Xueba, don't look at me, look at the question!

Bai Jingtan slowly turned his face to the side, his eyelashes still drooping, and the corners of his lips seemed to curl up a bit.

"Didn't you hear what we said just now?"

Mu Nanyu's fingertips trembled, and he firmly grasped Bai Jingtan's wrist: "You, what do you mean, is it true?"

It's true, it's true...

That bloody plot, which is outdated in TV dramas, actually happened to him.

"...Bai Jingtan, we, let's talk after we go out, okay? Let's talk slowly when we get out of here, okay?"

"Bastard, didn't you hear how he slandered your father? You still——I will never allow you to fall in love with a man, let alone agree to you being with him!"

Mu Nanyu almost growled and retorted: "You can't control me!"

Zhao Liang was furious, and immediately slapped him: "How dare you talk to your father like that—"

Mu Nanyu was in a state of confusion and had no time to react, only felt a swift palm wind in his ear.

"You haven't raised him, and you don't have the right to manage him now."

What came into view was Zhao Liang's stunned and angry expression, and Bai Jingtan's hand in front of him, his knuckle fingers stopped Zhao Liang from slapping him, and the veins on the back of his hand were exposed.

"You—I discipline my own son, what does it have to do with you?!"

"I advise you to stay away from my son! You have to sign that contract, and you have to sign it. Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that you are an orphan whose parents both died, I wouldn't give it to you. What a high demolition fee!"

Heart beating so fast that she could hardly breathe, Mu Nanyu gasped for breath, grabbed Bai Jingtan's hand and walked out the door.

"...Leave him alone, leave him alone, let's clarify the matter, you already knew, you already knew that my father is Zhao Delang, right?"

The secretary standing outside the office was dumbfounded, hesitating whether to stop the two who rushed out the door.

Zhao Liang yelled hoarsely behind them: "Let them go! I want to see what waves they can make—"

"Mu Nanyu, you are my son after all! Whether you recognize it or not, blood is thicker than water!"

Pale and trembling, Mu Nanyu pressed the door close button of the elevator. The moment Zhao Liang's angry shout was blocked, he seemed to have lost all his strength and could only stand against the wall of the elevator.

Bai Jingtan pushed his glasses.

Mu Nanyu could feel that the fingertips of the other party were as frighteningly cold as his own.

He barely pulled himself together: "...you haven't answered my question yet."

"Yes, I already knew."

"It's my birthday, the day you sent me to the school gate?"

Bai Jingtan nodded slowly.

So, so that day, Guan Fang said that Bai Jingtan was abnormal.

So that day, Bai Jingtan did not reply to his message for a long time.

So that day, Bai Jingtan stayed alone on their secret lawn for a long time.

He already knew that his parents were probably killed by his father.

Mu Nanyu's whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and the last trace of illusion was completely shattered.

"...Then why haven't you told me?"

The top light of Bai Lingling in the elevator reflected on Bai Jingtan's face, portraying his handsome eyebrows more three-dimensionally and beautifully.

Mu Nanyu looked at him slowly raising his eyes, those familiar long and narrow eyes that were always gentle and indulgent when looking at him, the light spots were all gone at this moment, like a bottomless strait.

"Xiaoyu, let go first."

The voice is hoarse.

Mu Nanyu was stunned, and his shoulders trembled: "What?"

Bai Jingtan reached out his hand, and covered the back of his hand with his palm, slowly clenched it tightly, and grabbed his hand to let him loosen his wrist.

"Xiaoyu... I didn't tell you before, but I always felt that you have never seen him since you were a child, and you and him are just a father and son. The grievances between our family and him should not involve you of."

The elevator door opened, and Mu Nanyu walked out mechanically, a bad premonition had sounded an alarm in his brain.

Walking out of the main hall of the company, the autumn air is crisp outside, and the moderate temperature of the sun spreads the warm golden light. In a small park not far away, several children are chasing and laughing.

Bai Jingtan continued in a low voice: "So that day I went to visit my parents in the cemetery, and I told them about this, and I thought they wouldn't mind me being with you."

"I told myself over and over again, this matter has nothing to do with you. You are just, the boy who lived opposite me at the age of eight, the person I fell in love with very early on."

"It's the little sun who grew up with me all the time, will see that I don't express my emotions, and is willing to help me quietly and care about me."

Bai Jingtan smiled suddenly, his thin lips were very light in color, but the curve of the corners of his lips was beautiful, but that smile revealed an indescribable loneliness.

"Even, I was thinking that the time you have known Zhao Delang is less than one-tenth of the time we have known each other. I shouldn't implicate you in this matter because of those blood ties."

Mu Nanyu's Adam's apple rolled a few times, his almond eyes were stained with mist.

"...Then now, do you still think so?"

He saw the person walking beside him stop. The two of them had never stood so far since they confirmed their relationship.

The boy he cherished most in his heart, whom he had missed for more than ten years, answered in a very light tone and very slowly.

"Now, I don't think so."

It was as if a knife had been stabbed in his heart, Bai Jingtan's words pulled out the knife with his own hands, dripping with blood, the pain was so painful that he almost lost consciousness.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoyu, I'm sorry. I...I'm not a saint. I was in his office just now. When I saw you, I couldn't help but think of him."

"When I saw the contract to move the tomb, I would think of the rainy night when my parents fell into the river and died. Their faces were pale and swollen from the freezing of the river. A few hours ago, they promised to take me for fun when they were free. play."

After a dead silence, Mu Nanyu barely found his voice.

"So, so..." He took a deep breath, the corners of his eyes were completely red, "So, you will think that you went to the playground with me that day, and you will feel, you will feel—"

You will feel ashamed of your dead parents, you will feel guilt that you cannot express, and you will feel that you are not as good as a beast.

Just like when he looks at Bai Jingtan now, he also thinks of his biological father, who lost his parents overnight and became an orphan who depended on his grandma.

These thoughts cannot be controlled rationally, just like invisible poison, which invades your bone marrow unknowingly and blends with your flesh and blood, there is no way to wash it away, no way to get rid of it.

It is a hidden darkness under the sun, which can pull you into the abyss at any time.

Bai Jingtan didn't raise his eyes to look at him from the beginning to the end, his voice was hoarse, almost silent.

"Yes, I think so. It's not your fault It's my fault. You haven't done anything wrong from the beginning to the end. I know that you came here today to help me. "

Mu Nanyu struggled a bit: "I don't want to hear this..."

But the other party's voice continued, cruel and gentle, sudden and blameless.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoyu. I think... both of us, we should calm down for a while."

"Let's break up. I will move out of the dormitory and take a semester off. During this time, we will not see each other again."
