Chapter 112: The future is already predestined, but it hasn't happened yet
Wen Yao originally just came over to read the book, but now he was teased like this, and the whole person was wrong.
With a hint of warm rose fragrance, she didn't have time to answer this question, the man's magnetic and beautiful voice sounded softly: "Do you believe in fate?" ”
Wen Yao was a little stunned by an abrupt question without a head, she raised her head and looked at him with a pair of clear and bright apricot eyes: "Huh? ”
Ji Mingchen looked at her ignorant and confused expression, inexplicably soft in his heart, stroked the hair on the back of her head, and looked at the red curtain over there lazily: "For example, everyone, including you and me, is just a pawn of fate, with a predetermined destiny." ”
"Within the cone of light is fate, the future is already doomed, but it has not happened yet."
“?”
Wen Yao didn't know why the topic suddenly turned here, and she didn't know why he was asking such a mysterious question, the end of the world caused her to read less, so she really didn't understand: "What do you mean?" ”
Ji Mingchen laughed very softly, he quietly lowered his hand, landed on the black gun on the sofa, and his slender fingers deftly turned the gun and clenched it in the palm of his hand: "It means that if someone is destined to be hit by a bullet, it means that this shot has already been fired......"
Wen Yao always felt that communicating with this man was a bit of a brainstorm.
Just as she was about to ask something, the candle flame in the retro living room suddenly shook violently, and she subconsciously looked at the burgundy curtains, and then the sound of gunshots rang out in the silent room, "bang", which startled her with a thrill.
Ji Mingchen also turned her body and hugged her back into his arms: "Don't be afraid." ”
In a moment, a man in a black uniform smashed out of the curtain next to him, the muzzle of the gun hit the center of his eyebrows, his eyes were tearing in pain, and his mouth let out a painful whimper.
Wen Yao turned her head, she looked at the man on the ground in shock: "...... How long has he been hiding here? ”
Ji Mingchen smiled at Wen Yao's frightened expression, and hugged the person into his arms again: "It's always there." ”
The man on the ground was an alien, a shot was not fatal, he wanted to protect his spirit element, but when he finally regained his strength and looked down, his chest was torn open by an even stronger strange force, and then a gray ball of energy light floated out of it.
The incident happened suddenly, Wen Yao was really frightened, and the position of the curtain was only five meters away, and there were always people at this distance? The point is, didn't she just pull the curtains? She didn't even notice it???
She couldn't have even been alert to that......
"He's an invisible ability, a higher level than you, and he has a heart to hide, of course you can't notice it." Ji Mingchen patiently explained, his fair-skinned and slender fingers moved slightly, and the spirit yuan of the man on the ground was torn out of the air, and he died completely out of anger because of this.
Wen Yao didn't realize that she was already in Ji Mingchen's arms, her mind was still on that supernatural person, she glanced at it several times, and finally recognized the appearance of that person: "He...... He's Captain Lee? ”
Captain Li is responsible for guarding the southwest city wall, and his status in the 14th District of Dongzhou is the same as that of Captain Luo and Captain He, and he also holds important positions.
As the S-class commander of the base, a heavyweight, he is like this...... A sloppy death?
"Hmm." Ji Mingchen's eyes were cold, but the corners of his lips curled: "He has been in the base for a long time, and I have always trusted him, so I was just waiting, judging his intentions, but he ...... Still trying to kill me. ”
Wen Yao nodded, and couldn't help but feel a choke in her heart.
Captain Li, the oldest of all S-level commanders, looks like he is in his thirties and forties, he is usually honest and upright, has a good temper, even if he is in a high position, he does not hold a stand at all, and even has the image and temperament of a good old man.
She met him twice in the restaurant of the castle villa, and the other party greeted her with a smile, and asked her if she still went to the southwest city wall to play like a child......
Ji Mingchen took the small ball of light back, and when the corpse rose into flames and gradually burned into ashes, he asked again: "So you say, is this fate?" ”
Wen Yao looked up at him, and in those beautiful peach blossom eyes, there were bright candles, indulgent gentleness, and faint and indescribable sadness.
At this moment, his dark eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the soul, and she felt palpitations and emotion......
Before, she didn't quite understand Ji Mingchen's status as a star-like moon in the 14th District of Dongzhou, and he was clearly familiar with everyone, why he only took Di Dahu and Mei Yasha with him every time he traveled.
Later, I learned that he had also been betrayed......
Even if he is in a high position, he will be betrayed by many more betrayals than her.
She has seen human nature selfish and sinister, why hasn't he?
Wen Yao thought for a while, wrapped her hands around the man's neck, buried her head lightly in his neck, and said softly, "Don't be sad......"
The soft hair rubbed against the neck, and the low and soft voice was close to the ear.
Ji Mingchen was stunned, he wanted to take this opportunity to seek comfort, but he didn't expect that he would get the desired result before he started to speak......
Things seem to be much easier than they think......
The key is that she not only hugged him, but also ......
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the girl on his body, and couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple.
The black-shelled book fell to the carpet, and she sat on his lap, hugging his neck affectionately.
“……”
How could it be unbearable.
Wen Yao didn't hear anyone answer after speaking, she looked up at Ji Mingchen, and the other party also happened to look down at her, his eyes were dark and uncertain, and his voice was a little dumb: "Baby, let's not talk about this for now......"
"So what's going on?"
"Talk...... Where are you sitting? ”
“……!”
