Chapter 7: Confession
Looking at Ouyang Zhi, who fell into deep thought after hanging up the phone, Qin Qin and the four of them, you look at me, I look at you, and they all expect the other party to break this weird atmosphere. In the end, it was Ouyang Fu who opened his mouth, "Well, that, how is Yanyan?" As soon as the words came out, the three of them fell down, isn't this a pot that can't be opened, and "Yanyan" is so intimate. They were expecting Ouyang Fu to be able to divert Ouyang Zhi's emotions.
Sure enough, it was even colder. "You care about her?" Ouyang Zhi leaned back in the chair and loosened his tie. The casual tone makes people think of the cheetah roaming the grassland, not knowing when to strike the fatal blow. "If you continue like this, Yan Yan will play you to death sooner or later." Ouyang Fu didn't seem to feel the slightest danger, and he still went deep into this topic. Hearing this, Ouyang Zhi stopped talking. Ouyang Fu was still about to say something, but Qin Qin hurriedly pulled him, "You still can't believe in my medical skills, just Chen Yan's little thing is still difficult for me." What the are you doing? Let Ouyang Fu continue to speak, the name of "tyrant" is not a joke. They didn't want to accompany this stunned young man to provoke Ouyang Zhi. Besides, he only went to see Chen Yan at noon today, and at most he had to cultivate for 10 days and half a month, and he couldn't die.
Seeing that Ouyang Fu was pulled by Qin Qin, Ouyang Zhi stopped continuing the topic. If someone else interfered in his affairs with Chen Yan like this, he would have had a seizure a long time ago. That is, for the four of them, he will be a little more tolerant, especially Ouyang Fu. However, it is not without a bottom line. Chen Yan is the deepest and heaviest bottom line. "Let's move on to the next project." In a word, gently ended this unpleasant topic. After 3 days of recuperation, Chen Yan's injuries were healed. It's not that Qin Qin didn't expect it, but in his previous life, he had indeed cultivated for half a month. But now with the help of space, this injury is really nothing, if your physique is better, you won't even need 3 days.
Although he didn't know how to face Ouyang Zhi yet, time couldn't drag on any longer. If you don't want to be as difficult as in your previous life, then prepare a day earlier to have more confidence. Chen Yan walked downstairs and walked to the kitchen after asking the old housekeeper to be in the kitchen.
The moment Chen Yan appeared in the kitchen, the old butler who looked like a fox was stunned for a moment. It seems that Chen Yan has not been seen in the kitchen since the upheaval on her 15th birthday. In the past, she often went into the kitchen to make some snacks for Ouyang Zhi. But it was at that moment that the old butler came back to his senses, "Miss, is there anything I can help with?" Sorry, lunch will be ready in the kitchen, so please wait. ”
"Let him come back to me in the evening." Without waiting for the old housekeeper to react, Chen Yan walked out of the kitchen. The old housekeeper knew that this "he" would not be someone else, but in the past 5 years, Chen Yan would only avoid him as much as possible, so how could he take the initiative to ask to see him. I didn't understand and didn't dare to delay, the old housekeeper walked out of the kitchen and dialed Ouyang Zhi's private phone.
"Young Master, Miss asked you to come back tonight, she wants to see you." Ouyang Zhi made a stop gesture and signaled the person who was reporting to pause. "Rest for ten minutes", Ouyang Zhi walked out of the conference room with the phone after saying to the people in the conference room. "What else did she say?" Walking back to the office, Ouyang Zhi sat on the sofa.
"Nope. I had just arranged lunch in the kitchen when the young lady suddenly walked into the kitchen and said she was going to see you in the evening, and then went back to the room. ”
"Is there anything wrong with her in the past two days?"
"Nope. Except for the daily walk in the garden, which I reported to you, the young lady was in the room. ”
Ouyang Zhi hung up the phone and tapped his fingers on the sofa. He couldn't guess why Chen Yan wanted to see him. He knows how much Chen Yan rejects himself, he usually doesn't even feel comfortable hearing his name, not to mention that he still takes the initiative to see him now. There's nothing wrong with Chen Yan recently. Ouyang Zhi rubbed his eyes and continued to go back to the meeting. Anyway, I'll find out when I go back tonight.
Night was fast approaching. Ouyang Zhi walked into the restaurant and saw Chen Yan sitting there without surprise.
"You want to see me?" Ouyang Zhi looked at Chen Yan, and after Chen Yan glanced at Ouyang Zhi, he quickly looked away. She still couldn't face him without any guilt.
"I'm hungry." I didn't have the courage to make an excuse.
Ouyang Zhi never looked away, and naturally found that Chen Yan's hand under the table was clenched into a fist and trembled slightly.
"Let's eat." He nodded to the old butler who was standing aside, waiting for instructions.
There was nothing to say for a while, and it was quiet to eat.
In the study, Ouyang Zhi shook the glass in his hand, and a faint aroma of wine emanated. "Can you say it now?"
"Do you believe in the end times?"
"Tell me about it."
Chen Yan took a sip of boiled water and looked at the dark night sky outside the window, his voice was soft. "I don't know where the virus came from, just when the whole world was basking in the joy of the upcoming New Year, the unknown virus hit the whole world. There are zombies everywhere, eating blood and raw flesh like wild beasts. No consciousness, no feeling. Even if their limbs are broken, even if they have no flesh and skin, as long as their heads are still there, they will not die. Some of the people who survived the virus have mutated. It is to have a variety of superpowers, which are specifically divided into natural attributes, such as wind, ice, thunder, and electricity; There are five elements of attributes, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth; There are also two kinds of spiritual power and space. It's the same with animals and plants, it's just that they don't have so much of the ability to mutate. ”
After a pause and a sip of water, Chen Yan continued, "On the last day of the year, the end came. ”
Ouyang Zhi didn't have any special reaction, and he couldn't see whether he believed it or not. For a long time, "How do you know?" ”
Chen Yan is most afraid of this problem. But she knew that if she couldn't explain this problem reasonably, Ouyang Zhi wouldn't believe it. Then this life will still be the same as the previous life.
Ouyang Zhi didn't urge, he knew that Chen Yan would definitely speak.
"Wait a minute, I don't want to repeat it twice. I called Ouyang Fu and them, they should be almost there. ”
Ouyang Zhi, who had always had a calm face, raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Chen Yan to contact them. Since Chen Yan asked for help from them and they ignored them, over the years, except for Ouyang Fu, Chen Yan didn't want to see a few others, especially Qin Qin. Chen Yan actually took the initiative to contact them tonight. This is the second conjecture after knowing that Chen Yan asked to see him.
Ouyang Zhi didn't speak, taking small sips of red wine. I was thinking about the end of what Chen Yan said just now. To be honest, if someone else said that the end was coming, he must think that the other party was crazy. He didn't believe a word. But it was Chen Yan who spoke, and he couldn't find a reason not to believe it. Chen Yan is not a man of his own words. It can even be said that Chen Yan is a very withdrawn person. Except for those few months, Chen Yan can be said to have never been in contact with many people. He couldn't forget her smile from the heart, it turned out that she could be so lively and cheerful, and it turned out that she would have such a rich expression on her face. But it was all destroyed that night.
And now the unbelievable doomsday she said, no matter how ridiculous it is, in fact, Ouyang Zhi accepts it. While waiting for Ouyang Fu and them, Ouyang Zhi was thinking about what to do next.
