Chapter 7: Irretrievable
"Gu Lian?" Bai Hengyuan looked at her face, his heart tightened for no reason, he reached out and held her hand lightly, trying to comfort her, but he was reflexively thrown away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 He was stunned for a moment, his hand froze in the air, but Gu Lian didn't even notice this, she just trembled, and retreated like a small animal guarding all the creatures in the jungle, with a clear fear in her dark eyes.
Again......
Merchandise, goods, incidental items.
She, the woman, Gu Lian.
Just follow them...... As long as she doesn't leave them for a day, she can't get autonomy for a day. Through the early days and nights of the fearful things, just as she gradually relaxed her guard, she inadvertently rushed out of the oblique thorn, and pierced deep into her heart when she was defenseless, as if life had given her a slap and laughed at her appeasement.
Having an ability means strength, she kept telling herself, and then bit every possible opportunity to fight and fight.
Whether it was a coincidence or a coincidence, she finally got this strength. But she couldn't show her strength when the oath was still in the hands of others, and if that was the case, she couldn't see the slightest possibility that the other party would let her go. She was no longer a girl who didn't know anything when she first arrived, and her experience at the expedition base had clearly taught her how precious an Adept was, and what reason was there for Chen Zhi to hold up their noble hand for a free Adept?
But while she was dormant, she was never mentally ready to leave.
On the one hand, it was because only people who stood on a high place could have access to high-level information, and even if someone specialized in crossing the matter, it would not be easy for an ordinary paranormal to access, but on the other hand, she had to admit...... She's a little too dependent on them.
Maybe it's because of the nestling mentality.,It's a little difficult to give up on the people I knew at the beginning of the crossing;Maybe it's out of greed.,Want to borrow the east wind to ask for more.,Maybe it's out of inner weakness.,No matter how nice it sounds like on the lips.,There's always a part of the heart saying.,Forget it.,Give up.,It's impossible.。
- Perhaps, no matter how much she complains, she is grateful to them.
Without them, she would have starved to death on the road, and without them, she would not have been able to stand at the top of the world, let alone mobilize her connections and command her people to gain supernatural abilities.
Because she has them behind her, so Su Jingming will be interested in her, so Yan Yuzhen will stick to her, so Liu Liu will look at her differently, so Zhou Zhao will help, so Ah Rui will be obedient, so Luo sacrifice They will be moved by her, so they will listen to her orders - everything has such a clear line behind it.
She has tried, but all her efforts have stood on the platform they provided, and strictly speaking, they have become much more tolerant and preferential to her than most people in this world.
She had also been frightened in the middle of the night, and then looked at the endless sandy ground with moonlight like water, and wondered all night whether she should just accept her fate. Succumb to reality. Values that cater to this world. When a weaker of the weak, not so weak.
However, just today, Liu Zijing's words suddenly woke her up from the chaos with a slap.
She felt like she had never been so sober.
I've never been so lonely.
"If most people here think so, then I should think so too. This is never a solution to the problem, it is just an excuse. There's nothing wrong with choosing a path that is less resistant and easier to take, yet she's not destined to share the views of most people here.
She will never forget that she was born in a peaceful country, has a warm family, and is surrounded by classmates and friends who are hip-hopping and studying hard together.
Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, she has been cast into the current Gu Lian by the iron-like past, how can she compromise with this ridiculous world.
Even in the eyes of millions of people, this is a normal world, but in her eyes, it is ridiculous, weird, and abnormal. A man-eating vortex to escape from no matter what.
After paying off the debt, let's go. Gu Lian thought. Can't stay any longer.
She couldn't stay any longer.
***
I don't know what I thought, the girl's face gradually became calmer, and the trembling disappeared. She seemed to realize that she had spilled the teacup, and she looked down and wiped it with a handkerchief, and said, "I'm sorry, I accidentally hit the teacup." The corners of her lips curled, "You go on." ”
As if nothing had happened. Looking at her like this, all the worries in her chest froze, and Bai Hengyuan only felt suffocating discomfort, and when this discomfort also receded like a tide, only endless emptiness remained.
Again.
He's been working hard.
But why did she shake off his hand again and again?
Since coming out of the expedition base, Gu Lian's spirit has not been very good. Bai Hengyuan, who sensitively noticed this, chose to be silent, and just quietly hugged her to sleep at night when he was not on duty. He thought that quiet processing and quiet consideration were right, and he was secretly happy at the sleeping face she showed in his arms, but one night he found that the girl had never really slept.
He was the only one who slept sweetly, she just pretended to be asleep, she only pretended to be asleep, and then while he was asleep, she spent many nights alone with her eyes open.
Bai Hengyuan was angry.
Was she proud to have deceived him? Was she happy? Did she think he was a fool and that all his consideration was just a superfluous move? Or was it ......
She didn't care about any of this.
I don't care if he's worried or angry, I don't care if his emotions rise and fall because of her, even in his arms, she keeps looking into the distance, looking outside, looking at places he doesn't see—
It scared him.
Would it be nice to make a sound? Childishly grabbed her by the shoulders and poured out all his anger? But he didn't even have the courage to raise his hand, let alone speak. It was as if once questioned, what he said would really land and become an unchangeable reality.
So he became more and more silent. If the silence at the beginning was still for her sake, then later, it has almost become his childish and boring obsession. If he doesn't speak, will she look back at him? If he is extremely gentle with her, will she notice him? If he deliberately doesn't ask, will she be impatient to seek out his bitterness and pour out bitter water to talk to him......
It was as if he had engraved all his words in this silence, and the more he did not speak, the more she fell into her own world, and the more she was like this, the more stubbornly he persisted in silence.
Before I knew it, I missed the opportunity to speak. No matter when you say it again, ask again, or act again, it always feels like the time is not right. And until this moment, as if he heard the sound of glass shattering in his ears, Bai Hengyuan clearly felt that something had become irreparable.
Before he could act, she had already made a decision on her own. (To be continued.) )
