Yu He usually does not like this kind of greasy atmosphere is particularly heavy gold cave, but now only here, he can find a little belong to the flesh and blood of the earth heat.

" Shao He ."

" Shao He good."

The waiter respectfully greeted him at the open door of the box, bowing his eyebrows and not even daring to raise his eyes.

Empty night club is a place of intoxication, a city of alcohol and meat. Entertainment / city business norms, but the head of the waiters are all beautiful and smooth will come, the first floor of the dance floor to seek pleasure is often handsome men and women. A large number of these people are willing to be taken out privately, to the level of personal relationships, that is, the normal midnight male and female love, love well, sex well, no one cares.

Therefore, outside the door of the empty night is always luxury cars, late at night, many skin such as the legs of the bosses on the car seat, smiling and snuggled next to the dust.

Yu He came here tonight, in fact, very some malicious revenge in mind, fell into the mud, so he had a self-destructive pleasure.

This state of mind is like a student who has spent all his efforts and savings, but always no success in the gold list, before it is hard work, when the force that supports him upward again and again and three times exhausted, to be again failed, will also give up on themselves.

Yu He has now figured it out. He wanted to hear good lies, and why did he have to suffer that kind of suffering?

In a place like the Empty Night Club, he would sit down and someone would come up close, and all night he could hear the soft words without repeating them. He does not have to deceive himself, he only has to spend money, there are people who want to deceive him and coax him.

They won't run away halfway like Qingcheng Xie, who ran away and thought his allowance was too small.

" Shao He, this is the most clever group of waiters we have here, in charge of your box, if you need anything, just talk to them."

Yu He didn't get up from the sofa, and looked at the two rows of waiters brought from outside by the duty manager with his permission.

These are the head employees of the amusement/entertainment city, with a lot of postures and smiles, standing behind the manager and being introduced by him.

After a round of introduction, the manager went down nicely and showed Yu He the door by hand.

" Shao He , do you want to play any games?"

Despite the guest's scowl, these well-trained waiters smiled sweetly and tested his attitude.

Yu He was silent for a moment and smiled: "Open some bars. Rather embarrassed to let you guys stand around dry like this."

Thick gilded wine list handed up, really fucking kill the place, the wine below 10,000 rare, 100,000 to 200,000 wine but a lot.

Yu He lazily leaned back on the sofa, without blinking, and ticked off all the ones in front of him before his eyes fell on a bottle of special blend called 59 Plum Aroma.

He has accompanied customers here many times and knows what kind of special drink this is. The string of zeros that follows the drink and the three burning heart symbols tell the person who orders it what kind of experience this drink will bring. Yu He used to sign the checkout, almost on every single order can see the customer ordered plum fragrance.

"It smells very high class, but ......" a fox friend once half-drunk half-sober in Yu He's ear laughing recommended, "and very frivolous and cheap. Shao He understand what I mean?"

Yu He hooked 59 Plum Fragrance up and casually handed the drink list to the girl closest to him.

The sisters looked at each other with some joy and excitement in their eyes.

Just into the room when he thought this guest is not so good to deal with it, did not expect to look handsome and good temper, people are also generous, coaxing are not yet coaxed to open the most expensive wine stack champagne tower.

" Does Shao He play poker?"

Yu He smiled and said lightly, "I'm just afraid you can't play me."

The girl pouted: "Then I can't play, Shao He should have mercy and let me."

"That's right ......"

The warm and soft body came close, beside him, by his leg, by his hand, Yu He looked at them calmly and indifferently - yes, with his current position, he just did not have to go begging for a sincere, what kind of pleasing flattery that he could not buy?

The wine opened, the tower stacked, floating light in the sparkling, the girls laughed as a group, and gradually become more and more bold.

" Shao He Why did you come alone? Aren't you with your friends?"

" Shao He can tell us a little bit about what happened at Huzhou University before? It's legendary, I'd love to hear about it ......"

While we were laughing, Yu He's cell phone rang.

He glanced at it and his face moved slightly - it was Qingcheng Xie calling.

"Who is it?"

"Nothing." Yu He, after a brief silence, put his hand on his chin and casually scratched on the screen, rejected the call and said to the girl who was telling a joke in front of him, "You go on."

When the girl saw Yu He seemed to be interested in his jokes, she told them even more enthusiastically.

A few seconds later, Qingcheng Xie's call came back in.

The bell rang more than once, repeatedly prodding, and a bold girl covered her mouth and laughed: " Shao He's girlfriend?"

"Just kidding."

Yu He declined Qingcheng Xie's call for the second time.

This time it took a little longer to die down, but after a minute or so, the bell rang.

Yu He was about to refuse to answer when his fingertips stopped on the screen and paused.

--This time it was not Qingcheng Xie, but Xue Xie who called.

He hesitated for a moment, but picked up.

" Yu He ." Xue Xie called his name from the other end of the phone.

"...... hmm."

" Yu He ...... me, I want to ask you ...... my brother that day in the school, in the end and you went through some ah." Xue Xie's voice with some crying, which more or less let Yu He face decorated in front of the people of the false smile convergence.

"Why would his previous video be suddenly put on the murder video? I was afraid to look at it some days ago ...... today online carefully searched, found many people are cursing, you know ...... there are people published to our home address, but also to our home door threw paint ... ...I'm now ...... I'm now really upset ...... I also dare not call my brother, even if you call him, he will not say anything, he will also be sure to blame me for why I do not listen to go search these things. I ......"

The girl spoke to the back, could not help but cry.

All that was left on the phone was the sound of her sobbing.

The woman at the sales floor didn't know what was going on and was still smiling and pouring him a drink.

Yu He lifted his hand and gently and morbidly stroked the woman's long hair, but the luster under his eyes sank as he listened to Xue Xie's cries. Her devastation and despair dipped straight into his heart through the microphone.

"I don't even know what to do. ......"

Yu He had a moment to think of Dongheng Wei, Xue Xie secretly in love with Dongheng Wei, but something happened, she still chose to find himself. He felt a little comfort in his heart, but then realized -

Dongheng Wei seems to be because of the death of an elderly family member, recently took leave to go to his father's side of the army. His father's side is a military heavy area, and even the signal is not quite there. Besides ...... crush only, Yu He thought, maybe Dongheng Wei even Xue Xie is which teacher do not know, Xue Xie certainly can not find him.

" Yu He ......" Xue Xie sobbed, sounding like a wounded kitten, "What should I do ah ...... I want to do something for my brother , so I, I opened the video to explain, but ...... woo woo woo woo ......"

"But when I try to talk to them properly, almost no one is willing to listen to me calmly and completely to tell me the story ...... They always start cursing halfway through, or don't listen at all ...... and call me a liar and say I'm not his sister, the is ...... is ......"

She sucked in a breath, did not put is what to say, choked for a while, before helplessly said: "They think I want to use the murder case to hype themselves, reported my video ...... and people say my parents are behind the murder ...... Yu He you know, they have been dead for many years, I want the dead to be important, can not even the dead are involved ...... but they ...... they are ...... "

"Instead they asked me to show my mom and dad's cremation certificate ......!"

When Xue Xie said this, she couldn't go on anymore and lost her voice in tears.

Yu He's knuckles are slightly white.

He was already too used to being nice to Xue Xie, and when he heard her crying like that, he reflexively wanted to say something to comfort her, or even solve her problem, but the words were in his throat, and he immediately remembered the messages he had seen between Qingcheng Xie and her.

That belongs to the human temperature, and slowly, from his long sick and decaying heart receded tide.

He was quiet-

A voice sighed and advised him that Xue Xie was not as good to him as he thought, but she did not know anything after all, and she was at least the kindest and most gentle one to him. It is also enough.

But there was another voice that was stabbing him and hurting him, saying that he didn't have to have any more mercy or concern and to stop being so stupid.

"Can I ask you something, Xue Xie." Yu He concluded.

"Well ...... you ...... you said ......" Xue Xie huffed.

Yu He sat in the extravagant and golden box and asked the girl who was currently sitting in the shabby cabin: "You saw the video that hacker sent to the whole Huzhou University mobile devices that day."

"See ......"

"Your brother is a psychiatry-related doctor, and there is no excuse for him to say something like that and be attacked for one thing. The internet is supposed to be a world where emotions are higher than reality, and without the constraints of the physical body, the human spirit is something with more punching power. I'm not surprised that he was scolded."

"...... but he just said so ah ...... he has been ...... doing his job very seriously and responsibly all these years, he never Not perfunctory, these you all also know ......"

Yu He gently interrupted her, he almost never interrupted Xue Xie, "I know."

"But I also know some other things about your brother. Including the fact that he keeps telling you to stay away from me."

"......"

Xue Xie looked a bit confused, she didn't seem to know why Yu He's attitude had suddenly become like this, and she didn't know how to respond to Yu He's words.

Yu He, however, is very calm, so calm that it is almost demonic.

" Xue Xie , I just want to ask you one thing right now."

"......"

"All these years, in your heart, you listened to your brother admonish you in this way, did you ever, even for a moment, suspect that I was also sick?"

"I-"

Xue Xie was unexpectedly asked such a question by him, and her whole body froze.

Is there one?

Have you ever?

In the past countless days and nights, did she ever have a moment of doubt because of Qingcheng Xie's words?

Did she ever suspect in her heart that Yu He was actually a patient too, which is why Qingcheng Xie stayed at He's house for so long and gave her such advice?

Is she really 100 percent free of suspicion?

"I ......" Xue Xie is not a very good liar, she hesitated, hesitated, dumbly clutching the phone, half a day can not say a word, "but .... . but how do you ...... even if you are ...... that is ...... not right, not right, you are so good, certainly not ......"

Yu He's eyelashes flicked, dropping clouds, and smiled softly.

He said, "Yeah, I'm not."

The woman lit a cigarette and tried to hand it to Yu He. Yu He took it, looked at it, smiled and handed it back to the woman, shaking his head sagely.

He seems to be calm and peaceful, but in reality there is a morbid shadow between his eyes.

"So Yu He, can you--"

"Can't." Yu He said gently, " Xue Xie , I'm sorry. I can't."

He said this, still smiling, but the dull pain of the heart and the earth cracked the sky like a cone in his chest, he played with the woman's hair, the tips of his fingers cold.

"I have something going on tonight and I can't get away."

"......"

"Let someone else keep you company." Yu He's lips opened a bit, "Before the two of us, we probably didn't have that much of a deep friendship, did we?"

The girl on the other end of the phone froze.

It seems that I have never seen Yu He's face like this, never heard his voice so soft and elegant, yet without any emotion.

Or maybe, the feelings there are too deep and heavy.

The young man, who was familiar to her and familiar to Yu He himself, had been rolled to a bloody, unrecognizable state.

Yu He did not wait for Xue Xie to say anything else, hung up the phone, smiling -

He really did not think wrong, with Qingcheng Xie in, it turns out that all his past efforts, is simply futile, with Qingcheng Xie in, he and Xue Xie could not be together in the first place.

No, from Qingcheng Xie's point of view, not only Xue Xie, but perhaps he Yu He should not have an intimate relationship with anyone at all.

" Shao He , what do you want to play next?" Seeing him end the call, the girl clinging to his side, the closest to him, the most delicate one, glared at him.

Her fingertips unruly lightly touch and rub on his leg.

Yu He put the phone down and looked at her askance from the top down, saying, "Take your hands off."

"I don't like people touching me without permission. You sit properly and don't make a fool of yourself here. Otherwise I'm going to have to ask you to leave."

His gloom and doom startled the girl, and the room went silent.

Everyone else has sat up straight, not knowing what to do.

Yu He ignored them, drank by himself, and even opened the bottle of 59 degrees plum.

" Shao He , the wine ......" the leader tried to remind him.

Yu He said, "I know what it is."

He was sober and just opened that wine and didn't drink it. As for drinking or not, when to drink, all these depend on his final mood.

The pressure was low, the girls did not dare to say anything, so they froze for half a day, until their legs and feet in seven or eight-inch high heels were sore, and a clamor suddenly sounded outside.

"Sir, you can't go in here ......"

"Sir - first -"

Suddenly -

The door of the box was unceremoniously pushed open.

Yu He looked askance at the icy vision, standing in a white shirt and slim suit pants Qingcheng Xie.

He never answered Qingcheng Xie's phone, so Qingcheng Xie barged in on his own.

The manager on duty at the door was shocked: "You, you blind thing! Why did you let people come here?"

Qingcheng Xie followed by the patrol field is also as waxy, before answering, heard Yu He leaning on the sofa lazily said, "...... forget it."

There was some stinging sneer in his voice.

"He's very good at it, so it's normal that you can't stop him."

"Since we're all here. Just let him come in and sit down."

Yu He's words were in response to the two managers, but his eyes were unblinkingly fixed on Qingcheng Xie.

Qingcheng Xie because of the rush, breathing a little shortness, is slightly open lips gasping for breath, always meticulously combed forehead hair fell a few strands in front of the eyes, a pair of sharp eyes containing fire, like the vermilion red kou in the pool water.

Yu He gazed into those eyes for a moment and said quite calmly, "Dr. Xie, please come in."

"Ah ...... this ......" followed behind Qingcheng Xie to discourage all the way to the patrol management of the tongue bridge can not be.

The manager is still clear-eyed and quick-witted, Qingcheng Xie how he may not know, these two days the Internet are crazy people, before and Yu He together experienced Huzhou University fright, he thinks these two ancestors must have what is the life of the fault, the next person is better to have as far away as possible, do not be involved in the center of the hurricane.

So he gave a wink to the patrol, the two together quickly evacuated the scene, and closed the door pushed open by Qingcheng Xie.

The two people in the room looked at each other and no one spoke.

But in that moment when their eyes met, they both knew that the person in front of them, like themselves -

Only a few days after the last meeting, however, their mindset at this moment, but has been turned upside down, the highs and lows are very different from each other.
