But just as Pei Xiqing opened the door, he saw Huihua standing outside holding a piece of meat.
When Huihua saw the weapons in their hands, he immediately got angry, "Brother Duan! What's going on between you and Miss Pei? Do you even consider me a brother?"
He used his big body to block the entrance directly, completely blocking the entrance to the cave.
"If you are brothers, stay here! If I hadn't come to deliver the meat, would you have planned to leave secretly?"
Pei Xiqing sighed, stepped forward and said: "Brother Huihua,
We really have to leave and can't stay here any longer. Brother Duan and I know your kindness and we are grateful to you. It's really..."
"I don't care." Huihua said in a raspy voice, "I don't like to hear what you're saying, and I don't want you to leave. If you leave, I'll immediately go back and pack my things and follow you. Wherever you go, as long as Brother Duan's injury hasn't healed and your issues haven't been resolved, I won't abandon you."
Pei Xiqing: "This..."
She looked back at Duan Xiaolin in embarrassment.
The man chuckled and raised his glasses frame with his fingers. "Huihua, only Xiqing and I can participate in this matter. It's about natural disasters."
Huihua yelled, "I'm not afraid. If I hadn't had you, Brother Duan, helping me back then, I wouldn't be alive today."
"What about Long Yan?" the man asked calmly, even smiling. "If you follow us like this, I can't guarantee your safety. So, are you ready to let Long Yan, who has waited for you for ten years, wait for you for the rest of his life?"
Huihua paused for a moment.
The whole person seemed to be frozen.
He didn't even blink, as if he was caught in some extreme torment and entanglement.
On one hand, he respected Brother Duan as an elder brother, and on the other hand, he felt sorry for Long Yan.
Pei Xiqing then realized that he and Long Yan had been entangled for many years.
No wonder she reacted that way when she appeared in front of Sister Long Yan with the weapon made by Brother Huihua.
Huihua took a long time to say, "I..."
Duan Xiaolin patted his shoulder and said, "Go back. The base is short of manpower right now. No matter how much hatred you still have towards the base, it has been so many years, and it should dissipate. Let the past be the past."
Huihua lowered his head. "It's all that damn base's fault. They insisted that I embezzled the weapons. Everyone blamed me, thinking it was my fault. But only Brother Duan knew where the weapons went and who got them. In that situation, a piece of weapons was worth more than a hundred lives. Damn it, I didn't take it! Even she doesn't trust me, so why should I go back?"
"Some things may be explained clearly after meeting in person."
Huihua: "Is she really still waiting for me?"
Pei Xiqing couldn't help but say, "Yes, Sister Long Yan is still waiting for you. Brother Huihua, please go back soon. The base really needs you."
Huihua stood there, sighing.
Duan Xiaolin pulled her away.
Pei Xiqing took two steps and couldn't help but look back. Seeing that he was still standing there, she couldn't help but ask the man, "Brother Duan, what exactly happened back then?"
"Just as you heard, Huihua did not embezzle the weapons, especially those that were destined for the front lines, which were extremely important," he said. "It simply disappeared overnight."
"Do you know who took it? Whose pocket did it end up in?"
The man was silent for two seconds. "In the hands of the Longyan clan."
Pei Xiqing was surprised: "Huh?"
She was incredulous: "You mean to say that Brother Huihua gave the weapons to Sister Long Yan's people and protected them?"
"He didn't give it to me. Someone from the Longyan clan borrowed it in Longyan's name and never returned it."
Pei Xiqing sighed, "No wonder Brother Huihua wants to leave the base and be independent. He wants to take money even if he does business for the base, and he won't give any discounts or face at all."
"It's hard to judge who was right and who was wrong back then. If they could meet, perhaps some misunderstandings could be resolved."
"Yes, there's still a chance." Pei Xiqing held his hand tightly. "As long as the misunderstanding between them can be resolved, everything will still be possible."
They have a car.
After driving for about ten minutes, the kid squatting on the roof suddenly started shouting.
Pei Xiqing opened the window and asked, "Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you?"
The little one was spinning in circles on the roof.
She realized something and said, "Brother Duan, stop the car."
As soon as the car stopped, Pei Xiqing got out first and saw from a distance a dusty, almost scrapped car driving towards them.
