When I got home, my mother and Yingying had already gone to sleep. I walked lightly into my room, immediately took off my bloodstained clothes, found a black plastic bag, and hid it in my large closet.

Touching the piece of gauze on my head, I smiled wryly and thought to myself: the bruises and scars elsewhere on my body are fine, as long as I am wearing clothes, I can't see them. But how to hide this bandage on the head tomorrow morning? It can't be that winter hasn't even arrived, so I'll just bring a hat, right?

I knew that once my mom saw me like this, it would be useless to quibble. When I was a teenager, I came home with injuries like this countless times, and when she saw it, she knew that I was fighting people outside again.

Although tonight's fight is fundamentally different from my previous fights, and it is also self-preservation, it is inevitable. Regardless, I broke the promise I made to my family. In order not to let my mother worry about me again, and in order to maintain the image that I have changed with great difficulty, of course I can't let my mother see what I look like now.

Alas! Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow morning. It's a big deal that I got up early and hurried out before my mom got up. In the past two days, I tried every means to avoid meeting my mother. As soon as the wound heals, the matter is over.

Tiptoeing to the bathroom, I wiped the blood from my face and neck with a towel, and wiped the bruises on my left arm with the medicine and wine prepared by the hospital. After a bit of hastily dealing with it, I went back to my room and lay down.

It was late, but I didn't feel sleepy. I lit a cigarette and lay on the bed thinking nonsense. I didn't think about anything else, just thinking about what Tang Xiaoru said to me tonight, and the hug I had with her.

Is Tang Xiaoru actually a weak woman? When she is sad and aggrieved, she will throw herself into the arms of someone she trusts for comfort and understanding?

I naturally don't believe that she and Fei Jiahui will have any personal affairs between men and women, but I think Fei Jiahui is also a person she trusts very much, right? Although I was a little surprised to hear Felena say that she saw the two of them hugging each other. But I was relieved to think that she had thrown herself into my arms and cried like this tonight.

Perhaps, this is a manifestation of Tang Xiaoru's inner weakness, right? She no longer needs to pretend to be strong in front of people she trusts, maintaining her mask of a strong woman. The grievances have been suppressed for a long time, and it is normal that they can't help but vent out.

It's just that this Tang Xiaoru really should reflect on it. It doesn't matter if she vents her grievances, but this kind of crying in a man's arms, doesn't she know that it will cause misunderstanding? Don't talk about others and Fei Jiahui, just say that I am tonight, and I almost mistakenly think that she likes herself.

Alas, you may be calm in your heart, but in this world, how many men will be like water when they are holding you, and they will not think nonsense?

Since I had to wake up early tomorrow, I forced myself to fall asleep after smoking a cigarette. After setting the alarm on my phone, I turned off the lights and closed my eyes. Not long after, I fell asleep in a daze.

My mom usually gets up at six o'clock in the morning, and when the elderly are older, they have less time to sleep. In order to get out of the house before she gets up, my phone is set to 5:30 in the morning. So, when I was woken up by the alarm of my mobile phone, I didn't lie in bed for a second, but immediately got up to find clothes to wear, and then immediately rushed to the bathroom to wash my face casually.

Maybe my voice was heard by my mother, so I heard her strange words in the room: "Xiao Yong, why did you get up so early?" What time did you come back last night? ”

As soon as I heard that my mother had woken up, I was so frightened that I hurriedly went to put on my shoes, and said as I put them on, "Mom, I have something to do in the morning, so I have to go out early." When I was done, I went straight to work and didn't come back for breakfast. ”

"You go out before dawn? What's so urgent? ”

"Hmm...... It's a business order, and it's ordered by our company leaders. ”

"Business? Why do you need to go out early in the morning? Your company leaders are really ......."

I heard my mom seem to be out of bed, and it looks like she's about to open the door and come out. In a hurry, I didn't even care about the heels of my shoes and didn't step into them, so I hurriedly ran to open the door, pretending to be in a hurry and said, "Mom, there's no time, I'm leaving!" ”

"Hey, what are you anxious about? When I come back, I haven't even asked you about Miss Fei. ”

Where did I dare to stay a little longer, I closed the door with my backhand, and hurried to the street. It wasn't until I couldn't see my door at the corner that I breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down.

At this moment, the sky is just bright. I smiled wryly and touched the gauze on my head, thinking to myself that this morning was over. But what about at night? What about tomorrow morning? You can't always use the excuse of having business to go out early and return late for several days in a row, right?

I found a breakfast shop that opened early, and I asked for a bowl of soy milk and a few steamed buns, and while I sat down to eat, I thought about how I could hide my fight injuries in the next few days without my mother being suspicious. I happened to hear a middle-aged man who came to buy steamed buns chatting with the shopkeeper, saying that he would take the train for a few days on a business trip after eating in a while. When I heard the word "business trip", I suddenly had an idea. If I really can't help it, then I'll lie to my mom on a business trip, right? Since it's a business trip, naturally you don't have to go home. Find a random place to deal with it for a night or two, and wait until the wound on the head is almost healed before it's too late to go back.

Thinking of this, I am proud and ashamed. Alas, although this is also a last resort, it is a bit embarrassing to lie to my mother.

I left too early and I had nowhere to go. When I was bored, I planned to walk to work. By the time I walked into the company building, it was just 7:20 a.m. There is still a full hour and a half left before our normal work time.

At this time, of course, the company was empty. I opened the door to my office, and with nothing to do, I rolled up my sleeves and cleaned up. It's just that my left arm still has a dull ache and is not very flexible. With a little force, it will sting. It seems that the injury is really not light, not ten days and a half months, it is estimated that it will not get better.

Just as I was cleaning the office and making it spotless, I heard the sound of high heels outside the door, and it seemed that someone had come to work early like me. I was a little strange and walked to the door to see who it was. As soon as he poked his head out, he saw Tang Xiaoru, the company's boss, hurrying over with a bag. When she suddenly saw me come out, she was shocked. He put his hand on his chest and sighed, then glared at me and said, "You...... What are you doing? Scared the hell out of me! ”
