Qiu Huai waited for a long time before he heard some movement at the door. He quickly raised his head and looked towards the door, the anticipation in his eyes almost bursting out.

Guo Hu was stunned for a long time when he heard the name of the person who came. He didn't expect that after such a long time, Qiu Yiwen's daughter was still alive!

But so what? He could handle bigger ones, let alone a girl in her twenties.

He walked to the door and asked the guard in a low voice.

"Is there anyone inside?"

The guard nodded, "Inside, sitting still."

Guo Hu nodded twice, relaxed his facial expression, forced a smile and pushed the door open.

"Uncle Guo!"

The moment Qiu Huai saw who was coming, she was stunned for a moment. She thought it was her father coming to pick her up.

I didn’t expect it would be my father’s good friend Guo Hu.

"Xiao Huai!"

Guo Hu's smile was filled with eagerness and surprise, as if Qiu Huai's arrival made him very happy.

He walked over to Qiu Huai and looked at him carefully, "Xiao Huai! It's really you! How did you find this place?!"

"Uncle Guo! It's a long story. Where is my dad?"

Qiu Huai asked anxiously, why did he feel uneasy when he should be happy to see an acquaintance?

"Don't worry, Xiao Huai. Your father is still busy inside. I'll take you to see him later."

Guo Hu spoke to her calmly.

"real!"

Qiu Huai stood up happily, dragging his heavy clothes and walked forward a few steps, "Uncle, can you take me to find him now!"

"Don't worry." Guo Hu sat on another bench. "He is in a meeting with the leader now. You will be able to see him after the meeting."

Qiu Huai sat back down again, feeling lost and mixed emotions.

'Didn't Dad know I was here to see him? Why didn't he come to pick me up in the past two years...'

Guo Hu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the little girl who was lowering her head not far away, and laughed in his heart: "Qiu Yiwen, Qiu Yiwen, if you die, your precious daughter will belong to me.

I will take good care of her for you. You must watch over her carefully in your grave!'

Qiu Huai was in a low mood and did not notice the obscene expression on his face.

"Xiao Huai, where have you been these past two years?"

Guo Hu's face showed a flawless smile again.

Qiu Huai's heart stagnated, and he looked up at him slightly, "Uncle, my father locked me in a room in the satellite shelter."

"Oh?" Guo Hu didn't expect to be in this place. Qiu Yiwen was playing tricks on him. No wonder he didn't find any trace of Qiu Huai in the base before.

"Uncle?" Qiu Huai was a little confused. Dad and Uncle Guo were very good friends, so how could he not know...

"Hahaha, uncle is just asking." Guo Hu changed the subject, "It's getting late, I'll take you to a place to rest, and then go find your dad."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out. Qiu Huai could only follow him, dragging his heavy clothes.

After Jiang Yuyao and Mu Youling left those people, they sat in the car with heavy faces.

"Ayao, according to what those people said, Qiu Huai's father, Qiu Yiwen, was murdered a year ago. If she enters the shelter now, isn't she just walking into a tiger's mouth?"

Mu Youling frowned, looking at the small pile of food on the back seat, feeling a little reluctant.

Jiang Yuyao started the car and drove towards the Jiuquan shelter.

Mu Youling was stunned, "Ayao, don't you blame me?" He didn't blame her for still thinking about saving people at this time...

Jiang Yuyao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "If you want to save me, I will accompany you." She said that no matter what You Ling wanted to do, she would not hesitate.

"Well, I'm not being kind-hearted! I'm doing this because she gave us some food!" Mu Youling coughed lightly and said in a serious tone.

Jiang Yuyao chuckled in the carriage, nodded and said with a smile: "Well, food is the first necessity of the people! I understand!"

Mu Youling snorted arrogantly, turned his head to look out the window, but clearly saw Jiang Yuyao's smiling reflection on the glass.

My heartbeat inexplicably quickened a bit, and I couldn't even suppress the noise at the corners of my mouth.

Guo Hu led the man to where he lived and said, "Xiao Huai, just wait here. I'll be back soon."

"Uncle, you are busy! I am waiting for dad here!"

Qiu Huai also felt embarrassed.

After Guo Hu left, Qiu Huai sat stiffly on the chair at the edge, his face looking slightly gloomy.

Not long after, Guo Hu came back, "Xiao Qiu! It's such a pity, your father is stuck with something and probably won't be able to come tonight."

"How could it be!" Qiu Huai stood up anxiously, "Uncle Guo, does my father really know that I came to see him?"

"Of course! I told him the first time you came!" Guo Hu said in a high-sounding manner, "Well, you take a rest first, and when he comes back, I will bring him to see you immediately."

"Uncle, you didn't tell my dad at all!" Qiu Huai's anxious expression gradually turned cold, "If he knew I was coming, he would definitely come to pick me up the first time!"

Guo Hu simply stopped pretending, "How boring, you guessed it so quickly."

When Qiu Huai saw that she had guessed correctly, her heart tightened, "Why! Why did you lie to me!" She didn't expect that this uncle who treated her so well would be like this!

"Because your father can never come to see you again." Guo Hu said calmly, with the evil in his eyes exposed.

"What do you mean!" Qiu Huai's face was filled with fear, and his inner anxiety was infinitely magnified. "What do you mean? Explain it clearly! What happened to Dad?"

She screamed at Guo Hu loudly and wanted to step forward to question him in desperation, but because of the clothes on her body, her center of gravity was unstable and she fell in front of him, looking even more embarrassed.

"Guo Hu! What happened to my father?" Qiu Huai stared at him fiercely and roared.

Guo Hu squatted in front of her, with a smile on his face, "Tsk tsk, you are so rude, you are just like your father."

"It's you, isn't it! When you first saw me, the first thing you asked was how I found this place, not why you were still alive! You knew I was still alive, so you weren't surprised to see me!"

Qiu Huai spoke every word with gritted teeth, she should have thought of it earlier!

"Where is my dad!" At this moment, she was like a wolfhound in the snow, staring fiercely at the hunting rifle in the hunter's hand.

"You'll never know where he is in your lifetime!" Guo Hu stood up and kicked Qiu Huai hard, but the kick was mostly blocked by the space suit she was wearing.

Qiu Huai held onto his kicking leg tightly with his backhand, "Tell me quickly! Where is my father!"

"Damn it, let me go!" Guo Hu couldn't break free, so he could only kick her head viciously with his other foot, kicking her every time he said it, without mercy.

Qiu Huai was dizzy from the headache, but he still held his legs tightly and kept muttering where his father was.

Guo Hu kicked several times in a row, then stopped panting, "You're quite resilient. I want to see how long you can hold out."

He was furious inside, wondering why he hadn't realized before that this girl was such a stubborn person.

Lift your foot again to gather strength.

Qiu Huai was kicked so hard that his nose and face were swollen. His entire left face was swollen, there were wounds all over the corners of his eyes, and his entire face was covered with blood.

The red is eye-catching.

He forced his eyelids open, his vision obscured by the blood that slid into his eye sockets, and he said firmly, "My dad! Where is he!"

"I'll take you to Qiu Yiwen right now!" Guo Hu couldn't bear it any longer. She was just a woman, and a woman with hidden dangers. Keeping her would only add to his troubles.

With a ferocious look on his face, he stepped down hard, "Go to hell!"

Qiu Huai closed his eyes weakly.

There was no pain, and she opened her eyes in surprise. She vaguely saw two figures in front of her, but she couldn't see who they were.

Guo Hu was horrified to find that he couldn't move!

No matter how hard I struggled, I just felt my whole body was sunk into the soft cotton and I couldn't move at all.

what happened!

He also heard the noise behind him and his eyes rolled in fear.

"Fortunately, we arrived in time!" Mu Youling looked at Qiu Huai who was beaten half to death on the ground, and felt a pang of fear in her heart. If she had arrived a step later, she would probably have died.

He quickly walked over and helped the man up from the ground, "Qiu Huai?"

When Qiu Huai heard the voice, he realized who the person was. He said with a weak voice, "Sister Mu! Why are you here?" Didn't they leave?

He raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and after some of the blood was wiped away, he could barely see the scene in front of him clearly. Mu Youling looked anxious.

"Sister Mu, it's okay. I'm not going to die yet." She panted softly, not wanting to make Mu Youling worry.

Then he looked at Jiang Yuyao who was not far away, but before he could say anything, his attention was attracted by Guo Hu who was standing motionless beside him.

!

Her eyes dilated unconsciously, and she thought she was hallucinating because she was beaten. She blinked several times before she was sure that Guo Hu really couldn't move!

"Him! What happened to him!"

He looked at Mu Youling in shock, only to find that she looked calm.

Qiu Huai asked carefully, "You did it?!"

Mu Youling nodded, "Ayao and I met a group of people outside, and learned from them that your father..."

Qiu Huai looked at her eagerly, his eyes moving in anticipation of her words.

Mu Youling pursed his lips and said, "Your father left a year ago."

As the words fell, the light in Qiu Huai's eyes instantly went out. He looked at the ground lifelessly, and clenched his hands into fists.

Tears flowed down along with blood.

"It's not that Dad won't come to pick me up..., it's that he can't come..."

Qiu Huai's heart was in constant pain, so painful that he could hardly breathe.

'Qiuqiu! Look what Daddy brought you!'

'Qiuqiu, Daddy will take you to the museum this weekend, okay?'

'Qiuqiu, you are the baby God gave to me and my mother. Dad and mom will love you forever...'

Scenes from her childhood to adulthood kept appearing in her mind like a kaleidoscope.

"Why!" Qiu Huai looked at Guo Hu with red eyes, took off the heavy protective suit with trembling hands, and walked to him step by step.

"Why did you lie to me!"

He slapped him hard in the face.

"Why did you use my dad to lie to me!" she yelled at the top of her lungs.

Mu Youling removed the ban on Guo Hu's mouth.

"Bitch!" After Guo Hu realized that he could speak, he cursed, "How dare you hit me!"

"Snapped-!"

Another slap, even harder than before.

Guo Hu's face was visibly red and swollen.

"Let me go! I will make you pay!"

He roared at Mu Youling who was behind Qiu Huai, "What have you done to me! You'd better let me go! Otherwise! None of you can leave this shelter!"

Although he kept cursing, a sense of fear grew in his heart.

Jiang Yuyao took out a 50-centimeter-long dagger from her backpack and handed it to Qiu Huai.

"Use this." The size is just right, neither killing nor living.

Qiu Huai looked at the dagger in her hand and took it with trembling hands, "Thank you."

Hold the knife handle tightly.

Guo Hu was frightened when he saw the dagger in her hand. "Xiao Huai! Let me go! I'll tell you everything!"

Qiu Huai put the dagger against his throat and said, "Tell me! How did my father die?"

"Yi Wen! Yi Wen brought people to look for you, but no one knows what happened. None of the people who went out came back."

Guo Hu spoke quickly, fearing that she would not be able to hold the knife steadily.

"You are lying!"

Mu Youling frowned, "It was obviously you who framed me!" She repeated what those people said.

Qiu Huai pressed the knife in his hand a little tighter, "You lied to me again!" His voice was hoarse and tears were welling up in his eyes.

"No, no, no! I've told you everything!" Guo Hu immediately begged for mercy, "It was obviously him! He refused to obey orders and insisted on taking people all the way to the satellite launch base. I was also thinking about the shelter!"

"So you killed him so you could take his place openly!"

Mu Youling continued his questioning aggressively.

Qiu Huai also understood the meaning of the words.

Her father did not give up on her. It was the man in front of her who killed her father!

"My father is so good to you! Why do you want to put him in an unjust situation!" Qiu Huai asked loudly. She really couldn't imagine how the usually gentle and polite Uncle Guo Hu could become like this!

"Good? Pah!" Guo Hu said with disdain, "Who needs his charity! If it weren't for him, I would have been the chief engineer long ago! Do I have to listen to his orders every day?"
