How would she react?

Will she take the agreement and try to terminate the contract with him, or will she be angry that he went against her wishes and choose to leave him?

However, what Chen Zhi saw was the opposite. The girl was leaning on the table and yawning, and in front of the table was a large table of prepared food.

There was still steam rising from the pot of soup on the table, and it was obvious that it had just been heated up.

The girl seemed to have heard some noise. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, turned her head, and looked at him with her beautiful eyes.

The moment she saw her, she smiled.

"Are you back?"

Shen Zhi was slightly stunned.

There was no accusation, no anger, as if she was just waiting for him to come home.

Shen Zhi lowered his eyes and asked, "You...are not angry?"

Fei Wan stood up and picked up the soup spoon, and the soup fell into the bowl, making a special sound.

"certainly……"

Fei Wan looked at the cautious man in front of her, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and changed the subject.

"angry."

Fei Wan didn't want to be treated like a dodder that depended on others for protection, so Shen Zhi's behavior naturally made her a little unhappy.

but……

When she thought about her current status, she was indeed unconvincing.

If Qin Yutong hadn't seen it with her own eyes, no one would have believed that she had subdued an adult man in the hospital.

But this is not a reason to escape. Fei Wan doesn't want to hide behind Shen Zhi all the time. Since she has chosen him, she will not be afraid.

Fei Wan pushed the bowl of soup to the edge of the table and hummed softly: "So...Mr. Shen, you have three minutes to state your reasons."

"If I'm not satisfied..."

Fei Wan approached him, smiled with her eyes curved, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "You are not allowed to eat dinner."

Fei Wan didn't know whether her attitude would make Shen Zhi change his mind. She didn't want to argue with him, she just wanted to talk to him in her own way.

However, as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Fei Wan didn't hear his response.

Shen Zhi's gaze fell on her, some obscure emotions flashed across his eyes, but he did not speak.

Fei Wan blinked,

The three minutes she gave was still too short... Can't think of a reason?

Or maybe Shen Zhi didn't realize his mistake at all, so he was still planning to send someone to protect her?

Fei Wan was about to reiterate it when he felt the warmth in his palm.

His fingers gently touched her palm. Fei Wan raised her eyes, a little overwhelmed by his sudden touch.

Then, she suddenly fell into his arms.

Shen Zhi hugged her tightly.

She could clearly feel his heartbeat, intertwined with his breathing.

She couldn't see the expression on his face at this moment. Even though he was silent, she could still feel the other hand on her waist, as if wanting to embed her into his body, with a slightly imperceptible trembling.

"sorry."

She heard his low voice, which was different from before, with a hint of hoarseness.

"I can't lose you again."

The night outside the window is deep, and the boundless darkness seems to be able to spread over and swallow people at any time, making people feel breathless.

Shen Zhi didn't want to do it because of himself.

Losing someone who was very important to him.

Back then...my brother met with an accident because I took him home.

It was a premeditated murder in revenge, and the target was him, not his brother.

Sometimes he even wondered why he wasn't the one who died?

Now……

She pulled him out of the darkness, but he found that he still couldn't completely escape it.

Even if she agreed, he didn't want her to know the truth.

He believed that she would not leave, but he did not trust himself.

He could go all in and stake everything he had.

But she is the only one...

He absolutely would not allow himself to lose her.

Shen Zhi took a deep breath, folded his fingertips and rubbed her whole body into his arms, but he didn't know how to treat her in the future.

"Chen Zhi, this is my choice. You have to believe that I will be fine. And your choice..."

The girl's voice was soft and gentle, and seemed to have the power to soothe people.

She reached out and returned his embrace.

She raised her head and looked at him, her eyes shining like bright stars, which was particularly moving: "This time, let me accompany you to find the truth, okay?"

He looked at her, and countless images flashed through his mind.

Those unforgettable memories... kept reminding him of everything that had happened in the past.

But when he saw her eyes, Chen Zhi found that the memories he had always wanted to avoid were no longer scary.

She would accompany him.

This is her choice.

And his choice...

He goes with her to find the truth.

He lowered his eyelashes, hiding the tenderness in his eyes, and his voice was low.

"good."
