TRMLCM Chapter 85

Chapter 85: He Was Willing

The sound of arguing in the room was quite loud, but with the influence of the small broadcast, the elderly, who were already a little hard of hearing, didn’t notice anything.

The two old men next door were still reminiscing about their glorious past. The old woman curled her lips, too lazy to listen to the words that had been repeated many times.

She turned her head and peeked curiously at the open door, and couldn’t help but wonder secretly, it’s been a while, and they haven’t finished chatting, what are those two people looking for Shen Chang’an for?

“Hey, why is another car driving in so late at night?”

An old man who was chatting with great enthusiasm looked at the approaching light in the distance, smacked his tongue, and his wrinkled face was filled with confusion.

The person next to him heard the sound and looked over, and sure enough, another car was slowly driving in from the road.

One old man said calmly: “It’s so late, it should be just passing by.”

The other old people didn’t speak, as if in agreement.

They stopped chatting idly and watched the slowly enlarging spot of light together, feeling a little bored.

“This… how does it feel like the police?” An old man widened his eyes and hesitantly opened his mouth.

The others instantly perked up, and the old woman on the side hurriedly took off her reading glasses, wiped them, and put them back on.

“Is it the traffic police? Are they still not off work so late?”

“The end of the year is approaching, and there are more banquets. Are they catching drunk drivers?”

“I told you you’re brainless, and you still don’t admit it. Traffic police? What are the traffic police doing running to this remote wilderness to catch drunk drivers? What year-end bonus are they trying to earn at this time of night? Just retire directly.”

“Then what are the police doing running in so late? Did something happen in some village?”

“I don’t know either, let’s see, see where it’s going.”

……

Alternating blue and red lights flashed incessantly, and the sirens wailed loudly, breaking the heavy silence in the dark rainy night.

The old people by the fire quieted down, and they all craned their necks and watched, trying to join in the fun.

The police car bypassed the obstruction of the eaves, getting closer and closer, and slowly stopped next to the luxury car in the dazed gazes of the old people.

The heavy mourning music couldn’t cover up the long wailing of the sirens at all.

Shen Jia Cheng in the house didn’t hear it at first, but as the sound slowly grew louder, his pupils shrank, and he looked at Shen Chang’an in disbelief.

Shen Chang’an’s eyebrows and eyes were relaxed, and his lips carried a smile.

Shen Jia Cheng was burning with anger, and his eyes were terribly red. He widened his eyes and pointed at Shen Chang’an with trembling fingers, roaring: “You unfilial son, I’m your father!”

“If I had known you would be raised like this, I should have strangled you to death the moment you were born!”

He took two steps forward, but after glancing at Cheng Yi, who was protecting Shen Chang’an and staring at him with dark eyes, a trace of fear appeared in his still sober eyes, and his originally weak steps stopped hesitantly.

He kept looking around the simple house, quickly picked up his bag, turned around, and ran directly towards the wide-open doorway, trying to run away before the police came over.

Shen Chang’an and Cheng Yi chased after him together.

As soon as they got out the door, they saw that the police had already arrived and had automatically subdued him the moment they felt this person was suspicious.

The old people next door watched this scene with wide eyes, unable to say anything.

Shen Jia Cheng’s arms were being held down, and his dark yellow face was flushed red under the lights. He struggled with all his strength, but he still couldn’t break free from those indestructible hands.

The wet down jacket had been rolled on the ground, becoming dirty and messy, and a musty smell permeated the air.

Shen Jia Cheng was in a sorry state, clutching the tattered bag tightly in his hand.

Looking at Shen Chang’an’s calm expression as he slowly walked over, he slowly stopped struggling, closed his old, turbid eyes, and at that moment, his face was ashen, and he fell into despair.

Shen Chang’an glanced at him indifferently a few times, and after enjoying it enough, he shifted his gaze and said softly:

“Hello, I called the police.”

……

By the time they finished taking the statement, it was already past four in the morning.

Shen Chang’an stood quietly at the door, and after watching the two policemen leave, he turned around and saw Cheng Yi standing in the house.

The corners of his lips tightened unconsciously. Shen Chang’an returned to the house.

His thick eyelashes fluttered lightly, and Shen Chang’an lowered his eyes, unable to speak for a moment.

He stood there blankly, staring unblinkingly at the floor.

The house was very quiet.

Suddenly, he heard a soft sigh.

Footsteps sounded, and he was pulled into a warm embrace.

His clear and beautiful eyes lit up instantly, and a mist gathered, filling his eyes, and a large tear rolled down like a pearl.

Cheng Yi was wearing thin clothes, and he immediately noticed when the front of his chest was wet with tears.

The person in his arms looked normal, but when he held him in his arms, his waist was so thin that he could barely circle it with one arm.

Cheng Yi’s heart ached terribly. He reached out and smoothed Shen Chang’an’s back, gently comforting him.

After a moment of silence, the person in his arms slowly opened his mouth, “Why are you here?”

Because of his low mood, his voice was a little hoarse, and it carried a hint of indistinct sobbing.

Cheng Yi lowered his eyes, his fingers running through Shen Chang’an’s soft back of the head, and he ruffled his hair without any politeness. He said gently:

“I miss you. I wanted to see you.”

Shen Chang’an remained silent, just tightened his arms, holding Cheng Yi even tighter.

Rarely, the little fox was suddenly acting spoiled.

A hint of pleasure flashed in Cheng Yi’s eyes.

The two of them had recorded their statements separately. He didn’t know the specifics of the matter, he had just truthfully recounted the series of events he had witnessed.

Did the truth of the matter matter?

He didn’t want to make things difficult for Shen Chang’an.

If he didn’t take the initiative to say it, then he wouldn’t take the initiative to ask.

He thought, as long as his An An hadn’t suffered.

……

“That man is indeed my biological father.”

After a long time, Shen Chang’an, who was nestled in his arms, suddenly blurted out this sentence.

“Mm.”

Cheng Yi listened slowly.

Shen Chang’an didn’t raise his head, and simply and slowly recounted his life story.

Without a trace of subjective judgment, and without too much detail, he stood in the third person’s perspective, calmly revealing his scars.

Cheng Yi moved his fingers, still listening quietly.

After finishing the story, Shen Chang’an, who didn’t wait for a response, finally couldn’t help it. He stopped avoiding it, raised his head, and stared directly into Cheng Yi’s dark eyes.

He had revealed his past, peeling open his bloody heart.

Wasn’t this scene touching? Wasn’t it scary?

He didn’t blink his eyes, staring intently, scrutinizing Cheng Yi’s every move, and opened his mouth in a somewhat doubtful tone, “I sent my own biological father to the police station, don’t you have anything to say?”

Cheng Yi’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and a trace of helplessness flashed between his eyebrows. He curled his lips into a smile and asked curiously, “What do you want me to say? What kind of reaction do you think I should have?”

Shen Chang’an pursed his lips and looked at him without speaking.

Cheng Yi comforted him softly.

“Whether he’s your relative, your enemy, whether you choose to let go of your hatred, or send him to hell, it’s all your own business. So, just decide for yourself.”

“I just want to be your strongest support. When you encounter difficulties, when you encounter trouble, when you need me…”

His voice was low and deep, very gentle and pleasant to listen to, the feeling of slowly explaining was enough to make people let go of the sorrow in their hearts without any precautions.

Suddenly, Shen Chang’an suddenly interrupted him, “Do you love me? How much do you love me? Do you understand me?”

Without waiting for Cheng Yi to answer, he lowered his head and said to himself: “Do you know how we got together?”

Cheng Yi’s words suddenly stopped at the tip of his tongue.

Shen Chang’an spoke slowly.

“I was just on the phone with you for the second time when I became like a pervert, eavesdropping on your breathing after you fell asleep, and I got hard, and I even had a dream the next day.”

Cheng Yi blinked, and his eyebrows twitched for a moment.

“At that time, I hadn’t even seen your face, and I realized my sexuality.”

“Later, I sent you messages every day under the guise of maintaining my status as your top fan. Good morning, good night, three meals a day, I was always trying to get closer to our relationship.”

“I would send you messages before every livestream. When I couldn’t beat others in PK, I didn’t stop my fans from complaining to you. I was just trying to get money from you.”

“Later, the time I went home, I also deliberately didn’t tell you. I just wanted you to contact me, I just wanted you to realize my position in your heart.”

“I just wanted you to come find me.”

Shen Chang’an said it with confidence, but he lowered his head, revealing the skin on the back of his neck, and his thin body trembled slightly, still betraying him.

“…I’m not some noble and indifferent gentleman, I’m just a selfish and unscrupulous villain.”

His lips were bitten a little white, and he closed his eyes, “…I’m not as good as you think.”

His words were light, but they carried an imperceptible sob.

Cheng Yi lowered his eyes and hugged him tightly, watching him dissect his heart little by little, and a trace of heartache flashed in his dark eyes.

His Adam’s apple rolled up and down, and his voice was low and hoarse.

He said, “I know.”

Shen Chang’an, who was in the midst of emotional turmoil, looked dazed for a moment, his ears twitched slightly, and he slowly reacted. His pupils instantly dilated, and he stiffly raised his head, his face full of disbelief.

Somewhat doubting that he had misheard, he paused and murmured, “…What?”

Seeing Shen Chang’an, who was usually always disapproving of everything, turn into a watery-eyed little red rabbit, this kind of contrasting cuteness…

Cheng Yi’s heart was pounding, he was really seduced.

He slowly leaned over, and almost reverently placed a light kiss on the center of Shen Chang’an’s forehead.

After stepping back, the corners of his thin lips curled up slightly.

Suddenly, he said again, “I know.”

‘I know.’

He had always known.

As a second-generation rich kid who had been mixing in the circle of wealthy people since he was a child, even with the Cheng family blocking the way, what kind of conspiracies and tricks hadn’t he seen? How could he really be so naive…

How could he not see through these little tricks to seduce him?

He had just never seen such a clumsy seduction before.

He became interested for a while.

…Then, he couldn’t help but voluntarily bite the tempting bait and get hooked.

Of course,

From beginning to end, he was willing.
