Chapter 411: Humans Are Not Ostriches
Lu Sinian was breathing heavily, and when he finally caught his breath he suddenly came to his senses: Gu Feihan was wrong in many ways, but he was right about one thing: nothing was more important than Xiaoli's safety.
But where would she go? However, both Zheng Bo and Ling Yicheng replied that Su Xiaoli had not contacted them.
Did he go to Country C if he didn't go back to Hong Kong Island? Or did he go back to Beijing? The two people panicked after receiving the call, and immediately sent out all their manpower and contacted all their connections to take action.
While Zheng Bo was investigating in Hong Kong Island, Lu Sinian flew directly back to the capital, but she was not at home.
Zhang Yun and James were also confused.
"Why did you come back without saying hello? I forgot to save food for you in advance." Zhang Yun asked puzzledly.
"It's okay, I've eaten. I just came back to get something." Lu Sinian concealed his emotions and tried to speak in a calm tone.
"Didn't Li come back with you? I missed her so much." James tugged at the corner of Lu Sinian's clothes.
Lu Sinian gently touched his little head and said in a soft voice, "She will be back soon."
I didn't dare tell them that Xiaoli was missing.
After persuading Zhang Yun and James to go back and rest, Lu Sinian looked out the window at the dark night, his eyes filled with confusion.
She is the most obedient little Li, she never runs around - he forced himself to think so.
He felt his head was dizzy and about to explode.
Thank God, the next afternoon, Lu Sinian received a call from Oscar.
"Why did Li come to Yinglan alone? What happened?" Oscar's voice was anxious.
Lu Sinian jumped up instantly, "She contacted you?!"
"No, the castle's steward informed me that she didn't look well. I'm on my way there."
"Tell the housekeeper to keep an eye on her and make sure she's safe. I'll book a flight right away."
It's good to find someone.
Lu Sinian let out a sigh and sat down on the chair.
After hanging up the phone, he quickly called Zheng Bo.
I didn't dare tell my grandfather about this matter at all, and just asked Zheng Bo to investigate it privately.
Zheng Bo felt relieved and his speech became incoherent. He just kept repeating, "It's good that I have found the person. It's good that I have found the person."
Just as Lu Sinian was about to leave, he paused and called Ling Yicheng.
The outgoing call was quickly picked up.
"Have you found the person?" Ling Yicheng's voice was panicked and his tone was urgent.
"She's in Yinglan." Lu Sinian frowned slightly, spoke briefly, and hung up the phone without saying another word.
He couldn't sleep for the whole night. Putting himself in her shoes, he realized that Xiao Li could run away in such disgust and panic... He was afraid that Gu Feihan's secret surveillance of her had been exposed.
Lu Sinian took a deep breath and walked out of the room quickly.
Su Xiaoli stared at the ceiling silently. She didn't get any rest on the plane. She was awakened by nightmares every time she took a nap.
The tinnitus is severe and a buzzing sound rushes into the eardrum.
All the memories of the two people suddenly came out and flew into the air.
Time was reversing madly, and all I could see was Gu Feihan's face, defiant, gentle, playful, clean... All the scenes about him flashed rapidly before my eyes.
She really didn't understand why Gu Feihan did this. Why did his heart suddenly become so obscure and incomprehensible?
Gu Feihan, the person who gave her the deepest and greatest sense of security, turned out to be the person who destroyed her sense of security the most.
The room was deathly silent. She felt more helpless than ever before. The light in her eyes disappeared in the darkness, and even the oxygen became thinner.
Oscar came back in a hurry and stood outside her door, holding the dinner tray for a long time, but did not dare to knock on the door.
He put the tray on the small table by the door.
A day later, Lu Sinian arrived.
Neither of them dared to go in. They just listened for the slight noises in the room, hoping that nothing else would happen to her.
Three days later, Su Xiaoli left the room.
The faint light of the early morning was crystal clear and fragmented, making her face look even more haggard. Her face was as pale as paper, as if she had been seriously ill.
The two men opposite suppressed their uneasiness and forced a smile at her: "Good morning."
Su Xiaoli's reaction was a little slow, as if she had forgotten where she was. She was a little slow, and finally seemed to wake up, "Good morning."
For breakfast, she had her favorite barbecued pork buns and white porridge. Oscar also brought her a plate of freshly-cooked scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
Su Xiaoli stared at the breakfast in a daze.
"Xiao Li, at least eat something." Lu Sinian tried hard to suppress his sour and swollen emotions and advised softly.
Su Xiaoli put the food into her mouth stiffly, put down the spoon after a while, and said calmly: "Let's go back to the capital."
She misses her mother.
Lu Sinian frowned and hesitated.
After returning to the capital, Gu Feihan will definitely come to disturb Xiaoli again.
"How about going back to Hong Kong Island first?" he asked tentatively.
With the power of the Lu family in Hong Kong Island, he will not let Gu Feihan see Xiao Li again.
Su Xiaoli shook her head. "I won't hide anymore. I am not an ostrich. I still have many important things to do. I also have you guys."
Escaping is the easiest way to deal with things, but also the most cowardly way.
She is not a wimp.
She has experienced life and death and faced the deepest pain in her heart, but she did not escape.
But even during that darkest time, Gu Feihan was with her.
The images of those days were shaking and broken, but countless details suddenly jumped out, Gu Feihan's hug, Gu Feihan's soft words, Gu Feihan's...
Su Xiaoli thought she had calmed down, but when she thought of this, her nose started to feel sore and her eyes turned red.
My body felt like there was a big hole in it, and the cold wind was blowing into the hole in my chest, and my limbs couldn't help but shiver from the cold.
Lu Sinian's face became extremely ugly, and a murderous look flashed in his eyes.
Oscar quickly took out a tissue and gave it to her.
Su Xiaoli quickly wiped away her tears. Even if Gu Feihan was not here this time, she hoped she could do the same.
Say goodbye to the self who once fell in love.
She thought she could do it.
Su Xiaoli used all her willpower to resist the pain.
The three of them sat in the restaurant for a while.
Lu Sinian looked at the stubborn Su Xiaoli worriedly, and finally nodded.
The two accompanied Su Xiaoli back to the capital, and Ling Yicheng was already waiting at home.
Su Xiaoli did a few things silently, and then she handed two boxes to Ling Yicheng.
Ling Yicheng opened the small box and took a look. It was the jade glass hairpin with phoenix pattern.
His hands trembled and he froze.
"Please help me return it to Aunt Lin."
Although Ling Yicheng didn't know why Xiao Li suddenly disliked Gu Feihan so much, he knew that she would definitely feel uncomfortable if she went to the Gu family at this time.
Ling Yicheng nodded silently and asked softly, "Is there anything else you need to bring?"
Su Xiaoli was silent for a while. "Thank you all for your love and care. If you ask why, the answer is in the other box."
Once a person indulges in his own weakness, he will continue to be weak, and will fall down on the street, on the ground, or even lower than the ground in front of everyone. - Milan Kundera
