Chapter 243 Past, betrayal

Guo Hongying, Chu Ming and Luo Hui didn't understand why Bian Hanhai wanted to thank them. All three of them knew their limits, so they looked at Yu Wanqing and pricked up their ears, wanting to listen to gossip.

Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "It's just a small favor. Don't dwell on it in the future. Besides, I remember you said at the time that you would give me your boss as a reward."

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

The atmosphere had already been warmed up, and everyone started chatting and laughing, enjoying the meal very much.

The next morning, Huo Lanci went to the guesthouse to pick up Yu Wanqing to go out and play. Yu Wanqing watched him take her to the mountains and couldn't help asking, "Are you taking me to see the sea?"

Huo Lanci nodded: "I wanted to drive there, but then I thought, let's go through this mountain with you. If we come across wild rabbits or pheasants, we can catch some for snacks."

In fact, he just missed the days when he went into the mountains with Wanqing.

After she leaves tomorrow, I don’t know how long it will take before we can go into the mountains together.

So I cherish the time we can spend together now.

Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "What if we encounter a wild boar? Should we roast a whole pig?"

"It's a bit difficult to roast a whole pig, but it's still possible to roast a whole rabbit." After Huo Lanci finished speaking, he took out a small stone from his pocket and threw it forward.

Yu Wanqing saw the bushes in front of her move. Huo Lanci strode forward and came out a moment later carrying a big white rabbit.

He smiled and looked at Yu Wanqing: "Look, you want to eat roasted rabbit, and it appears."

Yu Wanqing looked at the rabbit and said, "I want to eat roasted whole pig, so shouldn't a big wild boar appear?"

It's as if the rabbit appeared here just because she wanted to eat meat.

Huo Lanci looked at the rabbit that was still struggling in his hand and smiled helplessly: "It seems that you are not destined to die today."

After saying this, he released the big white rabbit whose front leg he had injured.

"My Xiaowu doesn't want to eat roast rabbit today."

Yu Wanqing looked at the big white rabbit disappearing in front of her eyes, took a few steps forward, and twisted Huo Lanci's waist fiercely: "Can we go now, Comrade Huo?"

This guy is clearly teasing himself on purpose.

"Let's go, let's go now." Huo Lanci held her hand and strode into the mountain.

Both of them walked with big steps, as if they would never get tired. It took them forty minutes to reach the destination that would take others an hour to walk.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, looking at the endless sea in the distance and listening to the sound of the waves, Yu Wanqing instantly felt much more cheerful.

She said: "The sea is so beautiful now."

After a few decades, many coastlines have been overdeveloped and have lost their original beauty.

Before she was reborn after the accident, the Japanese had already begun to ravage the sea.

She said: "Ah Ci, I have always believed that nature knows how to repay. No matter how we treat them, they will repay us in the same way, or even in a more brutal way."

In another parallel world, when the Japanese ignored everything and harmed the sea, they had already become a fuse.

Huo Lanci didn't understand why Wan Qing had such an emotion, but he agreed with what Wan Qing said: "Nature really knows how to repay."

"Good or bad, it will remember it in its own way." Huo Lanci pulled Yu Wanqing towards the sea, saying as he walked, "On my first mission, I saved a little wolf."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wanqing couldn't help but look at Huo Lanci.

He looked back at her with a smile: "You heard it right, it's a wolf cub."

"I rescued it from an abandoned trap, treated its wounds, and then released it back into the forest." At this point, Huo Lanci's eyes flashed with a smile: "You never thought that a teenager like me would be so naive to run to save a wolf."

In fact, he had only one thought at the time, that is, the wolf cub was not very aggressive to him, so he was willing to reach out and save it.

If it had been a full grown wolf, he would have killed it without hesitation.

Yu Wanqing nodded: "I really didn't expect you to be so kind. If the girls in the compound knew about this, they would probably go crazy."

They are not even as good as a wolf cub.

Huo Lanci laughed when he heard this.

"Sometimes, humans are really no better than wolves." When he said this, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "During that mission, a traitor appeared in our team."

"I narrowly escaped death at the hands of my teammates."

This was also the biggest stain in his life. His most trusted comrade-in-arms pushed him into the abyss of death, and he almost became a corpse.

He said: "At the last moment, it was the wolf cub and the wolf pack that came to save me."

At this point, he looked at Yu Wanqing and said, "They were the ones who led me and the few remaining comrades out of the forest."

"They are Bai Qingshan, Bian Hanhai and others. We have been fighting side by side since we were teenagers until now."

Yu Wanqing also found it incredible: "So, they call you the Wolf King, in addition to your strong combat ability, is there a reason for this incident?"

Huo Lanci hummed: "There is indeed a reason for this."

Who could have imagined that one day while on a mission, he would be rescued by a group of wolves.

What was even more unbelievable was that this group of wolves led the way for them.

Huo Lanci pulled Yu Wanqing to sit on the sand by the sea. He looked at the waves coming up not far away and murmured in a low voice: "So, I think some people are really worse than a wolf."

"There are many people like this." Yu Wanqing leaned her head on Huo Lanci's shoulder: "So, you don't need many friends, just one or two close friends are enough."

She looked at Ah Ci with a smile and said, "You are luckier than many people. You have several comrades who are willing to sacrifice their lives for you."

Huo Lanci nodded: "I still have someone I can give my life to."

“So, I am really happier than many people.”

He recalled what he had learned from a phone call with his father some time ago: someone had been taken away from the compound, and his wife had immediately published an announcement in the newspaper to sever ties with the family.

There are countless cases of children suing their fathers and then severing ties with them in order to protect their own safety.

During those years, he had brothers who would stand by him through thick and thin, people with whom he could confide his heart and even his life, and wise parents.

Really happier than many people.

"So, now I especially cherish everyone around me." Huo Lanci couldn't help but tremble with fear when he thought of the last time Bai Qingshan almost lost his life.

He has lost many comrades over the years and really doesn't want to see anything happen to them now.

If possible, he hoped that no one would be missing until they retreated.

"Xiaowu, when Mr. Kang suggested that you join the army, I was actually very scared."
