Chapter 1280 The Old Man, Unable to Escape
In this world, in the suburbs of the capital of the Dragon Kingdom.
Qin Zhe showed his figure in Shu Wenhan's courtyard, then frowned.
Due to various considerations, after the news he conveyed to Shu Wenhan was learned by the senior officials of the Dragon Kingdom, the latter had already withdrawn to the capital to sit in charge at the request of the senior officials.
Shu Wenhan, after all, is the patron saint of the Dragon Kingdom.
He really needs to be at the front if something happens.
But in the entire Dragon Kingdom, no one wanted anything to happen to him.
The patron saint of a country is not only a symbol of strength, but also the reassurance of countless practitioners in the country.
If the patron saint falls, both domestic practitioners and ordinary people will fall into endless panic.
Because of this, Qin Zhe and Shu Wenhan met several times in the mansion of the capital in the past half a month, and the place where he entered the inner world for the last time was also here.
However, at this moment, Shu Wenhan was not in the courtyard.
Quietly releasing the spiritual perception, completely covering the entire capital, Qin Zhe's brows became more and more wrinkled.
Within the capital, there was no aura of Shu Wenhan.
Where did he go?
Is there something going on in the country?
Just as he was wondering, the inner door of the main courtyard of the courtyard was pushed open with a "creak".
Qin Zhe froze when he heard the movement suddenly.
In Shu Wenhan's courtyard, there are very few people around.
And at this time, his spiritual perception covered the entire capital, and he didn't perceive anyone in the courtyard.
Frowning, looking back, a familiar figure came into view, causing Qin Zhe to be full of surprise.
The person who opened the door was stunned when he saw Qin Zhe suddenly, then he showed a bright smile on his face, and smiled lightly.
"Are you surprised to see me? Are you surprised?"
"..."
Qin Zhe was silent, and spoke after a while.
"Why are you here?"
Faced with such a question, the person inside the door showed a displeased expression and hummed.
"Why do I feel like you don't want to see me? It's been less than a year since we separated, do you have a new love or something?"
"..."
Qin Zhe was speechless.
The person standing inside the door at this moment...
It is none other than Catherine, the patron saint of the Northland.
Seeing Catherine again after nearly a year's absence, and at Shu Wenhan's mansion, Qin Zhe was very surprised and at the same time didn't know how to face her.
It can be said that he and Catherine kept cutting and arranging things.
Simple and ambiguous, it cannot be used to explain the relationship between the two.
Although both of them are more rational, they did not condone the development of the relationship between each other.
But the truth cannot be denied.
The unexpected encounter was so sudden that Qin Zhe was not mentally prepared for it.
Qin Zhe didn't speak.
Catherine didn't make a sound either.
The two looked at each other silently.
After an unknown amount of time, Catherine pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.
"There is an old saying in Longguo, that is, a long absence is better than a new marriage. We haven't seen each other for so long, so you have nothing to say to me?"
"..."
Qin Zhe remained silent.
The point is, he doesn't know what to say.
With Catherine, he didn't think about what to do.
Nearly a year has passed since the last farewell to the Northland, and to a certain extent, he has indeed forgotten about Catherine.
However, when he wanted to meet this time, he found that forgetting was only temporary.
What made him a little uneasy was that the Catherine standing in front of him at this moment was completely different from what he remembered.
As the patron saint of the Northland, although Catherine often looks like a little girl in private, she always has the proper posture and can give people an extremely reliable feeling all the time.
But right now, she seems to have let go of all her burdens and chooses to be a real woman.
Facing Qin Zhe's silence, her eyes were flushed, and crystal tears kept piling up.
Tears may fall at any time, but the expression on his face, as if he has been wronged, is really overwhelming.
Faced with such a scene, Qin Zhe was really a little uneasy.
He was worried that Catherine would cry at a disagreement.
With a slight cough, Qin Zhe spoke.
"Catherine, I don't mean anything else, I'm just surprised to see you."
"Then?"
Catherine wrinkled her lovely Joan's nose, held back the tears that were about to fall, bit her red lips and waited for his next words.
How can Qin Zhe have anything to say?
He just felt that if he didn't speak again, the situation might get out of control, so he said something boldly.
Seeing that Qin Zhe squeaked and remained silent, Catherine turned her head to the side and whispered.
"I retired."
retire?
Qin Zhe was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered that she had thought of retiring earlier than Shu Wenhan.
After dealing with the matter of the saints, Catherine had already resigned as the saint of the church, and decided to hand over the position of the patron saint.
"Good."
Qin Zhe scratched his head.
Just about to say something else, Catherine suddenly turned her head and disappeared in place.
Before Qin Zhe had time to react, he was hugged tightly all over his body.
Being "attacked" suddenly, Qin Zhe was stunned and flustered for no reason, not knowing whether to push her away or what to do.
At this time, a sob sounded.
"I miss you."
"..."
Qin Zhe froze and fell into a long silence.
He has always been a straight man of steel.
But actually, he's not that straight.
Even a tough guy has tenderness.
What's more, he is not a strong man, but his body is relatively strong?
Looking down at Catherine, who was tall and not much shorter than himself, but buried her head in her chest, Qin Zhe could feel the hot temperature in her arms, and at the same time feel that her skirt was getting wet.
With a secret sigh, Qin Zhe hesitantly stretched out his arms to wrap around Catherine's waist, and whispered silently.
"What's wrong with you?"
Catherine raised her eyes when she heard the sound, Joan twitched her nose twice, and snorted softly.
"It's all done, can I trouble you to hold it tighter?"
"..."
Qin Zhe was dumbfounded.
For some reason, he felt cheated.
But looking at the bright smile on Catherine's little face, he couldn't help tightening his arms as he said.
As if the strength of her waist had reached a standard that could satisfy her, Catherine twisted her body restlessly, and said with a hey smile.
"I am no longer the patron saint of the North Kingdom, and I am no longer the saint of the church. All the burdens are gone, and I can finally be myself. What is the pain? I can finally pursue my own happiness. You shouldn't be happy for me ?”
"..."
Qin Zhe was speechless.
Now, he could see it.
This is Catherine, completely giving up treatment!
The patron saint of the northern kingdom who always grasped the measure is gone forever.
Instead, there is a little woman who is full of pursuit of happiness.
this……
It is indeed something to be happy about.
If only as a friend, Qin Zhe is really happy for her.
The problem is obvious, the "happiness" that Catherine is clamoring for is him.
What can I do?
Cold sweat dripped down Qin Zhe's forehead.
He will be, not ordinary embarrassment.
The key point is that Catherine's method is true.
It doesn't matter if he understands what he said clearly, and he can't help but hug her into his arms, he is completely led by the nose!
If this continues, he may not have a chance to escape.
Just as she was at a loss, Catherine in her arms suddenly stood on tiptoe and brought her red lips up.
! ! !
Qin Zhe stared.
Before he could get rid of it, Catherine forcefully opened his teeth.
Faced with such an offensive, Qin Zhe stiffened as if he had been "critically hit", and closed his eyes silently.
Evasion is his forte.
But that's all there is to it...
He knew that he really couldn't escape this time.
