Chapter 25: The Promise
Yi Qi Wanxi didn't know what she was thinking, but she vaguely felt that she had met someone she was very familiar with when she was in the orphanage before, but she forgot who that person was.
Maybe it's Qi Tianyu. Yi Qi Wanxi said to herself.
The car stopped at the gate of the orphanage, Yi Qi Wanxi got out of the car, watched the bodyguard move the things on the car out of the car, the middle-aged male security guard who was not tall at the entrance of the orphanage saw it, and hurriedly greeted it, saw that it was the car of Yi Qi Mansion, looked at Yi Qi Wanxi for a few seconds, and said busily: "Ah, it's the third lady on Yi Qi Mansion, right?" ”
Yi Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded. She wasn't curious about how the security guards knew her, because she knew how famous she was now, after all, she was the one who made the headlines, although it wasn't a good thing.
"Ah, Third Miss! Long time no see. The security guard's tone gradually became excited, "I heard that you went abroad, when did you come back?" ”
He doesn't know? Yi Qi was stunned, looked at the man in front of him with suspicion, and saw that he didn't look like he was lying, so he said, "I've been back for a while." ”
Yi Qiwanxi thought that everyone knew about her, and everyone in Shanghai would talk about her rights and wrongs. But the man in front of him didn't seem to know, although Yi Qi Wanxi didn't completely believe that the man in front of him didn't know, but he was still slightly relieved.
"Third Miss, ...... you are" The security guard looked at the large pile of things on the ground and asked Yi Qi Wanxi.
"I bought some gifts for the kids." Yi Qi said gently.
When the security guard heard this, he showed a surprised expression, and when Yi Qiwan felt slightly uncomfortable, the security guard said, "Is today a special day?" ”
Yi Qi Wanxi squinted slightly to show her doubts, and the security guard helped the bodyguard carry some things, and hurriedly greeted Yi Qi Wanxi inside: "The children will be very happy, you haven't been here together for a long time." ”
Yi Qi Wanxi followed the security guard inside, and the bodyguard also carried a lot of things behind him. Yi Qi Wanxi wanted to ask if someone else was coming, but before she could ask, she saw the figure of the children in the yard squatting and playing with the children.
Yi Qi Wanxi's mind had many pictures of the past, and her heart trembled violently, and when she heard the security guard greeting the group of children, the group of children ran towards Yi Qi Wanxi with cheers. Yi Qi Wanxi was surrounded by children, but her eyes were always on the person who slowly got up and looked at her.
He was still dressed in black, and the faint sunlight shone on his face, making him look very gentle.
"Third Miss." Seeing this, the bodyguard next to her called her softly.
Yi Qi Wanxi looked back at him, and saw the bodyguard winking at her, before she came back to her senses, withdrew her gaze from the person not far away, and then bent down to respond to the enthusiasm of the children.
Yi Qi Wanxi distributed the gifts to the children, and inadvertently saw the person not far away sitting leisurely on a stool drinking tea. After the gift was distributed, the security guard asked Yi Qi Wanxi if she had any instructions, Yi Qi Wanxi shook her head, and the security guard said, "Then I'll go out first, and the third lady will call me if she has an order." ”
"Thank you." Yi Qi replied with a slight smile, and then the security guard walked past her.
The bodyguard beside him glanced at the people drinking tea not far away, and then looked at Yi Qi Wanxi, who was bending down to play with the children, and hesitated for a long time before he spoke cautiously and slowly: "Third Miss, the major general is over there." ”
"I know." Yi Qi said softly.
"Don't you ......" the bodyguard wanted to ask, "Why don't you go over and say hello", but he didn't ask.
Yi Qi Wanxi didn't look at the bodyguard, but as if she knew what was on his mind, she said what he didn't ask: "Did you go over and say hello to him?" ”
The bodyguard bowed his head slightly and replied respectfully, "I wanted to ask this." ”
Yi Qiwan was silent for a moment, and said to the little boy in front of him who looked to be only seven or eight years old and had a more cheerful personality: "Sister has other things, so I won't accompany you?" ”
When the child heard this, his immature face showed a little regret: "Is my sister leaving?" ”
"Hmm...... My sister came to see you another day. Yi Qi said gracefully and got up slowly.
"When will my sister come again?" The kid asked.
Yi Qi looked at the child and was silent for a few seconds, then reached out and touched his head, and said with a smile: "Sister will come over when she is free." "In the past, Yi Qi Wanxi would play with the children in the orphanage, but now, Yi Qi Wanxi has no interest in accompanying children at all. Because she is not an age group, Yi Qi Wanxi doesn't know how to get along with children. So after distributing the gifts, Yi Qi Wanxi wanted to leave.
But the main reason why Yi Qi Wanxi left so early was the person who drank tea indifferently not far away. That, Yi Qi Wanxi didn't know how to face the person.
"Sister must come next time." The little boy said, with an innocent smile on his childish face.
After the little boy said this, Yi Qi Wanxi felt like she had made a promise. Yi Qiwanxi's heart trembled suddenly, feeling that this feeling was a little familiar, and she was stunned for a few seconds before she smiled lightly: "Okay." ”
"Sister must come next time." Out of the orphanage, Yi Qiwanxi's mind kept thinking about this sentence. But it was not the little boy who said this.
"I can't remember......," Yi Qi muttered awtently.
The bodyguard next to him looked at Yi Qi Wanxi, who suddenly spoke up, with some surprise, and before he could speak, he was attracted by the voice behind him: "Can't remember anything?" ”
"Less...... Major General ......" said the bodyguard.
Hearing this, Yi Qi turned her head sharply and looked up to see Si Yu's cold face. Yi Qi was stunned for a moment, and then called: "Young marshal." ”
Si Yu looked at Yi Qi Wanxi, his expression was indifferent, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression. Seeing this, the bodyguard next to him felt that it was inappropriate for him to stay here, so he said that he would wait for Yi Qi Wanxi in the car and go back to the car. As soon as he turned around, he heard Si Yu's emotionless voice: "You can go back first, and I will send the third lady back to the house later." ”
When the bodyguard heard this, he looked back at Si Yu, swallowed his saliva secretly, and then said, "That...... I'm tired of the major general. After speaking, he hurried away as if fleeing for his life.
Si Yu looked at the figure of the bodyguard leaving in a hurry, looked down at Yi Qi Wanxi, who was a little overwhelmed, and chuckled: "Am I scary?" ”
"Sort of." Yi Qi replied simply.
"What do you think?" Si Yu said, put his hands in his pockets and bent down slightly to put his face in front of Yi Qi Wanxi, "Where am I scary?" ”
Yi Qi Wanxi was taken aback by Si Yu's sudden approach, hurriedly lowered her head to avoid Si Yu's gaze, instinctively took a small step back, her tone was very light, and she was slightly dissatisfied: "Young marshal, it's too close." ”
"Huh?" Si Yu looked at her for two seconds, then straightened up and looked at her with a smile, "Is this close?" The man at the last tea party was closer to you, right? ”
"Last tea party ......" Yi Qi Wanxi suddenly thought of Gu Yi, and her face turned red. She blushed not because of Gu Yi, but because she thought that Si Yu had noticed it.
"Gu Yi, the son of Gu Liguo." Si Yu said casually, "Do you think it's useful to change your name?" ”
Hearing this, Yi Qi looked up at Si Yu with an indifferent face, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Huh?" Si Yu looked at her and couldn't help but smile, "You look like you're worried about him?" ”
Yi Qi Wanxi didn't speak, Si Yu thought that Yi Qi Wanxi had been in the UK for five years, and the two of them didn't seem to be strangers, so he asked again: "What is your relationship?" ”
Yi Qi Wanxi knew that Si Yu was thinking too much, but she didn't want to explain, so she said, "I don't think this has anything to do with you, young marshal." ”
As soon as the sound fell, Yi Qi Wanxi saw Si Yu's face darken suddenly, and her heart was inexplicably flustered, so she added: "It's just a friend." ”
When Si Yu heard this, there was a slight smile on his face: "Since it is Wanxi's friend, then I will try my best to save his life." ”
"He didn't do anything wrong." Yi Qi Wanxi frowned slightly.
"Thirteen years ago, the Gu family was banned by **, you should know that Gu Yi came back to kill himself." Si Yu said lightly, "Unfortunately, now this matter is in my charge." ”
Seeing that Yi Qiwan's face was full of worry, Si Yu said, "Out of selfishness, I don't want him to live." He deliberately paused, and then said, "I don't want your heart to worry about other men, even if it's just friends." ”
"But, I suppose if he dies, you'll remember it for the rest of your life, right?" Si Yu's tone was still flat, "For me, it doesn't matter if he lives or dies, but if he exchanges his life for your life, this is not a cost-effective deal." ”
"You're not just friends, are you?" Si Yu looked at Yi Qi Wanxi, who had been silent, and asked, "He will return to China because of you, right?" ”
Yi Qi was silent for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to look up at Si Yu, and as soon as she raised her head, she was hugged by Si Yu. His chin touched her head, and a soft voice came from the top of Yi Qiwanxi's head to her eardrums: "I said, I won't miss it again." I hope that after that, you will have a place in your heart. ”
With a tender tone and ambiguous words, Yi Qi Wanxi almost fell. But on the day when the drizzle flashed in his mind before sinking, a woman in a light purple cheongsam held his arm, holding an umbrella and gradually disappearing into the rain.
His eyes...... There are other women......" Yi Qi Wanxi's words sounded in her head, and then pushed Si Yu away violently, but she staggered back a step, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Si Yu, and said in a trembling voice: "Young marshal." She didn't dare to look at Si Yu, because her eyes were full of tears at this time.
Si Yu looked at her, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, he was silent for a few seconds, and then smiled lightly: "I'm sorry." ”
"I'm sorry." Yi Qi said softly.
"You don't have to apologize." Si Yu noticed the tears in her eyes, so a trace of self-reproach rose in her heart, "I was reckless." ”
The two were silent for a few seconds, and Si Yu asked, "Do you have any arrangements next?" ”
Yi Qi Wanxi shook her head gently, raised her hand and wiped the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes with her fingers.
"Would you mind walking with me if you had time?" Si Yu didn't want to go for a walk by himself, in fact, there were still many things waiting for him to deal with in the army, but seeing that Yi Qi Wanxi was not in a good mood, he wanted to make her happy. As for the affairs in the army, how can Yi Qi Wanxi be important, not to mention, there is that guy here.
