Being hugged tightly by her father, Ayase Kawauna was very excited at first, but soon she realized something was wrong. Perhaps because she was too happy, Ayase Nagao hugged her very tightly,
It made her feel like she would be out of breath soon.
"Snapped!"
Just when Ayase Kawakana was hugged and almost out of breath, the beautiful woman on the side, Ayase Kawakana's mother Ayase Miho, stepped forward and gave her husband a hard slap on the back, and at the same time angrily shouted: "
Idiot, let go of Kawana!"
After being whipped by his wife, Ayase Nagao reacted and quickly let go of Ayase Kawana. Looking at his daughter who was gasping for air after leaving his arms, a look of shame suddenly appeared on his face, and he apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry.
Kawana, dad is really excited, so..."
"It's okay, Dad."
Although she was almost hugged to death by her own father just now, Ayase Kawakana was still extremely excited. Seeing her parents and grandfather here was like a miracle to her. She originally thought that she might not be able to live forever.
She had the opportunity to reunite with her family again, but what she saw before her finally made her understand what Lin Cheng had always told her, that as long as a person is alive, there will always be hope.
Lin Cheng and several people on the side looked at the excited family who were finally reunited. Although the expressions on their faces were calm, they were still very happy for Ayase Kawauna. You must know that a family can stay in the apocalypse for so long, and even during this period,
It was a miracle that they were separated for thousands of kilometers and still managed to meet each other alive in the end. Such a small probability event was almost impossible to happen, so even Lin Cheng, who had a relatively dull emotional character, had a smile on his lips at this time.
After a while, the Ayase and Kawauna family, who had calmed down a little, suddenly walked up to Lin Cheng and the others. Looking at Lin Cheng who was leaning against the wall with a cigarette in his mouth and a carefree look on his face, Ayase Nagao looked excited and held Lin Cheng's hand tightly.
I kept thanking you with both hands: "Thank you! Thank you so much!"
While he kept thanking Lin Cheng, Ayase Miho wanted to kneel down to them without hesitation. Fortunately, Bai Ling's quick eyesight and hands caught her in time, so that the situation was not turned into something Lin Cheng didn't like the most.
That kind of embarrassing situation.
After Bai Ling persuaded Ayase Miho, Lin Cheng also took his hands away from Ayase Nagao and said helplessly: "Mr. Ayase has thanked you before, so you don't have to do this, Ayase
We are also very happy that Miss Ayase can reunite with you, because this at least fulfills the promise I made to Miss Ayase at the beginning."
Ayase Nagao and his wife didn't know much about Lin Cheng's character, but fortunately Ayase Kawana spoke to them in time. Knowing that Lin Cheng didn't like to be polite, Ayase Nagao gave up all kinds of tedious gratitude.
In his words, he said: "But...but no matter what, you all helped us bring our daughter back. We must express our gratitude to you, otherwise, it must be very hard for everyone to come all the way here, right? From
From now on, please let us entertain you well!"
Lin Cheng knew that Ayase Yuuo and his wife must sincerely want to express their gratitude with practical actions, but at the same time, he did not forget the purpose of coming here, so he waved his hand after hearing this and said: "You can stay here for entertaining.
Let’s talk about it later, we and Mr. Ayase are here mainly because of what happened before, and we can talk about other things after this matter is resolved.”
"What happened before?"
Hearing his words, Ayase Nagao and his wife were startled for a moment, and then they realized what he was referring to.
After reacting, Ayase Nagao wanted to say that what happened just now was nothing at all, but soon he realized that it was not him alone who had the final say, and the words he was about to say were stuck in his mouth,
His expression couldn't help but become awkward.
Seeing Ayase Nagao's expression, Lin Cheng realized that this survivor group did not seem to be monolithic. According to the situation he had just dealt with Ayase Nagao's family, their family was not that strong.
Personality, and no one seems to have awakened special abilities. It can be said that he belongs to the lowest level of existence in the apocalypse.
Although there was no discrimination in the expressions of the fellow survivors behind them, it was obvious that even if there was no chain of discrimination within the survivor group, the decision-makers were probably not ordinary people like Yuu Ayase.
In other words, they only have partial decision-making power.
Just when Ayase Nagao didn't know how to speak, a tall and thin man who had been standing in the crowd behind him suddenly walked out. His eyes first stayed on Ayase Kawauna for a moment, and then he stretched out his hand towards Lin Cheng and spoke at the same time.
Said: "Hello, my name is Xiao Chi Che, what do you call me?"
"Brother Koike?!"
Before Lin Cheng could reply, Ayase Kawana, who had been chatting with her mother in a low voice, suddenly exclaimed and walked to Xiao Chi Che in a few steps. Looking at the unfamiliar yet extremely familiar figure in front of her, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"What, do you know each other?"
Seeing Ayase Kawauna's surprised face, Lin Cheng raised an eyebrow and asked casually.
"Long time no see, Kawana."
Looking at the girl who appeared in front of him alive as if by a miracle, Xiao Chi Che also had a look of emotion on his face. Then he saw him smiling and said to Lin Cheng: "It's like this. My family and Grandpa Ayase are neighbors. When I was a child, I often talked to him.
We play together with Kawana who comes to visit Ayase’s grandparents, but we rarely see each other since she and Uncle Ayase moved away from Zahuang.”
"Childhood sweethearts."
Hearing Xiaochi Che's explanation, Lin Cheng nodded clearly, thinking that no matter which country or place he was in, this kind of story of childhood sweethearts between neighbors was common.
Ayase Kawana felt a little shy when Lin Cheng said that she and Kochi Che were childhood sweethearts. She opened her mouth to explain, but she saw Lin Cheng suddenly frowned after carefully observing Kochi Che's appearance for a few times and asked: "You...should
Couldn’t he be the person we met at the convenience store before?”
"ah?"
Hearing Lin Cheng say that Kochi Che turned out to be the figure that flashed past them at the door of the convenience store at the beginning, Ayase Kawana was suddenly surprised and wondered if the world should be so small...
"it's me."
After his identity was revealed by Lin Cheng, Xiaochi Che had no intention of denying it. Although the two sides had some unpleasant quarrels before, and the real investigation would start from when he was exposed, but since Lin Cheng and the others appeared here
, which means that the two sides have entered the peace talks stage from now on. It is meaningless to deny these things at this time. It is not a frank admission that will make the peace talks progress more smoothly.
