Chapter 478: The Basis of Existence
This is no longer the Beiping in Luo Lie's memory, in fact, he is trying to close the memories of the past, this is already a new world, an era that does not belong to him. The old mansion left by the sparrow is now worth a lot of money, and before she died, she entrusted Lu Jianyang to leave this courtyard house to Luo Lie, and only Luo Lie knew the story about this house.
The door was locked, which couldn't help Luo Hunting, opened the door, and saw that the yard was quite clean, and the sparrow had to come here twice a year before her death, except for when she came, she would ask someone to clean it, and everything remained in the same layout.
Ma Boxuan left a lot of books, and later Sparrow added some, although the house has maintained its former appearance, but the pipe lines have been renovated, and air conditioning has been added.
Luo Lie knew that the sparrow would not leave a house for him for no reason, so he carefully searched the bookshelves.
Lin Geni went to settle his luggage and clean his room, and before he arrived, Luo Lie decided to stay here for a while.
When tidying up the sparrow's room, Lin Geni found some letters that had not been sent in time, the envelope was very good, and looked at the date, it should have been written by the sparrow half a month before her death, it seems that she had been here and lived here for a while before she died.
Luo Lie rummaged through the bookshelves and found nothing, and heard that Lin Geni had found some letters, Luo Lie came to the sparrow's room, looked at the letters, and couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart, all the letters were sealed, and the addresses of those letters were somewhere in Huangpu.
Luo Lie is very familiar with this address, because this address is the former residence of him and Ye Qinghong. After he came to this era, Luo Lie used to go to the old mansion, which was long gone.
Luo Lie looked at the pile of letters and thought about it for a long time, before opening the earliest one according to the date.
Hello Luo Lie,
When you read this letter, I think I am no longer alive, there are some things that I have always wanted to say to you, but it is better to be silent after repeated consideration, I used all my connections to ask you if you can find a way home, but in the end to no avail, I don't want you to despair, but the reality is always so cruel......
This letter was only written and did not continue, and Luo Lie opened the second letter.
Hello Luo Lie,
There are countless things I want to say to you in my heart, but when it comes to writing the pen, I have the idea of cherishing words like gold, should I explain the truth to you? In the matter about your family, I have something to hide, and you have not taken the initiative to ask, time cannot be turned back, what happened has become a fact after all, if you accept the reality of staying in this world forever, then you can open the third letter......
Luo Lie put down the letter, picked up the third letter, and didn't open it for a long time.
Lin Geni looked at him silently from the side, Luo Lie's expression was unprecedentedly heavy, and his eyes were full of hesitation. In the end, Luo Lie still chose to give up, he took out the lighter, and chose to burn all the letters to ashes.
Although he did not read the specifics of the letter, he was able to deduce that the sparrow was talking about his family, and that it was probably a reality that he could not accept.
Luo Lie is not lacking in courage, but he can't be sure if he can still maintain a calm state of mind after learning what happened to his family, although everything has happened, everything has become a fact, but if the sparrow wants to tell him a tragedy, then will he regret it for the rest of his life because of the original choice?
Definitely!
Perhaps his choice was wrong from the start.
Lin Geni went to get a broom and silently cleaned up the ashes, Luo Lie opened the window, let the smell of fireworks in the room disperse outside, lit another cigarette, and looked at the red maple outside the window in the autumn wind. When Lingeney returned to him, Luo Lie said, "I want to go back." ”
Lingeney nodded, "I know." ”
Luo Lie said: "Actually, I haven't changed anything, the only thing that has changed is myself!" he rubbed his hair in pain.
Lin Geni hugged him from behind and comforted him softly: "I will definitely be able to go back, since Jiuding can open the door of time and space, I will definitely be able to open it a second time." ”
Luo Lie shook her head, the sparrow had been investigating in the West Sea for many years, and had not found any trace of Jiuding at all, she had told herself with certainty that after the experience between him and Feng Jiuqing, Jiuding had magically disappeared.
Luo Lie also dreamed of the broken scene of Jiuding countless times in his dreams, perhaps there was an omen in the dark.
The doorbell rang suddenly, and Lin Geni and Luo Lie glanced at each other, both of them were a little surprised, after all, they had just come here, and they didn't alarm any outsiders.
Lingeney whispered, "I'll open the door." ”
Luo Lie nodded.
Lin Geni came to the door, opened the small window on the door, and outside was a polite young man, he smiled at Lin Geni and said, "Hello, is Mr. Luo here?"
Lin Geni said: "You are ......" She was very strange in her heart, after all, they had just come here, and their whereabouts were exposed, could it be Lu Jianyang? She quickly denied this speculation, Lu Jian threatened to do it, since he said that he would not trouble them anymore, he should not do it.
The young man smiled and said, "My name is Shen Wuwu, and someone entrusted me to deliver a letter. ”
Lin took the letter from the window, forgot his worries and left.
Back indoors, seeing that Luo Lie was still sitting there in a daze, Lin Geni quietly put the letter aside. Luo Lie said: "What's the matter?"
Lin Geni said: "There is a person named Shen Wangwei outside who helped deliver a letter. ”
When Luo Lie heard this, his heart was shocked, and he forgot his worries? Could it be his father? He said loudly: "Where is the messenger?"
Lin Ge Ni said: "It should have been gone." ”
Luo Lie didn't care about explaining, got up and chased out, and when he came outside, where could he still see Shen Wangwu's figure.
Lin Geni also chased after him, and when she saw Luo Lie's unusual appearance, she guessed that something big must have happened.
Luo Lie opened the letter, there was only an invitation card in the envelope, but it was a dinner at the Genting Hotel tonight, the invitation card had Luo Lie's name written on it, but there was no inviter, there was an invitation code on it, and it should be scanned to enter.
Lin Geni didn't know if she had done something wrong, and whispered, "Should I leave him behind?"
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "There should be a chance to meet." He put the invitation away.
Lin Geni said: "Only you are invited?"
Luo Lie nodded and said, "Maybe everything is about to fall into place." ”
Lin Ge Ni said, "I'll go with you." ”
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "No, you stay at home and wait for me to come back." ”
Lingenie took his hand and said, "Be careful yourself. ”
Luo Lie patted her pretty face lightly and smiled, "Don't worry." ”
The security check of this mysterious dinner at the Genting Hotel is very strict, even if Luo Lie agrees to bring Lin Geni with her, she will not be able to enter without the invitation code, Luo Lie passed the security check in front of the hotel, he specially changed into a black suit, trimmed his hair, shaved his beard, and the whole person was energetic and graceful.
Each guest has a special leader, Luo Lie's leader is a beautiful blonde girl, on the way Luo Lie said: "May I ask who is the host tonight?"
The girl smiled, but did not answer Luo Lie's question.
Luo Lie didn't continue to ask, it seems that this mysterious inviter wants to keep this mystery until the end.
Coming to the revolving hall on the top floor of the Genting Hotel, and walking into it with the girl, Luo Lie saw a familiar face, Edriana Tingting, who was wearing a black evening dress, walked over to him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Luo is here, I thought you wouldn't come." ”
Luo Lie nodded politely to her, it was regarded as a greeting, it turned out that the host of this dinner was Long Tianxin, in fact, the object of Luo Lie's guess included Long Tianxin, but he didn't expect Long Tianxin to be so bold and dare to hold an event in Beiping so soon after stealing the secret information of the base, did she think that with the support of the North American government, she could have no fear?
Adriana said, "There are a lot of guests tonight, and I still have a lot of things to do. ”
Luo Lie smiled indifferently: "You go and get busy." ”
Adriana said, "By the way, I'll introduce you to a friend. She took Luo Lie to a woman in white who was standing in front of the window and looking at the night scene outside: "Miss Luo!"
The girl in white turned around, Luo Lie couldn't help but be stunned when she saw her appearance, the girl in front of her turned out to be his mother Shen Jiaqi, but Ediana called her Miss Luo. Luo Lie believes that all this should not be a coincidence.
Luo Jiaqi couldn't help laughing when she saw Luo Lie's stunned appearance: "What? You don't know me anymore? Did you lose my things and be embarrassed to see me?" Her words were tantamount to indirectly admitting that she was the white-clothed nun that Luo Lie met in Europe.
Luo Lie laughed, he took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with his mother when he was a girl, this feeling was very wonderful, he smiled: "If I remember correctly, that thing was given to me by Miss Luo." ”
Luo Jiaqi said: "I didn't say I didn't need you to pay it back. ”
Adriana said, "You talk, I'll go greet the other guests." ”
Luo Lie ordered two glasses of red wine, one of which was handed to Luo Jiaqi. He raised his glass and said, "For our reunion again." ”
Luo Jiaqi touched his wine glass, looked around and said, "Where is Lin Genie?"
Luo Lie said: "She didn't receive the invitation. ”
Luo Jiaqi nodded.
Luo Lie said: "Actually, I still don't know who the host of tonight's banquet is?"
Luo Jiaqi laughed, she was about to speak, and a voice sounded behind them: "Jiaqi, it turns out that you are here, I am looking for you everywhere." ”
When Luo Lie saw the visitor, his heart became excited again, because the person who came was Shen Wang's worries, his father, seeing his parents standing together in his youth, Luo Lie had mixed feelings for a while, and he didn't know what to say.
Shen Wangwu looked at Luo Lie, obviously a little vigilant: "This is ......"
Luo Lie secretly laughed in his heart, did his father misunderstand himself and regard himself as an imaginary enemy? He smiled: "You don't know me? Obviously, you sent me an invitation." ”
Only then did Shen Wangwu know who he was, and said apologetically: "It turned out to be Mr. Luo, I'm really sorry." ”
Luo Lie deliberately said to Luo Jiaqi: "Miss Luo, is this your boyfriend?"
Luo Jiaqi's pretty face turned red, she shook her head and said, "You misunderstood, we are colleagues, his name is Shen Wangwu." ”
Shen Wangwu also laughed, but he looked at Luo Jiaqi's eyes with unconcealed love.
Luo Lie said: "Is Mr. Shen a priest or a priest?"
Shen Wangwu was stunned by Luo Lie's question, Luo Jiaqi naturally understood Luo Lie's intention to say this, and she smiled: "It's not." ”
Shen Wangwu said: "It seems that you have known each other for a long time. ”
Luo Lie nodded and said, "I've known each other for a long time, in fact, I've been known to Mr. Shen for a long time." ”
Shen Wangwu smiled and said, "How can I be famous." In his ears, Luo Lie was just being polite to himself. How did he know that in fact, what Luo Lie said was the truth, and the three of them were actually a family. Luo Lie looked at his parents when he was young, and there was a warm current in his heart, his biggest hope from the heart was to be able to be with his parents, a family and He Meimei, and reunite like other ordinary families, but he couldn't imagine that their reunion would be in such a way and in such an era.
Although in the face of this parent, he couldn't tell the truth, and fate was still a little kind of warmth to him.
Adriana walked over from the crowd, and she said to Luo Lie, "Mr. Luo, I'll take you to meet someone." ”
Luo Lie had already guessed who the person he was going to see was, Long Tianxin did not appear at the dinner party, she was in the president's office of the Genting Hotel, watching the scene of the reception through the large monitoring screen. Adriana brought Luo Hunt here, and left immediately.
Long Tianxin was wearing a red long dress, full of charms, beautiful and enchanting, but in Luo Lie's eyes, this beautiful appearance belonged to Yan Tianxin, and this beautiful body contained a vicious soul like a poisonous snake.
Long Tianxin said: "If I write on the invitation that I am the master behind the scenes, will you come?"
Luo Lie nodded and said, "It will come." ”
Long Tianxin smiled: "You don't hate me?"
Luo Lie said: "I won't waste my feelings on people like you. ”
Long Tianxin sighed quietly and said, "You still hate me, so even if I have a hard time, you won't believe it, right?"
Luo Lie looked at Long Tianxin: "You can see me alone, there is no need to make such a big scene." ”
Long Tianxin said: "A woman like me has thought through everything she does, how can I do something meaningless?" she went to pour a glass of wine and sent it to Luo Lie.
Luo Lie took the glass of wine, but did not drink it.
Long Tianxin said: "Are you afraid that I will poison you? If I want to kill you, I won't use this barbaric way, if I kill him!" She pointed to the big screen, which zoomed in on a part of the reception scene, and a face of Shen Wangwu appeared.
"Or her!" Luo Jiaqi appeared on the screen again.
"Or if I kill them all, what do you think will happen to you?"
Luo Lie's expression was like an ancient well, but his heart inevitably fluctuated, Long Tianxin had invaded his own brain domain, she should be the person in the world who knew her secrets. If you kill your own parents, or kill one of them, you lose the basis of your existence.
Long Tianxin said, "They don't know your identity yet, right?"
Luo Lie said: "What do you want to do?" In his opinion, Long Tianxin threw out this killer move, and she must have her ulterior motives.
Long Tianxin said: "I want to save you." ”
