fish in cage

Bo Liang's dissatisfaction with He Ling had accumulated to the extreme, so he didn't agree to meet, but just called He Ling back.

He had obviously guessed He Ling's purpose, and without waiting for He Ling to explain his purpose, he said coldly, "You'd better pray that Xiao Heng won't be too sad, otherwise I will never let it go."

He Ling knew that what he did was not very kind, and he was facing the Bai family, so he would not force himself, and his tone was very calm, "Xiao Bai is not willing to separate, if possible, I hope you can personally Persuade him, this time I will definitely tell him clearly, and I won't let him spend his time on people like me."

He even made a small self-deprecating mouth.

Bai Liang sneered, "You don't have to be nice, a person like you is not good enough for my brother."

He Ling didn't feel insulted at all, and followed his words, "You're right, I used to be wishful thinking, the toad wanted to eat swan meat..."

Bai Liang interrupted him, "I'll see you downstairs at 07:30 tonight."

He Ling didn't expect Bo Liang to be so anxious, thinking about it, he really couldn't stand Bai Heng staying by his side for another day, he said hello, and the phone was hung up.

He stood silently in the safe passage for a long time, and when his colleague came out to smoke between work, he was shocked to see him.

He Ling should feel relieved after solving a major matter that weighed on his heart, but his chest is a little stuffy. He basically doesn't smoke, but he needs a vent to drive out his inner depression, so he said to his colleagues, "Give me one."

The colleague handed him the cigarette and lighter, and asked curiously, "Aren't you a non-smoker?"

He Ling leaned against the wall, and slowly put the cigarette holder to his lips, with a sizzling sound, the blue-green flame jumped, he lowered his head slightly to light the cigarette, and then raised his eyes and said vaguely, "Annoying."

He couldn't say what was bothering him specifically, he couldn't be unhappy because he called himself a toad, and even if it was a toad, he was the prettiest one, he laughed dryly at his own thoughts.

He Ling couldn't get enough of his cigarettes, and the nicotine ran around in his mouth and spit it out leisurely. In the curling white mist, his face became a little hazy, and when the smoke cleared, his eyes gradually became clear.

Now that the decision has been made, it would be too hypocritical to hurt the spring and the autumn hypocritically.

He Ling quickly adjusted, put the half-smoked cigarette butts in the nearby trash can, then opened the heavy iron door, and continued to work like a normal person.

grumbling-

The constant sound from the kettle reminded that the water was boiling, so Bai Heng walked over and poured all the boiling water into the glass jug to wait for it to cool down.

He Ling doesn't like to drink hot water, so Bai Heng often prepares cold water at home, so He Ling doesn't have to wait.

He happily took care of his and He Ling's small home, as if demonstrating life after marriage.

Bai Heng thought that one day he would be able to marry He Ling, so the corners of his lips unconsciously pursed into a soft smile.

Because of Qi Shuqiao's matter last night, he thought that He Ling would continue the cold war with him, but he didn't expect that He Ling would not pursue it anymore, and he was even so enthusiastic, and the faint hostility in his heart disappeared under He Ling's gentle touch Exhausted.

Bai Heng put down the hot water bottle, stared at his left hand which was tightly wrapped in bandages, and was slightly lost in thought.

It would be great if there weren't so many annoying flies around He Ling.

It would be great if He Ling could stay with him 24 hours a day.

It would be great if He Ling could stay at home all the time.

The more he thought about it, the more he even fantasized that He Ling would become a fish raised in a glass tank, swimming from one end to the other with its tail waving, and all the movements could be seen at a glance.

A fish out of water doesn't live long, and he doesn't have to worry that the fish will leave his world.

He wanted to do this very much, after He Ling cheated him again and again, after He Ling was ambiguous with others again and again, but he liked He Ling so much, he couldn't bear He Ling to be angry, so he could only try his best to suppress his inner thoughts.

He Ling should go home later.

Bai Heng paced into the bedroom, opened the closet, and took out the bottom box that hadn't been seen for a while.

With a blushing face, he took out the black and white maid outfit from the box and placed it on the bed, recalling He Ling's expression that night, mixed with tenderness and doting, and with infinite love, as if he was He Ling's most beloved person , there is no second person who can fall into He Ling's eyes - only at this time He Ling will look at him with satisfaction.

He doesn't like wearing skirts, but if He Ling can only look at him, he is willing to do so.

Bai Heng bit his lip and hugged the layers of skirts, took out his mobile phone to send a message to He Ling, even the words were soft, "When are you coming back?"

Two minutes later, he received a reply from He Ling, "2:07, wait for me at home."

This was the first time that He Ling gave him the exact time to go home after the year, and it was also the first time that he came home so early. Bai Heng hugged his skirt tightly, his eyes brightened with joy.

-

It was getting dark quickly in late winter and early spring, and when He Ling arrived downstairs in the community at seven o'clock, the crescent moon was already hanging in the sky.

He looked up, the lights were on on the seventh floor, Bai Heng was waiting for him to go home.

There was a big black Mercedes parked not far away, and He Ling let out a mouthful of foul air, stepped forward and lightly knocked on the window of the passenger seat twice.

The car window was rolled down, it was Bo Liang, and Bo Hong also came, sitting in the back seat, beside her was a middle-aged man, because of the light problem, He Ling couldn't see his facial features clearly.

After a few people got out of the car, He Ling realized that the middle-aged man's features were somewhat similar to Bo Liang's. He was startled, and quickly guessed that the identity of the man was Bo Heng's father.

Father Bai's face was serious, and he was very majestic just looking at it with a sullen face. When He Ling glanced at him, he felt full of oppression.

Bai Hong asked, "Where is Xiao Heng?"

"He's upstairs." With so many big Buddhas in front of him, He Ling's pressure doubled, and he added, "He didn't know you were here yet."

Father Bai's happiness and anger were invisible, and he couldn't tell what emotion he was at the moment, but he just asked Bai Liang, "Let everyone follow."

He Ling was at a loss, and Bai Liang hesitated, "Dad, Xiao Heng is not a child anymore, is this inappropriate?"

"Is it okay to let my son of Baishan be played by someone?"

He Ling's heart beat hard.

Bai Hong is not as easy to get along with as she looked at the previous few times, "Listen to your father."

Bai Liang glanced at He Ling casually, then raised his hand, and a commercial vehicle parked in the distance immediately got off four tall and strong men in black suits, who should be the bodyguards of the Bai family.

He Ling realized that they were determined to take Bai Heng away today, if they were soft, they would be tough. He knew that he had no position to speak up, but after all he couldn't bear the gentle and soft Bai Heng being taken away by force, so he just wanted to say something to dissuade him , Bo Liang winked at him, motioning him not to speak.

Bai Shan represents the absolute authority in the Bai family, and he says what he says. He has been in the business circle for many years and he has a hard heart, and he is merciless in dealing with people. It will never end well.

He Ling knew that Bo Liang was kindly reminding him, so after thinking about it, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

It's already reached this level, no matter how good he is, no one will accept his love, and it will make people think that he is extremely hypocritical.

The group went up to the seventh floor in two elevators.

From the beginning to the end, Baishan didn't bother to look at He Ling, but Bai Hong, because He Ling abducted her well-behaved little nephew, secretly stared at He Ling several times.

"Open the door." Bai Liang said.

He Ling was so decisive, as long as he opened this door, he and Bai Heng would have no turning back.

But he just hesitated for two seconds before turning the key and opening the door.

The living room was empty and there was no sign of Bai Heng, so He Ling said, "Come in, I'll call Xiao Bai."

Several members of the Bai family followed He Ling into the house. He Ling walked to the living room and heard the sound of the door opening. When he raised his eyes and saw the person standing in the living room, his whole body was shocked, the blush on his face faded completely, and turned pale in an instant.

He Ling froze on the spot, his pupils shrank suddenly and looked at Bai Heng who was wearing a black and white maid outfit a few steps away.

Bai Heng seemed unable to cope with this sudden situation, he was as embarrassed as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into the street, his face was bloodless, and he stood there blankly.

The room was full of silence. The Bai family never expected that Bai Heng, whom he had cared for and cared for since childhood, would appear in front of them with such a dignified appearance. His expression was as if he had seen a ghost. , the muscles on his forehead were also beating faintly at this time, obviously angry.

He Ling was the first to react, and quickly walked up and pushed Bai Heng into the bedroom. Because he was too shocked, he spoke slightly trembling, "Go in and change your clothes before coming out."

Bai Heng clenched his fists tightly, and when he closed the door, he met Bai Heng's eyes looking at him, it was the extreme pain of being betrayed by his beloved.

He didn't expect that Bai Heng would dress like this and wait for him at home, and he didn't want to embarrass Bai Heng in front of his family.

He Ling shook the doorknob firmly, forced himself to calm down, turned around to face the anger of the Bai family, walked forward, and said sincerely, "Mr. Bai, are you... "

Before the apology was finished, Bai Shan slapped He Ling furiously.

Being slapped was extremely humiliating, but He Ling endured it forcefully, and even endured the burning pain on his cheek, and continued, "I'm sorry."

Bai Hong was no longer elegant, and raised her voice, "That's what you did to Xiao Heng. You know who he is, and you dare to let him dress like this. He Ling, you are too deceitful!"

Even Bai Liang, who has always been rational and paramount, now has a face full of anger.

He Ling knew that no matter how much he explained, he could not appease the Bai family's anger, so he accepted the anger silently. In fact, he still hasn't come out of the shock just now.

Of course he knew the reason why Bai Heng did this, it was nothing more than to please him, but he let Bai Heng, who was looking forward to his return home, experience such a shameless thing.

For the first time in He Ling's life, he regretted his choice. He shouldn't use such an extreme method to draw a line with Bai Heng.

But the matter has come to this point, it is useless for him to regret it, he can only wait for Bai Heng to come out and face it.

After about five or six minutes, the closed bedroom door finally opened, and a pale-faced Bai Heng came out.

In just this short period of time, he had already guessed the reason why his family members appeared here. He felt that he was the most ridiculous person in the world. After he tried every means to mend the relationship between him and He Ling, he even put down his body to please He Ling. At the same time, He Ling was thinking about how to kick him off as soon as possible.

He Ling even kissed him in the morning.

The pain was so extreme that Bai Heng couldn't cry anymore.

He thought of the quarrel with his elder brother, he remembered that he swore that He Ling liked him, he remembered that he ran into the heavy rain without hesitation, he remembered the deafening sentence of his elder brother - I will wait for the day when you regret it.

He liked He Ling so much that he didn't even need to give up his dignity. He thought he wouldn't regret it, but He Ling made him a complete joke.

Bai Heng was too confused.

Before everyone could react, Bai Heng slammed He Ling against the wall, his eyes were red, but he didn't cry, he just asked He Ling in a hoarse voice, "Didn't you say you like me?"

Is this what you like?

He Ling bumped his head against the wall, and with a hum, he heard his own heartbeat beating like a drum, and it was louder and louder, which made it hard for him to even think.

It took a while before he remembered the purpose of this farce. He endured the pain and said, "I like you, but it's impossible to only like you."

Bai Heng's beautiful facial features were slightly distorted.

His voice trembled slightly, "Xiaobai, you misread the person, I'm sorry, go back with your family."

Bai Heng's hand on his shoulder was shaking violently, his voice was like a torn cloth, hoarse and unpleasant, "Why did you treat me like this, He Ling, why?"

Bo Liang couldn't see it anymore, stepped forward and pulled Bai Heng away, and scolded, "Come home with me."

Bai Heng staggered two steps before standing still, he rushed forward again, and asked He Ling stubbornly, "Tell me why, aren't you the most eloquent, tell me."

Bai Heng in front of him was like a wild beast out of control, He Ling was short of breath and couldn't speak a word.

Bai Shan ordered, "Take it away."

Upon hearing the instructions, the four bodyguards forcefully broke away Bai Heng's hand holding He Ling.

Bai Heng was crying without dignity, his eyes were full of tears, he insisted on an answer, and growled, "He Ling, what did I do wrong, you want to treat me like this?"

He Ling's heart seemed to be pulled out and thrown into the lake, and it kept sinking to the bottom of the lake.

His eye circles were hot, he couldn't bear Bai Heng being roughly pulled, and wanted to step forward to hug Bai Heng, but he had already lost his qualification.

snap-

Bai Hong looked at her hands in disbelief, this was the first time she had touched Bai Heng in 21 years.

Bai Heng was slapped by her to calm down.

"Xiaoheng," she choked up, "you make my aunt very sad."

Bai Heng raised his teary eyes, as if all his strength had been drained, and he couldn't move anymore.

The bodyguard took advantage of the situation to arrest him, and Bai Shan gave the extremely embarrassed Bai Heng a cold look, "How can I, Bai Shan, have such an embarrassing son like you?"

Bai Heng clenched his fists in pain, and was dragged out completely.

His eyes reddened by tears kept staring at He Ling, the past dependence and love were no longer there, only deep pain.

The room was full of chaos, and He Ling leaned against the wall with weak legs.

Bai Liang said coldly, "From now on, if you dare to have anything to do with Xiao Heng, don't blame me for being merciless."

The room fell silent.

It took He Ling a long time to come back to his senses, he moved slowly to the sofa and sat down, his mind was filled with the eyes that Bai Heng looked at him last, so sad and painful, he seemed to be able to sense Bai Heng's pain, and his hands couldn't control it She trembled slightly, and finally closed her hot eyes in a slump.

After all, it ended in embarrassment.
