Chapter 161 Depravity or something is actually not important at all
"sit down."
Under Yan Rulong's instructions, Ning Feng sat silently on the sofa in the living room, habitually observing the facilities and layout of the room.
Not all the lights were turned on, only a small one in the living room was turned on, which illuminated the room a little dimly.
This is actually the first time Ning Feng has come to Yan Rulong's home.
Awakened people have a world of awakened people, and ordinary people have a world of ordinary people. Although they are combined with each other, under normal circumstances, the two sides do not interfere with each other.
Especially the awakened ones will deliberately hide their identities and try to avoid affecting the lives of ordinary people.
Although Yan Rulong is in the world of the Awakened, and even sits in the position of "the most powerful person" in the Bincheng branch of the Watch Society, his wife is not an Awakened.
It was just an ordinary woman without any special abilities who accidentally came into contact with the world of awakened people and met the still young Yan Rulong.
Ning Feng didn't know what kind of love story happened in the middle, but he knew the final outcome.
They were married, and their relationship was very happy, but it was not until a few years ago that they finally had a child.
And when Yan Rulong had such a life, although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone deliberately avoided disturbing him.
Ning Feng's behavior at this time was actually a bit taboo, but he was really confused and wanted to find an answer.
And since Yan Rulong is willing to invite him in, it doesn't matter.
Maybe Yan Rulong doesn't mind, or maybe he believes in Ning Feng.
The furnishings in the room are very warm, and it can be seen that the owner of the room has carefully arranged and arranged them, giving it a sense of life without making it feel cluttered.
A cup of coffee was brought and placed in front of Ning Feng. Yan Rulong slowly sat across from him holding the coffee cup.
Without urging him, he drank coffee quietly and waited for Ning Feng to speak.
Staring at the steam rising from the coffee, Ning Feng considered his words and spoke slowly:
"Instructor Yan, regarding..."
But when the words came to his lips, Ning Feng was a little unable to say them out.
Ning Feng, who has always been good at words, liked to use words to attack the enemy's weaknesses, and was good at playing with people's hearts, at this moment, he didn't know what to do.
Yan Rulong was the only person he could ask, and he should be the only person who could answer his questions.
But should you really ask?
Ning Feng was confused. Has Yan Rulong really come up with the answer?
Do you really want to tear Yan Rulong's nearly healed wound open again, and then ask him if it hurts?
Is this a bit too cruel for Yan Rulong?
The room was so quiet that Ning Feng could even hear two steady breathing sounds in the back room.
Yan Rulong has his own life, he has a wife and children.
He has already stepped out, so do we still want to disturb his life?
And when Ning Feng was silent, Yan Rulong put down the coffee cup and took the initiative to say:
"Are you here to ask about the resignation letter?"
Ning Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, hesitated for only a moment, then nodded naturally, stared at him seriously and asked:
"Instructor Yan, I don't understand why you do this?"
Ning Feng made a choice at this moment, and he no longer wanted to ask for that answer.
Whether Yan Rulong avoided it deliberately or unintentionally, it doesn't matter.
It's okay to just change the topic like this.
"Those are not your problems in the first place. Everyone knows this. Each of us..."
With his face as serious as ever, Yan Rulong looked sideways at the back room. There was no response there, then turned back and spoke in a low voice:
"I've made my decision."
"As I said before, I am the commander-in-chief, and those things are my responsibility. I feel..."
Under the dim light, Yan Rulong's expression looked a little gloomy. He looked deeply at Ning Feng:
"I should take this responsibility."
The look in his eyes was complex and profound, as if there were some unspeakable emotions hidden in it, which made Ning Feng speechless.
"You should have gotten the answer from Dr. Lin. She rejected my resignation application."
"Procedurally, this is okay, but... I stick to my idea. I will continue to apply for resignation until I get the official approval."
The deep gaze disappeared, Yan Rulong stopped looking at Ning Feng, raised the coffee cup and took a sip.
"In contrast, Dr. Lin agreed to my application for leave."
Looking at the back room again, Yan Rulong's face showed rare gentleness and tenderness.
"The Watch Club does not lack a leader like me, but my family cannot lack me."
"During this period, I will spend time with them and make up for what I failed to do before, fulfilling my duties as a husband and father."
Ning Feng was silent, he didn't know what else he could say.
Open your mouth to persuade Yan Rulong?
Yan Rulong has made up his mind to leave, and now it's useless for Ning Feng to say anything, let alone the convincing reasons he gave.
So that’s how you agree?
Ning Feng felt that this was not the correct answer, as if there was something wrong.
So, he could only remain silent.
After understanding Ning Feng's attitude, Yan Rulong sighed and asked:
"Anything else you want to ask?"
Knowing that he was destined to get no answer today, Ning Feng did not press the question shamelessly and silently shook his head.
"Well, no more... Instructor Yan, I won't bother you today."
"I hope, I hope I will have the opportunity to work with you again in the future. Please have a good rest during this time."
After hearing this, Ning Feng stood up slowly, saluted Yan Rulong, and walked decisively out the door.
Yan Rulong did not persuade him to stay, nor did he get up, letting Ning Feng leave with a serious expression.
However, the moment Ning Feng opened the door and walked out, Yan Rulong suddenly spoke:
"Whether he has fallen or not, I don't know, and I don't want to know."
It was very abrupt, and he didn't mention anyone by name, but it made Ning Feng pause before he left, and turned around to look back.
"That's not important. It's just the way it is now."
Is this good?
Yan Rulong, who had his back turned to him, did not turn his head. Ning Feng could not see his expression clearly and could only hear a calm voice.
He said:
"Our expectations for you should not become shackles and constraints on you."
Saying the same words as before, Yan Rulong closed his eyes.
His straight waist relaxed, he leaned his back against the back of the sofa and whispered:
"Each of us has to choose our own path."
Ning Feng pursed his lips, and finally said nothing. He saluted Yan Rulong's back, which looked a bit older at the moment, and quietly walked out of the door.
After Ning Feng left, Yan Rulong did not get up and just leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed.
After an unknown amount of time, a figure walked behind Yan Rulong and gently covered him with a thin blanket.
Without opening his eyes, Yan Rulong said the last words in his heart:
"No matter which path it leads to, it will end in the end."
He gradually fell into a deep sleep, and in his dream, he seemed to see a familiar person.
The person he had always respected.
"...We are always losing."
…
…
Ning Feng's brows were furrowed as he left Yan Rulong.
He didn't seem to get the answer, but he seemed to have already got the answer.
In fact, even Ning Feng himself had not thought clearly about the answer he wanted to get from Yan Rulong.
Perhaps, it's just that children habitually want to ask adults for help when they are confused.
It's just that he is an adult now and it's time for him to think for himself.
It's just that there are too many things to think about.
Fallen?
destiny?
Choice?
…
The road stretched under his feet, Ning Feng thought and walked unconsciously.
clatter.
Suddenly stopping, Ning Feng's consciousness returned to reality and he looked up in front of him.
……here it is?
Looking at the familiar environment of the house, Ning Feng blinked.
Did I unconsciously walk back home?
The original destination was here, and there was no reason not to go home. Ning Feng walked forward without hesitation.
Click.
Gently pushing the door open, Ning Feng felt the person hiding behind the door before turning on the light, and heard a strange and charming hum:
"You are finally willing to come back? Remember, there is still someone waiting for you, right?"
"I thought you had fallen to the point of staying up all night, huh!"
Blinking his eyes, Ning Feng was stunned for a moment when he saw Qingmei suddenly jumping out of the darkness, leaning on his hips and looking at him.
She said something fierce, but Jiang Wan laughed after seeing that Ning Feng was safe and sound, and tried her best to stare at Ning Feng with her eyes wide open.
It's a pity that the effect is greatly reduced because of the beautiful face.
"Speak quickly! Who are you fooling around with!?"
Hey!
Recruit from reality!
Ning Feng, who was silently watching Jiang Wan's performance, suddenly laughed.
The worries in his heart were thrown away the moment he saw Jiang Wan, and he no longer thought about it at all.
Ning Feng suddenly understood.
"So this is ah……"
It turns out that I have been getting into trouble.
Falling down or something is actually not important at all.
There is absolutely no point in worrying about what “so-called depravity” is!
What matters is the people around you.
Someone loves you!
"Haha, hahaha..."
Ning Feng laughed, which made Jiang Wan a little confused.
Um?
Jiang Wan tilted her head, wondering why Ning Feng laughed out loud on such a serious occasion.
Shouldn't you be cooperatively afraid now?
It took a long time to control the urge to laugh. Ning Feng smiled and said to himself:
"Fuck the depravity!"
Hey!
Walking forward, Jiang Wan stretched out her hand to tug Ning Feng's cheeks and pulled them apart.
"Be serious! Don't laugh!"
Even if Jiang Wan took advantage of the chaos, Ning Feng would not break away. He put his arms around her waist and said with a smile:
"No, no, no, I just thought about something clearly."
The whole person felt that his thoughts were clearer and he felt more relaxed. Ning Feng shook his head.
"Although I didn't go fooling around, but... wait, when I think about it, it seems to be almost the same."
Jiang Wan:...?
After a pause, Jiang Wan's hand began to slowly increase strength!
Her eyes became dangerous, and she warned Ning Feng with her eyes:
Can you please figure out what to say for me!
Facing her calmly, he blinked and said:
"By the way, I have something to tell you. It's about Shireen."
Jiang Wan: Why did you suddenly mention this name!?
"Actually, she is..."
wait!
The strength in her hand weakened, and Jiang Wan looked at Ning Feng in confusion, not expecting such an unfolding at all.
I just discovered the enemy situation, and you immediately attacked me!?
Ning Feng, on the other hand, thought of what would definitely happen next, and a smile appeared on his lips.
It will definitely be a headache, but he believes that there will be a satisfying ending.
If that's the case, why are you still dragging it out?
"Dr. Lin we met before."
Jiang Wan: “…………”
Appreciating her expression, Ning Feng then added another sparkle with a smile on his face:
