I Love Little Watermelon
Chapter 734 The Fall of Cloud City
The mother and daughter cried tears of joy and said a lot.
As for Yuan Chen, he stood on the side, seemingly unsure of how to speak.
Yuan Mu Ye walked to Yuan Chen's side and said casually, "Don't you have anything to say to Li Qiqi?"
"What's there to say between us? I caused the death of her entire family. She will never forgive me."
Yuan Chen knew Li Qiqi's temperament very well. Most importantly, Li Qiqi had said that as long as she was alive, she would never forgive him.
If it weren't for this daughter, they probably wouldn't have met again for many lifetimes.
Yuan Mu Ye curled his lips. He originally wanted to say something, but thinking that this was a matter for their family, he, as an outsider, shouldn't say too much.
From their perspectives, their actions might both be correct, so it wasn't appropriate to judge this matter.
Yuan Xiao Yao was also very sensible and didn't mention Yuan Chen in front of Li Qiqi.
But Li Qiqi brought it up herself first.
"Xiao Yao, when did you find him?"
Yuan Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, and replied, "Some time ago. He told me about what happened between you."
As a daughter, Yuan Xiao Yao was really in a difficult position.
Li Qiqi didn't want to make Yuan Xiao Yao feel embarrassed, so she said, "Xiao Yao, no matter what you choose, Mom will support you."
After all, Yuan Chen was Yuan Xiao Yao's biological father. Even if she was the biological mother, she couldn't stop them from recognizing each other.
Hearing this, Yuan Xiao Yao felt even more uncomfortable. Although Li Qiqi didn't say it directly, Yuan Xiao Yao could tell that Li Qiqi hadn't forgiven Yuan Chen.
In this kind of situation, it was understandable that Li Qiqi couldn't forgive Yuan Chen.
Yuan Xiao Yao could only stand in the middle, not saying anything to either side.
"Mom, you've really had a hard time these past few years."
The mother and daughter chatted for half an hour.
Yuan Mu Ye saw that the time was almost up, so he prepared to leave for Yun City.
Although he hadn't been in Yun City for the past two days, he had been thinking about it.
If it weren't for the lack of signal here, Yuan Mu Ye would have called Li Pangpang a long time ago to ask about the situation.
"Take me with you!"
Just as they were about to leave, Jiang Qiu'er suddenly chased after them.
Yuan Mu Ye didn't expect Jiang Qiu'er to chase after them, and looked at her with some surprise.
"Why should we take you with us?"
No one knew what this woman was thinking. If he agreed too easily and took her with them, Yuan Mu Ye couldn't afford the responsibility if something happened.
"You must be short of manpower now, right? I can help you." Jiang Qiu'er looked at Yuan Mu Ye with a calm expression, without the arrogance she had before.
Yuan Mu Ye naturally believed in Jiang Qiu'er's strength, but he didn't know if she would cause trouble.
After all, she hadn't been this attitude before.
It was only natural that Yuan Mu Ye was suspicious of Jiang Qiu'er.
"Why should I believe you?"
Jiang Qiu'er frowned slightly and said, "Because I've fallen out with them, left Jile Ya, and am willing to get involved in this matter."
What she said seemed to make sense.
Having an extra helper was definitely a good thing for Yuan Mu Ye, but he didn't know if Jiang Qiu'er was sincere.
"If you really want to come back with me, you have to show some sincerity, right?" Yuan Mu Ye still felt that it was better to be careful.
Jiang Qiu'er hesitated for a moment, then took out a fan from her body and handed it to Yuan Mu Ye.
"This is the Jile Shan (Fan of Paradise), my favorite treasure."
Yuan Mu Ye hesitated and took the fan. On the surface, it was just an ordinary fan, no different from any other.
At this time, the ghost advisor on the side said excitedly, "Sir, this is a treasure!"
Since the ghost advisor had said so, Yuan Mu Ye didn't doubt it. He didn't know much about this fan, but he could tell that it was a treasure.
Since Jiang Qiu'er was willing to present her treasure, Yuan Mu Ye had no reason to refuse.
After Yuan Mu Ye put away the fan, he took Jiang Qiu'er back with him.
On the way back, Yuan Mu Ye didn't dare to rest at all, so it only took him a little over a day to rush back to Yun City.
When they arrived outside Yun City, they found that the surroundings were unusually quiet, and there wasn't even anyone guarding the city gate.
A bad feeling suddenly surged in Yuan Mu Ye's heart. Could something have happened during the time he was away?
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. Yuan Mu Ye immediately called Li Pangpang. Fortunately, Li Pangpang's phone went through and he answered quickly.
As soon as the call connected, Li Pangpang's anxious voice came from the phone, "Lao Yuan, where are you? When are you coming back?"
"I'm already back. Where are you?" Yuan Mu Ye asked in a low voice.
"The apartment. Come back quickly. Yun City has fallen!"
Yun City had fallen after all!
Yuan Mu Ye looked at Yuan Xiao Yao and Li Qiqi with a serious expression and said, "Yun City has fallen."
"Ah? So fast?" Yuan Xiao Yao was a little surprised.
After all, it had been less than a week, and it had fallen just like that.
The hope in Yuan Mu Ye's heart was completely shattered. He thought that as long as he returned as soon as possible, he would be able to defend Yun City, but the facts proved that some things were destined to happen and couldn't be changed just by trying hard.
Well, since it had already fallen, there was nothing he could do. He could only try his best to protect the people who were still alive.
Entering the city gate, the empty streets were filled with the aura of death.
In the past, the streets were quite crowded during the day, but now there wasn't a single living person.
Everything had really changed!
Looking at the desolate streets, Yuan Xiao Yao asked in a low voice, "Brother, should I go and check the situation?"
"Okay, I'll let Da Li go with you."
Yuan Mu Ye then called Zhang Da Li out and asked him to accompany Yuan Xiao Yao.
Yuan Chen originally wanted to go with them, but Yuan Mu Ye didn't agree, so he could only give up.
After the two of them left, Yuan Mu Ye rushed back to the apartment. If he wanted to know the specific situation of Yun City now, he could only ask Li Pangpang and the others.
Ten minutes later, Yuan Mu Ye returned to the apartment.
The surroundings of the apartment were also deathly silent. Even during the day, no one dared to come out and walk around.
Because Yuan Mu Ye had taken special measures to protect the apartment, ordinary evil spirits didn't dare to approach it.
Yuan Mu Ye opened the door and went in, seeing Li Pangpang sitting on the sofa with a worried expression, not knowing what he was thinking. He didn't even know that Yuan Mu Ye had returned.
"Pang Ge, I'm back."
Hearing the voice, Li Pangpang looked up and immediately stood up from the sofa.
"Lao Yuan, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, we would have been wiped out!"
