Chapter 429: Once upon a time

"Mr. Mi, are you okay? Where are we? Lu Yao asked in horror.

"I'm fine, I'm sorry, I was dragged to the ship by them with me." Mi Feng sighed, "I only know that we have reached the high seas, but I don't know exactly which sea we have reached. ”

"The high seas?" The bad premonition in Lu Yao's heart became stronger and stronger, and the memory of being kidnapped before hit her mind again, instantly making her so tense that she couldn't even straighten her tongue.

"And who are they?"

Mi Feng said solemnly, "They are the people I told you, who want to rob the family business behind me, they are many and powerful, and those who come are not good, if they don't achieve their goal this time, they will not give up." ”

"So what do we do now? Is your phone still there? Can you call the police and call someone to save us? Lu Yao looked at him with hope.

Unexpectedly, Mi Feng suddenly laughed, as if Lu Yao had told a big joke, his smile was full of self-deprecation.

"Call the police? It's useless, Lu Yao, you don't know how powerful these people are, they won't let the police find out their whereabouts, let alone leave a handle, they have always acted elusively, and the police can't help them. ”

Lu Yao didn't speak, she held her breath and listened nervously to the movement outside.

Seeing her so frightened, Mi Feng couldn't help but comfort again, "Don't worry, I won't let them hurt you, even if they take all my property, or take my life, I won't let them hurt you a single hair." ”

"Mr. Seek......

Lu Yao looked at him with both emotion and shock, the matter has come to this point, it is already fake to say that she is not moved, even if there is no love, but at this moment, she also has a kind of family-like dependence and trust on Mi Feng.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

In the darkness, Mi Feng seemed to chuckle, and at this moment, his gaze was extremely gentle.

"Lu Yao, you forgot all about what happened when you were a child, haven't you?"

"Yes......" Lu Yao looked at him puzzled.

"Then I'll tell you about it, this is your past with me, and you have the right to know." Mi Feng looked at him and spoke slowly.

"Everybody has where he comes from, and where I come from, is a broken family, my father is a poor man, my mother cheated on me when I was seven years old, and followed a man who was older than my grandfather, my father was humiliated and killed both of them in a very cruel way, and then he was sentenced to death, and I became an orphan that no one wanted."

"I remember when I first came to the welfare home, none of the children were willing to play with me, and the nuns were also very jealous of me, they all said that I was the son of a murderer, and there was a murderer's gene in my body, and I was isolated by everyone, at that time, there was only one little girl, who was willing to give me her steamed buns, and that girl was your ......"

As Mi Feng spoke, some kind of spark suddenly lit up under his eyes, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his lips, as if he had sunk into a good memory.

"At that time, you were small, like a pee, you were often bullied by other children, but you never gave in, and you even protected me and helped me beat those domineering children."

……

Lu Yao looked stunned, not deliberately pouring cold water, but what he said, she really couldn't remember it at all.

Mi Feng seemed to see her question, and said unhurriedly, "There is a knife in the palm of your left hand, which was left by you when you helped me fight once, is it still there?" ”

Lu Yao immediately opened her round eyes, no need to look, of course the wound in her palm was left there, this 'secret' was almost unknown, and even she didn't remember how it came about, but she didn't expect Mi Feng to be so clear.

"Don't be nervous, I know you can't think of anything, it's okay, I'll just remember it."

Mi Feng glanced at her with a doting gaze and continued to tell the story.

"I was in the welfare home, every day was very careful, the nuns didn't want to accept me, only Mother Teresa would take me in, if it weren't for her, maybe I would have been kicked out, I was afraid of being swept away, so I was looking forward to being adopted every day, to be able to leave that place."

"Fortunately, I didn't wait too long, about a year later, someone came to ****, as the least popular in the whole house, I was also included in the list of nuns to be adopted, I remember, it was raining heavily that day, I stood in the rain with the children, like livestock by the man, at that time I was full of hope, but I didn't expect that in the end he chose someone else."

"But at that time, I wanted to leave so much, I didn't want to miss that opportunity, so I did something to make the man give up the original child and take my ...... instead"

When Mi Feng said this, his face was already full of self-deprecation.

"I know how shameless it is to do this, over the years, I have also paid the price for what happened back then, I have been retributed, I robbed the life that originally belonged to that child, but I also suffered the misfortune that should have belonged to him for him, fate is both fair and unfair, no one knows where it will lie in ambush, suddenly jump out to surprise you, or a heavy blow."

……

Lu Yao didn't speak, she looked at Mi Feng with a complicated expression, almost unable to believe what she heard in her ears about the facts of the year.

After a long pause, she asked tentatively, "Well...... Where is the child who was robbed of his fate by you back then? ”

"He's dead!" Mi Feng looked over his head and looked at the floor beneath his feet, "On the day I left the orphanage, there was a very serious fire there, and that child died in this accident. ”

"Fire?" Lu Yao's heart jumped, it turned out that that day was the day when Mi Feng left the welfare home? Then why did he say earlier that he went there after he left the institution? Which of these inconsistencies is true?

As if seeing her suspicions, Mi Feng hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, I lied to you before, because I don't want you to know what I did back then, in fact, even if so many years have passed, I still can't face myself." ”

"Mr. Mi, do you remember what happened to the fire back then? Okay, how could something so serious happen? Also, do you know how many children died at that time? Lu Yao looked at him, his face was so anxious.

Mi Feng was silent for a moment, and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, there was only one victim in that fire that year. ”

"One?" Lu Yao exclaimed in an instant.

She looked at Mi Feng blankly, as if she was stupid, and she didn't react for a long time.

Mi Feng met her gaze directly, as if a thousand words of idioms that had been held in his stomach were finally about to be poured out.

"The only victim, his name is Lu Zheng, he is the same age as me, and I took his life back then."

"How so?" Lu Yao still couldn't believe it, "But last time you said it, you didn't know him at all." ”

"I lied, I lied to you."

Mi Feng looked at her with heavy eyes.

"Because he is your benefactor, and I stole his life, I don't want you to hate me and look down on me."

"How can this be ......"

Lu Yao muttered the same sentence, and at this moment, she suddenly felt a little sad again.

For the seal of the year, as well as himself, and the poor man named Lu Zheng.
