Chapter 128 Communication between Brothers and Sisters

Chapter 128 Communication between Brothers and Sisters

“Huh~~”

Standing on the deck of the flying boat, breathing the freshest air tens of thousands meters above the ground, and looking at the rising sun half-hidden in the sea of ​​clouds, Chu Yi felt that his soul had been purified.

After stretching her body, she strolled to the side of the ship, folded her arms and rested them on the wooden railing, admiring the scenery around her.

It seems that she has been in a busy state since she came into this world.

When she first arrived, just surviving took all her energy. Life in the orphanage is not easy. The competition among the children is as cruel as the fight between adults.

Every child wants to make his or her life better, but the resources of the orphanage are limited. If you want to benefit yourself, you have to exclude and suppress other children. They may not do anything very bad, but they will unite to isolate children they think are weak, and sometimes even say some innocuous bad words.

It's like they will deliberately make trouble for you when you are completing the task assigned by the dean so that you can't finish it on time. Then they will work together to complete their tasks as quickly as possible.

This is just a small thing. The employees will not blame you if you don't complete it on time. You will just not get the extra rewards during the meal.

Maybe some people think it doesn’t matter, it just exceeded the time limit, not completed.

Then reality will tell you how much the staff's impression of you can determine in a social welfare institution.

When you were young, you might have just done odd jobs in an orphanage, and if you failed to complete the tasks, you would not receive any reward. But when you grow up and need to work hard for your future, you will suddenly realize how important relationships are.

Although the orphanage receives government subsidies, its funds are limited and are barely enough to support the children in the orphanage. When the children grow up and need to go to school, this amount of money is far from enough.

The tuition fees are not difficult to deal with. The schools that the orphanage contacts are all welfare schools and the tuition fees are very low. At the same time, you can also apply for a national loan to advance each student's tuition fees, and then repay them yourself when everyone grows up.

The most important thing is living expenses.

Some welfare schools are boarding schools that provide full coverage of meals and accommodation. These expenses are included in the tuition fees and can be applied for together when applying for a loan. Some are just simple schools that only provide lunch, and students have to take care of breakfast, dinner and accommodation by themselves.

For such schools, loans can only cover tuition fees, not living expenses.

As for why these things are related to daily relationships?

Because whether you want to go to school or find a part-time job while studying, you need a recommendation from the orphanage staff. Ordinary companies would not dare to use child labor casually. Only those that have signed official agreements with orphanages will employ them.

They have the final say on which school you go to. What kind of work you are assigned to naturally depends entirely on their words.

If you don't have a good relationship with them and give them the impression that you are lazy and slacking off, how can you expect to get good conditions?

Chu Yi suffered losses in this regard.

Because they claim to be adults, they cannot play with children, and when facing social workers, they will not act like real children and act cute. When faced with the bullying and trouble from other children, he couldn't bring himself to fight back.

Ultimately, in the eyes of the social workers at the orphanage, she was seen as a quiet, introverted, and procrastinating child.

All in all, it's not very pleasing.

After receiving such an opinion, it is easy to imagine what she will encounter.

After being able to go to school, he was assigned to a school farthest from the orphanage. When I was able to start working, I could only go to places where the wages were low and the distance was far.

More than half of our daily time is spent on the road.

Then her academic performance failed to improve, she did not leave a good impression on her teachers, she could not complete her work well, and her supervisor did not think highly of her.

Even now, Chu Yi still feels sad when he thinks of that kind of life.

She blinked her eyelashes quickly against the gentle breeze, holding back the tears that suddenly welled up in her eyes.

People always say that we should "remember the bitter past and think of the sweet present", but she only felt sad when she thought of what she had experienced. Bitterness is bitterness. Even if there is sweetness, there is a slight astringency in the bitterness.

When she first reincarnated, she still thought that she was a mature adult and that she could live a wonderful life even if she started from scratch. But the reality made her realize that life would not give her any preferential treatment because of her age.

If she didn't have some skills and was mentally mature, I really don't know what kind of person she would become in that situation.

"What are you thinking about?"

Just when Chu Yi was immersed in the past, Gu Jiayan's voice suddenly came from behind him.

She looked in the direction where the sound came from and saw him coming out of the room and walking towards her.

"......"

The young man bathed in the morning light is so elegant and graceful, he is simply a girl killer. The face that resembled his parents made Chu Yi feel dazed for a moment, as if he was back to the day when they first met.

By that time, she had barely adapted to her new life, and relied on her own abilities to make her life a little less tiring. It was just an ordinary weekend, and she met Gu Jiayan, who was brought by her mother to the orphanage to volunteer.

Chu Yi remembered that Gu Jiayan was still young and immature at that time, and his handsome face had not fully grown. He was just a neighboring brother who made people want to get close to him.

As soon as he arrived at the orphanage, he was surrounded by the girls there, who chatted with him.

But he seemed a little frightened at the time and stood in the yard at a loss.

The little Gu Jiayan appeared in Chu Yi's mind, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Gu Jiayan raised his eyebrows in confusion and leaned against the side of the boat, imitating her. "What happy things did you think of?"

"I remember the first time we met. That was the most lame Brother Yan I've ever seen." Turning around, Chu Yi tilted his head and looked at Gu Jiayan and laughed, "He was like a little white rabbit that fell into a wolf's den."

Shocked by her description, Gu Jiayan glanced at her unhappily, "What do you mean by a little white rabbit that fell into a wolf's den? I'm just being polite."

Chu Yi didn't care about his excuses. With his panicked look and darting eyes, who would believe that he was just being polite?

She opened her mouth to say something else, but unfortunately her bad intentions were immediately exposed by Gu Jiayan, who intercepted her halfway and blocked her words.

"I was just wondering why you refused to accept the adoption proposal? You were hiding in the corner and crying, why didn't you want to?"

Although it was used to change the subject, this was indeed the doubt that Gu Jiayan had buried in his heart for many years.

I clearly like the atmosphere in his home and have a good impression of him and his parents, so why did I directly refuse when they proposed to adopt me?

Even without mentioning that they already had a deep relationship at the time, considering the future, wouldn't it be better to accept their adoption?

At least this way she won't hide in a deserted corner and cry because of all the pressure.

At that time, Chu Yi did not give a reason, but just refused silently and firmly. They didn't want to force her, so they could only put the topic aside.

Now that so much time has passed and things and people have changed, he still wants her to tell him in person.

"......"

Faced with this question, Chu Yi did not answer immediately.

She and Gu Jiayan looked at each other, and there was nostalgia for the past in each other's eyes.

After a moment of silence, she said with a faint smile: "Brother Yan, please don't laugh at me or get angry."

Gu Jiayan did not react, but just straightened his expression and pretended to listen attentively.

"To be honest, when I heard that Aunt Gu wanted to adopt me, I was really happy. I almost agreed at that time." Chu Yi retracted his gaze from Gu Jiayan, bent down slightly, and rested his chin on his arms on the railing.

Looking at the sun that was becoming increasingly round in the sky, her expression contained not only nostalgia but also some embarrassment and shyness. Obviously, the original reason must have been very childish, so childish that she feels embarrassed to mention it now.

But since Gu Jiayan asked, she was still prepared to explain it to him clearly.

"But when the words came to my lips, I suddenly thought of my parents. Although I was still young when the accident happened, I always remember the happy life I once had and their love for me."

Chu Yi deliberately used vague terms here. To Gu Jiayan, she might be talking about the parents who were falsely implicated by the police, but in fact, she was talking about her parents in her previous life.

Her life in her first life was truly happy. She had never suffered any hardship from childhood to adulthood, and her life was smooth sailing until the accident happened.

Therefore, in comparison with her second life, she could not forget her original happiness any more, and was never able to completely open her heart to the Gu family's kindness.

I always feel that if I am adopted and have new parents in the legal sense, it would be like "betraying" the parents who once loved me deeply.

Of course, she has come out of it now, and her parents' voice, smile and appearance will always be stored in her memory, giving her the courage to move on. When faced with other people's kindness, she can fully accept it and return the kindness with equal affection.

However, as soon as he said this, Chu Yi felt that something was not right, so he quickly made an explanation.

"This doesn't mean that you guys are mean to me, Brother Yan, I just want to say..."

"I know." Gu Jiayan finally interrupted her, his eyes full of comfort and care, without any blame at all. "I know what you mean. This kind of thing is the same for everyone."

This reason was not too far from his guess, and he suddenly asked it today because he wanted to see if she had completely let it go. But now seeing that she looks a little sad, as a brother I feel a little distressed.

Reaching out his hand and gently patting Chu Yi's head, Gu Jiayan's eyes were full of encouragement, "You have a good talent. If you work hard to practice, it won't be long before you can advance to the Nascent Soul stage. Then you can try divination to find the reincarnation of your parents and see if they are living well."

Chu Yi seemed indifferent to this suggestion. She tidied up her hair that was blown by the wind and said with relief, "No need. I asked Master to help me with divination a long time ago. They have already been reincarnated and their new life is very happy. There is no need for me to disturb them."

This is of course a made-up lie. This is just her body in the system, so how can she have any parents? Her parents in her previous life were still alive, but for some reason, she couldn't predict their situation at all.

Perhaps the barrier between universes is too thick. No matter what vest I try, the hexagram I get is blank.

In the end, she could only pray in her heart, hoping that they could get over the pain and live a good life.

He said this now just to comfort Gu Jiayan who was worried about him, so that he wouldn't have to worry about him all the time.

Seeing that she had really let it go, Gu Jiayan breathed a sigh of relief and said casually, "My parents have also been reincarnated. They are living a happy life and have a very smooth future."

"...Really? That's good." Facing his wounds, Chu Yi didn't know how to respond.

But just talking about this matter, she knew about it a long time ago.

When she was fortune-telling for her parents, she also tried to find the traces of her uncle and aunt Gu.

Then I got this answer: they have all been reincarnated and each has a happy family. He also has a good talent and a bright future ahead of him.

At the same time, she also knew that Gu Jiayan had come to ask for help from Long Jun earlier than her. As for not telling her, it was probably because he didn't want her to be sad.

We unexpectedly talked about this topic today, and both of them seemed to have let it go.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The destination is right below. Go and gather everyone."

Chu Yi patted his cheeks and put away these personal emotions. The past is past, and what should be let go has been let go. It’s time to concentrate on developing your career.

Gu Jiayan had no objection and followed her to the middle of the deck, ready to wait for the classmates to gather here.

Soon, everyone who received the notification from Feizhou came out of the room.

After meditating all night in the high altitude where the spiritual energy is abundant, everyone feels much more energetic and seems to be in better condition than usual.

Several people looked at each other and smiled eagerly.

Without any nonsense of encouragement, Chu Yi directly ordered to lower the altitude of the flying boat. They had already made preparations in the academy, and now nothing could prove everything better than a direct battle.

The Lingbao flying boat was very fast. In just a few seconds, they landed on the ground from an altitude of ten thousand meters.

Chu Yi directly pinched the magic formula to put the flying boat back into the space bracelet, and then looked around.

Qin Hang pulled up the map, determined the coordinates, and discovered that this was a relatively remote small town in Country F, one of the areas that had already fallen.

"Everyone, be careful." He raised his head, projected the screen into the air, pointed at the map with flashing red dots and said, "According to Country F's own investigation, this is a completely occupied area. There are only vampires and blood servants in it, no normal humans."

"The danger level is moderate, so we must not let our guard down."

No one objected to Qin Hang's kind warning, but some people disagreed with what he said about Country F's assessment of this place.

Liu Jimeng's tone was very disdainful: "No humans? That's not necessarily true."

Gazing into the distance, a few willow branches and leaves suddenly grew out of her smooth black hair, swaying gently in the breeze. The pupils also changed unconsciously, a dark green color eroded the original brown, making it look very strange.

This was a sign that she was activating her innate magical powers, proving that she was communicating with the plants in the area.

Not only her, but Jia Lan next to her also began to display his magical powers.

Nine furry fox tails emerged from behind him, dancing gracefully in the air. A pair of furry ears emerged from the hair, fluttering slightly to catch the tiny sounds around. His pupils also transformed into ice-blue animal pupils like Liu Jimeng's, reflecting beautiful light like ice crystals under the sunlight.

I don’t know what information she collected, but she also said in a cold tone; “It’s obviously because of their own incompetence that they said all these places had fallen and did not allow international rescue. This rotten government does not deserve to continue.”

Although their perception is not as sharp as the two half-demons, the others are not stupid either. Combining what they had seen and heard in their daily lives with the words of their two companions, they could easily come up with an answer that would make them feel as if they were falling into an icy cave.

In these places abandoned by their own countries, there are definitely countless people struggling to survive.

And it is definitely not just a small number, otherwise the aura of Liu Jimeng and Jia Lan would not be so terrifying.

"...It looks like it will be a very difficult journey." Shi Fan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Since there are still humans out there, they can't just focus on fighting, they also have to find ways to rescue them. But with half of Country F having fallen, the strength of their men is just a drop in the bucket. They may not even be able to completely rescue the people in this small city.

But they can't just ignore them. No matter how difficult it is, they will try.

Gu Jiayan took one last look at the city silhouette bathed in the morning light in the distance, then turned to everyone and said, "Let's make a plan. There shouldn't be any high-level vampires here. If we do it right, we might be able to rescue everyone inside."
