Shen Zhichu loved him wholeheartedly for sixteen years, yet she was asked to leave empty-handed, just to make room for the "white moonlight" in his heart.
Li Jingshen thought he would...
Chapter 562 The Gentleness of the Bai Family
What is Chen Zhichu to Bai Qiujing? Perhaps he is the only sun in the sky, the rainbow that is hard to see after the storm, the sea that whales need, and the flame that moths rush towards regardless of everything.
He was also obsessed with Shen Zhichu, wanting to possess her and wanting her to stay by his side forever.
But if Chen Zhichu wanted to leave, due to his inferiority complex, he couldn't even reach out to stop him.
If there is only one rose left in the world, and that rose only lasts for a month, Li Jingshen will seal it up when the rose is in full bloom to preserve the most beautiful moment, while Bai Qiujing will watch the rose bloom and fade, and accompany it until it withers and dies. This is the difference between the two people's views on love.
Bai Qiujing suddenly became like this because he was in a state of anxiety and had lost his sense of security. His brain had been injured, and now he had become a bit like Bai Qiushi.
Shen Zhichu didn't want him to become a fool again, but she didn't know what to do. Should she use hypnosis to make Bai Qiujing lose his memory again and forget her?
Shen Zhichu could no longer hear what Bai's mother said next. She sat on the sofa, and her hands had grown cold without her realizing it.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and it was dark before six o'clock.
Shen Zhichu stood up: "Mom, I want to go back."
"What are you going back for? Stay for dinner. I'll ask Qiu Jing to come over."
"No, he's waiting for me at home."
Shen Zhichu stood up and was about to leave when Bai Qiujing called: "Are you with your parents?"
"Yes, I'm just about to go back." When Shen Zhichu heard his voice, she didn't know why her body suddenly felt warm, and her heavy mood suddenly relaxed. She tilted her head and put her ear close to the phone, as if she could hear his voice more clearly this way.
"It's raining outside, I'll pick you up."
Shen Zhichu glanced outside. It wasn't raining where she was. "It's not raining where I am. How about I take a taxi back?"
"I'm already on my way. By the way, would you like some milk tea? I'll bring it to you when I pass by."
"Yeah, okay."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Zhichu saw Bai's mother listening to her.
"Qiu Jing called?"
Shen Zhichu said truthfully: "Yes, he said he would come to pick me up."
Bai's mother said, "Then we can have dinner here. I'll ask Auntie to cook."
"Let's wait until he arrives."
Shen Zhichu thought that Bai Qiujing would take a long time to arrive, but he didn't expect that after only waiting for seven or eight minutes, he heard the sound of a car stopping outside.
Bai Qiujing came in dusty and exhausted. He didn't bring an umbrella, his coat was soaked, and his hair was a mess. He held a cup of hot milk tea in his hand and handed it to Shen Zhichu, "Here."
Shen Zhichu took it, and the milk tea warmed his palms all the way to his heart. It was raining so hard outside that Bai Qiujing was soaked, but there was not a single rain stain on the milk tea cup.
Bai Qiujing not only bought milk tea but also brought a scarf. He knew that Shen Zhichu didn't have the habit of wearing a scarf at all times. He was obviously afraid of the cold, but didn't know how to keep warm.
Shen Zhichu held the milk tea in one hand and threw himself into his arms. When the two of them bumped into each other, the uneasiness in his heart suddenly became at ease.
Bai Qiujing lowered his head, his brows and eyes were gentle, and there was a slight smile in his deep brown pupils, as if to melt the ice and snow.
Bai Qiujing subconsciously hugged him tightly and rubbed her soft long hair: "Let's go home."
"Aren't you going to stay for dinner?" Bai's mother asked.
Bai Qiujing said, "It's too late to stay for dinner. It's winter now and too cold."
"It's not like there's no room for you to sleep."
"I know my bed."
In fact, it was Shen Zhichu who was used to his bed. How could Bai's mother not know this? She couldn't persuade him and waved him away: "Okay, take Chuchu back, don't catch a cold." Turning to Shen Zhichu, she said, "Chuchu, come and play when you have time, and stay a few more days."
Shen Zhichu said “hmm”.
Bai Qiujing took Shen Zhichu to the door and put the scarf on her, leaving no gaps and making sure that no cold wind could get in before taking her out.
Bai's mother stood inside and watched them leave. Seeing the two of them snuggling together under the dim light, tears unknowingly welled up in the corners of her eyes.
It’s not easy. I have been through so much to get this peaceful life.
Father Bai sat in a wheelchair and called her in: "Don't stand at the door. Aren't you cold? Come in."
Mother Bai turned around and walked to Father Bai, squatted on the ground and leaned on his knees, her eyes still a little red.
Father Bai knew that she was thinking about sad things again. For example, his legs were difficult to stand up, and even if he stood up, they would not be as flexible as before.
"If I hadn't asked you to help Jing Shen gain control of the Li family, perhaps you wouldn't be in the hospital and wouldn't be sitting in a wheelchair."
"I'm not helping him. Lu Tingchuan hurt Qiu Jing and deceived us. Naturally, I won't let him go. It's Li Jingshen's ability to get all the property of the Li family in J City."
The Li family is good at teaching people how to succeed, but they don’t know how to teach people how to be human beings and how to love others.
Seeing his lover's tears, Father Bai frantically wiped her tears and clumsily comforted her, "Don't cry. Actually, there are advantages to being in a wheelchair. I don't have to kneel on the washboard as punishment."
Outside, Shen Zhichu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt.
Bai Qiujing inserted the car key and asked, "Why did you suddenly come here today?"
Bai Qiujing didn't know that he was "sick". He only knew that he had been having nightmares recently, and he was in a bad mood and had no appetite. But he didn't know that he was mentally disordered and would even sleepwalk unconsciously at night, sit by the bed in a daze, and remember nothing when he woke up.
Shen Zhichu hadn't thought of telling Bai Qiujing that he was "sick." She said, "We're discussing the wedding. My parents have chosen a few dates. Which one do you want to choose?"
