Chapter 171 - 171 Ten years
Chapter 171: Ten years
Ye An wanted to practice forest hunting, so he needed an opponent, and Shi Sha was just right.
At first, Shi Sha was resistant, and he was still thinking about spending more time to make progress.
But as he fought with Ye An, he gradually found that it was very beneficial to spar with masters. Ye An could easily give him answers to the decisions that he didn't know how to make in the battle!
On the other side.
Qiu Yu and Fang Tianlian, the young couple, just got off work, so they prepared to prepare some food first.
The two came to the cafeteria.
Mu Xiaoye made a big pot dish. As a chef from the market, he despised those beautifully presented and expensive foods.
With just a small piece of ingredients, what skills can be said?
Big pot dishes are the most challenging things for chefs!
Besides, it's easy.
Get up in the morning to fry six dishes, stew a soup, and put them on the warming table. Whoever wants to eat it later can fight for it, and it's nothing for me.
Fang Tianlian took the plate, glanced at it, and quickly ordered two meat dishes and one vegetable dish.
Qiu Yu behind him had almost finished eating.
After getting the rice and soup, the two sat in a corner of the restaurant.
Qiu Yu suddenly frowned and said, "Actually, there is one thing I have always wanted to say."
"What?" Fang Tianlian raised his eyebrows.
"When facing the Apocalypse, my intuition told me that the other party was letting us go." Qiu Yu said lightly: "Later, I also knew about her relationship with Li He."
"So she didn't kill any of us at that time."
"Then what?" Fang Tianlian asked after drinking a mouthful of soup.
"Do you think the Apocalypse can be our helper?" Qiu Yu raised his eyebrows with a guilty conscience and lowered his head to eat.
Fang Tianlian put down his bowl and chopsticks, looked up at her and asked, "You don't want to tell me about this, do you?"
"Hmm?" Qiu Yu pursed her lips and said with a forced smile, "Yes."
"No." Fang Tianlian's expression was complicated, and he said, "You were not like this before."
"We haven't seen each other for only a few months. Did something happen in the meantime?"
"What's wrong with me?" Qiu Yu was puzzled.
"You resisted me." Fang Tianlian said lightly, "I wanted to hold your hand today, and you subconsciously shrank back."
"Although you held my hand in the end, the reaction was wrong."
"Not only this, many details in the middle made me feel a kind of... alienation."
"Is that so?" Qiu Yu's smile became more forced.
"What happened?" Fang Tianlian questioned.
Qiu Yu seemed to have made up her mind. She lowered her head and said with a dim look: "My father has never liked you."
"I have always thought that this is not a problem."
"But the first week after you left, I found out that I had been married off by him before I was born."
"He and the White Dragon King have a baby marriage."
"Yes." Fang Tianlian nodded slightly and said: "So you will marry the son of the White Dragon King in the future."
"Bai Jianxin."
"One of the most powerful geniuses of the demon clan, and also the leader of your operation this time."
"Did you come to this base with him?"
"No." Qiu Yu's eyes were slightly red, and she said: "I have to at least finish this matter with you before I contact him."
"I can't let you wait for me foolishly."
"Okay." Fang Tianlian responded softly.
After speaking, Fang Tianlian lowered his head and continued to eat.
It seemed that nothing had happened.
His emotional stability was frightening.
Qiu Yu had no appetite at all. She smiled and said, "Let's talk about something else."
"I heard that your father passed away some time ago?"
"Yeah." Fang Tianlian nodded with his head down.
"Are you okay?" Qiu Yu asked softly.
"I've been fine for a long time." Fang Tianlian shook his head.
The two were silent.
Qiu Yu couldn't help but said, "Don't you have anything to say?"
"That's it?"
"Just... um, oh, ah?"
Qiu Yu's eyes became redder.
She didn't think Fang Tianlian was calm at this moment.
On the contrary, she felt that Fang Tianlian was just numb.
For him, pain was like water, he drank it every day, and over time, he no longer felt it.
Fang Tianlian remained silent.
Qiu Yu continued to watch, and the little pearls kept dripping from those gentle and lovely eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Suddenly, she clenched her fists slightly and said, "Heaven."
"Otherwise, I'll go with you."
"I won't go back to the demon clan."
"Okay?"
"Just pretend I didn't say those words just now."
But Fang Tianlian still didn't speak, just ate.
He didn't put down his chopsticks until his bowl was empty.
"I have lived in the demon tribe for many years."
"The demon tribe attaches great importance to face."
"If you go back to the human tribe with me, not only will the White Dragon King cause you trouble, but your father will not let you go either."
"You know all this very well, so you won't be happy even if you leave with me."
"It's not like you don't have feelings for your father."
As he spoke, he looked up at the scenery outside the window, like an old man about to wither, gently patting his knees with his palms, with an expression on his face that looked like he was crying, and like he was laughing crazily.
After an unknown amount of time, he smiled casually, "It seems that all first loves will eventually end in failure."
"It's nothing special that we have come to this point."
"Thank you for taking care of me for so many years."
"Go away."
Qiu Yu stared at Fang Tianlian at this moment.
Her father's angry reprimand echoed in her mind.
"It's hard for the demons and humans to marry!"
"Besides, what's your identity?"
"What's his identity? The only capable head of their family left some time ago."
"You're not worthy of him!"
"You won't be happy if you go with him!"
"That's one point."
"The second point is that he's not strong enough!"
"Are you willing to stay at home and be a good wife and mother?"
"You're my daughter, don't I understand you?"
"You can't accept this. You'll definitely be on a higher stage in the future, and he can only stand below and watch."
"You're a woman, you don't understand. A strong man can't accept this."
"That Fang Tianlian can't accept watching you shine on the stage from the audience!"
"How long are you going to argue with me!?"
"As a father, I've been through this. You and that kid have no future!"
At that time, Qiu Yu only asked back: "In the final analysis, he's not strong enough. If he was Zhao Huaiyi, a genius of Ye An's level, wouldn't you resist?"
Father was silent for a while.
But Qiu Yu didn't dare to tell Fang Tianlian all this.
His self-esteem was already shattered and couldn't bear another heavy blow.
So Qiu Yu could only talk about the engagement, wanting to see how Fang Tianlian would react.
Would he forcefully say some bold words?
No, nothing.
He was just standing there alone, silently sad.
Thinking of this.
Qiu Yu slowly stood up.
Suddenly, Fang Tianlian looked up at her back and said, "Your engagement with Bai Jianxin."
"I can't interfere."
"But I will change your father's mind."
"Change what mind?" Qiu Yu asked.
Fang Tianlian said quietly, "He should look at me with new eyes."
"At least, I am definitely better now than when he was young."
Hearing this.
Qiu Yu couldn't help but be startled.
Fang Tianlian at this moment revealed a strange feeling.
Confident, but not as if.
Suddenly, Qiu Yu said in a mysterious way: "Fang Tianlian."
"I will wait for you for another four years."
"No one can force me to marry anyone in these four years."
Fang Tianlian sat at the round table.
He suddenly remembered the content of his mother's conversation with him during the time when his father passed away.
"In fact, you can't imagine the life of your father and I back then."
"A small house of ten square meters, two people lived in it."
"I didn't have much education, I was just a cashier, with average ability, and I didn't make much money."
"He did everything, as long as he could make money, and worked several part-time jobs a day, because he said that part-time jobs made more money than full-time jobs."
"I often saw him come back with bloodshot eyes and fell asleep."
"He never told me what difficulties he encountered."
"He only said that I wanted to stand out and make a lot of money."
"A low-level worker who didn't have much education ended up as the Minister of Transportation of Gao Tianyu."
"And gave birth to an infinite-level son like you."
"How great is that?"
Fang Tianlian always thinks of these.
Especially when he felt that he was in a difficult situation.
In fact, he couldn't imagine his father when he was young, tall and thin, with a fashionable hairstyle, smiling at people flatteringly on the street.
But that was what his father looked like three thousand years ago.
But three thousand years is too long.
Four years is too fast.
Suddenly.
Fang Tianlian looked at Qiu Yu and said, "Four years is not enough, ten years."
Qiu Yu was startled and said, "You want me not to marry for ten years."
"Yes, I will marry you in ten years." Fang Tianlian said seriously.
At this moment.
Qiu Yu saw confidence in him!
She smiled and said, "Ten years, okay."
"Ten years!"
