Pei Jingling still had a self-deprecating smile on her face, but lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, covering the pain and fragility in her eyes.
There was silent sadness all over him.
Putting the silver chain back under the clothes should not want to mention what happened.
Qin Shuyu pursed his open mouth back, even though he had a lot to say in his heart, but looking at Pei Jingling's serene eyes, he remained silent and did not take the initiative to ask.
Although they have different positions now, they are still friends after all.
He still couldn't do something like taking the initiative to open up other people's scars.
I don't know how long there was silence between the two, but Pei Jingling was the first to speak to break the silence.
He raised his eyes again, his eyes and nose were a little red, but he didn't cry.
He said lightly: "Since we've been open and honest, let's not act. In fact, you can guess seven, seven or eight, right?"
Qin Shuyu made a deep "um".
"You guessed it right, I felt the coercion and power from the senior executives on the first night, so I went to the young marshal's mansion to see the situation." Qin Shuyu sighed, "I didn't expect to see you guys. Two. I didn't expect Brother Li to become an S-level executive and also lost his memory... "
Become an executive, it means that Ren Li has lost his life in the game, only his soul is left.
And now he appears in other game dungeons as a human player, and it is estimated that there are various stories.
What's more, Pei Jingling's words just now "turned back into a ghost" and "lost for the second time"... have already revealed the twists and turns here.
Pei Jingling rested his head on his hands, leaned on the armrest, pressed his temples, but did not answer.
Qin Shuyu paused, afraid that he would touch Pei Jingling's depressed mood again, so he kept his mouth shut.
Seeing the concern in Qin Shuyu's eyes, Pei Jingling raised a faint smile: "Why do you keep looking at me like this, you won't slander 'he won't cry again' or something."
Pei Jingling returned to her previous appearance, as if the sadness just now was a sudden emotion that was fleeting.
Qin Shuyu whispered, "Jingling..."
Pei Jingling breathed a sigh of relief, her expression was calm, her voice was clear, and she smiled lightly: "You really need to update your impression of me. If I'm still so vulnerable, you probably won't have the chance to see me and brother Li again. ."
"You are an executive officer, you can definitely see my points panel." Pei Jingling tilted her head and chuckled, "I suggest you take a look at my points and calm down."
Qin Shuyu really went to check his points, and was surprised by the long list of numbers: "You, how many levels did you pass?!"
Thinking of how long ago he sighed three years ago, he said hesitantly, "You won't stay in the game all the time, will you?"
Pei Jingling smiled: "It's almost half a year between the last time you returned to reality and the last time you returned to reality?"
Qin Shuyu was a player before. He silently converted the time between the game and the real world, and almost choked himself. In half a year of real time, it is estimated that he can spend hundreds of thousands of years of dungeon time in the game.
Pei Jingling cast his gaze to the vast sky outside, squinted his eyes, and whispered to himself: "So no matter how much pain, it should be relieved in such a long time."
That heart, which was riddled with holes by the emotion of near despair, had nowhere to be hurt any more.
There is only occasional subtle pain.
Qin Shuyu frowned: "what about your body in reality?"
Pei Jingling turned around and smiled: "Of course it's fine, can't you feel that I'm not an ordinary person?"
Qin Shuyu certainly felt that Pei Jingling also had the power of the origin of the game.
And he can see not only the points earned, but also the huge amount of points consumed, and asked in a low voice, "Is it all for Brother Li?"
"It's not for him..." Pei Jingling picked up the water in front of him, took a sip, and winked cutely, "Who else could it be for?"
Qin Shuyu didn't know what to think. He had always been unconcerned: "How can a person persist after being separated for so long...?"
The heat of the tea in his hand drifted away, and he shrouded Pei Jingling's gentle eyes: "Courage born of love."
With a gentle smile on his face, "It's enough for me to resist all loneliness."
After talking, he shook his head and chuckled again, "I told you so much without knowing what to do now..."
Qin Shuyu pursed his lips, hesitated for a few seconds, but couldn't hold back, and asked, "...Since you've all met again, why haven't you been together yet?"
Pei Jingling held the teacup's hand for a while, and the smile on his face faded a little: "Didn't I already say it before, I still have a little disagreement with him on some things now."
"Yes... don't you want him to tell about the past?"
"You really know." Pei Jingling put down the teacup in his hand and squinted his eyes, "otherwise, he wouldn't lie in front of brother Li and say that you are my college classmate. Speaking of which, I have to thank you for helping me."
Qin Shuyu twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled embarrassingly: "Your memory is still so strong, I can remember everything I said casually so clearly."
Leaning forward a bit, looking at him curiously, he asked, "So that's it?"
Pei Jingling's brows narrowed slightly, her voice lowered a bit, as if she sighed helplessly: "Well."
He also laughed lowly at himself, "And I seem to be going too far. I can't give him all the truth, but I want him to give me all the trust."
Although he was very sad, Pei Jingling knew that it was understandable for Ren Li to do that.
No one will just accept a person who is almost unknown and loves to hide from himself.
"Then why didn't you tell him?" Qin Shuyu couldn't understand, and said with a frown, "Brother Li's character is the most annoying when someone hides things from him. It's not like you don't know..."
"I know." Pei Jingling interrupted Qin Shuyu.
Half-closing the peach blossom eyes, avoiding Qin Shuyu's puzzled eyes, revealing half of the cold face, and said in a low voice, "But I can't help it."
Last time, I worked hard to clear the customs, and when I met Brother Li in the S01 dungeon, I told him all the past... What was the result
It will only be more powerfully restrained by the game consciousness, and finally make him fall into a more violent Specter.
His hand unconsciously touched his neck again... and all traces of him in reality were erased.
There was a silent heaviness in Pei Jingling's heart, like water over his head, blocking his breath.
Even if I don't know if this time will be the same as last time.
But he was still afraid.
I am afraid that my efforts will be in vain again.
Qin Shuyu couldn't hear Pei Jingling's thoughts, but he could see a little bit of his pain from his gradually becoming cold and calm.
"sorry… "
"It's okay." Pei Jingling's eyes were covered with a hazy mist, and he took a deep breath, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and laughed at himself, "It seems that my lacrimal glands are indeed quite developed."
Qin Shuyu was at a loss, he hurriedly sat down, took the handkerchief and handed it to him, saying, "Little Elf..."
"Master!" The servant shouted from outside the living room, "There is another guest!"
Qin Shuyu was trying to find a way to comfort Pei Jingling, so he raised his voice and replied, "No!"
"Here is... hey hey, Master Young Master, please slow down..."
"Young master is meeting guests, it's inconvenient..."
"Go away!"
The door of the living room was kicked open, and Pei Jingling was wiping his tears with his head down, when Qin Shuyu turned his head to look at it for the first time.
Ren Li walked in with a gloomy face, and saw Pei Jingling and Qin Shuyu sitting together at a glance, his face was so black that he could drop ink.
The servants rushed in in a panic, and they couldn't afford to provoke them. They looked at the people in the living room with horror.
"Master... The young master wants to come in, we can't stop..."
Qin Shuyu shivered, and quickly said to the servant: "Hurry up and retreat for me!"
Don't say you can't stop it, I can't stop it either!
The crowd quickly retreated, leaving the three of them in the living room.
Qin Shuyu glanced at Ren Li, the aura on his body was not the sharpness of rage, but the gloomy indifference, the pressure released slowly oppressed everyone's heart, making people almost unable to breathe.
The sound of the military boots stepping on the floor was inexplicably palpitating.
"Pei Jingling, the reason you told me to split up is to come to him?!" Ren Li's voice was very low, suppressing endless anger.
In the past, Pei Jingling deceived himself and thought it was not a big deal, but this time he was deliberately hiding it from himself and came to find someone he knew before.
Find it, why should you avoid yourself? !
If I didn't feel that something was wrong, I went to the player's residence on his list to check the situation, and found that he wasn't there at all. Could it be that he has been hiding it from himself? !
Qin Shuyu was already feeling sorry for Pei Jingling and felt guilty for poking his sore spot, and stood up all of a sudden: "Hey, can you be gentle with the elf?"
Ren Li really hated it. Qin Shuyu called Pei Jingling affectionately, stabbed Qin Shuyu with a sharp eye knife, and said coldly, "Did I talk to you?"
"Hey, you use..."
Pei Jingling hurriedly pulled Qin Shuyu's clothes and emphasized, "Brother Yu, his temper is like this."
Of course Qin Shuyu knew that Pei Jingling was reminding himself that Ren Li's personality was not the same as before, so he frowned and shut his mouth.
When Ren Li heard Pei Jingling calling Qin Shuyu "Brother Yu", he was so suffocated, he walked over, lifted Qin Shuyu away, and sat beside Pei Jingling.
Seeing Pei Jingling bowing his head and holding a handkerchief in his hand, Ren Li frowned, his voice lowered unconsciously, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Pei Jingling's clear voice was a little stern: "...It's nothing."
As soon as Ren Li heard it, he felt something was wrong, reached out to squeeze his chin, and raised his head forcefully.
Then I found that Pei Jingling's eyes were red, the clear and bright peach blossom eyes were misty, and the eyelashes were still wet.
Ren Li's cold and angry expression immediately froze, and his fierce eyes instantly became at a loss.
The hand that was originally holding his chin was quickly replaced by a soft cup on his cheek, his fingertips lightly rubbed the end of his eyes, and his tone was flustered: "...Are you crying?"
Pei Jingling didn't speak, and didn't know what to say.
Ren Li felt nervous when he saw his expression of frowning and not saying a word.
Seeing that Pei Jingling's jacket and shirt, which had always been buttoned tightly, had two buttons open, he felt anxious and angry.
He narrowed his eyes, looked at Qin Shuyu with fascinating eyes, and said angrily, "What did you do to him?!"
Qin Shuyu pointed to himself and said speechlessly, "I'm Jingling's friend! How could I possibly do anything to him?"
Ren Li burst out with anger, took out the gun at his waist and pointed it at him, and sneered: "Executive officer, this is not necessarily true."
Qin Shuyu: "..."
Damn, are the executives so recognizable now? !
Grass, Ren Li, don't face me! I'll be in ashes!
Of course, Pei Jingling knew what would happen to Ren Li if he did something, so he quickly suppressed Ren Li's gun and whispered, "It has nothing to do with Brother Yu..."
"Are you helping him?" Ren Li looked at Pei Jingling and gritted his teeth, "Don't I remember that you hate executives the most?"
Pei Jingling's big eyes were full of grievances, and he said in a low voice, "That would also be divided..."
Ren Li was about to be swallowed up by vinegar, but now it was almost overflowing, his clenched teeth rattled and his eyes were red, not out of control, but just out of anger.
"So you'd rather lie to me and come to see him, right?!"
Even if he understood Ren Li's feelings and actions, Pei Jingling couldn't deal with emotional matters completely rationally.
Who doesn't want to be the only exception to their loved one.
Originally, the mood just now was enough of grievance and fear, but when Ren Li yelled at her like this, Pei Jingling felt sour and astringent in her heart.
The eyes were still full of water vapor, but now they condensed into water droplets directly, and the tears rolled down from the corners of the eyes uncontrollably.
His straight back collapsed, his eyes were wet and red, and he said with a weeping voice: "You are killing me again."
Ren Li was shocked to realize how bad his tone was just now, and his whole body froze.
Pei Jingling looked at him with tears in her eyes, beat Ren Li with her hands, and complained aggrievedly, "You will bully me."
Ren Li was pulled up in his heart, his throat choked, and he wiped his face fiercely.
"Pei Jingling, stop crying..."
Pei Jingling stared at him, her tears falling more urgently, her shoulders were shaking: "Don't you want to be my friend? You're not with me, you don't care who I meet!"
While saying in a stern voice, "It's none of your business! It's none of your business!", while beating him with his fists.
The strength of the fight is very small, it is completely the practice of children venting their grievances.
Ren Li let him beat him, and he felt distressed and depressed. Of course, he knew that he was unreasonable and could not give him a response, but he still had to bind him by his side.
Two sensible people are now in a state of irrationality.
