In Xu Nuo's surprised eyes, the handsome blond man walked up to our table and sat down opposite us naturally without waiting for my invitation: "Mr. Gu, the prince asked me to come to you."
"I guessed it, I could smell the deathly aura on your body from a long way away."
Not wanting to attract the attention of the people around me, I pretended to be familiar with him, picked up the drink bottle in front of me and poured him a drink: "In China, there are not as many capable people as there are in your country, so it's best to be more restrained in doing things."
The vampire took the cup and said, "Sorry, time is tight. I just wanted to find you quickly and didn't have time to think about this issue."
"Do you know Gu Yan?"
The two of us spoke English, which was a bit difficult for Xu Xu, a poor student, to understand.
She looked at the vampire opposite, then turned to look at me: "What are you two talking about?"
"This is a friend of mine who came to talk to me about something."
I winked at Xu Nuo, meaning to ask her to be quiet for a while.
Then I asked the vampire: "He asked you to come to me because there was news about Zhang Qi?"
"Yes, she was imprisoned in Kuye by the people from Tianxin Island."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xu and said, "Ever since that incident, we have been searching for Miss Zhang's traces, and we have lost hundreds of clan members before we finally found out the news.
The prince asked me to tell Mr. Gu that he estimates that those people will leave for Tianxin Island in a week at most. Once Miss Zhang is imprisoned there, there will be no possibility of us rescuing her."
After saying this, he paused, and then stared into my eyes: "There is another question that the prince wants me to relay to Mr. Gu."
"you say."
"He asked me to ask you, Miss Zhang loves you wholeheartedly, even risking her own life just to save you from trouble, but you ran back to the country without saying a word, without any intention of saving her, so Mr. Gu, you
Do you think you are worthy of Miss Zhang?"
What this vampire said was like stabbing me in the heart with a knife.
But what they said is indeed true. Zhang Qi got herself involved in order to save me, but I am still sitting here chatting with Xu Nuo. No matter how you look at this matter, I have no conscience.
Really, sometimes I envy Duan Tian, and I think it would be great if I knew his trick of avatar.
If so, then I must divide myself into ten or eight, one to find Yingying, one to save Zhang Qi, and one to deal with all these messy things including promises.
Thinking about it, it has only been a few days since I came back from Europe. One thing happened one after another. I forgot how long it had been since I had stopped. Even when I was eating, I was still thinking about my next step.
do what.
I originally wanted to go find Uncle Yang tomorrow because I always felt that Yingying's disappearance had something to do with him.
And Zheng Qian, he actually hired a killer to kill my father. I have to find out his details and how he met Uncle Yang.
But now Daniel's people have found him.
He kept staring at me with that questioning look, so I always had to defend myself: "I'm sorry for Zhang Qi, but I also asked the people who stayed in Europe to find Zhang Qi, but you are more
They found her first, which was a bit unexpected."
The vampire shrugged: "You don't need to explain to me, my task is just to convey the prince's will to you.
He asked me to tell Mr. Gu that in five days, he will take all the tribesmen to rescue Miss Zhang. If Mr. Gu is willing, then take the people you left in Europe with you. Even if you don't go yourself, let them cooperate with us.
That’s fine.
Of course, this is just a request, not an order. How to do it depends on you. Now that my task is completed, I say goodbye. I hope to see you on Sakhalin Island in five days."
He stood up as he spoke.
I stopped him: "Where is Daniel now?"
"Vladivostok is the nearest big city to Kuzhe. It's safer for us to lurk there."
"The Orthodox people didn't give you any trouble?"
"Right now, there is a lot of chaos within the Orthodox Church. The three major families in the church are arguing with the Ecumenical Council about the legality of Sofia's succession to the Patriarchate. They have no time to take care of us."
He bowed slightly to me: "Well, Mr. Gu, see you in five days."
This time he turned and left directly after finishing speaking.
I kept watching him go out, watching him slowly walk from the streetlight into the shadow, and finally merge into the darkness and disappear.
When I looked away, the voice of promise also sounded in my ears: "Gu Yan, are you leaving again?"
I looked out the window and nodded slightly: "Well, how do you know?"
"I understood a few words, something like five days, Europe, etc."
She stood up, walked back to her original position, and picked up the coat hanging on the chair: "The most important thing is that I understood a woman's name."
I raised my head and smiled at her: "When I go back, I can learn more English when I have nothing to do. After all, I have many skills and it is not too much for me. Once you learn it well, you will be able to understand our conversations in the future."
"It's better not to use it. The more I know, the more troubles I will have. I might as well stay confused."
She put on her coat, grabbed the car keys on the table and asked me, "Aren't you leaving?"
"Go, go."
I also stood up and grabbed my coat in my hand: "What happens now? Should I take you home, or do you want to go to my house for a while?"
"Is it convenient to go to your house?"
Xu Nuo glanced at his watch: "It's almost eight o'clock, aren't you going to do something?"
I originally wanted to tell her that there was no rush to do things that night, but I just planned to contact Zhuo Yi after returning home to ask her what happened in Europe while I was away.
But before I could say anything, Xu Nuo's phone rang first.
She glanced at the screen and then threw the keys to me: "My dad called. You first get in the car and turn on the heater for a while while I wait for me. I'll go to the bathroom and answer the phone."
"Okay, go ahead."
I took the keys, got out of the car and turned on the ignition. I sat in the passenger seat and waited for about two or three minutes. The door on the passenger side was gently opened.
Xu Nuo sat in without saying a word and fastened his seat belt, but he just sat and had no intention of shifting into forward gear.
I turned around and asked her: "How..."
I couldn't say what I said later because I saw that Xu Nuo was in a very low mood at the moment and his eyes were a little red.
"Gu Yan, I won't go to your house today."
I nodded and looked at her without saying a word. In fact, I was still a little curious about what happened to her.
Xu Nuo may also understand what I mean, so he suppressed his tears and continued: "Something happened at home suddenly. I have to go back now. You can go and do your work. Just remember to call me when you get back.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, but something like this happened before the Chinese New Year. This is really..."
After Xu Nuo finished speaking, he couldn't control his emotions, and his words were interrupted by a sob.
