"Really? She...is back?" Rick obviously lacked confidence when talking about Xixi.
It seems that there are many things in the eyes...
"Have you... really forgotten?" Huo Mian asked.
"What can I do if I don't forget?" Rick smiled bitterly.
"Rick... I think my sixth sense has always been pretty accurate... I can also see people very accurately... I have always felt that you like Xixi very much."
"Indeed, I like Xixi very much." Only when Rick said the word Xixi, there was rare tenderness in his eyes.
Huo Mian remained silent...
"But... when it comes to feelings, you don't just have to do whatever you like... there are many things in between..."
"For example?" Huo Mian frowned slightly and looked at Rick.
"Identity." Rick said two words slowly.
"You dislike her background?" Huo Mian found it a bit incredible.
"No, I dislike myself... Xixi is a good girl from a normal family... but I am not." After saying this, he immediately looked at Huo Mian and continued, "Qin Chu has told you what I do. "
"The largest gangster in the United States." Huo Mian explained calmly.
"Yes." Rick nodded.
"But isn't that what your brother is taking care of? Aren't you okay in China these years?" Huo Mian was puzzled.
"That was before... But three years ago... my brother was in a car accident and became disabled... Now he can only use a wheelchair..."
Huo Mian was shocked after hearing this.
"So that's it... No wonder you didn't go to Xixi three years ago."
Huo Mian now solved the doubts he had had for the past three years.
She had talked a lot to Rick at the twins' full moon party.
He seemed to understand, and Huo Mian thought that in the end Rick would definitely find Xixi, and the two people who loved each other deeply would get back together.
Unfortunately…
Later, she heard that Xixi went to study abroad and Rick also returned to the United States and was never heard from again.
She was still wondering, what happened? How could Rick leave suddenly in that situation
It turns out that such a big thing happened to the family.
Rick sighed slightly and continued, "Three years ago, when I left your house, I wanted to go find Xixi immediately. But at that time, news came from the family that my brother had a car accident. I didn't care about anything. Come back here and take care of your brother, but he still can't get better. He is basically like a useless person now... And in the family, I am the only one who can stand up... I can't watch the country that my fathers have brought down be destroyed. People cannibalize... That would be a shame for my brother's heart for so many years... So... "
At this point, Rick paused.
"So now you have inherited your brother's position and are a veritable gang godfather."
Thinking of this time, Rick seemed to have a strong murderous aura when he got off the helicopter.
Then he shot and killed the gangster without even blinking. It seemed that he had killed many people in recent years.
"Yes... I don't think that the current me will make Xixi happy... because I don't even know how long I can survive?"
"Don't be so pessimistic..." Huo Mian suddenly felt sorry for Rick.
This man seemed cold, but kept everything in his heart.
"Huo Mian... I already have many lives on my hands... No matter if they deserve to die or not, they all died because of me... I can't turn back now. I can't choose my origin, but Xixi still has... She is just a An ordinary ordinary girl graduates from college, goes abroad for further study, finds a job after returning to China, finds a boyfriend who loves her, gets married and has children, and lives a peaceful and happy life. But I can't give her even these seemingly ordinary things. "
"So... Rick, you actually love her very much... and you are doing this just for her own good?" Huo Mian asked.
