After the substitute, he counterattacked and became Bai Yueguang
Chapter 35 Weighing the pros and cons
After Qi Tang came out of the banquet, he walked all the way without stopping. He didn't know what else to do besides keep walking.
It hurts even to breathe.
The sky was getting dark, and a heavy rain was coming, everyone hurried home, only he was escaping from home.
He is against the world.
Qi Tang's mind was a little dizzy, and he suddenly remembered those people who were staring at him when he first arrived at the banquet.
The memory was rewound to a few days ago, and their faces gradually overlapped with the faces of the few people he met in the mall when he and Lin An went out to buy flower seedlings together.
Now that I think about it, it's no wonder Lin An wanted to dismiss him.
No wonder Lin An would look like that when he told Lin An to invite friends to the house.
Qi Tang wiped his face, it was full of water.
It's raining.
He continued to walk forward, thoughts constantly churning in his mind.
And that time, when he posted on Moments to make it public, Lin An didn't even like that post...
In the morning after making love that day, he actually woke up very early.
He was lying there, Lin An thought he was asleep, so he took a picture of him without any scruples and edited a circle of friends.
Then deleted again.
At that time, he watched quietly, but he actually noticed something was wrong, really.
But at that time he remembered what Lin An said: Falling in love is a matter between the two of us, it has nothing to do with other people, and showing affection is superfluous.
Thinking about it now, Qi Tang finds it ridiculous.
He walked, stopped again, and retched while leaning on the roadside pillars.
Psychology calls this kind of reaction an overreaction, and it happens because the sudden stimulation is too great for people to bear.
Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Lin An never thought of making him public.
What he thought was a heavy and holy love, in the eyes of that person, was just a light thing that could be thrown away at any time.
He thought he was very important to Lin An, but he was actually just a little thing.
Qi Tang clutched his heart tightly, the pain was severe.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, gradually blinding his eyes, Qi Tang didn't go any further, he stood by the road, not knowing where to go.
At this time, a car suddenly stopped beside him.
The car door opened, a pair of slender legs stretched out, and then a delicate young master came out from inside.
Qin Xiao held a big black umbrella and raised it above his head.
"What's wrong with you." He spoke to Qi Tang very gently for the first time.
Because he felt that the person in front of him seemed to be unable to take any more stimulation, and he was afraid that Qi Tang would suddenly shatter.
So even speaking is very light, very light.
Qi Tang glanced at him, wiped his face, and showed a pale smile: "What a coincidence."
He smiled like this, a little scary, Qin Xiao stood there at a loss.
There was a butler standing beside the car, and the butler suddenly came over and said softly, "Sir, I'm going to be late."
Qin Xiao didn't answer, just looked at Qi Tang, was silent for a while, and then said:
"Would you like to go to my car and take a rest, there are clean clothes for you to change."
Qi Tang thought about it, anyway, he has no place to go now: "Okay, thank you."
After the two got into the car, Qin Xiao took out a set of shirts for him: "My brother's, you should be able to wear them."
Qi Tang took it nonchalantly, and then directly unbuttoned it and changed it.
Qin Xiao frowned, originally he was a boy, he thought it was nothing, but when Qi Tang showed his fair skin, his face suddenly turned red.
Hastily looking away, Qin Xiao turned his face away.
He didn't turn back until the rustling sound had passed.
Seeing Qi Tang looking out of the window expressionlessly, Qin Xiao felt a little sad.
Because he felt that the person in front of him was very sad, and that emotion made the atmosphere in the car very gloomy.
He didn't know what to say, so he could only ask, "Are you okay?"
Qi Tang was very calm: "Yes."
Qin Xiao said again: "Mr. Lu asked you to prepare the entries. Have you started to draw? I want to learn."
Qi Tang: "No."
Back and forth, very unnutritious conversation, but Qin Xiao felt that Qi Tang's mood seemed to ease a little.
When you are sad, you have to talk to people more. This sentence was told to him by his brother, and it seems reasonable.
"Are you hungry?" Qin Xiao continued.
Qi Tang: "Not hungry."
Qin Xiao: "Are you thirsty?"
Qi Tang: "I'm not thirsty."
Qin Xiao: "Are you cold?"
Qi Tang finally didn't hold back, and turned to look at him, with a helpless and funny face on his face:
"I'm sorry, young master, I don't have any needs now, so you don't need to ask one by one."
Qin Xiao was a little embarrassed, he just wanted to divert Qi Tang's attention.
Suddenly, Qin Xiao thought of something, and he recalled what he hadn't finished saying in the studio that day:
"Do you know that the Lin family where your boyfriend Lin An lives has a rule?"
Qi Tang froze, and slowly looked out the window: "I didn't know before, but now I know."
When he spoke, his voice was very calm, but his fingertips were tightly clutching the corner of his clothes, as if he wanted to tear something apart.
Qin Xiao was inexplicably relieved.
He felt that it was impossible for a person like Qi Tang to be tempted by others because of money and fame, and to be treated as a little thing for others to keep and play.
Qin Xiao went on to say: "This rule has been around for a long, long time, and it was here before I was born."
Halfway through the speech, he felt that the people around him reacted strongly. Although Qi Tang tried his best to cover up and pretended to be calm and composed, he could still see it.
Qin Xiao said carefully: "This, can't you mention it? I'm sorry..."
He bit his lip and apologized, growing up so big, he rarely apologized, but now he felt that his words hurt Qi Tang.
After a while, a hoarse voice sounded in the car: "No, you continue to talk, I want to hear it."
Qin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued:
"The Lin family, it seems that something happened a long time ago. Later, there was this rule. Once the heirs of the family business have a lover, they have to go through the screening of the family and then make it public. This is considered a formal relationship."
"The ones that haven't been made public, the default in the circle is to keep them for fun. Therefore, members of the Lin family don't casually associate with anyone, but they will raise a lot of those for fun, both male and female."
He's done.
But there was no sound in the car for a long time.
Qin Xiao asked gently: "Are you okay?"
A broken voice came: "Can you take me home."
Lin An's face was so gloomy that he couldn't look at it after listening to Assistant Tian's story.
"Who told him about this rule?"
Assistant Tian shook his head: "Sir, I don't know. At that time, I only saw Mr. Qi Xiao suddenly ran out of the room and vomited at the door."
Lin An took off his coat while walking towards the hall, and tugged at the collar of his shirt.
He stood at the side of the hall, squinted his eyes and scanned all the people in the hall, and finally his eyes fell on Lin Sheng.
Lin An stepped forward.
At this time, Lin Sheng was still talking and laughing at Qi Tang:
"His reaction at the time was too funny, and he really took himself seriously."
Without saying a word, Lin An raised his sleeves and kicked him on the ground, and then kicked him hard several times.
The people around wanted to watch the fun, but didn't dare, so they could only pretend to be okay and continue doing their own thing, but their eyes couldn't stop looking there.
Lin Sheng was lying on the ground rolling in pain, and when he managed to recover and was about to get up, he kicked him directly in the stomach again.
"You're fucking sick!" He yelled, holding back the pain.
Lin An's expression was a little scary: "You told Qi Tang the rules of the Lin family?"
Hearing this, Lin Sheng rolled his eyes and smiled instead, "How do you know it's me? There are so many people here, why don't you wrong others."
Lin An gritted his teeth, squatted down and grabbed his neck, his fox eyes were full of cruelty:
"Because, here, only you dare to challenge my bottom line."
Lin Sheng laughed even wider: "I'll just take you as a compliment on my bravery. That's right, I told him, what can you do."
Lin An squinted his eyes, let go of him, stood up and walked out while saying in a calm voice:
"From today onwards, whoever dares to hang out with Ghost Lin Sheng again, or helps him secretly, don't blame me for being rude."
Everyone around fell silent, and those who were still chatting and laughing with Lin Sheng all kept away from him at the same time.
Lin An said to Assistant Tian again: "Let someone lock him back to Lin's house, and he will not be released again for these two months."
Assistant Tian responded respectfully, "Good sir."
The Lin family is very special. Their business is a family business with absolute independence. There can only be one heir, and they have absolute right to speak and control.
The same is true in the family, everything must be obeyed by the heir.
And Lin An is the successor of this generation.
Such a system has allowed the Lin family's industry to prosper in City A for a long time, with a strong cohesion. When encountering a financial crisis, it is always easier than other companies to survive, but it also has many disadvantages.
After dealing with the matter here, Lin An left in a hurry, got into the car and said, "Did you see where he went?"
Assistant Tian drove the car: "No."
Lin An rubbed between his brows wearily: "Then, let's go home first."
The home where they live together.
Suddenly thinking of something, Lin An hurriedly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qi Tang.
He was so anxious that he forgot the smartest and most convenient contact method.
Two hours later, Lin An sat on the sofa in the living room of the villa, where there were still traces of their love.
He looked at the densely packed messages on his mobile phone, as well as the calls he made several times but failed to answer, and closed his eyes wearily.
This time, his baby really ignored him.
No matter what he sent, he got no reply.
In the next few days, Qi Tang never went back to that house, and Lin An sat in the living room until late at night, hoping to wait for someone to come back.
But it didn't.
During the day, he looked for people everywhere, went to Qi Tang's company, but was kicked out by Qi Ye.
He also went to the studio, but Qin Xiao didn't give him a good look.
They all seem to know where Qi Tang is, but they just don't tell Lin An.
Lin An felt powerless for the first time, and felt power and money were useless for the first time.
But he understood that Qi Tang would not give up his dream, he would always return to the studio, so Lin An began to squat near the studio.
At this time, Qi Tang was at Zhang Cheng's house.
Seeing him sitting in a daze like this, Zhang Cheng sighed distressedly: "Tang, you can't go on like this."
Qi Tang didn't move.
He felt that his love was insulted, and he was also insulted. The person who caused all this was Lin An.
Now he feels dizzy when he looks at everything, as long as he thinks of Lin An, he feels like he's going to pass out.
He was so sad that he couldn't even make a sound.
Zhang Cheng looked aside for a while, said nothing, turned around and took out a case of beer from the cabinet, then directly opened five bottles and placed them in front of him.
"Drink, let me drink to death."
Qi Tang slowly raised his head and glanced at him.
Zhang Cheng said, "Do you want to drink?"
Qi Tang still didn't move.
The next moment, Zhang Cheng directly stepped forward and grabbed his chin, separated his upper and lower jaws, then picked up the wine bottle and poured it into Qi Tang's mouth.
The person in front of him looked painful, but he didn't struggle. He stood there motionless, like a broken machine.
Zhang Cheng's heart ached to death, but he couldn't help it.
Qi Tang's current state is actually stagnant in his chest, unable to vent, and the excessive sadness has made him slow and numb.
He had to figure out a way to get him out.
Alcohol can excite people's nerves to a certain extent, and force people to express their emotions. It is much easier to vent at this time.
After filling half a bottle, Zhang Cheng stopped his hand.
He took out a tissue and wiped it for Qi Tang, then sat down beside him.
Qi Tang's capacity for alcohol was not good, and soon he got a little pissed off, and his originally pale complexion became much ruddy.
But his whole body was shaking.
Zhang Cheng sighed, and gently hugged him.
"Tang, you are too deep, you have to let yourself go."
"Think about it, you are still young, you only made a mistake once, but with your conditions, you have the capital to try and make mistakes, that person is nothing, you are sad now, and you are the one who is embarrassing yourself."
Qi Tang finally moved.
Yes, he is still young. At the beginning, he thought that he was still young and could afford to make mistakes, so he handed over everything.
But age is just a number, and he has only one heart.
It's like you take a coin to draw a lottery. If you cast it out, you cast it out. There is no way to undo it.
He felt that now, his heart seemed to be poached by someone.
Zhang Cheng said again: "Besides, didn't you say that there will be some kind of competition next month, it must be more important than being sad for the scumbag?"
"It's been so difficult for you these years. You always want to realize your dreams, so you can't give up painting anymore. At least this aspect is obtained by your own strength, which is much more practical than falling in love."
Qi Tang was taken aback for a moment, and after a long silence, he finally uttered a hoarse sentence:
"Yes, I still want to win an award."
Listening to him, Zhang Cheng felt sour in his heart, and almost burst into tears.
God, this kid has been holding himself back for three or four days, and finally he can speak.
If it doesn't work, he's going to send him to the hospital.
Qi Tang said again: "But, but I, I feel so uncomfortable."
He couldn't help panting and choking, resisting the urge to vomit, and then pointed to his heart:
"I'm having a really hard time here."
Before Qi Tang could cry, Zhang Cheng cried first: "Tang, let's stop thinking about it, let's vent our discomfort."
"I won't laugh at you if you cry."
Zhang Cheng put the tissue in front of him: "I'm going to Qingqing's house tonight, you are fine. No one will see you, and the soundproofing here is good, even if you yell loudly, no one will hear you. Don't suppress it."
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Qi Tang, in the dim light, Qi Tang's body was shaking violently.
Zhang Cheng didn't know if he was crying, but he saw Qi Tang bite his arm hard.
After getting his clothes and going out, Zhang Cheng locked the door.
Although Qi Tang's personality is not perfect, he still has to be on the safe side, fearing that people will be overwhelmed and run out, and then hide and no one will find out what to do.
At least he is at home now, so he feels at ease.
No one had a very peaceful night.
When Zhang Cheng went back the next day, Qi Tang lay curled up on the ground and fell asleep.
He sighed, and took a blanket to cover him, but saw a deep tooth mark on Qi Tang's arm.
Zhang Cheng's heart ached.
Why bother, if you really want to torture yourself like this, just go to Lin An and do it for him to see.
He didn't believe that Lin An could remain indifferent.
Even if you have a puppy at home, if it gets cut somewhere, the owner should feel sorry for it.
The simple thing is that although Qi Tang bit her deeply, she didn't break the skin, and the marks should disappear in a few days.
As soon as the blanket fell on Qi Tang's body, his eyelids moved and he woke up.
Zhang Cheng hurriedly said, "Are you awake? What do you want to eat?"
Qi Tang's eyes were scarlet, and he didn't know what he did alone last night to make himself like this.
"Don't eat, I'm going to work in the company."
Zhang Cheng's eyes turned sour: "What shift do you have? I told him about your brother's side, and he told you to rest well."
Qi Tang was silent for a while, but still stood up: "Then I'm going to the studio, hurry up and get ready for the entries."
Anyway, he couldn't stop him, so Zhang Cheng simply let him go, and with Qi Tang in this state, it would be best if he could find something to do, at least to divert his attention.
After tidying up, Qi Tang came out of Zhang Cheng's house and took a taxi.
When he got off the car, before he entered the studio, he saw a person standing under a big tree not far away.
The man's face was full of exhaustion, but his clothes were still noble, but he looked a little indescribably pale.
Qi Tang's heart began to beat violently, and he passed in front of that person pretending that he hadn't seen anything.
He knew that Lin An would definitely come to block him, and he also knew that running away would not solve the problem.
But when he really saw him, he was rejecting that person both physically and psychologically, and his brain quickly gave him instructions to run away.
"Baby." A familiar voice and nickname.
Qi Tang felt deaf for a moment, and even walked slowly.
This gave Lin An an opportunity, he quickly hugged Qi Tang, pushed him against the wall, and trapped him.
"Baby, listen to me, listen to my explanation, please calm down." Lin An frowned.
Qi Tang's chest rose and fell a few times, and he gradually recovered, then looked down at him:
"I'm calm, I just don't want to see you."
Lin An lowered his eyes, and instead of wasting opportunities and time on boring disputes, he went straight to the point and pointed out the core:
"That family rule is true, but it's not like that."
Hearing him take the initiative to mention it, Qi Tang thought of the onlookers and humiliation he suffered at the banquet for nothing, and he felt his head start to hurt again.
"So." He tried to calm down.
He knew that Lin An would not let him go if he didn't listen to the explanation today.
"Our Lin family has a few secrets, which are very shameful and embarrassing, and we don't want outsiders to know." Lin An said slowly.
Both of them calmed down a lot, but it seemed that it was only calm on the surface.
"Because those secrets involve the interests of the entire Lin family, no one in the Lin family will spread them to the outside world."
"But because of this, there is an additional rule - when the younger generation of the Lin family fall in love, they must be brought home for review, screening, and making sure they can reach a community of interests with us, and then they will be accepted."
The wind was a little bit cooler, and the broken hair on Qi Tang's forehead was a little messed up. Lin An pressed his whole body against the wall, and he didn't move at all.
"This has nothing to do with our affairs." Qi Tang said hoarsely.
Lin An was afraid that the pressure would make him uncomfortable, so he relaxed a little, and continued:
"Yes. But the Lin family still has a rule that outsiders don't know about."
"It is absolutely impossible to hand over the inheritance rights of a business to a person who has a same-sex partner."
Qi Tang's chest began to heave slightly again, the anger in his eyes was undisguised:
"So you humiliate me like this because you don't want to lose your status as an heir?"
Lin An shook his head, frowned and said, "Baby, listen to me."
"This rule is because many years ago, my father also had a gay man, but after the other party became a partner with him, he almost emptied the Lin family, so there is such a rule."
"Later, my father's homosexuals were kicked out of the Lin family, and my father went crazy. This is also one of the Lin family's secrets."
Qi Tang frowned slowly, he seemed to understand something.
The Lin family is a family business, so the decency of the heir is the decency of the entire Lin family and the entire enterprise.
And Lin An's father went crazy and became a mental patient, which is extremely disgraceful.
Therefore, if anyone in the Lin family has a partner, they must first take them home and screen them before making them public.
Because once this person's identity as the partner of the Lin family is disclosed, he will be one with the Lin family in the eyes of outsiders. No matter how stupid a person is, he will not do things that harm his own interests.
Lin An's voice continued: "I have been learning to run a company since I was 16 years old, and I have been running the company while going to school. The Wan'an Group has been my painstaking effort for many years."
"Baby, I admit, I'm really selfish, and I can't let go of these painstaking efforts."
Lin An spoke very frankly, because he knew that Qi Tang was an extremely smart person, even if he didn't say it himself, he could still think about it.
So, the best thing to do is to confess to yourself, confess with all your heart, and ask for forgiveness.
But Qi Tang didn't seem to be moved by him, and just looked at him calmly.
Those deep eyes were vaguely cold, as if looking at a stranger.
Lin An's heart ached, his baby clearly didn't look at him like this before.
He grabbed Qi Tang's arm:
"But baby, I didn't think that you would go to the banquet that day, and I didn't think that you would be humiliated by the public."
Qi Tang's voice was also very calm: "Yes, because you humiliated me even deeper."
Lin An was stunned for a moment, with a tired look on his face:
"Baby, it's not that I don't want to disclose you, it's just that it's not the time yet."
"I have already focused on improving Wan'an Group, transforming it from a family business into a general holding company, so that Wan'an will not be restrained and influenced by the Lin family."
"This is a reform. When I succeed, the Lin family business will become history. The rules of the Lin family will also be abolished. Then I will make you public—"
Qi Tang interrupted him suddenly with a smile: "Impossible."
He could see that, after all, Lin An chose power between him and power.
Weigh the pros and cons, what a wonderful word.
Lin An's kindness to him, his love for him, and his affection for him were all tightly controlled by this word.
But Lin An chose to put power ahead of him.
His sincerity, his feelings, and everything about him become worthless in front of material things.
Just like what Qi Ye said, this person may just like him, but not love him.
So when it comes to their own interests, they will abandon him as soon as possible.
The author has something to say:
Although, the car is not overturned yet, and there are still
When the book is finished, he will be Niu Colu. Tang QVQ

Thanks to the little angel of the irrigation nutrient solution: 10 bottles of Shu; 458997555 bottles; 1 bottle of Yan Zhuo;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
It hurts even to breathe.
The sky was getting dark, and a heavy rain was coming, everyone hurried home, only he was escaping from home.

Everyone around fell silent, and those who were still chatting and laughing with Lin Sheng all kept away from him at the same time.
Lin An said to Assistant Tian again: "Let someone lock him back to Lin's house, and he will not be released again for these two months."
Assistant Tian responded respectfully, "Good sir."
The Lin family is very special. Their business is a family business with absolute independence. There can only be one heir, and they have absolute right to speak and control.
The same is true in the family, everything must be obeyed by the heir.
And Lin An is the successor of this generation.
Such a system has allowed the Lin family's industry to prosper in City A for a long time, with a strong cohesion. When encountering a financial crisis, it is always easier than other companies to survive, but it also has many disadvantages.
After dealing with the matter here, Lin An left in a hurry, got into the car and said, "Did you see where he went?"
Assistant Tian drove the car: "No."
Lin An rubbed between his brows wearily: "Then, let's go home first."
The home where they live together.
Suddenly thinking of something, Lin An hurriedly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qi Tang.
He was so anxious that he forgot the smartest and most convenient contact method.
Two hours later, Lin An sat on the sofa in the living room of the villa, where there were still traces of their love.
He looked at the densely packed messages on his mobile phone, as well as the calls he made several times but failed to answer, and closed his eyes wearily.
This time, his baby really ignored him.
No matter what he sent, he got no reply.
In the next few days, Qi Tang never went back to that house, and Lin An sat in the living room until late at night, hoping to wait for someone to come back.
But it didn't.
During the day, he looked for people everywhere, went to Qi Tang's company, but was kicked out by Qi Ye.
He also went to the studio, but Qin Xiao didn't give him a good look.
They all seem to know where Qi Tang is, but they just don't tell Lin An.
Lin An felt powerless for the first time, and felt power and money were useless for the first time.
But he understood that Qi Tang would not give up his dream, he would always return to the studio, so Lin An began to squat near the studio.
At this time, Qi Tang was at Zhang Cheng's house.
Seeing him sitting in a daze like this, Zhang Cheng sighed distressedly: "Tang, you can't go on like this."
Qi Tang didn't move.
He felt that his love was insulted, and he was also insulted. The person who caused all this was Lin An.
Now he feels dizzy when he looks at everything, as long as he thinks of Lin An, he feels like he's going to pass out.
He was so sad that he couldn't even make a sound.
Zhang Cheng looked aside for a while, said nothing, turned around and took out a case of beer from the cabinet, then directly opened five bottles and placed them in front of him.
"Drink, let me drink to death."
Qi Tang slowly raised his head and glanced at him.
Zhang Cheng said, "Do you want to drink?"
Qi Tang still didn't move.
The next moment, Zhang Cheng directly stepped forward and grabbed his chin, separated his upper and lower jaws, then picked up the wine bottle and poured it into Qi Tang's mouth.
The person in front of him looked painful, but he didn't struggle. He stood there motionless, like a broken machine.
Zhang Cheng's heart ached to death, but he couldn't help it.
Qi Tang's current state is actually stagnant in his chest, unable to vent, and the excessive sadness has made him slow and numb.
He had to figure out a way to get him out.
Alcohol can excite people's nerves to a certain extent, and force people to express their emotions. It is much easier to vent at this time.
After filling half a bottle, Zhang Cheng stopped his hand.
He took out a tissue and wiped it for Qi Tang, then sat down beside him.
Qi Tang's capacity for alcohol was not good, and soon he got a little pissed off, and his originally pale complexion became much ruddy.
But his whole body was shaking.
Zhang Cheng sighed, and gently hugged him.
"Tang, you are too deep, you have to let yourself go."
"Think about it, you are still young, you only made a mistake once, but with your conditions, you have the capital to try and make mistakes, that person is nothing, you are sad now, and you are the one who is embarrassing yourself."
Qi Tang finally moved.
Yes, he is still young. At the beginning, he thought that he was still young and could afford to make mistakes, so he handed over everything.
But age is just a number, and he has only one heart.
It's like you take a coin to draw a lottery. If you cast it out, you cast it out. There is no way to undo it.
He felt that now, his heart seemed to be poached by someone.
Zhang Cheng said again: "Besides, didn't you say that there will be some kind of competition next month, it must be more important than being sad for the scumbag?"
"It's been so difficult for you these years. You always want to realize your dreams, so you can't give up painting anymore. At least this aspect is obtained by your own strength, which is much more practical than falling in love."
Qi Tang was taken aback for a moment, and after a long silence, he finally uttered a hoarse sentence:
"Yes, I still want to win an award."
Listening to him, Zhang Cheng felt sour in his heart, and almost burst into tears.
God, this kid has been holding himself back for three or four days, and finally he can speak.
If it doesn't work, he's going to send him to the hospital.
Qi Tang said again: "But, but I, I feel so uncomfortable."
He couldn't help panting and choking, resisting the urge to vomit, and then pointed to his heart:
"I'm having a really hard time here."
Before Qi Tang could cry, Zhang Cheng cried first: "Tang, let's stop thinking about it, let's vent our discomfort."
"I won't laugh at you if you cry."
Zhang Cheng put the tissue in front of him: "I'm going to Qingqing's house tonight, you are fine. No one will see you, and the soundproofing here is good, even if you yell loudly, no one will hear you. Don't suppress it."
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Qi Tang, in the dim light, Qi Tang's body was shaking violently.
Zhang Cheng didn't know if he was crying, but he saw Qi Tang bite his arm hard.
After getting his clothes and going out, Zhang Cheng locked the door.
Although Qi Tang's personality is not perfect, he still has to be on the safe side, fearing that people will be overwhelmed and run out, and then hide and no one will find out what to do.
At least he is at home now, so he feels at ease.
No one had a very peaceful night.
When Zhang Cheng went back the next day, Qi Tang lay curled up on the ground and fell asleep.
He sighed, and took a blanket to cover him, but saw a deep tooth mark on Qi Tang's arm.
Zhang Cheng's heart ached.
Why bother, if you really want to torture yourself like this, just go to Lin An and do it for him to see.
He didn't believe that Lin An could remain indifferent.
Even if you have a puppy at home, if it gets cut somewhere, the owner should feel sorry for it.
The simple thing is that although Qi Tang bit her deeply, she didn't break the skin, and the marks should disappear in a few days.
As soon as the blanket fell on Qi Tang's body, his eyelids moved and he woke up.
Zhang Cheng hurriedly said, "Are you awake? What do you want to eat?"
Qi Tang's eyes were scarlet, and he didn't know what he did alone last night to make himself like this.
"Don't eat, I'm going to work in the company."
Zhang Cheng's eyes turned sour: "What shift do you have? I told him about your brother's side, and he told you to rest well."
Qi Tang was silent for a while, but still stood up: "Then I'm going to the studio, hurry up and get ready for the entries."
Anyway, he couldn't stop him, so Zhang Cheng simply let him go, and with Qi Tang in this state, it would be best if he could find something to do, at least to divert his attention.
After tidying up, Qi Tang came out of Zhang Cheng's house and took a taxi.
When he got off the car, before he entered the studio, he saw a person standing under a big tree not far away.
The man's face was full of exhaustion, but his clothes were still noble, but he looked a little indescribably pale.
Qi Tang's heart began to beat violently, and he passed in front of that person pretending that he hadn't seen anything.
He knew that Lin An would definitely come to block him, and he also knew that running away would not solve the problem.
But when he really saw him, he was rejecting that person both physically and psychologically, and his brain quickly gave him instructions to run away.
"Baby." A familiar voice and nickname.
Qi Tang felt deaf for a moment, and even walked slowly.
This gave Lin An an opportunity, he quickly hugged Qi Tang, pushed him against the wall, and trapped him.
"Baby, listen to me, listen to my explanation, please calm down." Lin An frowned.
Qi Tang's chest rose and fell a few times, and he gradually recovered, then looked down at him:
"I'm calm, I just don't want to see you."
Lin An lowered his eyes, and instead of wasting opportunities and time on boring disputes, he went straight to the point and pointed out the core:
"That family rule is true, but it's not like that."
Hearing him take the initiative to mention it, Qi Tang thought of the onlookers and humiliation he suffered at the banquet for nothing, and he felt his head start to hurt again.
"So." He tried to calm down.
He knew that Lin An would not let him go if he didn't listen to the explanation today.
"Our Lin family has a few secrets, which are very shameful and embarrassing, and we don't want outsiders to know." Lin An said slowly.
Both of them calmed down a lot, but it seemed that it was only calm on the surface.
"Because those secrets involve the interests of the entire Lin family, no one in the Lin family will spread them to the outside world."
"But because of this, there is an additional rule - when the younger generation of the Lin family fall in love, they must be brought home for review, screening, and making sure they can reach a community of interests with us, and then they will be accepted."
The wind was a little bit cooler, and the broken hair on Qi Tang's forehead was a little messed up. Lin An pressed his whole body against the wall, and he didn't move at all.
"This has nothing to do with our affairs." Qi Tang said hoarsely.
Lin An was afraid that the pressure would make him uncomfortable, so he relaxed a little, and continued:
"Yes. But the Lin family still has a rule that outsiders don't know about."
"It is absolutely impossible to hand over the inheritance rights of a business to a person who has a same-sex partner."
Qi Tang's chest began to heave slightly again, the anger in his eyes was undisguised:
"So you humiliate me like this because you don't want to lose your status as an heir?"
Lin An shook his head, frowned and said, "Baby, listen to me."
"This rule is because many years ago, my father also had a gay man, but after the other party became a partner with him, he almost emptied the Lin family, so there is such a rule."
"Later, my father's homosexuals were kicked out of the Lin family, and my father went crazy. This is also one of the Lin family's secrets."
Qi Tang frowned slowly, he seemed to understand something.
The Lin family is a family business, so the decency of the heir is the decency of the entire Lin family and the entire enterprise.
And Lin An's father went crazy and became a mental patient, which is extremely disgraceful.
Therefore, if anyone in the Lin family has a partner, they must first take them home and screen them before making them public.
Because once this person's identity as the partner of the Lin family is disclosed, he will be one with the Lin family in the eyes of outsiders. No matter how stupid a person is, he will not do things that harm his own interests.
Lin An's voice continued: "I have been learning to run a company since I was 16 years old, and I have been running the company while going to school. The Wan'an Group has been my painstaking effort for many years."
"Baby, I admit, I'm really selfish, and I can't let go of these painstaking efforts."
Lin An spoke very frankly, because he knew that Qi Tang was an extremely smart person, even if he didn't say it himself, he could still think about it.
So, the best thing to do is to confess to yourself, confess with all your heart, and ask for forgiveness.
But Qi Tang didn't seem to be moved by him, and just looked at him calmly.
Those deep eyes were vaguely cold, as if looking at a stranger.
Lin An's heart ached, his baby clearly didn't look at him like this before.
He grabbed Qi Tang's arm:
"But baby, I didn't think that you would go to the banquet that day, and I didn't think that you would be humiliated by the public."
Qi Tang's voice was also very calm: "Yes, because you humiliated me even deeper."
Lin An was stunned for a moment, with a tired look on his face:
"Baby, it's not that I don't want to disclose you, it's just that it's not the time yet."
"I have already focused on improving Wan'an Group, transforming it from a family business into a general holding company, so that Wan'an will not be restrained and influenced by the Lin family."
"This is a reform. When I succeed, the Lin family business will become history. The rules of the Lin family will also be abolished. Then I will make you public—"
Qi Tang interrupted him suddenly with a smile: "Impossible."
He could see that, after all, Lin An chose power between him and power.
Weigh the pros and cons, what a wonderful word.
Lin An's kindness to him, his love for him, and his affection for him were all tightly controlled by this word.
But Lin An chose to put power ahead of him.
His sincerity, his feelings, and everything about him become worthless in front of material things.
Just like what Qi Ye said, this person may just like him, but not love him.
So when it comes to their own interests, they will abandon him as soon as possible.
The author has something to say:
Although, the car is not overturned yet, and there are still
