Xia Qu had been sad and exhausted for a long time after the battle, and the only thing that could make him happy was Tang Tan who would come to find him on weekends.

As before, he leaned against the window, waiting for Tang Tan's familiar figure to appear, and then smiled and called himself to go down.

The clock was running slowly, and the distance of the pointer gradually deviated from the original time, Xia Qu began to panic.

The more he waited, the more anxious he became, pacing and pacing by the window, repeating, as if an unknown fire was burning in his mind.

He was worried that something happened to Tang Tan.

Soon, several hours passed, and Tang Tan didn't show up, not even a message.

Xia Qu was ready to go find him, at least to make sure that nothing happened to him.

Jumping down, Xia Qu went all the way to the security room smoothly, but the guard was sitting there securely, completely useless.

Look at hiding in the bushes behind, and managed to catch the doorman leaving when he was about to leave, but he was caught.

"Master Xia, Master Xia told me to stop you at all costs, otherwise I will be complained of losing my job. Please understand me."

If he was the former Xia Qu, he would have retreated from such a righteous refusal, but at this moment, he only had the tragedy of Tang Tan's accident in his mind, and he couldn't care about anything else.

He tried his best to escape from the control of the security guards, spread his legs and rushed, just in time to stop a passing taxi, and quickly got in, including the people and the car, and disappeared in an instant.

Only the guard stood there with a troubled expression on his face.

Xia Qu came to the place he was thinking of, where the two doors were closed, and there was a faint dim light coming through the inner cat's eye.

He was sure there was someone inside.

First, he knocked on the door cautiously, for fear of disturbing the rest of the opposite family...

No echo.

Then he began to knock on the door eagerly, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger...

No echo.

In the end, the door was almost smashed. If the door was not opened again, Xia Qu's hand would probably be crippled because of it, and the loud sound spread throughout the building...

Still no reply.

Xia Qu's strong spirit collapsed into a pool of debris at this moment, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get it back together.

He lost his strength and knelt down on the ground, with his hands pressed against the door, his fingers digging, and his head resting on his knees, sobbing in a muffled voice, which made people feel so distressed that they trembled.

The inner door finally opened amidst his low cries, and the glaring white light shone on him.

Lifting his head quickly, Tang Qin appeared in sight safe and sound.

He felt a moment of relief.

But then came more intense sadness, complaining in his heart, he didn't come to him even though nothing happened, not even an apology or explanation.

Soon, he found that the person who opened the door seemed to be filled with a sense of strangeness.

A more intense coldness hit his face, and it hurt him a lot.

He finally realized that the Tang Tan reflected in his eyes at this moment was different from before - when he faced himself, there was no smile on his face.

The pain from the heart veins spread to every nerve in the body, Xia Qu felt as if he had died and lost his ability to perceive the outside world.

Seeing that Tang Tan didn't intend to open the outer door at all, he just stood so stubbornly behind the door, feeling even more desperate.

After a stalemate for an unknown amount of time, Xia Qu left disheartened without asking anything.

Tang Tan behind the door just watched Xia Qu disappear.

However, Xia Qu, who was in a broken mood, did not see Tang Qin's hands clenched at the corners of his clothes, sweating and trembling in the dark corridor.

Tang Qin wanted to rush out to pull Xia Qu into his arms countless times, wanted to kiss him desperately to wipe away all his tears, wanted to warm him with his own body temperature, and explained everything to him.

But what can be explained?

I can't do this myself, not now, and even less in the future.

Xia Qu couldn't describe his mood at this moment, it was like a swaying candle in the wind was suddenly hit by a merciless hurricane, blowing away the last bit of light that he was desperately insisting on burning.

Xia Qu's tears didn't stop until he ran back to his room, this was the weakest time he had cried so far.

He was reported to Xia Su by the guard early on when he went out, and Xia Su had already prepared all the punishments until Xia Qu came back.

But seeing his son who was crying so hard, the whip in Xia Su's hand did not drop after all. He lingered at his door for a long time, his facial features all twisted into a ball, and finally stomped hard and left.

When all the waiters saw such a young master, they also felt distressed. From time to time, a maid took the initiative to deliver warm water and towels, and then came out to whisper about Xia Qu's situation to everyone, and everyone would sigh together.

Finally, they joined forces to ask the mistress, Su Qing, to come forward to comfort Xia Qu, after all, he hadn't even drank any water for three whole days.

"Son, I said that you must protect yourself. If you had listened to your father for the first time back then, you wouldn't have been distracted by a bastard like Tang Qin." Su Qing saw that her face was pale, her lips were chapped The bloody Xia Qu said helplessly.

Xia Qu, whose mind was in chaos, seemed to have grasped some life-saving straw suddenly, and his eyes suddenly flickered.

"Mother, how do you know that I am like this because I was entertained by Tang Qin? Do you know something?"

Grasping the crux of the problem, Xia Qu switched to the image of the much-anticipated school bully again.

Su Qing couldn't bear it, she and Xia Su had carried this secret together for too long, maybe now is the most appropriate time to tell Xia Qu about it.

The bedroom door was gently closed, and only a few unclear words could be heard outside the door.

After a long time, the door finally opened.

Xia Qu who came out from inside seemed to have regained some consciousness, but he seemed even more lost, his eyes were empty.

Just now, he finally knew the reason why his father got angry several times because of Tang Tan, he also knew why the whole family was targeting him and him, and he also knew why Tang Tan was treating him like this.

Because there is a sea of ​​blood between them.

Not knowing what to do next, Xia Qu took a few mouthfuls of food and went back to the room, slumped on the bed, Tang Tan's breathing was still in front of his ears, but the relationship suddenly became so irreversible.

Tang Tan there was no more comfortable than Xia Qu, and he tried his best not to look for him. He didn't have any other thoughts to comfort himself, so he stuffed himself in the pillow, and Qin Liang didn't answer many calls.

The shock of the incident put the relationship suddenly in jeopardy.

They tacitly decided to calm down, but the duration is unknown.

The time of pain and loneliness is even longer.

In the end it was Xia Qu, he was going to take the initiative to find Tang Tan again, try to save Tang Tan if he had the chance, and say goodbye if he didn't have the chance, they were still classmates.

He picked a time when he knew Tang Tan would be at home and came to the door, and then he rang the doorbell, and the door opened.

It was the first time in a long time that they stood face to face.

There was no complaining, no cursing, no quarreling, much less crying, everything was incredibly peaceful.

It's like two high-tech machines colliding, rigid and forbearing.

Tang Tan lost the smile on his face, and the ring on Xia Qu's hand disappeared.
