"She drank too much," Xu Yihan sighed, "I will give her a room at the hotel where the other authors are staying, and then I will leave—it is the hotel in front, see? Or if you are really worried, go there with the two of you also."

Wu Yan frowned, and said to Manager Wu: "Boss Xu and I have known each other for a long time...don't worry."

Manager Wu looked at Xu Yihan, then at Wu Yan, and finally sighed: "The girl is alone, and she is afraid of encountering such a thing. Mr. Xu, today I am meddling, don't mind."

Xu Yihan responded, "I know."

After Audi drove away, Xu Yihan let go of Wu Yan's hand and asked, "What did she say when you two added WeChat?"

"She typed on the screen and said, tell me not to drink, be careful, she is waiting for me downstairs."

Xu Yihan nodded: "This guy is not bad," he said incredulously, "What kind of wine are you drinking? Didn't you see what the old man meant?"

Wu Yan was so drunk that she simply sat down on the side of the road.

"I can see that "The Story of Shadow Flowers" has not been published for three years, and he suddenly mentioned this matter...it was...very strange."

"It's strange that you still go up!" Xu Yihan said angrily, "It's okay now, not only you offended him, but also Weilan offended him, there will be more troubles in the future!"

In fact, Xu Yihan knew in his heart that his irritability was not all due to offending President Jin, but a larger part came from Wu Yan. Her silly and weak appearance on the wine table made him inevitably think of Deng Yuan.

"I know him, and I have no good intentions," Wu Yan lowered her head, resting her forehead on her knees, "but what if he can really help me publish "Shadow Flowers"?"

"If he can help you publish, you will sleep with him?!"

"Mr. Xu," Wu Yan smiled sullenly. Xu Yihan couldn't see her expression, but felt that her laughter was a bit sad, "To be honest, I wouldn't sleep with him, but if it can be published, let him It’s okay to take advantage of it.”

Xu Yihan: "..."

"That story, I conceived it for half a year, wrote it for half a year, and added up to a whole year... Oh, of course, I understand, in the eyes of you big shots, my year is nothing, and hundreds of thousands of words are nothing , who told me not to be popular?" Wu Yan murmured, "But it is different to me, it is my painstaking effort, and I know how every word of it came from... The contract was also signed, Am I willing to accept that I can’t publish it because of the subject matter? I’m sure not.”

"You are writing about sensitive subjects, who do you blame?" Xu Yihan said indifferently, "Are you complaining about the system? But what is the use of complaining about the system? This is not something you can change."

"Yes, it's useless for me to blame anyone. This story has already been written like this, and it really can't be published." Wu Yan hiccupped and said vaguely, "But I won't be reconciled, oh, you think 'not reconciled' "It's meaningless, right? You only look at the reality, you only look at the results, you don't care whether we are willing or not... Just like Deng Yuan, you also think that those things he did are useless, don't you? You don't care about him I don't care what he thinks, because what he did can't change anything, so it's meaningless..."

Xu Yihan interrupted Wu Yan irritably: "Stop talking, get up, and I'll take you to the hotel." He had already started to regret, why did he reason with a drunk female author?It's impossible to say, and it doesn't make sense.

Wu Yan sat still: "I have known Deng Yuan and the others...for four years...sometimes I feel that what I do is the same as what they do, writing, showing love...we do these things, and It didn't make us rich, become famous, or even keep giving us pain..."

Xu Yihan's patience was completely exhausted: "Are you going? If you don't, I'm going. You can just sit here." Without waiting for Wu Yan, she walked forward alone.

"Mr. Xu, you, do you want to know?" Wu Yan asked slowly behind Xu Yihan, "Why is Deng Yuan with you?"

Xu Yihan's footsteps stopped, his heart seemed to tremble in his chest, and he asked calmly, "Why?"

"Because..." Wu Yan's voice was very low, so low that it was almost covered by the sound of cars driving on the road.

"He hasn't seen his family for many, many years."

Chapter 84

The air was extremely hot that night, and in the second half of the night, it began to rain in Shanghai.The raindrops became more and more rapid, hitting the glass cracklingly, Xu Yihan closed his eyes, and heard two faint thunderclaps.

Then the rain became heavier and heavier, and the sound of the rain drowned out all other sounds, and this rainy night was unexpectedly quiet.

Xu Yihan was lying on the bed of the hotel, the rain was like a piece of transparent mud, covering the entire room.And his phone turned off automatically after the battery ran out.At this moment, Xu Yihan seemed to be cut off from the world, except for the sound of rain in his ears, it was his own heartbeat.

Boom—boom—boom—a very regular heartbeat.

Xu Yihan felt that he was calm enough, he recalled Wu Yan's words carefully, like a cautious cheetah, slowly approaching his prey.

Wu Yan said that because he hadn't seen his family for a long, long time.

Xu Yihan felt that this was wrong. First of all, has Deng Yuan really not seen his family for a long, long time?But one day not long ago, he clearly told Xu Yihan about the two osmanthus trees in the village.Well, taking a step back, even if he really hasn't seen his family for a long, long time, is this enough to constitute the reason why he and Xu Yihan are together?

Wu Yan said again, do you know that kind of organization?Quit Internet addiction, drug addiction, gambling addiction, homosexuality... In short, you can quit anything.

Xu Yihan: "What did you say?"

"There have been media reports on Shandong's Internet Addiction Rehabilitation School before," Wu Yan's voice was trembling, the night sky flashed, and thunder came from behind the clouds a few seconds later—boom! "There are also cases in Shanxi and Henan... did you know that they beat people to death and used electric shocks when they were quitting addictions?"

Xu Yihan turned around, he was standing, Wu Yan was sitting, and he looked down at Wu Yan from above.There seemed to be someone's voice in the distance, hurriedly said, it's going to rain.

"You didn't lie?"

"I'm not lying," Wu Yan still rested her forehead on her knees and closed her eyes, "The institution Deng Yuan was sent to is in Henan."

"What addiction is he quitting?"

"It's called 'Er Yizi' in northern dialect, which means...neither male nor female. 16595.com"

"When?"

"Twenty...[-]."

"Who sent him there?" Bang—thunder struck again.

"His parents told him that a relative opened a factory in Zhengzhou, and tricked him into going there," Wu Yan paused, "If you enter that kind of place, you can't get out."

"I know——I know," Xu Yihan took a few steps on the spot, then suddenly turned around and pressed Wu Yan's shoulder, and said sharply, "Can you stand up and talk? Can you speak louder?"

Wu Yan got up, her steps were unsteady.

Xu Yihan said to himself: "He was sent in in 23, at the age of [-], um, that was seven years ago." He looked sideways at Wu Yan, his eyes like knives, "When did he come out?"

"It was also [-]...he only stayed there for two months."

"why?"

"because……"

Boom—chūn thunder rolling, as if some kind of opening notice.Wu Yan blinked, spread out her palms, and murmured: "It's raining."

"Well," Xu Yihan stood still, "How did he get out?"

The fine raindrops fell on Xu Yihan's eyelashes, and his vision became a bit blurred. Everything was indistinct blobs of light and shadow, yellow ones, red ones, black ones... He couldn't see anything clearly.

"Deng Yuan met a friend there, named Cheng Xiaobai, who was also gender-aware. Later, Cheng Xiaobai jumped off the building. On the night he jumped off the building, Deng Yuan took advantage of it and ran away."

"Well, Cheng Xiaobai. Does he really want to play "The Legend of the White Snake"? He plays the White Snake, and Deng Yuan plays the Green Snake?"

"Yeah...Cheng Xiaobai has a slight paranoia, good times and bad days."

Xu Yihan wiped the water from his face, and said calmly: "Okay, I see, I'll take you to the hotel."

Just a few short sentences, one sentence after another silently, and it didn't take long to finish reading.Xu Yihan stared straight at the snow-white ceiling of the room, trying to deduce a certain conclusion from these few words.It's kind of like doing math, because, so, because, so, it proves... what?A corner of Deng Yuan's life was revealed by him, and the proof was dripping with blood.

Xu Yihan didn't dare to charge the phone, he knew that once the phone was turned on, he couldn't help but call Deng Yuan, or click into Deng Yuan's live broadcast room - it was a failure, but that's all.At this time, he only needs to stick to the word "forbearance". He is best at this "forbearance". He can endure seeing his mother being beaten, endure wild rumors and contemptuous glances, endure all kinds of shame, and now he can only endure one more, sister ——he whispered in his heart, I'll bear your part for you, okay?After getting through this hurdle, I will be proud from now on, and you will fly away, sister, let's bear with it.
