As soon as she said these words, my heart skipped a beat.
I asked her, "Take care, do you mean you are leaving?"
Qingqing shook her head and said that's not the case, I just want to tell you that if one day I am no longer by your side, you must be more careful.
And that man, I can't understand him, and I don't know what happened between you, so besides this reminder, I don't know what else I can say.
I still hope you are safe and sound.
As soon as Qingqing finished speaking, the elevator door opened at the same time, and she walked out directly. I hesitated for a moment, but finally suppressed the words that came to my lips, and followed her closely for two steps.
Then I took Qingqing's hand and told her to wait a moment.
"Um?"
She turned around, and I seemed to see a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes, as if she thought I had something to say to her.
But what I said next was destined to disappoint her.
Because I really didn't plan to tell her about that, I just asked her: "How is Wu Hao's health?"
Sure enough, Qingqing's eyes dimmed immediately, but it only took a moment. She smiled and said to me: "There is no problem, she is recovering well."
I asked her again, why did you look at Wu Hao like that in the ward just now?
Qingqing tilted her head and asked me with a puzzled expression: "Eye? What look?"
I said don't try to fool me. Just now when Wu Hao was jumping around in the ward, your brows were almost wrinkled. What was that about?
She chuckled and said, ah, that's because Wu Hao's yang energy is a little weak.
Yang Qi?
I was a little confused and asked Qingqing, how can excessive blood loss affect Yang Qi?
Qingqing said 'hmm' and said: "It will have some influence, but Wu Hao's Yang Qi is a bit too weak, so I feel strange."
Then she told me, didn't Wu Hao just say that he went to visit the girl next door, maybe he did something with a girl, so he has weak yang energy, but it doesn't matter, he should be fine after recuperating for a while.
alright.
I felt relieved and told Qingqing that it would be fine. I thought his yang energy had been sucked away by ghosts, but his body was really good and he recovered pretty quickly.
"Yeah, I hope so."
Qingqing said something incomprehensible, turned around and walked directly towards the ward.
But I was a little confused. After thinking about it for a long time, I still couldn't figure out what her words meant. What does hope mean?
But Qingqing was already far away, so I didn’t have time to think too much and hurriedly caught up with her.
When we returned to the ward, Wu Hao had already packed his things and was ready to leave. The nurse on duty was not there, so the three of us sneaked out, took a taxi and ran directly to the high-speed rail station.
Nothing happened along the way, but what surprised me was that Qingqing also had an ID card. When I checked in, I took a peek and saw that the date of birth on her ID card was one year younger than mine.
But I don’t know whether this certificate is true or false.
The three of us first arrived in Jinan, stayed there for one night, and took the early morning flight the next morning. However, when we went through the security check, there was something wrong with the bottle given by the bottle named Hu.
Because when it went through the X-ray machine, it appeared on the screen as a black hole, which confused the security check people. Later, the manager came over and took the bottle, opened the cap and checked it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't see it.
Whatever happened, he just let me pass in a daze.
Later, Wu Hao asked me what the bottle was for, but I gave him a perfunctory answer and told him that it was a small object given to me by Taoist Meng, and he asked me to hold it to ward off evil spirits.
Wu Hao said "Ah" and didn't ask any more questions.
All in all, it went smoothly. When I got on the plane, I was quite emotional. I felt that I had seen more things since I came to Taishan than I had ever remembered.
But I still felt some inexplicable fear in my heart. After all, Taishan Mountain was relatively far away, but Hecheng was He Weimin's territory, so I just went back, which seemed to be no different from throwing myself into a trap.
But I had to go back, because that painting was the only hope at the moment.
Touching the puppet in my pocket, I couldn't help but ask myself, if things get irreversible, can I really be ruthless enough to use this thing?
Moral concepts and the hope of life, these two things collide in my mind, which is really a torture for me.
Maybe it was because I was too tired recently and didn't get much rest. I sat there and thought about it for a while, and fell asleep not long after.
It was almost noon when the plane landed. The three of us found a place to have a meal first. By the time we took a taxi into downtown Hecheng, it was already dark.
The weather in the Northeast is like this, especially not long after the winter solstice, and the nights are very, very long.
Wu Hao asked me when we were in the car. He said, Brother Yan, now that everything has been done, what are you going to do next? Don't you plan to go home to see your uncle and aunt?
I lied and said, wait a minute. The matter with Daozhang Meng is finished, but He Weimin still doesn’t know what’s going on. He won’t give up easily. If I go back now, it won’t be the end of my parents’ life.
Are you tired too?
Then I also told him not to mention me to my parents. I didn't want them to worry, and I would wait until the matter was completely resolved.
Wu Hao nodded and said yes, then asked me, what should I do for you next?
To be honest, I was quite moved by Wu Hao's words, but I still felt a little helpless.
Because I really don’t want him to get involved anymore. This time, Taishan and his party made me understand that this matter is much more complicated than I thought. If he follows me again, he might easily end up with his life.
Go in.
Especially the fact that he was injured made me even more determined in my thoughts.
So after hesitating for a moment, I shook my head and told Wu Hao that you just wait for my news. You won't be able to help with the next thing. Anyway, Qingqing is here, so you don't have to be too worried.
Thinking about me, if you have time, come to my house and help me see my parents.
Wu Hao also sighed and said, okay, you should pay attention to your own safety anyway.
After saying this, he turned around and asked Qingqing: "Where are you going, Sister Qing? How about we take you back first?"
But what Qingqing said next made us both stunned.
She looked at Wu Hao, pointed her finger at me and said very naturally: "I will go wherever Gu Yan's family is."
Wu Hao's eyes widened.
I was also a little confused. I turned my head blankly and looked at Qingqing and asked: "Do you mean to go to my house?"
But she said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Aren't you talking nonsense? My home is by the river, dozens of kilometers away from here. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to come here in time!"
Normally what she said makes sense, but I always felt that something was wrong.
I blinked my eyes twice and was about to say something, but before I could open my mouth, I heard Qingqing say again: "Why are you pretending? It's not like we have never slept together."
