Orange Orange got into the quilt, only revealing a small head, starry eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.

Lin Qing was also sleepy after washing, pushed away the man's arms, and fell asleep faintly before he could lie down. Mu Li walked to the bed and gently covered the quilt, and tightened the curtains, the night outside the window was thick, and the cold wind gradually stopped.

The dim light of the bedside lamp was dimmed, Mu Li sat on the edge of the bed for a while, listening to the sound of the two of them breathing evenly, and his slightly frowning brow eased for a moment. He got up and turned off the bedside lamp and walked out of the bedroom with the sound of footsteps.

The wall lamp in the corridor was on, and he went downstairs, and when he turned around, he saw the figure in the living room. The sitting posture of the man on the sofa seemed to have not changed since then.

Mu Li walked around to Dai Ze and glanced condescendingly: "It's comfortable." ”

Dai Ze raised his eyes and covered the tiredness under his eyes: "Did she celebrate your birthday?" ”

"Of course." Mu Li sat next to him, and saw that there were a few more bottles of wine and two small wine glasses on the coffee table, he looked sideways, "But it's not too grand, it's not as grand as the dishes on your table, that is, I made a cake by myself, said a few nice words, and took the initiative to accompany me for a day and a night." ”

The last two words fell into the ears of another person, and Mu Li leaned back, feeling physically and mentally refreshed.

Dai Ze leaned close to the coffee table, lifted the bottle of wine and poured two glasses, handed one of them to Mu Li, and when he put it into Mu Li's hand, his fingers paused: "I remember, your birthday doesn't seem to have arrived yet." ”

Mu Li hooked his lips meaningfully and raised his glass: "You know a lot." ”

"You have to know yourself and your opponent," Dai Ze sipped lightly, and the pungency of the liquor slid all the way down to stimulate his stomach, "I know more about you than you think." ”

"Oh?" Mu Li raised his eyebrows, but he didn't have much interest in probing, "It's a pity that you found the wrong opponent." ”

"Maybe." Dai Ze's eyes were like a fog that he couldn't see through, and he thought about this sentence more than once, "But for me, I say, I will still fall in love with her again." ”

Mu Li's eyes narrowed.

At the staircase, the dead corner at the bend, which happened to be invisible from the living room, Lin Qing dragged a pair of cotton slippers and lay on the railing, listening to the conversation between the two men downstairs.

She was asleep at first, but when the man left, she suddenly woke up, her heart jumped, she grabbed a coat and went out. When she heard the man say his birthday just now, she almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and this man could really think of it. As a soldier or a commander, is it really good to casually make up this kind of lie?

Lin Qing held his breath and stared, the two of them didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and it sounded like there was the sound of drinking and clinking glasses, which was obviously not a good sign. She didn't believe that they had such a casual relationship, talking and laughing.

Unless......

At this time, Dai Ze opened his mouth downstairs again: "You say, what would happen if she knew?" ”

Mu Li smiled: "I know if I know, I know about this matter through you, but I don't want to see her uncomfortable again." ”

In other words, if Lin Qing knows, he will be recruited.

Dai Ze's smile gradually cooled, and the fingers of the toast paused: "Since you don't want to hurt now, why did you do it so ruthlessly in the first place." ”

Mu Li smiled: "Do you know that I have amnesia? ”

"Amnesia......" Dai Ze really didn't know that the information he could get was comprehensive, but he still couldn't dig out the secret, and blamed the secrecy measures that year was too good, and then Mu Li regained his memory, he was shocked for a moment, and then his expression was as usual, and he filled the wine glass, "It turns out that this is the excuse you used to hurt her." ”

"Excuses?" Mu Li sneered, wave after wave of alcohol impacted his reason, but his amount of alcohol was very good, these few glasses were not a problem, and then he opened his mouth at the bottom of the pool, but every word was extremely calm, "This is the thing I regret the most in my life, if I could choose again, I would rather not meet her, and I would not let her suffer those injuries in the first place." ”

In other words, if he had a choice, he would protect her very well from the very beginning, even if there were 10,000 Xu Yuan, he couldn't hurt her by half a point.

Next to the stairs, Lin Qing's back was slightly stiff while holding the handrail, and the rapidly flashing picture in front of her seemed to pull her back to the darkest days. She struggled and despaired, and to this day, looking back, the feeling of suffocation still fills her chest.

She breathed deeply, trying to let go of the useless thoughts.

It's all gone, isn't it?

Dai Ze suddenly threw the wine glass on the coffee table, the cup was crooked, and the pungent and mellow smell instantly overflowed the hall, and the heat of the air seemed to be ignited by the spicy. He smiled, with an unknown smile in his eyes: "But you met her and hurt her." ”

How Mu Li answered, Lin Qing didn't hear clearly. She vaguely felt a light shadow swaying above her head, and when she looked up, she saw Ren Jiao still standing at the entrance of the second staircase in her daytime clothes, and her eyes were also slightly surprised.

Ren Jiao reacted very quickly, and smiled in an instant.

"Haven't slept yet?" She said with her mouth, and the appearance in front of her was obviously Lin Qing eavesdropping.

Lin Qing also said with his mouth: "Wake up, you haven't slept either, can't you sleep?" ”

Ren Jiao nodded, but did not speak again, although she couldn't see downstairs, she could judge the general situation to some extent. The footsteps that had originally gone downstairs stopped in front of the steps, she hesitated and then retracted, didn't think about greeting again, turned around and was about to go back.

Lin Qing didn't mean to keep her anymore, she went downstairs just because Dai Ze didn't return for a long time, and she didn't worry, she only appeared at this time, and she must have struggled in her heart. At this time, if Lin Qing said something more, wouldn't it add fuel to the fire.

Lin Qing looked at the back of the person who was about to leave, and suddenly heard the voice downstairs coming up again, this time even the people at the second staircase could hear it.

"I didn't get married to reassure you, I just wanted to tell you that even if I get married, my heart for Lin Qing will not change."

Mu Li's voice couldn't hear the emotion: "I can't see that you are so infatuated." ”

Lin Qing raised his head suddenly, seeing the figure in the high place swaying slightly, weak and helpless, which made people feel distressed. How could she forget that in this relationship, the most innocent and deeply injured person is this woman.

Lin Qing pressed the footsteps and walked up the steps quickly, and supported Ren Jiao from behind: "Are you okay?" ”

Ren Jiao curled the corners of her lips when she turned her head, and her face turned slightly pale under the light of the wall lamp in the corridor: "It's okay, I'll go back to the room first." ”

She let go of Lin Qing's hand without a trace, and the most embarrassing side was cruelly thrown in front of others, that person was precisely the woman she once hated the most.

His heart was dripping blood, but his eyes were smiling.

Lin Qing stood in place, watching the figure disappear at the door of the room, the corridor was silent, as if nothing had never happened. All scars were wiped away by the quiet air.

She didn't want to listen anymore, so she turned back to the room and got into the bed, the place next to her was always cold, and she couldn't sleep for a long time.

In her ears, only the sound of Orange Orange's even breathing made her gradually reassured.

The two men discussed the issue of affection and hurt for most of the night, and Mao did not come to a conclusion. They are just taking the opportunity to vent their anger, after all, for so long, they are the toughest opponents the other party has ever seen.

I don't care about a point, it's just about exporting evil spirits.

After the breath was out, I was really refreshed.

Mu Li raised his head and drained the last glass of liquor, and threw the wine glass aside: "It's not interesting to drink with you, I think you are such a powerful character." ”

Dai Ze's eyes were cold, a little drunk, and it was naturally more unpleasant to look at Mu Li, he pointed at Mu Li and sneered: "Commander Mu is just like this, if it wasn't for tying up Lin Qing with a marriage certificate, I might not have lost to you." ”

"Use your brain," Mu Li clasped his hands and folded his legs, his narrowed eyes seemed to be drunk, and he seemed to be completely awake, "I gave her the opportunity to divorce, and I also pointed out that once the divorce is divorced, I will no longer be entangled, but the decision is in her hands, in the end, she still has no feelings for you." ”

"Does she have feelings for me, you know?"

"She may treat you as family, but this proves that it is impossible to give you love in her heart."

Dai Ze smiled bitterly, the corners of his mouth spread bitterness, no matter how good he was in the amount of alcohol he drank on weekdays, at this time, he had thousands of complicated thoughts in his heart, and he was slightly drunk with the strength of the wine: "Maybe I should be like you, I can only grasp it tighter if I have been hurt." After speaking, he shook his head, and the bottom of the pool was full of mourning, "But I can't do it." ”

Mu Li stared at him, the smell of liquor was all over the room, strong, as if it was about to explode his heart. The lights on the ceiling were incandescent and glaring, and the clock on the walls was muffled.

The night is deeper.

Mu Li looked at the time and raised his eyes: "What happened to Lin Qing back then." ”

Dai Ze's originally closed eyes opened suddenly, and there was a cold chill in his eyes, and he was no longer drunk before. He looked at Mu Li, still weighing whether to tell the whole story, it stands to reason that this matter should not be told from his mouth, and he should not let Mu Li get this advantage.

Mu Li curled the corners of his lips, his deep eyes radiated in an instant, and his pupils suddenly tightened, and he could see what Dai Ze's expression was.

The air was suddenly coated with a thin layer of ice, and the slightest cold entered the lungs.

"Back then." Dai Ze took a deep breath, and his eyes unexpectedly fell on the cake that was still placed in the center on the coffee table, and the tail of the removed birthday candle was stained with a little cream, and it was placed on the clean and dust-free coffee table.

The temperature of the room makes the cream on the surface show signs of melting, and the chocolate is scattered on the outer edge of the cake in the form of crumbs, making a pattern, and the cake can be seen at the incision into several layers, with more than a dozen kinds of fruit sandwiched in between. The cake shop wouldn't be so kind, it must have been Lin Qing's special explanation, he noticed it when he ate, and there was nothing in it that he didn't like.

He suddenly lost the strength to continue to hold on, and exhaled, his voice slightly hoarse: "Back then, she had a difficult birth. ”

Mu Li stiffened.

"At that time, I had just met her and took her to the hospital, where the doctor outside the delivery room told me that the situation was dangerous and that I should be mentally prepared. At that time, I had no feelings for her, but I also knew that I had to protect the adults in this situation, and I would tell you the truth, and I had investigated her identity before that and knew that there was no one else around to take care of her. But at that time, she was still very conscious, and she heard the doctor's words, and then she weakly took my hand and said only one word. ”

Dai Ze's words pierced the man's heart word by word, and when the fog gradually dissipated, it was not relieved, but colder.

No wonder he repeatedly hinted that he didn't want to open his mouth when he asked her, no wonder she was always cautious and cautious with Orange Orange.

He thought it was because she was alone and suffered a lot, but he didn't want to have this layer.

Dai Ze looked at Mu Li, and after a long time, his thin lips opened, and there was a slight tremor in the air.

Then she said, "Please, don't protect me, save my child."
