Chapter 2339
The next second, a violent shock ran through the entire car and the airbag was ejected, hitting me hard on the head.
The car finally crashed into a tree in the woods before finally coming to a halt.
Before my brain completely lost consciousness, Murong Zhuan’s gnashing threat echoed in my ears, “If you dare to die, I will kill your child, Shen Yu, and the Shen family, the Mo family, kill everyone and have them bury you with them!”
“……”
When I regained consciousness, the bright light stung my eyes, almost thinking I had arrived in heaven, and when I opened them, it was the familiar chandelier.
I …… home?
Trying to look around, I turned my head, but saw the not unfamiliar back in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
I simply turned my face the other way and didn’t look at him.
A moment later, that ghostly, cold voice rang out, “You don’t want to see me that badly?”
I screwed up my eyebrows; he didn’t have eyes behind him.
“You really don’t have any backbone.” Murong Zhuan said again.
I still didn’t say anything, I just treated him like air.
“I’ll kill Fu Shen Yan.”
“You wouldn’t dare!” I blurted out, only to realize that I had fallen for his ploy and felt a wave of remorse.
Murong Zhuan gave a sneer of triumph and walked over to the bed, looking at me with a cold expression, “Having died once, now you don’t owe him anything and can stop loving him.”
“I’m sorry, I can’t do that.” I said stubbornly.
“That’s okay, I will help you, as long as you are willing.” Murong Zhuan suddenly became extremely patient, as if he was afraid of angering me, and his voice lowered, “The rating you gave us before, doesn’t count, from now on, I’m officially in fair competition with the Fu Shen Yan you remember.”
Trying to play a new trick again?
I stared at him half-heartedly, defiantly, “The time is no longer right, why should I give you another chance.”
“You will.” Murong Zhuan raised the corners of his mouth, his smile sincere and unlike him, “Time can erase everything and I will fill the rest of your life, Shen Shu, if you still have the slightest will to live, give me another chance, I won’t let you down.”
I have to say that Murong Zhuan is still fit for a false smile, he looks sincere and expectant now, like a lamb to the slaughter, with an ugly smile.
In this very ugly smile, it was as if I saw the hope of reuniting with Fu Shenyan.
Then looked at him in silence and did not refuse for a long time.
After a long silence, Murong Zhuan confirmed my answer, then once again revealed a child’s first love-like smile of delight, and stood by the bed for a long time before leaving.
After this, he stayed at Fu’s house, under the guise of looking after me.
He was barely hurt, so he waited around for everything, meekly and patiently.
He was supposed to take care of everything except the bathing, but I insisted and finally found another female caregiver.
For three days I lay in bed, and almost every late night Murong had to leave for longer and longer periods of time.
In the early hours of the fifth day, I woke up as usual, the bedroom light was not on, but there was a man sitting on a small stool next to the bed.
I thought it was Murong Zhuan and had little desire to deal with it. I made to turn over and prepared to pretend to sleep.
Soon, the bed behind me sank a little, and I figured it was probably Murong Zhuan trying to take advantage of me again, and as soon as his hand touched me, I spoke impatiently to spoil his fun, “I told you, I don’t like being forced into this.”
“Xiao Shu.” Who else could it be if it wasn’t Fu Shenyan?
“Wife.” He called again, holding me tighter in his hands, hard, like he was trying to rub me into his life.
Is this, like, a dream?
Chapter 2340
Tears slipped uncontrollably in a flash, and I dared not make any move for fear that I would not remember his temperature when I woke up from my dream.
“You’re so stupid, how could you not remember the secret between us, I really shouldn’t have told you the truth so early, I’m sorry.”
He buried his head in the nape of my neck, his coarse beard gently rubbing my cheek, and the next moment, hot teardrops fell into my ear, instantly igniting the emotions I was trying so hard to suppress.
“Fu Shen Yan!”
I was so greedy that I didn’t care that I would lose everything if I woke up, I turned over and hugged him back, burying my whole face in his chest and breathing in the familiar smell of his body greedily.
The bedroom was so dark that I couldn’t see his face, and the hand that rested on his back touched him twice more in a haphazard way, and the solid touch that came from my fingers made sure that this wasn’t an illusion.
“It’s really you!” I couldn’t care less about decency and decency and wrapped my arms around his neck.
In the darkness, my hand slid across his cheek and the face of Fu Shenyan in my mind’s eye became visible.
“Sloppy.” I laughed bitterly, joking about his not-so-long beard of green, imagining Fu Shen Yan’s overly mature look and couldn’t help but lose my smile.
Fu Shen Yan held the back of my head and pressed me into his arms, breathing a deep sigh of relief, “Thought you really didn’t want to live, you haven’t slept for the past few days.”
I listened to the tightness in my chest and a pang of heartache, stubbornly asking him to let go, “You came to see me, now you know I’m fine, go back and rest, I don’t want you to die from exhaustion instead of at Murong Zhuan’s hands.”
“Ten minutes, ten more minutes and I’ll be gone, I’m too tired, recharge my batteries, will you?”
He was clearly exhausted, but he was using a childish tone of voice, so I couldn’t help but let him do what he wanted.
He said he was recharging and resting, but a moment later he spoke again, “The day you had your accident, I was guarding the nearest safe exit from the emergency room, the kokura was loaded, and if you died, I would kill him first and then I would go with you.”
“And then even though you were out of danger, I still couldn’t rest easy, so I had to find something for Murong Zhuan to do every day, telling him to have to deal with it, until today, when I finally got the chance to see you, and I’m sorry I didn’t give you enough confidence.”
“I think you’ve been taking too many anti-depressants and it’s affecting your memory, Shu, I want to tell you myself that I believe in you, at all times, and that was all to dispel Murong Zhuan’s concerns, I just want you to live, so you must, must not hurt yourself again.”
When he said that, he seemed to drop the boulder and changed to a more comfortable position, pressing close to me.
“Also, the last time I used a wooden barn ……”
“Hello nagging Oh Master Fu~” I had long since burst into tears, how could I listen to this, I could only sniffle, interrupting his matter-of-fact dictum, cupping his lips together with both hands, then saying as if to show off, “You have to believe that if you’re a good actor, your wife won’t be any worse, whether beating myself with a wooden barn, or the last car accident, I calculated that it wouldn’t be fatal, I’m too scared to die to give up, please promise your wife that you’ll concentrate on fighting monsters and not get distracted, okay?”
Fu Shenyan didn’t answer, but raised his chin in an “uh-huh” manner.
“Okay?” After asking the question, he felt that something was wrong and remembered that he was blocking him, and only then did he consciously let go of his hand and set him free.
Fu Shen Yan sighed in fierce relief, “It looks like I’m more likely to die in your hands.”
“You’re not satisfied that you’ll die a ghost under the peony?” I retorted.
