Chapter 143: For What Reason, Life and Death Depend on Each Other
The man was gone, but I stared at the doorway but I didn't retract my gaze for a long time, and my heart was churning, almost bursting out of my chest.
Phyllis? Ciel, even if it is revenge, I will not use your despicable and insidious means, that is an insult to my character. Rest assured, I will let you receive the punishment you deserve after you have been fully prepared.
The corners of his lips suddenly raised a coldness, please do your best to take it, I will not be soft.
At this time, the mobile phone rang suddenly with an inexplicable sense of urgency.
I picked it up, and a panicked voice came from the other side of the phone, "Sister Qingyu, do you have any news of Dawn?" He was supposed to go to the studio early this morning, but I called him and the phone was turned off, and no one answered the phone at home, so I ......"
"Wait a minute," I interrupted, sorting out my thoughts and identifying it as Huo Cen Ye's assistant Xiao Yu, "You mean, Huo Cen Ye is missing?" β
"Yes, I've searched everywhere and haven't heard from him, I'm really worried......" I was about to cry when I heard her voice.
I thought, "Do you know why he might be missing?" Or, did he react unusually before this? β
"I, I can't think of it...... Dawn has always been a very silent person, he keeps everything in his heart, and I really can't think of what reason he would disappear......"
"Okay, don't panic," I tried to reassure myself: "For now, block the news from the outside world, don't leak his disappearance to the media, I'll go and help you find it now." β
"Well, Sister Qingyu, I see......" she choked down her throat.
"Okay, stay in touch at all times."
Putting down the phone, I realized that the task of finding this young master Huo was indeed difficult, with my understanding of him only scratching the surface, I didn't even have the slightest idea of his personal habits, let alone exploring his mind.
Xiao Yu must have looked for the places he may frequent. It's useless to ask again, so now, you can only carpet search street by street.
*
A few hours passed, and I counted the number of streets in the city of London almost accurately, but I still couldn't see the shadow of Huo Czen, and Xiao Yu called every ten minutes. She rummaged through the bar clubhouse, and it was the same. It's already dark, and Rao is usually not used to looking at him, and I can't help but worry at this moment.
With Huo Czen's temper, it is difficult to guarantee what kind of thing will happen if he is willful for a while.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Yu's call came again, "How is Sister Qingyu?" β
"Can't find it." I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in frustration, "I've already searched the last neighborhood in the city of London, and the next thing I can do is to go to the suburbs." β
"What to do, what to do. It's almost 12 o'clock and I'm really worried that something will happen to Dawn," her voice was crying, "I'm scared of him, he's ......"
At this point, I don't know how to comfort me, and to be honest, I have no less foreboding in my heart than she does," anyway. Let's go to the outskirts of the city...... By the way, did you inform his father? President Sheng? β
"I wanted to try to keep it quiet, after all, Dawn has not been on good terms with his father, and all I said to the outside world is that Dawn is suddenly uncomfortable today......"
"No," I said decisively, "I can't take care of anything else at this time, Mr. Sheng is much more than our hands and eyes." He's more able to find Hotzen Ye faster without hiding all the media, so you should notify him right now and have him send someone to find him. β
"Okay, I'll go."
Dropping down my already hot phone, I sighed. Turn around and head towards the outskirts of the city.
Huo Czen night, Huo Czen night, where can you go with your temperament?
"Didn't I make it clear? Or do you simply not understand the meaning of the word dark night? What is this you gave me? Dawn? β
"Is it true that the literal meaning of the word night alone should be assumed that the night is cold and dark? Wouldn't it be too superficial? β
"I just need to be dark and dark, and I don't need you to make any extensions on that."
β¦β¦
My mind suddenly flashed back to a sentence from a long time ago, Hotzen Night--Dark Night.
I suddenly understood something, and slammed the throttle towards my destination.
*
"What does it feel?"
"Loneliness."
"What does it feel like to be here all night long, alone?"
"It should be loneliness, fear, and a hint of despair......"
The car is parked in an old-fashioned residential area far from the bustling city, and the high-rise buildings have a vague sense of familiarity, which is the place where Hotzen once took me to find inspiration for the dark night.
I don't know why I thought of coming here, maybe it was just an impromptu idea of Huo Czen at that time, in order to experience the pure darkness of the night, not to mention that there are so many buildings around, and each one is almost identical, he may not go to the one he went to at that time.
It's just that there is a lingering premonition, perhaps, only here, can he interpret the dark night in his heart, the night of loneliness, fear, and despair.
I stepped out of the car, and it was still dark, past midnight, with few lights and a palpable shade chill.
When I found the building from memory, I took a deep breath and walked in.
Climbing up the dark staircase to the rooftop of the top floor, there were no stars and no moon, and it was dark and lonely as if it were a lonely plain, but fortunately there were some lights from afar, and my eyes tried their best to adapt to the current darkness, and hurriedly looked around.
However, the first thing that came to my eyes was a faint smell of alcohol.
I was stunned, my instinct was him, and I tentatively walked into the shadows in the corner of the top floor.
As we got closer, the silhouette of the inky black was finally revealed, and a man was sitting on the concrete floor, his long legs half-bent, and his arm propped up on his knees carrying a wine bottle, his head hanging down, his face buried deep in the shadows.
If it weren't for the innate cold arrogance that isolated him from his whole person, I would never have believed that the decadent and dejected person in front of me would be the star-studded superstar Dawn.
"You're here, do you know that everyone is worried about you?" Standing half a step away from him, I whispered.
He didn't look up, his voice seemed weak, "Get out of ......"
Even at this time, the typical Huo-style style of language is still unmistakable, but I can clearly see how deep the loneliness and sadness of his figure buried deep in the dark night is.
I was not in a hurry to step forward, I still stood not far from him, and said slowly: "You are sad......"
This time he didn't respond directly, he hung his head very low, and it looked as if he was asleep.
But I knew he must be awake, so I sighed softly, and my voice couldn't help but carry some comfort, "No matter what happens, it should be enough to disappear for a day, you think about the people who have been worrying about your unexplained disappearance all day-"
The words "I said, let you get out of ......" deepened a little harder, but he still didn't look up, and his whole person exuded a cold and cold aura.
His patience was extremely poor, and my patience was not very good, so I approached, bent down and took his arm, "Willful enough, come back with me......"
Unexpectedly, my not too heavy grip actually made his arm tremble suddenly, and I immediately reacted and quickly took it off, "Are you injured?" β
At the same time, Huo Czenye finally lifted his noble face, and his rewarding gaze fell on me, but the moment it touched my face, it was cold and a little dazed, and it seemed that he could not react for a moment.
It turned out that he didn't know it was me.
In the shallow light, I could see the marks on his face, the eyebrows, the eyes, the corners of his mouth, and his jaw...... Almost nothing is intact.
Needless to say, the way Young Master Huo vented his emotions was nothing more than drinking and fighting.
I shook my head, my hands moving softly, "I'll take you to heal first." β
However, as soon as the fingertips touched his shoulder, he opened it with one hand, and at the same time, the wine bottle in his hand was also taken out of his hand and fell to one side of the ground, shattering in an instant.
"Don't touch me, get out of here!" The roar was compounded by the crisp cracking of the glass bottle, and his face was distorted, like a raging lion.
Facing the anger in his eyes, my anger was also instantly ignited, "Huo Czen, I tell you, willfulness must also have a limit, don't think that the whole world should cry with you when you are sad!" Do you think that you are standing on a high place in the limelight, with a father who dotes on you and a group of fans who hold you, and the whole world should revolve around you, which is really childish and ridiculous, and self-righteousness! β
For a moment, the flame in his eyes instantly fell to the freezing point, and it looked even more terrifying than before, but I was not afraid to meet his frozen and burning gaze, and perhaps, I was also looking for a breakthrough to release the complex chaos that had been suppressed in my heart for a long time these days.
"Don't mention him to meβ" He tightened the corners of his lips and squeezed out these words, with an incomprehensible hatred, I was surprised, did the "he" in Huo Czen's mouth refer to his father Sheng Huaxuan?
No wonder Xiao Yu said that Huo Cen Ye has not had a very good relationship with his father, and I even vaguely feel that Huo Cen Ye's abnormality today should be inexplicably related to his father.
When he was distracted, Huo Cen Ye had already stumbled to his feet by holding on to the low railing beside him, and instead of looking at me, he limped towards the only exit from the rooftop, with nothing to cling to, and his drunkenness and injuries made him staggered several times.
Knowing that I would be ruthlessly rejected again, I just watched from the sidelines, not moving.
A minute passed, and he stumbled four paces away.
I can't help but sigh, I am really lucky to meet such an employer who causes trouble and doesn't know what to do.
However, when he met an employee like me, who could be avoided from afar but preferred to be stubbornly nosy, he Huo Czen was really lucky.
However, the reason why I can stay here is not to go away, and even to get involved in other people's affairs in a very different way from my usual temperament, I think I understood the reason a long time ago.
Even when you are sad, you should stubbornly cut off all visits from others.
Huo Czen, your determination is so similar to mine. (To be continued......)
PS: I wish you all a happy new year and all kinds of smooth ^_^~
