In the next few days, Hu Tao has been working as a quiet coder, and Ling Yeshen occasionally comes to school to see her.
On her birthday, she made an appointment with Chen Wenxuan and the others for a simple meal. Ling Yeshen ordered a cake for her and asked her to blow out the candles and make a wish.
She really likes this kind of life, as if the days when she used to roll in the mud every day, do hard work, or go to the garbage dump to pick up discarded bottles and cardboard and sell them to the waste recycling station, seem like a dream.
She is so far away.
Now Hutao can even wake up from his dreams with a smile.
The New Year will be coming in less than a month, and Hutao is planning to go home to celebrate the New Year this year.
It seems that she has almost never been home since she went to college.
I am busy studying during the week and working part-time during holidays.
Now I can go back and have a good New Year.
Because there are no classes in school, she is preparing to leave early.
Unexpectedly, there was a fire in Qushi, which also disrupted Hu Tao's plan to return home.
Her plan to return home can only be canceled first.
Because something happened to Ling Yechen.
It was already nine o'clock the next morning when Hu Tao received the call.
"Hutao, come to Tianxinyuan quickly, something happened to my brother."
Hu Tao was reading a book when Chen Wenxuan called.
"What happened?" Hu Tao asked calmly, mainly because she couldn't think of what would happen. When Chen Wenxuan said he came to Tianxinyuan, she thought Chen Wenxuan was going to do something.
Unexpectedly, Chen Wenxuan said again: "I can't explain a word or two now. Come here quickly. There was a fire last night and my brother's hotel was burned down."
When Hutao heard that the hotel was burned down, she immediately shouted: "What, the hotel was burned down, is your brother okay?"
Hutao didn't watch the news and didn't know what happened last night, but she was really anxious this time.
She stood up quickly: "Wait, come right away."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Even what Chen Wenxuan said: "I drove slowly and didn't even hear it."
Along the way, Hu Tao analyzed what Chen Wenxuan had just said to her on the phone. Asking her to come to Tianxinyuan instead of the hospital meant that she must be fine.
But considering that there was a fire, and it must be quite serious, Ling Yechen must be in a bad mood now.
Unexpectedly, after Hu Tao arrived, Ling Yechen was more serious than expected.
The house is a mess.
Things were smashed into pieces.
Just like when Ling Yechen went crazy.
When she entered, Chen Wenxuan and Mu Chen were holding a rope to tie Ling Yechen.
Ling Yechen was pressed on the sofa by them.
My hands and feet are tied.
Hu Tao rushed in and saw such a scene.
Ling Yechen's eyes were red and he struggled hard.
"What's wrong with him?" Hutao was shocked and distressed.
Chen Wenxuan said: "You are here, talk to him quickly."
Hu Tao quickly ran to his side and called him twice: "Ling Yechen, wake up."
Hutao had already realized what was going on from the moment she saw him being tied up.
She will never forget when he jumped off the cliff in front of her.
She asked Chen Wenxuan: "If you let him go, will he commit suicide?"
Chen Wenxuan: "How do you know? My brother seems to be unconscious now. All he can think about is death."
Hutao: "I understand, please let him go. His hands were injured by him."
When Hong Tianyu heard Hu Tao say that he had to untie the rope, he immediately refused and said, "No, no, the three of us almost didn't hold him down just now. If we untie him, something will happen."
Ling Yechen seemed to hear Hu Tao's voice, and his struggling movements were not as intense as before.
"Look, he can hear me. Please untie him. I believe he will be fine."
Mu Chen looked at Ling Yechen, then at Hu Tao, and then said to Chen Wenxuan: "How about you give it a try, continuing like this is not an option."
Hu Tao also looked at Chen Wenxuan, hoping that Chen Wenxuan would give a positive answer.
Chen Wenxuan really has a big head. Why should he make a decision? It’s really difficult for him.
Uncertainly, he asked Hutao: "Is it really possible? Do you know why my brother is like this?"
Hu Tao nodded firmly and said: "Well, let's try. You just said on the phone that the hotel was on fire. Did someone die? Did Ling Yeshen see it?"
Chen Wenxuan did not expect that Hu Tao even knew this: "You all know that my brother told you about his illness?"
Hu Tao said: "Well, I heard him say before, let him go quickly. He attended two funerals with me before and it was fine. I think he will be fine this time too."
Mu Chen also urged: "Try it. You see, after Hutao comes, he seems to be less excited."
Chen Wenxuan gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.
Hu Tao kept holding Ling Yeshen's hand and kept saying, "Don't be afraid, I'll untie it for you right away. Just be obedient, okay?"
The other three boys worked for a while before untying the rope.
After the rope was untied, Ling Yechen was still a little excited.
His eyes were red and dull, like a walking zombie that wanted to hit the wall.
It shocked a few people.
Hutao hugged his waist directly.
But he was too strong. Hutao was thrown away by him and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Hong Tianyu held him.
"Are you okay?" Hong Tianyu asked her.
Mu Chen and Chen Wenxuan, on the other hand, dragged him tightly and refused to let him move.
Hu Tao immediately stood up and called him again, but after calling several times, Ling Yeshen, except that his movements were a little smaller, was still struggling fiercely.
As soon as Chen Wenxuan and Mu Chen relaxed a little, Ling Yechen broke away from their hands and rushed directly to the window.
Hu Tao was so frightened that her courage almost broke, while Chen Wenxuan and others were stunned.
By the time they reacted and were about to arrest the person, Hutao had already grabbed Ling Yeshen's clothes one step faster than them, and they didn't know how much force he used.
Directly threw Ling Yechen to the ground.
Then he directly slapped Ling Yechen three or four times.
Chen Wenxuan and the others opened their mouths like eggs.
Just by looking at my eyes, I didn’t close my mouth for a long time.
Hutao was scared and anxious, so she hit Ling Yeshen harshly, and while beating him, she cursed: "If you jump, you will die, you bastard, you scare me like this every time, don't you want to die?"
No, I'll beat you to death."
Bang, bang, bang, hit it a few more times, but fortunately, I didn’t slap my face this time.
He kept shouting: "What can't you think about? Ling Yechen, I'm going to fucking tell you, if you still do this in the future, I won't marry you."
Hu Tao was still cursing and scratching and beating, but he didn't notice that Ling Yechen had completely quieted down. He lay quietly on the ground and let Hu Tao beat him.
Hutao was crying, cursing and beating, but did not notice Ling Yechen's condition. Instead, Chen Wenxuan shouted excitedly: "Hutao Hutao, stop beating, my brother seems to be awake."
