Chapter 80
Liuhuacu woke up very early.
It’s not because I’m attached to my bed or anything like that, it’s just that I have a shallow sleep and am used to sleeping less.
Dream is not a warm word to him. A night that is too long will only make him fall into the vortex of nightmares.
Subconsciously observing the environment he was in, he saw that the director of the orphanage, Mr. Zhong Huai, was still drinking in the hall. As a result, when he stood up, his elbow knocked the water glass next to him down.
There was no clear sound, but the man's expression was like "It's over!"
Zhong Huai quickly cleaned up the broken pieces of the water cup, ran out of the house with the empty wine bottle, picked up a broom and started sweeping the fallen leaves.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Liuhuaqi's lips.
Then the consciousness followed the fog to another direction.
Lin Zhipei seemed to be having a nightmare. She was sweating profusely and mumbling a few words from time to time.
Liu Huaqi had certainly thought seriously about how he should treat Lin Zhipei, who had not done anything treacherous in this life. If it was the same as in his previous life, the worst that could happen was that he would just stay away from her.
But he didn't expect that Lin Zipei and the senior in the department had such a relationship. The senior in the department also had a very good attitude towards Lin Zipei and seemed to have plans to have a deeper relationship with her.
It is impossible to say that he does not feel resentful about the things in his past life. Liu Huaqi is very clear that there must be something strange behind Lin Zhipei's betrayal.
Lin Zhipei told him the truth about his parents being sacrificed.
He also said that he really wanted to be his friend.
At that time, Liu Huaqi had lost his ability to judge, his reason was swallowed up by anger, and he just wanted those who betrayed him to die.
But he finally let Lin Zhipei go.
Who would have thought that in the end, Lin Zhipei would choose to commit suicide.
Is there another purpose? Or is it really out of guilt?
Lin Zhipei shot himself without hesitation. What was he thinking at that moment?
Liuhuaqi wants to find out the reason why Lin Zhipei betrayed him, no matter whether the result is good or bad.
Perhaps only in this way can he let go.
Only children see only black and white. If we really start from the beginning, Liu Huaci is the most unforgivable person.
In this rebirth, he chose a completely different path.
Without leaving the secret text, he became friends with the senior students in the department, won the mid-year competition and successfully entered the mysterious Lingyan class.
Now I have met Lin Zhipei about four years earlier, and many important things have changed dramatically.
The unknown future calmed Liu Huaqi's uneasy heart.
Lin Zhipei's mumbling finally stopped. What kind of nightmare could have made him look so terrified in his sleep?
Unfortunately, he couldn't hear clearly what Lin Zhipei said.
At this time, the sound of footsteps was heard from the next room. Liu Huaqi subconsciously avoided the senior in the department and did not try to check on his condition.
I got up earlier than I should have for morning exercise at school. Did I not sleep well?
The senior in the department got up normally, changed his clothes, and then left the room to wash up.
Liuhuaqi also sat up from the bed. It was boring to lie down, so he might as well go out and find something to do.
Just as he walked into the hall, he heard Xi Siling and Zhong Huai in the fog starting to discuss things related to him.
When Zhong Huai said that he could tell me about the child Liuhuacui, the boy's heart rose to his throat.
What would the seniors in the department say about him? Is there something about him that is annoying but he just doesn't realize it?
Liuhuaqi could even hear his own heartbeat.
"...I mean Lan Yi and Li Ke both like that kid, and the atmosphere in the dormitory is also very good."
Liuhuaqi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. No bad news was the best news.
Seniors Li Ke and Lan Yi obviously occupy a very important position in the hearts of the department seniors. As long as he is not disliked by them, the department seniors may not dislike him.
But he did feel a little regretful. It would be great if he could know what the department senior himself thought.
Liu Huaqi really wanted to know what the seniors in the department thought of him.
The senior student in the department talked to Mr. Zhong Huai about the matter of Louli Village again. Mr. Zhong Huai seemed to be of great importance. Most people with special abilities had only heard of the existence of zombie puppets and dead babies, but Zhong Huai acted as if he had seen them with his own eyes. He was very dissatisfied with Xi Siling's attempt to lightly cover it up.
Liu Huaqi was thinking about whether it was possible to obtain information about Mr. Zhong Huai on the Alien Network, but this was just his bad habit of wanting to investigate people around him who might pose a threat. Although his identity was confidential on the Alien Network, the specific things he had done on the Alien Network were not.
It would be better to focus on Lin Zhipei.
"Xiao Qi! You got up so early. Did you sleep well last night?"
Xi Siling and Zhong Huai chatted outside for a long time, and Liu Huaqi also stood in the hall for a long time. It was not until the sun was almost risen that the young man heard the voice coming from behind him.
Teacher Tang came out to open the door, and seeing Liu Huaqi standing there in a daze, he greeted him with concern.
Liuhuaqi turned around and answered with a smile.
"You slept well, Mr. Tang. You want to prepare breakfast? I'll help you."
——
After chatting with Zhong Huai for a while, I heard Teacher Tang Yang calling us to have breakfast.
Xi Siling returned to the house and greeted Liu Huaqi, then took the children to wash their hands, and found that Lin Zhipei had not come yet.
"77, you supervise them washing their hands. Don't just do it half-heartedly. I'll go get Pepe."
When I arrived at Lin Zhipei's room and was about to knock on the door, it was opened.
The boy's eyes were dark and his expression was very bad, but when he saw that it was Xi Siling, he immediately smiled.
"Brother Si Ling! Good morning!"
Xi Siling knew from his condition that he must not have slept well at night.
How can the quality of sleep be good when living in such an environment? Most likely, I had nightmares.
"Didn't you sleep well, Pepe? Or are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Zhipei immediately shook her head, fearing that it was Si Ling's 'misunderstanding', "No, no, I was so happy to see Brother Si Ling! I didn't sleep much all night!"
Xi Siling couldn't help but recall the memory of what she saw last night.
The boy returned to the orphanage with the mentality of saying goodbye and came to see himself.
He didn't think he would be saved, and until now he was still afraid that his brother Si Ling would worry about him.
Xi Siling reached out and rubbed the boy's head like he did when they were children.
"lie."
Lin Zhipei's pupils suddenly shrank, and the breath she inhaled was held in her lungs and she forgot to exhale.
Yes...Brother Si Ling can always tell whether I am lying or not, and it hasn’t changed even after growing up.
The touch on his head was so warm that he wanted to cry.
If at that time... I had chosen to stay...
"Brother Si Ling..."
"Why did you have a nightmare? Tell me about it."
Lin Zhipei realized that she could have two answers.
Should we continue to gloss over the situation or try to attract as much attention as possible...
But he had to think about whether his actions would drag Brother Si Ling into the abyss. Hua Hegu was a ruthless man. He would be afraid of Mr. Zhong Huai, but would not take a young man seriously.
"I..."
Lin Zhipei felt that her voice was trembling.
After returning, Hua Hegu will definitely ask him to describe his experiences of the past few days. If he finds anything wrong, he will definitely be punished.
What should he do?
Thinking is just a matter of a moment, but it seems as long as the universe.
He didn't want to embarrass Brother Si Ling or even hurt him. Besides, even if he did it, Brother Si Ling might not understand.
Forget it...
"During the time since you left, I kept asking Mr. Zhong Huai when you could come back and tell me about the interesting things that happened in your new home."
As soon as I saw Lin Zhipei's struggling and flickering eyes, I knew that he must be hesitating.
Needless to say, she was hesitating, but soon the struggle turned into determination, which was not a good thing. So before Lin Zipei could answer, Xi Siling interrupted her at the speed of light.
"It's a pity that you never came back. Mr. Zhong Huai went to see you and said you were fine, but I still want to hear it from you in person."
Xi Siling almost fed the food into Lin Zipei's mouth.
"Pepe, are you really... okay?"
Why do you ask this? Is it because you noticed something?!
Lin Zhipei's determination was instantly shattered. Didn't he want to leave Huahe Valley? Of course not!
He dreamed of escaping from that damn place.
Can Brother Si Ling save me? Can I really be saved?
"I...I..."
"Seniors from the department, and Lin Zhipei, Teacher Tang asked me to call you to dinner."
The voice came suddenly, startling both Xi Siling and Lin Zipei.
Xi Siling was going crazy in her heart, why did it have to happen at such a critical moment!
Lin Zhipei smiled and chose not to talk about her hesitation just now, "Let's go, Brother Si Ling, and have breakfast."
It's a failure...
Xi Siling was also helpless. He couldn't blame 77, so he could only think of a solution later.
The three of them returned to the restaurant one after another, and Tang Yang was getting angry at Zhong Huai.
It turned out that the fragments of the broken cup by Zhong Huai were discovered by Teacher Tang.
"You said you broke it, and that's fine! But you also secretly hid the pieces?! Are you a child?!"
"Ouch! I was wrong! I was really wrong! I was so wrong!!!"
When Zhong Huai ran away, he did not forget to take two buns from the dining table. Tang Yang threw the clean metal spoon in his hand directly, hitting Zhong Huai's head accurately.
The children are used to it. The older ones help the younger ones to serve the food, just watching the show.
Surprisingly, the children also served porridge to the three of them and set out the tableware.
"Big brothers, eat more!"
They should have said this. Xi Siling smiled and rubbed the child's head, "Thank you for still thinking about your brothers."
Lin Zhipei also very tactfully praised the children, but Liu Huaqi was at a loss. In the end, he could only raise his hand awkwardly and then put it down, and could only say thank you.
After receiving praise and compliments, the children dispersed with satisfaction and started to eat breakfast.
Liuhuacui drank porridge while thinking about what had just happened.
Is there any problem with Lin Zhipei's adoptive family? The question from the department senior is actually very targeted.
In the previous life, when he was still friends with Lin Zhipei, he said that he was adopted by his uncle, but he didn't say what his uncle's name was.
Maybe I can find out who Lin Zhipei's uncle is? Liu Huaqi thought silently.
"Brother Si Ling, do you want some flower rolls?"
"Eat it, dear."
"Where's Brother Pepe?"
"Only Brother Si Ling can call me Pepe! Little naughty boy."
"No, no."
"What about this brother? Do you want to eat flower rolls?"
Liu Huaqi finally came back to his senses.
"No thanks."
