Chapter 179 Past
Li Jinhe smiled slightly, looking at Wei Zhe'an with a teasing look, and said softly: "Now you two know that if the old man wants to ban An An in the future, you must help him."
Yuan Ziqian's voice also revealed a hint of smile: "Of course, I've lived for so long, and An An is the first person who dares to curse at the old man. He is simply a rare species. We have to protect him no matter what."
Zhou Xingshuo responded loudly without hesitation: "Don't worry, our An An will definitely become a big star in the future. I will give priority to An An as the spokesperson for all my products!"
After hearing the other party's teasing, Wei Zhe'an's cheeks could not help but slightly heat up, but he still said honestly: "Thank you."
Afterwards, they chatted for a few more words and hung up the phone.
Wei Zhe'an and Li Jinhe sat side by side in silence.
After a long while, Li Jinhe stood up and asked softly, "Are you tired? Is there anything else you want to play?"
Wei Zhe'an glanced at the clock and found that it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.
After more than a month of confinement, he seemed to have no interest in any entertainment activities. Moreover, the matter Yuan Ziqian mentioned just now had been lingering in his mind.
However, he knew that his brother did not want to talk about this matter, and he did not have the heart to touch the pain deep in his heart. So he shook his head absentmindedly, indicating that there was nothing he wanted to do in particular.
Li Jinhe seemed a little overwhelmed in the face of such a situation. He asked with concern: "I'm quite boring. I don't know what to arrange for you. Will you feel bored?"
Wei Zhe'an raised his head, stared at Li Jinhe, and answered sincerely: "No, as long as I stay with you, I will never feel bored." Then, he slowly opened his arms and said coquettishly: "Brother, hug me."
Li Jinhe took two big steps forward without hesitation, picked him up, and then walked steadily to the sofa and sat down.
At this moment, Seventeen was curled up in his warm and comfortable cat bed and sleeping soundly, while Wei Zhe'an was quietly leaning on Li Jinhe's broad and solid shoulders, not saying a word.
Li Jinhe noticed something strange and deliberately asked jokingly, "Why do you seem to be in a bad mood? Are you afraid that the old man will ban you?"
Wei Zhe'an shook his head gently, moved his body slightly, rubbed Li Jinhe's shoulder gently, and replied in a low voice: "No, I'm just imagining your past life." After that, he raised his head and stared into Li Jinhe's eyes.
Seeing this, Li Jinhe sighed helplessly and said calmly: "If there is anything you want to know, just ask me."
Wei Zhe'an stared into the depths of Li Jinhe's eyes and found that there was no trace of disgust in them, only a hint of fatigue. At that moment, Wei Zhe'an suddenly realized that he might be doing something disgusting.
So, he silently leaned his head back on Li Jinhe's chest and said softly, "I don't want to ask any more questions..."
Li Jinhe sensed the change in Wei Zhe'an, and he pulled his arms together tightly, hugging him tightly in his arms, while muttering to himself thoughtfully:
"What Brother Qian just mentioned... He did tie me up once. At that time, I wanted to get rid of the shackles of the Li family. I thought that with my life experience and a few friends around me, I should be able to leave the Li family easily."
Wei Zhe'an listened to his story silently, feeling an unbearable pain in his heart as if it were being cut by a knife.
Li Jinhe sighed deeply. "My thoughts were indeed a bit extreme at the time. I tried several times but couldn't get rid of the old man's control, so I ran to the war zone to serve as a volunteer in anger. As for what happened, there was nothing special. In the end, the old man just sent people to forcibly bring me back from Lebanon."
Hearing this, Wei Zhe'an clenched his fists instantly: "Lebanon? Isn't that..."
Li Jinhe nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then continued to immerse himself in the memories of that past event:
"In fact, I was thinking of self-destruction at that time. I did not go deep into the war-torn areas, but only assisted in the rescue work on the edge. But when I saw those people whose lives were hanging by a thread, I suddenly realized that all the hardships and setbacks I had experienced were nothing."
Wei Zhe'an stared at him anxiously and responded earnestly: "That's not the case. It's just that your situations are completely different. The way they treated you is a huge problem in itself."
Li Jinhe smiled slightly, as if recalling that time, with a hint of emotion in his eyes: "Yes, it was as if I suddenly got enlightened at that time, as if I had just woken up from a dream. I no longer regarded myself as the most wronged person in the world. I realized that I could do much more than that, and my determination to leave the Li family and pursue freedom became stronger and stronger."
"However, since then, I have not been so extreme in confronting the old man. Fortunately, the final result was good."
Wei Zhe'an nodded sympathetically, expressing his agreement: "You were indeed too extreme at that time. After all, that was a war zone! If you were not careful, if something unexpected happened... the consequences would be unimaginable." At this point, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, revealing a look of fear.
Seeing this, Li Jinhe reached out and held Wei Zhe'an's hand, kissed it gently, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm safe and sound now, right? Besides, I didn't support there for too long. They soon took me back by force." His voice was a little low and a little helpless.
Li Jinhe was silent for a moment and continued, "After everything settled down, I sought help from a professional psychologist and received continuous treatment for a period of time. Looking back now, that experience is like a passing cloud, and it is very different from my current life."
As he spoke, he gently stroked Wei Zhe'an's fingers and added softly, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just still have some resistance to the past. But in fact, there is nothing shameful about these things."
Wei Zhe'an stared at the two people's clasped hands, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
He took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice calm, but still said with a hint of dullness: "Actually, I don't really have to get to the bottom of it. After all, I came too late. I just really want to get to know you better and enter your world."
