Vampire Family: The Empress's Growth Story

Chapter 101
Li Mu finally found Lawrence on the rooftop. He was lying on the edge of the wall overlooking the Nile River shrouded in night, his back looked a little lonely.

Lawrence seemed to have heard the noise, but he didn't turn his head. He just said in a hoarse voice, "I'll adjust it in two minutes. Has the list of escapees been confirmed?"

Li Mu said softly: "Is 2 minutes really enough?"

Lawrence immediately turned his face when he heard the voice, and asked in surprise, "Why is it you? I thought."

"I was just next to Catherine."

"Ha, sorry, I didn't pay attention." Lawrence's voice became lower and lower, and finally fell into silence.

This was the first time Li Mu saw him like this, so he walked straight forward a few steps, stood side by side with him, and said softly: "You know, I've been thinking about what you said to me this morning. I It’s the first time I’ve seen so many wounded patients, and it’s also the first time I’ve felt death so close, you know what I mean, the death of ordinary human beings. And I couldn’t tell the difference between alcohol, serum, saline, painkillers, and even vomited It’s a mess. I can’t comfort the child, I only gave him a candy, and it became the fuse for him to know the truth. Maybe you’re right, I can’t do anything.”

Lawrence sighed softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. I was just afraid that you would be in danger."

"I know, so I'm the one who should say I'm sorry. My stubbornness has caused you a lot of trouble, and I deliberately misinterpreted your concerns. In fact, I'm angry because you're right. I just don't see the big picture, so reckless I came here without considering the dangers and refugees, nor your feelings, but purely for myself. I only came because I wanted to see you. Sorry, I shouldn’t lose my temper with you. "

"I'm not mad at you, I'm just too busy today." So there's hardly any time to communicate.

Li Mu smiled lightly and said, "Me neither, and I want to understand one more thing."

"kindness?"

"The team of doctors I brought over performed 30 operations today. The supplies I brought over were enough to feed 50 refugee households for 10 days. This is also my willful contribution. I myself can't do anything, but At the moment when I just stepped on the rooftop, I was very glad that I came to Cairo willfully. I have no supernatural power, no pattern, and I don’t know your secrets. All I can do is have a heart that loves you, and then use all of it Strength is with you. And at that moment, if I hadn't come, even the last bit would be useless."

Lawrence turned around and looked straight into Li Mu's eyes, as if trying to find something out of it.In fact, he did find it. The firm and brave eyes in her eyes at this moment gave his panicked heart a focus.He didn't have a heartbeat, but he seemed to be able to hear the girl's heartbeat, thump, thump, so powerfully beating instead of his own.

It took a while for Lawrence to recover his voice: "You are not as bad as you said, in fact, you have always been excellent. It is normal to be uncomfortable with these things, because you have never been exposed to them. I don't want you to be involved."

"But I always want to grow up. Growing up by your side is the best choice I can think of."

"It's brutal."

"It makes you a good Lawrence, and it makes me a good one."

"I'm not good, just like what you saw today, I will also lose control of my emotions, and I will mess up the execution of very important plans, and I will more likely not take good care of you and lose you again. Like this I."

"Honey," Li Mu interrupted him with a smile, "I'll find it myself if I lose it."

"What if I can't find it? Just like my mother disappeared before my eyes, but I can't do anything? Do you know that my mother died in the plague created by the demon party. In order to achieve their own goals, I don't hesitate to use large-scale natural disasters to cover up my crimes. This earthquake is repeating the old tricks. I can only save people and save people. I was weak when my mother left, but now I am the patriarch of the blood clan. Still can't save that mother's life. You know, I look at that crying little boy as if I was looking at myself 400 years ago. After all these years, all abilities are fake, and I still can't change anything !"

Li Mu didn't say anything, just stretched out his arms and gently embraced Lawrence's slightly trembling body, until his chest calmed down little by little, then he spoke: "You are not as bad as you said. You are my father's closed disciple, you are the only blood clan who is not afraid of the sun, you can also use the magic of God. You are also the leader of the Bruhe patriarch who made the devil fear, and the four big devils let you kill three. If it weren't for you After so many years of chasing the Devil Party, they don't know how many innocent lives they will consume. Having said so much, you are so good, don't you know?"

Lawrence let out a helpless smile: "You are smart, and I will give back all the words I comforted you."

Li Mu raised his head from his embrace, and smiled: "You finally laughed! Oh, don't you want to hug me?"

Lawrence's last line of psychological defense was finally defeated. He wrapped his arms around Li Mu's waist, put his hands on her forehead and said with a smile, "You, sometimes you are weird, and sometimes you are cute and silly. There is nothing I can do about you!"

"How can I be stupid?"

"I have no secrets with you."

"what?"

"I didn't intend to hide my mother's matter from you, but I don't want to mention it."

Li Mu remembered the phrase "I don't know your secret" that he said just now.So.. "Are you explaining to me?"

"Cough, you only slept for four hours today, are you dizzy? You should go to bed early at night, you know?"

"How do you know I only slept for four hours?"

"And said you're not stupid."

"Em! You made Eminem look at me all the time?"

"Well. He seems very loyal to you."

"He has a good relationship with Sister Hua. We met at the trading center."

"You two are amazing to be able to make blood friends in that kind of place. Well, I'm going to perform a mission soon, you must sleep well, and pay attention to aftershocks or any suspicious movements. Amu will still guard you, ok? "

"Okay. I will be obedient, and the golden turtle will wear it at any time. By the way, Luo Jialiang said he couldn't come here in person, so I brought you a gold medal. But it's in my box, and I'll get it to you later. "

"That's actually the edict token of their clansmen, in case of emergency. Just keep it away."

"kindness."

"Then, I should go."

"Then you pay attention to safety."

"You too." Lawrence lifted Li Mu's face and pressed a kiss on her lips.His kiss was very light, as light as a feather, but it was enough to wipe away Li Mu's fatigue and nightmares all day long.

After an unknown amount of time, Lawrence released her: "Go to sleep, and call Catherine in by the way."

"Ah?" Li Mu turned to look at the gate of the rooftop, only to realize that Catherine was standing there at some point.She was holding a stack of papers in her hand, probably the list Lawrence mentioned at the beginning.Thinking that the kiss just now was seen by Catherine, she suddenly blushed, and hurried away with her head down.

Catherine waited until Li Mu left, strode up to the rooftop, nodded with Lawrence, and Lawrence nodded in greeting.Then the two fell directly from the wall of the roof, turning into two black shadows and disappearing in the wind.
