Chapter 370: A Helpless Morning
Early in the morning –
In fact, it was not yet early in the morning, because the sky was not yet fully bright, and the huge courtyard was as silent as late at night.
Ouyang Yaoqin sat in the aisle between the front yard and the back yard, stunned.
Her injuries hadn't healed yet, and she really needed more rest, but she hadn't closed her eyes all night last night.
But people who are too preoccupied usually have a hard time sleeping, don't they?
Ouyang Yaoqin's thoughts seemed to have drifted far, far away at this moment, and she didn't even notice that someone was approaching behind her-
"It's snowing. Liu Yanbo stopped, his voice was a little tired, and he looked very lazy.
Snowing?
Yes.
It's been going on for a while.
Ouyang Yaoqin looked at the snowflakes flying in the sky, and the thoughts that had drifted away were pulled back, but the expression that was originally crazy because of the drifting thoughts revealed a touch of sadness that seemed to have penetrated into the bone marrow at this time, and murmured softly: "Do you know? My sister likes to watch snow very much. ”
Ouyang Zhihua likes to see snow?
Liu Yanbo really doesn't know this, in fact, the time he has spent with Ouyang Zhihua is very short, what she likes and doesn't like, he doesn't know much, and now he thinks about it-
This is a regret and a debt, but it will never have a chance to make up for it.
Liu Yanbo pulled his collar and fell silent.
"Finished talking?" Ouyang Yaoqin got up and said, "I'll send you back." ”
"Good. Liu Yanbo nodded.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and even in the capital, a city that was already overpopulated, it was lonely and cold on such a cold morning.
Ouyang Yaoqin drove Liu Yanbo around several streets before she found a shop selling breakfast at the mouth of an alley-
The bean juice is very mellow, and the fritters are fried just right.
The atmosphere was a little subtle, or rather awkward.
Liu Yanbo was not good at words, but Ouyang Yaoqin seemed to be preoccupied, so most of the time, they were silent.
Ouyang Yaoqin actually had a lot of things to ask Liu Yanbo in her heart, but she couldn't find a suitable entry point, which made her feel a little irritable in her heart, making her already bad appetite even worse recently, she only drank a sip of bean juice, and didn't touch any of the breakfasts on the table again.
Liu Yanbo saw it in his eyes, and his heart was helpless, he knew why Ouyang Yaoqin was so worried at this time, but he couldn't do anything about it, and he couldn't say anything.
The two of them ended the tasteless breakfast hastily, and when they returned to the car, the atmosphere was not eased by the warmth in the car, but there was silence, only silence.
After what seemed like a century, the car finally stopped slowly at the door of the Du family's compound, but Liu Yanbo didn't get out of the car, he was waiting, waiting for Ouyang Yaoqin to say a word to him, even if it was the most insignificant "goodbye" at this time.
Ouyang Yaoqin didn't speak, she just lit a cigarette silently alone, then leaned her head on the car seat and closed her eyes.
After smoking a cigarette, the car was already full of smoke, and just when Liu Yanbo thought that this wait would be fruitless, Ouyang Yaoqin's voice was deliberately indifferent in order to hide her emotions: "Liu Yanbo, if I ask you and ask you now as Ouyang Zhihua's younger sister, what will you tell me about what happened in Saudi Arabia back then?"
Here it comes.
What should have come is still coming.
Liu Yanbo also lit a cigarette, and after being silent for half a cigarette, he spoke: "The only thing I can tell you is that the matter of the year was already over in that year, so you can be relieved and live your own life happily as your sister expects." ”
"Really?" asked Ouyang Yaoqin.
Are you sure?
Liu Yanbo couldn't help but ask himself in his heart.
In that attack, a lot of people died, big people, small people, famous and unknown, damned and undeserved......
Corpses were strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed like rivers.
And in that attack, the only person who was at fault but didn't die was him—
Liu Yanbo.
It was because he didn't help at the first time that Ouyang Zhihua died in the end.
Now that I think about it, Liu Yanbo's reason for not helping at that time is ridiculous and unforgivable, at least now he still can't forgive himself every time he thinks about it.
But can he tell Ouyang Yaoqin?
He couldn't, and he didn't dare.
He was not afraid to bear Ouyang Yaoqin's anger, he was only afraid that this would become a knot in her heart that she would never be able to let go.
So—
Liu Yanbo did not hesitate this time, and said very seriously: "Really." ”
Hearing this, Ouyang Yaoqin waved her hand gently, brushed away the smoke, and looked at Liu Yanbo.
Liu Yanbo also looked at Ouyang Yaoqin, he looked directly at her gaze, and did not dodge-
He couldn't fool himself, but he hoped he could fool her.
After about a minute, or two minutes later, Ouyang Yaoqin retracted her gaze and said lightly: "It's time for you to get out of the car, someone is waiting for you." ”
"Hmm. Liu Yanbo nodded, and then took out a piece of paper from his pocket. "This prescription will help you with your internal injuries. ”
"Thank you. ”
Ouyang Yaoqin accepted the prescription very happily, neither shirking nor being surprised-
This seemingly ordinary man hides a lot of secrets that are not known to others, and it is not surprising that he has been working all night long.
Liu Yanbo smiled, pushed the door and got out of the car.
Seeing that Liu Yanbo was about to close the car door, Ouyang Yaoqin suddenly asked again: "Liu Yanbo, is the token of our Vermilion Bird Group here with you?"
"Yes. Liu Yanbo said frankly: "But I won't give it to you." ”
"Why?" Ouyang Yaoqin was not angry at Liu Yanbo's straightforward answer, because she could probably guess the reason. "Is it because of my sister's expectations?"
"Yes. Liu Yanbo nodded and said: "The road you are taking now, although it is a road full of glory, but your sister has never wanted you to set foot on this road, but you are now the acting leader of the Vermilion Bird Group, if I hand over the token to you again, it will naturally make you become the official team leader, and with your Jiuli rules, once you become the official leader of the Suzaku Group, at that time, you will not even have room to choose to quit, so——"
Liu Yanbo paused slightly, and then said: "I won't force you to take the path your sister wants you to take, but I won't be the one who cuts off your retreat." ”
"In this case, then you, as a former member of our Suzaku Group, should know very well that whoever the previous team leader handed over the token to is the next team leader. Ouyang Yaoqin said indifferently: "So, are you ready to be our new team leader?"
"Not ready. Liu Yanbo sighed lightly: "Because I never thought of being the leader of this team, but if one day, if it is necessary, I will be the leader of this team." ”
"Or is it for my sister?" asked Ouyang Yaoqin again.
"Yes. ”
After speaking, Liu Yanbo closed the car door and took the initiative to end this helpless morning.
- Everyone should have the right to choose, but sometimes, you can't choose just for yourself.
For whom?
I do not know.
But there will come a time when you will meet someone who makes you choose for it regardless of everything.
