Chapter 75 Let me hear the screams of Brother Bai
Shi Huai's crying was mixed with regret and self-blame, which made Zhou Jibai feel heartbroken.
Zhou Jibai leaned his back against the headboard, letting Shi Huai lie in his arms and cry, his narrow eyes lowered, quietly acting as a qualified listener.
The hot tears that soaked his pajamas burned his heart like boiling molten lava. He knew about Shi Huai's unhappy family, her past, the gaping hole in her that could never be filled with love, and that her coquettish and domineering behavior was just a protective color.
Zhou Jibai is the shadow.
It is a dim shadow hidden in the dark depths that Shi Huai cannot see.
Shi Huai showed him her broken heart. Seeing her most vulnerable side, he was rarely silent. The feeling of heartache and powerlessness spread in his heart, making his throat sore.
It seems that what is dripping on the tip of my heart are not tears.
It's a knife.
Shi Huai's muffled sobs echoed in the silent room. Zhou Jibai hugged Shi Huai and asked, "Are you still sleepy?"
Shi Huai shook his head.
"Pack your bags now, we're going to Guangnan."
Shi Huai was slightly stunned, then raised his tearful eyes and looked at Zhou Jibai.
Zhou Jibai stretched out his slender fingers and wiped away the tears on that pretty little face bit by bit. "Get up and wash up?"
Shi Huai sniffed and choked, "Isn't this too sudden?"
"Since you want to go, don't hesitate." Zhou Jibai pinched her red nose again, "Your tears are falling like knives."
Shi Huai curled his lips and wanted to cry again.
"Then, am I going to Guangnan alone? I'm scared." Shi Huai couldn't imagine that if she went back to Guangnan alone with a bulging belly to find her grandmother, her grandmother would probably eat her alive.
Zhou Jibai: "Do you think everyone can be like you and abandon their husband without even saying hello?"
"I can't abandon my wife and children."
Shi Huai was amused by Zhou Jibai's words. She took the initiative to hold Zhou Jibai's arm and said, "Didn't I apologize to you at that time? Don't be angry."
"Then don't cry, and I won't be angry." Zhou Jibai said in a low voice, lowering his head to look at Shang Shihuai, his eyes vaguely revealing heartache.
Shi Huai sniffed again and said with certainty, "I'm not crying!"
"I'm not angry either." Zhou Jibai imitated Shi Huai's tone and said lazily.
Shi Huai hummed twice and muttered softly, "Stupid person."
"A smart scholar." Zhou Jibai imitated her words, intending to make his title of smart scholar more real.
Shi Huai:?
"Why are you imitating my way of speaking!" Shi Huai said coquettishly.
Zhou Jibai also lowered his voice and said deliberately: "Why are you imitating my speech?"
“Puff—”
The main reason was that Zhou Jibai's accent as a girl was so funny that Shi Huai couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Seeing Shi Huai's shoulders shaking with laughter, Zhou Jibai curled up the corners of his lips into a faint smile.
After crying, Shi Huai felt a little tired, and kept saying that he wanted to get up and go to Guangnan with Zhou Jibai immediately.
As a result, when Zhou Jibai got up, washed up and came out of the bathroom, he saw Shi Huai sleeping on the bed.
He sighed lightly and walked forward to cover Shihuai with the quilt.
…
After breakfast, the two prepared to leave for Guangnan.
Zhou Baichen looked very relieved. His old father was so kind that he wanted to personally send the young couple to Guangnan.
But Zhou Jibai refused.
Zhou Jibai raised his eyebrows: "Save your energy and save your kindness for your daughter and granddaughters."
Zhou Baichen chuckled, "Okay, okay, I owe you this time."
Without much conversation, Zhou Jibai took Shi Huai to the airport.
This is the first time the two of them have traveled together.
In the car, Zhou Jibai told Shi Huai what Zhou Baichen had talked to him about yesterday.
Shi Huai's eyes suddenly lit up, "That's fine! I'm going back to Guangnan to visit my relatives and help my sister."
Zhou Jibai rubbed Shi Huai's head randomly: "I'm afraid you are not the Zhou family's biological daughter who was left behind."
Shi Huai curled his lips: "Then we can't get married."
"I picked it up from the trash can. It doesn't count as orthopedics, so don't worry." Zhou Jibai said.
Shi Huai: "How can you say that about yourself?"
"Call me Brother Jibai." Zhou Jibai lowered his eyes and glanced at her.
Cum White Brother...
These four words were ambiguous and sweet, and Shi Huai felt his whole body go numb just by imagining them in his mind.
She bit her lip and looked into Zhou Jibai's eyes. She couldn't speak for a long time.
Zhou Jibai snorted and didn't force her to call him.
But he took the initiative to distance himself from her and leaned towards the car door. He turned his head away and didn't look at Shi Huai.
Seeing that there was a space between them, Shi Huai took the initiative to move over and stayed close to him.
Zhou Jibai still didn't look at her.
Shi Huai thought Zhou Jibai didn't want to talk, so he didn't coax him.
There is some distance from the manor to the airport, and the atmosphere is a bit quiet during the journey.
Shi Huai lowered his head and sent a message to Song Xuwen, telling her that he would stay in Guangnan for a while.
Song Xuwen said she's also on a business trip in Guangnan recently! We can go out together.
Shi Huai agreed.
I switched chat contacts and told my grandmother that I was going back to Guangnan.
But grandma ignored me.
Shi Huai had long been accustomed to the old lady's serious attitude of not replying after reading the message, so she just gave a reminder.
I guess when I get home, my bedroom will be cleaned spotlessly.
Zhou Jibai glanced at Shi Huai who was completely unaware and hummed softly through his nose.
"You can call others baby, call others senior, tsk." Zhou Jibai said this in a lazy and careless voice.
Shi Huai slowly put down his phone, raised his eyebrows and looked up at Zhou Jibai.
But Zhou Jibai turned his head away again and looked at the scenery along the way outside the car window.
