Chapter 249 The Girl Who Jumped Off the Bridge
Chen Nian's next plan is simple.
After settling Uesawa Sakura in, let's rest for a while and wait until our divine power is fully restored before continuing to think of ways to level up and become stronger!
Chen Nian never took enemies among humanity seriously.
The enemy he truly needs to take seriously is the "calamity" from beyond the heavens!
Seventy-two demon gods, eighteen heavenly waterfalls, beings that destroy all gods...
After returning to Linhai City, Chen Nian temporarily settled Shang Zeying at Tang Rou's house before returning to his own villa to rest.
night.
Tang Rou's home is an ordinary residential building in a community. She bought the house herself; it has two bedrooms and a living room, and she usually lives alone. Now that Shang Zeying has come, it's just right.
"Make yourself at home here, don't be shy. The boss told me to take good care of you!" Tang Rou said generously.
"Arigato..."
Uesawa Sakura bowed her head and thanked her.
Tang Rou thought to herself, "This little sister is quite nice; at least her attitude is very polite."
But she didn't expect that she would have trouble sleeping that very night.
"ah!!"
While sleeping, Uesawa Sakura suddenly let out a scream, as if she were having a nightmare!
"What's wrong with you?" Tang Rou rushed into her room to ask.
"I...I..."
Sakura Uesawa stammered, her little face full of apology.
"It's okay, just tell me what's wrong, and I'll help you."
"I'm sorry, I'm a little scared."
Uesawa Sakura curled up in bed, looking as delicate as a pitiful kitten.
She has been protecting her older brother since childhood, but his whereabouts are unknown and he can no longer return home. Now she can only live under someone else's roof and is constantly worried about being hunted down. She even recalls the desperate scene of her brother's hand being cut off whenever she closes her eyes.
It's understandable that they were afraid; anyone would be afraid in their situation.
"Don't be afraid, I'll sleep with you, okay?"
As a gentle older sister, Tang Rou patiently comforted Shang Zeying, hoping to soothe her fear.
But she found that it didn't work!
Finally, Tang Rou was completely exasperated: "How about this, I'll send you to the eldest son's house. You should feel safer by his side."
"But....."
"It's okay, just don't say I took you there, I didn't know anything about it."
.......
At two o'clock in the morning, Chen Nian heard a knock on the door.
When he opened the door, he was surprised to see Tang Rou and Shang Zeying.
"you.....?"
"Boss, she doesn't feel safe with me. Why don't we keep her here with you? Don't worry, boss, this is a secret between us, I won't tell anyone!"
"No, you're making me sound like a thief!"
"Boss, if there are any special circumstances, I can cover for you. Do whatever you want, and don't forget to remember my contribution later."
After explaining all this, Tang Rou clapped her hands and left with a smile, leaving Shang Zeying and Chen Nian to look at each other awkwardly.
"Alright, come in."
"Um!"
After Shangze Ying came to Chen Nian's side, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her emotions had become quite relaxed and she had no mental stress at all.
Full sense of security!
These feelings of security were built up during that war and are deeply rooted.
After her brother left, Chen Nian became Shang Zeying's safe haven.
"The room on the left on the second floor is empty; you can sleep there."
Uesawa Sakura nodded obediently, then turned back before entering the room and asked shyly, "What do you want for breakfast tomorrow? I'm very good at cooking."
"Either is fine, it's up to you."
Chen Nian was both amused and exasperated. It seemed this girl was truly prepared to serve him; she was quite self-aware.
The problem is that Xiao Qi knows where she lives, but her identity is quite conspicuous and easily attracts attention, so she doesn't come over often in order to avoid exposing Chen Nian's identity.
Zhao Yixue also knew that it wouldn't be convenient for her to do other things next time... cough cough.
But that's not the point. The point is, if they find out I brought a woman home, they'll definitely be upset...
Chen Nian leaned against the balcony, feeling that he should have a cigarette in his hand at that moment.
When a man wants to appear profound, he should quietly lean against the window at night and smoke, the smoke rings he exhales being dispersed by the evening breeze, giving him an air of having seen through the world.
Commonly known as "pretentious".
Chen Nian looked out the window and saw something different.
"That is..."
Even without his "third eye," his eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people.
On the distant bridge spanning the river, a blurry figure could be seen!
The figure stood on the bridge top, tens of meters high, with arms outstretched, seemingly suspended in mid-air, as if he could fall at any moment.
"You're going to jump?!"
Without thinking twice, Chen Nian rushed out the window.
But before he could get close, the figure had already leaped down and was falling at an extremely fast speed.
There's no way to save them; they're too far away.
"If I remember correctly, there should be a riverbank under the bridge..."
Chen Nian flew all the way there, arriving at the riverbank at top speed.
There was a girl sitting under the bridge arch, hugging her knees and lost in thought. Occasionally, she would pick up two pebbles and throw them into the murky water.
"Was that you who jumped off the bridge just now?" Chen Nian went over and greeted him.
The girl turned around in surprise, covering her mouth, her eyes filled with astonishment.
"You...you saw it all?"
The girl had long, curly, light blonde hair. Underneath a red scarf was a beige coat, lined with fleece, yet it still made her look slim. She hugged her legs, her jeans outlining the shapely curves of her thighs.
"Why jump off the bridge? You're not going to die," Chen Nian asked.
"Ah! You... how do you know I won't die from the fall?" The girl's shock deepened.
"How could someone with superhuman physique be so easily killed by a fall?"
Seeing that she was unharmed after falling from such a height, Chen Nian naturally concluded that she was an extraordinary person. He could fall from hundreds of meters without any problem, let alone tens of meters.
"Oh...I see." A hint of sadness flashed in the girl's eyes, but she forced a bright smile: "Thank you, kind person! You even came all this way to check on me."
Chen Nian shrugged helplessly: "Where do you live?"
"I don't live around here. I came here on the behalf of a friend. By the way, do you know of a villa area nearby? I couldn't find it before."
"Don't jump off the bridge if you can't find me."
Chen Nian thought to himself, "Isn't this the villa area where I live?" and pointed it out to her.
"Alright, I'm leaving." Chen Nian waved goodbye.
Goodbye, kind person, see you again sometime~~~
The girl stood up and waved, her red scarf fluttering slightly in the night breeze.
Shortly after Chen Nian left, the girl suddenly clutched her head and squatted down with an extremely painful expression.
"No...don't come any closer!"
A man's hideous face kept flashing through her mind.
The man, scalpel in hand, was approaching her step by step, a sinister smile on his face that sent chills down her spine!
........
An airport in China.
A man wearing white gloves is carrying a black suitcase and walking down a street in the early hours of the morning.
"You think you can't be caught just because you've fled to the Dragon Kingdom?"
Ahead, a flight attendant in uniform is standing by the roadside, seemingly waiting for a car.
The man walked over and gently patted the flight attendant on the shoulder.
"you....."
Before the flight attendant could even speak, a line of blood appeared on her throat.
The man smiled as he caught the flight attendant's falling body, muttering to himself, "Another beautiful soul."
