Tang Li got close to the executive who was abandoned by the Tang family, got the evidence that the executive threatened the Tang family, and then found out the other people who helped the Tang family in the past.
The incident at that time was like a messy ball of yarn. Once Tang Li grasped one end of it, it was only a matter of time before he sorted out the whole ball of yarn.
Time did leave a trace on that incident.
It covered up the original bloody wound and only let others see the insignificant scars. It seemed that as time went by, that incident and those people were not worth mentioning.
However, when Tang Li opened the scars, what appeared in front of him was blood that was even more bloody than before, and the wound that had long festered.
He was very scared.
He did not dare to face it, but he had to face it.
Those disgusting and unbearable truths lingered in his mind, constantly stimulating his nerves.
Tang Li buried his face in Shen Yu's neck and took a deep breath. His breath was full of Shen Yu's fresh scent, which finally made the dizzy Tang Li feel better.
Shen Yu was shorter than Tang Li, and his figure was not as tall as Tang Li. He hugged Tang Li gently, as if he was holding a big doll.
He stroked Tang Li's back again and again.
When Tang Li calmed down a little, Shen Yu said slowly, "Do you want to go upstairs to drink?"
Tang Li shook his head in Shen Yu's neck.
Shen Yu was tickled by Tang Li's soft hair. He subconsciously stepped back, but noticed that Tang Li was stiff. He suddenly laughed and hugged Tang Li tighter, as if he wanted to pull Tang Li into his arms.
"You really don't want to go up?"
Tang Li continued to shake his head.
"Then I'll go up." Shen Yu suddenly let go of Tang Li and yawned slowly. "Anyway, you've seen him."
With that, he turned around and left.
Tang Li quickly grabbed Shen Yu's hand.
"I'll go up!"
In the end, he said worriedly, "Maybe grandpa is still angry with me."
Shen Yu held his hand and said with a sigh, "It's so late. Grandpa is already asleep."
That being said, when Shen Yu led Tang Li home, he was stunned.
The living room was brightly lit.
When Shen Yu came out, he was afraid of waking up Grandpa Shen who was sleeping soundly. Not to mention turning on the lights, he even tried his best not to make any noise when he walked. Grandpa Shen and Shen Yu lived in this house, so it was obvious who turned on the lights.
"What's wrong?" Tang Li looked at Shen Yu's stiff figure at the door and spoke carefully.
Shen Yu looked around but didn't see Old Master Shen.
He breathed a sigh of relief. "It's fine. Come in."
As he spoke, he found a pair of slippers for Tang Li.
Shen Yu didn't dare to stay in the living room. He took Tang Li to the bedroom and locked the door. His heart was finally at ease.
The light downstairs was not good. In addition, Shen Yu was held tightly by Tang Li just now, so he couldn't see Tang Li's face clearly. Now that he took a closer look under the bright light, he was startled.
Tang Li suddenly lost a lot of weight.
The corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of tiredness, and the dark circles under his eyes were a little obvious. At first glance, it was obvious that he hadn't slept well for many days.
He didn't know how long he had been waiting downstairs. His hair was a little messy from the wind, and he looked at Shen Yu pitifully. He looked a little silly.
Shen Yu sniffed, and his face didn't look very good.
The air was full of the smell of alcohol.
"How much did you drink?" Shen Yu pressed Tang Li to sit on the single-seater sofa.
Tang Li wanted to lie, but after meeting Shen Yu's questioning gaze, he didn't dare to lie. He shrunk his shoulders and whispered guiltily, "The people at the dinner party were all famous people. They kept drinking. I couldn't always hold it."
Shen Yu walked in front of Tang Li.
Tang Li was tall and had long legs. Sitting on the small single-seater sofa made him feel a little wronged. He raised his head and looked up at Shen Yu carefully. He also gently pulled the corner of Shen Yu's clothes with his index finger and thumb.
Shen Yu knew Tang Li's difficulties, so he didn't blame him at this time.
He just felt a little distressed.
He recalled that when he was 20 years old, he ate, drank, and played with his friends every day. He was so crazy that he didn't even want to go back to the school dormitory. However, Tang Li took on these things that he shouldn't have.
Shen Yu's eyes and nose were a little sore.
"You've worked hard." He took a breath and stroked Tang Li's hair.
"Not at all." Tang Li rubbed Shen Yu's palm like a cat. He narrowed his eyes and his expression was a little cold. "It will be over in two days."
Shen Yu wanted to ask what evidence Tang Li had found and what he planned to do next. But when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't ask.
He was afraid that his inquiry would hurt Tang Li again. Moreover, Tang Li was used to being independent since he was a child. Even when he joined Zhou Che's company and contacted the Tang family, he didn't disclose any information to him.
After thinking about it, Shen Yu swallowed those words back into his stomach.
"You sit here for a while. I'll get you a cup." Shen Yu patted Tang Li's head and turned to walk out of the bedroom.
When he was cooking in the kitchen, Shen Yu, who had his back to the door, heard a series of footsteps. He thought that Tang Li had come out.
"Didn't I ask you to rest in the bedroom?" Shen Yu turned his head and said, "Grandpa saw …"
The sound stopped in an instant.
The person who came was Grandpa Shen.
Grandpa Shen was wearing pajamas. He walked to the kitchen door and stopped. There was no expression on his face. He stared at Shen Yu with a complicated look in his eyes.
Shen Yu's forehead was overflowing with guilty sweat. "… Grandpa, why are you up?"
Grandpa Shen didn't speak. He looked at the pot in front of Shen Yu. After a long silence, he said, "There are ingredients in the fridge. Make a bowl of hangover soup for him."
Shen Yu: "…"
It turned out that Grandpa Shen not only knew that he brought Tang Li up, but also smelled the alcohol on Tang Li's body.
Shen Yu was a little guilty and a little scared. He didn't even dare to raise his head, let alone look into Grandpa Shen's eyes. He said "oh" in a low voice and then walked to the fridge with his head lowered.
There were so many ingredients in the fridge that Shen Yu was dazzled.
He didn't know how to make hangover soup. He stood in front of the fridge for a long time, not knowing which ingredients to take.
When Shen Yu was embarrassed, he suddenly heard Grandpa Shen's soft sigh.
"Let me do it." Grandpa Shen quietly squeezed to Shen Yu's side. "You go and take care of the child."
Shen Yu said "oh" again.
When he walked to the kitchen door, Shen Yu summoned his courage and turned to look at Grandpa Shen, who was picking ingredients. "Grandpa, I'm sorry."
Grandpa Shen didn't even look at him. "This is your own choice. Even if you made the wrong choice, you should apologize to yourself."
Shen Yu pursed his lips and quickly returned to the bedroom.
In the bedroom, Tang Li had been waiting for too long. He had curled up on the single sofa and fallen asleep. His limbs were long and slender, and he was tall. He looked even more pitiful when he was squeezed into the single sofa.
Shen Yu squatted beside the sofa and carefully looked at Tang Li's sleeping face.
Even if Tang Li looked so decadent and tired, it couldn't hide the beauty of his facial features. His beautiful outline seemed to be drawn by a famous Italian artist bit by bit. It was almost perfect.
After falling asleep, Tang Li's eyebrows were still slightly knitted, as if he was thinking about something very important in his dream.
Shen Yu gently tapped his eyebrows with his index finger.
His knitted eyebrows slowly relaxed.
Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He supported his chin with one hand and stared at Tang Li without blinking. It seemed that he couldn't get enough of looking at him.
It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that Shen Yu suddenly came back to his senses.
He got up and went to open the door.
Outside the door stood Old Master Shen, holding a bowl of soup with seasoning in his hand.
Shen Yu hurriedly took the bowl. His face was a little red. "Thank you, Grandpa."
Old Master Shen wanted to say something, but he stopped. In the end, he didn't say anything. He only told him to go to bed early.
Shen Yu closed the door and squatted in front of the sofa again with the bowl.
Tang Li was usually very obedient in front of Shen Yu. Now that he was drunk, he was even more obedient. He almost did whatever Shen Yu asked him to do. After drinking the hangover soup, he quietly went to the bathroom to take a shower under Shen Yu's instructions.
Shen Yu took the clothes that he didn't wear and stuffed them into Tang Li's arms. Then, he lay on the bed and played with his phone out of boredom.
After a while, Shen Yu gradually felt sleepy and fell asleep.
Ever since he came back from Jincheng, Shen Yu's sleep was very light. The slightest movement at night would easily wake him up.
But tonight, he slept very soundly. He didn't even know when Tang Li went to bed.
The 1.5-meter bed was still a little cramped for two big men. Shen Yu turned over and accidentally put his leg on Tang Li's body.
Tang Li's body temperature was higher. In the cold bed, he was like a big warm bag. Shen Yu's hands and feet were cold. When he touched Tang Li, he subconsciously wrapped himself around him.
The person in his arms was stiff. He didn't even dare to move.
&nb
After a long time, Shen Yu heard a soft sigh.
In the darkness, there was something warm sticking to Shen Yu's body. It was reluctant to part with her as it rubbed against her body, as if it was some kind of treasure.
The next day.
Shen Yu opened his eyes. He was the only one on the bed.
After recalling everything that happened last night, Shen Yu sat up from the bed. He hurriedly got out of bed, put on his slippers, and rushed out of the bedroom without even tidying up his clothes.
Old Master Shen, who was neatly dressed, was sitting on the sofa with an open newspaper on his lap.
Shen Yu: "Where's Tang Li?"
Old Master Shen took off his reading glasses and looked at him slowly.
"…" Shen Yu realized his rudeness. He was a little embarrassed and asked a little anxiously, "Grandpa, has Tang Li left?"
Old Master Shen shook his head helplessly and pointed to the kitchen with his chin. "He's much more diligent than you. He's been busy since early in the morning."
Shen Yu came to the kitchen and saw Tang Li's busy figure.
Hearing his footsteps approaching, Tang Li said without looking back, "Go and wash up. Breakfast will be ready soon."
"Oh." Shen Yu responded blankly. Then, he thought of something and asked, "You didn't even look back. How did you know who I was?"
Tang Li smiled and looked back at Shen Yu. His beautiful black eyes were like crystal clear obsidian. "I knew it was you when you walked out of the bedroom."
He shrugged. "I'm very sensitive to your voice, whether it's your voice or the sound you make."
"…"
Shen Yu was speechless.
Then, he slowly blushed.
Tang Li's cooking skills were good. The fried bread was just right, and the toast was just right. However, Old Master Shen kept a straight face, so the atmosphere at the dining table was a little depressing.
After breakfast, Tang Li took the initiative to clean up the mess.
Old Master Shen casually glanced at the flattering smile on Tang Li's face. He snorted from his nostrils, shook the newspaper he had just finished reading, and got up to go back to the bedroom.
Before the Shen family went bankrupt, Shen Yu and Tang Li were taken care of by Aunt Chen and Uncle Zhang. Shen Yu was even reluctant to let Tang Li move the flower pots, let alone cleaning and cooking.
Therefore, he had always thought that Tang Li lacked skills in life. This time, when he saw Tang Li skillfully washing the dishes and wiping the glass countertop, Shen Yu was so surprised that his jaw fell to the ground.
After Tang Li washed his hands, he turned around and saw Shen Yu's shocked face.
He couldn't help but feel funny. "What's wrong?"
Shen Yu silently pointed to the side. "There's a dishwasher there."
Tang Li: "It's just a few bowls. There's no need to waste electricity."
Shen Yu opened his eyes wide and looked at Tang Li.
He wanted to raise Tang Li into a noble young master who was superior and didn't do any household chores. He didn't expect that in the end, he raised a good man who was diligent and thrifty. No matter how he looked at it, this character was not associated with the word "villain".
Tang Li was much taller than Shen Yu. From his angle, he could see Shen Yu's white and delicate skin, as well as her slightly open mouth because of surprise, and her dense and long eyelashes were like small fans, fluttering.
They fluttered to the tip of Tang Li's heart.
Tang Li's heart was itching to touch Shen Yu's hair.
Therefore, it was better to act than to be tempted. He boldly raised his hand to touch it and gently touched it twice.
In the next second, Tang Li met Shen Yu's eyes and was suddenly shocked. The courage he had just now was instantly thrown away. He quickly withdrew his hand and stuttered nervously, "I, I'm sorry, I …"
Before he finished speaking, Shen Yu suddenly raised his hand and touched his neck.
Tang Li was stunned. For a moment, he was so nervous that he even forgot to breathe.
It wasn't until he felt a cold touch on his neck that his mind, which had long drifted away, gradually came back.
Shen Yu put a necklace on him.
That pendant was very familiar.
Tang Li was stunned for half a minute. Then he picked up the pendant with his fingertips and looked down at it.
It was a little golden mouse.
The one that was taken away by Shen Yu a few months ago.
Shen Yu scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I broke the previous chain. I replaced it with a similar chain. Now this thing is finally returned to its original owner."
Tang Li had an incredulous expression on his face.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Shen Yu thought that he didn't like the new chain. He was a little anxious all of a sudden. Out of reflex, he took off the chain that was already on Tang Li's neck.
"If you don't like it, I can go and change it again."
"No." Tang Li suddenly pressed his hand.
"???" Shen Yu looked at Tang Li with a puzzled expression.
"I like it very much." Tang Li lowered his eyes. Although his expression looked unusually calm, the red corners of his eyes betrayed his emotions. He opened his mouth and said, "Thank you."
Shen Yu smiled, stroked Tang Li's cheek, and wiped the corners of his eyes with his thumb.
"You're welcome."
"Thank you, Shen Yu." Suddenly, the tears overflowing from the corners of Tang Li's eyes soaked Shen Yu's fingertips. He hugged Shen Yu very tightly and was unwilling to let go for the rest of his life. "I'm so stupid and so bad. I've always gotten into trouble since I was a child. I even hurt you and grandpa. You're still willing to give me a chance."
Shen Yu stroked Tang Li's back and said, "I'm just giving myself a chance."
In fact, Shen Yu was very uncertain.
Hui Jing repeatedly warned him to stay away from Tang Li, but he didn't do it in the end.
He even had a glimmer of hope.
In the past six months, he hadn't been in frequent contact with Tang Li, but they hadn't completely cut off contact. Tang Li had also gone further and further astray from the original plot line.
However, Shen Yu's life was not affected at all.
Perhaps …
The backlash that Hui Jing said had ended.
Taking a step back, even if he was ignored by others again, he would accept it. At least Tang Li could still see him.
In this world, only Tang Li understood him.
A week later.
The Tang family, which had suffered a great loss due to the separation of the family assets, received another heavy blow.
Someone anonymously revealed on the forum that ten years ago, in order to annex a new dark horse company, the Tang family did not hesitate to arrange spies to steal the company's project information and customer list. They even used verbal violence to kill the couple who ran the company.
What was even more infuriating was that the couple also belonged to the Tang family.
This revelation was quickly forwarded to Weibo. The resourceful netizens began to dig out all the details of the Tang family and their complicated grievances.
The topic # Tang family # once rushed to the top three trending searches.
Due to the netizens' constant calls and @'s, the local police official Weibo had to come forward and say that they would be involved in the investigation.
The next day, all the Tang family members, including Tang Li, were taken to the police station for interrogation.
When Shen Yu received the news from Uncle Zhang, he was so scared that he couldn't even continue with the meeting. He immediately put down his responsibilities and dragged Aunt Chen to the police station where Tang Li was.
They waited from noon to night.
Shen Yu sat silently on a chair in the police station. He didn't talk to anyone, nor did he eat a meal.
Aunt Chen was extremely anxious, but she couldn't do anything about it.
At 9: 30 p.m., Tang Li finally walked out of the interrogation room, followed by Tang Ming.
Tang Ming was comforting Tang Li in a low voice. When he looked up and saw Shen Yu getting up and walking over, he suddenly stopped talking. After hesitating for a moment, he patted Tang Li on the shoulder and sensibly left first.
Tang Li didn't look well and looked a little weak. He stood there and watched Shen Yu approach, trying to squeeze out a very reluctant smile.
"They're finished," Tang Li said as if nothing had happened.
Shen Yu sighed and directly hugged Tang Li without saying anything.
"Congratulations," Shen Yu said.
"So many people are watching." Tang Li hugged Shen Yu back, and his originally disappointed heart was filled in an instant. "Later, those people on the Internet will think about our relationship again."
Shen Yu knew that Tang Li was referring to the time when he was criticized for Du Pingting. He let go of Tang Li and tapped the tip of his nose. "Are they wrong?"
Tang Li was stunned and then smiled. "Yes, very right."
Shen Yu: "Let's go."
"Where are we going?"
"Find a place to eat," Shen Yu dragged out his tone. "Then go home."
Tang Li took his hand, and his eyes almost overflowed with love. "Okay."
