A very light sentence caused the playful expression on Lin Li's face to stiffen a little. She didn't expect Wan Qianqian to so directly reveal the feelings that sprouted from the bottom of her heart. Even in the past, she didn't do this.
Even when Wan Qianqian obeyed the feeling in the bottom of her heart and said this sentence, a trace of surprise flashed across her face that gradually became a little more meaty. She just blankly met Lin Li's gaze.
The living room seemed to have fallen into a state of stillness. Two figures sat on the sofa like stone statues, quietly staring at each other.
It wasn't until the sound of light and fragmented footsteps broke into the silence that the two people who had fallen into astonishment were pulled back to reality by the gradually clearer footsteps. Two pairs of watery eyes simultaneously looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
His expression was a little drowsy, his flaxen hair was a little messy, and he was wearing a relatively casual thin shirt. He walked over with a small yawn.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yu's footsteps finally stopped about three meters in front of the sofa. At this time, his face had lost its former clarity, and it was full of confusion as he looked at Wan Qianqian and Lin Li who had been staring at him.
"Daddy, why are you here? Why do you look so tired? " Wan Qianqian stood up from the sofa and took small steps to Lin Yu's side. She especially intimately held his arm and asked curiously.
After hearing this, Lin Yu stretched out his other hand that she hadn't been holding and gently rubbed the tiredness between his eyebrows. If one looked closely, one could see some traces of blood in the whites of his eyes.
Lin Li, who knew all of this, also stood up and walked to Wan Qianqian's side. She pulled her away from Lin Yu in a particularly natural manner. "Your daddy is a little busy with work, so this is it."
"Daddy is so pitiful." Wan Qianqian nodded as if she understood, then her little face slightly wrinkled. She then bit her pink cherry lips and groaned.
There seemed to be some traces of guilt on her delicate face. She secretly made a decision in her heart and the two small pink fists hidden in her loose sleeves clenched without a trace.
Then, Wan Qianqian thought of Gu Tanfeng again. Her delicate face drooped pitifully, and she looked at Lin Yu pleadingly and asked, "Daddy, where did Gu Tanfeng go? I want to go find him. "
His voice was drawn out, revealing the longing in his heart on his face. There seemed to be some suspicious crystalline liquid swirling in his eyes, as if it could flow out at any time.
Lin Yu, who had stayed up all night to study Wan Qianqian's condition, felt a little pain in his temple. Coupled with Wan Qianqian's obviously moved expression, the pain was even more obvious.
Lin Yu silently threw a look in Lin Li's direction, and the meaning was particularly obvious. When his gaze shifted back to Wan Qianqian's face that was full of pleading, he sighed helplessly.
"Qianqian, why are you in such a hurry to find him? It's not like he's not coming back. Do you miss him so much? " After receiving Lin Yu's pleading look, Lin Li prepared her ability to express herself in her heart. The teasing expression on her face gradually seeped out, and she asked teasingly.
As expected, when Wan Qianqian revealed her true feelings just now, it was because she was anxious. At this time, her thinking ability was especially clear, so she couldn't say anything. Her delicate face was unknowingly stained with a bit of red.
"I don't! I don't! " Wan Qianqian kept widening her eyes and forcefully choked out this sentence. Her beautiful eyes were full of evasive expressions.
"Oh, you don't? Then just now you … "Lin Li deliberately repeated her answer. The next second, she opened her mouth slightly to say what just happened in an attempt to stimulate Wan Qianqian's nerves.
Wan Qianqian, whose face was already as red as a tender apple, knew what she was going to say next. Before Lin Li could finish speaking, she immediately opened her mouth to stop her. Her voice rose a few octaves, "That's right, I remembered that I still have other things to do."
After leaving this sentence, she flew away like a gust of wind, leaving only Lin Li and Lin Yu in the living room. The two quickly exchanged glances, as if they understood the expression in each other's eyes.
Lin Li sat forward and poured a cup of tea for Lin Yu with the teapot on the coffee table. She gently pushed the cup in front of him and asked in a very light voice, "Have you thought of a plan?"
Lin Yu, who was still kneading his eyebrows, paused for a moment. He glanced at Lin Li like a robot, then silently withdrew his gaze. His eyes looked ahead with a trace of blurriness. He nodded for a moment, then shook his head in the next second.
This repeated answer made Lin Li a little confused. Before she could open her mouth to ask, her shoulders were suddenly pressed by a pair of big hands. A glass of milk was presented in front of her, and a sweet feeling swept past her nose.
"Tell me the truth, what are the chances of success?" A gentle voice sounded in the slightly depressing atmosphere. The first sentence that came out of his mouth hit the center of the topic, once again stirring up the hearts of everyone present.
Lin Yu, however, was not very surprised. His slender fingers held the teacup and took a sip or two. His slightly bloodshot eyes were full of calmness. After a few seconds, he slowly put down the teacup in his hand and stretched out three fingers of his right hand.
The answer was presented in front of Lin Li and Xu Changjun. Their expressions suddenly stiffened, then gradually darkened.
"This is too risky. We don't even have half a chance." After the atmosphere was depressing for a while, Xu Changjun bitterly squeezed out such a sentence from his throat.
They didn't even have half a chance. If they failed, the situation would definitely be worse than now! This answer was like a heavy stone pressing down on their hearts, causing them to even breathe cautiously.
Lin Li, who gradually calmed down, slightly bit her pink and tender red lips. Her mind quickly flashed with Lin Yu's slight nod and shake of his head. She hurriedly asked, "Lin Yu, you have another way, right?"
From the beginning, Lin Yu's attitude was a little unfathomable. His face was full of mystery, making it impossible to see what he was thinking. Moreover, Lin Yu's expression when he gave the answer was too calm. Therefore, Lin Li made such a speculation.
Hearing Lin Li's words, the gloominess that lingered in the bottom of Xu Changjun's heart also dissipated little by little. He also looked at Lin Yu with a somewhat urgent expression.
"Yes." Lin Yu did not hide much and gave them a gentle affirmative answer. However, his expression did not relax.
The surrounding air seemed to have been sucked away. Waves of suffocation constantly enveloped Wan Qianqian. She clearly felt that her breathing rate was becoming faster and faster …
Until the little bit of oxygen in the surroundings was almost exhausted, she finally bravely opened her hands and lifted the blanket that covered her body. Fresh air swarmed in, making her heart, which had almost stopped beating, become lively again. She hurriedly patted her chest.
There was still a feeling of emptiness where her heart was beating, as if something was missing. This feeling made Wan Qianqian very unhappy. Especially when Lin Li's words constantly lingered in her ears, messing up her thoughts.
"Gu Tanfeng, where did you go?" Unknowingly, Wan Qianqian murmured this sentence. Her expression was particularly disappointed. Both sides of her cheeks were still red from the almost suffocating situation just now.
"Ding — —" A slight sound rang outside the window, attracting all of Wan Qianqian's thoughts. She gradually put down the hand that was covering her chest and stood up from the bed.
Her bright eyes were filled with endless doubt. With every step she took, the sound became clearer. When she stood by the window, a small ball of paper flew through the air and landed in her hand. However, she could see everything outside and there was nothing suspicious.
Wan Qianqian looked at the small ball of paper with a confused expression. She once again poked her head out to look at the situation outside. Still, she did not find any suspicious person or object.
The crumpled piece of paper lay peacefully on her white and delicate palm, as if it contained something. Wan Qianqian, who was constantly overflowing with curiosity, unconsciously opened the paper ball. There were a few strong and forceful words on the paper.
Those words were reflected in Wan Qianqian's eyes, giving her a heavy blow. At that moment, all the strength in her body was sucked out. She could not even hold the paper ball in her hand steadily.
Wan Qianqian, who could not even stand steadily, hurriedly stretched out a hand to hold on to the wall beside her. Only then did she barely support her body. The blood on her face faded little by little, and there was a dull pain in her heart.
After a while, Wan Qianqian's state of mind gradually calmed down. That delicate face faintly had a hint of a fierce aura. Little by little, she bent down to pick up the paper ball. She placed it in the palm of her hand and kept clenching it. The crumpled paper ball became even more unbearable under her increased strength.
A bloody storm seemed to be coming soon. The weather in S City also became particularly gloomy. Dark clouds gathered from all directions, giving the entire city an extremely oppressive feeling.
Night fell. When the night came, it was accompanied by a heavy downpour. Bean-sized raindrops fell crazily from the sky. Zigzagging lightning flashed across the sky, crisscrossing to form something like a spider web.
