Chapter 316: Extremely Hot. Going to the Base Again
When the call stopped, Lao Chu handed the phone to the black-clad bodyguard beside him and rubbed his face vigorously with both hands.
The sound of a door opening was heard behind me, and the sounds of a pair of high heels and several leather shoes walking entered the room at the same time.
The next second, Situ Hanxin's sarcastic voice rang out in the room, "Brother Chu, when it came to asking me for a child, why were you so reluctant? Did you know that the people who wanted to pursue me in the entire Luocheng base could line up at the gate?"
Lao Chu let go of his hands that were rubbing his face, stretched his shoulders, and returned to his expressionless face, "I want to go back to my room and sleep."
"Hey, you only knew how to create before, but now you sleep all day and never think about spending more time with me." Situ Hanxin clenched her fingers, but still said in a sarcastic tone, "Do you believe it or not, I will let the killers from City C kill your precious daughter right now?"
Old Chu stood up suddenly, knocking over the chair he was sitting on, slamming it to the ground with a bang, his eyes turned gloomy, "You dare."
Situ Hanxin was not afraid at all. Instead, she walked closer to him with a smile and said, "If you are nice to me, I will keep her alive. Also, you can't run away again, you are not allowed to lobby my people, and you are not allowed to commit suicide again."
After saying that, she slowly moved closer to his chest, and finally threw herself into his arms, not forgetting to give the order, "Hold me tight."
Old Chu suppressed his nausea and mechanically raised his hands to hug the femme fatale in front of him.
But until now, he doesn't want to die at all. He committed suicide because Situ Hanxin didn't allow him to contact Chu An.
He was afraid that the woman would repeat her old tricks and harm Xiao An, so he had to use such extreme measures to ensure Xiao An's safety.
Now it seems that she still has a bit of rationality, so let's continue playing. He has wronged so many girls in his life, and he deserves some retribution.
On the other side, Chu An put down the phone. He was happy after not contacting Lao Chu. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
She comforted herself that now was not the time for Lao Chu to die, he was living well now, and perhaps the timeline had changed from the moment she killed Big Eyes.
Am I sick again?
Gu Ye came over and pulled Chu An, who was sitting on the ground unconsciously, up, "You have contacted your uncle, why are you still not happy?"
Chu An shook his head. Old Chu was still the same Old Chu, but it just felt weird. The room seemed a little clean and empty, while Old Chu's previous room was basically so messy that there was no place to step. There were paintbrushes, dyes, paper balls, shelves and canvases everywhere.
Perhaps the natural disaster left him with less time to create.
His expression also seemed a little unnatural, and his eyes kept drifting to the side, as if someone was watching him.
Maybe it's that "stepmother".
Isn’t it said on the Internet that a stepmother and her ex-wife’s daughter will often compete for favor?
And at the last moment when the video was closed, Lao Chu's eyes suddenly became lonely and his right hand shook even more violently.
He may have injured his right arm in the natural disaster, and he has been receiving treatment so he has no time to contact me. Now his right arm is healed, but he can no longer draw, so there is no drawing board or anything like that in the house. He said he was teaching at school just to comfort himself. In fact, he has become decadent, and it was with the encouragement of his stepmother that he contacted me to let me know that he was safe.
Chu An was almost convinced by his own association, and suddenly five words flashed in his mind: "Infinite Alliance".
These are the five words projected on the door panel behind Lao Chu. Although they are not very clear, they can be recognized. It is not an alliance hanging in someone's house, but it is not an organization.
Chu An is now very grateful for her good memory, which allows her to clearly remember every detail in Lao Chu's house, including Lao Chu's expressions. But she can't analyze these expressions, and can only describe them as "weird".
Lao Chu once said that if you can't figure something out, don't think about it now, the answer will come out slowly. At least now we have contacted Lao Chu and know where he is. After these extremely hot days, he will come back.
Thinking of this, she sent a message to Lao Chu, asking him to video chat with her once a day, and no refusal was allowed. Ten minutes later, the other party replied: OK.
Chu An stretched himself lazily. The temperature outside had reached 59 degrees today, so he had to go to the base to check on Zhuona and Yin Tianlin. Although he respected their choice and let them live in the base, he couldn't just ignore them.
In the past, Lao Chu had no relatives, and she didn’t understand the joy of visiting relatives during festivals and other occasions.
During the Chinese New Year, Li Qing was urged by his mother to go to this uncle's house today and that aunt's house tomorrow. Although he was reluctant, he always came back with red envelopes to show off.
"Gu Ye, will you visit relatives during the Chinese New Year?"
"Ah?" Gu Ye scratched his head, "Why do you ask this?"
"It doesn't matter if it's not New Year's Day, but who do you visit during normal times?"
"My mother's family has cut off contact because of Gu Tianming. Gu Tianming's family doesn't like my mother, so they rarely visit. They only go back to see my grandparents occasionally during the Chinese New Year. But my grandfather passed away five years ago and he has never been back. As for my aunts and uncles, they have even less contact. Only Gu Tianming will send them money on time."
A smile slowly emerged at the corner of Chu An's mouth. Maybe it was because he was in a good mood after contacting Lao Chu today. Suddenly, he felt more closely connected with this world.
She hurriedly left a message to Mou Ci, "I have contacted Lao Chu at the Los Angeles base. If it is convenient for you, please help verify Lao Chu's identity information and then transfer all the contact information Lao Chu sent her."
The phone immediately received a reply, "Congratulations, OK."
It was rare that Mou Ci responded promptly, so he couldn't help but send another message, "I remember you said that the last mission might pass through City C. Have you completed the mission?"
Mou Ci replied, "The last mission failed, so I couldn't come to see you. But in a month, I will join other troops to carry out that mission again. If it's convenient, I will come to see you."
Chu An thought that he had to wait for Lao Chu anyway, so he agreed, "Okay, I'll wait for you in City C. I hope everything goes well."
Putting down the phone, she and Gu Ye hurriedly packed the things they wanted to bring to Zhuona and Yin Tianlin.
Cooling fans, parasols, cooling patches, cooling spray, snake grass water and clean mineral water, as well as the summer-cooling soup that Wang Ce had recently prepared.
When she was getting the summer-relief soup, Shen Xun used his mental power to tell her that a breeze had just blown through the space.
Following the last drizzle, another natural phenomenon occurred.
[Congratulations, Xiao An, you should be well soon. ]
Her concern was about the family and friends she failed to save in her previous life. Now she was sure they were all safe. At least they were alive at this moment, so she naturally felt relieved.
"Thank you, but I won't take it lightly. By the way, have you heard of the Infinite Alliance?"
[No, maybe it is a newly established organization. ]
Chu An thought about asking Li Qing when he went to see him in the evening, so he cut off the mental connection.
The two drove to the base. The sunlight was bright and dazzling, penetrating every inch of the land. The road surface at this time was completely different from the previous two days.
The road began to crack, as if it would break at the touch of a finger. The green that had grown tenaciously before turned into a curved dark brown worm, its vitality completely stripped away by the scorching sun.
In this kind of weather, you can no longer see a single figure.
