Chapter 562 Prayer

...

In the hot summer of August, cicadas are chirping and the Monterey Park International Airport is bustling with people and passengers.

The airport is a place where people come and go and say goodbye. Jiang Zhiyue didn't want to appear too sad, so she declined the farewell from her relatives and friends. Only Jiang Wanrou and Sheng's father accompanied her.

Father Sheng caringly reminded him, "You have been studying economics in Lici Country for the past two years, and you have been interning at an investment bank at the same time. It must be very hard. If you can't spare the time to return to China, call us more often."

Jiang Wanrou: "You know in your heart that mommy is reluctant to let you go to a foreign country, but you insist on leaving. Mommy has no reason to keep you. But no matter how far you go, just remember to come home."

As her daughter grew up, the mother learned to let go again and again.

Love is like a kite string, it connects us even though we are far apart.

"Have a safe journey." Jiang Wanrou released Jiang Zhiyue's hand, and watched the girl's figure gradually go away until she disappeared from her sight. Then she turned into a faint circle of light and disappeared at the end of the crowd. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and held back her reluctance.

Also not far away, a slender figure stood there. Suddenly, a gust of hot wind blew through the fragrance of flowers and rushed in from the air. Xiao Jingrun took off his glasses.

He kept looking at her, no longer through the obscured lenses.

Xiao Jingrun didn't know why he came, but there was always a voice in his heart reminding him that he should take a look.

Even if you don't do anything or say anything, just look at each other from a distance.

Compared with Brandenburg, the technological economy of Litschland is relatively backward, but it ranks among the happiest and most stable countries in the world and is full of opportunities.

The 9 a.m. flight from Montenegro to Uzbekistan, the capital of the Kingdom of Lithuania, was full of passengers.

Jiang Zhiyue passed the security check smoothly and found the boarding gate. It was the peak travel season during the summer vacation, and tourists traveling to Lici Country had already lined up in a long queue. An advertisement about Lici Country was playing on the giant screen. It was known as the back garden of the "Gods", with blue sky and white clouds, forests and snow-capped mountains, grasslands and lakes. Every picture made people yearn for it.

Jiang Zhiyue watched the advertisement for a while. The messages on LINS kept pouring in. Cui Miaomiao kept asking her, "We are friends after all. Do you really not need me to send you off? When will we meet again?"

Jiang Zhiyue replied with two words: [New Year]

Cui Miaomiao: [I heard that Master Gu begged Mr. Gu to assign him to take over part of the real estate business in Lici Country.]

Gu Zhaoye is an impetuous man. He wants to make everything he does a earth-shattering achievement. He will not turn back until he hits a wall, and even if he hits a wall, he will keep moving forward.

Cui Miaomiao: [My tu (fuck dish fuck), Zhiyue, you should take a look at Master Gu's latest LINS! ]

The other end couldn't wait to take a screenshot and Jiang Zhiyue clicked it and saw that it was Gu Zhaoye who directly tagged Qin Si's account on LINS. There was no picture, but the strong words were able to express his emotions.

[Fuck your mother Qin Si! Steal my wife, steal my lover! I love you Jiang Zhiyue! Do you know that? Jiang Zhiyue, I love you so much, I love you like crazy, like self-abuse! I dare not click on the photos of you and him, dare not ask about your news, but at any moment, I can't stop my heartbeat, my love! ]

[Jiang Zhiyue, don’t even think about running away! Don’t even think about leaving the country and just running away! Jiang Zhiyue! Wait for me!!!]

The poster's mood is extraordinary.

This was not the first time that Gu Zhaoye expressed his love, but he had never been so flustered.

It seemed as if I was really about to lose her and never find her again.

Cui Miaomiao: [My mother told me that Old Madam Gu arranged a blind date for Young Master Gu, and Young Master Gu made Old Madam Gu so angry that she had a heart attack. He has been in solitary confinement for a while now, and he must have been traumatized.]

Jiang Zhiyue understood Gu Zhaoye's temper and just laughed it off.

She was lucky enough to buy a first-row seat in economy class, which was spacious and next to the window.

Jiang Zhiyue's luggage was very simple; a shoulder bag was all her belongings. She put the backpack away and leaned back slightly, letting the warm sunlight shine quietly on her gentle face.

Jiang Zhiyue looked a little tired after being tossed around quite a bit these past few days. She opened her phone and sent a message to Qin Si.

She closed her eyes, half asleep and half awake, and smelled an extremely elegant sandalwood scent, which seemed to be wafting from Xilin Temple. She vaguely thought of the day when she accompanied Xiao Jingrun to pray for blessings, and a kite with an inscription on it was flying in the sky.

There was heavy snow and strong wind.

The young man stood in the snow, his tall figure slender, his hair, shoulders and long eyelashes covered with fine snowflakes.

According to legend, if a strong wind blows by and scatters the cloth strips on which the kite is hung, it means that the gods and Buddhas have heard the believers' prayers.

The old monk was wearing a bright red cassock and holding a rosary in his hand. The strong wind blew the rosary all over the ground, but the kite hanging high in the wind remained steady.

The old monk had a compassionate look on his face, and a trace of sadness appeared on his brows: "Young Master Xiao is determined to take the path that even the Buddha does not approve of."

Xiao Jingrun's eyes were complicated for a moment, and he smiled bitterly and said, "The Buddha is compassionate, but he does not understand the sufferings of the world."

This seems to be a time and space with a different reality.

It's like a dream.

Jiang Zhiyue opened her eyes slightly and saw a different Xiao Jingrun, without her company and without the red kite in her hand.

The man looked much more haggard than before, as if he had just experienced a thrilling competition. Faced with the predetermined outcome, he was still unwilling to accept it, so he made a wish that had no chance of winning.

All the results showed that he lost.

His mother could not protect him, his father favored his eldest son and ignored him, and the only one who extended a helping hand, Old Man Xiao, treated him as a bet in the game.

Xiao Jingrun is fulfilling a wish that makes him be seen as an alien by everyone, and everyone is trying every means to eradicate him.

After ten years of competition, he had been the winner, but in the end, with the combination of several forces, the man was already surrounded by cliffs behind him.

"I lost, but I have no regrets."

There was a gunshot, coming suddenly and unexpectedly.

Blood splattered all over the old monk's face.

The overwhelming snow covered the cold body, leaving only the monk's sad sigh between heaven and earth.

.....

Jiang Zhiyue only felt her ears buzzing, as if she was in a nightmare, and she was struggling to wake up.

Somewhere in the dark, there was some resistance pulling her and forcing her to stay in that time and space. She saw more familiar faces.

The mountains and rivers were broken, and chaos broke out everywhere.

Chu Junyue, who had already defected to Brandenburg, returned to Montenegro.

He was regarded as an alien by the people and a disgrace to the Chu father.

His reputation was so great that adults would mention Chu Junyue's name when they wanted to threaten crying children.

His face, which looked more mature, was full of vicissitudes, and he looked so fierce that there was no trace of life left.
