A meeting lasted for several hours and finally ended.
Chu Ling took the initiative to leave the meeting a few minutes before it was about to end. This could be regarded as a kind of protection from Chu Tian. After all, among so many people present, there were all kinds of people, and no one could do anything about it.
Make sure that no one will go back on their word or use some underhanded tactics, so it is very necessary to take the first step.
Chu Ling returned to live in the room arranged by his father. Chaos had already given the order to abandon Chu Ling when he was at the Xuanyuan Sword Tomb. Although Yelena finally violated the order and wanted to take him away, Chu Ling was still beaten by Chu Ling in the end.
I was persuaded to leave.
Now he is like a wanderer who has lost his organization again. He can only live aimlessly in the original world, and he can't even find the goal of survival.
Although he could go back to Chaos, after experiencing what happened during this period and knowing many things he had forgotten, Chu Ling had no way to go back there.
But if he didn't go to Chaos, no one in the organization here would dare to take in a wanted criminal like him, so Chu Ling could only remain in this state where no one dared to take him and he had nowhere to go.
Although his father's Ling Yun will definitely not dislike him, it is impossible for Chu Ling to really join Ling Yun to add obstacles to his father's power. A newly emerging power, even with its previous foundation, still needs a long time to develop and grow. This
At this time, if you take in a wanted criminal, it will have a very negative impact on the organization's reputation and influence.
If you think about it this way, maybe returning to Earth to live in seclusion is a good choice, but Chu Ling has too much blood on his body, and he must pay it off first before he can return to Earth and live a normal life.
Lying by the window and looking at the busy city outside the window, Chu Ling had smoked three or four cigarettes without realizing it. He exhaled a long puff of white smoke, and a rare trace of exhaustion flashed through his eyes.
They say they want to pay it back, but how should they pay it back? Do they have to finish it? Thinking about it this way, the pressure is really great.
"Dong dong dong!"
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Hearing the sound, Chu Ling put out the cigarette butt, turned around and walked over to open the door.
Outside the door, Luo Xi was putting her hands on her hips, looking at Chu Ling with her head slightly tilted, and said with a smile: "Why did you lock yourself in the room again? Come on, I'll treat you to dinner."
Chu Ling saw a flash of surprise in the other person's eyes. When he heard what Luo Xi said, his eyes gradually softened. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth and he said: "My current status is not suitable for messing around.
Walk."
"Why do you care so much? I'm just going to treat you to lunch. I didn't ask you to do anything. Let me see who can blame you for this!" Luo Xi said with a smile.
When Chu Ling heard this, there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes. He smiled and shook his head and said: "Forget it, you go and eat. I'm just going out to cause trouble to others. It's best to stay in the house."
.”
"Okay, okay, just follow me!" Luo Xi said, taking the initiative to grab Chu Ling's hand, pulling him and running outside.
"Hey!" Chu Ling was pulled up and staggered. Seeing that Luo Xi did not let go, he had to quickly steady himself and follow Luo Xi.
The two ran together among the ruins, and finally Luo Xi led Chu Ling to a large tent. Chu Ling looked inside and saw that there were tables of people eating spicy hotpot.
Seeing that there were so many people among them, Chu Ling subconsciously pulled on his collar to cover most of his face. If these people were to recognize him, I'm afraid these people would no longer be in the mood to eat Malatang.
Everyone will be frightened and run for their lives.
After all, in the eyes of the civilians in this city, Chu Ling is an out-and-out devil, the devil who destroyed their city.
Noticing Chu Ling's reaction, Luo Xi pulled him without entering the tent. Instead, she walked around from the outside to the back and found Mu Canglan who was busy in another tent.
"Senior Mu, look who I brought here?" Luo Xi looked inside and said with a smile.
When Mu Canglan heard the sound, he looked over and saw Luo Xi and Chu Ling beside Luo Xi. When he saw Chu Ling, Mu Canglan was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said to the other chefs: "You continue to work.
Ah, keep working!"
After saying that, he wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen. He looked at Chu Ling carefully with his eyes, but said nothing.
Chu Ling was so scared that he was staring at her all over her body. She was about to speak when she heard Mu Canglan suddenly say: "You guys come to eat spicy hotpot?"
"Yeah, please, Senior Mu, please set up a separate table so we won't go in and disturb other guests." Luo Xi nodded lightly and said.
"I understand, the customer is God." Mu Canglan did not speak to Chu Ling, nor did she show any other objection to him. She just set up a table for them like she would treat ordinary guests, and then
I went back to the kitchen to prepare meals.
Seeing Mu Canglan's busy look, Chu Ling's eyes flashed with a trace of envy, and the corner of his mouth curled up and he said: "I really envy Teacher Mu. He can let go of everything and live his own life, even if the world is destroyed.
If he can still deal with it calmly, then he can truly hide in the city."
After Luo Xi heard Chu Ling's words, she looked at Chu Ling with gentle eyes and smiled softly and said: "If you want to live such a life, after defeating Chaos, I will accompany you wherever you want to open a store.
"
Hearing this, Chu Ling looked at Luo Xi and smiled: "You won't stab me again this time, right?"
"Hey, why are you bringing this up again?" Luo Xi said in a low voice, "You know I just wanted to stop you at the beginning, and didn't want to... When I saw you like that, I really
It felt like the whole sky had fallen, and from that moment I realized that you had already held such a heavy weight in my heart without me realizing it."
"I'm sorry, Chu Ling, I know these three words can't make up for anything, but I still want to tell you that from now on, you will no longer be alone."
Looking at Luo Xi's firm eyes, a gentle smile appeared at the corner of Chu Ling's mouth. He reached out and held the other person's palm on the table, and said softly: "You don't need to say sorry, you know, I
I never blamed you."
Feeling the warmth in the opponent's palm, Luo Xi's cheeks turned red for no reason. She struggled slightly with her palm, but when she couldn't break free, she let Chu Ling stop moving.
There was silence between the two of them for a while, and Chu Ling's fiery gaze made Luo Xi dare not look directly at him.
I don't know how long it took, but Chu Ling suddenly said: "After this war is won, how about a long vacation?"
"What are you doing during the long vacation?" Luo Xi raised her head in confusion and asked, then quickly lowered her head.
"I don't know much about going on a trip or something. I'll look at it later." Chu Ling is still a novice on this topic, so naturally she can only speak perfunctorily for the time being, thinking that she should look up information and study it when she goes back.
"Just the two of us?" Luo Xi asked again.
"Just the two of us." Chu Ling nodded seriously.
Luo Xi blushed slightly, lowered her head and replied, "Okay."
"Give me a chance, where do you want me to put my pot?" At this moment, Mu Canglan's voice suddenly came from the ambiguous atmosphere.
Seeing this, Luo Xi and Chu Ling hurriedly released their hands in a panic, looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing.
Unknowingly, the two of them seemed to have returned to the past, and the gap that originally stood between them had disappeared without even realizing it.
