Chapter 124 Can a Fool Still Turn the World Upside Down?
"Mr. Li, why don't you sit for a while and I'll pour you a glass of water." Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the dean quickly spoke up to mediate.
Shen Zhichu seized the opportunity and ran towards the warehouse.
Li Jingshen narrowed his narrow eyes with a hint of danger.
Shen Zhichu's casual words were like needles that fell into his ears. He knew that he couldn't push Shen Zhichu too hard, otherwise he would get sick again like before.
But if he let her escape from his sight, even for a short while, he would feel very uncomfortable.
Li Jingshen hated the feeling of being out of control. When he thought that if Shen Zhichu ran out now, he might run into that idiot, he wanted to catch him and lock him in the room for the rest of his life without allowing anyone to see him.
He was so paranoid and morbid that he even thought that Shen Zhichu, who was ill in the hospital, was fine. If she was ill for the rest of her life, he could take good care of her.
Li Jingshen sat on a chair. Some of the furniture in the orphanage was already old. For example, the soft chair he was sitting on had the leather peeling off and looked very shabby no matter how he looked at it.
"Can I have a cigarette?"
The dean glanced at his face, glanced at the child beside him, and finally nodded: "Okay."
Li Jingshen took out a cigarette box, picked out a cigarette and lit it. With smoke curling up, he leaned back in an old chair and looked at his watch nonchalantly.
In ten minutes, even if Shen Zhichu went to see that idiot, that idiot would not be able to do anything.
The orphanage is not big. The last time she came, the director took her on a tour and she knew where the warehouse was.
When I arrived, I found the door wide open and a figure squatting on the ground in the dim room.
"Bai Qiu, why are you here?"
Bai Qiu was sorting out the gifts. When he heard Shen Zhichu's voice, he quickly raised his head. His eyes were a little red, obviously from rubbing them.
"I knew you would come." Bai Qiu picked up the gift bag, "I'll take it to your car."
"No rush." Shen Zhichu looked around the warehouse. It was more like a storage room with everything. She found a place to sit down and said, "Sit down for a while, let's talk."
Bai Qiu sat beside Shen Zhichu hesitantly, placing the gift in his hand at his feet. He lowered his head and showed no expression.
"I'm sorry. I said I'd come visit you at the orphanage a month ago, but something happened to me."
"What happened?"
"It's nothing. I'm sick and in the hospital."
Although Bai Qiu is a fool, he knows better than anyone else that if it is just a small matter, why can't her phone be reached and why doesn't she reply to her text messages.
"Is that man really your husband?"
Chen Zhichu rested his chin on his head and answered carefully, "Yeah."
"Is he good to you?" Bai Qiu asked again.
Shen Zhichu smiled in surprise: "Why are you asking these questions? What does it have to do with you?"
Bai Qiu suddenly stopped talking, and his breathing seemed to hurt. Shen Zhichu might have said it casually without meaning to, but he still felt a pain in his heart, as if a knife was stirring inside.
To Shen Zhichu, that person was the closest person to her husband, while he was just a big fool whom she had met once. There was no comparison between the two, so he seemed dispensable.
Yeah...what does it have to do with him? But the first time he saw Shen Zhichu, he wanted to give her everything he had.
"Why are you so nice to me? We have only met once, right?" Shen Zhichu turned her head to look at him. The man's handsome eyebrows were hidden in the dim light, and his pair of deep peach blossom eyes were now fixed on her face.
Shen Zhichu's expression, which had just been relaxed, suddenly became stiff.
Bai Qiu pointed to his left chest with a sleepy look on his face: "It hurts here."
Seeing Shen Zhichu unhappy makes me feel uncomfortable, seeing her injured or sick also makes me feel uncomfortable, and knowing that she is married makes me feel so painful that I can't breathe.
He couldn't just ignore her and wanted to be nice to her.
His inexplicable words made Shen Zhichu slightly stunned, and then he laughed out loud: "Don't be nice to me, it's not worth it."
Shen Zhichu glanced at the time. She had been out for six minutes. If she didn't go back, Li Jingshen would be angry.
She stood up and said in a soft voice, "Thank you anyway." After all, there were not many people in her life who truly treated her well.
She smiled brightly, but Bai Qiu could tell that it was not a genuine smile.
Shen Zhichu reached out to pick up the gift bag, and just as his hand touched it, a black shadow jumped out from the dark corner like lightning. It was a mouse.
Shen Zhichu is very afraid of mice, but she is always calm. When she is frightened, she just turns pale and doesn't yell.
However, Bai Qiu, who was standing next to him, quickly stepped on the mouse's body, picked up a pair of old scissors from the ground, and cut the mouse's head hard.
