Chapter 34: Farewell
It was already late, and the dark blue night sky over the night city was shining brightly, echoing the lights below, and the singers were tirelessly singing day after day, and there was a bustling and noisy scene everywhere, as if it was just a rumor that there was going to be a war.
Li Qiusheng sat in the study, lit a cigar, looked out the window, and could faintly hear some singing mixed in the night breeze.
"Commander Fu is finally willing to see me, Li?"
Hearing that the door was opened, Li Qiusheng didn't move, just sat on the sofa, the cigar in his hand glowed orange-red brightly, and his words were full of dissatisfaction with Fu Kaiting's previous avoidance of him.
Fu Kaiting was dressed in a plainclothes tunic, but he still couldn't hide the killing aura on his body, he was a serious soldier who had been on the front line, and he was different from those who would only have fun in the dance hall, those people would be a little jealous of Li Qiusheng, but he wouldn't.
sat directly opposite Li Qiusheng: "I came to you today to say goodbye." After all, we know each other. ”
"Farewell?"
Fu Kaiting didn't answer immediately, he looked at the person opposite for a long time before he looked away, and sighed and said, "It's going to be a war."
Yes, there is going to be a war, but the whole Night City is unaware, still immersed in songs and laughter, how many can see the current situation clearly and stand up and contribute?
Li Qiusheng leaned on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, looked leisurely, smiled for a long time, and pointed at Fu Kaiting twice: "Kaiting, two years ago, I saw that you are a bold person. However, you must know that few heroes often end well. ”
When he heard the words "two years ago", Fu Kaiting couldn't help frowning, that incident was still his nightmare.
Sensing Fu Kaiting's strange appearance, Li Qiusheng faked a cough and quickly changed the topic: "You are in such a hurry to find me, won't it just be for this goodbye?"
If it was just like this, Fu Kaiting didn't need to be in such a hurry to find the Li Family Mansion, just a phone call and a notification would be enough, after all, on the surface, the two of them didn't have the slightest contact, and when they came, why should they arouse suspicion?
"This trip, maybe there is no return date, the career of Rong Ma is what I want, and I have no regrets about dying on the battlefield, but ......" He paused, as if the next words made him a little embarrassed, "You really don't know Liu Ning's whereabouts?" ”
Two years ago, at the beginning of spring, it was his first expedition, and in less than half a year, he came back but the beauty had gone, and things were different. Liu Ning is the top singer in Night City, if such a golden phoenix can't bear loneliness and can't endure hardship, and leaves, there is nothing to resent.
It's just that she is Liu Ning, the Liu Ning who has been silently supporting him and believing in him when he was nothing, how could he change when he has only been away for half a year?
"Why, you don't even believe your old friend's words?" Li Qiusheng didn't answer the rhetorical question, put the cigar in his mouth and took a deep breath before continuing, "If she is still in Night City, in two years, you should also find it." You are affectionate, but that woman may not care. ”
Fu Kaiting stiffened his back, sighed for a long time, hung his head slightly, supported his arms on his legs for two days, and leaned forward with his upper body, as if he had lost all his strength: "What else happened in the half a year that I was away?"
Until now, he still refused to believe that after so many years of affection between him and Liu Ning, Liu Ning would say goodbye without saying goodbye.
"The ancients had a saying, only women and villains are difficult to raise, how much do you think you know about that woman?" Li Qiusheng stood up, took a few more steps in the study, stood in front of the windowsill, took a puff of cigar, turned his back to Fu Kaiting, and pointed to the scene outside the window, "How can she endure such a temptation, a dusty woman?" ”
Fu Kaiting gritted his teeth, his fists tightened, and he almost rushed over to punch Li Qiusheng.
He didn't know Liu Ning's past, but Liu Ning was able to leave thousands of degrees for him, leaving the days of fine clothes and food, six years, she had waited for it, how could she give up in just half a year?
But Li Qiusheng is right, Liu Ning is indeed a woman from the dust, if she can't bear loneliness and hardship, it is reasonable.
"Did she really run away with someone?" Fu Kaiting asked again.
Li Qiusheng came back to his senses and looked at Fu Kaiting, his eyes were full of shrewdness: "If you really didn't believe it, you wouldn't have believed me two years ago." ”
Fu Kaiting also stood up, and his expression regained the sense of solemnity when he first came in: "Since I mentioned two years ago, I just took this opportunity to explain everything clearly." ”
Two years ago, the Tang family's murder case caused a sensation, but no one was able to announce the truth to the world, and some people were doing it, and Fu Kaiting was the one who got in the way.
"It is claimed from the outside that the Tang family has been wiped out, but you and I should know that there is still a fish that has slipped through the net."
As soon as the words fell, Li Qiusheng's eyes moved, and there was a bloodthirsty light in his eyes, the fire that night burned all the traces, but he didn't expect to be escaped by a child, in the past two years, he has never stopped looking for Tang Yuanan's whereabouts, but there is no news.
"As far as I know, the kid has left Night City, and if he remembers two years ago, he will one day come back to seek revenge." Fu Kaiting paused, "You're so self-conscious......"
After speaking, Fu Kaiting walked straight out, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Li Qiusheng: "Slow, where did you get the news from?" ”
"Qiu Sheng, since that child can survive, he is destined to have a catastrophe in the future. If he really comes back for revenge, it is also the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and there is always a price to pay for everything. ”
Li Qiusheng secretly scolded in his heart, Fu Kaiting, the turtle grandson, he went to the front line to fight, there was no way out, of course he didn't care about life and death, but he Li Qiusheng was different, he still had a daughter, and everything he had in Night City, how could a hairy boy be ruined?
Chop the grass to get rid of the roots, in order to prevent future troubles, Tang Yuanan must get rid of it!
"What? Are you scared? Li Qiusheng pinched Fu Kaiting's shoulder with one hand, his eyes were vicious, and after snorting coldly, he continued, "I have long doubted, how could such a big fire let a little fly run away, you say, did you deliberately let that little cub go?" ”
Fu Kaiting's back stiffened: "Wake up, you know that I am in the same situation as you, how can you do that kind of thing?" What's more, if I want to harm you, over the years, there have been opportunities. ”
How can I say that Fu Kaiting is also a bit famous and powerful in the army, in the past two years, if it weren't for him, how could things have been concealed so well?
"Mr. Xu? What are you doing here? ”
Uncle Fu's voice suddenly came from outside, and the two people in the study were shocked.
