Text 319 Outside the Lining Chapter: The Phillips Family

The days passed quickly, and by the time An Ning had almost gotten used to Chris's presence, the day of parting had come.

"Tomorrow you're leaving for Phillips's house, take care."

An Ning put down the homework at hand and said to Chris that it was really thanks to him these days, otherwise with her English level, it would be really difficult to catch up with the progress of the textbook.

"Is there anything you'd like me to bring?"

Chris didn't seem to regard this mission as a dangerous thing, and even asked An Ning what he wanted to bring.

It's like going on a trip rather than completing a tricky task.

"I don't have anything I want to bring, I just want you to come back safely."

An Ning looked at Chris seriously, he saw the worry in An Ning's eyes, and smiled and comforted: "Okay, I promise you." ”

"I must come back safely, I have put the course content of the next few days in this ipad, you just remember to do a test paper every day."

She nodded, and the reluctance in her heart kept pouring out.

But she was still stubborn and didn't show this emotion.

Chris knew that An Ning was in a bad mood, but he didn't say anything more and gave her a sweet goodnight kiss as he left at night.

"Wait until I get back."

An Ning's heart was sour, somehow, as soon as she felt that this annoying guy was about to leave her, she couldn't calm down, and even had the idea of going with him, which was entangled in her heart.

This night, she slept restlessly, she clearly knew that Chris's strength was definitely not simple, in short, he was not a very weak exorcist, but, judging from some of the things he had done to her recently, it was probably not just the Phillips family that bothered him.

There are also some bad things that she doesn't know about, hidden in the dark.

He didn't want to tell himself, and it was inconvenient for her to ask more, but, as his girlfriend, he hid too many things from himself, and he was responsible for them all, which made An Ning feel a little guilty.

"Miss Anning, get up."

Anna routinely wakes her up every morning, and the weekend passed quickly, in the blink of an eye in just two days, and by Monday, Chris had already taken an early morning flight to the continent where Phillips's house was located.

At the dining table in the morning, there was a familiar figure missing from him, so that An Ning was constantly wandering when he ate breakfast.

"Ning? Peaceful? ”

Jenny kept calling An Ning's name, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses, and she said with an embarrassed smile: "I'm sorry, I'm distracted." ”

Henry and Jenny have experience in this area, and they can see at a glance that An Ning is distracted, with a gentle smile on his face: "Chris, that kid, don't look at his usual weak appearance, his ability to exorcise demons is stronger than that of me, a father." ”

Wenwen is weak?

An Ning almost squirted out the milk in her mouth, and her hand holding the fork and knife shook, and she couldn't help but complain in her heart.

Where did they see that Chris Wenwen was weak? It seems that Chris also kept a hand when facing his parents and did not show his true side.

In Anning's words, Chris is a wolf with a gentleman's appearance, a gentleman's wolf for short, who treats others kindly, but treats her very differently.

Cunning, black-bellied, and a difficult man to deal with, he likes to tease her every time.

However, he only molested her.

Judging from the fact that he was able to push her on the shoulder with one hand and press her to the bed and couldn't move, he was not weak at all.

And his lean muscles, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to match the word "weak". What a horrible man, he didn't even see his parents like that.

Laura, who was not very skilled with a knife and fork, pouted when she saw An Ning looking absent-minded.

She picked up the buttered bread on her plate and wanted to give An Ning: "Don't be sad, Chris is not as weak as you think, and he is not the kind of man with a heart." ”

Erin was amused by her sister's words: "Where did you learn the words?" Player? I don't remember a teacher teaching you that kind of word. ”

Henry and Jenny were amazed at Laura's behavior, the youngest daughter was one of the most difficult beings in the family to deal with, and the whole family had to revolve around her, and she was very possessive, and once said that she wanted to marry Chris as his wife.

It can be seen that Chris's status in her heart, Henry and Jenny are not as good as themselves.

But how could she be so kind to An Ning now? Give her back bread to comfort her?

Jenny looked at An Ning with satisfaction, and knew at a glance that the woman chosen by her son was not small, and she must have her unique personal charm to be able to deal with Laura's little trickster.

Henry finished his breakfast, was wiping his mouth with a napkin, glanced at the tranquility sitting there with jam, and said, "Why don't you go too." ”

"Huh?"

An Ning didn't expect Henry to say this, and opened his mouth in surprise.

Jenny agreed with her husband's words: "yes, you should go with him, you miss Chris so much, you must want to be with him." ”

She shook her head, "But, I've just started class......"

"You can make up for the course or something, and with your current state, even if you go to the class, I'm afraid you won't be able to listen to anything."

An Ning lowered her head, and Henry asked Anna to go to her file bag and take out a piece of it and hand it over.

"I've already prepared a plane ticket for you, and three thousand dollars, you go to him and surprise him."

The actions of the Henry couple shocked An Ning, not so much shocked, but more moved.

They really are, already treating her as a member of their own family, including Laura, who has been hostile to them before. She looked down at the sliced bread she had on her plate, her eyes a little wet.

"Mr. Henry, I can't take this money, and the plane ticket is ...... I will definitely give you back the money for the ticket. ”

As soon as these words came out, Henry's face pulled and he said indifferently: "After that, let's talk about it later, this is the plane at one o'clock in the afternoon today, let Jack take you to the airport after breakfast." ”

An Ning nodded vigorously, Erin was also smiling and looking at her kindly, while Laura tapped the plate with a fork and said, "Help me bring a Cindy Queen's doughnut, I don't know what his boss thinks, only open one store, I want to eat chocolate and vanilla strawberry flavor!" ”

When Abel heard this, he also shouted, "I want a latte hazelnut flavor, preferably the doughnut with a toffee filling." ”

"Laura, Abel, you really are."

Jenny shook her head helplessly.

An Ning now understands that Chris's habit of asking me what to bring before was developed from here.

Indeed, the missions received by the exorcist come from every corner of the country, and they often go to some other cities to do tasks, and it is normal for the family to want to bring some special products.

"Okay, I won't forget."

An Ning responded with a smile.

……

Chris sat in a somewhat dimly lit room, very British-style, with some of the furniture and paintings on the walls showing the rich history of the Phillips family, as well as its wealth.

A man with dark blonde hair sits in a wheelchair with a blanket printed on a red background on his legs, and his entire body has shrunk due to an unknown illness.

His arms and legs were like those of an old man, his skin was wrinkled, his face was gray and wrinkled, and he had an oxygen tube in his nose.

Allen's appearance, no one will think that he is the same age as Chris, but will think that he is an old man who is over half a hundred years old.

A man who looked somewhat similar to Alan stood beside him, his face full of worry, and his eyes were already full of despair.

After running all over the country M and seeking medical treatment without success, at this moment, he can only treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, otherwise why would he ask the David family for help, hoping that they can help?

Chris half-crouched on the ground, observing him. If it weren't for the fact that Alan's chest was still rising and falling, no one would treat him as if he were a living person.

He was thin and lifeless.

"His energy and vitality have been sucked away, and now he only has a breath hanging in his throat."

Chris narrowed his eyes and looked around.

In this room, he didn't notice any ghosts, so what was it that was sucking his essence?

"Chris, what the hell is going on, why is he the way he is?" Sean asked nervously, and when he saw Chris's serious expression, he knew that things must not be simple.

Chris looked up at the tower outside the window, the gray exterior was mottled in places, and a small black hole was near the top.

"I thought, I need to take a look at that tower."

As soon as these words came out, Alan immediately reacted, and his body began to shake with excitement, as if he was trying to get up from his chair.

"Alan!"

Sean grabbed him by the shoulder, no longer letting him move at will.

Chris's narrow eyes narrowed, as if sensing something, and asked, "Mr. Sean, you just told me that Alan often goes to that tower?" ”

Sean nodded.

"I know what the problem is, I need to be alone in the tower at night."

"This ......" Sean was obviously hesitant, as if he didn't want to let Chris into the tower.

"Do you have any concerns?" Chris asked, completely ignoring Allen, who had exhausted all his strength to protest.

"Eren won't let us into the tower."

Don't let in?

The corners of Chris hooked and said, "He can't stop me now, Mr. Sean." ”

"If you want your son to get better soon, you'll have to let me go and find out tonight."

"Now is not the time to reject me, no matter how unwilling Alan is, I have to save his life first."
