Chapter 468 (1/2)
I don't know how to persuade Dongmei. I just hold her and want to use this method to alleviate her inner pain.
I think I am a big brother of Dongmei. Seeing Dongmei in such pain, I couldn't help but do something I would never do to comfort her.
Originally, I just wanted to discuss with beast gate. Now it has evolved into this. I feel that things in the world are really unpredictable. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing half an hour ago.
Dongmei father and daughter calmed down slowly. I also quietly released Dongmei, stepped back and sat down nearby, ready to find a topic to distract their attention, so as not to keep them in such pain.
Before I could speak again, Dongmei herself said, ”general, I'll inform our sergeants and let them all come. We can set out for the black forest tomorrow morning...”
I was about to find a chance to distract their attention. When I heard the speech, I nodded and agreed.
Dongmei almost immediately rushed out of the door. Looking at her worried appearance, she seemed to be running away from something.
Dong Meng and I often looked at each other, sighed and shook our heads.
When the sergeants arrived at the black forest branch of beast gate, it was already 10 p.m.
After hastily eating the dinner prepared by beast gate, they all went to rest and were ready to set out early tomorrow morning to look for the wreckage of the Starship.
Because I wanted to practice, when the sergeants had dinner, I went to the room arranged by beast gate for me to practice. I didn't pay too much attention to the things of beast gate.
The night was quiet. Early the next morning, I finished my cultivation early. When I came outside, I saw Dongmei standing outside the door.
”Good morning.” I smiled and said, ”did you get up so early?”
”Didn't sleep at all!” Dongmei's answer was very direct: ”I can't sleep.”
”Still thinking about the past?” I don't know how to persuade her. I can only say carefully, ”don't think too much, things will be solved.”
”No!” Dongmei seemed a little strange to me, and she was a little cold when she spoke: ”I'll prepare breakfast. After the general grooms, I can have dinner.”
I don't know where I offended Dongmei. Seeing that she deliberately avoided me, I couldn't understand it.
At breakfast, the sergeants also saw that Dongmei was abnormal, and one by one they automatically avoided Dongmei, as if they were afraid that Dongmei would annoy them.
I knew something about Dongmei. I thought she was still thinking about her mother, so I kept some distance from Dongmei so that she wouldn't even clean up with me when she was angry.
In front of so many sergeants, I was cleaned up by Dongmei. I can't live up to my face.
Dongmei ignored us. After eating some breakfast, she said loudly, ”eat quickly and start later. No one should fall behind the team, otherwise they will be dealt with by military regulations.”
The sergeants didn't dare to speak. They all looked at me as if waiting for me to respond to Dongmei.
I'm a little embarrassed. I don't want to make it difficult for the sergeants, and I can't completely ignore my commander's orders. I'm embarrassed at both ends.
Just when I was embarrassed, Dongmei had gone away. She didn't intend to wait for our answer at all.
I breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the relieved sergeant, smiled and said, ”look, eat quickly, and start right away.”
