Before she could scold, she was taken the opportunity by the other party to pull hard, and fell directly in the direction of Chris.

She was afraid of pressing Chris's wound, so in a panic, she could only stretch out her hand and hold on to the sofa hard, and the next second she was hugged by the other party.

Sage and sea salt hit the tip of the nose, and it's the staple of a well-known fragrance brand that Chris has endorsed recently.

I have to admit that her previous worries about him were too superfluous, and she couldn't ignore the professionalism and development potential of the man in front of her as a model no matter what.

As a killer before, he must have seen all kinds of people, so he naturally knows how to speak and how to behave in order to please those bosses to the greatest extent, so as to achieve his own goals.

Otherwise, just relying on a face can get hot endorsements one after another, which is obviously a bit fantastical.

"Sue, thank you."

Chris's tone was sincere as never before, Su Jiarui was slightly stunned, her face gently pressed against the other party's neck, and her heartbeat suddenly broke out of rhythm.

"Since my sister died, I haven't been so happy as I am now, it seems that I came to Cloud City, and I really made the right decision."

This is still since the two met, and Chris has rarely taken the initiative to mention his deceased sister to her.

Su Jiarui sighed slightly, and had to admit that in some ways, Chris was the same as her, or even more miserable than her.

She finally experienced family affection under the care of her mother when she was a child, but Chris was always alone, and even when he was young, he didn't understand what love was, so he had to take up arms and be ordered to kill someone who had nothing to do with him.

Either kill someone else or be killed by someone else.

Chris, who grew up in such a cruel world, always reminds her of the self who was tortured in the Su family.

They all closed their hearts, facing the love and light they had been longing for, but they were cowardly like a coward.

Therefore, every time she faces Chris, she will have a feeling of wanting to take good care of him, because she understands that Chris deserves a brighter and better future, which can be regarded as a side, fulfilling an unattainable wish for herself in the once dark youth.

Thinking of this, she smiled and raised her hand to gently pat the top of Chris's fluffy hair, counting it as a response to his words.

"Sue, don't worry, everything will be fine, you deserve better."

Su Jiarui paused, and for a moment, he felt a little hot in his eyes because of Chris's words.

Everything will be fine, she deserves better?

However, the black and oppressive dark clouds that were now entrenched in the sky above Cloud City still had no trace of dispersing.

"Thank you, Chris, you're the same."

Su Jiarui smiled tiredly, and was about to leave, but was held by the other party's hand again.

"Sue, would you like to have some wine together? As a celebration of my recovery? ”

For the first time, Chris looked at her with an almost sincere gaze, so that she couldn't say anything to refuse for a while.

In a way, she does belong to the same kind of person as Chris.

Chris lost his family prematurely, and she, the only family member left, treats her like a street rat.

So they're all lonely, and they all need something to talk about.

Originally, she should have refused, but in this situation, she smiled and nodded.

"Okay."

Chris is a man who knows how to have fun in a timely manner, and he never skimps on life when he can enjoy it to the fullest, but it may also have something to do with his previous career.

He used to be a man with no tomorrow, so he has always cherished the present time for a future with too much uncertainty.

Chris went to the wine cabinet to pick out what he called the best wine, and she just happened to come to the floor-to-ceiling window to enjoy the view.

It's the busiest time of the day in Cloud City.

There were students in twos and threes gathered together to discuss what to eat at noon, and their faces were full of youthful and flying eyes. The streets are filled with hurrying, barely making ends meet, and buses of all kinds carry full carriages of passengers to different destinations.

Cloud City is a city that countless people yearn for, and there are so many people who are eager to use all their efforts just to gain a firm foothold in Cloud City.

The night in Cloud City is full of neon, but the day in Cloud City is only the reality of hurrying.

Su Jiarui looked up and only saw the gloomy sky, just like her depressed heart at this moment.

It's like immersing your whole heart in icy water, the cold is nothing, and the most important thing is the feeling of powerless suffocation.

She had thought more than once that if she hadn't gone to the balcony to look at Chen Cheng because she was idle, would she be the current group of pedestrians who are doing nothing, hurrying but enjoying themselves.

It's not that even though I'm standing on a high place now, I feel like I'm going to fall down at any moment.

"Taste it, I deliberately chose the year you were born."

Chris smiled and handed over a glass of red wine, even the layman Su Jiarui could see that the red wine in front of him was definitely a good product.

She took it with a smile, the sound of clinking glasses was crisp, and the red liquor flowed into her throat.

The slightly bitter taste unexpectedly makes people feel comfortable.

"How do you know my year of birth?"

But as soon as she opened her mouth, she regretted it a little.

"Have you forgotten? I used to be a powerful killer K.,Before carrying out the assassination plan,Knowing your object is the most basic professional quality.。 ”

Chris smiled lightly, but Su Jiarui seemed to taste a little bitterness in his eyes through the wine.

Just like the red wine in this glass, although the wine is full of aroma and transparent color, it still can't hide the bitterness in the mouth.

So, Su Jiarui raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup.

Then she poured another glass of wine and raised her glass at Chris.

"It seems that my life is not all unfortunate things, thank you Sun Tiantian for giving me the opportunity to meet what a friend you are."

Chris said noncommittally to her, but instead of clinking glasses with her as she had imagined, Chris spared the hand holding the glass and passed it through her hand, closing the distance between the two of them in an instant.

He actually chose the posture of handing over a glass of wine!

Chris's flawless handsome face was magnified in front of him, and Rao was Su Jiarui, who had already seen him many times, and he didn't feel a little panicked.

"Sue, respect for our friendship."

Chris winked playfully, deliberately accentuating the last two words. took the lead in drinking the wine in the cup in this awkward posture, although Su Jiarui was somewhat embarrassed, but he was only surprised by Chinese and foreign cultures, so he drank all the wine in the cup in this posture.

"Chris, in fact, many times, I envy you, I always feel that you live a very wanton and chic life, which I don't think most people in Cloud City can do, including me."

From before to now, Su Jiarui feels like a bird bound by a cage, seeing the vast world through the cage, but he has never been able to fly freely, and the world that his eyes can see is undoubtedly a kind of torture for such a self.

"Sue, in fact, you can do it, it's just that people like you are used to living within the boundaries you have set for yourself, you have not experienced real fear, you have not experienced real poverty, but you are always afraid of losing everything in your hands."

"In fact, if you let go early, you will find that the things that you hold tightly in your hands may not be particularly important."

When he said this, Chris rarely showed a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, he tilted his head, as if he was reminiscing, and said indifferently: "Sue, have you ever lived in a slum?" ”

Su Jiarui paused slightly and shook his head.

To be honest, although the town where she used to live was not wealthy, the people who lived there were very satisfied with the status quo, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the so-called slums were just a flash of images on TV in her eyes.

But just the images, she understood what the slums meant.

Dirty, messy, poor, not the most important, the most important thing is despair like maggots on the tarsal bones.

"I hope you never have that kind of life, where you may not see the light of day all year round, I don't say symbolic, but really, you can't see a single ray of sunshine, and it's not the birdsong that wakes you up every day, it's the uncontrollable hunger, that's a force that can drive people crazy, you know? I have seen with my own eyes the phenomenon of eating children, you have an old saying here, it is called tiger poison does not eat children, but tigers will not, but crocodiles will. ”

Speaking of this, he smiled coldly, and gently put the wine glass in his hand on the table, but the movement of his hand paused in an instant. As if he had suddenly seen something interesting, Chris's eyebrows and eyes curved slightly, revealing a beautiful smile.

"At that time, I thought, as long as I can feed my sister and me, then I am willing to do anything."

As he spoke, he approached Su Jiarui very ambiguously, and before she could react, the breath of sage and sea salt had already enveloped her.

Chris's hand rested lightly on her shoulder, turning her back to the floor-to-ceiling window, the tall figure bent slightly, eyes leveling at her, playfully tilting his head and smiling.

"Su, to put it bluntly, people are just high-level animals, and in the eyes of animals, only when more and more competitors appear, will they have a sense of crisis in order to protect their territory and make a difference."
