Chapter 442 I Want to Marry You
After going out, Bai Qiujing glanced at the helicopter parked above and sighed, "If I had known earlier, I would have driven a helicopter to pick you up. How cool would that be."
His light-hearted words made Shen Zhichu laugh out loud.
"I don't like riding in helicopters. I like you to carry me on your back."
Chen Zhichu pressed against his back, he could feel her breath and her warmth. She leaned against his ear and spoke, her breath spraying on his ear. Bai Qiujing lowered his head, and the heat from his ear suddenly turned red from his earlobe to his neck.
"Then I will... carry you back. As long as you want, I will carry you anytime..."
Shen Zhichu reached out and pinched his ear. It was very hot. She had wanted to do this for a long time, and now she finally had the chance to do it.
"Why are your ears so hot?"
"Is there?"
"Yeah, it burned my palm." Shen Zhichu buried his head in his shoulder, letting his nose be filled with the smell of his body.
The light mint scent is unique and belongs to him.
Only then did her tense nerves and body completely relax.
She was still nervous after all. After all, she had experienced too much pain in this place before, and it brought back memories of Bai Qiu.
The sound of the gunshot that hit Bai Qiu's chest seemed to have happened yesterday, leaving people unable to recover for a long time.
From the moment she got here, her nerves were broken. Even though she finally knocked Lu Tingchuan unconscious and tied him up, she still had to be on guard against the people below.
Lu Tingchuan is a madman who will not give up until he achieves his goal. If she makes him angry, he might die with her. She doesn't dare to take the risk.
In addition, Li Jingshen came later, and she was also afraid that Li Jingshen would take her away by force. She was able to defeat Lu Tingchuan only because of luck and his let down of vigilance. It was impossible to defeat Li Jingshen in the same way.
Li Jingshen said that he would make it up to her and would not do anything to her, but who can know what will happen tomorrow?
It's not like she doesn't understand the principle of "the wolf is coming". She once died because of Li Jingshen's lies.
What's more, after she died, Li Jingshen held her body and said that he would let her go as long as she woke up. Now that she is back, he didn't listen to her and go away.
really……
Li Jingshen's mouth is deceiving.
She said she would never trust him again.
She used her death to see through this man. What she feared was not the pain of death, nor the wound being uncovered after the wound healed. What she feared was repeating the same mistakes, trusting someone easily and making the same mistakes.
"Qiu Jing, I want to go to the nearby coast and take a look."
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Lu Tingchuan's men had already dealt with the people brought by Bai Qiujing. As for the rest of the matter, Bai Qiujing left it to Sun Li without any worry. He then carried Shen Zhichu into the car, carefully put him in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt.
Shen Zhichu heard the sound of waves, she patted the car window and looked outside: "Just stop here, I want to go over there and take a look alone."
"Don't you need me to accompany you?"
Shen Zhichu pursed his lips and shook his head: "I'll be back soon."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Bai Qiujing sat in the car and watched Shen Zhichu open the door and get out, then watched her leave. He thought he would just watch her disappear as usual, but he didn't expect Shen Zhichu to suddenly turn around after taking two steps.
Their eyes met. Chen Zhichu stood in the dusk, and the cool wind of late autumn blew slowly, ruffling her long hair. Her eyes were as cold as ever, but after meeting Bai Qiujing's, her eyes softened in an instant. What had been out of reach now seemed within reach.
Chen Zhichu raised the corners of her lips, turned her head and walked towards the coast. The wind was very strong at the seaside, and her ears were filled with a humming sound. Chen Zhichu was wearing high heels, and her steps were a little shaky as she stepped on the stones. She took out Bai Qiu's photo from her shirt.
Looking at the endless sea, she didn't want to cry, but her eyes couldn't withstand the sea breeze. She lowered her eyes and a tear fell from her eye socket onto the photo.
The sea breeze seemed to pass through her body, making her already not warm enough body gradually colder.
Lu Tingchuan said that Bai Qiu's body was thrown into the sea and was dismembered.
Shen Zhichu took a deep breath, his breath trembling, his throat choked, and he put his palm close to his mouth and shouted: "Bai Qiu——"
Her voice was hoarse, her throat seemed to be broken, and she tried hard to smile at the sea.
"Big brother, I'm doing very well now. I've listened to you and I don't like Li Jingshen anymore. You're right. Li Jingshen is not worthy of my love."
"I have found someone who is truly worthy of my love. He is very good. He looks a lot like you and is as gentle as you. When I take medicine, he knows that I am afraid of bitterness and even prepares candy for me."
Shen Zhichu smiled, but her face became colder and colder. It turned out that she had burst into tears without realizing it.
Shen Zhichu woke up and sniffled, choking with sobs: "He is not like Li Jingshen. He respects me and believes in me. He always appears in front of me when I am most helpless. He carried me on his back today. His shoulders are as strong as yours, which makes people feel particularly safe..."
She stood on the shore and kept chattering, as if she was so excited that she had just received a compliment from her teacher at school and was going home to show off to her family.
Shen Zhichu's red eyes were covered with tears, but at this moment they were brighter than ever.
"I like him just because he is who he is, not because he looks like you."
Her tearful eyes were sore from the sea breeze, and she had to squint slowly. Once she calmed down, her brain had some free time to think about the past.
——"Don't cry, little crybaby. This time, big brother can't carry you home."
——"Here are some candied haws for you to eat."
——"Do you have any cookies? I'll give you all I have."
——"Can I call you Chuchu?"
——"Chu Chu, this time you have to find your way home on your own."
"Bai Qiu." Chen Zhichu choked with sobs, his voice hoarse. "I'm no longer allergic to candied haws. I can eat a lot. I've also found someone who can go home with me. I'm very happy and blessed. You should be happy too."
The cold sea breeze suddenly became gentle, gently drying the tears on Shen Zhichu's face. Shen Zhichu rubbed his eyes, put the photo back into his shirt, and then slowly turned and left.
Bai Qiujing stood against the front of the car, his eyes fixed on the direction Shen Zhichu had gone. He was the first person to see Shen Zhichu come back.
Shen Zhichu met his eyes from afar. Bai Qiujing's eyes were like the sun, moon, stars, mountains and rivers. He smiled, his eyebrows and eyes softened, as if a night of wind and snow in the north suddenly brought a sea of flowers to bloom in the south.
He has an upright posture, is tall and has long legs.
As soon as Shen Zhichu stopped, Bai Qiujing walked towards her, asked nothing, took out a tissue and carefully wiped the tears from his face.
"Aren't you going to ask me what I'm going to do?"
Bai Qiujing shook his head: "If you want to talk, I will listen. If you don't want to talk, I won't ask."
Shen Zhichu raised his head and grabbed Bai Qiujing's hand holding the tissue.
"Bai Qiu died here, and his body was thrown into the sea."
Bai Qiujing froze.
Shen Zhichu's voice was still hoarse from crying, and it was extremely hoarse and difficult to speak: "I just went to see 'him' and talked to him a lot. I told him that I met someone I really like, someone who can take me home."
Bai Qiujing's heart was beating so fast, as if a group of elephants were trampling on it. He could hardly control it, and his blood was flowing wildly. He stared at Shen Zhichu with envy, and his whole body became a little weak due to excessive excitement.
His ears moved violently, his face flushed and his breathing became heavy: "The person you like is, is..." He didn't dare to continue, fearing that he would misunderstand Shen Zhichu's intention.
"Silly girl." Tears welled up in the corners of Shen Zhichu's eyes. She laughed out loud and couldn't help but raise her hand to pinch Bai Qiujing's twitching ear. "I like Bai Qiujing, only you. It has nothing to do with anyone else. It's just because you are you. Do you understand?"
Bai Qiujing's brain was confused, but he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth into a flamboyant grin.
"What kind of love is it?"
"Probably..." Shen Zhichu said seriously, "The kind of love that makes you want to get married."
Bai Qiujing was so excited that he leaned over and hugged Shen Zhichu tightly with his arms, with his chin close to her ear.
"Shen Zhichu."
"Um."
"Zhichu."
"exist."
"Chuchu."
"I'm here."
Every time he called her, she responded.
"I love you."
Shen Zhichu listened to Bai Qiujing's rapid heartbeat: "Me too."
Feelings are meaningful only when they are mutual. He has been waiting for someone for so long, and at this moment he finally got her accurate response.
Bai Qiujing's gaze returned to her face with concentration, and he casually reached out his long arm, one hand around Shen Zhichu's waist, and the other hand through her legs to hold her sideways.
"Let's go home."
"Let's go home together."
When he got in the car, Bai Qiujing couldn't hide his excitement. He couldn't help but step on the accelerator and drive forward. The car kept stalling when he stepped on the brake and the accelerator. He had never been so embarrassed in his life.
“I always feel like I’m dreaming.”
Seeing his silly look, Shen Zhichu opened the car window to let the cold wind in: "Do you feel the wind? Do you still feel like you are dreaming?"
Bai Qiujing stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed out with a roar. The wind that blew in became stronger, and a slight chill passed through his skin. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and faced the wind, laughing like a big fool: "I'm not dreaming, Shen Zhichu likes me! She wants to marry me!"
Shen Zhichu’s heart tightened: “Drive slowly and drive safely.”
When Bai Qiujing heard this, he quickly released the accelerator and slowed down the car. He turned his head to look at Shen Zhichu, a smile between his eyebrows. The only regret on his face was that he was missing a tooth, which looked a little out of place.
Not knowing what he remembered, Bai Qiujing's face lit up with joy, his ears twitching proudly: "I knew you would like me."
"Why do you say that?" Shen Zhichu asked curiously. She found that Bai Qiujing was really easy to coax. There had just been a misunderstanding and conflict between them during the day, but he seemed to have forgotten it all in the blink of an eye.
Bai Qiujing thought to himself, putting aside the fact that he looked like Bai Qiu, just like his mother said, Shen Zhichu had always treated him differently, and her concern for him was not fake. He didn't need to doubt his own peculiarity, because he was unique in this world.
He was grateful that there was a person named "Bai Qiu" in Shen Zhichu's life. It was because of "him" that he had the opportunity to get close to Shen Zhichu.
He didn't know Shen Zhichu's past. The only clue he knew was that she was Li Jingshen's ex-wife and she died in a fire at the age of only 27.
The fact that she could remember Bai Qiu so hard showed that the man named Bai Qiu was very good to her and meant a lot to her.
He thanked everyone who was kind to Shen Zhichu, because they had such a good Shen Zhichu.
"Chu Chu, let's go to that coast again if we have the chance. I also want to talk to the man named Bai Qiu. Thank him for letting you meet me. Thank him for being so kind to you when I wasn't with you."
"You're not jealous anymore?"
Bai Qiujing shook his head.
Shen Zhichu discovered that Bai Qiujing seemed to like her more than she had imagined. So this is what it feels like to be liked.
…….
Li Jingshen watched Bai Qiujing carry Shen Zhichu away. He took two steps forward and stopped abruptly without catching up.
Li Jingshen pulled the corners of his mouth, his expression revealing a deep sense of sadness.
This time, he could no longer find any trace of himself in Shen Zhichu's eyes, even the hatred he had before was gone. Shen Zhichu had completely let it go, but what should he do?
Shen Zhichu really let him go.
He lowered his head to look at the syringe that Shen Zhichu had thrown on the ground, then bent down to pick it up. Lu Tingchuan was still restrained in the chair, his back to the others, unaware of what Li Jingshen was doing.
"Seeing Chen Zhichu leave with someone else, have you ever thought that it would be better for her not to come back? At least in this way, she will remain in your memory and belong only to you."
