Red Line Resurrection Chapter 57

◎Don’t scare him.◎
In fact, even Shen Lingjun himself didn’t know whether he really planned to leave completely, or whether he just wanted to hide in a place where no one could find him for the time being.
He has never been a person who thinks about what his life will be like in ten days. No matter when he stayed alone in his hometown or now, he always takes it one step at a time. After all, he is alone and has nothing to worry about.
When he first came back from Liang Ji’an, he seemed to have been anxious and confused for a while, but because Liang Ji’an always supported him, he slowly returned to the mentality of not having to worry about anything. If he could, he would be willing to be a rice bug for the rest of his life.
Shen Lingjun hated changes, hated losses, and hated everything that was unresolved, so he decided to take the initiative to put an end to this rigid, unexplained relationship between them.
During the past ten days, he still went to school as usual. On weekends, he sometimes went to the company with Liang Ji’an and sometimes stayed at home with him. At the same time, he also took his things away from Liang’s house bit by bit like ants moving. When he was really ready to leave, he just sent a message to Liang Ji’an.
[Brother, the school has assigned us a field survey assignment. I’m going to Cangzhou for a few days. I won’t be going home this week.】
This was not a good farewell. Shen Lingjun sat on the bus for five bumpy hours and suddenly realized this when he sold his mobile phone to a recycling shop in Cangzhou. He left so hastily that he didn’t even know where he was going.
I can’t go back to my hometown either.
The sky slowly darkened. Shen Lingjun carried his bag and looked at the lights that were gradually turning on in the distance. At this moment, he finally realized that he was now homeless.

Liang Ji’an realized something was wrong about twelve hours later.
Maybe it was due to Shen Lingjun’s non-resistance and even occasional proactive behavior during this period that he couldn’t help but relax his vigilance, or maybe it was because it had become a habit for him to avoid replying to his messages as soon as he returned to school. When the location of his mobile phone stayed in Cangzhou and did not move for a long time, Liang Ji’an suddenly had a bad feeling in his head.
No one answered the call, and after several calls, there was a prompt tone indicating that the other party was on the call. Liang Ji’an held the phone that was still on the call screen and pushed open the door of Shen Lingjun’s bedroom.
The items in the room were arranged neatly. At first glance, nothing was missing. Liang Ji’an glanced around and strode directly to the bedside table. The photo frame originally placed on it disappeared. Going down, he opened the last layer of the cabinet, and half of the contents were missing.
During this period, he gave Shen Lingjun many things intermittently, including the brooch that he had protected even when he was drunk. It was still wrapped in an exquisite gift box and placed in its place.
Shen Lingjun only took away what belonged to him.
Whatever he brought with him when he came to Liang’s house, he also took with him when he left, as if he was so cruel that he wanted to sever ties with Liang Ji’an.
Liang Jian squatted on the spot and was stunned for a moment.
Shen Lingjun gave up his current stable and superior life, also left behind the studies he had just started, and at the same time, without hesitation, left behind the relatives he cherished so much.
The phone automatically stopped the screen, and Liang Ji’an stood up slowly with his hands on his knees. He left more than one locator on Shen Lingjun, but from the current look, it should have been thrown away.
Speaking of going to Cangzhou was probably just a pretense. He only had six hours of transit time. Shen Lingjun should be using the older mobile phone. He wouldn’t be going home in the short term. In order to avoid him, he should choose a smaller town.
Liang Ji’an made the thirteenth call of the day while walking. His tall figure walked slowly from the unlit room to the brightly lit living room. His voice was so calm that there was no wave at all, as if Shen Lingjun’s departure had not affected him in the slightest.
The person on the other end of the call was also very efficient. “You can check the ticket information and accommodation information. The most recent time was two hours ago. I went from Cangzhou to Qingchi and finally transferred to Mushan. There is no trace further down. It should be a private transportation.”
“Mr. Liang.” The person over there didn’t know if he noticed something, so he asked cautiously: “If we find the specific location, are we going to bring the person back?”
Liang Ji An was sitting on the sofa smoking, and his expression could not be seen clearly in the smoke. After a long time, he smiled softly and said, “No need.”
“Make sure he is safe first and don’t scare him.” He put out the cigarette. “I will go to Mushan first. If there is any news, let me know as soon as possible.”
He Wen watched Liang Ji’an lighting up his second cigarette without any pause. Of course he could feel the strangeness at home during this period, but he couldn’t persuade him. But now looking at Liang Ji’an, he finally couldn’t help but said: “Mr.”
“Are you angry with the young master?” He Wen looked at him uneasily. For the first time, he felt that his words were so confusing. “The young master may be just a little scared. He is still too young after all. Everything needs a process. Maybe he just wants to go out and relax. He will be back in a few days. And didn’t he also say it before he left… He just went to complete school homework…”
Liang Ji’an replied expressionlessly: “I’m not angry.”
He Wen looked at his expression, and all the words of dissuasion were stuck in his throat for a moment. The thing he feared most happened. With Shen Lingjun leaving, Liang Ji’an’s emotional anchor also disappeared. The anger, regret, anger or collapse that normal people should have at this moment did not exist in him, let alone allowing him to rationally reflect on his mistakes.
If Liang Ji’an still had any empathy, he should have realized that it was his excessive coercion that led to Shen Lingjun’s forced departure. After all, no one can easily overcome the psychological barrier of ethics and stay with his half-brother without hesitation.
Liang Ji’an put out the cigarette. The tobacco did not bring him any comfort. Instead, it only made him feel bored. He looked at He Wen and said, “Is it weird to like him?”
“Uncle He, you have been working for the Liang family for more than 20 years.” Liang Ji’an said: “You never do things beyond your own identity, but now you will speak for him because you are worried about him.”
“You don’t even get along with him day and night, but you can’t help but like him and feel sorry for him. It’s hard for me to avoid it.”
He Wen said nothing more. He had no idea what Liang Ji’an was thinking or what he would do after finding Shen Lingjun. He could only stand quietly and watch him leave. If there must be any similarities between these two people, they might only be stubborn.
But Shen Lingjun was facing a madman.
