Xiaoya took two days off, shouldered his homework, and boarded a private jet to arrive in Dallas.
As soon as Komunen walked out of the shooting competition venue, he received a call from Xiaoyao.
"Comneno, I'll wait for you outside the door."
The little girl hung up after finishing speaking.
Comnenus thought for a moment that he was hallucinating.
"Did I take a call?"
"Yes, you answered the phone." After the subordinate answered, he asked, "Did something happen again in Yemen?"
Komneno said nothing, but raised his eyes and looked out the door.
This look——
"Why are there so many people?" Komneno's face turned dark.
The men immediately turned around and contacted the agent in the square outside the door.
The other party’s answer was: “There is a coffee brand doing an event.”
"Let the other party drive them away." Komneno said coldly.
But just as he finished speaking, the phone rang again.
"Comnenus, haven't you seen me yet?" the duck asked at the other end.
Comnenus gritted his teeth.
Children are becoming more and more difficult to deal with.
"Comnenus, I'm sitting and waiting for you." The duck continued.
Obviously, this was a filtering condition that was deliberately prompted to him!
Xiaoya hung up the phone again.
Comnenus clutched his cell phone tightly and raised his eyes to scan the sun umbrellas set up in the square. There were about thirty people sitting under the umbrellas.
About 20 people with different body shapes were eliminated.
There are about seven or eight left.
There are people with blond hair, people with black hair, people with red hair...
There are also people wearing peaked caps and straw hats.
Komnenos immediately walked into the crowd without thinking.
He was tall and had several men with menacing postures. As soon as he entered the crowd, someone immediately made way for him.
At this time, Komnenos' cell phone rang again.
"Comnenus, if you plan to go up to everyone and identify them one by one, that's cheating." Little Duck reminded at the other end.
Komnenos: "..."
So good, so bad that it bubbles up.
He was indeed thinking that since there were only a few people left after screening, wouldn't it be clear after reading them one by one?
Comnenus could only stop now and asked the other end of the phone: "Is this a test?"
As he asked, he continued to look at those sitting there.
Trying to figure out who's on the phone... but there are three people on the phone.
He looked back and forth from the three people, then back and forth... Finally, his eyes moved and suddenly landed at the feet of a person.
The man was sitting with his back turned, wearing a peaked cap, a baggy T-shirt and overalls. More like a boy than a girl.
But there was a schoolbag at "his" feet.
"Sir?" The subordinates noticed that the boss seemed to be frozen.
Comnenus slowly came to his senses and asked, "It should be class time now, right?"
The subordinate was a little stunned: "Really? I haven't been to school for many years..."
Comnenus finally walked towards the figure: "Demon?"
"Congratulations, you guessed it right." The little duck turned back.
Even if they don't meet in person sometimes, they still talk on video calls. Comnenus lowered his eyes, it was indeed a very familiar face.
"The call hasn't been hung up yet. Where is your cell phone?" Komneno asked.
The little duck patted his trouser pocket and pointed to his ears.
Comnenus took off her peaked cap and pushed back the hair around her ears, finally revealing the Bluetooth headset underneath.
Comnenus snorted coldly: "I'm not wearing a wig."
The little duck raised his face and smiled: "I lied to you, am I bad enough?"
Komnenos: "..."
The little duck bent down, picked up the schoolbag and handed it over, saying, "But I also opened a little back door for Komnenos."
Komnenos instinctively reached out to take it, and heard the duckling say again: "I'm leaving. I'll have dinner with Komnenos when I come back."
What a familiar routine.
Komnenos' eyelids twitched and he opened the zipper of his schoolbag: "Inside this..."
"It's a Western test paper."
“……”
The little duck stood up from the chair and brought a cup of coffee to Komnenos.
Comneno didn't answer and grabbed her collar: "Are you going to Princeton again this time?"
Xiaoyao shook his head: "No, I'm going to Atlanta."
"Take two people," Komnenos said.
The little duck nodded: "Okay."
She agreed so readily that Comnenus couldn't say anything.
Komnenos had said this before, but was rejected.
At that time, most of the people following Xiaoya were bodyguards borrowed from Wei Wenjun. I don’t know if the children are afraid of a fight.
"Well, him, and him." The little duck picked two from Komnenos.
Don't look outside the box.
But Komnenos was happy to keep her secret.
Komnenos took Little Duck's schoolbag and left, while Little Duck left with his new bodyguard.
After getting into the car, Komneno called his men: "Let's see what she wants to do."
He still doesn’t know who the kid met at Princeton.
The protection is so good that Komnenos is a bit sour.
*
Qin Sui did not go to school in Atlanta, but in Cambridge County.
Why did you arrange to meet in Atlanta?
Xiaoya got out of the car and looked up to see Qin Sui waiting there.
His expression was even gloomier and gloomier than when Xiaoya first saw him as a child.
The duck walked towards him, and he walked towards the duck.
Pausing, Xiaoya asked in a low voice: "Did something happen to Qin Yue?"
Otherwise she wouldn't have thought of any other possibilities.
Qin Sui smiled, but the gloom in his eyes had not faded: "You are so smart."
"Qin Yue broke a leg, and I also found many self-inflicted scars on her body. But no matter how I asked, I couldn't get a result."
The little duck was startled: "Then what can I do?"
Qin Sui continued: "She can't listen to anyone, including me and the psychiatrist. When she was in elementary school in China, she had many friends, but now she has no friends who can relieve her."
Xiaoya thought for a moment and said objectively: "But I can't be her friend."
Being friends depends on the right time, right people, and right location.
It’s not that you want to have it, so you can have it.
"You are at least a girl about the same age as her..."
"Then I'll give it a try." Xiaoya didn't want Qin Sui to be disappointed, but she couldn't lie about something she couldn't guarantee.
Qin Sui then took Xiaoya to a high-end private hospital.
Almost the entire floor of the hospital was cleared, with only one ward with lights on.
Qin Sui opened the door and walked in front, and a girl's hoarse voice immediately sounded inside: "I told you, I'm fine, I'm fine! I want to leave here, I want to go back to school! Qin Sui! I don't have a brother like you!"
Qin Sui's expression remained unchanged and he gave way to the little duck behind him.
Qin Yue glanced at the duckling: "You are the one..."
Qin Sui answered, "Grandpa Zhang's granddaughter."
Probably because the words "Grandpa Zhang" had an effect, Qin Yue's expression softened instantly.
Xiaoya looked at her, but it was difficult to connect her with the way she held flowers at the previous birthday party.
Qin Yue went abroad after graduating from elementary school. I haven't seen her for a long time. She has also grown a lot taller and lost a lot of weight. Her cheeks are slightly sunken, her eyes are blue, her face is pale, and her neck seems to be broken at a snap.
She no longer has the domineering air.
