Chapter 794: Chapter 13 CC’s Vow (Added for Alliance Leader Feixue Xiao!)_3 Chapter 794: Chapter 13 CC’s Vow (Added for Alliance Leader Feixue Xiao!)_3 Eyes met.
Lin Xian saw the resolve and determination in CC’s eyes.
“If there were a man who would jump out of a plane for me, risk his life to save me...”
CC looked at Lin Xian, her voice clear:
“Then naturally, I would give everything for him, even unto death.”
...
...
The Tyndall effect of the sunlight, passing through the air filled with floating dust, landed between the two of them.
It separated their shadows, yet it also illuminated and fused them together.
A moment of tranquility only stirred a more fervent chirping of the cicadas.
...
It was like applause,
like an ovation,
and like a wail.
The breeze through the jungle brought a hint of damp earth fragrance, along with the sweet scent overflowing from flowers.
Butterflies and dragonflies flew through the sunlight between them, dazzling the eye and creating an illusion.
“It was the Bearded Man, VV, right?”
Lin Xian sensed the secret hidden in CC’s words.
He spoke softly:
“I’ve asked you several times before and got no answer, but why a single sentence from the Bearded Man, VV, can drive you to chase after the safe with such disregard for your life.”
“There must be a story between the two of you.
Whether deeply etched or unforgettable.@@@@
Is that right?
It seems like you’re talking about me, but in fact, it’s still that man whose one sentence changed the blueprint of your life...
the Bearded Man, VV.”
CC blinked her eyes.
She turned away and continued to lead the way:
“Perhaps so.”
Her voice was a bit ethereal:
“But it’s the same for everyone, and the reasoning is the same too.
There will always be things worth risking our lives for, and always some people for whom we are willing to do so without a second thought.”
“Speaking of which...”
CC paused, walked around a huge tree that would take three or four people to encircle, and changed direction:
“Speaking of which, I noticed just now that you seem...
to have aged a bit.”
Immediately,
She shook her head:
“To say aged...
might not be quite accurate.
Teacher Wei, we’re looking for Safe No.
66, its contents are also very important to us.”
“Let’s search together?
And I happen to know a place where a safe is buried.
It’s probably not yours or mine, but let’s try our luck anyway.”
Quite quickly,
Wei Shengjin was moved by Lin Xian’s sincerity and decided to follow him to the place supposedly where the Hafnium Alloy Safe was buried to explore.
He reached out wanting to shake hands with them:
“Young man, young lady, how may I address you?”
“My name is Lin Xian.”
Lin Xian pointed to himself and then to CC:
“She is CC.”
Wei Shengjin laughed merrily:
“Good...
good...
I’ll remember your names.
My name is—”
“Teacher Wei!” “Teacher Wei!”
Lin Xian and CC quickly took Wei Shengjin’s hand:
“We’ve heard so much about you, Teacher Wei, let’s just call you that.”
Huh?
Wei Shengjin looked puzzled.
Himself...
was just an ordinary college teacher, with no titles, and no significant inventions.
Was his name really that renowned?
“Teacher Wei, let me carry the bag for you.
Just follow our pace.”
Lin Xian switched to quick mode.
He took Wei Shengjin’s large backpack, slinging it over his shoulders, and began to lead:
“The safe is buried over there, there’s nothing all along this way, let’s speed up!”
Lin Xian and CC ran off as if time was of the essence.
This made Wei Shengjin anxious...
and he hurried after them.
“Hey, young folks, why the rush?
We’ve got all the time in the world!”
After running for a while, he started to breathe hard:
“Oh my, I can’t keep up with you young people...
Slow down, slow down, friends, it’s not like the world is ending tomorrow, what’s the hurry!”
