Chapter 345
This family banquet was the first family banquet of the Ouyang family since the outbreak of the apocalypse, and it lasted until ten o'clock in the evening. When everyone left, only Lang Lang and the old housekeeper sent them out as representatives, while Ouyang Zhi just sat on the sofa and responded to everyone's farewell.
"They don't know about the rock yet." After coming back, he assisted the old housekeeper for a day, and now there is no one else, Lang Lang doesn't care about his image, he casually ripped off the collar button of his shirt, and reclined crookedly on the sofa.
As early as the time to clean up the table, the old butler signaled to his subordinates not to approach the hall without a summons. So at this moment, the old housekeeper also sat on the sofa after sending people back, but although he was also tired for a day, the demeanor of the seat now was completely in accordance with the textbook.
"Yanyan, what's wrong now?" The old butler's tone was a little hesitant, from Ouyang Zhi and Lang Lang's expressions, he guessed that it shouldn't be very good, or rather, very bad?
Ouyang Zhi also leaned back in the chair, he rubbed his eyes, and motioned for Lang Lang to explain to the old housekeeper.
"How so?" After listening to Lang Lang's explanation, the old butler couldn't maintain his standard demeanor anymore, and his back instantly stiffened. In the years when Chen Yan was detained, except for Ouyang Zhi, the old housekeeper who got along with Chen Yan the most. He is two years older than Ouyang Liren, and he and Ouyang Liren are real buddies who grew up since childhood. When Ouyang Liren fell in love with Chen Weiwei, he dissuaded him, but after seeing his sincerity, he also helped him privately. That's because he knows that Ouyang Liren is a very responsible person, he can love Chen Yan deeply, but he won't forget his identity and responsibility.
But he didn't expect that the Jiang family would do so desperately at the beginning, so that it completely angered Ouyang Liren, and after Chen Wei's accident, Ouyang Liren was also completely cold-hearted, and finally abandoned everything as a monk.
However, Ouyang Liren didn't hide anything from him. From the time he fell in love with Chen Weiwei, to the fact that he wanted to abandon his wife and children for Chen Weiwei, and even including Chen Yan's birth, the old housekeeper knew it. So he was the only one other than Ouyang Liren who knew that Chen Yan was not Ouyang Zhi's sister.
When Ouyang Zhi brought Chen Yan back, he was surprised. After all, since Ouyang Liren became a monk, his little young master Ouyang Zhi has a very clear attitude towards this father, so it is impossible for him to take this "half-sister" sister back to take care of him. Although in the first few months, Ouyang Zhi did love Chen Yan very much, even the people around him.
But the old butler still didn't tell the truth, he chose to watch. Sure enough, five months later, Ouyang Zhi finally tore off his disguise and unabashedly expressed his resentment towards Chen Yan.
At that time, the old housekeeper couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. He thought that if Chen Yan was really Ouyang Liren's daughter, it didn't matter if he didn't know her before, after Ouyang Zhi brought her back, he would protect her a little. It's a pity that Chen Yan is not. She didn't know which one had bullied Chen's only man. Chen is the only one who is dead, and the old housekeeper is not without resentment towards this woman who ruined the original trajectory of Ouyang Liren's life. So he turned a blind eye to what happened to Chen Yan. Anyway, it's not really a wheel chaos, since it can make the young master angry, it's just a woman.
However, he found that Ouyang Zhi's heart was gradually disturbed. In addition, in the first two years, Ouyang Zhi treated Chen Yan very cruelly! The old butler is not an iron-hearted man. He knew that Ouyang Liren really regarded Chen Yan as his daughter, and more importantly, Ouyang Liren loved Chen Weiwei with his life, and Chen Yan was the continuation of Chen's only life. When he finally got rid of his demons and wanted to help Chen Yan, he knew that Ouyang Zhi had embarked on his father's trajectory again. He was hesitating whether to tell Ouyang Zhi the truth.
However, Ouyang Zhi suppressed it for twenty years. He loves Chen Yan, but Chen Yan is an outlet for the anger he has forcibly suppressed in the past 20 years. Even if Chen Yan is not Ouyang Liren's daughter, will Ouyang Zhi let her go? Her mother is still the only one in Chen. Between the little young master who grew up watching him grow up and the girl who just caused his guilt, the old housekeeper still chose Ouyang Zhi. For Chen Yan, he could only apologize in his heart, and then try to give Chen Yan a little help within the weak range of his control, although he knew that it was not what Chen Yan wanted, and it was just a drop in the bucket.
After Chen Yan came back from rebirth, although he confessed that night, there was no old housekeeper. But afterwards, the old butler still knew everything. He felt like he was doing something wrong. His connivance with Ouyang Zhi thought that it helped him, but who knew that it made Ouyang Zhi go deeper into his own way. The old housekeeper could only vaguely and constantly persuade Ouyang Zhi to see Ouyang Liren. Only the truth told from Ouyang Li's mouth can make Ouyang Zhi get rid of his demons and go astray. And he also met Ouyang Liren in advance when Ouyang Zhi finally made up his mind to meet Ouyang Liren.
Since Ouyang Liren left the house, he has never left the cave where he practiced, nor has he seen anyone from the Ouyang family, including the old housekeeper. And the old housekeeper also stood in front of the cave for three days and three nights, without eating, drinking, or sleeping, before he met Ouyang Liren. At first, Ouyang Liren didn't want to tell Chen Yan's life experience, but after hearing about the entanglement and grievances between Chen Yan and Ouyang Zhi in their previous lives, he finally changed his mind. Therefore, when Ouyang Zhi came, Ouyang Liren saw this son without any stopping, and clearly told the truth of the year.
He felt sorry for Chen Yan, but Ouyang Zhi was also his son, so he concealed a lot of things that the Jiang family did back then, and just said those things that he didn't think would smear the image of his mother and the image of his foreign family in Ouyang Zhi's heart, and he just passed it over.
After Ouyang left, the old butler walked out of the cave, and when Ouyang Liren was dying, he swore a poisonous oath with blood, and after that, he would treat Chen Yan well. Therefore, after that, the old housekeeper really took this girl in his heart, as a master, and as a daughter.
Now hearing that Chen Yan is in such a miserable state, the old housekeeper's most direct reaction for the first time is not that Chen Yan will do anything unfavorable to Ouyang Zhi like this, and what kind of catastrophe will be brought to the Ouyang family, but that he is heartbroken, regretful, and anxious.
The old housekeeper's reaction also made Ouyang Zhi and Lang Lang puzzled. When he didn't return to Doomsday City, after Lang Lang and the others were warned by Ouyang Zhi, they had already let go of the idea of being unfavorable to Chen Yan, but there was another person who was as sincere to Ouyang Zhi as they were. That's the old butler. So they have been worried in their hearts, how to convince the old butler? They never wanted to hide it from the old butler. I don't want to, and I can't.
And the old housekeeper's current attitude made them let go of their worries, and at the same time they had doubts. But no matter what, at least now they can breathe a sigh of relief. Moreover, with the support and help of the old butler, they still have a great deal of certainty that they will hide from the people of Doom City, and they can delay it for a longer time.
"Has Qin Qin started researching now? Let's go over and see. For the first time, the old housekeeper let go of his identity as a housekeeper, but said to Ouyang Zhi as an elder.
"Let's go."
They also planned to go to Qin Qin after sending everyone away. Although Qin Qin said that he wanted to rest during the day, they all knew that Qin Qin was not that kind of person. He must have started to study Chen Yan's affairs after returning to his room, just like Lang Lang had not rested all along, but immediately began to understand the situation in Doomsday City and made a decision quickly.
Qin Qin was indeed in his room at the moment. His room was the largest except for Ouyang Zhi's. And he also opened up both study rooms. When Ouyang Zhi opened the door and entered, he saw Qin Qin sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hair messy and his eyes red, and there were open books or materials everywhere in the area of twenty square meters next to him. Even the five computers on the table are open at the same time, and they are also densely packed with text or data.
When they came in, Qin Qin raised his head and looked at them. He'd been in his room all day. At this moment, both eyes were bloodshot, and his face was as white as a vampire.
Qin Qin rarely had such a raunchy time. In my impression, even in the vast Gobi, when he was a mercenary and a mercenary, he was also a gold-rimmed glasses, slow and polite. And now, it's not an exaggeration to say that he's a madman. And in fact, Qin Qin really felt that he was going crazy.
"I don't have a clue and I don't know for sure." This is the first time Qin Qin has denied himself.
Ouyang Zhi paused for a moment, just a pause, so short that no one noticed it, and then simply walked over and sat down cross-legged like Qin Qin.
"Don't push yourself too hard." This is his brother who is now denying himself because of his own woman.
"It's only been a day, so I'm so unconfident!" Lang Lang also sat down.
The old butler walked to the table, and instead of looking at the food that had cooled, he picked up a glass of water and walked over. These children were all grown up by him.
Several people sat down, looked at the information on the ground under Qin Qin's guidance, and marked the things that Qin Qin needed. The whole room was quiet with a hint of sadness. Whatever the reason, they are all working hard for a woman at the moment.
And that woman, Chen Yan, who had been asleep for a day, was rolling and moaning on that familiar bed at the moment.
Chen Yan kept running, she wanted to stop, she felt her heart gushing out, and the fishy sweetness in her throat kept rolling. But she couldn't. It's not because there's a demon chasing after her, it's that she can't control her body. In her mind, her consciousness kept shouting, stop, stop. But her feet were uncontrollable, and even though she was exhausted, she was still running tirelessly and quickly.
Chen Yan was still giving orders over and over again, her intuition didn't stop, once she gave up her consciousness and let her feet run like this, she would never stop. She was not afraid that she would die of exhaustion and pain, but she felt that the most painful person for such a never-ending run for herself was not herself, but someone who was watching her from nowhere.
Very tired, very weak consciousness, the instructions issued are getting slower and slower, more and more strenuous, and there is a voice on the side that keeps singing the opposite tune, give up, give up, sink, sink. Every time his command was so weak that he couldn't hear it, Chen Yan's heart felt as if it had been electrocuted, and it had instant strength.
In such a contest again and again, Chen Yan's body was rolling, the sheets and pillows were already soaked with sweat, and finally, Chen Yan gradually fell asleep in a burst of unconscious convulsions. But after the convulsions of her body were over, her fingers twitched slightly.
At this moment, the golden pupils that had been entrenched under the bed suddenly opened the eyes that had been closed, and the palpitating all-golden pupils glowed like gold that had seen the light of day. It had been sleeping for a day, and even Chen Yan's painful moaning just now didn't disturb it. However, just now, it suddenly felt the virtual breath, which was not very strong, but it was indeed the most real breath of the other party that it felt after separating from the virtual, and it was very close!
Jin Tong quickly climbed onto the bed and stared at Chen Yan tightly. Gone, gone! The virtual aura that I just felt is gone! However, Jin Tong knew that it was true, it was true just now.
The golden pupil turned its head sideways, its IQ was only three or four years old, and its IQ dropped a lot after the battle with Alice was so badly damaged that its body was forcibly reduced. It remembers the appearance of the virtual, so it used to be in the fantasy desert, and the virtual often changes its image, especially the virtual often transforms into the appearance of the prey it swallowed a moment ago, but the only time the virtual transforms into a human form is the first time it sees the virtual and wants to swallow it as a delicious meal. However, at that time, the virtual was just a 6 or 7-year-old child. Moreover, the virtual has also said that it cannot transform into an adult.
So at this moment, Jin Tong was very puzzled, this one on the bed was a person, it was a woman, it knew. But why does it feel virtual in her? Jin Tong couldn't understand it, and wanted to ask, for such a long time, all the questions it didn't understand were asked to Ouyang Zhi. Ouyang Zhi doesn't know snake language, and Jin Tong can't speak human language, but this person and snake have an incomparable tacit understanding in the short few months of getting along.
Every doubt of the golden pupil, Ouyang Zhi can answer it. Although, it doesn't really have many doubts, because it just wants to find the virtual. However, it didn't see Ouyang Zhi now, and it didn't have the extra energy to think about going to Ouyang Zhi. It just looked at Chen Yan like this, and then approached little by little, until, its fangs were attached to Chen Yan's neck and carotid artery! (To be continued.) )
