Bai Lu thought that she had been like this before. Her mother's car accident, the cruel truth, SARS, miscarriage … When all the blows hit her at the same time, she was in a mess. In her panic, she only wanted to hold on to the only warmth.
People who were angry couldn't think from another person's perspective, but they could calm down when they chose to take a step back. When she stood in his shoes and looked at the car accident from his perspective, she thought that she could choose to forgive.
This should be a kind of love for the house, right?
But now …
How could she play dumb and pretend that she didn't know anything now that she knew?
"… I was at the corner of the long corridor just now." Bai Lu lowered his voice and said slowly, "I heard everything you said to your mother. I was very surprised, but I felt like I understood some things that I couldn't understand before. For so many years, I didn't know how my father died. My mother never mentioned this topic in front of me. Now I know that there's more to it than meets the eye. Am I right? Please tell me. "
…
Liang Feifan frowned. Before he came in, he knew what she would ask him, but when he really faced her, he still found it hard to say.
Did he really have to lay out such a complicated past in front of her and let her see for herself how bloody that past was?
Why was it that when the two of them finally got close to each other, a huge mountain had to fall between them?
If she knew that Bai Yi's death back then had something to do with her father, would she still be sitting in front of him so calmly?
Liang Feifan was in a difficult position. His heart was in a mess. He had all kinds of feelings. There was a kind of unbearable anxiety rolling in his body. He couldn't hold it in. He lit a cigarette and frowned as he took two puffs. Then he remembered that he was in a hospital ward and Bai Lu was sitting beside him. He reached out to put out the cigarette.
"Bai Lu, do you still remember what I told you before?" Liang Feifan muttered to himself for a moment and said carefully, "It's not that I don't want to tell you some things, but I don't think there's a need for you to know. I don't want to deliberately hide anything from you. I just want to protect you. "
"Your so-called protection might not be what I want. Everyone has the right to know. I already know half of what happened to my parents. I can't pretend that nothing happened. "
"… Bai Lu."
"If you really don't want to tell me, I can go look for Chu Weiye. If I really want to know, I have a way to find out. But I hope that you'll tell me this personally," Bai Lu seriously interrupted Liang Feifan's evasiveness.
She mentioned "Chu Weiye" to provoke Liang Feifan. She knew that this man's pride and possessiveness would never allow her to look for Chu Weiye. That was the only way he would tell her what she wanted to know.
As expected, Liang Feifan's eyes darkened. He reached out and pulled Bai Lu into his arms. He held the back of her neck with one hand and stroked her cheek with the other. His voice was low and tense as he said, "In the future, don't mention Chu Weiye in front of me. You know that I don't like it when you mention those three words in front of me. I can tell you what you want to know. But I hope that you can stay calm and don't drag my relationship with you into this. If you can do it, I'll tell you. "
Bai Lu's thoughts were considered careful, so when Liang Feifan said, "I can tell you, but I hope that you can stay calm and don't drag my relationship with you into this." She had already keenly sensed that the incident back then was definitely not simple.
Her father was related to Li Tanglin. Did that mean that his death was also related to Li Tanglin?
She furrowed her brows and felt a chill in her heart. She could accept that her mother had been in a car accident, but did she have to accept her father's death as well?
She felt sad. She didn't know anything and made wild guesses. That was the scariest thing. But the truth was right in front of her. When she could touch it but didn't dare to reach out, it was as if there were two souls in her body tearing at each other.
Pain and sorrow washed over him.
She knew that she should face it bravely, but after facing it, could she still let everything return to its original point? Or could she stand in a situation that she couldn't face?
Bai Lu didn't answer immediately. Liang Feifan only felt the uneasiness in his heart grow stronger. He hugged her tighter, and his deep voice was tinged with a hint of dominance. "Bai Lu, I hope that you can understand that I never intended to hide everything from you. I knew that one day you would find out. I just didn't expect it to be so soon, but it doesn't matter when. If you want to know, I'll let you know. But before I let you know, I'll make it clear to you that in this life, you are my wife, Liang Feifan. Don't ever think of running away from me. "
Bai Lu pursed her lips and didn't say anything. Her mind was in a mess.
Liang Feifan didn't get a response, so he simply reached out and clasped the back of her head. He lowered his head and kissed her hard on the lips.
She pursed her lips stubbornly. Although she didn't show too much resistance, there was still some resistance. Liang Feifan's eyes darkened. A deep desire accompanied by anxiety made him reach out and clasp her chin. With a little force, Bai Lu immediately made an "oh" sound. The crown of her teeth was pried open, and the tip of Liang Feifan's tongue immediately probed in. He found her tongue and sucked hard. Bai Lu only felt a wave of numbness on the tip of her tongue. She frowned and wanted to push him away, but he hugged her even tighter. The two of them were originally sitting on the sofa, but Liang Feifan simply reached out and wrapped his arms around her armpits. Ignoring her struggles, he let her sit in an ambiguous position on his lap.
It wasn't that she hadn't experienced his kisses before. From the beginning, it was ambiguous and gentle. Later, it was lingering, deep, and domineering. But in this moment, his kiss was ferocious with a hint of uneasiness.
Bai Lu felt that she should comfort him, but when she thought about what Li Tanglin said, she couldn't remain indifferent.
It was uncomfortable. Her soul felt like it was being controlled by a pair of invisible black hands, tearing it apart. There was no way to stop the otherworldly killer in the city.
She struggled, but Liang Feifan refused to let go. He kissed her even more deeply and skillfully. In the end, she softened in his arms. Feeling that she was having trouble breathing, Liang Feifan finally let go of her.
His breathing was heavy. His forehead was pressed against hers. His deep eyes burned as he stared at the delicate cheek that was a little red from his kisses.
"Now, you want to run away from me?"
"…?" Bai Lu bit her lip. She didn't answer.
Liang Feifan's deep eyes flickered. He reached out and pressed his hand against her lips. Suppressing his desire to sigh, he said, "Don't be like this, okay? What do you want me to do? "
…
"Wifey." His voice sounded a little weak. He reached out and gently lifted her chin. "Look at me."
Bai Lu's reddened eyes met Liang Feifan's deep gaze. She looked at her reflection in his eyes and suddenly felt that she couldn't be like this. Actually, she had already thought it through. She wanted to face it. Why was she being so evasive now?
She secretly took a deep breath and finally spoke. Her voice was a little hoarse. "… Tell me what I want to know now. How did my dad die? "
"Have you thought it through?"
Bai Lu nodded. "Yes."
…
Liang Feifan reached out and held her waist. He pulled her into his arms. Bai Lu didn't resist. Resisting would make him feel uneasy. She felt that, so she allowed him to hug her intimately.
He was silent for a long time. After a while, he spoke. His deep voice sounded particularly clear and sharp in the quiet room.
"I don't know where to start. You heard my conversation with my mother just now. You should know that my mother … when she was young, she fell in love with your father. My mother was a woman from a scholarly family. My grandfather was a person who valued matching social status. He didn't agree with the relationship between my mother and your father, so he used many means to break them up. In the end, he got what he wanted and broke them up. "
"I don't know what my grandfather said to your father back then, but I think you should know that your father was a man of integrity. He must have said some unpleasant things to force your father and my mother to break up. However, all these years, my mother didn't know that my grandfather was the one behind their breakup. She thought that your father had abandoned her. In a fit of anger, she agreed to the proposal of the man she fell in love with at first sight — my father. After more than 20 years of marriage, she had never forgotten your father. I think that in this lifetime, your father is probably the only one she has ever loved. "
Liang Feifan paused. He felt a little bitter in his throat. He gestured for Bai Lu to sit beside him and then asked, "Can I smoke?"
Bai Lu knew that he only smoked fiercely when he was frustrated.
She controlled her emotions. After hearing the first half of what happened back then, she nodded calmly.
Liang Feifan lit a cigarette. He got up from the sofa and walked to the window. He drew the curtains and pushed open the windows to get rid of the smell of smoke in the room. He didn't want her to inhale too much second-hand smoke.
Bai Lu looked at Liang Feifan's tall and straight figure standing by the window. The warm sunlight fell on his body. His exquisite features contained a hint of coldness. Because he was standing a little far away, his voice sounded a little distant.
