"Who is he? I really don't know this." Chen Kainan asked subconsciously with his eyes moving slightly.
Oops, I was slightly shocked. Could the old lady reveal my identity at this time?
No, absolutely not!
Although exposing my identity can make Chen Kainan trust me 100%, it will undoubtedly ruin my business.
Because I also don't believe Chen Kainan's words. Once he knows my identity, due to the difference in stance, he will definitely tell Chen Longxiang. By then, all my revenge plans will be ruined.
Although I knew that the old lady really wanted to recognize me as her grandson, and I really couldn't bear it, I still quickly interrupted her.
"Old lady, what are you talking about?"
The old lady was more excited than I imagined. She looked at me blankly, "Child, why can't you say it? Do you have to carry these things all the time? How old are you! This is unfair to you!
"
As the old lady spoke, tears began to flow down her face.
Seeing the old lady show her true feelings, I also felt bad. From the first time we met, she has been trying to get to know me. This affection is touching!
Human beings are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? How could I not be a little shaken?
But when I think about my father's death and my mother crying her eyes out, my heart becomes colder little by little.
If I want to avenge my father and redress my mother's grievance, I must endure it, endure it fiercely! Even if my teeth are broken, I have to swallow it myself.
"Old lady, you have recognized the wrong person. You have just recovered from a serious illness. You must have a good rest and don't be confused again. Otherwise, if something happens again, I won't be able to help you."
The old lady was stunned and looked at me, her throat rolling slightly. She had met countless people throughout her life, how could she not understand the meaning of my words?
At this moment, the old man's eyes were dim!
My close relatives are in front of me, but I can't recognize them. I understand how the old man feels.
"Yes, yes, my child, you are right, I am old and confused." The old lady said while wiping her tears.
I didn't dare to look into her eyes, so I turned to face Chen Kainan, took a deep breath and said:
"Master Chen, I have one last thing to say about our cooperation. As the saying goes, suspicion breeds hidden ghosts. I hope you won't let your petty heart miss the big deal. You just need to remember that I will definitely do what I promised you.
This is good for self-examination!"
After saying these words, I stopped looking at the old lady and turned around and walked out of the tent.
The old lady has understood my thoughts, and I believe she will stop talking nonsense. As for how to explain to Chen Kainan, I don't think it is a problem.
The moment I walked out of the tent, I took a long breath of the cold air outside. It felt like a huge stone had been pressed down on my heart, so heavy that I wanted to suffocate.
The moment I left, the Gu insects finally surrounded me from all directions. These little bugs appeared silently around the camp, firmly guarding the area within tens of meters, like the most loyal guards.
Now, I suddenly discovered that although there are so many people around me, under the shadow of Mr. Black, the only ones I can really rely on are a bunch of emotionless bugs who only obey orders.
Just like the fat man just now, a moment ago, I clearly noticed his abnormality, but in the blink of an eye, he became the good friend I am familiar with.
He is not the first, and he is certainly not the last. Unless Mr. Black dies, everyone around me may become the next person controlled by him.
No one knows how much pressure I am under now. I feel like my spirit is breaking down so quickly!
My father's blood feud...
Grandpa's last words...
Mother's life and death crisis...
The return journey of Li Yilong's remnant soul...
Wang Shengli’s factory survives...
And the safety of everyone around you!
Each one of them is like the courage weighing on me, getting heavier and heavier, not to mention that there is an old man waiting to be buried in Seoul.
Right now, I'm surrounded by powerful enemies, and I'm lost in the unknown. In addition to Mr. Black, there are also mysterious mountain gods spying on me. All of this is like the sword of Damocles floating above my head. God knows when it will give me a fatal blow.
I don't even know if I can grab the Phoenix Flower this time, just like I don't know if I can leave alive.
To be honest, I felt like my brain was about to burst, but I could only grit my teeth and tell myself that I must persevere.
I found a stone and sat down, closed my eyes, and began to feel the messages from the Gu insects around me, guarding against any possible dangers.
Compared with useless worries, taking action is the best way to protect yourself.
I don’t know if this is the growth of a man, but I know that this is my responsibility. I have decided one thing in my heart, I must do my best to protect everyone’s safety.
Not far away, under the fallen leaves, among the trees, and even in the soil, there are also countless Gu insects lurking secretly. Although they are widely scattered, there are so many pairs of eyes staring at the plants and trees around me. Everything is under my control. Under the surveillance, if anything dares to come close, I will know immediately.
This gives me some peace of mind.
Just as I was breathing a sigh of relief, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind me, "Are you worried?"
I was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Hu Qiu.
She stood one meter behind me and looked at me with a worried expression.
"No, what's wrong?" I forced a smile.
Hu Qiu smiled, walked next to me and waved to me. I quickly moved to the side, leaving half of the space. Hu Qiu sat down close to me, sitting side by side with me.
I thought Hu Qiu would say something, but after sitting for a while, she said nothing. She just accompanied me and looked at the Fenghuang Ancient City at my feet.
It wasn't until a long time after he came that Hu Qiu slowly said, "With so many things going on, you must be under a lot of pressure, right?"
I turned to look at Hu Qiu in surprise, and said with a smile: "What pressure? There is no pressure at all?!"
Hu Qiu looked at me and sighed softly, with an expression on his face that said, "You lied to me."
Then, her eyes fell on my forehead, and she slowly stretched out her hand.
I subconsciously hid next to him.
"do not move!"
I quickly sat still.
Hu Qiu's fingers gently passed through my short hair, and he pinched a hair and gave it a strong squeeze.
"Hey, it hurts!" I gasped.
Hu Qiu stretched out his hand in front of me, holding a short white hair between his thumb and index finger.
"You are young and have gray hair. Let me pluck it out for you, otherwise you will look old." Hu Qiu said with a smile.
I hummed and lowered my head slightly.
A gust of cool breeze blew by, and I breathed a refreshing chill into my lungs. The stress in my heart seemed to be blown away a lot.
None of us spoke. Hu Qiu concentrated on pulling out my white hair. I lowered my head and looked at the ancient city of Phoenix below my feet.
Time seems to have stopped, drawing us into the picture.
