Chapter 464: Worth and Not Worth, Future Imagination
"What did you say, Shirley is gone?"
Listening to Aretha's story, Serana became overwhelmed. What happened not only made the intruders who had died unbelievable, but even she herself had a hard time believing that such a bizarre thing would happen. But she knew Aretha wasn't lying, because the child had never had such a problem. She just needs to be sure.
"Are you saying that Shirley was taken by a dim yellow gem? A gem right here?"
"It's the thing in here, a stone that looks like an erect eye. Serana, will Shirley be all right?"
"Trust me, darling! She'll be fine. We'll find your father right now, and I'm sure he'll know where Shirley is and bring her back."
Seeing the helplessness and distressing worry on Aretha's face, Serana hugged her tightly into her arms, and comforted her gently.
Aretha has been frightened enough. If she can't give her some comfort at this time, it will only leave indelible wounds in her young heart. Therefore, although Serana herself is also very worried about Shirley's safety, she must show enough strength at this time.
However, no matter how hard the outer mask is, it cannot change Serana's weak heart. At this moment, she is actually very helpless, and she desperately needs an existence that he can rely on. That is to say, at this moment, she was extremely hopeful that Zhou Yi could be by her side.
But Zhou Yi is not here now, and now he is in front of two other helpless women.
On Malibu Street, in Tony's private residence by the sea, Zhou Yi stood silently beside the two unconscious women, looking at their haggard and pale faces with a kind of regret.
For him, it was one of the biggest mistakes of his life. He shouldn't let these two women go to the battlefield, and he shouldn't leave them without permission because of his arrogance. Now he finally paid the price, and the price really hurt his heart.
This inner pain even surpasses the pain of the body and even death, if you can. He really hoped that he could transfer all this to himself, and exchange his pain for their safety. However, this is just an extravagant dream given the fact that it has already happened.
"Don't worry. They'll be fine. I'll fix them!"
Although they were rivals in love with these two women, looking at the sadness and grief on Zhou Yi's face, Qin Gelei couldn't help holding Zhou Yi's hand and assured him.
"Please, Jean. They'll leave it to you!"
And listening to Qin Ge Lei's assurance, Zhou Yi finally showed a slight smile on his face. With the help of piano. It was indeed a comfort to him about their recovery. He believed in Qin's means, and believed that she could bring them back to him.
What's more, Qin's willingness to help them is something that should make him feel gratified. He has really carried too much, and really doesn't want to lose any more.
And just when the two of them looked at each other and said nothing, Tony walked over quietly with two wine glasses.
He didn't seem to want to interrupt the two people's tenderness, but he knew that if he didn't make a sound, it would only be more embarrassing, so he could only cough twice before walking forward. said to them.
"Don't worry too much, man. I've had Jarvis scan them. They're just mentally ill, and they'll get better with a little training."
"I know, buddy. By the way, I haven't thanked you yet. Help me take them to a safe place. I owe you this." With a slight smile, Zhou Yi took the wine glass from Tony's hand, and Zhou Yi was right. Thank him.
And listening to him, Tony just shrugged. He spoke back.
"It should be said that we are even. You saved me twice, and I helped you save your two women. So on this issue, we don't owe anyone anything."
"Then do as you say. We owe no one."
He raised his glass and drank all the wine in it. Zhou Yi expressed his gratitude to Tony for his friendship in this way. And looking at Zhou Yi, that has been a bit vicissitudes, and even compared with himself, his appearance is not much different from the precipitation of the years. Tony asked with a regretful look on his face.
"Man, is it worth it?"
He was really curious at this moment, who had already given up his hero status, how Zhou Yi would answer him. He wanted to know. What is it that drives this friend to do those heavy and almost unaffordable things.
And listening to Tony's question, Zhou Yi pulled out a smile and put his eyes on the three women beside him.
"It's worth it, why not worth it!"
"Man, you almost died. So did they! Do you really have to do this for a bunch of strangers?"
Tony's tone suddenly became intense, just like when he just heard the news of Zhou Yi's death. As a guy with few friends, he cherished every one of his friends extremely, which made him abandon everything he was proud of without hesitation at that time, just to protect Zhou Yi's most important thing.
"You think of me too well, Tony. In fact, to me, they are the most important things. My family, love, friends, these are the things I cherish the most, for them, no matter what I do It's not too much of a degree. So, it's not worth it or not!"
"What about those ordinary people? Don't forget what they did to you, but they failed what you did to them. They owe you everything, I really don't know, why you still To help them, and to help these ungrateful guys. In my opinion, they really don't deserve it."
Tony's tone has become nasty, not towards Zhou Yi, but towards ordinary people, even towards himself. He hates ordinary people who are ungrateful, but even more hates himself who can't hold on to the end. He himself threw away his pride, and if he wanted to pick it up again, it would not be so easy. He needs a reason, a motivation to change his mind. And this motivation can only be drawn from a guy like Zhou Yi.
Maybe he saw what Tony meant, the confusion in his heart, his hesitation and his struggle. Zhou Yi thought and thought before opening his mouth and speaking to him.
"Man, I don't know how to answer you. But I can only tell you that there are many things I really don't think about. It's not a measurable thing at all, and a lot of times, you have to rely on your own feelings. "
"I know what those people have done to me, and sometimes I know it's not worth it. But there are still people standing by your side, aren't they? When people curse, there are still people standing by my side, supporting me, believing in me. That's enough, isn't it?"
"And, think about it sometimes. They're just a bunch of helpless, poor people. Although they make a lot of stupid mistakes, sometimes I really don't feel the need to take all my anger on them. Go. They have families, lovers, and children just like me, and if I let them die, and let them die at the hands of those scoundrels, wouldn't there be too much tragedy through my hands? You know? Yes, I've always hated saying tragic things."
Zhou Yi's answer made Tony show a helpless wry smile, he punched Zhou Yi's shoulder fiercely, and then said to him.
"You know what, man. Everything you say makes me feel like a contemporary saint. I can see why you want to be a god. A guy like you really does God's Qualification!"
"Thanks for your compliment, mate. If I'm going to build a temple, I'll give you the title of honorary bishop and make you feel good about the clergy. I know, you've been right about the one you've always had since you were a kid. Your chattering priest is very resentful."
"Oh, then I really have to thank you, man. Hey, I'm going to write this down, hear you, Jarvis! I really want to know what those annoying priests are wearing bishop uniforms. What nonsense can I have!" With a witty smile, Tony changed his subject. "By the way, what do you think about the future?"
"I have already told the captain that I will let go of everything I am now carrying and live a normal life with them."
"That's really enviable! But what about this city. New York is no longer suitable for human habitation!"
"I know, so I plan to move my family to Huiyao City. You know, that's where my foundation is located, and that's the city that belongs to me alone. Of course, if you want to be a neighbor with me, I'll be very welcome too. The best thing is that you and Pepe come together!"
"Forget it, this is my hometown." Looking through the window at New York, which was still filled with gunpowder, Tony shook his head and said firmly. "Anyway, I'm not going to leave it behind. I'm going to rebuild this place and make it look the same again. No, I'll make her even more beautiful!"
"Good idea, but it will be very difficult!" Zhou Yi was about to say something, but Jarvis suddenly interrupted.
"Sir, there is an external communication from Medusa. She asked to contact Mr. Zhou?"
"Medusa, what's the matter?" Zhou Yi instinctively felt an ominous premonition upon hearing Medusa's request for communication. He connected the communication immediately, and then asked.
And then, a bad news came into his ears. This caused his already quiet heart to burst into anger again.
He was so furious that he couldn't contain it. (~^~)
