Chapter 424: Friends
It's late at night!
In the quiet dense forest, Ye Ning sat on the ground with his back against a large bluestone, his head raised and looked at the inky sky, he was stunned, his thoughts drifted somewhere, and the cigarette between his fingers lit up with a little fire.
The sound of slight footsteps sounded, Fang Lan walked out from behind the big bluestone, and sat down next to Ye Ning, her hair was tied up in a ponytail again, her clothes and pants were already dressed as before, her pretty face was unwavering, and she looked very calm, as if what happened to the two of them before had not affected her in the slightest.
Ye Ning turned his head to look at her, the corners of his mouth twitched, and Fang Lan handed over a kettle without waiting for him to speak: "You drink some water." ”
Ye Ning took a sip into the spout, and said in slight surprise: "Where did you get it, hasn't I drunk all the water?" He remembered that when the sequelae in his body first appeared, he drank all the fresh water carried by the two of them in one go.
"I gave up the knives and food, brought an extra pot of water, and I gave a red envelope to the person in charge of the organizer's inspection, and he just turned a blind eye, anyway, the weight of his belongings did not exceed the standard. Fang Lan glanced at him and said lightly: "What, are you dirty?"
Ye Ning smiled bitterly, and took a small sip symbolically, and then returned it to Fang Lan.
"You, are you alright?"
"No big deal. Ye Ning shook his head, and after nearly an hour of venting, the "mountain torrent" in his body was finally calmed down, and he was considered to have passed the danger, and his martial arts realm was also restored to the peak of innate Dacheng because of the complete tearing of the second seal, but the effect of the backlash tossed the five internal organs and six organs enough, and the internal qi was excessively depleted, and he may have to go through a long period of recovery before he could continue the recuperation process.
According to Ye Ning's estimate, it will take at least a month.
"Captain Fang, I..." After hesitating for a while, Ye Ning sighed inexplicably, and the words paused again, Fang Lan cast a smiling gaze, the smile in her eyes seemed to be very natural, but it seemed to be mixed with something incomprehensible, and said with a hint of playfulness: "Do you want to be sorry?"
Ye Ning snorted.
"We're friends, aren't we?... I once read the definition of a friend in a book, and I think it makes a lot of sense, what is a friend? A friend is someone who would rather abandon his bottom line principle when you need help, and will spare no effort to help you, and stand firmly by your side!" Fang Lan winked playfully.
"Yes, we are friends. Ye Ning's eyes drifted away, a little afraid to meet her eyes, after thinking about it, he nodded in agreement, however, the indescribable taste in his heart did not fade much, and the little "red plum" left on the scene after the incident made him understand that Fang Lan gave himself the "first time", you know, the age of the girl's first love is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and Fang Lan is almost twenty-eight, this is not only conservative, but also represents her attitude towards love... If you want to get her person, you must first enter her heart.
Fang Lan was quiet for a moment, and said quietly: "Well, since we are friends, shouldn't friends be honest with each other?"
Ye Ning nodded subconsciously.
"Then let me ask you, you and Mr. Qiu... Is it true?"
Ye Ning was stunned, and then realized that he was unconsciously put into a small cloth bag by a woman.
Actually, I can't hide this for long, but I just took away the "first time" of the woman around me, and I immediately cut into such a sensitive topic, and I will always feel embarrassed.
"Yes, Qiu and I always got our marriage certificate two weeks ago. After a moment of ink, Ye Ning gritted his teeth and said truthfully.
Although he had been prepared in his heart, but after hearing Ye Ning admit it himself, Fang Lan's heart was still empty for a while, holding a pair of slender legs and curling up, and his delicate body trembled slightly.
Ye Ning looked at her from the corner of his eye, and could faintly feel that the aura emanating from her body had dropped a lot at once, and he didn't know how to comfort her, so he picked up the camouflage uniform on the ground and gently draped it over her shoulders.
In fact, Fang Lan's acquired realm, even in the suburbs in the middle of winter, would not be too afraid of the cold, but she seemed to be quite "cared for" by a man, her body shrank into her clothes, and said with a light smile: "Thank you." Then he said with a hint of ridicule: "You and Mr. Qiu are really good at acting, more than a month ago, Mr. Qiu found a foreigner assistant, saying that he was a senior when he studied abroad, and that foreigner sent flowers to Mr. Qiu every day, and went to and from work in pairs, everyone thought that Mr. Qiu and that foreigner were in love, you are even more amazing, Liu Qing said, your relationship with Princess Ouyang has spread all over the circle, hey..."
Ye Ning looked helpless, Qiu Ruoyu and the fake foreigner Mike were indeed acting, but the purpose of acting was to test him, and he and Ouyang Xiaqing were not acting at all, it could only be said that it was a mistake.
"I misunderstood, there is a complicated relationship between me and Mr. Qiu. ”
"How complicated are you talking about?" Fang Lan gave him a blank look, his eyes clearly filled with distrust.
Ye Ning rubbed his temples, he knew in his heart that if he didn't explain something, Fang Lan would not give up, or rather, he would not be reconciled, he hesitated for a while, and finally he decided to get out truthfully, tonight's experience has sublimated the trust between each other qualitatively, between real friends, it should not be deceived by lies.
"Okay, I'll satisfy your gossip for a while. After sorting out his thoughts, Ye Ning lit a cigarette again, and in Fang Lan's focused gaze, from his first encounter with Qiu Ruoyu after returning to China, to the process of the two receiving their marriage certificates, he told it in more detail.
For more than half an hour, Fang Lan always listened quietly, and after Ye Ning finished speaking, there was a sense of intoxication and dreaminess on his face, and in his bright eyes, there was a little confusion, a little yearning, a little sigh, and a little envy that could not be concealed.
"In Master Jin's "The Condor Heroes", Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu will meet again in sixteen years... Unexpectedly, it was eighteen years between you and Mr. Qiu..."It took a long time for Fang Lan to recover from his aftertaste, and whispered: "Ask what the world is like, and teach life and death to make a promise." ”
This was the first time Ye Ning had seen Fang Lan's "literary young woman", and he always felt weird, so he shook his head with a smile: "Captain Fang, I haven't seen you so sentimental before." ”
Fang Lan silently raised her eyes and saw that in this dark environment, her eyes were extremely bright, staring at Ye Ning for a long time, and suddenly said, "Ye Ning, then, what about Ouyang Xiaqing?"
This "divine turn" question made Ye Ning's smile stiffen instantly, and Fang Lan seemed to think of something after seeing Ye Ning's expression change, his mouth opened into an "O" shape, and he said something that made Ye Ning's jaw drop: "You, you are not a double wife, right?" ”
