Chapter 390: The Choice Between Family and Love
"Captain, it's really you, Alun and Guo Xing didn't see your identity. During the discussion, Lucy was amazed.
Xia Yanfeng told them about the ins and outs of serving as the chief soldier of Kaolan City these days, and their hearts were not only full of shock and astonishment about Xia Yanfeng's defeat of Su Trun and Guo Xing, but also their recognition of Xia Yanfeng as a leader. Captain Xia Yanfeng has grown into a handsome man in his own right, this seems to be an indisputable fact! Although Luxi's heart is still on Sutren's side, he also has to admire Xia Yanfeng's strong ability.
"Such small schemes are not enough, and there are important things of life and death for me to complete, and to accomplish that, I need your strength. Xia Yanfeng said, "That weird 'demon contract', we must find a way to find out the truth, otherwise, things will really follow the manipulation of the mastermind behind the scenes and develop in an unpredictable direction." ”
On the dining table, there is no shortage of good wine and good food, Dian Le tore the roast chicken, gobbling it up, Lu Xi also chuckled and ate the dishes, Mengyu took a few sips, his heart fluctuated, but he pretended to be calm on the outside, as if they were not listening to Xia Yanfeng.
Xia Yanfeng also saw this, but for these people, they didn't need to pretend to listen carefully, their hearts, Xia Yanfeng didn't need to say it, no matter how careless they were, Xia Yanfeng could understand their fatigue on the way to Kaolan day and night. Being able to trust themselves unreservedly is already their greatest gift!
However, Xia Yanfeng also observed the subtle changes in the temperament of Luxi and Mengyu, for the human guild, Luxi's heart seemed to be a little numb, maybe it was her disappointment in Sutron, or maybe it was a regret for losing her innocence in the past, she also smiled more at Xia Yanfeng, but in comparison, Mengyu seemed to be a little preoccupied and unsmiling, and after the reunion, her feelings became weaker. She restrained a lot, and when she gathered, she was no longer smiling, but tearful eyes, although she didn't know what had happened in the past few days, but she forced a smile on her face, but she showed a faint sadness to Xia Yanfeng who couldn't tell whether it was more or less.
The reunion was supposed to be a cheerful sonata, but now the atmosphere is a little depressing. Before I knew it, it was dusk, and the whole day of idleness passed like water inadvertently, but fortunately, his best companion had returned to his side, and he was no longer alone, nor did he have to face dangerous provocations alone.
The Black Cloud Knights and the sentries at the head of the city stared at each other for a short distance, but they were safe, but for the sake of safety, the sentries did not relax their vigilance for a moment.
Xia Yanfeng paced up the city to inspect, he was already numb to the respectful greetings of the soldiers, but in the secluded corner under the arrow tower of the city tower, he found a familiar and friendly phantom.
"Sister Dream Fish!" Xia Yanfeng called out to the man.
Dream fish raised his eyes and looked up there, and sighed with a cool breath in his mouth. She turned around and saw Xia Yanfeng smiling lightly and walking towards her, but she was stunned for a while, her face was smiling, and her habitual smile seemed to have been gradually forgotten.
"Sister, do you have something on your mind?" Xia Yanfeng walked to Mengyu's side and simply accompanied her to look up at the starry sky.
Mengyu shook his head, and after exhaling cold air, he actually got straight to the point and got down to business: "I also feel quite strange about the demon contract, I have a hunch that there must be a lot of unknown secrets hidden in it, and our journey has just begun." ”
"Hehe, I know the seriousness of the situation, but it is impossible to solve the problem all at once, and there is still a little bit of leisure. Xia Yanfeng smiled, looking at the sparse sky of the moon and stars, as if there was always a layer of clouds lingering.
"It's just that our fate is like this starry sky shrouded in darkness, trying to grasp it, but it will eventually sink into darkness. "Dream Fish's eyes are deep, and his mood is much heavier than before.
"Even so, it's not good for my sister to lose her smile. Xia Yanfeng smiled and looked directly, but Mengyu was surprised, Xia Yanfeng's smile has never been as heart-warming as today, the smile is like his past self, calm with warmth, his eyes meet, but what is conveyed is invisible firmness and courage.
Mengyu looked at the stars again, but his performance was surprisingly cold: "Yanfeng, let me blow the cold wind alone, sober up." ”
"Sister, I know what you're thinking. Xia Yanfeng was surprised, and immediately speculated.
"No, you don't know!" Mengyu turned his back and his mood changed suddenly, "You just believe that you are the protagonist, so you dare to break into any Longtan tiger's den, but what if you are not the male number one?"
"I never felt like I was the protagonist, we were always living on someone else's chessboard. Xia Yanfeng was shocked and deepened, how could Mengyu suddenly say this to himself?
"Speech style...... What if one day I die...... How sad will you be? Will your heart hurt more than Gu Xingchen?"
"You...... How did you think of 'death'?" Xia Yanfeng was shocked.
"I'm just asking you, if there really is such a day......"
"Why do you think that?" Xia Yanfeng interrupted, "Sister Mengyu, you won't die!
"This is a reality! Death, no one can avoid it, maybe one day, my sister will really fall on the way forward, and no one dares to guarantee that the next one to fall will not be themselves. No matter how firm your heart is, you can't deny the possibility of dying in battle. ”
Xia Yanfeng never imagined that Mengyu would become like this, and he was stunned for a while. The two stared at each other for a long time, but suddenly, Xia Yanfeng's eyes became extremely resolute, and the rare masculinity skyrocketed, only to see him pat Mengyu's shoulder with both hands, that gaze, resolute and warm, like the trust between lovers, but a hundred times better than lovers!
"Dream Fish, in the past, you encouraged me to let me find my lost soul and heart of struggle again and again, and this time, I will give you a promise!" Xia Yanfeng made an extremely solemn gesture, this is also the first time in his life that he called the word "Dream Fish", at this moment, he is like a 'ancient star dust' possessed, affectionate, which is moving, "Dream Fish, I will lend my soul to you, no matter what happens in the future, unless I go before you, otherwise, I will never let you die!" No matter what, I will protect you, as long as I am where Xia Yanfeng is, the possibility of you dying in battle will always be zero!"
The high-profile oath touched the heart of the dream fish every word. Mengyu burst into tears, and threw herself into Xia Yanfeng's arms desperately!
"Speech style...... Words and winds!" Mengyu didn't know how to express her mood at the moment, but just muttered and snuggled in Xia Yanfeng's arms, greedily enjoying the warmth.
"Dream Fish, are you willing to believe me?" Xia Yanfeng continued to possess the "Ancient Stardust".
"Speech style...... Your promise, I firmly believe in. Mengyu looked at him with tears and a smile, maybe he is really not as strong as others see, in the final analysis, any strong woman will always have a soft side in her heart, Xia Yanfeng has deeply understood this. Zhao Mengyu, no matter how strong you behave, it can't change the essence of being a little woman, I just hope that the softness of your heart can bring you more strength, because this is the fate of a warrior!
Got out of his body and looked at each other for a while, the corners of Xia Yanfeng's mouth turned up, smiling but he didn't know what to express. And Dream Fish, whose face is dyed with tears, is haggard and full of affectionate strength. Whether it's Xia Yanfeng or Gu Xingchen, Mengyu can't give up the man who gave her courage!
"Speech style...... If...... If I ......" Dream Fish lowered her head slightly, her face flushed with shyness, and she hesitated, and finally resolutely opened her mouth, "If I fell in love with you, would you accept me?"
"You...... What are you talking about?" Xia Yanfeng also guessed that Mengyu would say this, and there was nothing new to say about anything else, but he still made a surprised look.
"If I fell in love with you, you'd accept me, wouldn't you?" Yumeyu asked again, although she was stimulated by Lucy's words, but before she said this, she didn't know how many unique ideological battles she had to muster up her courage.
"Hehe, no kidding, good sister. Xia Yanfeng pretended to be brisk, "I used to treat you as my relative, isn't this enough?"
Mengyu didn't seem to be satisfied with the identity of "sister", but she felt sorry for Gu Xingchen for doing this, and after thinking about it, it seemed that Xia Yanfeng had always regarded her as a "sister".
Back then, Xia Yanfeng traveled alone, lived alone in a city without relatives and no reason, worked with his head bored, only Mengyu took care of him in every way, between the two, it was false to say that there was no feeling, and this relationship has long been the warmest "family affection" that surpasses the love between men and women!
No...... Even if Xia Yanfeng doesn't say it, she is also clear, Gu Xingchen, who is also good to her, if she comes back after reaching an agreement, and sees her and Xia Yanfeng together, then Gu Xingchen, who is wearing a green hat all day long, will be a person in the future?
The night breeze was light, and the cold was tingling. In his heart, he didn't need to say much to know that Xia Yanfeng smiled and touched Mengyu's delicate and smooth cheeks, and the bitter cold of her combat career could not alleviate her beauty in the slightest.
"Sister Mengyu, today's words, I can say it as if you didn't say it. I also have someone I want to love, and you, who is my dearest sister, don't mention the matter of love in the future, this is the captain's order, understand?" Xia Yanfeng said, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Mengyu's face that gradually dried, and smiled gently, "Also, don't cry anymore, if you cry too much, your face will not be beautiful." ”
"Hmm......" Dream Fish nodded, let her forget everything that the city said tonight......
The two looked at each other wordlessly for a while, and gradually, the evening breeze blowing was no longer soft, but a kind of yin wind that could make people's hearts cool for more than half of the time, as if it was blowing from the end of the horizon, although there was no sound of the wind, but the wind was full of terrifying aura that would only be emitted on the "black gold magic armor"!
"It's not good...... sensed the demonic breath coming from afar, Xia Yanfeng's heart froze, and no matter how confused Mengyu was, he rushed to the city in one go!
