong Kong for more than 30 years, so he has no novelty about this city.

Lang Bai was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice: "Father, do you remember that when I looked out of the Yuan's window, you asked me what I was looking at?"

Yuan Cheng immediately recalled that it was the day when he and Yuan Xiao confronted each other in front of his subordinates in the confinement room of the mansion.At that time, Yuan Xiao brought his father here, and when Yuan Cheng arrived, he ordered Lang Bai to be sent back. As a result, Lang Bai returned to the living room of the main house.It was that night that Lang Bai tied Yuan Xiao into the semi-submarine ahead of time, and then Yuan Cheng arrived and shot him in mid-air.

Later, in the year when Lang Bai disappeared, Yuan Cheng forced himself to recall everything that happened that day over and over again, wishing to carve every detail into his flesh and blood, and stay with him until he died of old age.

"At that time you asked me what I was looking at, but I said nothing. You and your eldest brother have become accustomed to what I saw, and gradually turned a blind eye to it."

Lang Bai paused for a moment before saying: "I'm looking down from the window of Yuan's house, all kinds of power and power in the world."

Yuan Cheng's face moved slightly, as if he was a little surprised.

"Since I was a child, you have brought me by your side to raise me personally. I used to think that you were the best father in the world. But then I gradually discovered that you never know which direction my eyes are looking. You take it for granted Arrange the life of my brother and me, and treat me well in your way, but that is not what I need." Lang Bai paused, as if explaining something: "Actually, my eyes fell on you a long time ago. As far as the power of the Yuan family is concerned, you may be surprised if I say it earlier."

"...Dad can't see it, so I can only try things that you might like, and see what can attract your attention." Yuan Cheng was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Actually, Dad wants to get your attention. .”

Since Lang Bai was very young, Yuan Cheng gave him a lot of things: an extremely affluent life, a steady stream of money, expensive piano instruments, and various calligraphy and paintings from auctions.Compared with Yuan Xiao, Lang Bai's childhood life was infinitely happier.

But those material gifts are not as good as the real power given to Lang Bai as an heir.It wasn't until Yuan Cheng asked his youngest son to contribute to the Yuan family that he expressed a little bit of happiness.

"Dad," Lang Bai said, "you have given me many painful days since I was 15 years old, but this transfer document makes me feel that my future is still very promising."

He turned his head and smiled at Yuan Cheng.

The morning light reflected from outside the cabin and sprinkled on his side face, as if his figure was melted into the golden light, so beautiful that people dare not look directly at it.

"Only this time, you are indeed looking in the direction I want you to be."

Yuan Cheng looked at his youngest son for a long time, with some indescribably complicated emotions in his eyes.But after a while, he smiled, forked a piece of fruit and stuffed it into Lang Bai's mouth, "Go and eat your breakfast."

Lang Bai was obviously very happy, he obediently chewed a few times, swallowed the fruit, and opened his mouth obediently again.

He is full of expectations and excitement for the road he will take in the future. The joy, happiness, and eagerness to try make him forget all the difficulties and hardships in his youth, and let him stretch out like a bird flying free for the first time. wing.

How young, Yuan Cheng thought.

Sometimes he is thankful that Lang Bai is young and he is not too old. The two of them still have many years to go.However, sometimes he felt that his youngest son was too young, so young that his life was full of various uncertainties.

He hasn't met the person he should really meet, maybe there are still many wonderful and heroic things on the road ahead of his life, the best years and love are still waiting for him to pick, but he is already halfway, being caught The biological father led to another irreversible path.

The process of taking away is very easy, but it is just a few key steps that are slightly deflected in the long journey of life.However, after changing the road, the front is in darkness, with no exit in sight, and no light, thorns and traps lie ahead, and dangers and unknowns are hidden in deep shadows.They still have to go on a lifetime, and this journey is too difficult and too long.

Lang Bai was still too young, he passively followed behind his father, he couldn't see all this.Once one day he wants to turn back, he must turn around and go back, without hesitation, he runs to the fork in which he has strayed.

"If one day..."

Lang Bai raised his head, biting an egg in his mouth, he could only express his doubts with his eyes.

"If one day you give up and leave," Yuan Cheng patted his youngest son's head with a smile on his face, but his voice sounded like a slightly concealed sigh, "...I won't go either. Chasing you, I will go down alone."

He was not sure whether this endless road was really right for his youngest son, so he wanted to keep Lang Bai's chance to turn around.On this road full of thorns and unknowns, one day he will walk alone, with nothing around him, only the memories of the past, following him to the moment when he stops breathing.

——One day I will give you the power to decide, and then I will restrain myself and never go back to chase you.

Because I love you.

"... What did you say?" Lang Bai frowned, looking at his father with some doubts.

However, Yuan Cheng just touched his face, bowed his head and kissed him: "——No, it's nothing."

The plane sailed smoothly through the clouds, and the direction ahead was the rising sun.

This may be the first time that their father and son have followed the same road and headed in the same direction.

Yuan Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the clouds dotted with countless golden edges by the sun outside the hatch, and the vibrant sun rising in the sky.

Lang Bai had already finished his breakfast, and was wearing a blindfold, sitting on the recliner next to Yuan Cheng, sleeping soundly with his head tilted.After all, he didn't get enough sleep in the morning, and when his stomach was full, he rushed up from the sleepiness.

No matter how many storms and hardships there have been, no matter how long and hopeless nights have been, at least now they sit together, shoulder to shoulder, hand to hand.No one spoke in the cabin, it was quiet and peaceful, a rare serenity.

The blanket on Lang Bai's body was about to slip off, Yuan Cheng gently pulled him up and tucked it in, and brushed the young son's steady breathing with the back of his hand.

After he wakes up, it will be a brand new tomorrow.

The sun had fully risen, facing the direction the plane was flying, and there was a golden light ahead.
