From that day on, Xie He stopped asking to go out with Liang Chengshan. His mood dropped lower with every passing day.
Because he knew he would be useless if he went out, he understood that he could not be with Liang Chengshan like normal people could. He couldn’t leave Liang Chengshan’s side for even a second. And that was a problem because Liang Chengshan was very busy.... He couldn’t specifically come to hold Xie He and comfort him every time he had to take the elevator, could he? Xie He would only be a burden to Liang Chengshan if he went out with him. He would only make things hard on him.
Xie He spiraled down into a pit of self-blame and self-loathing. Not even Liang Chengshan’s comfort helped.
He was not normal. He was useless trash.
Liang Chengshan watched as Xie He’s complexion gradually worsened. Furthermore, the other became even more sensitive, timid and self-abasing. However, he had no way of helping Xie He now. This made Liang Chengshan’s heart feel extremely heavy.
Today, Liang Chengshan held Xie He as they lied on the bed. He planted a kiss on Xie He’s lips and smiled. “Let’s go on vacation. I want to rest a bit.”
Xie He made a ‘mn’ sound and forced a smile.
Liang Chengshan hugged Xie He tightly. He suddenly began to question, was this really what he had wanted?
There was no need for doubt—he loved this person. That was why he resorted to any and all means to have him, to make him love him. But the price he had paid was that Xie He would never be able to be normal again.
He had thought that he could help the other fully recover. He had been confident that everything was in his control. But there were some things that even he could not control. Although he still had this person, he could see that the other was heartbroken and upset. This didn’t make Liang Chengshan happy at all.
Because he wished that Xie He could accompany him while feeling happy and blissful. He didn’t want to watch him gradually transform into a self-loathing, self-declared pitiful wretch.
This wasn’t what he wanted.
But now, everything was gradually spiralling out of his control....
..............................
Liang Chengshan arranged everything and brought Xie He to an island under his name. It just so happened to be vacation season. He led Xie He by the hand as they boarded their plane.
This island wasn’t particularly big, but the scenery was gorgeous. There were beautiful seashells on the soft, golden sand. As far as the eyes could see, there were lines of coconut trees. There were also several villas in a row in the center of the island. The tallest villa only had three levels. When they strolled through the forest, they could see little critters running past.
It was tranquil here, as if they were in an otherworldly retreat from the rest of the world. There were no high rise buildings, no forest of steel that was characteristic of cities. Even the villas had been specifically made of wood. They looked very homey.
Xie He followed after Liang Chengshan meekly. No matter where Liang Chengshan brought him, he gave the other his unconditional trust. He didn’t care where he was. He only cared about whether he was with Liang Chengshan.
Aside from Liang Chengshan’s bodyguards, there was no one else on the island. And the bodyguards were mostly hidden in the background. They rarely appeared before Xie He and Liang Chengshan. It was like they were in their own little world.
There was no one here who would look down on him, sneer at him. There weren’t any horrifying elevators or steel either....
There was only the person he loved here, who would spend time with him. He was gentle and passionate.
Finally, a smile slowly bloomed on Xie He’s face.
That night, Liang Chengshan held Xie He’s hand as they took a stroll along the shore. The slightly salty ocean breeze blew against their faces. Liang Chengshan turned his head slightly to stare at Xie He’s profile.
The young man looked very calm. The contours of his handsome profile were very well-defined. His gorgeous phoenix eyes held a calm within them.... This was the person Liang Chengshan loved with all his heart. He loved him so much that he had stopped at nothing to have him.
For Liang Chengshan, what he wanted was only real when he had it in his hands.
As long as he wanted it...even if he had to make a person who hated him to his bones love him, he would still do it.
But the price he had to pay had exceeded his expectations. He had begun to find it difficult to accept.... If his regret and self-blame for having hurt the person he loved far exceeded any happiness he felt for obtaining this person...then he couldn’t be able to help but begin to wonder whether he had been right and whether it had been worth it.
After all, he loved Yang Ling. He didn’t want to see the other suffer.
&#k3010;Ding, the target Liang Chengshan’s Favourability Value +1. The current Favourability Value is 93.&#k3011;
Liang Chengshan suddenly stopped walking.
Xie He turned to look at him inquisitively. “What’s wrong?”
Liang Chengshan’s eyes looked even more intense against the night sky. He reached out to caress Xie He’s face, his thumb on the other’s velvet lips. The love in his eyes looked even more profound against the backdrop of the sea. He pushed Xie He down onto the sand.
Xie He was startled but immediately realized that Liang Chengshan wanted to make love with him. He felt shy and uneasy doing it outside, but there was no one else around on this island...so it didn’t really matter....
He lay on the sand, the soft, exquisite particles rubbing against his skin. He then felt his lover enter him.
He very happily reached up to wrap his arms around him.
Although he was useless, Liang Chengshan had never abandoned him. He still wanted Xie He. Not only did he forgive Xie He’s mistakes, he never disdained his incapability. Xie He felt so lucky to have him.
Xie He craned his neck up, letting out a low voice filled with love. “I love you.”
Liang Chengshan’s actions paused for a moment, before he landed a kiss on Xie He’s neck. His voice was deep and low. “I know.”
I know that you mean it. But the heart that loves me had been personally destroyed by me and glued back together. Even though I’ve been very careful and meticulous, there were still scars. Aside from loving me, there’s nothing left inside.
To make you love me, I had thoroughly destroyed you.... And I don’t dare to let you know that fact. The dishonest one is me.
?Xie He?I’m bored. My interest in this island vacation can only last two weeks max. Only old people would stay for more than a month. Smile.JPG?
?444?O(?_?)O~?Congratulations to you, the elderly couple, for going into retirement so early.
?Xie He?I kind of miss Little Brother Liang. I can’t let 8000 experience points go to waste. It’s time for him to come make his presence known. He might as well give Uncle Liang a sense of crisis while he’s at it. What has he been doing this last year? ?
?444?Liang Chengshan took everything back and expelled him from the family. Liang Ze directly joined the Rodney Family’s side. Because he’s Liang Chengshan’s son and he’s capable, the Rodney Family values him greatly. They are using each other. But he’s not doing as well as when he had still been Liang Chengshan’s son. Right now, he has to rely on himself for everything.?
?Xie He?Uncle Liang didn’t hide the fact that he let me out. Liang Ze should probably know a bit about my situation. Leak our information to him. The Rodney Family will happily support him in coming over here and stealing me away. Their common goal is to annoy Liang Chengshan after all. Smile.JPG?
?444?(?v?) Mn!?
Xie He and Liang Chengshan stayed in this paradise-like world. Liang Chengshan never mentioned a return date, as if he was prepared to live here. Most of his business was handled via telephone. Every week, someone would specifically come to the island to report to him. However, despite this, Liang Chengshan would occasionally have to leave. But he didn’t take Xie He with him. Xie He would stay on the island alone and Liang Chengshan would rush back as fast as he could at night.
The long period of enduring pressure and others’ criticizing gazes had made Xie He more sensitive and frail. Liang Chengshan hoped that he could recover a bit here.
Xie He was very obedient. Although he really didn’t want Liang Chengshan to leave, he never asked to go with him. He had to learn how to be on his own. He could not follow Liang Chengshan everywhere he went and drag him down.
After all, he was useless.
Tonight, Liang Chengshan had come home a bit later than usual. Xie He could not sleep on his own. He had turned all the lights on and then washed up. He only wore a simple shirt as he sat in their room, waiting for Liang Chengshan to return.
He hoped that Liang Chengshan would come back and hug him and then hold him to sleep. In any case, he had a lot of time to spend waiting for him.
Xie He finished all his preparations and then sat near the window, looking outside. He didn’t move. He listened to any sounds he could hear and waited for his lover to come home....
?Xie He?There’s too many security cameras here. Actually, I’m really sleepy now. It should be fine for me to sleep. Smile.JPG?
?444?You’ve worked hard. O(?_?)O~?
?Xie He?Hehe.?
?444??( °?°|||)?Ah, I just detected that Liang Ze has arrived!?
?Xie He?Very good. I’ve been waiting for him. I really can’t keep living here anymore. ? ?
?444?......?
Xie He sat by the window for a long time but Liang Chengshan still hadn’t come back. He began to feel uneasy and worried. Passing the night alone was torturous for him.
At this moment, Xie He suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. He turned his head around in glee but the happiness disappeared as soon as he took a look. The person standing at the door wasn’t Liang Chengshan, but a handsome young man of mixed heritage. The man had on a black wetsuit and stood there, dripping wet. He looked at Xie He with a complicated gaze mixed with deep love.
Liang Ze had kept an ear on information pertaining to Xie He. Xie He had gone missing for eight months. He had thought the other had died. Liang Chengshan would never let off a traitor that wanted to kill him. This pained Liang Ze for a very long time. Later on, he directly tossed his lot with the Rodney Family. He hated the coldhearted Liang Chengshan.
But his strength wasn’t enough. He could not fight against Liang Chengshan. He could only slowly gather his power.... But then, he suddenly got information on Xie He.
Xie He was actually still alive!
No one knew how delighted he had been at the time. His lover was still alive! But the news quickly made him lose heart. Because the report said that Xie He loved Liang Chengshan. Furthermore, Liang Chengshan protected him very well so Liang Ze didn’t have any way of approaching the other.
Until a week ago, that is. Liang Ze just so happened to receive news that Liang Chengshan had hidden Xie He away on an island. He had then taken advantage of the time in which Liang Chengshan would be away on business to take a risk in coming here. It was all for the sake of taking Xie He away!
He had never given up on saving him.
?Ding, Liang Ze’s Favourability Value +3. The current Favourability Value is 93.?
Xie He stared at Liang Ze blankly. He didn’t know this person. However, everyone on this island was Liang Chengshan’s people. So this person should also be Liang Chengshan’s subordinate, right? But why did he appear so oddly?
In his moment of absentmindedness, Liang Ze walked over with large strides and hugged Xie He tightly! Emotions stirred, he said, “I really missed you.”
Xie He felt uncomfortable being held by an unfamiliar man and smelling the unfamiliar man’s scent. He had never been so intimate with anyone but Liang Chengshan before. This made him feel angry and flustered.
Xie He suddenly pushed Liang Ze away and looked at him warily. “Who are you?”
Liang Ze didn’t expect that Xie He would push him away. He was startled. But when he heard Xie He’s words and saw how Xie He looked like he didn’t know him, his heart sunk. Slowly, he asked, “You don’t recognize me?”
Xie He’s eyebrows furrowed. He knew that he had forgotten many things. Did this person know him? He took a step back and looked at Liang Ze coldly. “I don’t recognize you. Please leave.”
Even though he didn’t remember Liang Ze, he could tell that this visitor didn’t seem to have come with good intentions.
Liang Ze took in Xie He’s estranged and cold attitude. He felt his body go cold. He had rushed over, hot-blooded, to save Xie He, but not only was Xie He not happy in the least, he was even guarded against him. But he knew that this wasn’t Xie He’s fault...Liang Chengshan must have done something! What had he done to make Xie He become like this?!
He saw that Xie He was only wearing a shirt and that there were still love marks littered all over his body. There was also a tracking device on his ankle.
Had Liang Chengshan shut Xie He up here as a pet that he could use to vent his lust at any time? And Xie He actually didn’t want to leave.... Liang Ze felt furious and upset.
He lowered his voice and said, “I came to save you. You can trust me.”
Xie He’s eyes were glued onto him. He suddenly raised his voice. “I don’t know you! I won’t leave with you!”
Liang Ze’s expression changed at once. He knew that Xie He was calling for help. Luckily, they had already disposed of the bodyguards. Otherwise, with Xie He’s loud shout, he would die here! He had never expected that...not only did Xie He not recognize him, he was also acting heartless towards him. Liang Ze grit his teeth and then suddenly advanced, grabbing Xie He’s arm. “No one will come over here. Leave with me!”
Xie He flung Liang Ze’s arm off. He still remembered how to wrestle. Instinctively, he launched a kick at the other. He didn’t hold back, his actions extremely ruthless. However, he had been locked up for a long time. His skill was vastly inferior to what it had been before and he had not fully recovered his physical strength. Liang Ze was prepared. He pressed Xie He onto the ground and watched Xie He struggle, a headache growing. He could only tie Xie He’s arms up with a rope and speak into his ear. “I told you that I would come save you. I don’t know what Liang Chengshan did to you, but I will definitely make sure you get your memories back.”
Xie He struggled with all his might. No one had come even though he had shouted just now. There was no one who could save him here...but he didn’t want to leave Liang Chengshan. He could not leave him!
“Let me go! I don’t need you to save me. Let me go!” Xie He shouted, eyes full of rage.
Xie He was uncooperative, making Liang Ze extremely sad. He raised Xie He’s face and gazed at him with deep affection. His tone was sorrowful. “Do you really not remember me? I’m your lover, ah, how could you forget me?”
Xie He was startled. Soon after, he was even angrier, a scowl painting his face. “No you’re not! My lover is Liang Chengshan! I don’t know you!”
Liang Ze felt like his heart was bleeding. He hadn’t even felt this upset last time, when Xie He refused to go with him. Last time, at least Xie He had only been planning on deceiving Liang Chengshan so he could kill him. This time was completely different....
Xie He had completely forgotten him.... Liang Ze gazed into Xie He’s eyes and knew that the other meant every word he said....
Not only did he not remember Liang Ze, he had fallen in love with Liang Chengshan. How was this possible?!
Liang Ze knew that it wasn’t time to talk right now. He could only take Xie He away for now. He would then have time to help him slowly recover his memories. He was about to take Xie He away, but he put the other down after only taking two steps. The anklet had to be removed first.
Xie kept struggling. He then felt Liang Ze put him down and touch his anklet. His expression grew even more alarmed. “Stop!”
That was Liang Chengshan’s gift to him. He had said that no one would be able to take him away if he had it. This was the mark that said he belonged to Liang Chengshan! It meant no one would be allowed to take him away! Now, someone did come, wanting to steal him away. He even wanted to take away what Liang Chengshan had given him!
Liang Ze saw that Xie He’s resistance was getting more intense. He could only bind his legs as well. He then grabbed the other’s ankle. The anklet was made of hard metal and had an intricate electronic lock. They would not be able to open it in a short amount of time. Liang Ze tried for a bit but could only give up. There was no time. He would first take Xie He away and worry about it later! He forced Xie He into a wet suit and then carried him out.
Xie He was taken out of that house and was held tightly in Liang Ze’s arms. The lights grew increasingly distant. No...he didn’t want to leave! But no matter how much he struggled, he still ended up going further and further away. He felt extreme despair!
“Let me go...I don’t need you to save me. Let me go!” Xie He shouted and pleaded, but Liang Ze remained unmoved.
At this moment, the sound of a helicopter suddenly appeared above them. When Xie He heard this sound, his body began to tremble in excitement. He knew that this meant Liang Chengshan was coming! His lover was back! He would definitely save him!
Liang Ze’s expression changed. He carried Xie He into the water at once.
Xie He was enveloped by the icy seawater and held by an unfamiliar man.... The coldness, darkness and despair once again attacked him.... His mind began to become messy and fear shrouded him.
Was he going to die...was he going to die...?
He did everything he could to fight but it was all useless. He then unconsciously began to shout. His gaze was crazed.
Let go of me! Let go of me!
He wanted to leave this place!
Xie He felt his awareness turn fuzzy. His mind was a mess. He was so afraid he felt like he was suffocating. But because he was tied up, he could not move. It was like he had returned to that hopeless room. There, he had been unable to move and had been in so much pain...so much pain....
Just as he was about to go mad from the pain...he suddenly found himself outside of the water and in a familiar embrace.
The embrace caused the darkness and chill to dissipate. Xie He took in hurried breaths. He then felt a mask being taken off his face. He could clearly see the man before him, see his elegant, gentle face. Tears streamed down his cheeks and his face was deathly pale. “You’re back. I was so scared....”
He didn’t know what had happened just now. He just knew that Liang Chengshan had come back, that he had saved him....
It was always like this. Whenever he was at the peak of his despair, Liang Chengshan would save him.
Liang Chengshan took in Xie He’s pallid face and felt his heart ache. He undid Xie He’s binds at once and held him in his arms. He comforted him. “Everything is okay now.”
Xie He’s body was still shaking.
Liang Chengshan held Xie He comfortingly. He then glared at Liang Ze coldly.
Liang Ze was injured and blood leaked out from his abdomen. He had already been subdued. The other members of the Rodney Family had also been captured.
Liang Chengshan didn’t think that Liang Ze would be able to find this place. He had nearly taken Xie He away! When he thought of the possibility of Liang Ze having succeeded, Liang Chengshan felt great fear at what could have happened. His gaze towards Liang Ze was even more furious and cold!
What made him feel even more uneasy was that he feared Liang Ze’s appearance would make Xie He regain his memories! He absolutely could not allow that!
“Lock him up.” Liang Chengshan instructed in a frigid tone. He then carried Xie He back into the house.
sere: hmmm all the stuff happens in the next part so don’t worry
