Goldberg Variations

After dialing 110 and briefly explaining the incident, the operator told Pei Wen that the police had sent someone over and hoped that he could protect himself and they would arrive as soon as possible.

Pei Wen thanked him, his voice still trembling uncontrollably.

Fan Lei next door was taking a lunch break when he was awakened by the loud noise and got up in a daze to check.

"Pei Wen? What happened?"

He saw Pei Wen standing in the corridor with a pale face, as if something had happened.

"So-and-so wanted to rape him", Pei Wen couldn't say such words.

"It's okay." He forced a smile, "I just... had a nightmare, and then I accidentally knocked over the flowerpot."

"Go ahead and rest, there are rehearsals in the afternoon."

"Nightmare?" Fan Lei laughed, "What's the big deal, then I'll continue to sleep, you have a good rest."

Fan Lei had always been nervous and drowsy, so he didn't even think about it, and continued to rest after entering the room.

In the lounge, Hou Xuesong did not follow.

He is thinking about how to deal with the aftermath of this matter.

Pei Wen had no evidence—so Hou Xuesong wasn't really afraid.

He was just thinking about how to perfectly blame Pei Wen for this matter.

Pei Wen dared to strike so hard.

Hou Xuesong has never experienced such a embarrassing moment for many years, and his pride does not allow him to be insulted like this.

He had to make Pei Wen pay the price.

Seeing Pei Wen hang up the phone, Hou Xuesong wiped the blood on his forehead with a tissue.

The bursts of stinging pain made him unable to maintain the smile on his face. He forcibly raised the corners of his lips, but his eyes were gloomy, and his whole expression looked ghastly.

"Pei Wen, why are you so angry?"

"Look at you, you are still young and impulsive. Have you ever thought about what will happen to you after calling the police?"

Pei Wen's teeth trembled: "What consequences can I have? You are the one who made the mistake."

Hou Xuesong smiled, and said indifferently, "But, do you have evidence?"

Pei Wen clenched his back molars, as if he had been said to be a weak point.

This was not beyond Hou Xuesong's expectation, he laughed:

"Look, you don't have any evidence. Who would believe you just by talking about it?"

"But it is true that you injured me." Hou Xuesong pointed to the injury on his head.

With a sullen face, Pei Wen watched the other party's mouth open and close, but his ears couldn't hear the other party's words clearly.

——This mouth kissed his neck and touched his ear just now, just thinking about it makes Pei Wen feel extremely sick.

His whole body was in a state of stress, and his brain was in chaos.

"I can completely destroy you because of this matter, so that you can never act again."

"Don't you love acting? Why are you so ignorant?"

Pei Wen heard this sentence clearly.

"Why don't you let me act?" he asked.

Hou Xuesong said relaxedly: "You hurt me."

Conversing black and white is a very common thing. When it really happened to him, Pei Wen only felt sick and nauseous.

He didn't even understand why someone could go to such an extent.

Pei Wen was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he turned around and left.

"Pei Wen." Hou Xuesong called him from behind, with a deep voice, "If you are willing to cooperate with me now, I will give you another chance."

Pei Wen sneered, strode away without looking back.

Before he took two steps, he met Gu Kai face to face.

Gu Kai just ran up from the corner of the stairs.

He was panting from running, and when he saw Pei Wen, he was taken aback for a moment, and then rushed forward.

"Are you all right, are you injured, is there anything wrong?" Gu Kai spoke quickly, holding Pei Wen's shoulders to look him up and down, except that his clothes were a bit messy, there was no other problem.

Pei Wen recovered from the stressful state just now, his eyes focused, and he gradually recognized the person in front of him as Gu Kai.

Someone he can trust.

Pei Wen's eyes turned hot, and he almost cried.

Pei Wen, who was still supporting himself just now, when he saw Gu Kai, seemed to see his own safe haven, and could no longer control his emotions.

"What's wrong?" Gu Kai panicked, "What did he do to you?"

"No, no..."

Several police officers followed and rushed out from the corner of the stairs.

Pei Wen held back his tears: "He didn't do anything to me, but I hurt him."

Gu Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged Pei Wen: "Okay, as long as you are fine, as long as you are fine."

"It doesn't matter, you are in self-defense, you are not breaking the law, don't be afraid."

Pei Wen was caught off guard by being hugged upright, and his body reflexively felt frightened, but the familiar scent entered his nostrils.

Pei Wen suddenly realized that this was Gu Kai.

Gu Kai will not hurt him.

Only then did Pei Wen's tense body relax slowly, allowing Gu Kai to hug him.

Although the instinctive resentment could not be restrained, he didn't want to push Gu Kai away at this moment.

"Well, the phone..." Pei Wen suddenly thought of something.

"It's been recorded." Pei Wen spoke endlessly, but Gu Kai understood what he meant.

Gu Kai let go of Pei Wen, touched his pale cheek, and coaxed: "Don't worry, he won't escape this time."

When Pei Wen called him suddenly, Gu Kai heard Pei Wen's voice before he could make a sound, but it was not talking to him.

Immediately afterwards, Hou Xuesong's voice sounded.

Gu Kai immediately and keenly sensed that there was a problem.

Out of prudence, he immediately chose the recording and listened to the follow-up for the time being.

When he heard that Hou Xuesong started to move his hands and feet, Gu Kai decisively called the police, which is why the police came so quickly.

"That's good." Pei Wen heaved a sigh of relief.

In order to obtain this evidence, he sacrificed too much.

At that time, he could have escaped earlier, but he hesitated for a moment because of this. Before he could come up with the result, Hou Xuesong had already hugged him.

Pei Wen could only follow his train of thought, take the initiative to formulate words, and leave more conclusive evidence, making Hou Xuesong irrefutable.

Gu Kai's cooperation was incomparable, and Pei Wen's sacrifice was not in vain.

"We got the evidence." Gu Kai stroked Pei Wen's hair.

"Hmm..." Pei Wen replied vaguely.

The two parties involved, Pei Wenwen and Hou Xuesong, and the two witnesses, Gu Kai and Fan Lei, went to the police station with the police.

Since Gu Kai produced decisive evidence, although it was only audio, it could already prove the whole process, so Hou Xuesong was detained by the police station first.

After finishing the transcript, when Gu Kai left with Pei Wen, he bid farewell to the witness Fan Lei and entrusted him to ask for a leave of absence for Pei Wen.

For the rehearsal in the afternoon, Pei Wen will definitely not be able to go.

"Scared?" Back home, Gu Kai sat next to Pei Wen, with one arm on his shoulder and the other holding his hand, asking as gently as possible.

He was afraid of irritating Pei Wen.

Pei Wen looked a little dazed, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Tears rolled down her pale cheeks involuntarily, and immediately felt that she was ashamed like this, so she turned her face away from Gu Kai.

"It's okay, cry if you want, I'm here." Gu Kaiwen said softly.

"I want to take a bath." Pei Wen wiped away tears and said, "It's so dirty."
