There was a knock on the door, and the girl brought in a bowl of glutinous rice balls, which had just been cooked, as ordered by Cheng Hanliang.

Cheng Hanliang picked up the spoon, scooped it a few times in the bowl, took out a dumpling, and blew it on his mouth.

When the spoon was handed over, Li Langyu was unmoved, and the wordless indifference was a rejection.

Cheng Hanliang said: "If you plan to starve to death, it will save my heart."

Li Langyu raised his chin and snatched the spoon and bowl over. The steaming soup was still a little hot, but he seemed to have closed all his senses, buried his head and took a big mouthful. It was obviously a favorite food, but it seemed to be covered with thorns, so that his body was full of fuzzy flesh.

Suddenly, he coughed violently, tears choked from his eyes, probably eating too quickly, and his throat was choked. Cheng Hanliang nervously wanted to comfort him, but he pushed him away the moment he stretched out his hand.

It didn't take much effort, but he took a few steps back. Then he watched the other party cover his chest, and tried to pour down the soup, pressing down all the discomfort bluntly.

Finally, the bottom of the bowl is eaten clean.

It was also at this moment that Cheng Hanliang suddenly realized that the child had grown up a lot.

Li Langyu had been raised in bed for a week, and Cheng Lan came to see him every day. Seeing that he was sick, he was very distressed, and talking to him was not as bright as before. Li Langyu lowered his eyes, and occasionally added a few random words, like a perfunctory. After the truth was revealed, he didn't have the intention to act like he did before. Even if Cheng Lan didn't know, he felt that he was all from the Cheng family. The harmony and affection of Qin and Se were all fake, deceiving others and deceiving himself. Cheng Lan said and saw that he was silent, but he stopped talking, and the strange feeling of strangeness came back. She thought, maybe when the disease is cured, maybe people can be like before. She could only talk like that to comfort herself.

In winter, the temperature drops very quickly, and it is cold all night, but for two or three days, the clothes you wear have to be changed. The Cheng family set up the steam stove, and Li Langyu was bored in the room. Cheng Hanliang visited him a few times, and asked someone to send him warmers for his hands and feet. He changed his clothes and bedding, and he also ate the same food. Call someone to bring it up. Li Langyu thought about it for a few days, it was ridiculous that tit-for-tat was useless, it would be better to rest and start over.

Today, the weather turned better and the sun was shining. Li Langyu walked out of the room, his body was almost adjusted, but his energy was not good. The room was warm and drowsy, so he sat in the hall for a while, doing nothing, and then started to practice calligraphy. One for peace of mind, the other for clarity of mind.

At noon, Cheng Lan and the girl in her room came back from outside and bought a few baskets of melons and fruits. Seeing Li Langyu's improvement, her face was full of joy, and she washed some apples and cut them into pieces to eat with him.

This was a good intention, but the blame was on the unsightly silver bracelet.

Cheng Lan handed him the diced apple, just revealing a section of fair-skinned wrist, the silver bracelet rolled down the bone of the hand, and the chain-link flower carved leaves were wrapped in a circle, which was dazzlingly beautiful.

At first glance, Li Langyu's eyelids jumped, not in shock but in anger.

It belonged to his Fu family, and it was one of his mother Shen Zhilan's dowry.

Li Langyu immediately grabbed Cheng Lan's wrist, her eyes fierce and ruthless, "Who asked you to wear this!"

Cheng Lan was taken aback by his roar, and after a while, she asked, "What's wrong with this bracelet? Dad gave it to me."

If you don't listen, it's okay, but when you hear it, you will be angry.

"You, you... why do you wear it!" He was extremely angry and aggrieved, destroying people's homes, stealing people's wealth, and what else is more shameless.

The cleaning girl was so shocked by his sudden anger that she didn't dare to approach. Seeing that Cheng Lan was at a loss, she strengthened her courage: "Master, how can you bully the young lady! The bracelet belongs to the young lady, and always has been!"

Li Langyu glared at him fiercely and told her to shut up.

Cheng Lan fell into her sanity and persuaded: "If you don't like me wearing it, then I won't wear it." After that, she wanted to take off the bracelet.

But Li Langyu grabbed her desperately, so tight that it hurt, and refused to give in a single point. The wet brush on the table, which was thrown aside, dipped a fist-sized ink dot, and a page of running script was like Fu Dongliu. , What a quiet mind, all fucking farts!

Their Cheng family, from top to bottom, from the inside out, doesn't have a good thing!

Cheng Lan was twisted so hard by him that he broke free a few times without success. "Lang Yu, what's wrong with you, let go."

Li Langyu's eyes were red, and he didn't know whether it was anger that gave rise to sadness or anger that gave rise to grief. You don't deserve...you don't deserve it!"

"If she doesn't deserve it, then no one deserves it either."

Cheng Hanliang's voice sounded from behind.

"If she doesn't deserve it, then no one deserves it either."

Cheng Hanliang's voice sounded from behind.

Li Langyu turned her head stiffly, and slowly let go, still using those eyes, those eyes that had poured cold rain and ignited fire, staring at the man who approached.

Cheng Hanliang asked him, what are you doing, does your body just start yelling

Cheng Lan hurriedly explained that, in order to smooth things out, if things really went bad, according to Cheng Hanliang's temperament, it would definitely be Li Langyu who would suffer.

Li Langyu turned his face sideways and remained silent. He lowered his eyelids and just stared at the pages on the table, which were getting worse and worse.

Seeing this, Cheng Hanliang waved his hand and told Cheng Lan to go back to the room first, and he had something to say to him.

He took the person into the room, locked the door, stretched out his hand and took off the trench coat he was wearing when he went out. Before he could sit down, the other party said, "That's my stuff!"

"I know." Cheng Hanliang chuckled and walked to Li Langyu's side, "I heard you lose your temper before entering the door. It seems that you have recovered. Does it hurt?" He hung his coat on the yellow wood hanger, turned slightly sideways, and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt.

Seeing him so calm, Li Langyu was even more indignant, calling him a thief with no conscience and a shameless traitor.

Cheng Hanliang was noncommittal, and when the students scolded people, they were just a piece of rotten persimmon. Might as well beat him hard.

"You want to take revenge, but what you do is really ridiculous and childish." The sheep entered the tiger's mouth, and only relying on courage, how could it not fail, but fortunately it fell into his hands, "Don't say that killing me is not easy, even if it is, then it is still With Feng Shangyuan, I am not the only thief."

"I have my own plans!"

"Okay, just follow your plan. In the end, the revenge will be avenged, but your father still bears the name of a traitor, so you don't care?"

Of course he cares. Obviously this group of people harmed his family, but they questioned him in turn.

Cheng Hanliang turned to look at him, his originally good-looking brows shrank very quickly, as if they were unbalanced. He stretched out his hand and put it on the other's head, still smiling, and said pleasantly, "I sweat so much out of anger, who would you like to show it to?"

Li Langyu let go of his hand and said sternly, "You don't need to be hypocritical, you don't need to worry about it!"

"Don't worry about me?" He narrowed his eyes, and for a moment he lowered his head, he pushed Li Langyu onto the bed and pressed him, "But there is one thing that I have to take care of today."

Li Langyu was held by his shoulders, stuck in the center, unable to move half a minute. Cheng Hanliang approached his ear, the heat licked the pinna like a hissing snake letter, and his voice was extremely low: "If you want revenge, you can do whatever you want with me, life and death depend on fate, success or failure in heaven, my life is master Those who are rescued should be returned to your Fu family, and it would be understandable if they died in your hands."

"However, you are not allowed to involve this resentment on Lan Lan."

"You're a man, she's a woman. Besides, she's your wife in name, and you're from the same family in love. What's your anger with her?"

"I'll keep you here. In the eyes of outsiders, you are still my son-in-law of the Cheng family, so you treat her well for me, and don't allow something like this to happen again."

After a few words and a few words, Li Langyu was unwilling, but she had nothing to say, she just stubbornly turned her head to one side and pretended to be deaf. Cheng Hanliang broke his face, and half coaxed: "Be obedient, little bastard!"

He stared blankly, the courage and pride of the past were gone, all grievances and injustices. Cheng Hanliang stared at that face, his expression moved slightly, he let go of him after a few seconds of stalemate, came to the desk and took out a small box, and glanced at him hesitantly. As a friend, he acts directly and rigidly, and he does not have the nervous attitude of such a young man.

"I think you're twenty-four this year. I should give you a coming-of-age gift when you're eighteen, but unfortunately I didn't get the chance. This is for you." Inside the box is a piece of white jade with a tether, with zodiac signs and orchid on the front, and engraved on the back. There is a birthday - "the twelfth of the people, the third day of the fifth lunar month", Cheng Hanliang put it into Li Langyu's hands, and solemnly, as if he handed over the bright moon in the sky.

Li Langyu glanced at him, looked at him again, and hurriedly threw the jade pendant out of the window.

"No need." He said simply.

Cheng Hanliang was stunned, his face immediately stiffened, his eyes glared at him, his lips were tightly closed to form the blade of a knife.

"Okay, okay." He sneered word by word, dropped Li Langyu, turned around and slammed out the door.

The whole room was shaking.

Chapter twenty three

The bracelet was quickly over. When Li Langyu met Cheng Lan, she didn't wear it again, but the two kept a distance from each other in tacit understanding. Filled up again, can't say what it feels like. Li Langyu looked at her several times, and saw her withered eyes looking at the rain. She obviously wanted to talk to herself, but she kept it secret. He also struggled in his heart, and in the end, he still couldn't get over that hurdle.
