Chapter 157 Old 8 in the Rain
Lao Ba retracted his gaze from the distance, turned around, and said meaningfully to Lao Jiu beside him: "Lao Jiu, you are wrong! I can't keep her. No one can keep her unless she really wants to stay. She is much more powerful than you think. Why do you think my martial arts suddenly became so high? Why am I suddenly able to stand above everyone else!"
Lao Jiu and Lao Shi could actually guess it. After all, everything was too coincidental, so coincidental that they couldn't pretend to be stupid even if they wanted to!
Lao Ba walked around Lao Jiu and headed towards the city wall. As Lao Ba walked on the bustling street, scenes before his eyes were all of the time he and Yun Yan had been together!
Lao Ba covered his heart and pressed it tightly, hoping to relieve the pain in his chest!
The ninth and tenth brothers followed behind the eighth brother with worry in their eyes. They knew that their eight brother was just being stubborn. He was obviously in terrible pain, but he still wanted to pretend that nothing had happened!
Just at this moment, it started to drizzle. Lao Ba stretched out his hand to catch the raindrops. Slowly, the small raindrops turned into big raindrops!
The Ninth and Tenth Lao hurriedly took the umbrellas handed over by the servants, and tacitly held the umbrellas over the Eighth Lao. The Eighth Lao could no longer feel the drops of water falling on his face. He raised his head and looked upwards, seeing two umbrellas hitting his head!
Lao Ba didn't feel better, but felt even worse. His eyes slowly turned red, and his mind kept recalling the days when he was with Yunyan!
Lao Jiu: "Eighth Brother, let's go back quickly! The rain is getting heavier, and Fourth Brother and the others are still waiting for us!"
Lao Ba looked at the heavy rain, his eyes showing infinite sadness. He said with a sad face: "This rain comes at a really bad time. I don't know if Yan'er can find the other person in time to hide from the rain?"
Old Nine and Old Ten were almost vomiting blood because of their starling, and now they were still concerned about Yunyan, whether she could find a place to hide from the rain in time? If it were anyone else, Old Nine and Old Ten would have scolded him, but seeing the sadness on their starling's face, Old Nine and Old Ten could not say anything, and could only suppress their emotions!
Lao Shi said with a slightly depressed tone: "Myna..., go back. Since you have chosen to let go, then let it go completely! From now on, you and Yunyan are people on two different paths, and there is no connection between you and Yunyan. Don't worry about her anymore. She doesn't need you to worry about her!"
The words of the Tenth Brother were like a thorn that pierced through the Eighth Brother's heart, making his eyes even redder, and even bloodshot in his eyeballs!
Lao Ba swallowed all the pain in his heart and said in a hoarse voice: "Okay..., go back! You two don't have to worry about me, I'm just not used to it. I will get used to it after a long time!"
The Ninth and Tenth Brothers felt even more sad when they saw the forced smile of the Eighth Brother. They cursed Yunyan in their hearts and thought she was a disaster. There were so many people in the world, why did she come to harm them, the Eighth Brothers?
Since he had already faked his death and left, why did he appear again in front of their starlings? Couldn't he have died completely? Why did he come to hurt their starlings again and again?
Lao Jiu and Lao Shi didn’t know what sins their Eighth Brother had committed in his previous life, or maybe he owed Yunyan something in his previous life, so she came to collect the debt in this life!
Lao Ba: "Please open your umbrellas! I want to be alone!"
After saying this, Lao Ba walked into the rain, letting the raindrops fall on his body!
When Lao Jiu saw Lao Ba walking into the rain, he hurried forward and wanted to hold an umbrella for Lao Ba again. However, before he took a step, he was stopped by Lao Shi beside him. Lao Jiu turned his head to look at Lao Shi in confusion.
Old Eleven looked at his father's back with an uneasy look on his face and said calmly, "Ninth Brother..., this rain comes just in time!"
When Old Nine heard what Old Ten said, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Old Eight's sad figure, and said with a sad tone: "It's quite timely!"
In this way, Lao Ba walked in front in the rain, while Lao Jiu and Lao Shi followed behind Lao Ba with umbrellas in hand!
Passersby running on the street, looking at this strange scene, all wondered if this person was crazy? It was raining so hard, but he didn't hide from the rain and was walking in the rain. If he didn't have an umbrella, it would be fine. Looking at that group of people, they didn't look like anyone who needed an umbrella!
However, no matter how curious they are, it is none of their business. They still understand that curiosity kills the cat. After all, Lao Ba and the others don’t look like ordinary people!
The fourth sister stood at the door, watching the eighth sister who was caught in the rain, and walked back slowly without performing. She sighed deeply. She had known for a long time that Yunyan and the eighth sister would not have a good ending. If there was a good ending, perhaps Yunyan would have followed him back to the capital two years ago. What a pity...!
Lao Ba simply ignored Lao Si who was standing at the door and walked in expressionlessly. No matter who greeted him or said something, Lao Ba acted as if he didn't hear anything!
The fourth one stopped the ninth and tenth ones, frowned, and said coldly, "Send them away!"
Lao Jiu just responded weakly and then said nothing more!
Lao Jiu: “Hmm…!”
The fourth child looked at the ninth and tenth children. Their clothes were soaked. His brows furrowed even more tightly. He scolded them, "Why did you get your clothes wet? Okay, go back and change your clothes! Oh, by the way, it's raining too hard. We won't leave today. We'll leave tomorrow!"
The Ninth and Tenth Brothers didn't say anything else. They just nodded listlessly, then walked around the Fourth Brother and went in!
The fourth brother also came in with a sigh, and ordered someone to make a bowl of ginger soup for the eighth brother and the others. He watched them drink it before going back to take care of his own business!
When Lao Ba was alone, he held tightly in his hand the jade pendant given to him by Yunyan. As for his jade pendant, Lao Ba gave it to Yunyan again. This time, Lao Ba gave it in a joking tone. Lao Ba told Yunyan that if she lost the jade pendant he gave her again, he would never let her off easily!
Since that day, Lao Ba has started coughing. He asked someone to see him, but the doctor just said he had a cold and that he would be fine after taking some medicine. However, unexpectedly, his cough became more and more severe!
