Chapter 23
Chapter 23
Yuan Fan leaned against the wall with his body arched slightly, and pressed his forehead with his palm, blood was all between his fingers.He raised his head to meet Guan Zan's gaze, his left eye was covered with blood, and the bottom of the other eye was full of surprise and confusion, as if he never thought that the child whom he bullied since he was a child would have the day to fight back.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Fan noticed Guan Zan's swollen mouth and bloody hands, as if waking up from a dream, subconsciously wanting to pass.
"Zan-chan..."
Guan Zan was very dizzy, so he quickly pointed a broken vase at him and threatened in a low voice, "Don't come here."
Yuan Fan did not move.
Guan Zan looked at him intently, like a cat on extreme alert, with all its hair standing on end, and retreated from the balcony step by step.
During the confrontation, the air fell into dead silence, and the previously imperceptible pain swept over. Guan Zan's forehead was covered with a dense layer of cold sweat, and his fingers trembled as he reached for the backpack on the sofa.The hit on the coffee table may have hurt his back, and it would hurt badly if he stretched it a little. He staggered and stumbled a step, and his whole body lost his balance immediately, and he slammed into the door frame in embarrassment.
Yuan Fan's expression changed dramatically, and he was about to rush over.
Guan Zan stood up straight against the wall, and shouted, "Don't move!"
"I just wanted to see if you were seriously injured." Yuan Fan explained, and glanced at the wall Guan Zan was leaning against, looking at the bloody handprint left by his palm.When did you get hurt?Yuan Fan recalled calmly, and it took a moment to think of the glass shards all over the floor: "Go to the hospital, I will take you."
"No need." Throwing away the broken vase, Guan Zan opened the door, and took some tissues from the tissue box on the shoe cabinet.The palms were clenched tightly, and the facial tissue was quickly soaked in blood. Guan Zan couldn't stop shaking from the pain, and had to take two deep breaths to force himself to calm down: "Tell your mother, set aside the whole of next Sunday and get ready for my dad's Guqin, I will come again."
"Guan Zan!" Yuan Fan chased after him.
The door closed with a bang, and Guan Zan left.
The voice-activated light on the porch was startled brightly, Guan Zan ignored the pain in his back, and walked in a hurry, for fear that the mad dog in the house would catch up to him and bite him.
It was completely dark outside now, and the green plants in the community blocked the windows of the houses, leaving only the street lights along the driveway every few meters emitting a faint cold light.After leaving Yuan's courtyard and walking up an adjacent driveway, Guan Zan finally stopped, threw the tissue into the trash can, and checked the condition of his palm with the help of the light.
A drop of water fell from the sky and splashed on his wrist.
Guan Zan sighed exhaustedly, looked up at the gloomy and low-hanging clouds, and felt that the rain was really not at the right time.
The house leak happens to be raining all night, which probably describes him as a lost dog.
At this time, the vibration sounded, and Guan Zan was restless, unable to react for a while.It wasn't until several times in a row that he realized that the movement came from his trouser pocket, so he quickly took out the phone with his good right hand.After seeing the caller clearly, Guan Zan felt his heart beating wildly. All the grievances he had suffered not long ago seemed to be magnified several times in an instant, and piled up in his chest, making him breathless.
The pale street lamps in cold tones made his eyes sore, Guan Zan turned his back, adjusted his emotions, and then picked up the phone.
The earpiece was very quiet, only the slight breathing sound of each other. Guan Zan took a breath and asked with a smile, "Are you home yet?"
"Not yet." Ke Jinrui replied.
"Is that going to the company?" Guan Zan guessed along, not interested in small talk, but didn't want to be found out, "It should be very busy, why do you have time to call me, what's the matter?"
There was a short silence for a few seconds. Guan Zan heard the sound of a lighter. After a while, Ke Jinrui said, "Forget it. I thought you didn't get along well with that family member, so I wanted to ask if the first night went well?"
"My aunt went out to play cards and didn't come back. My cousin is the only one at home. Everything is fine." After finishing speaking, Guan Zan pursed his lips tightly, and rubbed his left hand on his trouser leg with his left hand hanging by his side, trying to stop those endless stalks. oozing blood.
"Really?" Ke Jinrui's tone was indifferent, as casual and pleasant as ever, "Why did you run out alone when everything was fine? Do you want to take a walk at night?"
As soon as these words came out, Guan Zan froze for a moment, and murmured in disbelief: "How could you..." Before he finished speaking, he seemed to realize something suddenly, and his body froze slightly inconspicuously, and then slowly turned around to look .
The summer rain has arrived, and the rain is light and dense, like a layer of moist and sentimental mist floating in the air.Everything was quiet, and the street lamps on both sides of the road seemed to be full of water and became foggy. They looked a little less cold, but became gentler.When the Land Rover came, it stopped in a dark place where the light could not reach, and turned off the engine quietly, while the man leaned against the car, smoking the cigarette in hand leisurely, and the bluetooth headset on his ear flashed Once off, neither far nor near, just right to maintain the call more than ten meters away.
Guan Zan didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment—probably more surprise than surprise, more heartbeat than heartbeat, right?
Then, he heard Ke Jinrui say, "Don't you want to come over?"
After hanging up the call, Guan Zan came to the other party. He stood in the backlight, and couldn't hold back, his eyes became wet unscrupulously.
"Why didn't you leave?" Guan Zan tried to calm down and asked hoarsely.
Ke Jinrui didn't rush to answer, but put out the cigarette, he took Guan Zan's hand hidden behind him, checked the condition of the wound, and said calmly: "I already left, but I didn't feel relieved when I drove halfway, so I came back again. "
He lowered his eyes to look at Guan Zan, and concluded, "The cut is a bit deep, so you can't deal with it casually. I have to take you to the hospital for a tetanus." As he spoke, he gently rubbed the corner of Guan Zan's mouth with his hand, and his brows tightened. Where is it hurt?"
Guan Zan didn't speak, stretched out his hand to caress the back of the opponent's hand, and carefully pressed his cheek into his palm.Ke Jinrui smiled silently, understanding the little guy's request, he put his arms around Guan Zan's shoulders considerately, and embraced his trembling body into his arms.
"Are you really wronged this time?" He bowed his head next to Guan Zan's ear, breathed gently, and coaxed him gently and gently, "Then vent it out, master holds you."
That sentence was more like an opportunity, opening the rusty closed door, all the grievances poured out at this moment, breaking the last line of defense blocking the boundary.Guan Zan cried for a long time, crying all the tears that flowed back to his stomach in the past ten years, and then his brain emptied, and he fell into a weak state of absence, sobbing softly, lying in Ke Jinrui's arms without saying a word Also do not move.
It was getting late, and I could let go of other things, but not the infected wound.
Ke Jinrui didn't want to disturb Guan Zan, so he didn't ask the redundant "Can I go", but directly hugged him by the waist.This touched his sprained back, Guan Zan grunted in pain, grabbed the front of his shirt and shrank towards the opponent's chest.Ke Jinrui sensed something was wrong, took a few quick steps, and put the person into the co-pilot safely. He carefully pressed Guan Zan's back to determine where the pain occurred.
"Shouldn't hurt the spine, but just to be cautious, I still need to take a picture." After the inspection, Ke Jinrui pulled on the seat belt and put it in, closed the passenger door, and then walked around to the other side and sat in the driver's seat.
The Land Rover started, the temperature of the air conditioner was turned up a bit, and the air blowing out from the air outlet was dry and slightly cool, which was very comfortable.
Guan Zan looked at him sideways, remained silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but said, "Why don't you ask me what wronged me today?"
Ke Jinrui curled his mouth when he heard the words, and replied casually: "If I were you, I wouldn't be willing to tell others why I walked in well, and then came out with a lot of injuries." He paused, and then replied after a few seconds Added, "I just need to know that these are left by your cousin, and that alone is enough."
Guan Zan was very thankful that he really didn't want to repeat the details of being beaten. This kind of thing is very embarrassing, and he personally doesn't want to mention it.Fortunately, Ke Jinrui has a high emotional intelligence, understands the importance of self-evident, and gave him enough respect and face.
But one thing must be stated.
Guan Zan's tenacious self-esteem was clamoring, and he whispered: "I'm not the one who suffers completely..."
Ke Jinrui was a little interested, and gave the little guy a vague look: "Did you fight back?"
"Yeah." Guan Zan didn't realize that he was acting like a child who was stubborn to prove himself. "I didn't dare to resist before because I was afraid of being kicked out by my aunt. Now it's different. I'm kicked out too..." He suddenly felt guilty , he can support himself by working part-time, but the current life is given by the Ke family, so he lacks confidence in the end.
Ke Jinrui didn't care, and filled in the second half for him: "I'll follow up when I'm kicked out."
This sentence was not what Guan Zan thought, but it was far more beautiful than the sentence in his mind.
However, Guan Zan is sober. Even though he loves Ke Jinrui's meticulous care, he never dares to forget the rules of the game.He was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the temptation, and would be softened by the sweet words, and that he would move his thoughts that he shouldn't move first, and fall into a situation where he couldn't get what he wanted.
The game between the master and the slave was originally an ambiguous game. When they were emotional, they confused the real with the fake, and after the end, they were as indifferent as passers-by.This is an unwritten rule in the circle, and all participants are careful to abide by it, as if they are maintaining the unique laws of that world, and few people will make transgressive actions.
Here, Guan Zan is a newcomer, but he is well versed in the rules of the circle, so what really puzzles him is not his feelings for Ke Jinrui, but the fact that this man, who has been in the circle longer and more experienced than him, is dealing with private issues. Excessive intimacy.
If Ke Jinrui is indifferent, then he will definitely not have a chance to be attracted, will not be shaken, and will not have feelings that he shouldn't have!It's a pity that things backfired. Ke Jinrui's meticulous care was like an impenetrable net, locking him in from body to heart, and struggling in vain would only make the net tighter and tighter, strangling him painfully and sweetly.
Knowing that it is poison, but swallowing it willingly, knowing that the fire is burnt out, but there is no cure, to be the moth that rushes to the fire to die.
Guan Zan's whole body ached, only his mind was at ease, and he even felt a little relieved.
So, the little cat bravely braved it, leaned over, and kissed the scumbag owner who only flirts with him.
Ke Jinrui was rarely surprised, and looked sideways at Guan Zan.I saw the little guy with a bruised nose and a swollen face, looking miserable, and it was very painful, but the words he said were full of strength, as if he wanted to hurt him.
What Guan Zan said was: "Mr. Ke, I want to chase you."
