Substitute Shadow God Ascension Project

The other side is a deserted wilderness road, and even the basic facilities such as street lights for night lighting are not installed, let alone cameras that can record the whole incident, or passers-by who are expected to provide clues.

Later, after the police arrived, they also carried out a large-scale carpet search, but it was easy for such a well-prepared gangster to escape in a short time. In short, after their investigation failed, they regretted that it was difficult to solve the case, but They will not give up. If you have any clues, please report them immediately.

If it is said that the two emotions of distressing him for being injured for no reason and resentment at not being able to bring the gangster to justice accounted for more than half of it, then the rest reminded Zhou Chao of the name he called before he fell asleep and the situation he encountered. The first call to make when in danger.

When he received Zhou Yi's call, he was preparing to rush home full of joy. One second he wondered why his phone was always busy, and the next second his brother answered his question.

——"Brother, Xiang Ran seems to have an accident. He called Xiao Yan and didn't speak. We vaguely heard something wrong from the phone. We have already called the police, but we are out of town now and can't get to the scene. You should contact the police immediately."

At that time, he suddenly fell into a fear that he had never experienced before. He picked up the phone tremblingly, his voice trembling and indistinct, so that he had to repeat it several times to fully express his meaning.

When he learned that the police were making no progress, he suddenly snarled and asked why their efficiency was so low.

The boiling tension and fear made him unable to think calmly. He suddenly raised his arm, opened his mouth and bit, the sharp teeth pierced the skin, and the pain brought back a trace of clarity. During this period, whenever the panic of extinction would overwhelm him, he would continue to bite the festering wound, and the pain would keep him awake.

In the end, a friend of his in the communications industry helped locate the location of the mobile phone and successfully rescued him.

In the middle of the night, the light in the ward softly shone on the arm, and the large and deep tooth-mark wound looked even more shocking.

He stared at the wound, and gradually revealed a helpless wry smile.

The situation was urgent, and he could not distract himself from his thoughts at all.Now that the dust has settled, the quiet space and ample time allow him to recall slowly—these days, the person in front of him is just pretending to him, and the place in his heart has long been taken up by another person. There was not an inch to accommodate him.

The ridiculous thing is that so many days of mutual affection once gave him the illusion that they really love each other and are in love with each other.

He must have been bewitched by his perfectly packaged sincerity, and he had completely forgotten the agreement between the two of them; perhaps, he was also immersed in the dream he wove, believing that his warmth was From the bottom of my heart, never or dare not go into it.

However, the truth was caught off guard in front of him like this, and he couldn't allow him to lie to his ears any longer.

"What should I do with you?"

Difficult voices ooze from the quiet ward late at night.And the only answer to him was the silence and the faint sound of walking outside the ward.

"You must be very tired!"

After a long while, he spoke again, and unconsciously held one of his hands with both hands and looked at it carefully.

A few scratches were extremely conspicuous on the fair skin, and he slowly pressed a kiss on the scarred hand.

"I'm tired too."

"You see we are even in the same state of mind, we are really a match made in heaven."

"You can't let go of him so much, but he has already let you go. You wait where you are, and he has already flown into someone else's arms."

"Then you wait for me where you are, okay? I'll fly over to find you."

"Do you know that you scared me to death today. If something really happened to you, I really want to go there with you. Don't believe me, this idea really came up."

"Now that you are healthy and healthy, I am very satisfied, how can I be greedy for more."

"My requirements are very low, as long as I can stand side by side with you, even if you don't make room for me, I don't mind."

He babbled on non-stop, as if he was talking to the person on the bed, but also as if he was talking to himself.

70

In the early morning of the next day, Xiang Ran, who had been in a coma all night, slowly opened his eyes, his slack eyesight gradually focused, and a familiar figure stood in front of him, staring down at him with an incomprehensible expression.Before the fast-running brain could interpret this abnormality, the corners of his mouth were raised first, and a habitual smile appeared.

But this subconscious smile caused Zhou Chao, who was standing in front of the bed to look at him carefully, to frown slightly, and his eyes looked straight down, as if he wanted to see through his body and see the cruel heart in the deepest part of his heart. the truth.

After a while, he reached out and touched his cheek, and said softly, "Stop laughing."

The coldness coming from his fingers made Xiang Ran shrink back under the quilt. He was surprised, but his smile did not diminish at all.

As if just saying it casually, Zhou Chao didn't insist, turned around and asked him what he would like to eat.

The topic then diverged.

In the evening, both Yan Yan and Zhou Yi came to visit.

At that time, Xiang Ran had just finished changing his medicine, but the unbearable pain all over his body dissipated the moment he saw Yan Yan, and he smiled at him from the bottom of his heart.

His eyes were focused on Yan Yan, and he didn't notice at all that there was an expression of unwillingness, jealousy, and pain on the face of Zhou Chao who had a panoramic view of everything just one step away from him.

Later Zhou Yi dragged his brother aside to chat, Yan Yan sat by the bed and started chattering.

"Xiang Ran, you really scared me to death. When you called me, I happened to go home and was not in this city. I was terrified at the time, and I didn't know what to do. Zhouyi reported it in a hurry Police, contacted his brother. It’s okay, it’s just some skin trauma. Hey, I heard from Zhou Yi that his brother helped a lot..."

These Xuxu words had no meaning at all, but Xiang Ran, who was listening carefully with a smile on his face, frowned, and some images flashed through his mind - the phone call he subconsciously made when danger approached; The name called out in the warm embrace.These memories that were almost forgotten by him are picked up now, and a series of unexplained conversations when he woke up in the morning came to a conclusion that made him shudder.

——Zhou Chao is angry!

This is not the kind of anger that can be easily dissipated by showing a ferocious face and reciprocating with fists and feet; it is the kind of anger that is calm on the outside but hard to calm on the inside, and you will not know at what moment and in what way you will do so Pay the bill.

Thinking of this, Xiang Ran anxiously turned his head to look at Zhou Chao, and almost at the same time, the latter glanced over inadvertently.The moment their eyes collided, Xiang Ran's heart was clenched.Zhou Chao looked at him for a while, his expression seemed to be faintly happy, and finally he smiled reassuringly at him, and looked away.

After Yan Yan Zhouyi left, the ward remained silent for a long time.Zhou Chao was leaning over his desk, with a small orange light on, and kept typing on the keyboard on his laptop.

Xiang Ran felt uneasy, and glanced at Zhou Chao from time to time, his movements were too frequent to be ignored. In the end, Zhou Chao had to put down his work, strode over, and leaned down to ask him what was wrong.

In order to let him fall asleep with peace of mind, Zhou Chao turned off the headlights in the house, and only kept a desk lamp on next to the laptop.

The warm orange light couldn't reach the bedside at all, and the two looked at each other in the dark, and each other's breathing could be heard clearly.

"Is it too painful to sleep?" Zhou Chao asked.

His voice is very soft.Because of the lack of light, Xiang Ran couldn't see the expression on his face, but the words fell into his ears, making him feel the deep concern beyond words.

"Why don't you talk?" Zhou Chao was in a hurry, and the next moment, he wanted to reach out and touch his forehead.

Xiang Ran took out his hand from under the quilt, slid it down his arm to his hand, and held his hand, cold to the touch.He wanted to ask about Xiaobai's situation, but when the words came to his lips, it turned into a sigh that he didn't expect, "Your hands are so cold."

In the dark, Zhou Chao smiled, withdrew his palm, pressed his arm back into the quilt, and tucked the corners of the quilt tightly again.

"How is Xiaobai?" Xiang Ran moved his shoulders, leaving a gap in the overly tight quilt.

"He only had a few bruises on his body, and he went home after taking the medicine. Don't worry."

Hearing this, Xiang Ran understood, he knew in his heart that Xiaobai should be fine, and at this moment, besides seeking proof, he wanted to ease the embarrassment of being speechless. He thought for a while, and then said, "Don't blame Xiaobai. , I insisted on taking that path, this matter has nothing to do with him, and if he hadn't struggled hard to buy time to escape, I don't know what we ended up in."

After he finished his last syllable, the room once again fell into silent silence.

Xiang Ran watched him change from leaning over to sitting on the edge of the bed, but his eyes never left.After a while, he heard Zhou Yi say something softly.

It took him a long time to react before he was convinced that he had just heard "I'm sorry." There were only three words, but they seemed to be squeezed out abruptly, appearing difficult and difficult.

Xiang Ran was confused: why did he apologize?Shouldn't it be me who should apologize?Wasn't he actually angry?It's all because he thinks too much. In fact, he really feels guilty and sorry for himself?

Xiang Ran kept asking questions in his heart, but he didn't want to know the answer at all. He only felt a dull pain in the wound on his forehead, and even his head began to ache.

"I'll send you two bodyguards when you go out in the future." Xu Jiuzhi
