Chapter 221 The Door Must Be Locked

Su Li's emotions gradually calmed down. How could she not understand what Fu Jinzhou had just meant?

Such a cold and indifferent person suddenly revealed his worldly desires, which made her unable to react.

She had never felt so lucky and satisfied with her rebirth as she did at this moment.

If it were before, she would feel that she lived for revenge.

But now it’s different. She is very glad that she has the opportunity to know that there is always someone who cherishes her and loves her as much as before.

And she once kept this person in her heart.

Su Li leaned on the bed, the smile on her lips still lingering.

She was completely unaware that danger was quietly approaching her.

Zhang Zhicheng looked at the light coming through the crack of Su Li's door and smiled complacently with his lips curved.

"You bitch, you ruined Xinran, and you're still flirting with Fu Jinzhou here. God is unfair, I'm here to punish you."

He thought to himself, quietly put down his things, and left quietly.

Su Li was the center of attention in the factory today. The factory director was grateful to her, and those who had previously spoken ill of her began to praise her, which made Zhang Zhicheng very unhappy.

How could a woman who sent her husband to prison and drove people crazy have so much?

Zhao Xinran said that Su Li was most afraid of snakes, so let her enjoy it for a while. It would take a few minutes for Fu Jinzhou to come back.

…

Su Li looked at the night outside the window, her heart calmed down, and her gaze gradually became firm.

In this life, she doesn't want to have any regrets, she wants to hold on to this hard-earned relationship.

As if she had figured it out, or made a decision, Su Li smiled and got up to turn off the lights, preparing to go to bed.

The moment she raised her hand, she caught a glimpse of a strange shadow out of the corner of her eye.

She suddenly shuddered and turned to look at an unusual shadow.

A black and brown snake, with its head raised and tongue sticking out, was slowly approaching her.

"ah!"

Su Li screamed in fright, jumped back onto the bed, wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and trembled uncontrollably.

What she feared most was snakes. These cold and slippery creatures filled her with fear from the bottom of her heart.

At this moment, the snake was in her room, just a few steps away from her.

Su Li's heart was in her throat. She stared at the snake, afraid that it would suddenly pounce on her.

"Fu Jinzhou, Fu Jinzhou...save me..."

Her voice was trembling and she was crying as she subconsciously called out Fu Jinzhou's name.

In the distance, Fu Jinzhou was sitting on a high platform smoking. The night breeze blew away the heat in his heart, and his whole body merged into one with the night.

Kang Ping sat not far behind him, looking at him in confusion.

I can't understand why he obviously likes Sister Su so much, so why doesn't he stay with her and instead comes here to get some fresh air.

Watching him smoking alone, I felt inexplicably distressed.

Fu Jinzhou is just like that. He keeps things to himself and never speaks out.

If Kang Ping hadn't been used to him being like this over the years, he would have been worried about him.

Someone who had been sitting quietly suddenly threw away the cigarette in his hand.

Fu Jinzhou stood up suddenly. He vaguely heard a shout, as if someone was calling his name.

This voice... sounds like Su Li's!

Thinking of the previous experience with the wild wolf, Fu Jinzhou's heart tightened and he ran towards the factory.

Seeing this, Kang Ping hurriedly followed.

"Brother Fu, what's wrong?"

"I think I heard Su Li calling me!"

Fu Jinzhou didn't even turn his head, his voice was urgent.

The two ran all the way and rushed into the factory.

"Fu Jinzhou..."

The crying voice was full of fear and helplessness.

This time, Fu Jinzhou heard it clearly. The shrill cry was indeed from Su Li.

He was extremely anxious. He took two steps at a time, rushed to Su Li's door, and kicked it open.

"Su Li!"

He shouted and rushed in.

The scene inside the house made Fu Jinzhou's pupils shrink suddenly.

Su Li curled up on the bed, her face pale and her whole body trembling.

A big snake was coiled in front of the bed, with its head raised and tongue sticking out, staring at Su Li with a fierce look.

Fu Jinzhou didn't have time to think about it. He rushed forward, grabbed the snake's vital point and squeezed it hard.

The snake felt pain and twisted its body, trying to break free.

Veins bulged on Fu Jinzhou's hands as he gripped the snake's vital points tightly, not giving it any chance to resist.

Kang Ping followed closely behind, rushed into the house, and was also shocked when he saw this scene.

"Brother Fu, I'm coming!"

He hurried forward, took the snake from Fu Jinzhou's hand, found a sack, and put the snake in it.

Fu Jinzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly walked to the bed and hugged Su Li tightly in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay..."

He comforted her softly, feeling distressed and blaming himself.

Su Li hugged Fu Jinzhou's waist tightly, her body still trembling slightly.

She buried her head in his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, and then she slowly calmed down.

"I'm afraid of snakes. Snakes are what I fear the most. Why do snakes exist?"

The tears on Su Li's face had not dried yet, and she was still very emotional when she spoke.

Fu Jinzhou patted her back, rested his chin on the top of her head, and soothed her softly, "It's okay, I'm here."

When Kang Ping came back after throwing the snake away, he opened his mouth in shock when he saw this scene.

Then he helped them close the door with a smile.

At first he was unwilling to live in the factory. The factory dormitory was some distance away from here. Fu Jinzhou didn't want to waste time, so he found two rooms here.

He used to think this place was bad, just the two of them. But now Kang Ping no longer thinks so. This is really a good place, a good place for them to be alone with each other.

Su Li finally calmed down after holding Fu Jinzhou. She was really scared by the snake just now.

The year she went to the countryside in Daliu Village, she went up the mountain to cut grass for pigs. The green grass was very lush and she was completely unprepared. Just after she cut twice, a snake suddenly rushed out and flew up towards her face.

It didn't reach her face, but instead wrapped around her neck. She would never forget the slippery feeling.

Fortunately, the snake was not poisonous, otherwise she would have confessed that day.

Although her life was not in danger, she was still so scared that she had a fever for two days after returning home.

From then on, snakes left a shadow in her heart. She couldn't bear to look at them, let alone look at them from such a close distance!

Fu Jinzhou raised his hand to wipe the tears from Su Li's face, then laid her down.

"Sleep peacefully, there will be no more snakes."

Su Li, however, held onto him tightly and wouldn't let go. "What if it happens again?"

She looked at Fu Jinzhou pitifully, her voice soft and gentle.

Fu Jinzhou watched her helplessly pry open her hands that were holding him, one by one. Every time he pried open a hand, Su Li became more nervous.

Without Su Li's restraint, Fu Jinzhou stood up.

"The door must be locked."

He said as he went to lock the door and turn off the lights.

Then he lay down beside Su Li and held her in his arms.
