When Shen Yu woke up, it seemed like a long time had passed.
The car was still moving forward. He didn't know where the destination was. The car was very quiet, as if he couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.
Shen Yu blinked and raised his head, only to find that there was a hand under his neck. He was stunned for a moment and realized that it was Tang Li's hand.
"Are you awake?" Tang Li's voice sounded in his ears.
"Yes …" Shen Yu sat up and rubbed his neck a little blankly. It was not as sore as he imagined. It should be because Tang Li was holding him with his hand.
Shen Yu was stunned for a while, then turned to look at Tang Li. "What time is it? How long have I slept? "
Tang Li leaned slightly to one side, his right hand resting on the back of the chair. His posture looked a little awkward. He probably didn't feel good.
"Not long." Tang Li smiled. His dark eyes stared at Shen Yu in the dim light. His arm behind Shen Yu never intended to be put down.
Shen Yu took out his mobile phone and looked at the time.
Only half an hour had passed.
It was indeed not long.
Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Soon, his attention fell on Tang Li's arm. "What's wrong with your hand?"
"It's a little numb." Tang Li smiled disapprovingly. "It's okay."
Shen Yu thought that he had slept for half an hour, and Tang Li had held him motionlessly for half an hour. For a moment, he felt sour in his heart. He was touched by Tang Li's considerate behavior, but he was also annoyed that he had fallen asleep on the road when he finally saw Tang Li.
"You should have woken me up." Shen Yu sighed and asked, "Haven't we arrived at the hotel yet?"
Tang Li looked at Zhou Che in front of him. "It should be soon." He was not sure.
Hearing this, Zhou Che hurriedly echoed, "We'll be there soon. Let me turn around in front and drive for another kilometer."
Shen Yu was silent for a moment and said, "… Are we going around in circles?"
"No, Brother Zhou went the wrong way." Tang Li replied immediately and poured a big pot on Zhou Che's head without changing his expression. "Brother Zhou, remember to pay attention to the road next time you drive."
Zhou Che: "…"
He wanted so badly to say it out loud.
'Isn't it your Tang Li that made me drive straight ahead?!' How did it turn into me going on an errand now?!
However, after meeting Tang Li's cold gaze in the rearview mirror, Zhou Che subconsciously swallowed his saliva and swallowed all his words.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of the hotel.
Tang Li got out of the car first. He opened the door for Shen Yu and helped him get out. Then he turned around and leaned close to the driver's window. He whispered to Zhou Che to help him buy a set of clothes for Shen Yu.
In fact, strictly speaking, Zhou Che was Tang Li's immediate superior.
It was just that since Tang Li joined their team, he often occupied a leadership position. As the big boss, Zhou Che treated Tang Li's words as an imperial edict. Over time, the employees in the company regarded Tang Li as half a boss.
As for the real big boss, Zhou Che, acting as Tang Li's chauffeur …
It had long been a common occurrence.
There were even many people who privately discussed whether Zhou Che liked Tang Li. After all, his words and actions were very similar to Tang Li's dog …
Of course, as the person involved, Zhou Che did not know that the story of his and Tang Li's love and hatred had been spread out 800 times. He carefully remembered Tang Li's instructions, nodded like he was pounding garlic, and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I'll go now."
Tang Li patted Zhou Che's shoulder and said sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Zhou."
Zhou Che waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, Brother Li."
Then, both of them fell into silence.
Tang Li rubbed his nose and said rather embarrassedly, "You can just call me by my name."
Zhou Che said, "… Okay, Tang Li."
After that, Zhou Che looked at Tang Li's face, which was obviously much younger and more handsome than his. In an instant, his heart was filled with tears.
It was really frustrating to compare oneself to others.
Shen Yu stood behind Tang Li and vaguely heard the conversation between Tang Li and Zhou Che. The doubts in his heart grew heavier and heavier, but he did not say anything in the end. He was helped into the hotel by Tang Li.
Originally, Tang Li wanted to carry or carry Shen Yu in, but Shen Yu decisively refused.
"You're still young." Shen Yu habitually used this excuse to brush off Tang Li.
Tang Li was very dissatisfied. He gently squeezed Shen Yu's palm and said, "I've grown up."
Shen Yu laughed and said, "You're not an adult yet."
"There's still more than a year left. It'll pass in the blink of an eye." Tang Li looked down at Shen Yu's side face bathed in the light. His eyes were full of tenderness. "And I'm taller than you now."
"…"
Shen Yu, whose heart was pierced, shook off Tang Li's hand expressionlessly and said, "Shut up."
"I was wrong. I was wrong." Tang Li was very active in admitting his mistake. He hurriedly grabbed Shen Yu's arm and coaxed him pitifully, "Shen Yu, I was wrong. Don't be angry."
Shen Yu pursed his lips and pushed Tang Li in the direction of the front desk.
So Tang Li ran to the front desk happily.
Shen Yu stared at Tang Li's happy back. He couldn't help laughing for a while. He quickly covered his mouth with his fist, but he couldn't stop the smile from rising on his face.
He was very happy.
He hadn't been so happy for a long time.
During the five days when he lost contact with Tang Li, every day felt extraordinarily long. Now the joy of regaining what he had lost enveloped him. It seemed that even the air was soaked with a sweet smell.
After a while, Tang Li came back with the room card. The smile on his face was almost tangible.
Shen Yu, who finally calmed down, couldn't help laughing. In the elevator where only the two of them were in, he asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Tang Li shrugged and said, "Nothing. I'm just very happy."
Shen Yu raised his chin slightly and stared at Tang Li's face bathed in the backlight. The smile on his face was like a disease, spreading to the deepest part of Shen Yu's heart in an instant.
He was really lucky.
Shen Yu said, "Fool."
Hearing this word, Tang Li smiled even more brightly. He didn't deny it, "You're right. I'm a fool."
He was not only a fool, but also a fool. He was so stupid that the girl at the front desk was happy for a long time when she casually asked if Shen Yu was her boyfriend. She even wanted to put that sentence into the tape recorder and play it from time to time.
Shen Yu looked at Tang Li's smile and shook his head helplessly.
·
After arriving at the room.
Shen Yu rushed straight into the bathroom. The bright light shone on the mirror, making it spotless. The mirror clearly reflected his disheveled appearance. His hair was disheveled, his cheeks were pale, and the dark circles under his eyes looked as if he had put on a ball of eyeshadow.
His clothes were dirty and wrinkled, and there was an unpleasant smell coming from him.
He didn't know if Tang Li had smelled the smell on him when he fell asleep in Tang Li's arms in the car.
When he thought that Tang Li had been immersed in this strange smell for half an hour, Shen Yu felt uncomfortable all over. An emotion called shame climbed into his heart like a small worm …
F * ck.
Shen Yu cursed in his heart, and then quickly took off his clothes and pants.
Outside the bathroom.
Tang Li sat on the sofa in front of the French window, staring at the closed bathroom door. He waited for a long time, but Shen Yu didn't come out. He couldn't help but feel worried.
He was about to get up and knock on the door when the mobile phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.
Tang Li saw the name displayed on the screen of the mobile phone at a glance. The corner of his mouth that was originally raised suddenly froze, and then slowly pursed into a straight line.
Although he didn't want to be disturbed, Tang Li still had to pick up the mobile phone and answer the call.
"Second Uncle," Tang Li said in a deep voice.
"Yes." A steady middle-aged man's voice came from the phone receiver. He said flatly, "I just rushed over from C City. I heard that you had something to do, so you left?"
Tang Li answered in a low voice, "It's something urgent."
"What in the world can be more urgent than reuniting with your family?" The other party was slightly dissatisfied. Although his tone was flat, his words were full of undisguised reproach. "I know that you have just returned home and there are many things that you can't adapt to for the time being, but I hope you can know what's more important."
"I know. Thank you for your guidance, Second Uncle." Tang Li said. He looked down at the blanket on the floor. His long eyelashes cast a shadow on his smooth skin. There was no expression on his face, but it made people feel cold.
It was as if the coldness had seeped into their bones.
Second Uncle on the other side of the phone didn't notice anything wrong. Seeing that Tang Li was so obedient, his attitude softened a little, but he still ordered, "Remember to come back before 11 o 'clock tomorrow. I've brought your uncle and second aunt. Let's have a meal together as a family and get to know each other."
Tang Li said, "Okay, Second Uncle."
Then Second Uncle gave a few more words of advice before hanging up the phone.
Tang Li held the phone and didn't move for a long time. The hostility hidden in the bottom of his eyes was like a surging undercurrent, quietly overturning the sea.
When he heard a knock on the door, the low pressure around him instantly disappeared. In the blink of an eye, he looked as if nothing had happened.
He got up and went to open the door. Zhou Che was standing outside, panting. He was carrying shopping bags of various sizes in his hands.
"I bought a few sets of clothes that look good. You can choose for yourselves." After Zhou Che finished panting, he stuffed all the shopping bags in his hands into Tang Li's arms. "There are also some underwear in this small bag."
After delivering the things, Zhou Che left.
However, after taking two steps, he suddenly remembered something. He put one hand into his trouser pocket and rummaged around. Finally, he took out two thin pink square plastic bags and quickly put them into Tang Li's pocket.
"I specially went to the pharmacy to buy these." Zhou Che winked at Tang Li. "I wish you a pleasant night."
Unfortunately, Tang Li didn't see clearly what Zhou Che was holding in his hand just now. He was a little confused. "… What's this?"
"At this time, don't pretend anymore." Zhou Che clicked his tongue twice, patted Tang Li on the shoulder, and made a gesture to cheer him on. Then, he slipped away without a trace.
