Astral Flower-Chapter 549: Hope
Feng Yu Hua couldn’t differentiate whether Nan Hua was lying or not.
But in this matter, there was no need for Nan Hua to lie, right?
"Is there anything that I need to do?" Feng Yu Hua changed the question. Since it would be useless for her to ask more to Nan Hua about this matter, she focused her attention on another matter.
"Wake up early, before dawn. You and Shu Lian." Nan Hua then walked in the direction of their tents where the others were also resting. The tents were put in a rather open place and there were only some cloths hanging to separate them.
But for these people who were already dead tired after a long time working, it was enough.
They only needed a place to sleep.
Feng Yu Hua looked at Nan Hua’s back thoughtfully and then informed Qing Shu Lian about their arrangement tomorrow.
’Wait, if it successful, does it mean...?’
Thinking about what they might do tomorrow, Feng Yu Hua felt a faint excitement and anticipation in her heart.
Is it would be what she was thinking right?
Feng Yu Hua took a deep breath and then made her way back. She felt that she might have some difficulty sleeping, but she had to force herself to sleep or tomorrow, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.
’Calm down...’
...
Qing Shu Lian, who received Feng Yu Hua’s message, froze in his place.
He looked at the message in his light brain and then closed the screen so as to prevent others from seeing it. He didn’t want to make trouble and caused others to know his secret message with Feng Yu Hua.
’Wake up early before dawn tomorrow, the operation is a success.’
A success.
It was the word that he had never expected to happen.
After the last two failures, Qing Shu Lian had expected that the difficulty was so high that it should have been impossible. After all, how many people wanted to try escaping from the organization countless times in the past?
But in the end, no one ever succeeded.
Or even if there was any, it had never been mentioned by the organization in the slightest bit. What was told to them was the countless failures that happened over the years, suppressing their desire and fighting spirits.
Those who tried to escape were by no means those who failed the organization’s training. In fact, many of them were excellent by the organization’s standard and could be considered to be very powerful.
But they all failed.
So when Nan Hua asked him to do these and prepare these things, Qing Shu Lian didn’t have much hope. He only thought ’what if’ in his mind. But in fact, he was already prepared for the worst situation.
Because even if they all had been living their entire life like this, was it too much to ask for at least a decent ending?
The ending that they prepared for themselves?
So he never had much hope.
But this information seemed to change everything.
Qing Shu Lian looked into the distance, his mind wandering to the time when he was still young and knew nothing. Tricked by his own parents and had to follow what they chose for him, he never had a chance to resist.
And if he wanted to continue living, he had to follow through this path.
Now, there might be another option for him.
The corner of Qing Shu Lian’s lips curled up slightly, showing a real genuine smile for the first time in the past few years.
The future he thought were nothing more than dream and willful thoughts might not be a complete dream after all.
...
Nan Hua made her way to the tent and picked an empty sheet to rest. The other students were already resting. Many of them were dirty, but they didn’t care too much because they were simply too tired.
With them having just watched the disaster that happened in front of them not long ago, they were not really in the mood to care about these things in the slightest bit.
Nan Hua sat by the bed, looking at the sky outside.
The wall was not covered by the cloth completely, allowing them to see the night sky.
And the night sky was covered in stars.
In the city, even if the technology had advanced, the pollution problems had never actually ended yet. There were still many that was left, including light pollution, making it impossible to see so many stars.
Only in the outskirts would it be possible to see some stars.
Like now.
’So, it’s really successful.’
Nan Hua lowered her head and looked at her hand.
She was calm on the surface, but only she knew that her heart was not exactly that calm. The move that she did would definitely change many things in the organizations if it were to be publicized.
Because it meant that those who had rebellious thoughts towards the organization could actually escape in the end.
But at the same time, Nan Hua knew that it was not simple.
Everyone in the organization was taught to only trust themselves and not others. They were taught and given examples about what kind of end would they face should they work together.
Perhaps, it was because the organization knew very well that if they did cooperate with each other, what they had learned over the years could actually help them to escape from the organization.
Thus, the seeds of distrust was planted in their heart.
This way, they would never had a chance to escape from the organization and would forever stay there until the rest of their lives.
Nan Hua slowly closed her eyes, going to sleep.
Tomorrow, it would be a long day for her. She had to be in her top condition to be able to face everything.
This is not yet the end.
There were still many things to be done to ensure the plan could be completed successfully.
