Horse riding in the snow

05

Zheng Wangxing regretted it the moment he picked up the phone.

The man on the other end of the phone had a hoarse voice with a strong nasal voice, but Zheng Wangxing recognized at the first moment that it was his former senior Luo Shengchao, who was also... the main palace of his "ambiguous partner" who had been in business for a short time.He panicked. He really didn't expect that an agreement recognized by both parties would bring so many troubles. First, he was blackmailed by Dai Xu's big boss father. It's been three years, so is he still going to be arrested? Get up and "beat the mistress"?

This is too embarrassing. If he had known that the money was so difficult to earn, he would not have taken the risk and agreed to the agreement.

"Senior Sheng Chao?" Zheng Wangxing put down the materials to be copied, and sneaked into the stairwell beside him with his mobile phone in his hand, "What, what's the matter? Can I do something for you?"

On the other end of the phone, Luo Shengchao called his name, and after a moment of silence, he continued, "I'm sorry to interrupt you so suddenly, I have something to ask you, can you... is it convenient?"

Zheng Wangxing played with the corner of his clothes, and two words "Sure enough" came out of his mind, he asked, "Is it about senior Dai Xu?"

There was another sound from the receiver, and Zheng Wangxing took a deep breath: "I thought you two had reconciled, the senior saved a doll with me before, it was made of ceramics, and he contacted me once abroad, I thought you two It's all safe now, so I entrusted their family's private doctor to return the doll to him. Senior Sheng Chao, have you received it? He asked me to keep it safe, but I haven't touched it even once."

On the other end of the phone, Luo Sheng shrank his fingers, and couldn't help but clenched the phone tightly.He wanted to tell his junior that you protected the porcelain doll very well, but I smashed it into pieces, but there was a bitterness in his throat, and he couldn't even calmly say this fait accompli.

"Is it okay to meet and chat?" He could only say this in the end.

Only then did Zheng Wangxing realize that something was wrong, and he stammered his answer, saying that he was still at work and would not be able to come out until evening.Although Luo Shengchao was in a state of confusion, he hadn't lost his mind. He said "I'm sorry for you" in a low voice before hanging up, and sent the address of the hospital to Zheng Wangxing's mobile phone number.

Zheng Wangxing didn't arrive at the hospital until after seven o'clock in the evening, followed Luo Shengchao's message to find the intensive care unit area, and then saw Luo Shengchao's figure leaning against the corner of the corridor from a distance.There were a few tall men in neat clothes standing in the corridor, while his usually neat and gentle senior had his head bowed and his body shrunk, looking extraordinarily embarrassed.

He trotted over and called "Senior" in a low voice.

Hearing the sound, Luo Shengchao raised his head, his face looked extremely pale under the incandescent light, only his eyes were red and his eyelids were a little swollen.He smiled, and his voice was hoarse when he called Zheng Wangxing's name.

Zheng Wangxing looked at the glass window of the ICU, and his mind quickly turned around.

"Did something happen to Senior Dai Xu?" He asked, "Why did you suddenly...?"

Luo Shengchao seemed to comfort him as well as himself: "He was born with a heart problem, nothing will happen. The doctor said that he can be transferred to the general ward after he wakes up."

It's just that he said he would wake up at night, but up to now, the person has no sign of waking up at all.Luo Shengchao couldn't help thinking that perhaps his behavior of smashing the porcelain doll and what he said at that time were so cruel that even Dai Xu, who was walking all the way with knives, couldn't bear it, so he simply gave up opening his eyes.

The conversation between the two caught the attention of several men nearby. Luo Shengchao smiled bitterly and explained that these were the bodyguards of the Dai family, guarding Dai Xu here.To his surprise, Zheng Wangxing did not appear to be taken aback by the rich family's battle, but accepted this reality as usual.

Luo Shengchao frowned, and soon realized that Zheng Wangxing had seen the Dai family's power.He took Zheng Wangxing to a further corner, and opened his mouth with difficulty: "The reason why I trouble you to come here is because...you may be the only one who knows what Dai Xu did three years ago. When I saw you from a When I came out of the room, I subconsciously thought you guys..." He bit his lower lip, "I've heard some sayings in the past two days, and I feel that some things may be different from what I thought. Can you, can you tell me the original situation ?"

Zheng Wangxing let out a "huh", Luo Shengchao's confusion was something he had thought of on the way here.Now Dai Jianwen is terminally ill. He once learned from the financial news that Dai Xu is now in charge of the Dai family. Without the threat of the old Mr. Dai, Zheng Wangxing hopes from the bottom of his heart that the misunderstanding between the two seniors can be eliminated.

After all, when Dai Xu found him three years ago, he could hardly contain his love for Luo Shengchao, both inside and outside of his words... They were originally a pair of lovers who envied others.

Zheng Wangxing quickly explained what happened back then.

When Dai Xu came to him, Zheng Wangxing was raising money for his father's malignant disease.Dai Xu had nothing else to give, but he was indeed not short of money. He generously helped Zheng Wangxing's father pay for the medicine, and left a considerable amount of living expenses for their family.Zheng Wangxing had to pay back the favor he owed, so he bit the bullet and played a play with Dai Xu.

Dai Xu said that the housekeeper around him found out that he had found a boyfriend, and reported it to his father, Dai Jianwen. Fortunately, the old housekeeper was old enough to react quickly enough to leave no image of Luo Shengchao, so he needed to find a boy to cover Luo Shengchao. pass a level.Dai Xu usually tends to be quiet and rarely socializes, so he can only ask Zheng Wangxing for help at critical moments.

There are things that come and go, helping each other, it’s not a power squeeze, but Dai Xu has repeatedly assured Zheng Wangxing that Dai Jianwen will not make any threats to his personal safety, but the school may not be able to stay, and Zheng Wangxing will follow up. Dai Xu will make proper arrangements for his working life in at most two years.

Zheng Wangxing was short of money, and he planned to drop out of school to work. Hearing that his life was not in danger, and it was difficult to refuse, he agreed to Dai Xu immediately.

Later things developed as Luo Shengchao saw. Dai Xu had a cat-like intuition, and seemed to realize that his father would soon control him. After breaking up with Luo Shengchao, he quickly packed Zheng Wangxing out.

He sent Zheng Wangxing to the airport, stuffed his documents and a box of cash into his hands, told him that the South was safe, and asked him to work there for two years first.

Zheng Wangxing looked at him. The clean and beautiful senior in the past seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. His complexion was not very good, there was gray in the pale, and the color of his lips was not normal, but his eyes were still the same as before. quiet.

It was so quiet.

Zheng Wangxing's throat was astringent, and he said, senior, take care.

Dai Xu smiled and waved at him, but stopped him after he turned around and walked a few steps away.Zheng Wangxing turned around and saw Dai Xu took out a small white doll from the inner pocket of his coat, held it in his hand and looked down for a while before handing it over to him with a rare hesitant expression.

"Sorry, I have to ask you to do me a favor, this, please keep it safe."

With a humble tone, he repeated again: "Please."

Afterwards, Zheng Wangxing settled down in a small southern town. As expected, he received the notice of withdrawal from the school, but he was not further persecuted.It is true that Dai Jianwen has a strong desire to control, but he is not stupid enough to be deceived by a perfunctory lie from his son. He knows that he has arrested the wrong person, so he temporarily let Zheng Wangxing go.

Then came the news that Dai Jianwen was seriously ill and admitted to the hospital, and that Dai Xu had taken office as the new president. He contacted the phone number that Dai Xu had left for him, but it was Dai's personal doctor, Guan Chi, who answered the phone.

Guan Chi took him back to the north, and he returned the porcelain doll to the other party.

"That's all I know." Zheng Wangxing was a little embarrassed, "Senior Sheng Chao, don't get me wrong, I'm a straight man, and I've found a girlfriend in the past two years."

"The day you found out... neither of us did anything. Senior Dai Xu opened a room that day, but he just sat in the suite outside and didn't move. He said it was too cold and asked me to take a hot bath."

Luo Shengchao clenched his fists tightly, trying not to shed tears.He suddenly hated him a little. He didn't know whether he hated Dai Jianwen or Dai Xu more.

He hated Dai Xu's arbitrariness, hated that he didn't even say a word to himself, hated that he was childish and strong enough to bear everything.He is so gentle to Zheng Wangxing, he must be more attentive to himself...

From the bottom of his heart, he is a fool who can dig out his heart and lungs to satisfy people's hunger.

But he didn't dare to hate, and he couldn't help feeling distressed.What can Dai Xu know? He grew up under his father's bullying and insulting. He was only then.He didn't have time to inform, maybe it was just that Dai Jianwen had fully controlled the communication tools, he just wanted to protect Luo Shengchao, what's wrong with him?

But their relationship was still broken.But Luo Shengchao thought that maybe the reglued objects would be a little heavier than before.

Luo Shengchao trembled and took a few deep breaths, and asked with scarlet eyes, "How are you doing now?"

Zheng Wangxing scratched his head: "I'm pretty good. Senior Dai Xu arranged a good and stable job for me. I just walked with him for a cutscene. What he gave me was far more than what I paid."

Luo Shengchao nodded, didn't say anything, just thanked you twice, the second probably came through time.

It was already late after sending Zheng Wangxing away, Luo Sheng asked for a blanket from the nurse's desk, wrapped himself in it, and stood guard on the chair at the entrance of the ICU.Guan Chi came up after dinner, brought him a sandwich, and advised him to fill his stomach.

In the middle of the night, the news of Dai Xu waking up came from the intensive care unit. Luo Shengchao was overjoyed and wanted to put on the isolation suit and go in to have a look at him, but the doctor refused, saying that Dai Xu just opened his eyes subconsciously. It took about half a minute to wake up, and soon fell asleep again.

But the good news is that Dai Xu's vital signs have stabilized, and he can be transferred to the general ward at dawn.

Guan Chi set up a temporary bed for Luo Shengchao in the consulting room. Luo Shengchao thanked him but couldn't sleep. He spent the first half of the night crying, and in the second half of the night, he dug out his social accounts that had been dusty for many years, and read about the year of love one by one. More self-published stories that are only visible to you.

They were so sweet before, but they became like this because of a misunderstanding... In the future, will they have a chance to get back together?

It is difficult for Luo Shengchao to describe his mood at the moment with words. Sadness and pain have become the background color. He feels helpless, wronged, and angry, and he goes around and returns to his heartache.He repeatedly imagined Dai Xu's life in the past three years, imagined his bleeding head, and his heart failure. The corners of her eyes were red, and she groped for the little mole that she hadn't kissed for a long, long time.

People with tear moles are born with bitterness and are doomed to be tortured by emotions. It turns out that it is all true.

The next morning, Dai Xu was transferred to the VIP ward of the hospital. Luo Shengchao simply washed his face in the bathroom. When he arrived at the door of the ward, he heard that Dai Xu had woken up. Xu bought a bowl of porridge before mustering up the courage to push open the door.

The single ward is quite spacious, and the windows on the sunny side have good lighting, so the whole room is very bright.When he opened the door and entered, Dai Xu was leaning against the head of the bed which had been raised a lot, the sunlight gently outlined the sides of his face, making his complexion almost transparent.

Luo Shengchao tried his best to keep his movements light, but Dai Xu quickly noticed him, trembled almost imperceptibly, and struggled to support his body.

Luo Shengchao hurriedly stepped forward to his side to support him, not letting his needled hand take too much effort, and raised his hand to help him tuck the quilt.In early spring, it was warm and cold, and Dai Xu's body temperature was abnormally low, and he didn't have much heat on his body wrapped in a quilt. When Luo Shengchao touched him, his tentacles were still cold.

"Dai Xu." Luo Shengchao called out in a low voice.

Dai Xu raised his eyes. From a close-up perspective, this glance was shockingly beautiful, but Luo Shengchao didn't care to appreciate it—he could only see a fragile panic in Dai Xu's eyes.

He hastily changed his tone, and his tone was more gentle: "Xuxu, I'm sorry."

Hearing the sound, Dai Xu closed his eyes, moved his lips, but said nothing.His movements were very slow, he raised his hand as if to save Luo Shengchao from supporting him, he stretched his hand halfway, then slowly retracted it.

After a while, he responded: "I'm fine, don't worry."

He was still like this, quiet and obedient, and didn't ask anything after waking up, as if he wasn't curious why Luo Shengchao suddenly became so gentle.

Luo Shengchao suddenly didn't know what else to say, there was too much chaos between them, Dai Xu didn't betray him, and Dai Xu was hurt badly, but the grievance and hatred of those three years really existed, he For a while, I was not used to it, and my heart was full of distress and love, but it was already difficult to express.

He just hugged Dai Xu silently like that, the person in his arms was too thin now, and his sick bones were so disjointed that people didn't even dare to hug him hard, Dai Xu hurt his heart when he got close.

He remembered Guan Chi's mention of Dai Xu's reluctance to let people get close to his head, so he restrained himself from getting too close to his head, just hugged him for a while, then let go, and sat down next to Dai Xu.

Being together for more than a year, although Dai Xu was in poor health, he rarely needed to be admitted to the hospital for emergency treatment. Luo Shengchao felt panicked and stared at Dai Xu for a long time before regaining some sense of security.Dai Xu didn't even look up at him, his neck bent submissively, as if admitting his mistake.

Luo Shengchao rubbed the back of his hand with his thumb, sighed silently, and brought over the porridge that was just set aside to be warm.

"Eat something, you have slept for a long time."

The softly cooked rice porridge was held in front of his eyes by his beloved, Dai Xu was stunned, and slowly moved his gaze over.The light fragrance spread in front of him, he smiled very hard, and said "thank you" in a low voice, but the next moment his expression changed, his Adam's apple trembled, and he turned his head to the air and retched.

"what happened to you?"

Luo Shengchao was startled, and quickly put the bowl on the low table beside the hospital bed, and raised his hand for Dai Xushun to carry it.The young man was too thin, he vomited and trembled all over, Luo Shengchao could even feel the heart beating chaotically in the chest of the person in his arms.

His eyes turned red suddenly, and he called out "Xu Xu" again in a low voice.

Dai Xu didn't seem to understand the pity in Luo Shengchao's tone, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes were foggy and full of confusion.He lowered his head and panted for a while, trying to restrain his embarrassment, looking at the little moisture dripping from the quilt, he frowned in disgust.

Luo Shengchao comforted him "it's okay", Dai Xu said "hmm", his voice was hoarse than before.

Luo Shengchao avoided his sight and wiped away the uncontrollable tears, and said with a smile: "If you can't eat it, don't eat it first, it's okay."

Dai Xu also smiled, and slowly turned his head to comfort him: "I'm sorry to trouble you, it's okay."

But Luo Shengchao knew that something was wrong with him, and the sense of powerlessness spread endlessly along his heart to his limbs. The two of them were so close that the person he loved the most was right in front of him, but he knew that there was a long distance between them.

It took three years, a false betrayal, a forced abandonment, and a precarious moment.
