As a loud noise, which sounded very rough, came out of the radio, communication with Bao Congxin was cut off. ∈ pineapple, ∈ Xiao said that Yu Siqi guessed that it was mostly his own accusations that completely angered Bao Congxin, so that he had to vent his anger on the things in front of him.

Although Yu Siqi reprimanded Bao Congxin positively this time, after he really calmed his head, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have messed up Father An's arrangement. Because of his recklessness, Bao single-mindedly cut off the communication, which is not particularly suitable for the priest or even others. He could already see this from Father An's slightly helpless expression.

For this, he decided to apologize to him.

"I'm sorry, Father, I didn't control my emotions for a while."

"Understandable, but not admirable. After all, in a sense, what you've done has pushed the rest of us, along with yourself, into the opposite of the heart. I don't think that's much for you personally. But have you ever considered what other people think? Especially Gong Chen, don't forget, he has a family. Once Bao Congxin used Gao Xiaofang as a bargaining chip to blackmail him, have you ever considered such consequences? ”

Although Father An's expression did not look angry, every word he said revealed his dissatisfaction with Siqi. This made the latter's mood a little depressed. yes, he's only interested in the momentary refreshment. Now that I've stabbed such a big basket, I don't know what to do, so I can only continue to apologize.

Seeing Yu Siqi's sincere look of guilt, Father An's tone softened a lot. I saw him glance around at the other people who were still asleep, and then at Yu Siqi and William, and said, "But I think that since everything has happened, and I, as the person concerned, did not come forward to stop you in time, I actually have an unshirkable responsibility." Well, when Gong Chen wakes up, I'll explain the situation to him personally. As for you, my good student, I hope you will be able to take this lesson. Remember, don't be complacent just because you have something that others don't have. You know, we happen to have more than one real case here of being complacent and having nothing. ”

As he said this, Father Ann deliberately moved his gaze to Shengjia's body and winked playfully at Yu Siqi. Such behavior undoubtedly made Shengjia complain, but she unexpectedly held back.

After noticing that Father An was no longer angry with himself, Yu Siqi hurriedly found a topic to reverse the somewhat depressing atmosphere.

"So what are we to do now, Father?"

Yu Siqi humbly asked Father An for advice.

"As I mentioned before, because of your personal behavior, we don't really have many options. Of course, I'm sure that handing you over will definitely make Bao 'open up' to the rest of us. But that's not what I wanted, and it's not what the rest of you expect to happen, so you can rest assured. ”

Father An's calm analysis actually surprised Yu Siqi when he heard it, especially the part about handing himself over, it was like talking about chips. Fortunately, Father Ann was able to return the sentence in time, which made him feel a lot more relieved.

"But does that mean we're going to have a hard time going forward?"

Yu Siqi, who was a little relieved, asked tentatively.

"I'm afraid it's going to be very difficult to walk. You may not know that Bao Congxin can wield far more power and means than you and I can think of. Besides, I've always known that he's a very petty guy. If you scold him this time, he will probably have to regain face on another occasion. ”

Father Ann looked at the starlight that was spilling in from outside the cave and said absentmindedly.

"Then I might as well just take the initiative to stand up and take the mistake, anyway, he won't take my life. It's a big deal to be punished, to suffer and to suffer, these are not really big things for me now. ”

After listening to Father An's words, Yu Siqi said a little angrily.

"Angry words don't help the status quo in any way, and handing you over will certainly solve the current troubles. But have you forgotten where we stand? Actually, I appreciate what you said to Bao Congxin, which is almost impossible for me to say. Especially the paragraph about breaking the rules because of self-preservation, I still feel a little ashamed. Words that I avoided out of apprehension became a curse that plagued my self-expression. Maybe that's what 'overthinks'! ”

Father An left Yu Siqi's side and walked quickly to Gong Chen. The latter was still sleeping 'very sweetly' at the moment, at least from Yu Siqi's point of view, he didn't see anything wrong. However, Father An quickly kicked Gong Chen's belly with his toe and said, "Get up, I know you're pretending to be asleep." ”

"How did you find out?"

Gong Chen, who sat up quickly, looked at Father An with wide eyes and asked.

"The premise of not being detected is that you are actually asleep, like everyone else. Obviously, you don't. ”

Father An grabbed Gong Chen's arm, pulled him to Yu Siqi's side, and briefly recounted to him what had just happened. Judging from Gong Chen's expression, although he was very happy that Siqi was able to scold Bao Congxin; But under their inattentive gaze, his face gradually became a little darker, and the whole person was much gloomy.

"You're worried about me, aren't you?"

Gong Chen knew that he couldn't pretend to go down, so he spoke directly.

"It's easy to guess, after all, of all the people present, you are one of the easier targets to be persuaded took."

Father Ann poured some boiling water for each of them, then blew on a few hot breaths and took a sip.

"What kind of stupid words, am I the only one who has a wife? You're not an easier target than I am, and don't forget that you have a wife and children yourself. ”

Gong Chen, who had taken the hot tea, asked Father An in a very exaggerated tone.

"I'm different, I'm divorced a long time ago, and the child takes her mother's surname. If this can be the target of retaliation, then Bao Cong must be careful. After all, for me, who lost my church membership, all the rules and precepts that used to exist no longer exist. ”

Father Ann said coldly.

"If you have a kind, I don't have that ability. Anyway, what the buddy did this time was indeed a little impulsive, but it wasn't incomprehensible. Thank you for the tea, Father. I think... Is it okay to go and calm down alone? ”

Gong Chen handed the undrunk hot tea back to Father An's hand, and at the same time sat uncharacteristically in the very edge corner, facing the wall.

"He... Okay? ”

Yu Siqi asked with concern.

"Oh, he'll be fine. But until then, we may have to keep our distance from him. It's not just for us, it's for him. ”

Father An looked at the undrunk tea and said thoughtfully.
