Chapter 242: Light Blooming in the Darkness

Shi Yin understood why Chen Siyan suddenly asked her to go downstairs for a walk. It seemed that he saw Zhou Yi coming and hurried over to cause trouble for him.

She tilted her head and looked at Shen Siyan, "Ah, the person is gone, Bai Lang doesn't seem to be in a good mood!"

Shen Siyan patted her head lightly, "Ah, little liar, you have really good eyesight, you can even see this!"

Shi Yin sneered and grabbed his arm to walk back, "Okay, mission accomplished, can I go back now?"

"certainly."

"I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Shen Siyan, thank you for taking care of me these days."

Shen Siyan listened to her slightly serious tone and said with a smile, "Is it a thank you from the heart?"

Shi Yin looked back at him, frowning slightly, "Of course! I'm actually very happy that you're willing to take care of me, and thank you very much. When there's a chance, I'll treat you to a meal!"

A wicked smile appeared on the corner of Shen Siyan's lips. "Invite me to dinner? What do you want to eat?"

"What do you want to eat?"

"Eating out is insincere; a family dinner is the highest form of hospitality."

"You want to eat what I made myself? Aren't you afraid that I'll poison you to death?"

Shen Siyan shrugged disapprovingly, “It’s quite interesting to die in your hands.”

Shi Yin was silent.

nerve.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'll take you back to the ward now. We'll go to the airport and fly to Country Y soon. When you're discharged tomorrow, I'll have Secretary Zhou find someone to take you home."

We were supposed to leave a few days ago, but we've been delayed for so many days. If we delay any further, there might be some trouble over there.

Shi Yin nodded and pressed the elevator door button, "Okay."

As the elevator went up, Shi Yin looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly asked, "Sweet Bean, is there any way to turn off the lights in case the elevator breaks down?"

Little Sweet Bean smiled slyly, "You want to do something bad! I'll be the first to support you! But this is also a golden finger~"

Three seconds later, the elevator suddenly stopped with a bang. The lights dimmed instantly, and even the emergency lights were completely dark. I had no idea where I was.

“Shen Siyan!”

Shi Yin exclaimed, and stumbled a few steps towards the corner when she heard footsteps. "Chen Siyan, where are you? I'm scared!"

She took small steps, caressing his figure, and sure enough, she found Shen Siyan squatting in the corner huddled in the corner.

Shi Yin vaguely touched his hair, and her small hand slid down slightly to touch his ear, "Chen Siyan, what's wrong with you?"

She could feel Shen Siyan trembling slightly. The man who had never had any weaknesses was now as fragile as a little animal that couldn't find its mother. Even the king who was so high and mighty in the business world and took people's lives could be so weak and embarrassed.

Shi Yin now really wanted Xiao Tiandou to turn on the lights so that she could take a good look at Shen Siyan's expression at the moment, but it was a pity.

She slowly squatted down, and before she could take the next step, she was hugged by Shen Siyan.

She didn't embrace him in a domineering manner, but buried her whole body in Shi Yin's arms, as if seeking warmth and security, which inexplicably aroused the softest maternal glow in the woman's heart.

This hug accidentally touched Shi Yin's wound. After hearing a muffled groan, Shen Siyan subconsciously loosened his grip.

Shi Yin gently stroked his back, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."

A gentle and delicate voice sounded, like the breeze in March, like a cloud flowing in the refreshing summer, instantly dispelling the darkness and bringing light.

"Are you afraid of the dark? Do you have your phone with you? I don't have my phone with me, and I can't find the emergency phone button in the elevator."

Shen Siyan shook his head in her arms.

Shi Yin was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "Then I'll go over and slowly look for the button. Can you stay here?"

Shen Siyan still shook his head and refused to let go.

It was as if he had grasped the only ray of light in the abyss, and would not let go of that only hope even if he was cut into pieces.

At this moment, Shi Yin is his only hope.

"The moon is bright, the wind is calm, and the leaves cover the window lattice."

"The chirping of the crickets is like the sound of the strings of a musical instrument."

"The piano plays softly, the tune is sweet, and the cradle rocks gently."

“…”

The melodious nursery rhyme sounded like the gurgling spring water flowing down the mountain, bringing a qualitative baptism to the soul.

This nursery rhyme was exactly the one that Chen Siyan sang that day.

Chen Siyan was stunned for a moment, listening to the gentle singing beside his ears, as if the darkness in his heart was driven away in an instant, and the dark clouds showed the light.

His restless heart gradually calmed down, but he still didn't let go of Shi Yin.

Feeling the restlessness in my heart dissipate bit by bit, I hugged her tighter with a little more force.

Shi Yin gently stroked his back to comfort him while singing a beautiful nursery rhyme.

Human nature actually has subconscious perceptions, but superficial rationality will deny this feeling, so many behaviors become subconscious.

Just like at this moment, after hearing his own singing, Shen Siyan's slightly trembling body gradually calmed down, but he still did not relax himself, but tightened it a little.

He trusted himself unconditionally at this moment and regarded himself as his support at that moment.

For someone like Shen Siyan, this is far from enough.

But it is only when this feeling accumulates little by little that his heart is swayed.

Twenty minutes later, Secretary Zhou and his men finally opened the faulty elevator.

The closed, dark, and narrow space finally saw light. Secretary Zhou took a look at the situation inside and immediately asked everyone to leave and not look inside.

"Mr. Shen, are you okay?"

Shi Yin stood up, took Shen Siyan's hand and pulled him up, then turned around calmly and planned to go out.

But in the next second, Shen Siyan suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her back.

Secretary Zhou turned around and walked out with his eyes half closed.

"What's wrong?"

The corner of Shen Siyan's mouth no longer had the smile that seemed to be smiling in the past. A dangerous light flashed in his eyes, and his tone was cold and deep.

"How do you know I'm afraid of the dark? My behavior in the elevator just now might have been due to claustrophobia, not just fear of the dark."

suspicious.

Shi Yin struggled to free herself from his hand. "You never turn off the lights when you go to bed these past few nights. I just subconsciously guessed that you were afraid of the dark. Or, do you think I've investigated you?"

She seemed a little annoyed, but she tried to calm down. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone that you're afraid of the dark. On the contrary, don't always threaten me with Wen Jin's parents!"

Shen Siyan looked at her pale face, glanced at her abdomen, and found no blood.

He suddenly scoffed, "I was just saying it casually, why are you taking it so seriously? Go and have some rest. I'll be back in a few days, wait for me."

"What are you waiting for?" she asked sarcastically. "Wait until you come back and suspect me of investigating you?"

Shen Siyan rubbed her hair, making the soft hair a mess, and said, "Wait for me to come back and eat your dark cuisine."

Shi Yin snorted coldly and left without saying a word.

Shen Siyan looked at her back and the smile on his lips disappeared little by little.
