Chapter 452: I Need an Explanation
"I know," Sylvia said softly, "the second floor is the intensive care unit, let's go there first." ”
Xiang Qi: "Go and see Zhang Qiang?" ”
"Well, we have to see where he is now." Sylvia was naturally angry about Zhang Qiang's dirty thoughts, but after the anger was over, she didn't have the habit of beating the water dogs, after all, she could already foresee Zhang Qiang's ending.
But since I'm here, I don't seem to be happy if I don't come to see her. That's right, that's what she is.
Xiang Qi: "It's all in the ICU, he probably doesn't know that we've been here, right?" Watching this kind of thing is lively, and the other party always has to watch it soberly to enjoy it. ”
Sylvia: "It doesn't matter, I just have to be happy." ”
The two said that the elevator would go to the second floor, and ordinary people in the ICU could not enter, so everyone could only stand outside the glass window and watch. Looking at Zhang Qiang lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by doctors and nurses coming and going, Sylvia's eyes were very calm.
Zhang Qiang's tragic situation now can't arouse the slightest sympathy from her, if he hadn't run yesterday, he wouldn't be lying here now.
"So why do you want to run?" Sylvia whispered: "It's not been long, but it's still like this, isn't it okay to live well?" ”
Said to Qi Xin, sure enough, you did it. What did you do yesterday? The other party just ran away, and then got into a car accident? It's also too ......
It's hard to say to Xiang Chi, but he himself was shocked.
She stood outside the glass window for two minutes before Sylvia turned to leave. After getting into the car, Xiang Qi asked, "Are you going back or going to the company?" ”
Sylvia looked at the time: "Go back, you come to the house for dinner in the evening......"
Before she finished speaking, Xiang Qi's mobile phone rang. Sylvia unbuckled her seat belt: "You go to the company first, I'll call a car back." ”
Xiang Qi didn't dare to let Sylvia go back alone: "Miss Wei, don't ...... Well, I'll let you go back simply, I do have something to do right now. ”
Xiang Qi dared to assure that if he let Sylvia go back alone, if the other party arrived home safely, everything would be fine. If there is any situation on the road, Huo Yuhuai estimates that it will be blown up.
After all, this person has been building up a lot of anger since last night.
Sylvia: "It's simple and busy, don't you say I forgot, my car is also in the parking lot, and I didn't have time to drive back yesterday, I'll just drive back by myself." ”
Xiang Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine, Miss Wei, you must tell me when you get home, otherwise I won't be at ease in the company." ”
Sylvia pushed the car door and got out of the car: "Okay, let's go." ”
After walking two steps, Xiang Qi chased after him from behind, and Sylvia wondered: "Why are you following again?" ”
Xiang Qi smiled hippie: "I'll send you to the car, I'll leave." ”
Sylvia was helpless: "Okay." ”
Sylvia pressed the car key, and the lights of a black off-road vehicle opposite flashed: "I've arrived." ”
Knowing that Sylvia was not lying, Xiang Qi was really relieved, and turned back to the car and drove away. Sylvia chuckled, was she afraid that she would cause some trouble?
She's kind, okay? She will only make a move if the other party provokes her, where is the kind of person who causes trouble all the time?
Driving out of the parking lot, Sylvia arrived home without a hitch. After talking to Xiang Qi, Huo Yuhuai's phone came: "Arrived home?" ”
Sylvia: "Well, the car was parked in the parking lot yesterday, and I didn't have to send it to Chime, I drove it back by myself." ”
Huo Yuhuai: "Didn't encounter anything, did you?" ”
Sylvia: "Where do you get things going on so often?" You're just thinking too much, so come back early in the afternoon if it's convenient. I called Xiang Qi to my house for dinner, and you entertained him. ”
Huo Yuhuai liked that Sylvia was so polite with him, and he immediately smiled: "Okay, I'll go back in a while." Besides Xiang Qi, will anyone else come? ”
Sylvia: "He's alone at the moment. ”
"Okay," Huo Yuhuai responded: "You have lunch first, I'll be home around three o'clock." ”
After a few more simple words, Huo Yuhuai hung up the phone, but this time he was finally relieved. There were times when he wanted to make Sylvia smaller and carry it with him, so that he would feel at ease wherever he went.
Seeing that Sylvia ended the call, Sister-in-law Huang also came out with lunch: "Miss Wei, it's time to eat." Today I made braised bamboo shoots in oil, and boiled shrimp, do you want to taste it? ”
Sylvia: "Of course it's appetizing, it's hard work." ”
"It's not hard, it's just cooking, where is it?" Sister-in-law Huang served a meal and sat down opposite Sylvia, who usually ate with Sylvia when she was home alone.
If Huo Yuhuai was there, Sister-in-law Huang would rarely eat at the same table with them. She also has an eye, but she can't be a big light bulb.
Sylvia: "I've been doing a good job of watching your videos, and the response has been very good. ”
Sister-in-law Huang: "That's just a side job, if I leave here, I can't ask Old Man Fang for advice at any time." Besides, I'm having a great time with you, and you're the best employer I've ever met. ”
Sylvia smiled, "It's better not to count, you can keep doing it here as long as you want." Of course, if you have other options, you should also tell me in advance. ”
"You can rest assured," Sister-in-law Huang promised: "As long as I have the strength, I will always be here with you, and I will not go anywhere else." ”
Sylvia was in a good mood, she was indeed happy because of Sister-in-law Huang's words. Sister-in-law Huang has done a good job with her in the past few years, but if she changes people rashly, she is not used to it.
"Okay, did you get a salary increase this year?" Sylvia thought for a while and asked, since Huo Yuhuai moved in, she had never asked about Sister-in-law Huang's salary.
"It's adjusted, and it will go up a little bit every year." Sister-in-law Huang's eyes narrowed with a smile: "Every year after New Year's Day, I start to raise my salary, Miss Wei, let me tell you, I am now the highest income in our family." ”
"Really? Awesome! Sylvia's eyes widened slightly: "There's nothing unhappy at home, right?" ”
Sister-in-law Huang sighed: "When I didn't come to work with you before, there would inevitably be some friction at home. I have two daughters-in-law, and I always have no clues. Well, now that I'm not at home, I make money myself, and no one can handle me. ”
"When I went home, I held them all in my arms, this is all the confidence you gave me, Miss Wei."
"It's not me, it's the confidence of the money." Sylvia also smiled: "You've always done a good job, I know it." You are a very intelligent person and I enjoy being with you. ”
Sister-in-law Huang: "But the salary was paid by you and Mr. Huo, I just did what I did, and I really don't deserve your praise." ”
"Duty and dedication are two different things." Sylvia smiled: "I have seen your dedication and effort, on the contrary, I think it seems that it is not enough to just give you money." ”
If it weren't for Sister-in-law Huang's family, Sylvia would have wanted to take Sister-in-law Huang around. It's a pity that Sister-in-law Huang has a partner and a son and grandson, so it is impossible for her to follow her.
Sylvia was a little sorry, she really liked Sister-in-law Huang, but it's a pity.
"We work as workers, what we want is material rewards," Sister-in-law Huang said with a smile: "It's hard to say whether many people can pay their wages on time when they go out to work, and if I say that I will envy others." ”
"People can't be greedy, since I came here to work, my spirit is much better than before, my body is healthy, and I have never been sick in the past few years. It's not Miss Wei, you are raising people here? I used to be a thief with a small illness, and I haven't done it in the past few years. ”
"These are more important than anything else."
Sylvia also smiled: "As long as you are healthy, I still want you to work here all the time." ”
The two laughed and finished lunch, and Sister-in-law Huang was about to leave after cleaning up the kitchen. Sylvia stopped her: "I'm going to entertain Xiang Qi tonight, and I'm going to trouble you with more snacks at night." ”
Xiang Qi went to the town yesterday, although it didn't help much, but Sylvia remembered this favor. Since it is a favor, it is natural to return it well.
Sister-in-law Huang: "Okay, I'll sort out the ingredients in the refrigerator and make a menu in the afternoon." ”
Sylvia: "It doesn't have to be too grand, he has such a big belly, and it's a waste if he can't finish it." ”
Sister-in-law Huang smiled: "Okay, Miss Wei, go and rest, I won't leave in the afternoon." I put the fridge away and made some snacks, and I guess it was time to prepare dinner. ”
Sylvia didn't go to the second floor either, but was crooked on the living room couch. The living room was very well lit, just the chaise longue where she was reclining, warm by the sun.
Lying on the chaise longue, bathed in the warm sunshine, Sylvia's mind gradually emptied.
She felt as if she had arrived in a place where the birds were singing and the flowers were scented, and all the way through the jungle, with birds bouncing on the branches and familiar animals running happily around her.
If you read it right, these are the scenery on the Radiant Continent. Sylvia knew she was dreaming, for her mage's tower had never had such a warm and harmonious image.
But somehow, Sylvia always felt like there was a dead air here.
"Sylvia, you're here......" A gentle but somewhat ethereal voice came, and Sylvia followed the voice, and she was a little surprised to see the goddess wearing a garland by the lake.
"The goddess of life? I didn't expect to see you at a time like this. Sylvia's tone was a little subtle, she wasn't an uninformed person. When she is promoted to become a god of law, she and the goddess of life are on an equal footing, so she doesn't have to be so respectful to the other party.
Moreover, she also vaguely felt that the reason why she had an accident when she was promoted, why she met 0425, nine times out of ten it was related to this goddess of life.
"It's me." The goddess of life looked at Sylvia with a smile: "Your feelings are not wrong, that system ......"
She frowned, but still said the word system: "It did want to bind the wood mage, but I stopped it. I got a glimpse of what the elves were going to do, and I couldn't let those images become reality. ”
Sylvia was silent: "I need an explanation. ”
"Of course, I'll explain it to you." The Goddess of Life was not annoyed, in fact she was perfectly able to understand Sylvia's feelings.
Half-asleep and half-awake, Sylvia listened to the goddess of life explain why she did it. To sum up, the life girl peeked into the elf clan's life mother tree is about to usher in a catastrophe, and the elf clan is about to usher in the disaster of extinction.
And the goddess of life is the patron saint of the elves, and in order to avoid the catastrophe of the elves, Sylvia, the archmage with the branches of the mother tree of life, comes in handy.
Because there is only one Mother Tree of Life in the world, the branch that Sylvia has can only be dormant forever in the Radiant Continent. In order to preserve the hope of the elves, someone needs to go out with the branches of the Mother Tree of Life to avoid the limelight.
"So in the end, it's me who suffers." Sylvia concluded: "You have put me in this situation without asking me about my will. If it weren't for your intervention, I would have broken through very well, but now I'm in this short-lived state. ”
The goddess of life was a little apologetic: "Yes, I am very sorry for you for this matter, and I will make it up to you." ”
"But in this matter, you are the best candidate." The goddess of life did not hide it from Sylvia: "Although that child is very good, she is not mentally mature enough, and she will not survive at all if she goes to a completely strange place." ”
"But you're different, you can survive anywhere and you're going to live well." She said and smiled: "Because of the space barrier, there will be time ...... in the future."
"You ......" Sylvia was about to say more, the figure of the goddess of life gradually dissipated, Sylvia simply kept silent, just lowered her eyes and thought about whether what the other party said was true or false.
To be honest, Sylvia is so calculated by the goddess of life, but considering that she has always had a good relationship with the elves. But no matter what, if the other party lets her fall into such a situation without her consent, everyone will be unbalanced.
"Awake?" As Sylvia opened her eyes, a voice came from beside her.
Sylvia turned her head slightly: "When did you come back?" ”
"It's been a while," Huo Yuhuai took off his glasses: "Sister-in-law Huang said that you have been sleeping, you have never slept for so long in the afternoon, is there anything uncomfortable?" ”
"I'm fine, I'm just finally getting some of my doubts cleared." Sylvia gritted her teeth, and she didn't say anything when she saw Huo Yuhuai's inquiring eyes: "Let's talk about it when we have a chance in the future." ”
"There's a lot I haven't figured out yet."
Huo Yuhuai: "Okay, you can say it whenever you want, of course you don't say it." ”
He was certainly curious about what Sylvia was thinking, but as long as this person was in front of him, he could not have so much curiosity.
Putting this dream behind her, Sylvia stretched, okay, now 0425 is much less threatening to her, after all, behind this is the goddess of life, not another existence, at least Sylvia can feel a little more at ease.
But it was only a few, and there were many things she hadn't figured out.
Thank you for your recommendation and monthly passes, thank you!
