(Walking on the street today, I suddenly remembered a sentence: If I hadn’t met you, where would I be? Yes, close your eyes and think about it, if I hadn’t met you...)
It's late at night and the breeze is blowing.
The autumn wind blows up the fallen leaves and ruffles the pond water.
The Chinese Alliance, amidst thousands of lights, fell into silence.
In this quiet night, except for the dim street lights of Haoran College, which are still on, some areas that cannot be illuminated by the lights are dark, as if ink has been splashed. In this environment, a bright light in the office building is
It looks extremely dazzling.
Chu Changfeng was standing by the window, looking at the lonely starry sky outside the window and wondering what he was thinking.
At this time every day, he would stand in front of the window and look at the world outside. However, the night was very dark and he could only see a hundred feet away. However, this did not prevent him from seeing the world. Standing by the window, the cool breeze blew.
Moving the ends of his hair, he seemed to see a returning passenger sitting alone on the bus looking out the window, a child who suddenly woke up and cried, he also saw young men and women arguing on the street, and some young men and women quarreling on the street.
People who are still working hard late at night...
Chu Changfeng also saw himself.
Through the reflective glass, he saw the face that was no longer young, the thick stubble, the tired face and the bloodshot eyes.
At this moment, he suddenly wanted to go home, but where is home? The house allocated by Haoran College? That is not home, just a place to rest. Go back to the Chu family in the city that never sleeps? That is not home, because there is nothing he wants to see in it.
Man, where are you going? Where is your home?
This was destined to be a sleepless night, because Chu Changfeng thought of Chu Feiyun.
Chu Changfeng remembered that when he was a child, Chu Feiyun took him to eat various snacks. Every time he gave out New Year's money during the New Year, he would always give all the money to him. When he was older, Chu Feiyun began to force him to practice martial arts.
, the two of them stood together in the hot summer, and played snowball fights with bare feet in the snow when it snowed. One time, he broke the old man's pipe and was so scared that he didn't dare to go home in the middle of the night. Later, Chu Changfeng found him.
He said to himself: "Brother, it's okay."
Even after so many years, Chu Changfeng still remembered the smile on Chu Feiyun's face that night. Chu Feiyun, who had a scar on the corner of his mouth, smiled and pulled the wound on his face that couldn't help but twitch.
At that time, Chu Feiyun was already very tall. Chu Changfeng looked at Chu Feiyun holding his shoulders as if he was seeing the sky above his head.
Later, Chu Feiyun relied on his skills and generosity to become the head of the Chu family, and later became the executive officer of the China Alliance. Chu Changfeng stood behind Chu Feiyun and looked at Chu Feiyun.
Going higher and higher - he knew that Chu Feiyun had always wanted to be the guardian of the Chinese Alliance.
Even now, Chu Changfeng still remembers that when he and Huo Xueman were engaged, Chu Feiyun was very drunk and patted his shoulder and said: "Brother, when you get married and have a baby, don't worry about anything. You have a brother."
Well, when we grow old, we can travel around the world together."
However, Chu Feiyun died and his body was not found.
In the past few years, Chu Changfeng frantically searched for the cause of Chu Feiyun's death, but found nothing. Over the years, Chu Changfeng had become accustomed to staring out the window alone in a daze.
It's just that the thoughts that have been suppressed in my heart recently came up again - nearly ten years have passed, Chu Changfeng thought that he was the only one who still cared about one thing, but Chu Changfeng was wrong, because Chu Yu was also concerned about this matter.
thing.
Even though Chu Feiyun has become a dead person who is rarely mentioned.
Thinking of Chu Yu, Chu Changfeng smiled unconsciously. At noon, he heard others talking and knew that Chu Yu had caused trouble again. Chu Changfeng did not expect that Chu Yu would be in the Gangqi realm with Cao Huiti.
The leaders of the younger generation will use the most primitive and childish methods to fight to the death with one punch and one kick.
How should this child let himself say it?
Thinking of this, Chu Changfeng sighed. Chu Yu and Cao Huiti had violated the rules of the Chinese Alliance by competing outside Haoran Academy. I wonder if Chu Yu has come out of the Alliance Building now? With Cao Jiande's character, he should
He will not wrong his children, and Chu Yu who is implicated should be fine. But Chu Changfeng knows that there are many people secretly watching Chu Yu. Chu Yu can now be said to be walking on thin ice, just in case...
Thinking about it, Chu Changfeng smiled helplessly. How much can he help Chu Yu if there are many capable people in the China Alliance? He looked away. Just when Chu Changfeng was about to close the window, he saw a figure flying quickly in Haoran Academy late at night.
After a few ups and downs, it landed lightly downstairs in the office area.
Standing downstairs in the office building, looking at the still bright office upstairs, Chu Yu hesitated for a moment, then walked upstairs. When he came to Chu Changfeng's office door, Chu Yu raised his arm and knocked lightly.
Door.
Chu Changfeng smiled when he heard the knock on the door and said softly: "The door is unlocked, come in."
Opening the door and looking at Chu Changfeng who was standing by the window smoking a cigarette with his back to him, Chu Yu said, "Uncle Chu, I just came back from the Alliance Building. I saw that the lights were on here, so I came to take a look."
Chu Changfeng turned around, looked at Chu Yu and nodded: "The people in the alliance didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
"Cao Huiti took all the blame on himself. I just made a record and fined some money symbolically, but the money was also paid by Cao Huiti."
"Cao Huiti has an upright character, and he is considered very good among the younger generation." Chu Changfeng said, turning around and pouring a cup of boiling water for Chu Yu, and put the tea on the table in front of Chu Yu.
He opened the chair next to him and sat down: "You should also sit down and take a rest."
Chu Yu nodded and sat down in front of Chu Changfeng. He picked up the tea cup and blew on it before taking a sip of hot tea. Chu Yu put down the cup and looked up at Chu Changfeng. Chu Changfeng did not look at Chu Yu.
, he frowned slightly as he stared at the cigarette butt in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Uncle Chu, don't you want to know what I want to see you for?" Chu Yu waited for a few minutes and saw that Chu Changfeng had no intention of speaking first, so he had no choice but to break the silence.
"If you want to say it, you will definitely say it. If you don't want to say it, it's useless for me to ask." Chu Changfeng said in a deep voice without looking back.
"Uncle Chu, can I trust you?" Chu Yu asked calmly, but he was only 30% sure.
After hearing this, Chu Changfeng slowly raised his head and stared at Chu Yu for a full minute. Neither of them spoke, and their anger suddenly became tense.
"Chu Yu, do you want to tell me what you found in the Huo family?" Chu Changfeng stared into Chu Yu's eyes and spoke slowly. The expression on his face did not change, but his heart became turbulent.
Chu Yu nodded: "Uncle Chu, before answering your question, can I ask you a question?"
"You ask." Chu Changfeng looked at Chu Yu and nodded. In order to cover up his inner nervousness, Chu Changfeng pushed the chair away and poured himself a cup of tea.
"That day I went to the Huo family, why did you tell the Huo family my location?" When he said this, Chu Yu did not look at Chu Changfeng, but stared at the tea with white smoke in front of him, thinking in his heart
I was thinking about whether I could say something.
"That's an exchange." Seeing Chu Yu ask this, Chu Changfeng smiled bitterly: "I don't know why Huo Xueman is looking for you, I just want her to let you go."
"So now the Huo family won't cause trouble for me?" Thinking of the Huo family's attitude toward him after waking up from the battle on the rooftop, Chu Yu frowned.
Chu Changfeng shook his head: "I don't have that much face. Huo Xueman doesn't embarrass you. It must be for other reasons." Chu Changfeng thought of something as he said this. He leaned forward slightly and looked at Chu Yu and asked: "Chu Yu, you
Do you know who was responsible for the murder of members of the five major families that night?"
"I don't know. I was seriously injured that night. I didn't know what happened until I woke up."
"Then who saved you?"
"It would be great if I knew." Chu Yu also looked confused: "Then why do the newspapers say I am a great hero?"
"Except for the heads of the five major families, I'm afraid no one knows the reason." Chu Changfeng said and took a sip of hot tea: "Chu Yu, I have already said the questions you asked me. Let me ask you a few questions next.
.”
Seeing Chu Yu nod, Chu Changfeng sorted out his thoughts and asked, "I have three questions."
"First, you entered the castle in the air in the Huo family library, right?"
Chu Yu nodded.
"Well, you found what you always wanted in the castle in the air, right?"
Chu Yu still nodded.
"Very well, if I advise you to give up and continue to search for the truth, will you be willing?"
Chu Yu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then looked up at Chu Changfeng and shook his head.
"What if you die trying to find the truth?"
Hearing Chu Changfeng's words, Chu Yu smiled silently: "Uncle Chu, you don't have to test me anymore. If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't come to you."
After listening to Chu Yu's words, Chu Changfeng squinted his eyes and looked at Chu Yu. After a moment, he suddenly said: "I really want to know what secrets you discovered in the Huo family. But..." At this point, Chu Changfeng paused:
"If you can trust me, you must promise me one thing. Otherwise, you can leave now."
"I want to know what it is first." Chu Yu put his hands on the table and gently rubbed the palm of his left hand with his right thumb.
"Tell me what you found and leave the matter to me to investigate. You can take care of Chu Chu at Haoran College." Chu Changfeng said and drank the hot tea in the cup in front of him: "Chu Chu is still young now and needs someone to take care of her.
In addition, you are too conspicuous now, and it is inconvenient to do some things. The most important thing is that your current strength is not good enough." Chu Changcheng said with a cold look on his face: "The person who can kill my brother should be about the same strength.
Where to go."
"It's not as simple as strength, but power." Chu Yu said and nodded: "I promise you, but you have to tell me the progress of the matter at any time."
"This is natural." Chu Changfeng said, closing his eyes and silently looking around: "There is no one here. Go ahead and tell me everything you found from the Huo family word for word."
After saying hello, Chu Yu recounted bit by bit what he saw on the death file of Chu Feiyun that day at the Huo family. The time was very fast, and when Chu Yu finished telling what he had written down,
, nearly half an hour has passed, and Chu Changfeng remained silent for a long time after listening.
After a while, Chu Changfeng closed his eyes and slowly leaned back heavily on the chair. Chu Yu didn't say anything, but remained silent.
"I know where to start." After a few minutes, Chu Changfeng suddenly straightened up, his eyes shining with determination: "They still left a flaw after all."
After hearing Chu Changfeng's words, Chu Yu smiled, and then the two discussed for a long time. When Chu Yu came out of Chu Changfeng's office, the sky in the east was already slightly bright, and the autumn morning was already slightly cold.
Chu Yu squinted his eyes and looked to the east - the sun was already halfway exposed
, the sky was dyed blood red. Chu Yu, who lit a cigarette, lowered his head and took a deep breath. The smoke was inhaled into his lungs. Chu Yu felt that all the pores on his body were opened, and he looked at the smoke he slowly exhaled.
Smoke, after calming down for a while, I walked towards the library of Haoran College.
When Chu Yu came to the library, he saw the figure of a pretty woman standing outside the library from a distance. Chu Yu couldn't help but be startled - outside the solemn library, Cao Man, wearing a sky blue sweater and white trousers, was reading.
I paced back and forth on the steps in front of the museum, the sunshine in the autumn morning shining softly.
On the woman's body and face, there is a touch of sadness in her eyes, her beautiful eyebrows are slightly frowned, and her black hair is jumping slightly on her back as the woman paces gently, and a gust of autumn wind blows, turning
Pulling up a few slender hairs, Chu Yu was lost in thought for a moment and didn't even want to break the silence.
