After we broke up, I still asked about your situation

The car drove out of the parking lot, and the two had nothing to say for a long time.

When encountering a red light, Tu Jiazhi stopped the car, looked ahead and asked nervously, "Just now... did you hear that?"

"Yeah." Tong Shen held his hand reassuringly, and said with a smile, "He is talking nonsense like a dog jumping over the wall, don't take it to heart."

Tu Jiazhi opened his mouth, wanting to say that he was actually afraid that he would hear his eccentric words, but then he thought that he would take the initiative to comfort him, so he probably didn't care, so he just shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

"That's good." Tong Shen withdrew his hand and turned his head to look out the window.

The school district room was almost vacated before, and all the things that were not easy to move were put away. The furniture was covered with dust-proof cloth, so it was not suitable for overnight stay.The two simply had a meal together, and went to a nearby hotel to rest at night.

The next day, Tong Shenfei wanted to drag Tu Jiazhi to transfer the real estate. Tu Jiazhi didn't want to have an argument with him because of this kind of thing.

After finishing this matter, a big stone finally fell in Tong Shen's heart.

But there was another thing that stuck in his throat, making him restless day and night.

Hearing the conversation between Zhang Ping and Tu Jiazhi that day, he acted very indifferent on the surface, but in fact he couldn't sleep well for several days, and the nightmares he had at night were all related to that incident.

Zhang Ping accused him and Tu Jiazhi of actually getting together a long time ago.

Tong Shen has been trying his best to avoid this matter, but even if he covers his ears, he can see some things with his eyes and feel them from his heart.

He knew that not only Zhang Ping thought so, it should be said that almost everyone thought so.

Everyone suspected that there was something tricky between him and Tu Jiazhi very early on.

Even he himself would have such thoughts.

He didn't know exactly when Tu Jiazhi turned sour towards him, but it must have been at an age he couldn't accept.

And he bears all responsibility for it.

When he agreed to Tu Jiazhi back then, it was a mess, because he was too scared, so he didn't dare to sort it out, and deceived himself to find a reason of "what can I do if the child insists on doing this?" .

He originally thought that he could ignore the rumors from the outside world, but when he heard Zhang Ping say that Tu Jiazhi was "seduced", he suddenly felt an unbearable anger and powerlessness.

He can accept being scolded by others. Anyway, he has not been scolded less since he was a child. It doesn't hurt at all to put the name of ignorance and nonsense on his head.

But Tu Jiazhi is different.

Tu Jiazhi has never been slandered like this.

He worked hard since he was a child, and finally got to where he is today. How could he suffer such slander?

During this period, Tong Shen was reflecting on himself almost every day, and he could only come to one conclusion each time, which was to stop the loss in time.

But he really didn't know how to say no to Tu Jiazhi.

Especially now that they have all been involved.

In his short life of more than 20 years, Shu Bai and Tu Jiazhi were the biggest setbacks that Tong Shen encountered, which were far beyond his ability to handle.

How could he know how to be responsible for other people's lives when he even lived his own life in a mess?

Raising Tu Jiazhi well to the university is the result of his exhausting brains. Because he didn't know how to arrange the future, he originally planned to introduce the child to his family, hoping that the parents at home could help him out. idea.

...But now that he is like this, he really has no face to explain what kind of shit he has done.

Because of being really confused, Tong Shen has been living in a daze every day recently, and after going through it for a while, it finally came to his usual time to visit Shu Bai.

Ever since he returned to Beijing and Shanghai, it has become difficult for him to visit Shu Bai. Other things are fine, the main reason is that he is worried that Tu Jiazhi will find out if he has been away for too long. I really can't tell.

Visiting hours are regular, so sometimes he can find reasons such as business trips to leave openly, and sometimes he can only sneak away to avoid being noticed by Tu Jiazhi.

When he left last time, he found a reason for an old classmate to get married and went back to Yangning. This time he looked at Tu Jiazhi's class schedule and found that the class was full that day, so he planned to go there quietly. He set off in the morning and came back in the afternoon. The probability of being discovered should be very high. Small.

After making up his mind, Tong Shen booked the air ticket in advance. As soon as Tu Jiazhi went out that day, he immediately got up to pack his things, and dug out the suit from the box at the bottom of the wardrobe in the master bedroom.

He never wears a suit. He cleaned up his assets when Yang Ning left. He originally said that he didn't want anything in the villa. Tu Jiazhi thought he was a waste, so he took the initiative to go to the villa to help him tidy up. When he saw a suit in his closet, he asked A few words.

Tong Shen was guilty at first, and when he was asked so unexpectedly, he panicked and didn't think of any good solution, so he lied and said that Du Zijie had forgotten those things here, then turned around and called Du Zijie who was in a daze to take them away. suit.

It was only later that he realized how stupid this reason was, because it meant that he really didn't need a suit at all, and it would look weird if he bought another suit.

If it's someone else, it's fine to be fooled, but Tu Jiazhi is not so easy to be fooled, he has to get to the bottom of it.

So after returning to Beijing and Shanghai, he kept the new suit he bought, and he had to quietly take it out of the suit box every time before visiting Shu Bai.

In fact, he could have just bought a new suit, which is what he did in the first place.

But when he visited Shu Bai once, Shu Bai asked him casually: "I don't usually see you wearing a suit, why do I wear a suit every time I visit now? And it's a different style every time - this suit is quite expensive, right? In fact, you don't need to dress up specially to meet me, just dress casually."

He does not mean that.

Although Shu Bai may not have any overtones, Tong Shen couldn't help but think about it.

He will feel ashamed.

Shu Bai was imprisoned because of him, but he ate and drank and had fun outside, and even changed into expensive suits one after another when he visited, which was somewhat shameless.

So since then he just bought a cheap suit and wore it repeatedly.

I never thought that I could really wear it casually like Shu Bai said.

For him, every visit to Shu Bai is an interrogation of himself, and he must dress formally and have a good appearance in order to show his attitude.

After all, he can only express his attitude, and can't do anything else.

The suit was a little wrinkled when it was taken out of the box, so Tong Shen took it to a nearby dry cleaner to have it ironed and smoothed before changing it.

The plane in the morning arrived in the afternoon, and Tong Shen didn't have time to eat. After the visit, he hurried back. He ate a small bun on the plane and fell back without any appetite. He closed his eyes and thought about Shu Bai. if.

Shu Bai said that his application for commutation of sentence has been approved, and he can be released from prison seven months in advance. When he applied for it before, he was worried that he would not be able to pass it, so he didn't mention it to him. Only when he got the result did he tell him the good news.

Originally Shu Bai was released from prison at the end of this year, minus seven months, which means that he will be released from prison in about two months.

Hearing the news, Tong Shen's first reaction was of course happy, but after calming down, he began to worry about how to deal with his relationship with Tu Jiazhi.

Two months doesn't seem short, but it still doesn't seem to be enough for him to sort things out.

In addition to Tu Jiazhi's relationship with him, he also had to make plans for Shu Bai's life after he was released from prison, and to consider this, he had to inform his family.

Shu Bai's academic qualifications are not bad. If it weren't for his influence, Shu Bai would probably be able to develop very well now, so it is impossible for him to find any position to deal with it.

But for a slightly better job, his own personal relationship is not enough, and it has to be the family relationship to be effective.However, as long as he uses his identity as the youngest son of the Tong family, it is estimated that before he hangs up the phone on this side, the phone number to send messages to his parents has already been connected.

There is also the Shu Bai incident that needs to be explained clearly to Tu Jiazhi in advance. Since the death of his relatives, Tu Jiazhi has always hated his brother. Now that Shu Bai is about to be released from prison, it is impossible for Tong Shen to let Tu Jiazhi go to see his brother with a straight face. He has to think well first. Work.

... There are a lot of things waiting for him to solve, but everything makes it difficult for him to talk about it.

After a few hours on the plane, Tong Shen was stunned and couldn't think of anything.

He returned home exhausted, opened the door, and found that the light was on in the house.

It's not yet seven o'clock, and Tu Jiazhi has classes in the evening, so logically speaking, he shouldn't be going home at this time.

Tong Shen hesitated for a few seconds, turned his head and wanted to go out and find a place to get rid of the suit in the suitcase.

It's a pity that Tu Jiazhi had already heard the commotion here, came over and saw that he was about to leave, and asked coldly, "Where are you going?"

It is no exaggeration to say that Tong Shen was not as flustered as he is now when he was confessed by Tu Jiazhi.

His mind went blank, and his whole body felt cold for a moment.

"...What's wrong?" Tu Jiazhi thought that his tone had frightened him, so he quickly softened his tone and came over to pull him, "You...why are your hands so cold?"

Tong Shen's thoughts were confused, and he was completely unprepared to confess to Tu Jiazhi, so he subconsciously lied: "I, I was blowing outside...it's a bit cold."

"Then come in?" Tu Jiazhi dragged him into the room, and helped him lift the suitcase, "Where did this go? Why is there still a suitcase?"

"I……"

"Let's talk about it later." Tu Jiazhi knelt down and put the shoes in front of him, "Seeing that you look tired, go take a bath first, it will make you feel more comfortable, come out for dinner later, and I will pack your luggage for you."

"Don't..." Tong Shen hurriedly grabbed the handle of the suitcase, "You, you go and help me drain the water, I will pack things myself..."

"I'll help you drain the water and clean up for you." Tu Jiazhi kissed him on the face, "Go and change, it will be fine soon."

"..."

The more comprehensive he was, the more guilty Tong Shen felt.But it will be a matter of time before Tu Jiazhi discovers the contents of the box, not to mention that he has been away for so long today and there is no way to explain it... Now he can only take one step at a time.

After running around all day and barely eating anything, Tong Shen was indeed exhausted.Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the bath to sort out my thoughts, but I fell asleep again without knowing it.

Fortunately, he woke up without waiting for Tu Jiazhi to come in and call. After seeing that half an hour had passed, he quickly got up to wipe the water and change his clothes.

Leaving the bathroom, he saw Tu Jiazhi sitting at the end of the bed, in front of him was an open suitcase, which contained the suit he just wore today.

Seeing Tu Jiazhi raised his eyes, Tong Shen looked at him with a wry smile, and said to himself, okay, now there is no need to worry.

God helped him make a choice, and now he has to confess in front of Tu Jiazhi first.
