Jian Xiu's body froze, obviously not expecting her to suddenly ask this question.
"Xiao Jin, I..."
Fang Jianjin pressed her lips against his again, then whispered, "It doesn't matter if you can't. Just wait until the day you want to tell me the reason."
After saying that, she was about to stand up and move aside.
Jian Xiu held her arm, his eyes met hers, and then said, "It's not impossible. Perhaps we can give it a try."
"Try?"
Fang Jianjin was actually a little confused. Why should he try such a thing?
Normally, people with myopia would just have trouble seeing without their glasses, but she clearly remembered that Jian Xiu was extremely panicked several times when he lost his glasses, which was completely different from his usual calmness.
so……
"Why are you afraid of losing your glasses?"
Since he said to give it a try, and since they were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, she simply asked directly.
Jian Xiu lowered his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and then replied, "That day, I was coming back from the funeral home, and there happened to be construction at the intersection of Qingyun Road. I was a bit dazed at the time and couldn't see anything clearly. I just felt that the tire must have tripped on a rock or something, and then my glasses flew out due to inertia. When I tried to retrieve my glasses and put them on again, a truck ran a red light and crashed straight into us."
Fang Jianjin's heart tightened, and then he had some impression.
Qingyun Road? Truck?
"Was it a big red truck and you were driving a white car?" Her voice was tense.
That was news from a few months ago. Although it was in the social news column and not within her job scope, as a journalist, she would naturally pay attention to it.
At that time, the hottest topic among netizens was not that the truck hit the car, but that the incident happened in the early morning on Qingyun Road.
Qingyun Road is the main road leading to the funeral home. According to statistics, the number of scratches, collisions and other accidents occurring on Qingyun Road every year remains high. People even joke that it is the King of Hell taking their lives.
When the truck hit the car, it was in the early morning and the truck driver inexplicably ran a red light and hit the car. Netizens exaggerated the situation and made it sound mysterious.
"Yes, it was that time, my leg... was like that." Jian Xiu lowered his eyes, hiding the sad look in his eyes.
That's it.
These four ordinary words deprived him of the right to walk, run, and jump freely, and at the same time, brought endless pain and torture upon him.
And what was his condition at the time? He had just come out of the funeral home, which meant he had just lost his parents!
Why is God so cruel to him!
Thinking of what happened to him, she couldn't help but clutch the bed sheet beneath her.
"I'm sorry, Jian Xiu, I..."
"I should have told you a long time ago, but I just... never figured out how to start. I often wonder if my glasses hadn't fallen off, would I have been able to react in time and reduce the damage? Or... I've also wondered if this was God's punishment for my unfilial behavior, for never spending enough time with my parents."
So much time had passed, and he spoke as if he was telling someone else's story. His tone was calm and his expression was the same as always. But why did Fang Jianjin hear a strong sense of powerlessness and self-blame in this plain narration?
"No, it's not your fault." She quickly denied it.
"Really?" He sneered twice, obviously certain of his answer.
Anyone who lost both parents in one day and then both legs would probably suffer a mental breakdown.
Obviously, Jian Xiu had collapsed before, and now, he is still affected by this collapsed emotion.
"No, Jian Xiu, this is just an accident. Your parents love you so much, they would definitely not let God treat you like that. This is just an accident, don't think too much about it." She couldn't help but hold his face with her hands and spoke seriously.
She shouldn't have brought up this topic, it would undoubtedly open up his wounds!
But he smiled and said, "I'm fine. Let's... give it a try."
He also knew that this might be a fantasy, but the scenes of the past were like a shadow hanging over his heart, lingering. Now that he had her, he had to be more proactive and step forward so that he would be qualified to be with her.
Seeing that he still chose to try, Fang Jianjin was moved by his courage and determination compared to the helplessness and uneasiness he had felt after losing his glasses.
Her nose felt sore, and then she replied, "Okay."
Then, as she stared at him, he looked straight at her and slowly removed his glasses.
She could notice that when the lens moved away, his brows knitted together and his eyes narrowed as usual. Only after he refocused and saw her clearly in front of him did his momentary panic subside.
Without the obstruction of the cold lenses, his beautiful eyes were fully revealed.
only--
"I'm here, don't be nervous, we are at home, we are very safe." Fang Jianjin said quickly.
Because as time went on, his blinking frequency became faster, and not only that, the expression on his face became nervous.
It was obvious that he could no longer bear it.
"Jian Xiu, look at me, I'm here." She reiterated.
But it is obvious that "losing glasses" is a psychological illness. Just because they are in a safe environment now will not make him immediately realize "safety" and no longer be nervous.
Seeing that cold sweat had begun to appear on his forehead, his face turned pale, and his body became tense, Fang Jianjin suddenly became nervous.
