Chapter 239 The Bad Duck

The duck took two days off, packed his homework, and arrived in Dallas on a private plane.

As soon as Komnenos walked out of the shooting competition venue, he received a call from Xiaoya.

"Comnenus, I'll wait for you outside the door."

The girl hung up after she finished speaking.

For a moment Komnenos thought he was hallucinating.

"I got a call?"

"Yes, you received a call." The subordinate answered and asked, "Is there another incident in Yemen?"

Komnenos said nothing, but looked out the door.

This look——

"Why are there so many people?" Komnenos' face darkened.

The men immediately turned around and contacted the agent in the square outside the door.

The other party’s answer was: “There is a coffee brand doing a promotion.”

"Let the other party drive them away." Komnenos said coldly.

But just as he finished speaking, the phone rang again.

"Komnenos, haven't you seen me yet?" the duckling asked on the other end.

Komnenos gritted his teeth.

The kids are becoming more and more difficult to deal with.

"I am sitting and waiting for you, Komnenos," the duckling continued.

Obviously, this was a deliberate hint to him as a screening condition!

The duck hung up the phone again.

Komnenos clutched his phone tightly, raised his eyes and scanned the parasols erected in the square again. There were about thirty people sitting under the parasols.

About twenty people with different body shapes were eliminated.

There are about seven or eight left.

There are those with blond hair, black hair, and red hair...

There are also people wearing peaked caps and straw hats.

Komnenos walked into the crowd without thinking.

He was tall and had several men with ferocious looks with him. As soon as he entered the crowd, people immediately made way for him.

At this time, Komnenos' cell phone rang again.

"Komnenos, if you plan to walk up to each person and identify them one by one, that's cheating." The duckling reminded on the other end.

Komnenos: "..."

Very good, it's bubbling with badness.

He was indeed thinking that since there were only a few people left after screening, wouldn’t it be clear if he just looked at them one by one?

Komnenos could only stop and ask the person on the other end of the phone: "Is this a test?"

As he asked, he continued to look at the people sitting there.

Tried to figure out who was on the phone... but all three were on the phone.

He looked at the three people, then looked again and again... Finally, his gaze moved and suddenly fell at the feet of a person.

The man sat with his back to the camera, wearing a cap, a baggy T-shirt and overalls. He looked more like a teenager than a girl.

But there was a schoolbag at "his" feet.

"Sir?" The subordinate found that the boss seemed to be frozen.

Komnenos slowly came back to his senses and asked, "It should be class time now, right?"

The subordinate was a little stunned: "Really? I haven't been to school for many years..."

Komnenos finally walked towards the figure: "Demon?"

"Congratulations, you guessed it right." The duckling looked back.

Even if they didn't meet, they would still make video calls. Komnenos lowered his eyes. It was indeed a very familiar face.

"The call hasn't been hung up yet. Where's your cell phone?" Komnenos asked.

The duckling patted his trouser pockets and pointed to his ears.

Komnenos took off her baseball cap and tucked her hair back from her ears, finally revealing the Bluetooth headset underneath.

Komnenos snorted, "No wig."

The duck raised his face and smiled: "I lied to you, am I bad enough?"

Komnenos: "..."

The duckling bent down, picked up the bag and handed it over, saying, "But I also gave Komnenos a little back door."

Komnenos instinctively reached out to take it, and then he heard the duckling say again: "I'm leaving now. I'll come back and have dinner with Komnenos."

What a familiar routine.

Komnenos' eyelids jumped, and he unzipped his schoolbag: "Inside..."

"It's four sets of papers."

“…”

The duck stood up from his chair and brought a cup of coffee to Komnenos.

Komnenos didn't answer, but grabbed her collar and asked, "Are you going to Princeton again this time?"

The duck shook his head: "No, I'm going to Atlanta."

"Take two men with you," said Komnenos.

The duck nodded: "Okay."

She agreed so readily that Komnenos didn't know what to say.

Komnenos had said this before, but was rejected.

At that time, most of the people who followed Xiaoya were bodyguards borrowed from Wei Wenjuan. I don't know if the kid was afraid of a fight between the two sides.

"Well, him, and him." The duckling picked two from Komnenos' men.

No shame at all.

But Komnenos was glad that she was not shy.

Komnenos left with Duckling's schoolbag, and Duckling left with his new bodyguard.

After getting in the car, Komnenos called his men and said, "See what she is going to do."

The kid still doesn't know who he went to meet in Princeton.

The protection is so good that Komnenos feels a little jealous.

*

Qin Sui did not go to school in Atlanta, but in Cambridgeshire.

Why did you choose to meet in Atlanta?

Xiaoya got out of the car and looked up to see Qin Sui waiting there.

His expression was even more gloomy and darker than when the duckling first saw him as a child.

The duckling walked toward him, and he walked toward the duckling.

Pausing, Xiaoya asked in a low voice: "Did something happen to Qin Yue?"

Otherwise she couldn't think of any other possibilities.

Qin Sui then smiled, but the gloom in his eyes had not yet faded: "You are so smart."

"Qin Yue broke her leg, and I found many self-harm scars on her body. But no matter how I asked, I couldn't get any results."

The duck was stunned: "Then what can I do?"

Qin Sui continued, "She won't listen to anyone, including me and the psychologist. When she was in primary school in China, she had many friends, but now she has no friend who can comfort her."

The duck thought for a moment and said objectively, "But I can't be her friend."

Making friends requires the right time, people and place.

It’s not that you can have something just because you want it.

"You are at least a girl of similar age to her..."

"Then I'll try." Xiaoya didn't want Qin Sui to be disappointed, but she couldn't lie about things she couldn't guarantee.

Qin Sui then took Xiaoya to a high-end private hospital.

Almost the entire floor of the hospital was emptied, with only one ward having its lights on.

Qin Sui pushed the door open and walked in front. The girl's hoarse voice immediately rang out from inside: "I said, I'm fine, I'm fine! I want to leave here, I want to go back to school! Qin Sui! There's no such thing as a brother like you!"

Qin Sui's expression remained unchanged and he gave up the duckling behind him.

Qin Yue glanced at the duck: “you are the one…”

Qin Sui replied, "Grandpa Zhang's granddaughter."

Perhaps the three words "Grandpa Zhang" took effect, Qin Yue's expression softened instantly.

The duckling looked at her, but it was hard for him to associate her with the image of her holding flowers at the birthday party.

Qin Yue went abroad after graduating from elementary school. I haven't seen her for a long time. She has grown a lot taller and lost a lot of weight. Her cheeks are slightly sunken, there are blue spots under her eyes, her face is pale, and her neck seems like it will break if bent.

She no longer had the domineering attitude.
