Chapter 532: That Day Was Unlucky

"Yes." Bai Qiujing gently put his hand on her head and rubbed it. The wind outside was too strong, and even if she was wrapped in a scarf, the wind would still blow in.

Bai Qiujing tidied up Shen Zhichu's scarf and said as he did so: "There will be more and more people around you who are gentle to you."

Shen Zhichu laughed softly, stretched out her hand and grabbed Bai Qiujing's hand. She was wrong... There would not be more and more people appearing in her world. Now she only had Bai Qiujing, and Bai Qiujing would have many gentle people around him. The future was long, and he deserved to be loved.

If one day I disappear, Bai Qiujing, I hope you can live well and complete the things I haven't done for me.

I like the warm winter sun, the twilight and evening smoke, the green fields and brown leaves, and a person named Bai Qiujing.

I like to look for cicadas in winter, listen to the whale calls at the beach in summer, like the seagulls spreading their wings, and the afterglow of the sunset on the sea... I like to have someone accompany me to see all the scenery in this world, but if I am gone, please see everything in this world for me.

"Chu Chu, what's wrong with you?" Bai Qiujing was thoughtful, and although it was only a fleeting moment, he accurately caught the flash of tears in Shen Zhichu's eyes.

"I just wonder how I could be so lucky." Shen Zhichu took a deep breath and suppressed his muffled voice, "I'm so lucky to meet you."

…….

Bai Qiujing finally managed to free up a day, and at five in the afternoon the two of them went to the hospital to see Bai's father.

Mr. Bai's condition is the same as yesterday, not much different, neither better nor worse.

Shen Zhichu passed by a flower shop and bought a bunch of sunflowers, placed them by the hospital window, and watched the family chatting.

Bai's mother suddenly mentioned the wedding.

"Yesterday I asked Zhichu what kind of wedding she wanted, and she said a Chinese style one. By the way, I recently looked at the date, and it might be held at the end of December, which is more than a month away. We don't need to invite many people, just a few relatives and friends." Bai's mother looked at Shen Zhichu who was standing by the window and stroking the sunflower, and asked.

"Chu Chu, what do you think about holding the wedding on Christmas Day?"

December 25th, this year marks the sixth anniversary of her death.

Before Shen Zhichu could say anything, Bai Qiujing said, "That day was unlucky. Let's change it later."

Shen Zhichu said, "Actually... we don't have to have a wedding."

"No." Bai's mother, Bai's father, and Bai Qiujing spoke together, their eyes still locked on her.

"Getting married is the most important thing for a woman. How can you not have a wedding? Even if you have no money, you must sell everything you have to hold a wedding." said Bai's mother.

Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing did not stay in the hospital for long. Bai's father went to bed early and asked Shen Zhichu to go back before 8 o'clock in the evening.

Bai's mother sent the two of them out, holding Shen Zhichu's hand and treating her like her own daughter. As they walked, she reminded Bai Qiujing: "You can take good care of Zhichu and don't let her get tired."

"I know everything without you telling me, Mom. Just send it here. Take good care of yourself."

"Yeah." Bai's mother stood at the door of the hospital. The wind was a bit strong outside. She felt cold even without going out. She used her hands to adjust her coat and wrap it tightly around her.

Shen Zhichu turned around and waved: "Mom, go back quickly, it's cold outside."

"I understand. Be safe on your way back. Send me a text message when you get home."

Bai's mother said she was going back, but she just stood there and watched the two of them leave until they got in the car.

Shen Zhichu clearly felt the gazes behind him, and after getting into the car, he looked at the hospital gate through the rearview mirror.

Thinking about the accident that happened today when playing the bungee jumping machine, if Bai Qiujing had not paid attention to the unfastening of the safety belt and had not held the safety railing with his hands, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Several hours had passed since the incident, but whenever Shen Zhichu thought of that scene and the text message on her phone, she felt a chill all over her body.

This time, no one abandoned her, but she could not forgive herself for Bai Qiujing or anyone in the Bai family who had an accident because of her.

Aunt Li and Uncle Bai were so good to her, how could she bear to make them sad?

Shen Zhichu looked out the window: "She hasn't gone in yet, she's watching over there. Mom can't bear to leave you. When you're done with your work and have time, spend more time with her. She's a good mother."

She said "you" instead of "we"

Bai Qiujing noticed it and always felt that there was something else behind Shen Zhichu's words, but he didn't ask much. After a tiring day, he hugged Shen Zhichu in his arms and said "Hmm" in a low voice.

The car had a brake problem halfway through the drive. The driver discovered it in time and pulled the car over to the side to avoid an accident.

It’s hard not to pay attention when two accidents happen in one day.

Bai Qiujing frowned: "No regular inspection and maintenance?"

The driver explained: "I just took it to the car shop for a checkup last week, so there shouldn't be any problems..." He was also quite puzzled.

Bai Qiujing used to drive this car frequently, but later he asked the driver to take it for inspection and maintenance, and he drove another one. The car he drove back last night had a storm and the body of the car was too dirty, so it was towed to the car wash for cleaning today. Since there was no car available, he called the driver.

Shen Zhichu, who was standing by, listened to their conversation and exerted a little force with his hands.

There was a problem with the brakes and I couldn't drive anymore. Fortunately, I was not far from home, so I hailed a taxi on the side of the road and went back.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Bai Qiujing saw that Shen Zhichu's face turned pale.

Shen Zhichu cheered up, a pale smile appeared on his haggard face: "Maybe I'm tired today, I'm a little sleepy."

Bai Qiujing said, "Then go back and go to bed early."

Not only was he tired, he was probably frightened as well.

The first thing Bai Qiujing did when he got home was to run some hot water for Shen Zhichu and wait for her to find her pajamas and take a hot bath.

People are prone to nightmares when they are frightened. Bai Qiujing went to heat up a cup of hot milk and handed it to Chen Zhichu after she came out of the bath.

But a person's nerves, which were as tense as a string, could not be relieved by drinking a cup of hot milk, and Shen Zhichu still had a nightmare.

She dreamed that she and Bai Qiujing defeated the virus, but could not escape accidents again and again, and finally he died in front of her.

Shen Zhichu felt cold all over and woke up from the nightmare with a start.

As soon as she woke up, Bai Qiujing, who was sleeping beside her, also woke up. He reached out and turned on the light: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Hearing Bai Qiujing's voice, Shen Zhichu shrank into her arms and responded to him: "Bai Qiujing, I'm afraid something will happen to you. Promise me that you must be fine and don't get into trouble."

Bai Qiujing rubbed her long hair: "Nothing will happen to me. I will always be by your side."

"What kind of nightmare did you have? You're so scared." Bai Qiujing asked.

"I forgot." Shen Zhichu didn't answer, she hugged Bai Qiujing back.

"Just forget it, don't think about it."

Shen Zhichu woke up at dawn and couldn't fall asleep. She rested her head on Bai Qiujing's arm, watched Bai Qiujing yawning, and fell asleep soon.

It’s not that she didn’t want to tell Bai Qiujing about her nightmare, but such a nightmare was not suitable for Bai Qiujing to hear.

She looked at Bai Qiujing for a while, and when she saw that he was completely asleep, she propped herself up and kissed the corner of his lips, chuckling softly, "Such a horrible dream is not suitable for you to hear..."

She turned over, lay flat on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and muttered to herself: "Get up early tomorrow to make breakfast, otherwise you won't be able to eat it later..."

The next day, Shen Zhichu got up secretly before dawn and made breakfast for Bai Qiujing.

She added some other things into the milky white porridge, and after stirring it twice, nothing could be seen.

Bai Qiujing woke up and found that Shen Zhichu was not around. He called out twice but got no response. He was frightened and quickly got up and went downstairs. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the busy figure in the kitchen.

"Why are you up so early today?"

Shen Zhichu turned around: "I have nothing to do today, so I thought of making some breakfast for you, go wash up, and change clothes after dinner."

Shen Zhichu made fried dough sticks for breakfast, which were crispy when bitten.

Watching Bai Qiujing pick up the porridge in front of him and take a big sip, Shen Zhichu pursed his lips and lowered his eyes to hide all the emotions in his eyes.

"You'd better not drive today. Call a private car later. I'm not sure about your cars."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Chen Zhichu called the car, and it arrived after Bai Qiujing changed his clothes. He didn't know if it was because he was too tired recently, but he felt tired after a day of rest yesterday. Although he had just woken up, he felt sleepy again and his eyelids drooped uncontrollably.

"Are you going to work today?"

Shen Zhichu shook his head: "Have you forgotten that today is Saturday? I won't go to work on Saturday and will rest at home and wait for you to come back."
