Chapter 373 I Failed Her

Chapter 373 I failed her

His narrow eyes were filled with shock, but he quickly hid the shock in his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "When did you guys go to Yonio?"

The old man heard these words, looking at the fog in front, his eyes darkened, he seemed to have been lost in his remembrance.

"My partner and I used to be travel enthusiasts, always like to go to different places and see different scenery."

"In our time, travel enthusiasts were not yet accepted by many people."

"Like me, for example, when I said I was going to be a travel enthusiast at that time, my parents just thought I was not doing my job and loitering."

When the old man said this, he sighed helplessly, and continued.

"Then I read about Yonio in the newspaper, and I heard that there was a reversal of four seasons in Yonio and the scenery was breathtaking, so I'd always wanted to go here to enjoy it."

"Maybe my old partner and I had a destiny, so it just so happened that when I came here, all those heavy fogs in front of me dissipated. And I saw the mountain Yonio just after the fog dissipated."

"I followed the trail all the way up the mountain, and the mountain was really beautiful. It was winter when I was there, and it was just summer on the mountain, and there were lots of dragonflies, butterflies, ladybugs, and some wildflowers of different colors along the road, all beautiful."

"In the mountains there are a lot of various plants that grow in the opposite season, even wild roses."

"I lingered over the mountain scenery while observing what was different about these plants. It was at this time that I met that her of mine."

As the old man spoke, he unconsciously silenced himself, and his mind wandered back to the first time he met his old partner.

Stefan kept watching him quietly and did not interrupt the old man's thoughts.

Only after a long time, the old man opened his mouth and continued to speak.

"At that time, my partner also came to Yonio out of admiration. If the fog hadn't dissipated that day, how would my partner and I have met?" Stefan smiled, his eyes darkened, and his thin lips pursed a little tighter.

He thought his acquaintance with Martha was also fate.

It was a pity that he was so blind that he didn't know that the person he liked was Martha all along.

He thought of this, his eyelids lowered, and a low pressure lingered around him.

The old man was old and mature enough to see through a lot. He could see Stefan's sadness at a glance.

But he did not poke, but reached out and took out a bottle of wine in his backpack and opened it.

Once the cap of the bottle of white wine was opened, a strong smell of alcohol lingered in the air.

Soon, the old man pulled out two disposable cups and poured a small half cup of white wine on both.

Then, the old man reached out and picked up two glasses of white wine, handing one to Stefan, who had just taken it when he heard a mellow voice ring out at his side. "It's cold all night in the mountains, drink the wine to warm up."

"Good."

Stefan responded indifferently and drank up the white wine in the cup in one gulp.

A glass of wine down, he immediately felt his body warmed up a lot.

After the old man finished drinking, he said with some nostalgia, "We traveled around in those days, and the white wine was an essential thing."

"Indeed."

Stefan answered in a low voice, and the time when Martha had just faked her death came unconsciously to his mind.

It was a very difficult time for him, and if he hadn't numbed himself with alcohol, he would have only ...

The old man instantly heard the frustration in the young man's tone, but he didn't ask, instead he asked about the purpose of the young man's visit. "Why do you want to go to Yonio?"

The young man did not seem to be a travel enthusiast, so he probably had another purpose for going to Yonio.

The old man just thought so, Stefan gave an answer.

"I want to go there to look for fireflies."

'If he finds the fireflies, he will be able to get Martha back.'

The old man saw the young man's sadness, but still did not understand why he was looking for fireflies at this time. "Why?"

"Because I failed a very good woman, and that person said she would forgive me as long as I could catch the fireflies."
