Chapter Five Past Events

  Now, he found himself looking too highly at himself. A thread of fear flashed through Duan Feng's heart, fearing that she would suddenly see him, fearing that he would once again see the smile with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

  "I'm so happy, there are many little friends today..." The girl next to her said excitedly.

  Just then, she gently tousled her own floating long hair and looked up ahead.

  She hoped that the great changes in herself over the past few years, as well as the dim lighting, would make her unrecognizable to him. At this moment, Duan Feng's heart was filled with anxiety, just like a thief caught by his master.

  But she could recognize herself in an instant, how could he possibly not recognize her?

  When her eyes swept across Duan Feng's face, her complexion suddenly stiffened, and her heart felt like it had been hit by a hammer. Unconsciously, she covered her chest with both hands, and her originally rosy face turned deathly pale in an instant. Her eyes were confused but filled with pain!

  Seeing her expression at this moment, Duan Feng only felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he had been stabbed with a needle.

  She indeed recognized each other at a glance, just like herself.

  Just as Duan Feng was about to rush over and support her, the delicate little girl also discovered her abnormality, hastily hugged her leg, anxiously saying: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

  The little girl's words were like a thunderclap that struck Duan Feng's head, causing his whole body to tremble.

  Mom? She's already... Duan Feng wanted to help her up, but as a married woman now, it was probably impossible for him to touch her again.

  Duan Man knew her well, she was a proud and traditional woman, once she married someone, she would be devoted to that man wholeheartedly!

  Even if you don't love, it will be like this.

  It seemed that the little girl had caught her attention, and her face slightly regained some of its color. Holding the girl's hand, she said softly: "Xi Jun, Mom is fine!"

  Her eyes had already shifted away from Duan Feng's body, seemingly unintentionally, pulling the little girl's small hand, lowering her head and brushing past Duan Feng shoulder to shoulder.

  Time seems to have stopped at this moment.

  The two people's figures were just like they had missed each other four years ago!

  Some people say life is a series of missed opportunities and regrets, but he and she didn't quite live up to that.

  Looking at the disappearing back, Duan Feng's heart was in pain, a feeling as if millions of ants were biting.

  She was supposed to be Duan Feng's wife, but now...

  Xī Jūn, this girl is called Xī Jūn. As soon as Duàn Fēng thought of the little girl's name, he felt a sudden pang in his heart. Although she was already married, he still couldn't let go of her, or else why would she be named Xī Jūn!

  Duan Man lit another cigarette for himself, a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth, and walked towards home.

  The past is gone, people can't live in the past.

  At the mention of Qiyan Meng at home, a hint of smile flashed across Duan Feng's face.

  Without any hesitation, Duan Feng turned around and walked quickly towards home. He was smoking a cigarette and walked lazily into the house. Looking at Qi Yan Meng who was sitting on the sofa writing their cohabitation agreement, he said faintly: "Meng Meng, is the agreement written?"

  "Bastard, don't call me Mengmeng!" Qi Yanmeng angrily shouted at Duan Feng.

  "Meng Meng, you're now on my turf, so you don't have the chance to haggle. Of course, if you think it's unfair, you can call me Brother Feng!" Duan Feng said, completely unfazed by Qi Yan Meng's angry face.

  "The contract is not written well!" Qiyan Meng said after finishing, and then ignored Duan Man, she knew that the two words "dream" had already been unable to shake off.

  "Then you write slowly, I'll go take a bath first!" Duan Feng said and directly walked into the bathroom, taking off his clothes and throwing them directly into the washing bucket. His wheat-colored skin, under the light, was like the most luxurious Suzhou silk, and after being splashed with cold water, the outer layer of his skin showed a healthy soft glow.

  Those muscles full of explosive power, from the neck to the ankles and the first block of bones, are perfectly matched together, as if they were completed by the most meticulous mathematician.

  If there's a flaw, it's that his body is covered in scars, crisscrossing like a totem that exudes an air of simplicity and rustic charm.

  What was most shocking was the scar on his chest and the tattoo on his chest!

  On his chest was a tattoo of a wolf, a snow wolf, with white fur but stained with blood everywhere. This wolf stared with a pair of dark blue eyes, bared its sharp teeth and howled at the sky, looking extremely ferocious and frightening.

  On the chest of this snow wolf, there was a huge scar, as if it had been left by something that had pierced its body. The scar was about 10 centimeters long, and one could imagine how severe the wound must have been at the time. Yet, he still managed to survive tenaciously, which was nothing short of a miracle.

  As the cool water poured over his skin, Duan Feng gently stroked the huge scar on Xue Lang's chest, and a hint of pain involuntarily appeared on his face. One by one, figures emerged in his mind.

  "As long as we live, there is hope..."

  "Older brother, you must work hard to live on..."

  …………

  Bang!

  Duan Feng's face was filled with pain, his fist heavily pounded against the wall of the bathroom, and a cold killing intent emerged in his eyes at the same time. His fists were tightly clenched together, and a tear mixed with water droplets slid down from his face.

  "Brother, why?"

  Duān Fēng's mouth let out a low, hoarse growl, as memories of the past and external sensations merged into fragments, like countless black-and-white Polaroid photos reflected in a shattered glass mirror, slowly becoming clearer and clearer...

  "If we were all going to die and only one person could live, we would want that person to be you!"

  "Damn it, don't mess around, we still have a chance!"

  …………

  "Bang bang!" A series of knocks on the door, accompanied by the voice of Qiyan Meng, not fully awake: "Duan Feng, what are you doing in there, making such a big noise!"

  "It's nothing, I just accidentally broke a mirror!" Duan Feng's thoughts were interrupted by the knock on the door.

  Hearing Duan Man's answer, Qi Yan Meng slowly walked back to the sofa and continued writing their cohabitation agreement.

  Feeling that Qiyan Meng had left, Duan Feng clenched his fists tightly and secretly said in his heart: "Qi Peng, you can rest assured, I will definitely do what I promised you!"

  Duan Feng's thoughts were once again pulled back to the past.

  "If I go, you must marry my sister and take good care of her, my sister is a beauty!"

  "What are you talking nonsense about? I have someone I love, how could I possibly marry your sister?"

  "I know, but by the time you retire, your wife will already be married to someone else. How about considering my sister? My sister is a beauty."

  "Damn you, is there anyone who curses like you?"

  "Haha, wasn't I just joking?"

  ………

  Duan Feng recalled Qi Peng's words. A bitter smile spread across his face, and he couldn't help but think that those words had actually become a reality.

  Ever since that mission four years ago, Duan Man had lain in bed for eight whole months. At the time, his injuries were so severe that even he himself didn't have confidence that he could pull through, but Heaven seemed to be taking special care of him, and despite such heavy injuries, he managed to survive.

  After recovering from his injuries, Duan Feng led the surviving brothers in a plan for revenge, which took a whole year to accomplish.

  After that, Duan Man returned to Hua Xia, back to this long-separated country, and also brought Qi Peng's last words before his death, went to find Qi Yan Meng.

  Duan Man slowly walked out of the bathroom and saw Qi Yan Meng still writing the agreement, which made Duan Man pause, this woman had been writing for so long and still hadn't finished.

  "Is the agreement okay?" Duanyan asked faintly.

  Qiu Yanyu raised her head and looked at Duan Feng, suddenly stunned. After a brief moment of stunned silence, a shrill scream echoed out.

  "Ah——"

  The shrill scream scared Duàn Fēng half to death.

  "What are you doing, trying to scare me? I'm very brave!" Duan Feng slowly walked towards Qi Yan Meng.

  "Don't come over!" Chu Yan Meng, who was a bit stunned, suddenly reacted when she saw Duan Feng walking towards her, let out a sharp cry, then covered her face with her hands and pulled her feet up onto the sofa, looking like she had seen a ghost.

  Duān Fēng was confused by Qiān Yān Mèng's antics. What was wrong with this woman? Why the expression?

  But soon he thought of something, looked down and also shouted loudly with his head raised.

  Duan Qing had just finished taking a bath and directly wore a large pants to walk out, completely forgetting that there was still a woman in his home at this moment.

  "What's your name! Shameless, hurry up and put on some clothes!" Hearing Duan Feng's scream, Qi Yan Meng, who was originally embarrassed, couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed. She had screamed because she saw Duan Feng's body, it was the first time she saw a male body of such a large scale, and after screaming, everyone was stunned; while Duan Feng's scream was definitely imitating her.

  "You've seen through me, can't I even call out?" Duan Feng smiled slyly at Qi Yan Meng.

  At this moment, Qiyan Meng, who had always been like a queen, looked at him with disgust, as if she had seen a rat or a cockroach!

  "Hum, shameless!"

  "Alright, I've wrapped myself up!" Duan Man's face was thick-skinned and didn't show any embarrassment, but seeing Qi Yan Meng's embarrassment, he casually picked up a towel to wrap around his lower body: "However, how can I be shameless? This is my home, after I finish bathing, not wearing clothes is considered shameless, then do you bathe without taking off your clothes?"

  Qingyan Meng slowly opened her eyes to see Duan Feng wrapped in a bath towel, and she let out a slow breath of relief. However, in an instant, her face turned ugly again.

  Because the bath towel on Duan Man's body was the one she had just used, it was now on Duan Man's body!

  Suddenly a surge of nameless anger rose again in her heart, this despicable bastard, from the moment she met him to now, she had never smiled, and now he was wrapping himself in his own bath towel...
