Chapter 17 Heart-to-Heart Talk
“Isn’t it right?” However, Huo Yutong was obviously prepared, “I heard Teacher Wang Yan say that you were angry because I was insulted, so you attacked him. Right?"
"...Hmm."
Tang Wulin felt embarrassed when his lie was exposed by a light sentence.
Huo Yutong couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you showing such an expression? You should feel proud."
She only found out the cause and effect of the matter after Wang Yan came to her at noon.
Today she specifically asked Tang Yaduo to prepare thirty fish for her, just to express her gratitude to Tang Wulin.
Ever since she was a child, she has always been the one being bullied.
Except for her mother, no one would help her. Tang Wulin was the first peer to lend a helping hand to her when she was isolated and helpless.
So although she didn't show it on the surface, she was actually very happy now.
She put her chin in her hands and asked:
"I heard from the teacher that the reason why you came to him was because you thought I cared about him. You want to know why I felt so attached to him. Do you care?"
Tang Wulin nodded.
"Well, let me tell you my story."
Huo Yutong looked at the stars in the sky, his eyes were confused, and he was lost in memories.
"My real name is actually not Huo Yutong. My original surname is Dai, and I am the biological daughter of Duke White Tiger..."
In the following time, through her narration, Tang Wulin Little by little, I learned about Huo Yutong’s past.
A girl who was born in a ducal palace and was bullied under the oppression of the duchess. Even her mother, the only one she could rely on, was beaten and bedridden. In the end, she could only run away from home alone to find a way to seek revenge. The image gradually emerged before his eyes.
And this girl’s figure overlapped with the petite girl in front of her as the story ended.
After telling the story, Tang Wulin fell into silence.
He has lived in a happy family since he was a child. Although his family background is not well-off and he learned about the disappearance of his parents some time ago, his childhood was generally happy.
However, Huo Yutong is different. According to her description, her life has been sinking in darkness so far, and it was only recently that she found a glimmer of light.
He could not imagine what this kind of life was like, but fortunately he could feel the emotions revealed in Huo Yutong's words.
When she talked about her mother, her words were full of tenderness; when she talked about the servants who bullied their mother and daughter, her tone was very cold; when she talked about the duchess and When wearing Huabin, the darkness revealed seemed to choose someone to devour...
After listening, Tang Wulin finally understood why Huo Yutong gritted his teeth like that when he mentioned the scumbag.
It’s not because she has been hurt by a scumbag, but because she is that scumbag’s daughter.
Perhaps when she sees a scumbag, she will think of her scumbag father who doesn't even know he has a ten-year-old daughter.
After being silent for a long time, Tang Wulin asked:
"Then what do you plan to do in the future?"
Huo Yutong replied without hesitation:
“I want to completely exterminate the White Tiger Duke lineage and make them disappear from this continent.”
“But your current strength is not enough. "You can't do this."
Tang Wulin's tone was very sad.
The reason why he said this was not only because Huo Yutong's talent was poor.
It is because he is a person from ten thousand years later, and he knows the future direction.
Even though he was only nine years old, he knew that in addition to the Sun and Moon Federation, the Star Luo Empire also remained, and the person who became the emperor was a descendant of the White Tiger Duke.
Looking at Huo Yutong's performance, she does not seem like someone who would give up revenge, so there is only one conclusion. She lost to reality and her revenge failed. "If you can't do it, you have to do it." Huo Yutong said firmly: "Even if I die, as long as I can bite a piece of meat from the Duke's Mansion, I will be satisfied."
Revenge against the Duke's Palace was what she had sworn before her mother's grave. No matter whether the outcome was success or failure, she would never give up on this matter as long as she was alive.
The ferocity in Huo Yutong's words made Tang Wulin silent again.
Since they met, his impression of Huo Yutong has always been that of a gentle, hard-working sister who always thinks of others. He never thought that she would speak in such a tone.
If you think about it carefully, the two of them don't understand each other at all. They both know very little about each other.
Under such circumstances, she was actually willing to tell him about her past. This trust was very valuable.
At least let her know the final outcome.
Thinking of this, Tang Wulin made up his mind and said:
"Sister Yutong, what I say next may sound untrue, but please believe me, I am absolutely right. Not a single lie."
Then he told Huo Yutong his past.
Huo Yutong has told him about her affairs, so he should reciprocate.
Actually speaking, the priority of keeping his past secret is far lower than that of Huo Yutong.
Even if Huo Yutong tells his story, there is a high probability that it will only be regarded as nonsense. If he tells Huo Yutong's story in turn, she may be sent by the Duke's Palace in a few days. Assassinated.
After all, there are only a handful of people who believe that Tang Wulin came to this era from ten thousand years later through the turbulence of time and space, but as long as the relevant people do some research, they can confirm that what Huo Yutong said is true.
“…”
This time it was Huo Yutong’s turn to fall into a daze after listening to the story.
It wasn't that she didn't want to believe Tang Wulin, it was just that what he said was too magical.
Traveling through time and space, even traveling through ten thousand years, plus the matter of the Golden Dragon King's seal, she only felt like she was listening to a novel.
If someone else said this to her, she would just think that the other person was joking with her and laugh it off.
But looking at Tang Wulin's serious expression, she knew that he was not telling lies.
This kid is not the kind of person who would talk nonsense at a time like this.
After struggling to digest what Tang Wulin said, Huo Yutong took a deep breath and said:
"Wulin, please don't ever tell anyone else besides me what you just said. Of course, I won't tell anyone else."
What Tang Wulin said was too heavyweight. , if she didn't represent her alone, she would even want to tell him about Tianmeng.
But fortunately, she was the only one who knew about it, and at most one silkworm. As long as she didn't tell, no one would know about it.
“I understand, I will also keep Sister Yutong’s affairs a secret for you.”
Tang Wulin nodded seriously.
“There’s no need to call me Sister Yutong, I’m only two years older than you.” Huo Yutong smiled bitterly and shook his head gently, “From now on, we will be companions who keep each other’s secrets. Just call me Yutong.”
“Okay, Yutong.”
Under the bright stars, Tang Wulin felt that the distance between him and Huo Yutong was getting closer. step.
Digression
Huo Niang’s current favorability towards each character
Dai Huabin: -95 (extremely disgusted, not -100 just because there is an even more disgusting duchess above)
Zhou Sichen: 5 (very interesting classmate, Tang Wulin's good friend)
Xiao Xiao: 15 (a roommate who has just met for a few days and has almost no communication)
Wang Yan: 20 (a gentle teacher)
Beibei and Tang Ya: 50 (gave her a new A benefactor who has known her for a short time)
Tang Wulin: 75 (The personality is very compatible with Huo Niang, he helped her beat up Dai Huabin, the only person who knows her past)
Generally favorable opinion is not good It is high because we have not known each other for a long time, less than ten days at most, and the passing line is 0 instead of 60. As long as the favorability is a positive number, it means that the impression is good.
By the way, I read the original work and found that Tang Wulin is the protagonist whose emotional growth is closest to that of a normal person in the first three films.
Tang Sanyi, a time traveler, has no emotional growth at all. In the early stage, Lao Huo was pure wood, and in the later stage, the emotional changes were too abrupt (brothers turned into girlfriends instantly). Only Tang Wulin had a detailed story from an innocent little virgin to a master of love. Transformation process (when I saw my senior sister blushing when I was nine years old, I couldn’t stop being teased by Mu Xi, but later on I became more comfortable with girls’ affection)
