Ever since Lin Zhou came back from his business trip, Tan Zihe had kept a certain distance from him and wouldn't let him touch him.
In the morning, after Lin Zhou had breakfast, he returned to the bedroom and saw Tan Zihe sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. Lin Zhou could not remember how many times he had seen him in such a daze in the past few days.
"I'm going to the company, will you come with me?"
Lin Zhou walked over and asked softly, reaching out to touch his face. Just when he touched his face, Tan Zihe quickly stood up and avoided it.
"I'm not going."
Tan Zihe avoided looking at him, not daring to look at him.
Lin Zhou's hand stopped in mid-air for a while before he sighed and slowly let it go.
"Then...you stay at home obediently, I'm leaving."
After Lin Zhou finished speaking, he turned around, took the key, and left.
Tan Zihe stood there with his head lowered, motionless. As the sound of Lin Zhou closing the door came, he bit his lip and slowly raised his head, tears streaming down his face.
Along the way, Lin Zhou was filled with various worries. He didn't understand what happened to Tan Zihe.
As soon as he arrived at the company, he ordered Yan Shaoxuan to find Sun Yi.
"What's wrong? Summon me as soon as you come."
Sun Yi pushed open the door of his office, sat down on the sofa and looked at Lin Zhou, who had a dark face.
"If you're not in a good mood, let's go have a drink."
After Lin Zhou finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.
"It's early in the morning. What time is it? What aroused you?"
Sun Yi reached out and grabbed him.
"If you don't want to go, I'll go myself."
Lin Zhou turned around and said coldly
"Then...wait a moment and I'll talk to Mo Cong."
Sun Yi was stunned by his tone, and it took him a long time to speak.
"Um."
Lin Zhou hummed and motioned for him to hurry up.
… … … … … … …
"What's going on? Damn it, stop drinking."
The two of them came to a bar they used to frequent. Lin Zhou started drinking as soon as he sat down. Sun Yi stopped him several times before stopping him.
"Yi, what happened to Tan Zihe during the few days I was away on business?"
Lin Zhou looked at him and asked.
"Him? It's nothing. He's been complaining about you all day long, so there's nothing wrong with him. What's wrong with him?"
Sun Yi thought for a long time before saying.
"The morning I came back, he cried and told me he was sorry."
Lin Zhou said and picked up the wine again and started drinking.
"Didn't you ask him? Speak politely and stop drinking!"
Sun Yi snatched it from him again.
"I asked, but he didn't tell me."
Lin Zhou drank a little too hard and his face started to turn red.
"By the way! The night before he came back, it seemed that he came back very late. Mo Cong and I both fell asleep, and I vaguely heard the sound of the door closing."
Sun Yi suddenly remembered.
"you sure?"
Lin Zhou immediately grabbed Sun Yi's arm.
"I'm not sure. I didn't go to the company that day and was always in the bedroom. I know he went out around two o'clock in the afternoon."
Lin Zhou was stunned. It was after calling him at two o'clock.
"If it doesn't work, you should ask him."
Sun Yi frowned more and more as he watched Lin Zhou.
Lin Zhou drank the wine in one gulp and dragged Sun Yi away.
"Hey! Hey! What are you doing!"
"Go home, I've been drinking, you drive."
Lin Zhou threw the key to him. He got into the passenger seat.
Seeing him like this, Sun Yi didn't dare to neglect. He opened the door, got in the car, started it, and drove out, all at once.
The car stopped steadily downstairs, and Lin Zhou reached out to open the door.
"I'll just..."
Before Sun Yi could finish his words, he was interrupted by the sound of Lin Zhou closing the car door.
Tan Zihe was staring out the window in a daze when he heard the door open.
"Why... why are you back?"
After Tan Zihe saw the person who opened the door clearly, he started to hide again.
Lin Zhou crossed over in two or three steps. Tan Zihe still wanted to hide, but Lin Zhou directly forced him into a corner.
"What happened that day? And why did you say sorry to me?"
Lin Zhou pressed his hands against the wall and looked directly at Tan Zihe.
"you've been drinking."
Tan Zihe tried to escape, but found that it was all in vain.
"answer my question."
Lin Zhou pressed closer and closer, almost forcing Tan Zihe into the wall.
Tan Zihe didn't say anything, just lowered his head.
"Tell me what's going on."
Lin Zhou reached out and hugged him in his arms, but Tan Zihe struggled to break free.
"Tan Zihe!"
Lin Zhou almost roared, and Tan Zihe was stunned for a moment, stopped moving, and slowly started sobbing again.
"Don't cry. No matter what happens, I will be by your side."
Lin Zhou touched his head to comfort him.
"I do not deserve… "
Tan Zihe murmured, his tears already soaking Lin Zhou's clothes.
"What happened?"
Lin Zhou let go of him and held his face to make him look at him.
"After you made the call that day... I went out and wanted to go to the supermarket to buy something. On the way back, I was knocked unconscious by someone I didn't know... and then..."
Tan Zihe burst into tears again as he spoke.
"Then what."
Lin Zhou frowned and reached out to wipe his tears.
"When I woke up, all my clothes were taken off, and...there was still that thing on me..."
Tan Zihe couldn't stop crying as he spoke.
"Okay, don't cry anymore."
Lin Zhou felt distressed instantly and quickly hugged him, comforting him softly.
"Zhou, I'm dirty."
Tan Zihe sobbed and wanted to push him away.
"Who said that? You didn't."
Lin Zhou hugged him tightly and wouldn't let go.
"I'm dirty, I'm dirty..."
Tan Zihe was still muttering, and Lin Zhou directly picked him up and entered the bedroom.
"Put me down!"
Tan Zihe fluttered on Lin Zhou's shoulder.
Lin Zhou tilted his shoulders and threw him onto the bed, then leaned over and pressed him down.
"don't want."
Tan Zihe struggled not to let him touch her.
"Didn't you say you were dirty? Then let me help you clean it up!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhou tore off his clothes and firmly fixed his legs to prevent him from moving, forcing him to cooperate with him. Gradually, Tan Zihewei stopped resisting and became entangled with him. .
Tan Zihe was so confused that he didn't know when he fell asleep. The memory before falling asleep still lingered on Lin Zhou's condescension.
When he woke up, it was already dusk, and he had already put on new pajamas. He looked around, but did not see Lin Zhou's figure. His heart sank, and he quickly got out of bed and left the bedroom.
The setting sun slanted on the people outside the balcony, and Lin Zhou stood there smoking.
“zhou…”
Tan Zihe called softly. This was the first time he had never seen him smoking.
"Awake? Come here."
Lin Zhou heard the sound and turned around to see Tan Zihe and waved to him.
Tan Zihe walked over obediently.
Lin Zhou took a puff of the cigarette in his hand and put it out, then put his arms around him.
"Do you know how to smoke?"
Tan Zihe looked at him and asked.
"Yes, but basically I won't smoke."
Lin Zhou replied gently tying his hair.
"Zhou...I..."
Just as Tan Zihe was about to say something, Lin Zhou gently put his index finger on his mouth.
"Don't think about it anymore, just forget about him."
Lin Zhou said with a smile.
"Can…"
Tan Zihe still wanted to say something, but Lin Zhou tilted his head and kissed him. The strong smell of tobacco instantly filled Tan Zihe's entire mouth.
After kissing for a long time, Lin Zhou let him go. Looking at his face that was red due to lack of oxygen, he smiled and held him in his arms again.
After Lin Zhou, the purifier, purified Tan Zihe's mind and body, Tan Zihe temporarily put this matter aside.
