Night, so thick it turns black, so heavy as water.
Fengchi Yan sat on the lawn of the rcenaries’ Free Base, waiting for the arrival of an airplane.
One hand held a cell phone; the other clasped a cigarette.
He rarely smoked, but that night, he broke his own habits again and again. The man, once renowned for his patience, had now reached his breaking point, with waiting becoming the most torturous ordeal.
He had given her ti to move on from her past, granted her the freedom to slowly accept him, and even galy played along with her, but he didn’t want her to drop dead before they could actually play!
He really wasn’t familiar with Tokyo and had no useful contacts, making him feel constrained and awkward in his actions, so Fengchi Yan took another couple of restless drags on his cigarette.
Before he t her, he didn’t know what fear was;
Before he fell in love with her, she didn’t know what terror ant;
But after he t her, his whole deanor began to change for the worse.
He couldn’t figure out what attracted him: her svelte figure or that aura around her which made him resonate so deeply?
Right now, he was completely consud by fury and anxiety, so much so that he couldn’t sleep at all!
He worried about her safety every minute of every hour!
The sound of a lighter, strikingly conspicuous in the pitch-black night.
Luo Xi, where exactly are you?
.................................
It was also late at night, Shaocheng Gu had just taken a bath and was getting ready for bed when Chenxing’s phone rang again, an unfamiliar number, not the sa one from which Sister Luo Xi had called the last ti, but it was the sa person calling.
She yelled excitedly, "Cousin!"
The next second, the man next to her snatched away the phone. Chenxing stared with wide eyes as Shaocheng Gu soothingly patted her on the head, held the phone, and asserted in his usual dominating tone, "Tell where you are."
Luo Xi wanted to hang up the phone.
Shaocheng Gu’s tone beca even more insistent, "If you’ve been wronged, for the sake of being Chenxing’s cousin, I’ll help you."
"..."
He didn’t give her ti to hesitate or think: "Luo Xi, I’ve always thought you were a smart girl. Don’t try to defy . On your own, you have only a ten percent chance of success at what you’re attempting. If I help you, the probability can increase to sixty percent. Will you continue to choose?"
"This is my own business; I don’t need anyone’s help!" Luo Xi’s voice was proud yet forcefully suppressed a certain emotion over the phone.
"You’ve got my woman worried sick over you, and my brother running around for you; do you still think it’s just your own affair?"
"I want revenge, my own revenge!"
"Co to Senke Hotel, room 319, you have half an hour!" Shaocheng Gu gave the order tersely.
There was a pause on the other end, and then a refusal, "There’s sothing I’ve left behind at the cross statue in Yufei Park on Dreis Street. If I don’t co looking for you within two days, you go get the thing..."
"Get over here now!" Shaocheng Gu decisively cut off her words.
But the line was already dead with a beep.
Luo Xi hung up the phone and sat under the night sky; she had never made a single call to Fengchi Yan, even though she knew that this man was concerned about her at this very mont.
Everyone has a stubborn side.
She rejected Fengchi Yan’s closeness because she felt that one day she would follow her captain and teammates; now, that day had finally co.
