Perhaps because he had just been slammed into the wall with his head pressed continuously, Xin Rong had a vague memory of everything that happened after Shao Chengyun appeared.
The tight string in his brain was loosened at once, and the last impression was that the perpetrators of the violence were knocked down one by one, Shao Chengyun pulled the child out of his arms, and a coat was immediately draped over his body...
The memory was frozen, reversed, and in the instant he fell out of strength, he returned to this early morning.
Xin Rong woke up on the large bed in the cruise suite, the sour feeling like a vine climbing on his limbs, and even turning over would involve a secret pain.
The room was empty, and Shao Chengyun didn't know where he had gone.
Xin Rong lay stupidly for a while, then slowly sat up, and when he got out of bed and dressed, he fell to the ground without standing.
He himself was also very confused about this fall, and it seemed that he had never been so embarrassed in his memory, and his body did not look like his own.
When he was still in school, he was always the most physically fit student in the class, and every year the school sports day could take several awards on behalf of the class, but when it came to Shao Chengyun, this physical ability was simply not worth mentioning.
Xin Rong rubbed his head, stood up and went to the bathroom, did not dare to look at the mirror when passing by the washstand, from his neck to his waist and legs, all of which were bruises that Shao Chengyun kissed out or pinched out. Thinking about yesterday's half-day-long madness, every detail of it seemed to still have a searing heat until this time, and the extremely aggressive male force emitted from Shao Chengyun's body had been encroaching on him, making him out of control and making him powerless to resist.
Hot water spilled down from the sprinkler, Xin Rong slowly squatted down, and the whole person curled up on the tile floor and drenched his head for a while.
It's a very helpless gesture. He was quite panicked, Shao Chengyun threw him on the bed and left himself, Xin Rong didn't know what that meant, and he didn't know what to do next.
Speaking of regret, Xin Rong is not a person who can talk about regret. Sleeping with Shao Chengyun was voluntary, and he also had a little illusion of being loved when he kissed and hugged and gasped passionately.
But he preferred to believe that Shao Chengyun had left him for his own benefit. Making love may be like adding weight, they have a closer relationship, Xin Rong can not easily withdraw.
In just a few minutes of taking a bath, he couldn't clear his thoughts, and when he thought that Shao Chengyun might be coming back, Xin Rong couldn't even find a suitable look to face him.
The cruise ship will dock in less than half an hour, and the harbor, lighthouse and city outline are already faintly visible in the distance. Xin Rong took a shower, hurriedly cleaned up, and finally made a somewhat evasive decision, taking advantage of the fact that Shao Chengyun had not yet returned, leaving the suite with 123 and a bag of garbage.
He first went to the manager's office to get a pre-departure approval, and then walked with Meng Donglin.
Fearing that Meng Donglin would see something unusual, he deliberately wore a submachine jacket with a zipper in order to cover the marks on his neck.
Meng Donglin first heard that his voice was hoarse, and Xin Rong pushed that he was cold and cold, so it made sense to get off the ship early, and it was not strange to wear more coats. <
Meng Donglin originally wanted to take him around to see his upcoming bar, just in the CBD business circle, where the land is very expensive, and there are many potential customers, and it is estimated that the opening can be a fire. But turning his head to see Xin Rong sitting in the co-driver, looking slightly tired, Meng Donglin did not want to open his mouth, directly drove him back to the residence of Tongmiao Street, before leaving, he did not forget to persuade him, at the end of the year, this place will not renew the lease, living in people's hearts is not steadfast.
Xin Rong said yes, said "Thank you Brother Dong", lifted the duffel bag in one hand and got out of the car, and then stood at the entrance of the building to watch Meng Donglin turn around and drive out of the community, before turning upstairs.
When he got home, he threw a bag of dirty clothes into the washing machine and changed the sofa bed with a bed cover. It has not been back for two weeks, there is a layer of ash on the bed and the floor, more cleaning Xin Rong can not do it for a while, after changing the bed cover, he will lie down on it, accompanied by the dull noise emitted by the washing machine, he quickly fell asleep.
This sleep was too heavy, during which Shao Chengyun called him several times, and Xin Rong slept unconsciously. Later, he was awakened by a knock at the door, and a childish voice passed through the door panel and came into his ear intermittently, "Brother, brother, are you at home...?"
Xin Rong sat up violently, opened his eyes to the dark room, and then jumped out of bed to open the door.
The voice-activated lights on the corridor were broken, and Xin Rong saw a small silhouette holding a half-old doll, standing outside the door looking up at herself. It was dark all around, except for the bright eyes. <
Xin Rong's heart tightened, turned on the light in the room, and then saw that the side of the little girl's forehead was bruised and swollen, he crouched down and asked her, "Sugar Sugar, what about your mother?" This is
one of the main reasons why Xin Rong did not move from here, he could not let go of the landlord's little daughter.
This child was beaten often. The landlord and husband are not good stubble, often quarreling and fighting between the two sons, and then turning to get angry at the child. Scared a four-year-old child to hide outside the unit building and dare not go home in the middle of the night.
The name Sugar Sugar was given by Xin Rong, and in private, when the two of them stayed, he called it a child. Originally, sugar sugar had other nicknames, which were not good, and made people feel that the blessing was shallow. As soon as Xin Rong returned to the rental house, he took her to his side, cooked for her, let her sleep in the house, and occasionally teased her and called her sugar candy, hoping to have a good meaning and make her life sweeter later.
However, Xin Rong's ability was always limited, and in the first half of the year, he had a hard time convincing the neighborhood committee to come forward, and secretly paid for the neighborhood committee to set up a full school for Sugar Sugar, sent her to a kindergarten far away, and only returned home on weekends, in order to reduce her time with her parents.
Unexpectedly, Sugar Sugar only went to the first week, and her mother went to school to say that she would not read, let the money be refunded, and then turned around and lost the more than 8,000 tuition fees that Xin Rong had paid in advance on the mahjong table.
At this time, Xin Rong picked up the child and listened to her whisper, "Mom has been gone for several days and has not returned, Dad said... SShe ran away with someone..."
Xin Rong frowned, hugged the child in her arms tightly, and asked her if she had eaten? The little girl said no, Xin Rong hurriedly found some snacks for her from the refrigerator, let her pad first, and then prepare to cook some noodles.
The landlord came to the door about ten minutes later, and as soon as Sugar Sugar heard the hoarse male voice, he jumped up from the small stool in fright and hid behind Xin Rong.
Xin Rong did not open the door, first pushed her gently down to the balcony, saying that you sit there eating cookies, and your brother and your father talked. Well, don't be afraid.
The landlord had drunk a lot of wine before he came, and there were still a few brothers sitting in the house, and a group of people were discussing how to arrest his wife who had run away. He inadvertently passed by the bedroom and found that his little girl was missing, so he came to Xin Rong to get his daughter back.
Xin Rong tried to have a good chat with him, but before he could say a few words, the landlord moved his hands in a brutal manner. One-on-one single-handed Xin Rong will not suffer losses, knock people down a few times, and then close the door to listen to a roar outside.
These years of groping and beating have also given Xin Rong enough vigilance, he heard a group of people shouting down from the upstairs, knowing that the situation was not good, so he grabbed the wallet mobile phone, picked up the child, and jumped out of the window directly.
However, before they could run to the door of the community, they were intercepted by several people who rushed out.
Xin Rong could not fight against the opponents of the four adult men, not to mention that he still had to protect the child in his arms. Before Shao Chengyun arrived, he had already been robbed of his mobile wallet by the gang, and was dragged back into the corridor and beaten for seven or eight minutes. Xin Rong choked on a mouthful of blood in his throat, and his eyes were swollen so much that he couldn't open them, and at that moment he really thought he would die here tonight.
How could Shao Chengyun have imagined that the person who was still lying around him this morning would be such a heart-wrenching miserable situation when he said goodbye.
He and his bodyguards joined forces to knock those people to the ground, and the film policemen who did not know which neighbor called the police also arrived at the scene at about the same time.
Xin Rong's hands were covered in blood, his shirt was torn, and there were burns on his face and body that were burned by cigarette butts. The men had deliberately beaten him with a cigarette in their hands, but he had taken great care of the child, and the sugar in his arms did not hurt at all.
The irrepressible rage on Shao Chengyun's body frightened the two film policemen who were out of the scene. He was tall, because he had just fought, and he could even see the bulging green tendons on his neck and forearm. When the film police arrived, they saw that the four perpetrators had all taken off their pants, and were tied with their hands behind their respective pants and belts, and they lay on the ground screaming.
The bodyguard picked up the little girl and went to drive, and Shao Chengyun's wireless headphones were connected to the lawyer, allowing the other party to quickly rush to deal with the follow-up.
Xin Rong struggled in his arms for a moment, half squinting his eyes, a little in disbelief, and asked, "Shao Zong... How did you get here...?
Shao Chengyun's eyes fell, staring at his bloodied face, and said in a cold voice, "Run, I'll let you run." See if you dare to run next time. He was extremely angry, didn't speak well, and carried a wave of anger. Xin Rong was always a little afraid of him, and when he said this, the whole person shrank into his suit jacket.
Shao Chengyun's heart softened again, there was still a lawyer listening in the headphones, and the two film policemen also walked over to him, he hugged Xin Rong tightly, not caring at all about the perception of others, nor did he care about the mud on the boy's face, he bowed his head and kissed him on the forehead, slowed down and said, "It's all right, give it to me."
