On the way to find Huo Tingyu, Xu Sheng thought a lot.
Until he knocked on Huo Tingyu's door and saw Huo Tingyu, Xu Sheng was kneeling on the ground, looking miserable.
When Huo Tingyu saw Xu Sheng's appearance, his first reaction was that something had happened to Chen Jinjun.
"What's wrong?" Huo Tingyu frowned and looked at Xu Sheng, who was kneeling on the ground with tears in his eyes.
"Go back to Marshal, my boss just woke up and wants to see you."
Xu Sheng deliberately left a message for Huo Tingyu, just because he didn't want Huo Tingyu to refuse.
After all, such a big thing happened, and my boss has been in a coma for two days. No matter what, I can't make it easy for this handsome man.
Sure enough, when he heard that Chen Jinjun had just woken up, the expression on Huo Tingyu's face immediately became weird.
"Just woke up? What happened?" Huo Tingyu said, standing up from his chair.
Xu Sheng lowered his head: "My boss fainted that day and didn't wake up until now, so he asked me to invite you over."
Xu Sheng said it sincerely, as if Huo Tingyu could just take a look at Chen Jinjun and it was already done for him.
Huo Tingyu didn't ask any questions and let Xu Sheng take him to Chen's house.
After arriving at Chen's house, Huo Tingyu felt that the atmosphere around him was very different.
Huo Tingyu, who couldn't guess the reason, felt as if he had done something wrong.
But I thought about it again and again, and I couldn't figure out what I had done to make the entire Chen family look at me like this.
Could it be that... I can no longer hide this matter?
Just as he was thinking this, Huo Tingyu saw Yu Ce passing by.
Huo Tingyu's eyelids jumped unconsciously.
really.
Yu Ce had returned from the capital. He and Shao Peichen were able to block the news from the entire Yongzhou, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not control the news from the capital.
When Yu Ce came back like this, Chen Jinjun naturally knew everything.
What's more, Xu Sheng just said that Chen Jinjun was unconscious for two days and one night.
Thinking of this, Huo Tingyu's back couldn't help but feel a little tight.
When Huo Tingyu walked into Chen Jinjun's room tremblingly and saw Chen Jinjun's figure, he stopped.
Chen Jinjun was sitting on the bed and naturally heard Huo Tingyu's footsteps.
"You're here."
Her voice was very soft.
Huo Tingyu hummed: "Here we come."
Chen Jinjun chuckled: "If you think about it carefully, we haven't seen each other for a long time. The last time we met was at the Jianghu meeting in Nanshan."
Huo Tingyu didn't speak or move.
He also wanted to step forward, hold Chen Jinjun's hand, and see if her face was fresh.
But in my heart I just couldn't get over this hurdle.
Seeing that Huo Tingyu didn't speak, Chen Jinjun sighed quietly: "What do you want to do?"
Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun's figure steadily: "Protect Yongzhou, protect you."
After hearing Huo Tingyu's answer, Chen Jinjun smiled and shook his head, and said helplessly: "Then you still want to hide such a big thing from me?"
Her voice was weak, containing sadness and desolation, which made Huo Tingyu unable to breathe for a while.
Huo Tingyu's voice was low: "You know everything."
There is no doubt, but direct affirmation.
Chen Jinjun didn't hide it at all: "Yes, otherwise how long will you keep it secret from me?"
"Is it possible that you have to wait until the Japanese pirates arrive at Yongzhou City before you can let me know a little bit of the truth?"
Huo Tingyu subconsciously wanted to refute Chen Jinjun's statement, but he knew in his heart that Chen Jinjun was right.
Unable to argue, Huo Tingyu said hoarsely: "I just want to protect you."
Then, Huo Tingyu saw Chen Jinjun behind the gauze curtain and shook his head: "You are not protecting me, but you want me to watch you and the entire Yongzhou die in front of me."
"No, the northwest is still relatively safe. Now we have only reached the northeast. When that time comes, Yongzhou will definitely be able to protect itself."
Huo Tingyu said word for word. As he spoke, he always paid attention to Chen Jinjun's figure.
Chen Jinjun moved, and she felt her body gradually regain a little strength. She stood up and walked towards Huo Tingyu.
For some reason, Huo Tingyu began to panic inexplicably as he watched Chen Jinjun's approaching figure.
His lips moved slightly, as if he was being fixed, and he stared blankly at Chen Jinjun walking towards him.
There was no trace of blood on her face, and it was as fragile as a piece of weathered paper that would break if touched.
But when Huo Tingyu met Chen Jinjun's eyes, he saw the determination in Chen Jinjun's eyes that was hard to ignore.
She walked up to him and said to him: "You are not protecting me, but you are trying to isolate me from the world and live only for you."
Huo Tingyu subconsciously wanted to deny Chen Jinjun's statement, but when he looked at Chen Jinjun's eyes, his throat was so tight that he couldn't say a word.
There was a smile on Chen Jinjun's lips, and he looked a little sad: "Huo Tingyu, in your eyes, am I, Chen Jinjun, so unworthy of the storm?"
Chen Jinjun was very sad.
She could understand that Huo Tingyu wanted to protect herself by hiding it from her, but Chen Jinjun didn't expect that Huo Tingyu didn't trust her so much.
"After all, I, Chen Jinjun, have come all the way from the previous dynasty. How can you think of me as someone who doesn't understand anything?"
Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun's pale face and felt a dull pain in his heart.
He denied it flatly: "No."
But looking at Chen Jinjun's face and the sad eyes, Huo Tingyu couldn't say a word.
But that's okay, she just knew that this incident happened, but she didn't know that General Takahashi, the Japanese pirate in the northeast, was Fujikawa's superior.
That's fine. She won't blame herself. She just treats it as if it happened by chance. That's enough.
Just when Huo Tingyu was thinking this, Chen Jinjun grabbed Huo Tingyu's sleeve and looked into Huo Tingyu's eyes with a frown: "Are you hiding something from me?"
Huo Tingyu immediately shook his head.
Chen Jinjun narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at Huo Tingyu's expression.
When Chen Jinjun looked at him like this, Huo Tingyu couldn't stand it anymore and turned away.
Chen Jinjun immediately confirmed his suspicion.
She turned to Huo Tingyu and said, "Tell me."
Huo Tingyu opened his mouth, knowing that he could not hide it from Chen Jinjun, and said with difficulty: "The general Takahashi of the Japanese pirates in the northeast was the superior of Mr. Fujikawa in Rongcheng."
After talking about the crisis, Huo Tingyu always paid attention to Chen Jinjun's expression, fearing that Chen Jinjun would be stimulated.
After Chen Jinjun heard Huo Tingyu's words, he was stunned for a while and suddenly thought of something.
She looked directly at Huo Tingyu: "You are afraid that I will think too much, right? Let me tell you, Fujikawa's death is inevitable. If he is allowed to live, the military expenditure of the Japanese pirates in the Northeast will only be much higher."
Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun blankly, as if he didn't expect to say such a thing.
Chen Jinjun looked at Huo Tingyu's expression and knew that Huo Tingyu was overthinking it at that time, so he could only sigh quietly.
Only then did Huo Tingyu react: "So, my worries are unnecessary?"
Chen Jinjun nodded.
Huo Tingyu stared at Chen Jinjun blankly for a long time. A smile that had not appeared for a long time appeared on his face, and he suddenly held Chen Jinjun in his arms.
