Under the clouds

Jin Shuo can actually understand the source of Xu Duming's loss of control that day.

Because when they met Shang Mu's familiar eyes, they clearly realized that "Fang Mu" had returned.

In the process of turning "Fang Mu" into a "puppy", Xu Duming was very resistant to seeing Fang Mu for a period of time. During that time, Fang Mu was always unconscious, and often screamed and screamed. When he saw Xu Duming, the hatred in his eyes was like a poisoned knife, and he would yell at Xu Duming crazily, call him a beast, and let him die.

At that time, Xu Duming, who was proud of the spring breeze, naturally had no patience to face Fang Mu like this, and Fang Mu had a mental breakdown and hid, turning into a "puppy".

The relationship between the two of them eased up a little, and they were no longer so tense and hysterical.

And the time between this is not short, it will take a few years. During those few years, Fang Mu suffered a lot and experienced many tortures that ordinary people can't bear, until his mental personality completely disintegrated, and he was even able to do it when he was injured. Hiding in Xu Duming's arms for comfort.

But now "Puppy" is gone.

This made Xu Duming feel very uneasy.

Jin Shuo stopped in front of the door of the second room near the corridor on the seventh floor of Tenerai Winery, swiped his card and went in, and saw Fang Mu lying on the bed.

He didn't look very well, Tang was lying on the bed with his eyes open and motionless looking at the ceiling.

Jin Shuo walked in, then opened the drawer of the bedside table skillfully, took out a simple medical kit from it, pulled out Fang Mu's arm under the thin blanket, and began to apply ointment on the place where he washed off the tattoo.

Xu Duming is a very volatile and distorted person. On the one hand, he wished to completely crush Fang Mu, who was unwilling to forgive himself and even witnessed his most down-and-out, worst, and ugliest side, to the ground. On the one hand, she is very concerned about Fang Mu's body's innocence, and doesn't want to see any marks left by others on it.

Fang Mu looked at the constantly rotating ceiling, and felt someone coming in, followed by the familiar action of applying medicine.

Still in this room, his staff dormitory.

The scene coincides with a certain moment that happened in the past. After Fang Mu attempted suicide by cutting his wrist for the third time, Jin Shuo, his supervisor, came in to apply ointment to remove scars for him.

Jin Shuo is indeed a conscientious and responsible person.

There was a crisp sound of "click", which was the sound of the medical box closing.

Jin Shuo sat on the bed where Fang Mu was lying and did not move. He was silent for a while and suddenly said: "Brother Xu is very angry this time, I hope you can reflect on yourself, the next auction is coming soon, you will no longer have a bee in one's bonnet."

Fang Mu didn't answer, as if he didn't hear.

Jin Shuo was the first to lose his temper. He leaned over and grabbed Fang Mu's chin: "Are you listening to me?"

In fact, Fang Mu did not hear it. After stopping the drug for a week, he returned to Tenerai Winery, a place like purgatory for him. Waking or dreaming.

It was still the overwhelming black sea water, which spread over his mouth and nose with the wind, and receded when it caused suffocation.

Jin Shuo's words rang in Fang Mu's ears in a chaotic order, and he couldn't distinguish them. Looking at Jin Shuo's face distorted into a semicircle above his vision, Fang Mu finally uttered: " Um?"

His eyes blinked.

Jin Shuo saw that he had a reaction, and continued to say to him: "If you don't cooperate like this, follow Brother Xu's order and let you learn the rules you learned before, and you will be happy? It's not like you haven't experienced it before. , what are you insisting on here?"

In fact, Jin Shuo didn't have to say something like "persuasion" here. He could enjoy the process of destroying Fang Mu and reshaping the puppy as he did before, as a "sculptor".

But cutting a piece of intact skin and watching the blood flow out is still different from cutting a piece of skin riddled with old wounds.

Jin Shuo felt that this might be caused by his remaining conscience, but whether it was really the reason, he was not very sure, and instinctively refused to think about it.

But the problem is that conscience has been abandoned by him after he followed Xu Duming.

He was Fang Mu's manager before. At the beginning, he saw Xu Duming who was still resentful because of his underappreciated talents, and he followed Xu Duming, wearing clothes that couldn't be seen, with a bright smile on his face , Fang Mu with clean and bright eyes.

He didn't know if Xu Duming felt this way when he saw Fang Mu this time, but Jin Shuo could feel more and more clearly that "Fang Mu" had really returned.

Fang Mu, who was not mentally unstable like before, who would scold the two of them in the air, waved the things in his hands in a delusion to protect himself, appeared for a short time, and then shrank back in fright.

This time it was complete, complete Fang Mu.

It was also Fang Mu whom both Jin Shuo and Xu Duming were reluctant to face. It seemed that in his pupils, he could reflect his greedy face of stepping on the other's bones and sucking blood.

During the years when Fang Mu was handed over to Jin Shuo, he could clearly perceive every inch of Fang Mu's changes. He knew when he shed tears and which stubborn bones were crushed.

For a long time, Jin Shuo worked hard to create the most expensive product of Chateau Tenerai.

Fang Mu is undoubtedly his most perfect and proud work in his opinion.

He even thought that when Xu Duming got tired of Fang Mu and wanted to throw him away completely, Jin Shuo could pick him up and make him his own.

But now, the "puppy" that Xu Duming and Jin Shuoyong created in three years is gone.

It's not that it's impossible to use the method used on Fang Mu again, but the annoyance that it was destroyed after it was completed, and it needs to be done again and wastes time is lingering.

In the private room on the top floor of Tenerai Winery, Xu Duming was sitting on the sofa, unable to take a sip of the glass of red wine in his hand for a long time.

The screen facing the sofa lit up, and it was playing the promotional clip of the movie "Moon in the Half Bay", which was showing a few highlights of Fang Mu.

Xu Duming is actually a person who seldom remembers the past, after all, his past was not so beautiful.

But now that he is gaining power, standing in his current high position, and having been fascinated by money for many years, it is not true that he will not miss Fang Mu, who once accompanied him and looked at him with sincerity, with eyes full of love.

Although he used words such as "stupid, deceitful, worthless, and stubborn" to evaluate Fang Mu many times later.

But now, he has not met such a "not worth mentioning" love for many years.

Xu Duming looked at Fang Mu's still radiant face on the screen, with an innocent, sinister and sly smile, vivid and beautiful, just like his nine years ago on the roof of the school The smile he showed to Xu Duming.

But Fang Mu would never show that expression to himself again, even if it was a "puppy", the puppy would only obey and beg for mercy.

Finally, after the promotional video was played, Xu Duming slowly put the red wine glass to his lips and took a sip.

Sometimes people may be like this. When they feel that they have nothing, no power, and no power, they feel that sincerity is nothing. Sincerely worth mentioning.

Xu Duming noticed the obvious changes in Fang Mu's return this time.

Instead of screaming and yelling and attacking at himself, his mind was occupied by something else.

That thing was already ahead of hating myself.

This made Xu Duming feel the complete loss of "Fang Mu" to a certain extent.

In fact, Fang Mu was in Xu Duming's hands for a long time, with the mentality of killing Xu Duming, killing himself, killing Xu Duming, and dying together. These thoughts kept jumping.

At the beginning, I hated Xu Duming, but I had no way to resist and retaliate against him. Because of the increasing pain, I wanted to kill myself. Later, I couldn't kill myself, so I began to beg and grovel, until I completely lost my self-awareness.

Fang Mu counted down the seventh day of his drug withdrawal.

He was once again led into Xu Duming's private room by Jin Shuo. When he first entered the door, he saw Xu Duming standing by the French window.

You can see the twinkling lights outside the window at night through the glass.

Fang Mu fantasized about Xu Duming's death countless times, being hit by a car, or drowning in the bathtub because of drunkenness, or dying on the bed because of indulgence...

Blood was dripping, the body was twisted and torn, or the face was swollen with blisters like a pig's head, the eye sockets were black, and the body was naked and embarrassed.

Pictures like this flashed before Fang Mu's eyes more than once, forming one of his few sweet dreams before going to bed.

Just like he is standing here at the moment, looking at Xu Duming who is not far away from him, and starting to imagine again, if he bumps into it like this, smashes the glass window, and grabs Xu Duming, there is a probability of falling from this floor. how big.

The glass here may be strong, and if it does, it will die itself.

There is one point: "The gain outweighs the loss... The gain outweighs the loss..."

Jin Shuo, who was standing beside Fang Mu, listened to what Fang Mu whispered. The sentences were incomplete, and only sporadic words could be heard.

He couldn't help frowning: "Brother Xu is talking to you, why are you in a daze!"

"Huh?" Fang Mu seemed to come back to his senses suddenly, seeing Xu Duming's face with only half a chin in his field of vision forever.

Xu Duming approached Fang Mu and walked towards him, repeating what he said just now: "Xiao Mu, if you want, we can start over. From then on, you don't have to be auctioned off again. If you want to continue acting in movies, I will do it for you." You invest."

"Just pretend that nothing happened before?"

After Fang Mu finished listening to him, his stomach began to twitch violently again.

Such a physical reaction made him stretch out his hand to cover his stomach in pain, but the feeling of wanting to vomit could not be suppressed at all, it was so disgusting, Xu Duming's face with only half of his face turned into countless tiny flesh-colored spots Vortex, all spinning in opposite directions.

It was the first time Fang Mu saw such a disgusting thing, and couldn't help but turn around to confirm Jin Shuo.

He saw Jin Shuo's twisted and still half-round face, and when he turned his head again, he realized that only Xu Duming was so disgusting.

The feeling of stomach twitching became more and more intense. At this moment, Xu Duming seemed to have run out of patience because of Fang Mu's silence.

"What's your answer?" Xu Duming asked.

"I gave you the chance to make a choice three years ago. You didn't cherish it at the time. I will give you another chance now." Xu Duming raised his hand and stroked Fang Mu's face, with a trace of nostalgia and pity in his eyes: "Choose and choose." I start over, let go of everything in the past, or go back to the auction tonight."

"The auction house."

As soon as Fang Mu's voice fell, he felt the hand caressing his face. The strength of the hand suddenly increased, and the temperature in the air seemed to drop.

Xu Duming's hand slowly fell to Fang Mu's collar, and as if he couldn't bear it anymore, he grabbed him and threw him against the wall, almost gnashing his teeth and questioning: "Why do you have to be like this! Always make such stupid, unwise choices! Do everything possible to ask for trouble! What right do you have to hate me! Didn’t you choose it yourself!?”

"Yes, I chose it myself." Fang Mu raised his eyes, resisting the urge to vomit.

"I choose to be with someone else, anyone, as long as it's not you."

Xu Duming seemed to be completely enraged by these words, he grabbed Fang Mu's collar and threw him heavily on the ground.

"Okay! Clean him up, participate in the auction tonight, and send him away!" Xu Duming angrily ordered Jin Shuo, and then slammed the door and left.

Luo Yan brought a bottle of good wine to Zang Lanbai's house that night, and called Zang Lanbai, but found no one answering.

After trying a few times, looking at the locked door, a trace of uneasiness suddenly flashed in my heart.

Bowing in front of the combination lock, he racked his brains to recall the numbers Zang Lanbai had told him before.

After 5 minutes he finally came in after trying the code three times.

Luo Yan pushed open the door and saw that the living room was in a mess. After walking two steps forward, she saw broken flower pots and soil scattered on the ground.

The unease in Luo Yan's heart could not help expanding, and he immediately started calling Li Enshi again, while taking the elevator to the underground garage of the community.

It was twelve o'clock, and the underground auction hall of Tenerai Winery was brightly lit.

Fang Mu was in the auction house in the backstage, watching the time pass by, and there was not much time left for him.

His thoughts began to wander, and he was only briefly able to concentrate.

The last moment was still counting seconds, and the next moment I was in a daze, not knowing what I was waiting for.

Oh, right.

As if waiting to die, a small piece of glass clenched in his hand reminded him of something.

But it seems to be more than that, all his last wishes have been fulfilled, and he can die at any time, so why is he still not acting here?

Is it really necessary to meet the next benefactor again?

Fang Mu curled up, and in the corner of the backstage, he couldn't help but hit his head twice with his hand, what was he waiting for?

It was the sound of the door being opened.

A familiar tall and straight figure appeared in Fang Mu's sight.

The world suddenly stopped turning in Fang Mu's field of vision. He raised his eyes and stared blankly at Zang Lanbai's smiling face.

Suddenly found the answer, it turned out to be waiting for someone.

Waiting for the last beautiful vision.

It seemed that everything around him had disappeared, Fang Mu could only see the figure of Zang Lanbai walking towards him in his eyes, and heard the sound of the other party's footsteps falling on the ground and getting closer and closer to him.

Jin Shuo and some staff members looked at the sudden intruder and were about to stop them: "Sir, please get out of here..."

Before his hand touched Zang Lanbai, he saw Zang Lanbai start to undress his clothes, which shocked everyone.

"Didn't you say that I can use myself as a mortgage?" Zang Lanbai said while taking off one piece of his body neatly, and when he walked in front of Fang Mu, he was already naked.

Jin Shuo raised his hand to signal the staff to get out of the way, and looked at Zang Lanbai with unclear eyes: "What do you mean? What are you going to do?"

"I'll replace him." Zang Lanbai squatted down, pulled Fang Mu who was curled up there as if he couldn't move, and pulled him to stand up.

Then put on the clothes he just took off for Fang Mu one by one. Those clothes were too big for Fang Mu, and they looked a bit nondescript on him.

Fang Mu couldn't react for a while, when his hands collided with Zang Lanbai, he felt the warm skin, and then he took a step back as if he had been scalded, and looked down at the body hidden on his body. The clothes that Lan Bai forcibly put on.

"Really?" He murmured incredulously, and when he looked at Zang Lanbai in front of him again, an uncontrollable fear suddenly rose in his eyes.

"Mr. Zang... why are you here?" Fang Mu looked at him, his chest heaving violently.

Zang Lanbai continued to approach him, reaching out to remove the collar on Fang Mu's neck.

It's a black collar with the serial number "00397" engraved on it.

Fang Mu suddenly stretched out his hand and tightly grasped the collar that originally symbolized humiliation: "Don't...don't...please don't do this...Mr. Zang...please..."

"Shh...don't cry." Zang Lanbai smiled lightly at him: "I said, I will solve all this well."

Fang Mu suddenly shook his head crazily, and big tears fell down. When he realized what Zang Lanbai was going to do, the black collar that was originally around his neck like a life-threatening, did not know Why did he let him be born, the more he was pulled away, the more he felt suffocated.

"I've told you many times, but you don't believe me." Zang Lanbai pulled the collar out of Fang Mu's hand inch by inch.

Fang Mu's fingers turned white with force, but there was nothing he could do. He cried and apologized helplessly and in extreme panic: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Please... I was wrong, don't do this, please don't do this!"

He knew that Zang Lanbai was angry, even though he blamed every sentence in his words, there was no anger on his expression.

But Fang Mu could feel that Zang Lanbai was punishing Fang Mu for leaving with Jin Shuo that day.

Although Zang Lanbai said: "It doesn't matter."
