In an alley, Ye Chuxia looked at Chen Qiu in front of her with a worried face. She could not imagine what Chen Qiu had experienced in these days.
Chen Qiu now looked completely different from what she had imagined in her mind. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was limping when he walked. The most important thing was that the pair of eyes that once exuded the light of confidence were dimmed at this moment.
There is only a void and numbness left.
"Brother Qiu." Ye Chuxia's eyes flashed with tears and she threw herself into Chen Qiu's arms: "What's wrong with you?"
Chen Qiu felt Ye Chuxia's heartbeat and the warmth of each other, but he didn't want to be immersed in this gentle countryside. He pushed Ye Chuxia away and said seriously: "Chuxia, do you have money now?"
"Money?" Ye Chuxia couldn't help but be stunned, a little surprised: "Do you want money?"
Chen Qiu nodded heavily: "Yeah, can you lend me some money and I will pay it back to you when the time comes, okay?"
Ye Chuxia asked while touching her pocket: "How much do you want? And, what do you want the money for?"
Ye Chuxia was surprised. The Su family was not short of money, and Huo Chen was also very rich. Why would Chen Qiu ask for money from him?
"I..." Chen Qiu touched his head and said with a blushing face, "I'm too embarrassed to ask them. Don't worry, I will definitely return it to you in the future."
Ye Chuxia took out her wallet. She didn't bring much cash, probably only a few hundred yuan. She frowned: "But I only have these few hundred yuan on my body now, and I still have some in my card. Otherwise,
I'll go to the bank and take out the money and give it to you."
"No need." Chen Qiu took the money and gritted his teeth and said: "A few hundred yuan is enough. Thank you. Chu Xia, by the way, you must not tell anyone about the fact that I came to see you today.
Don’t tell Mr. Ye, you know?”
"What happened? Brother Qiu." Ye Chuxia said worriedly: "Did something happen to you? If so, I can tell grandpa. He will not sit idly by and do nothing. If the problem is solved with money,
I can tell my parents that although they have never met you, they appreciate you very much and agree that we can be together, and they will definitely help you."
"This..." Chen Qiu sighed deeply: "Some words can't be explained in a few words. In fact, it's nothing. It's my own problem. I don't want to trouble others. Chu Xia, remember what I said, don't mention me to anyone.
I’ve met you, you know?”
"No!" Ye Chuxia frowned: "You have to tell me what happened. You are covered with injuries. Now you are asking me for money and telling me not to tell anyone else. How can I not be worried? Could it be that I am in your
Is your position in your heart so light?"
Chen Qiu shook his head hastily: "No, Chu Xia, don't get me wrong." Seeing Ye Chuxia's worried look, Chen Qiu was really afraid that she would tell others. In desperation, he could only sigh: "I, my current martial arts is gone.
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to practice martial arts anymore.”
"Ah?" Ye Chuxia was stunned for a moment, very surprised, but soon she said: "It's okay, brother Qiu. In fact, I have always been worried about you before. Being strong in martial arts has its advantages, but it also has disadvantages. I don't want you to go through that again.
Let's fight and kill each other, why don't we just stay in Jiangcheng? Let's buy a house and get a dog." Her eyes were full of longing, as if she was thinking about a bright future, and a sweet smile filled the corners of her mouth: "There are not so many grudges and grudges.
Qiu, the only thing we have is our two-person world."
Chen Qiu's eyes were downcast. He didn't want to have the beautiful life that Ye Chuxia imagined.
However, those short and long love affairs do not belong to me, and I am destined not to have a peaceful life.
It is estimated that the news of his loss of martial arts will soon spread to the Long family, and when the time comes, they will definitely send someone to kill him.
And I have no inner strength, how can I resist? If I really stay, wouldn't it be a burden to Huo Chen and Senior Sister Su?
It would be okay if the Long family only targeted themselves, but if they targeted Chu Xia, Huo Chen, or Senior Sister Su, the consequences would be disastrous.
In the world of martial arts, it's easy to get in, but to figure it out, it's by no means simple. There are too many things you can't help yourself.
So now the only thing Chen Qiu can think of is to escape, leave before the Long family takes action, and escape to a place where no one knows him.
"Chu Xia." Chen Qiu abruptly interrupted Ye Chuxia's longing, and said seriously: "I will come back after a while, and then I will come to you to ensure safety. Believe me, I am just going out to avoid the limelight temporarily.
"
Ye Chuxia's expression was gloomy. Her pitiful appearance made Chen Qiu feel very distressed. After holding her in his arms, Chen Qiu comforted her: "It's okay, don't worry, trust me, okay?"
Ye Chuxia nodded obediently, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised her head, stood on tiptoes and gave Chen Qiu a kiss on the face, and said solemnly: "I, then I will wait for you, and you must take care of your own health.
Immediately, she took out a bank card from her pocket: "You take the card, I will transfer money to the card every week."
"No need." Chen Qiu blushed a little, always feeling like a spoiled pretty boy: "I, I actually have money, but it's just not convenient to use it now, so you don't need to give it to me."
Ye Chuxia didn't think much and could only say: "Okay, then where do you plan to go?"
Chen Qiu shook his head: "I don't know either."
...
After saying goodbye to Ye Chuxia, Chen Qiu stopped a car on the side of the road and drove him to the foot of a mountain far away from the city.
"Young man, mountain climbing starts in the morning. You're too late." The taxi driver reminded me in a friendly manner: "It's going to be dark soon. Why are you climbing in the dark?"
Chen Qiu chuckled and said, "To watch the sunrise."
"The young man is quite charming, so please pay attention to your safety."
As the taxi engine roared, the car sped away, and Chen Qiu stepped into the mountains.
Chen Qiu had been to this mountain before. When he learned that Senior Sister Leng was going down the mountain, he hurriedly took a taxi to get here, but was still caught by Senior Sister Su.
Thinking of this, Chen Qiu's heart tightened, and he suddenly remembered that Senior Sister Su had shares in the taxi company.
But it doesn't matter, she probably hasn't woken up yet.
The main reason why Chen Qiu left here was that there were very few surveillances here and it was difficult to be discovered. As long as those surveillances were avoided, even when Senior Sister Su woke up, she would only think that she was hiding in the mountain.
As dusk came, the scorching sun that hung high in the sky exuded its last warmth, and a cold wind blew past, causing Chen Qiu to wrap up his clothes tightly.
Deep down in his heart, Chen Qiu didn't want to leave Jiangcheng. He looked forward to what Su Wan'er would look like when she woke up.
But in this world, there are always too many things that one cannot control. In order not to become a burden to them, Chen Qiu had to leave.
With the master protecting the Su family, there will be no trouble.
The autumn wind rustled, and there were many fallen leaves on the roadside, showing a little bit of sadness. When I looked up, I saw a strong burning cloud on the horizon.
In the hurried world, who can have the last laugh among the thousands of romances, who can step on the stage of success, and who can be surrounded by stars and the moon. The short life is like the dusk of the setting sun and the lingering wind, and tomorrow is the dawn again.
's dawn is approaching.
Chen Qiu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, dragging his embarrassed body, and every step he took was extremely heavy.
After a while, he had to sit on the side of the road to rest. Because he left in a hurry, he didn't even bring a bottle of water, so Chen Qiu's lips were pale and chapped.
The sky gradually darkened, and along the way, I met fewer and fewer people, until at the end, only Chen Qiu's lonely figure was left on the distant and unknown road, with only a trace of the remaining sunlight.
, stretching the shadow very, very long...
Chen Qiu didn't know what tomorrow would be like, but during this long walk, Chen Qiu also recognized himself.
He used to think that he was a humble person, but when tragedy happened to him, he realized that deep in his heart, he was infinitely lonely.
Unwilling to accept the facts, let alone fantasize about the future, Chen Qiu was unable to extricate himself between reality and the past. In a subtle way, he also had an illusion: he was still the indomitable and strong man who could defeat the Qiao family, and even more powerful.
Kill King Wu.
"Hoo! Ho!"
Chen Qiu raised his head, stared at the distant front, couldn't help but let out a long breath, and smiled to himself...
And from this moment on, Chen Qiu's path forward officially begins...
