Chapter 402
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan stared blankly at the extinguished lamp before her.
Tonight's pale moonlight could even serve as makeup for her Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face at this moment.
"I think I know why Grandpa wanted to kill you."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan, lying on the rattan chair, tilted his head slightly to look at her back, saying nothing.
"What do you intend to do?"
"Sleep."
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan turned her head to look at Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan.
"Will the Qiongya Chen family be your next target?"
"I'm sleepy."
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan's lower lip was bitten until it bled by her own teeth.
Because they had been allies—no, friends—she understood all the more clearly just how terrifying it was to be an enemy of the boy before her.
"I..."
If the second lighting had been successful, perhaps the pressure in her heart could have eased, at least allowing her to speak more fluently; now, she found that no matter what she said, she had no reason, and even less standing.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan pulled off the quilt covering him and sat up from the rattan chair.
"Goodnight."
The boy walked into the room and closed the screen door.
Passing the wardrobe, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror, his expression grim and his gaze cold.
That familiar feeling was about to return.
It seemed he had to hurry and restore his true body.
He lay on the bed, the folded quilt covering his stomach.
Outside the screen door, Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan stood for a while.
Afterward, she turned and left.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan did not comfort her, or rather, not offering comfort at this moment was the best comfort.
Because whether you act aggressively or magnanimously, you are forcing her to make a choice.
There was no need for that.
Perhaps, beneath Old Master Chen's "yes" answer, there still lay some hidden reason.
He might be unwilling to say, find it difficult to say, or be unable to say.
But just as Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan had told Liu Liu Liu Liu Liu Yumei during the day, he couldn't be bothered to pursue it.
The other party had almost put you to death, and the other party had even admitted it personally.
For you to then take the initiative to explore the hidden reasons behind it would truly be too much of a grievance to yourself.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan could wait for Old Master Chen to explain, but that did not prevent him from starting now to treat Old Master Chen, and even the Qiongya Chen family, as his next opponents.
The boy did not like this kind of hide-and-seek drama; taking a step back, even if you really brought out a reason that could grieve the heavens in the end, the consequences caused during this period are still things you should bear!
Closing his eyes, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan fell asleep again, and by his bedside, the fragrance began to permeate once more.
When Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan returned to Grandpa Grandpa Hu Zi's house, Zhao Yi was not yet asleep; he had his feet propped up on the balcony railing, reading the "Behavioral Guidelines for River-Walking" by the moonlight.
Turning a page and seeing Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan still standing to the side without leaving, Zhao Yi looked up at her and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan: "There's something I want to ask you."
Zhao Yi: "Ask me?"
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan: "It might be because you have experience in this area."
Zhao Yi: "I have experience in this area? Oh, I see, hehe~"
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan: "You know already? Did the little brother tell you?"
Zhao Yi smiled: "Does this need to be told? All men understand."
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan: "Hmm?"
Zhao Yi: "Marrying two wives and being able to maintain harmonious family relations truly requires immense wisdom."
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan gripped the jade flute in her hand, her aura gradually becoming sharp.
Zhao Yi immediately shrank back, waving his hands: "Did I guess wrong?"
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan glanced at the night sky in the distance, released the flute, and her expression turned desolate.
She left the balcony and walked into her room.
Zhao Yi resumed his previous posture of propping his legs up to read.
It seems that bolt of lightning really was related to the Chen family.
The one surnamed Li clearly didn't want to involve you; my brain must be flooded for me to be sharing experience and offering advice at this time.
Soon, Zhao Yi saw Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan appear on the dam, carrying the same style of hiking backpack as the team surnamed Li.
She was leaving.
It couldn't be called leaving without saying goodbye, because she couldn't say goodbye to anyone.
She was going back to Hainan Island, she was going home, she was going to find her grandfather.
Not to ask anything, but to go back and Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face her past again, to Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face that Long Wang Chen in her perception.
Zhao Yi withdrew his gaze, turned another page, and whispered with emotion:
"Without debt, one is light; heh, without a home, one is also light."
When Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan walked out of the village road entrance of Siyuan Village and reached the road, a small black car drove by and stopped; the driver was a female driver with a gentle Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face.
At this hour, in this place, it was hard to hitch a ride; seeing a young girl standing by the road, she intended to give her a lift.
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan thanked her and sat in the car; she tilted her head, looking at the quiet village scenery under the night curtain, and slowly raised her hand, waving gently through the window.
The female driver asked curiously: "Is someone seeing you off?"
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan: "No, I'm alone."
The car started and drove away.
Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Chen Xiyuan slowly turned around, watching the two gradually blurring red and white road markers at the village entrance through the rear window.
The wave she just made was to say goodbye to herself.
She had left that former self of hers in this village.
"Breakfast is ready."
Liu Yi had recovered her health and resumed taking charge of the family's three meals a day.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan held A Li's hand as they walked down.
For the past two days, the boy had been prone to sleep, but he would wake up at every mealtime.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan familiarly helped A Li divide various small pickles into small dishes, and after A Li helped the boy peel a salted duck egg, she peeled two more eggs.
Without the overwhelming presence of brown sugar, these boiled eggs tasted even more fragrant.
Great-grandfather, after finishing his inspection of the ancestral grave repairs yesterday, was dragged away by the old carpenter to drink again, and was only carried back by Qin Shu in the middle of the night; he hadn't woken up yet.
In the few days after the typhoon, there was no business, and Great-grandfather's frequency of drinking was very high; through a series of coincidences, he really hadn't noticed that the family's mules were all lying down.
Just after breakfast, Zhao Yi arrived.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "She left, right."
Zhao Yi: "Yeah, she went back."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "No need to send her off."
Zhao Yi: "Can you not combine two sentences into one? It makes me look like an afterthought."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "When are you leaving."
Zhao Yi: "At noon, I really miss my Jiujiang, and I also miss my Lushan."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Hmm."
Zhao Yi: "I checked the injuries of Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Runsheng, A You, and Tan Tan Tan Daban for you this morning; they are no longer a big problem, and besides, A You and Tan Tan Tan Daban have had obvious breakthroughs."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhao Yi: "You should say these polite words more often; after all, when there's really something going on, I've never seen you be polite."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Are you done, I'm sleepy again."
Zhao Yi: "Are you going to Hainan after the team is reorganized?"
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "I'm going to the Northeast first to find my teacher; are you going too?"
Zhao Yi: "I mean, don't call me to go to Hainan, and for the Northeast, cough cough... don't call me either.
This time, I earned a lot of merit, and I have to plan how to use it well.
Don't make me challenge high-difficulty tasks with you again right away; don't end up with me dead before the merit is even spent, that would be a huge loss."
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Indeed."
Zhao Yi lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then blew it forcefully toward Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan's Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face.
This smoke, just as it was about to touch him, naturally diverted to both sides in advance.
Zhao Yi licked his lips and said: "I knew my feeling was right; you surnamed Li, you are simply a freak!"
You don't practice martial arts and you walk with a limp, but the boy before me is simply walking on stilts with one leg, and the stilts can keep getting longer.
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Because a few days ago, I read some books and paintings."
Zhao Yi: "You surnamed Li, we are all our own people; the effect of that stuff is actually that good? Hehe, see these eyes of mine? They're red!"
Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "I haven't started digesting that thing yet; for now, I've only caught a whiff of it."
