Chapter 665 Contradiction

Although Wu Shuang was smiling, I could see the change in her emotions; she seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the matter. I sighed inwardly, feeling helpless. It was indeed my fault, but there was nothing I could do. I had already promised them; I couldn't just let them wait to die over there.

Let them stay in Longhu for now, at least it's safer here. If they can't adapt to life here, then we'll take them to Jiajiang.

When Wu Shuang and Jiang Xiaoxiao arrived at the entrance of Longhu, the two guards at the gate respectfully greeted him as their leader. Wu Shuang then allowed them to enter Longhu.

Afterwards, Wu Shuang, with a smile, arranged a rather secluded place for them to stay. This was a helpless move, since Jiang Xiaoxiao and her group were just outsiders who didn't know anyone in Longhu. It was better not to make contact with them for the time being, and to do something later to let them get to know each other.

Anyway, we still have plenty of time.

Having arranged everything, Hu Fei returned at this time.

He was not caught by Zhu Zhenhao.

It was getting late, so I followed Wu Shuang back to her office.

Wu Shuang asked somewhat displeased, "Didn't you say there were a hundred people? I just glanced at them, and there were only fifty or sixty of them. Where are the rest?"

I said, "The rest of the people are near the mountain."

Wu Shuang looked at me with suspicion, "Linshan? What happened?"

I said, "That's a long story."

Wu Shuang crossed his arms, looked at me with a half-smile, and said, "It's okay, we have plenty of time tonight anyway, you can talk slowly."

Hearing this, I immediately gave a wry smile. What was she trying to do? Could it be that Wu Shuang was really angry? I thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be that possibility. I had only mentioned this matter briefly before, without going into much detail. Today, I brought people directly to Longhu, so it was normal for Wu Shuang to be angry.

Oh, what a blunder!

Immediately afterwards, Wu Shuang said, "If you don't explain everything clearly today, don't even think about getting into bed with me!"

"..." I stared, wanting to speak, but Wu Shuang had already turned and left the office, leaving me alone, conflicted.

Hu Fei walked in at that moment, holding a bag of potato chips, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Your wife won't let you into bed?"

"Get lost!" I rolled my eyes.

Hu Fei chuckled and changed the subject, "Let's not talk about that. When are we going back to Jiajiang? Now that you've found someone, shouldn't you go back?"

I said, "I don't know."

Hu Fei said, "You don't know? Your wife isn't happy to go back with you?"

I sighed and said, "She's not my wife yet."

Hu Fei rolled his eyes at me, "Stop talking nonsense. Even if you don't say it, I can tell that your wife is the leader here now. It's completely impossible for her to leave unless you move everyone in Longhu to Jiajiang. Otherwise, Wu Shuang probably won't go back with you."

I didn't say anything. I had naturally thought of what Hu Fei was saying, but what could I do?

Although I really hope Wu Shuang will come back with me, the situation at Longhu is still unstable, beset by internal and external troubles. If Wu Shuang leaves now, the entire Longhu will be leaderless and may be wiped out any day.

I said, "Let's wait a little longer, but if you want to go back, you can go back first. Remember to be careful on the way."

Hu Fei glared at him, "Is this how you're going to get rid of me?! Hey, you're so heartless!"

I said, "If you don't want to leave, then stay. Stop talking nonsense!"

"..." Hu Fei looked at me with a wronged expression, and finally said with a curse, "You little brat, your wife doesn't like you, so you take it out on me. Heh, I hope you never get to sleep in a bed!"

What should I do if I really want to hit him?

Hu Fei naturally wouldn't go back to Jiajiang District alone, since they had agreed that they came together and should go back together.

As for the current situation, we can only take it one step at a time.

Unless Longfor suddenly disappears, it's simply impossible to bring Wu Shuang back to Jiajiang.

...

That night, before I went back to my room to rest, I thought for a long time about how to tell Wu Shuang about these things.

The matter of Linshan sounds easy, but getting Wu Shuang to agree to let the people from Linshan enter Longhu is a very troublesome matter. When Gao Jianlin asked me for help, he asked me to take him back to Jiajiang, so there is still room for negotiation on this matter.

However, Jiang Xiaoxiao and her group are in trouble. They have already settled in Longhu Lake, and it's impossible to drive them away. If a conflict arises, it will be difficult to resolve.

This is really difficult.

But no matter how difficult it was, I had to do it. In the end, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go into the bedroom.

Once inside the bedroom, I saw that Wu Shuang wasn't lying on the bed, but standing by the window with her back to me. She was dressed smartly, but I had no idea what she was thinking.

"You're here," she said.

"Um."

Wu Shuang didn't turn around, looking at the night outside the window, and said, "Xiao Nan, do you know, do you know that after I was resurrected, I would get up every morning before dawn, stand by the window, and watch the sun gradually rise outside? As long as nothing unexpected happens, I will do this every day. Do you know why?"

"I know," I said instinctively.

Wu Shuang shook her head. "You don't know, I did this because I've been hoping. I've been thinking, how wonderful it would be if one morning when I wake up and look at the sun, you suddenly appeared beside me. That way, I could watch the sunrise with you, and we could go back to how we were before."

Hearing what she said, I didn't know how to respond.

Wu Shuang gave a wry smile and said, "Do you know how happy I was when you appeared at the research institute? I thought I was dreaming, but when I actually saw you, I was really, really happy. At that moment, I really wanted to leave Hangzhou and this place with you, and live the life we ​​were meant to live."

"But I can't do it, you understand, Xiaonan, I can't do it!"

I said, "I know."

Wu Shuang suddenly turned around, her face streaked with tears, but her tone was unusually calm. "I know you've always wanted to take me back to Jiajiang, but Xiaonan, can you be realistic? Do you think I can leave here? Longhu is basically a mess right now. Without me, this place will definitely be finished. Do you really want to see so many people die?"

I didn't say anything, but walked up to her, wanting to hug her.

But Wu Shuang took a step back, leaned against the window, and shook her head, saying, "Don't be like this, Xiaonan. I know I'm not calm right now. Can you go out for a bit and we can talk about it tomorrow?"
