Chapter 431 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 62

He Baifeng gave Chu Bojian a calming look, then patted Chen Xinran's hand and said gently, "Grandma is a light sleeper, you will disturb me."

Shen Xinran nodded reluctantly, "Okay then!"

However, when the two were about to go to bed, Shen Xinran hugged his quilt and said, "I'm warning you, don't grab my quilt, otherwise I will kick you off."

Chu Bojian smiled helplessly and could only nod in agreement: "Okay, I won't take your quilt."

After saying that, he quietly opened the wardrobe, took out another quilt, and carefully spread it on the bed.

That night, Chu Bojian witnessed Shen Xinran's various strange sleeping positions.

She rolled from the head of the bed to the foot, her body forming a big letter "X", occupying almost half of the bed.

Chu Bojian could only curl up beside the bed and try not to disturb her.

It was considered light for Shen Xinran to put her foot on his stomach. After turning over and over, she actually put her foot directly on his head.

Chu Bojian took Shen Xinran's feet off again and again, trying to remain patient.

Later, he realized that resistance was useless, so he simply followed her position, sleeping sideways, and held her in his arms.

In this way, Shen Xinran's sleeping position finally became more stable.

Chu Bojian finally understood why He Baifeng didn't like sleeping in the same bed with Shen Xinran. With that sleeping position, anyone sleeping with her would have to be on guard against being kicked off at any moment.

The first rays of sunlight in the morning filtered through the gap in the curtains, gently spilling onto the bed. Shen Xinran woke up from her sleep, and when she opened her eyes, she found Chu Bojian's face close at hand.

And she was lying in the same bed with Chu Bojian, which surprised her a little.

She reached out her hand, gently poked Chu Bojian's cheek, and asked with a hint of confusion: "Why did you grab my quilt?"

Chu Bojian was amused by her actions and questions, "Look carefully, whose quilt is this."

Shen Xinran looked down and realized that she was actually covered with Chu Bojian's quilt. She frowned and asked in confusion, "Then where is my quilt?"

Chu Bojian sighed helplessly, "You kicked me off the bed."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Shen Xinran's face, but she quickly said confidently, "It's all your fault. I usually sleep in a good position, and there's no way I would kick the quilt off."

Chu Bojian: “…”

After graduating from university, Chu Bojian worked in a hospital in the provincial capital and occasionally made some small investments. He was not rich, but he had more than enough to support his family.

He and Shen Xinran have never had children. In Chu Bojian's view, Shen Xinran is like a child, which is enough to give him a headache.

He also didn't want to share his energy with anyone other than Shen Xinran, and of course, he didn't want anyone to share Shen Xinran's attention to him.

In his opinion, he and Shen Xinran will accompany each other and snuggle up to each other until they are old. For him, this is enough.

However, Chen Lanru and Xiao Chuanbai gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. They named the girl Xiao Sitong and the boy Xiao Zhengming.

Xiao Sitong is lively and active, a typical naughty kid, but every time she meets Chen Xinran, she becomes like a different person, becoming unusually well-behaved and quiet.

Chen Lanru felt that Xiao Sitong and Shen Xinran had a special bond, so during the winter and summer vacations, she would arrange for Xiao Sitong to go play with Shen Xinran.

When Xiao Sitong came, she always rushed to share a room with Shen Xinran, so Chu Bojian had to sleep alone in the study.

It was fine for two or three days, but after a while, Chu Bojian got unhappy. He didn't even want a child himself, so there was no reason for him to take care of someone else's child!

So, before summer vacation even started, Chu Bojian called Xiao Chuanbai in advance and said, "Children face so much competitive pressure these days. As parents, you can't let them lose at the starting line. If you don't have enough funds to educate your child, just tell me. I can help her find some good teachers."

After ten years of hard work, Xiao Chuanbai was promoted from deputy mayor to mayor. He immediately understood what the other party meant and agreed with a smile: "Okay, I'll arrange it for her this summer."

As a result, when summer vacation arrived, Shen Xinran found that Xiao Sitong had not come yet. She asked Chu Bojian in confusion: "Why hasn't Teacher Chen sent Xiaotong to play here yet?"

Chu Bojian replied innocently, "I heard from Mayor Xiao that children are under great competition these days and need to learn more, so I enrolled her in two tutoring classes."

After hearing this, Shen Xinran didn't think much about it and just nodded, "Okay then."

At this time, Xiao Sitong, who was taking a calligraphy class, was drawing circles on the rice paper, complaining in her heart: Who is the shameless person who asked her father to sign her up for so many classes!

…

When He Baifeng was eighty years old, a sudden illness swept through her body. It was so severe that her originally healthy body quickly became thin.

Chu Bojian knew how important He Baifeng was to Shen Xinran, so he brought He Baifeng to the hospital where he worked and arranged the best medical team for her.

Chen Xinran stayed by He Baifeng's bedside, accompanying her every step of the way. Sometimes he would stay with her for the entire day, and even blinking seemed so cautious.

But despite this, He Baifeng's condition continued to worsen, and he was in a coma for twenty hours out of the twenty-four hours a day.

It is said that the elderly can sense when their time is up. That morning, He Baifeng suddenly opened her eyes and smiled at Shen Xinran, "Niuniu, grandma is leaving. You have to take care of yourself."

Shen Xinran's eyes reddened. She reached out her hand and took out the talisman she had prepared in advance, wanting to keep He Baifeng's soul in her body.

But He Baifeng held Shen Xinran's hand and said, "Grandma knows you are very capable, but grandma is tired, let grandma go."

Shen Xinran's tears were about to burst out, "But I can't bear to leave you."

He Baifeng touched Shen Xinran's head and smiled, "Everyone will die one day. Living too long will only make you suffer."

He Baifeng used up her last bit of strength to utter these words, her voice so weak that it was almost inaudible. Then, her eyes closed gently and her breathing stopped abruptly.

He Baifeng's hand fell on Shen Xinran's hand. Shen Xinran seemed to be frozen at that moment. Her mind was blank and she stood there at a loss.

The coldness from the back of her hand made her heart sink suddenly. Her throat choked and she wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

Chu Bojian stood behind Shen Xinran. He could feel her trembling. He reached out and gently placed his hand on Shen Xinran's shoulder, trying to give her some comfort and strength.

Chu Bojian silently took on He Baifeng's funeral affairs and handled them in an orderly manner. Shen Xinran followed him throughout the whole process. She didn't cry, but her sadness seemed to have surpassed tears.
