Chapter 45: I hope to be seen by you
Yu Ze glanced back at her and whispered, "Have you forgotten what day it is today?"
After saying that, seeing that Yu Qingmeng still looked like she couldn't remember, he sighed helplessly: "Forget it, didn't you say you wanted me to play with you? Where are we going?"
Yu Qingmeng reached out and grabbed Yu Ze's sleeve, smiled at Xu Jingzhe and Li Beichuan, and explained: "I'll take my brother to check in, you guys talk first..."
After saying that, Yu Qingmeng forcefully dragged Yu Ze out of the bedroom. When passing by the living room, Ayin looked at Yu Ze who suddenly appeared from the bedroom and was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a moment.
Walking out of the room and into the hotel corridor, Yu Ze suddenly grabbed her and said, "I've already done it."
He pulled a room card from his pocket and shook it gently.
Yu Qingmeng reached out and grabbed his room card, hurriedly led Yu Ze to his own room, and closed the door.
"What's wrong?" Yu Ze seemed to notice something was wrong with Yu Qingmeng and asked with some concern.
After ensuring that there was no one watching outside the door through the peephole and the miniature detector poking out from the crack in the door, Yu Qingmeng slowly turned around and told Yu Ze what had happened in the past few days.
After Yu Qingmeng explained everything, the only smile left on Yu Ze's face disappeared. He looked at her with complex emotions in his eyes, but they soon turned into anger.
"You know Ye Lingtian has been looking for you! You still have to show up to negotiate with him. Xiao Meng, we are not so poor that we can't even afford a ticket!"
Yu Ze was a little worried, so he took out the flying detector from the special space and threw it out of the window, conducting a comprehensive scan of the entire hotel.
"Do you really want to help Xu Jingzhe save Alie?" Yu Ze asked coldly, seeming angry.
Yu Qingmeng didn't think much about it and shook her head: "He already knows my true identity. Although I have damaged his meridians and made him unable to speak, there is still a risk of being exposed."
"So, I have to kill him before Xu Jingzhe and Ye Lingtian rescue him," Yu Qingmeng said, taking a few steps towards Yu Ze. "Li Beichuan will follow Xu Jingzhe and they will leave A Yin to my care, so I called you here."
"So you called me here just to take care of others?" Yu Ze frowned even deeper.
He stood there for a long time before he sighed softly. Yu Ze turned around and looked at him, whispering, "You really don't remember what day it is today?"
Yu Qingmeng thought quickly. After a while, she shook her head and replied, "Is it a very important day?"
"Your birthday," Yu Ze replied.
I thought Yu Ze was so anxious because today was a day for some planned action, but I didn’t expect it was just a birthday.
"It's just a birthday. It doesn't matter if I don't celebrate it this year. I can make it up to it next year." Yu Qingmeng walked to the sofa and sat down, rubbing his eyebrows tiredly.
Yu Ze had heard her say this many times since his parents died. Every year she would say, "I'll make it up to you next year," but when next year came she would say "I'll make it up to you next year."
Yu Ze knew that Yu Qingmeng had forgotten everything in order to fulfill her parents' wishes. Her obsession and persistence had long become distorted, as if as long as it was her own business, it was irrelevant.
"Alie, it was you who ordered it to be delivered to Bai Jichen. You should have been more responsible at that time, and there wouldn't be so many troubles now." Yu Ze sat next to Yu Qingmeng and patted her shoulder.
"Be safe, I'll wait for you to come back." Yu Ze tried not to show his disappointment in front of her. He reached out and gently rubbed Yu Qingmeng's hair, his voice gentle.
This action brought back memories from the past that Yu Qingmeng did not want to recall. Her tears were about to burst out, but she forced them back.
Some vague yet very clear memories emerged in my mind.
Like Yu Qingmeng, Yu Ze possesses the genes of a superior person. He is gifted and is the most suitable candidate to be the leader. Yu Ze is very smart. No matter how things develop, he has the ability to turn them back to their original track.
Even though he possesses such an astonishing IQ, he is still willing to die to protect Yu Qingmeng.
Yu Qingmeng has always been aware that she does not have much ability to lead the lower class to resist. She does not have the excellent brain power like Yu Ze, nor does she have Yu Ze's coordination. She only has martial arts and charges into battle like a reckless man.
Before she met Ye Lingtian, she often clung to her brother and asked him to take her out to play.
Her parents had decided long ago that her brother would be the next leader of Scorpion Tail, with Wuming as his assistant, while she would be responsible for handling any difficult disputes and conflicts for her brother.
Her brother often took her out to play secretly. Thinking back on it now, the intimacy they had at that time was like inhaling a large amount of glass dust. Every time she thought about it, it would sting so much that she couldn't breathe.
Yu Qingmeng came back to her senses from the nostalgic memories. She looked at Yu Ze. Although he was no longer the same person, a trace of warmth still arose in her heart.
"Okay, be careful even if you're alone. If anything unexpected happens, take Ayin back to the base immediately. Don't worry about me."
Hearing Yu Qingmeng's words, Yu Ze reached out and tapped her forehead hard: "How can a brother run away with someone else and not care about his sister's life or death?"
"How about I go with you? That way I can take care of you," Yu Ze asked softly.
Yu Qingmeng rejected him directly.
Yu Ze has strong combat capabilities. Even though he has not been out many times and has not participated in many missions, it is still extremely outstanding for him to be able to do this with the genes of an inferior person.
Although she was reluctant to admit it, the gap created by genes was huge and could not be crossed no matter how hard the inferior people tried.
Yu Qingmeng reached out and took his hand for the first time, and her voice became gentle, "Brother, my only wish now is that you are safe and that nothing happens to you."
Seeing her rare gentleness, Yu Ze's face turned red, and he turned his head away shyly: "Okay, since you said so, if there is anything, I will take A Yin away."
"But there's one thing I need to make clear." Yu Ze turned and looked at her, "You did a lot of things for that boy that went against your own choices. Although I'm very opposed to you two being together, but..."
But when you are with Xu Jingzhe, you have the shadow of your past.
Yu Ze didn't say the rest of the words. He looked at Yu Qingmeng with a bitter smile: "In short, no matter what decision you make, I will support you. But please remember, Xiaomeng, Wuming has always been your backer."
"No matter how the mountains collapse or how the tsunami hits, I will always be by your side"
After saying that, Yu Ze took out the birthday gift that he had prepared long ago from the special space.
It was a red box, decorated with sunflowers and gloomy grass.
After opening the box, he immediately saw a handmade rag doll. The doll looked a bit like a smaller version of Yu Ze, with a red bow on its chest.
When Yu Qingmeng was eighteen years old, Yu Ze prepared this gift. Originally, he wanted her to pay more attention to him, but now this wish has changed.
"I wish that Xiao Meng, who is now 22 years old, can achieve all her dreams, have a smooth road ahead, and everything she does will go smoothly. May she be forever happy and free from worries."
His own wish, “I hope to be seen by you,” was missing from the wish.
