Astral Flower-Chapter 557: Feng Yu Hua’s Past: First Meeting with Qing Shu Lian
"Huh? How do you know something like that?" Qing Shu Lian was a bit surprised. WIth how much mess this place is, he didn’t think that Nan Hua would be able to survey the place.
Nan Hua didn’t answer and walked back to their sleeping tents.
"This..." Qing Shu Lian blinked his eyes. He felt that Nan Hua was still the same cold and indifferent Nan Hua.
"Leave her be. She’ll explain everything to you later," Tang Si Qin said. He stretched his hand. "I’ll need to finish my work first, so excuse me."
With that, Tang Si Qin left unhurriedly.
Feng Yu Hua and Qing Shu Lian looked at each other and then Feng Yu Hua looked away. "Let’s go to the hill mentioned by Nan Hua."
She pointed in a direction, so they just followed the direction she pointed before and soon reached a small hill that Nan Hua mentioned. This hill allowed them to see the area quite clearly. Though, there was nothing much to see because the landslide basically changed the terrains in this place.
Feng Yu Hua sat on the rock and then looked into the distance, feeling somewhat at loss.
It was a bit embarrassing to be seen crying by the other three people, but she had learned to be thick skinned. Anyway, it didn’t really matter at all being a bit embarrassed when considering what she had done over the years.
Qing Shu Lian sat down not far beside Feng Yu Hua, also looking to the distance. The cool breeze in the morning seemed to be very comfortable today.
"Thank you," Feng Yu Hua said after a while. "Not just today but the previous time too."
"Um." Qing Shu Lian nodded.
The two of them had known each other for years mostly because they were paired a few times for missions. And in some other times, he was the one responsible for her equipment and weapons.
Even if it was not all of them, but it had allowed them to interact more in the past.
Though, neither one of them ever dared to step outside their relationship outside the missions, especially when there were others around them. Because if they dared to befriend the other from the organization, the organization would never pair them together again.
"Do you still remember our meetings in the past?" Feng Yu Hua asked, her tone was low.
"I do."
"What’s your impression of me?"
His impression?
Qing Shu Lian blinked his eyes as his mind drifted to the memory of the past when they met for the first time.
...
<Four years ago, Green Planet’s Corner Park>
The young Qing Shu Lian sat on the bench with a calm expression. His parents had just sold him out to an organization he didn’t know and he was forced to do their biddings. It has only been a few weeks and the young Qing Shu Lian already felt very tired.
Right now, Qing Shu Lian was only 13 years old and only recently got admitted to the junior high school.
It was also during this period of time that his talent in machinery got even more prominent, attracting the attention of people to him. Even if it was not particularly outstanding, it was still something that many other people might not be able to do in their entire life.
There was a message in his light brain, telling the young Qing Shu Lian to come to this park to deliver the specific weapon in his bag to someone else from the organization.
Up until now, the young Qing Shu Lian had only met with a few people from the organizations. And each and every single one of them were annoying men that made him wanted to kick their heads.
If not because his weak strength and also weaker physical capability, he would not have been forced to this point.
’Just where is that person?’ the young Qing Shu Lian swept his eyes across the park. Aside from some parents and children who were playing in the park, he really couldn’t see anyone who could possibly be the member of the organization.
After all, the young Qing Shu Lian didn’t know much about the organization as of yet.
He didn’t think that there would be any other children who were a member of the organization and possibly come to him for the mission. Because he knew very well that the weapons he had made were all made for the kill.
Guns, knives, and so on.
It was all dangerous weapons.
Thud!
A ball fell not far from the young Qing Shu Lian, prompting him to look down and saw that it was just an ordinary soccer ball.
"Hey little brother over there, do you want to play together?" A female voice entered his ear.
At this time, the young Qing Shu Lian raised his head and saw the young Feng Yu Hua. She was dressed in shirt and jacket plus a rather short pants. Her hands were tucked to her jacket pocket and she was holding a lollipop in her mouth when she was walking towards him.
The young Qing Shu Lian’s mind turned blank for a moment.
At this time, the young Feng Yu Hua was 20 centimeters or so taller than him. The young Qing Shu Lian hadn’t started his growth spurt yet, so he was still a bit short. Compared to the relatively mature of the young Feng Yu Hua, he did look like a little kid.
To be honest, their differences in age was only 2 years.
The young Feng Yu Hua was only 15 years old, but she did look a bit more developed compared to her peers. Added in the way she brought herself, she looked rather cool.
Her appearance made the young Qing Shu Lian a bit flustered. It was not everyday a beautiful sister would come to him.
"I... I’m not..."
"I’m just joking." the young Feng Yu Hua chuckled, amused at his response. "Do you have any box or some toy in that shape?"
Her question made the young Qing Shu Lian froze in his place.
