Chapter 402 Reunion
New York, at four o'clock in the morning, at Riven's home.
At this time, Ruiwen, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up like an electric shock. A strange light flashed in his eyes, as if he suddenly felt something.
She hurriedly got out of bed, and had no time to change clothes, and left the room in her thin pajamas - of course, there was no movement. The rest of the family were still asleep, and she silently penetrated through the walls of her room, entered the cold night sky, and moved in a certain direction along the street.
The hook-like moon gradually revealed its figure from behind the black clouds. The cold wind whistled into her thin pajamas, wiping her black hair, but she seemed to be unaware of it. There was no reason, but she could just feel that the person she was waiting for had returned.
Revan flew over the familiar streets and came back to the old house - Eric's residence. She had been here many times in the past four months, but only today, the bedroom of the house lit up again. The light of the incandescent lamp that shone through the window was so soft and full of hope in her eyes that she could not suppress her heartbeat.
She landed gently, approached the house step by step, penetrated the door and entered the house, and slowly came to the front of the bedroom door step by step.
Just like a dream, the person she was concerned about day and night was really here. When she noticed that she was coming, she turned her head unexpectedly and intersected her eyes.
Ruiwen suddenly felt that his breathing was rapid. He swallowed all the things he should have said, and could not squeeze out a single word.
She couldn't even tell if this was true.
A few seconds later, Eric smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I thought you were already asleep at this time and didn't want to disturb you... so I originally wanted to see you again tomorrow."
Ruiwen bit his lip and then said softly: "It's so late to come back."
"Yes, a little surprised." Eric said, "I'm really sorry, I worry you."
"Not particularly worried," she said lightly, but after a pause, her tone still loosened, "Welcome...back..."
Eric walked forward, gently reached out and held her in his arms, feeling her body so soft and warmth through a pajama.
"Really, I'm very sorry." Eric whispered in her ear, "but I promise I will definitely not leave you again in the future."
"I've heard people say it's best not to make guarantees that cannot be fulfilled... One day, you will have something you have to do, right?"
Eric said nothing because he knew she was right.
But Raven smiled immediately.
"It doesn't matter." She also whispered in Eric's ear, "I'm very happy if you have such an idea. No matter what you want to do in the future, I will definitely do my best to support you."
Eric's heart moved and looked at the girl seriously, and couldn't help but feel that she was more beautiful than she had in her impression.
"Thanks."
He couldn't help but lean over and kiss him. Ruiwen closed his eyes gently, without resisting.
Eric picked her up, put her on the bed, and leaned down. Revan's body was so light, as light as a child.
She still closed her eyes and clutched his clothes tightly with her hands, as if she was afraid that he would walk away again.
A few hours later, early in the morning.
Raven served a plate of pancakes on a plate and served it to the dining table with expressionless expression. Eric looked at the pancakes carefully and found that Raven must have put a lot of effort into this craft these days. At least it already had the characteristics and colors that a normal pancake should have, and it smelled quite attractive.
Eric picked up a piece and tasted it, and couldn't help but praise it sincerely: "It's delicious, it seems that you haven't been idle for a while."
Ruiwen smiled slightly: "I have been working hard too."
"Tell me, you're already college, right?"
"Well, right at the Imperial University in the city," she said, asking, "Where is Eric? Do you have any plans next?"
"Ah, I probably have decided," he said, smiling slightly. "I have been escaping all the time, but in the future, I will fight because that is me and the path I have been doomed. I have understood that the life as an ordinary person that I have refused to let go has actually gone far away from me, and that belongs to the past. People always have to look forward."
"Then I'll be with you too."
Eric smiled relaxedly.
"It's just my decision," Eric said. "You don't have to give up like me. I know you're a lot like going to college and entering society like ordinary people... that's your dream, right?"
Raven hesitated: "But..."
"It's okay." Eric smiled slightly, "No matter what, our relationship will not change. I will be very happy that you can finish the book with peace of mind."
Ruiwen lowered his head and stared at the table for a while, and finally couldn't help asking, "That, your body..."
Eric smiled slightly: "Have you noticed it anyway?"
Revan looked at him with some concern.
"It's okay." He touched her head for a long time, "I'm fine and I know my own affairs. The armor has indeed further integrated with me, but I am still me, and there is no change."
After hearing what he said, Raven nodded and said nothing more.
But is there really no change?
As he asked this in his heart, Eric himself couldn't give the answer.
Somewhere, in a room covered in darkness.
A circle of figures hidden in the dark sat around a round table. The light blue fluorescent released by the round table was the only light source in the room. The faces of the attendees were just hidden in the darkness that the light could not reach, highlighting the meeting with a very mysterious feeling.
Everyone who comes here has an extraordinary status, and the power and resources that each of them represents are enough to make waves in this world.
And they are still waiting for someone.
"bite."
The verification unlock sound rang in the dark, and the light entered the room from behind the opened door, illuminating the bare head of the man who appeared at the door.
"Luther." A person at the table said dissatisfiedly, "You're late."
"Sorry, everyone." Lex Luther walked to the table and sat down, "because there are a lot of matters to be handled."
"Hmph, it seems that becoming a government lackey makes you very busy."
Luther narrowed his eyes and looked at everyone else in the room. Everyone else at the table seemed to have cast dissatisfied eyes at him from the darkness.
