When Qi Jinnuo woke up, he saw Teng Yuan also sitting beside the bed.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on him, half of his face was bathed in light and half hidden in darkness.
Tiny particles of dust danced in the light and shadow.
Even the dust could be seen clearly, but his face was the only thing he couldn't see clearly.
"Why did I sleep for so long?" Qi Jinnuo murmured and slowly sat up.
She only remembered that he told her to rest, and then she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
strangeness.
She was obviously not sleepy at that time, she was just pretending, how could she fall asleep so quickly?
"Awake." He looked at her with a flat tone.
She still couldn't see his face clearly and had a weird feeling in her heart.
The atmosphere between the two of them seemed to have changed, not as relaxed and cheerful as before.
It feels a bit inexplicably heavy now.
"The room is so dark, why don't you turn on the light?" Qi Jinnuo lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but Teng Yuan suddenly held her hand.
"Don't turn on the light yet," he said.
Qi Jinnuo was stunned, "What's wrong?"
He slowly approached her, and now she could see his face clearly.
There was no expression on his face, the same as usual, yet also seemed different.
She couldn't describe it, but she felt inexplicably uneasy.
He placed his hands on either side of her body, his tall figure enveloped her petite frame and locked her in his arms, bringing a strong sense of oppression.
He looked down at her, his lowered eyes like an abyss with no bottom to see.
"Do you love me?" he whispered.
Qi Jinnuo was stunned for a moment, and said without hesitation: "I love you, don't you believe me? Are you still thinking about what Qin Wenqing said? Didn't I explain it to you?"
He looked at her and was silent for a long time.
The girl in front of me is different from the girl described by Qin Wenqing.
But the image of her in the memory fragments he had seen was consistent with what Qin Wenqing said.
Qin Wenqing described her as hypocritical, vain, and of low character. She plays with other people's feelings and will do anything to achieve her goals.
But the girl in front of him was well-behaved and changeable, and her bright eyes were full of love for him.
He couldn't believe that all this was just a lie of hers, a means for her to protect herself.
The more Qi Jinnuo looked at him like this, the more she felt something was wrong. Could it be that he had secretly gone to see Qin Wenqing while she was sleeping?
"You, went to find Qin Wenqing?" she asked tentatively.
Teng Yuan also asked: "Are you hiding something from me?"
Qi Jinnuo's heart skipped a beat, and he reacted very quickly, "No, what could I possibly hide from you? I've told you everything I know."
"As for some of your personal matters, I don't know much, so I can't tell you."
Teng Yuan also remained silent and said nothing.
"I know what Qin Wenqing told you. It was just some couple stuff."
Qi Jinnuo pretended to be relaxed and snorted, "It's normal for lovers to have conflicts and quarrels. You know me, when I get mad, I like to say harsh words and speak without thinking."
"I've even said mean things to you to piss you off, and then pretended to be intimate with other men just to make you jealous."
"I know this behavior is childish. You gave me a severe lesson at the time and told me not to do it again next time, and I agreed."
"Although I am a little willful sometimes, can't you feel my love for you? Are you trying to bring up old issues with me now?"
Qi Jinnuo frowned and became angry.
Teng Yuan also saw through it at once.
This was a trick she often used. Once she felt guilty or was not in the right, she would start to make a fuss, change the subject, and then put the blame on him.
He was silent for a moment, "I was just asking casually."
"Really? So you believe me?" Qi Jinnuo took the opportunity to say, "Let's make a deal first. If we have anything to say, we have to say it all at once. Don't leave any hidden dangers. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if we bring up the past one day."
Teng Yuan also looked at her with a half-smile, "Why are you so nervous? Are you so scared?"
"No way, I just don't want to have a conflict with you." Qi Jinnuo hugged him flatteringly.
She didn't see Teng Yuanye's deep eyes.
Qi Jinnuo let him go again, "Then..."
Before she could finish her words, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Teng, Miss Qi? Are you there?" Lu Maidong's voice came.
"It's Maidong." Qi Jinnuo said in a low voice, pushed him away, got out of bed, turned on the light, and went to open the door.
Not only Lu Maidong was outside the door, but also Jia Zhou.
"You guys? What's going on?"
Jia Zhou saw Teng Yuan was also in the room and whispered, "Can we go in and talk?"
"Please come in." Qi Jinnuo moved aside.
Jia Zhou and Lu Maidong came in and Lu Maidong closed the door.
"You left the meeting early today, so you don't know what will happen next." Jia Zhou started to worry after he sat down. "The Fang family members have bad intentions. They want to use this opportunity to control all the superpowers and bring so many superpowers under their command."
"The Fang family is very good at deceiving people. Those people with special abilities have been instigated by them and regard Fang Zong as their commander. I really don't know what to do."
Lu Maidong looked at Teng Yuanye, "The captain originally wanted to nominate you as the commander."
"I'm not interested." Teng Yuan also said lightly.
Jia Zhou sighed: "I know you don't want to fight for this. That's why I want to recommend you. I don't want me to go to great lengths to gather so many people with special abilities, only to have them become swords in the hands of others in the end."
"It's certain that the Fang family has bad intentions, but the superpowers are all on their side. What do you think I should do?"
He had been feeling depressed since the meeting and couldn't help but come to Teng Yuan to talk and hear his opinion.
Teng Yuan also said: "Those superpowers are happy, why do you care so much?"
"That's what I said, but..." Jia Zhou hesitated.
After all, he was the one who gathered these people together, and he always felt sorry for them.
He had an idea, "How about this..."
Bang!
There was a loud bang and the whole house shook.
Jia Zhou stood up immediately, "What happened?!"
Lu Maidong opened the door and ran out, and saw the fire shining in the sky above the village entrance.
"Captain, someone is attacking! They might be from the three major bases!"
"It's them again!" Jia Zhou gritted his teeth, "It never ends!"
He could no longer care about anything else and hurried towards the village entrance with Lu Maidong.
"Qingqing, are you okay?"
The violent vibration just now almost caused Qin Wenqing to fall down, and Fang Huahao hurriedly supported her.
"I'm fine." Qin Wenqing frowned and broke free from his hand without making a sound. "What happened?"
Fang Huahao looked towards the entrance of the village with a serious expression, "I don't know, maybe something went wrong, stay here, I'll go find someone to ask."
He turned and headed towards the village entrance.
Qin Wenqing stood there, frowning, and couldn't help but think of the fact that Teng Yuan also came to see her.
What happened at that time? She only remembered that she and Teng Yuanye entered the house, and she had no memory after that.
Did she tell him? Did he know that Qi Jinnuo had lied to him?
