Chapter 218: Balcony
"I mean, how many people are left in this world right now? After such a catastrophe......"
Chu Donglin's expression of worrying about the country and the people seemed to be sighing for the fate of thousands of living beings on this land.
Looking at his tall back, Liu Mengying was indifferent and silent for a long time before slowly shaking her head.
"You've ...... changed"
She said slowly, and when she looked at Chu Donglin, her eyes were a little complicated and incomprehensible, "You didn't think about these things before. ”
Chu Donglin was stunned, and glanced at her with some surprise, a little curious.
"Really?"
"Yes."
"If it were me, what do you think I would be thinking about?"
Liu Mengying looked at his face fixedly, and her indifferent and penetrating gaze inexplicably made Chu Donglin feel a little weak, and he actually had a feeling of being seen through.
Then she spoke.
"If it were you in the past, all you would be thinking about now would be how to help the base in front of you spread, and then rely on the existing human power to recover the land and cities of this country and rebuild it."
"You don't waste your time on this kind of sentimentality that only poets think about."
"Because in the past, you valued more things that you could grasp in front of you. You won't waste time thinking about things like this that are almost worthless and you don't have to think about it. ”
After a pause, Liu Mengying made a final summary with an indifferent expression.
"At the end of the day, you've always been a pragmatic person. Lack of so-called romantic feelings. ”
Chu Donglin was stunned for a moment. I was completely speechless.
"Am I so good-looking, understand?"
"For those close to you...... Be. ”
Liu Mengying looked at him coldly. said, "You have never been defensive against the people close to you, so in the eyes of outsiders, Chu Donglin, who is unfathomable and almost inscrutable, is as defenseless as a blank sheet of paper in the eyes of those close to you. ”
Chu Donglin covered his head and sighed, "Okay, you all won...... Anyway, you came to me at night, is there something wrong? ”
Liu Mengying glanced at him and said with an indifferent expression. "Xin'er came to me this afternoon."
Chu Donglin's body stiffened, remembering what Liu Xin'er had said to him before, and his expression instantly changed.
"Did she tell you anything?"
Although he had already guessed what Liu Mengying wanted to say, Chu Donglin was still trying to resist stubbornly.
Or rather, bury your head in the ostrich.
Liu Mengying glanced at him, "She told me that if I want to come back and get back together with you, she will cooperate with me." ”
said things with an indifferent face that made all women feel shy, but Liu Mengying couldn't see any shy expression on her face, she was still the indifferent general who was decisive in killing.
She looked at Chu Donglin. He asked coldly, "What do you think?" ”
Chu Donglin was caught off guard.
"Uh...... That one...... Belch...... How so? ”
His gaze wandered awkwardly. Especially behind the corner not far away, he almost felt two pairs of eyes staring at this side, waiting for his answer.
Chu Donglin's forehead began to sweat.
"Well...... I feel like since Xin'er and I are already ......"
"Mr. Donglin, are you there?"
Ban Qingya's voice suddenly sounded in the living room, interrupting Chu Donglin's words, "I seem to have heard your voice." ”
Chu Donglin looked at Liu Mengying in front of him speechlessly, and then looked at Ban Qingya, who was gradually approaching in the living room, with a weak face.
What's going on tonight? Are all snake spirits sick? Why do you come to him without sleeping at night? It's all about to make up a table of mahjong......
Liu Mengying grabbed him by the collar and pulled him in front of him.
The two of them were almost nose-to-nose distances, and their breathing was clearly audible.
"Don't say I'm here."
After saying a cold word to Chu Donglin, she pushed away the man in front of her, turned around and walked straight to the corner of the wall.
There, the only hiding place for the entire balcony.
Chu Donglin subconsciously wanted to pull her behind him, but he was empty.
Then the lonely and indifferent female general disappeared directly into the corner behind the wall, without making a sound at all.
Chu Donglin had a headache on his face.
Now you can really play mahjong.
He sighed, turned to look at Ban Qingya behind him, and his face was weak.
"Miss Qingya, is there anything wrong with looking for me at night?"
Ban Qingya was stunned for a moment, and was a little at a loss by Chu Donglin's reaction.
"Uh...... Isn't Mr. Chu welcoming me? ”
Chu Donglin squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, "Welcome, how can you not welcome it?" I was just wondering how many people could stand on this balcony. ”
Ban Qingya's eyes wandered around the balcony and quickly calculated the result.
"If it were a human of normal stature, it would not be crowded to stand for about twenty people...... What's wrong? Mr. Donglin doesn't sleep at night, why is he thinking about this week's strange questions? ”
Chu Donglin sighed, "Speaking of sleeping, didn't you sleep too?" ”
"It's just that I had some insomnia, and I happened to hear Mr. Chu's voice, so I came over to take a look."
Ban Qingya smiled, walked to Chu Donglin's side, looked at the stars in the sky, and smiled very gently and calmly, "Mr. Chu didn't sleep either, is he thinking about any headaches?" ”
She glanced at Chu Donglin and said, "Since you woke up, it seems that you have always had something on your mind, have you given birth to something?" ”
Chu Donglin sighed, raised his head and looked at the human base under the darkness of the night outside, and slowly exhaled, "What about me, it's already decided." ”
He clenched his fists, not only talking to Ban Qingya, but also talking to everyone on the balcony, "In two days, I will go to sea." ”
After a pause, he added, "Go to sea alone." ”
Ban Qingya was stunned, a little puzzled, "Is there anything else that hasn't been resolved?" ”
"Yes."
"What you're going to do this time is dangerous?"
"Nine deaths, one life."
"Don't you take Sister Xiaoxue with you?"
"I'll be the only one who goes to sea."
"That's ......" Ban Qingya nodded as if she didn't understand, and glanced at Chu Donglin, "What about Xin'er?" How are you going to arrange her? ”
"I'll marry her......"
Chu Donglin glanced at Shishi who was sleeping on the rocking chair and said slowly, "Shishi is my daughter, and Xin'er will be her mother." If I don't come back, Xin'er will raise her. ”
"What about Miss Mengying? What are you going to do? ”
Chu Donglin was silent, and then shook his head bitterly, "If you have missed it, you will miss it forever, you don't have to force it, and you can't force it." ”
That is to say...... Did you give up on her? ”
"No one has ever given up on anyone, and no one has ever been sorry for anyone. This world has always been like this, it's not that you can't live without anyone...... And I can't even see my own future, I can't give her anything. ”
That is to say...... You're actually trying to give her a promise? ”
Chu Donglin smiled bitterly, "Isn't it fun to play this kind of word game?" ”
"Of course it's interesting...... At least for me, that's the case. ”
Ban Qingya smiled faintly and glanced at Chu Donglin, "What if...... I mean, if, if you can get lucky this time and come back safely, would you be willing to make a promise to Miss Mengying? ”
"I can't."
"Why?"
"Because I can't even promise myself, how can I promise to others? Giving her a promise now will do nothing but delay her life. ”
"Then how can you conclude that if you don't give her a promise, you won't delay her life?"
Chu Donglin had nothing to say.
Ban Qingya continued, "Is it difficult to give her a promise? Didn't you say that this time it's nine deaths? Anyway, you're dead left and right, and it doesn't matter if you just give her a promise before you leave, saying that you'll marry her when you come back, right? You don't have a chance to make it happen anyway. ”
Chu Donglin shook his head.
"It's not fair."
"Why isn't it fair?"
"Because I'm just one person, Xin'er is just one person. She gave me all she had, and I must give her all of mine, and it was impossible to divide it into two halves and give her only half of it. ”
"Then you can be sure that what you think is right is what Xin'er wants? What exactly she wants, I'm sure you know better than I do. ”
Chu Donglin shook his head, "Needless to say, this matter is absolutely impossible, I can't do that." ”
"But you ......"
"East? Haven't you slept yet? ”
A voice that everyone was familiar with suddenly sounded in the living room, instantly making Chu Donglin on the balcony stiffen.
He subconsciously looked at the living room behind him, listened to the gradually approaching footsteps, and smiled bitterly, "Mom, you haven't slept at night?" ”
"Mom has something on her mind, so she can't sleep...... Can I have a chat with you? ”
Glancing at Ban Qingya in front of him, Chu Donglin subconsciously refused.
"That...... Mom, I'm almost asleep, let's talk about it tomorrow. Can you go back to sleep first? ”
Chu Mu laughed.
"Stinky boy, how do you sleep on the balcony? Don't fool me, my mother was also young...... Are you making out with a girl right now? If so, Mom won't bother you. ”
Ban Qingya's face was embarrassed.
She whispered to Chu Donglin, "Don't tell your aunt that I'm here, otherwise she will definitely misunderstand." ”
With that, she ran to the balcony where she could hide.
Looking at her disappearing back, Chu Donglin was completely speechless.
In that place where the adult is too narrow to stand and turn around, can hide so many people?
Then he turned around, squeezed a smile into the living room that was uglier than crying, and said, "Okay, Mom, come and talk about something you want, I'm listening." (To be continued!)
