The Tang Family’s Seven Os - Chapter 144

“Listen to my explanation……” Xia Cheng Lang opened his mouth, but for a moment he did not know how to explain, because he had indeed lied to Tang Liu Yuan, he had bad intentions from the very beginning, which is irrefutable.

As if he had lost his voice, he was speechless under Tang Liu Yuan’s silent gaze.

Tang Liu Yuan suppressed the sneer on his face, and his face fell silent. He gave Xia Cheng Lang a deep look, his voice tired, “Xia Cheng Lang, congratulations, I was indeed deceived by you, your revenge is successful.”

“Liu Yuan, I’m sorry……” Xia Cheng Lang’s eyes suddenly reddened, “I did lie to you at first, but I’m not now, I didn’t want to get back at you, I just……”

Tang Liu Yuan lowered his eyes and interrupted in a very soft voice: “Xia Cheng Lang, don’t appear in front of me again.” And don’t continue lying to me.

After he finished speaking, he didn’t give Xia Cheng Lang a chance to speak again, and opened the door directly, shutting Xia Cheng Lang out of the door. If he listened to Xia Cheng Lang any more, he might start to waver again, and believe Xia Cheng Lang.

Xia Cheng Lang reached out to knock on the door, but his mobile phone rang at that moment, and it was Chen She calling. He intuited that something was wrong with Chen She, so he picked up the phone and put it to his ear.

“Xia Ge, what to do? Liu Yuan seems to know.”

“What’s going on?” Xia Cheng Lang asked in a deep voice, his voice hoarse enough to startle Chen She.

Chen She knew things were going to be bad, so he hurriedly told the story of how he had just been discovered by Tang Liu Yuan, and then advised in an anxious voice: “Xia Ge, you should quickly coax Liu Yuan, explain clearly and apologise properly, he will forgive you.”

He had long seen that Xia Cheng Lang was not playing with Tang Liu Yuan at all. In all these years, he had never seen Xia Cheng Lang so devoted to anyone except Tang Liu Yuan, and he had never seen Xia Cheng Lang like someone so much.

The reason why he asked Chen She to buy the pheromone camouflage for him today was that he wanted to take it to Tang Liu Yuan and confess everything to him personally, but he never thought that before he could tell Tang Liu Yuan the truth, Tang Liu Yuan would already know the truth.

He had always wanted to find a good time to tell Tang Liu Yuan the truth, but perhaps it was because there was always a price to pay for doing something wrong, so the heavens simply did not give him the chance to confess his mistake. He should not have deliberately pretended to be an Omega to get close to Tang Liu Yuan for fun from the beginning, nor should he have continued to deceive Tang Liu Yuan with one lie after another.

It’s just that at that time he didn’t anticipate that he would really like Tang Liu Yuan, or……he had already liked Tang Liu Yuan from the first moment he saw him, otherwise as a person who was so afraid of troublesome things, how could he have gone through the trouble of getting close to Tang Liu Yuan for fun.

It’s just that he understood too late and used the wrong method, and now it’s too late to make up for it, and he doesn’t know whether Tang Liu Yuan is still willing to give him this chance.

His phone rang and Xia Cheng Lang didn’t answer, his head was dizzy and his mind was only filled with Tang Liu Yuan and the mistakes he had made in the past. He reached up to wipe his face and knocked on the door. It was quiet inside the house, Tang Liu Yuan didn’t make a sound at all, he was suddenly very scared, afraid that Tang Liu Yuan would never want to see him again.

His mobile phone rang, again and again, seeming very harsh in the empty stairway.

Xia Cheng Lang closed his eyes and picked the phone up.

Sheng Cen’s suppressed voice rang out anxiously over the phone, “What’s wrong with you? Not answering the phone for so long, hurry up and come to the hospital, Grandpa……anyway hurry up!”

Xia Cheng Lang’s ears buzzed and his face changed dramatically, he hung up the phone, looked up at the door of Tang Liu Yuan’s house and ran down the stairs quickly.

He had lied to Tang Liu Yuan about many things, but there was one thing he hadn’t lied about, his grandfather’s health was really getting worse and worse.

……

For the entire summer, Tang Liu Yuan spent every day in a muddled state, either sleeping or reading medical books, trying to keep his head empty and too busy to think about anything else.

Tang Qi Yuan looked at him and sighed inaudibly several times without knowing what was happening or how to persuade him.

Tang Qi Yuan carefully tried to ask several times, but was fooled by Tang Liu Yuan’s equivocation. He knew he couldn’t ask anything out, so he had to stop asking and just reminded Tang Liu Yuan to eat on time every day.

Of all his brothers, he had spent the longest time with Tang Liu Yuan and knew him best. He knew that Tang Liu Yuan must have encountered something big this time and that it was related to Xia Cheng Lang.

It was not until the day the results of the college entrance exam were announced that Tang Liu Yuan simply packed himself up and went to school. Although the scores could be checked online, Tang Liu Yuan just wanted to go to school and see for himself.

It is a custom at Huang Han High School that the list of the top 100 students in the entrance exams is published and posted at the school’s main entrance, because the students at Huang Han High School are usually the children of royalty and high officials, most of them will be the future great figures of the empire when they grow up, so the results of the entrance exams will attract a lot of attention, and reporters will often come to do interviews.

In front of today’s results list was filled with reporters as in previous years, and even more people came this year than ever before because of the presence of the second prince, Sheng Cen.

Tang Liu Yuan didn’t want to go over and join in the fun, he just wanted to look around the school today. As for his college entrance exam results, he wasn’t in too much of a hurry to find out the scores because he knew he had done well and should have enough to get into the university he had dreamed of for so long.

He walked alone for a long time around the familiar campus, past the lawn where he and Xia Cheng Lang had first met, and past the basketball court where they had played their basketball game together, before he finally stopped in front of the railing.

The railing was now empty, but he still remembered the way Xia Cheng Lang had sat on it that day, the sun shining on his face, as handsome as ever.

What Xia Cheng Lang had said that day was still ringing in his ears, but he had never imagined that things would be different so soon.

Tang Liu Yuan smiled faintly and had to admit that the most memories he had on this campus were of Xia Cheng Lang.

After that day, he had never seen Xia Cheng Lang again, and perhaps he would never see him again in this life.

Tang Liu Yuan lowered his eyes, hiding the emotions raging inside, and stood in place for a while before turning around to leave.

When he walked back to the entrance of the school, there were fewer people gathered in front of the results list, but there were still quite a few people gathered around. He found it a bit strange that everyone’s expressions were surprised after seeing the results list, as if there was something incredible on that list.

He took two steps forward and stopped looking at the crowd, and after thinking about it decided that it was better not to go ahead and squeeze in, and just go home and check his results online.

He was just about to lift his feet to leave when he heard two journalists whispering next to him.

“My goodness, is that really the Sheng Second Prince and the son of the Xia family on the list? Didn’t they say that they both don’t study well, how come their scores are so high?”

“Ai……who can tell with that bit of twists and turns in the royal family.”

Tang Liu Yuan stopped abruptly, his heart beating violently, he squeezed through the crowd a little and looked up at the list, he started looking from the 100th place, his eyes went up a little and finally saw Xia Cheng Lang’s name in an unexpected place, Xia Cheng Lang’s and his name were right next to each other, the total score was even two points higher than his score.

Tang Liu Yuan froze, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his eyes lingered on Xia Cheng Lang’s name for a long time, there were people constantly leaving and also people crowding in around him, but he was the only one who didn’t move.

Tang Liu Yuan had never cried since he found out that Xia Cheng Lang had deceived him, but now that he saw the name hanging high on the results list, his eyes were suddenly wet with tears, so Xia Cheng Lang could really get into the same school as him.

Xia Cheng Lang had lied to him again and to everyone else, his academic performance was good enough for any school in interstellar, he had never been an uneducated person.

Maybe he had never really known Xia Cheng Lang, Tang Liu Yuan closed his eyes, tears sliding down his cheeks.

When the people around him saw him crying, they thought he had failed to get good grades, so they all gave him a sympathetic look.

Tang Liu Yuan didn’t notice the others’ eyes, his heart ached violently with every beat of his heart, he still remembered the way Xia Cheng Lang had said that day that he wanted to get into the same school as him.

All of it was fake, this year had been like a dream.

Tang Liu Yuan opened his misty eyes and walked away. This time, he didn’t look back at the familiar campus.

After the results of the college entrance exams were announced, Xia Cheng Lang’s results shocked everyone, causing a sensation on campus forums and magazines for days, but he left without a word.

Xia Cheng Lang and Tang Liu Yuan really got into the same school, but in different departments. It was not until the day the university started that Tang learned that Xia Cheng Lang had gone abroad to study, instead of reporting to the university.

Later on, Tang Liu Yuan heard about him on and off from General Tang’s mouth. He heard that shortly after the entrance exams, Grandpa Xia passed away, and without Grandpa Xia as a pillar, Empress Xia feared for Xia Cheng Lang’s safety and did not let him stay in the country for too long. After Grandpa Xia’s funeral, she personally sent him directly to the plane and sent him out of the country in spite of his resistance.

With Grandpa Xia gone, both His Majesty and Madam Zhen Wei were eyeing the Xia family and couldn’t wait to cut down the grass and roots of the Xia family, so Empress Xia simply wouldn’t let Xia Cheng Lang have the opportunity to return back into the country.

On the day school started, Tang Liu Yuan looked at the university he had once aspired to attend and finally realised that Xia Cheng Lang would never be in the same university as him. He stood at the entrance for a long time before lifting his feet and walking in, both he and Xia Cheng Lang had their own lives and responsibilities to bear.

Later, Sheng Cen asked Tang Qi Yuan to bring him something, saying that Xia Cheng Lang had asked Sheng Cen to pass it on to him before he left.

Tang Liu Yuan looked at it for a long time before reaching out and opening the parcel. Inside was an acceptance letter, exactly the same as Tang Liu Yuan’s, except that the person accepted was Xia Cheng Lang.

Tang Liu Yuan unconsciously recalled the words Xia Cheng Lang had said at the time.

“Tang Liu Yuan, if I can get into the same university as you, will you be together with me?”

Xia Cheng Lang really did it, but unfortunately Tang Liu Yuan was not destined to keep his promise.

Tang Liu Yuan reached out and gently rubbed Xia Cheng Lang’s name on the acceptance letter, smiled slightly, reached out and closed the acceptance letter, then took off the bracelet he had been wearing on his wrist and put it in the box together.

He put the box on the top shelf of the cupboard, then opened the medical department’s book and looked down at it carefully.
