Chapter 26 Haohao

Time flies. Three days in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is also a lifetime for some people.

Chen Xuan sat on a chair in the open space of the hospital, eating a lollipop and staring at the blue sky in a daze. He was waiting to tell Haohao something, and then he heard the sound of high heels in the distance. Looking over, it was the graceful Liu Mei.

Chen Xuan asked somewhat boredly:

"Why are you here?"

"I knew you were here."

Liu Mei sat down next to Chen Xuan without any hesitation, and took out a pack of ladies' cigarettes from her pocket with her slender nails. She lit it with a click, took a puff, and a "whoosh" sound came out.

Chen Xuan glanced over and saw Liu Mei staring blankly at the air in the smoke, with her legs crossed and shaking.

"You don't look like ."

Liu Mei frowned, glanced at Chen Xuan and said disdainfully.

"Who are you comparing me to?"

Liu Mei looked down at her nails and said casually:

"I picked up smoking when I was undercover, and I couldn't change it when I returned to the team."

"Who are you looking for?"

"Looking for you."

"Although I lost, I want to know why you made such a decision?"

"Everyone knows that if you're only focused on saving everyone, you won't make the choice you did. Do you think you've won? This direction is even more terrifying than a mistake. It means that one day you'll continue to retreat from your bottom line, sacrificing the people of one city for the people of two cities, sacrificing the people of two cities for the people of the world."

"Finally, there is nothing left to sacrifice."

Liu Mei lied here. She didn't feel that she had lost. She just wanted to know what kind of person Chen Xuan was.

Chen Xuan looked at the blue sky again, leaned back, and said with a sigh from his Dantian:

"Hey, why are you fussing so much?"

“Everyone’s position is different.”

"If everyone uses your method, no one will ever know about mine."

"You're overthinking it."

Liu Mei sneered, "What this world lacks the least is people. You always think you're unique, but in the blink of an eye, everyone is like you."

"If you don't do it, someone else will."

Chen Xuan didn't answer. He squinted his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Liu Mei suddenly felt that Chen Xuan was not as complicated as she had imagined. She thought of Chen Xuan as a master strategist, perhaps a time traveler who had been reborn many times, or an expert who had a complete grasp of ghosts in private.

But he is nothing but a loser.

Win her by luck.

Liu Mei exhaled a thick puff of smoke again. She had smoked halfway and continued:

"Do you know what I admire most about you?"

"What?"

"You are really a bitch."

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't you know that everyone inside is going to die? They are all killed because of your plan. Do you think they will be grateful to you if you come to see them? They will only hate you."

"I say you're iron-blooded, but you're also a jerk. I say you're a jerk, but you're also cold-blooded."

"I thought the man who challenged me at the meeting that day would be very brave, but he turned out to be this kind of man."

Liu Mei had nothing more to say.

She stood up and wanted to leave, but Chen Xuan said nothing and just stared at the sky.

Liu Mei sat down again.

She just provoked him.

"Are you so willing?"

Chen Xuan glanced at Liu Mei and smiled helplessly:

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Liu Mei snorted coldly and said:

"From the moment you stood up at the meeting, I knew what you were thinking. I just wanted to confirm it."

"You think that this world needs someone to stand up and be the bad guy. Since no one else is willing, then you should stand up."

"You are not afraid of criticism or responsibility. At most, you will become a sinner for eternity. As long as you can solve the problem, it's fine."

"I used to think the same way. Let me be the bad guy and bear the infamy."

"But that's what I regret most."

Chen Xuan closed his eyes, bit the candy, making a crisp sound, and did not answer.

Liu Mei looked at Chen Xuan's closed eyes. This time, her tone was a little more sincere, although only a little.

"When someone who is not a bad person acts like a bad person, the pain they feel will be greater than you can imagine."

"You don't have that ability."

Chen Xuan swallowed his saliva.

He opened his eyes and looked at Liu Mei.

"Are you finished?"

Liu Mei shrugged and waved her hand:

"I'm done."

Chen Xuan said seriously:

"Then let me tell you, you're overthinking it. I'm not as far-sighted as you are. I just think your plan is rubbish. It can't be completed at all, and there's a risk of further spread. Instead of spreading it further, why not just follow my plan?"

"I came to the hospital just to show my concern for the victims."

"promise."

Chen Xuan pursed his lips, and in the distance, a little boy came running towards him.

"His name is Haohao. His mother is the one I'm responsible for controlling. She passed away last night because of the Pen Fairy. But before she died, she asked me to take her child to an orphanage."

"Also, Huang Duo used the last six days to knit eight sweaters for Haohao, saying he wanted him to wear them until he turned eighteen. I'll give them to him on his behalf."

"Why would I come to the hospital if I have nothing else to do? Do I have a lot of free time? I have a lot of things to do."

After Chen Xuan finished his last sentence, he chewed the candy as if nothing had happened, closed his eyes, and enjoyed a moment of tranquility.

Liu Mei smiled, then turned and left, leaving only one sentence.

"You'd better do as you say."

The surroundings became quiet, the smile on Chen Xuan's face disappeared, and then he listened to the sound, opened his eyes again, and looked in front of him.

At this moment, Haohao was rushing towards him from the other end of the hospital.

"uncle!"

"Alas, Haohao."

Haohao stopped in front of Chen Xuan, tears in his eyes, and said tremblingly:

"Uncle, Mom said...she's going to a very far place and won't come back until I grow up."

Chen Xuan showed a smile that was unique to coaxing a child. He took Haohao's hand and said:

"That's right, Haohao, your mother also told me to take you to the orphanage..."

"uncle."

"My mom lied to me, didn't she? My mom is actually dead."

Chen Xuan was stunned and looked at Haohao's big eyes, which were staring at him at the moment, making him a little afraid to look directly at him.

He then realized that Haohao was very precocious and already knew everything.

Chen Xuan took a deep breath and said:
