Chapter 466 If I forget you, I will fall in love with you at first sight next time
Bai Qiujing was so taken aback by the beautiful scenery before him that he didn't know where to look. He had never thought he would see this cold and lustful side of Shen Zhichu. She was wearing a white silk nightgown with lace trim, revealing her slender arms and long hair draped over her shoulders. Under the dim light, her eyebrows were long and slender, her eyes were like autumn water, and she was as beautiful as a night demon, dazzling and exquisite.
Bai Qiujing's breathing was choked, and for a moment he was like a puppet, completely unable to control his limbs. His hands were still on Shen Zhichu's slender waist, and now he felt his palms were burning hot, as if there was a flame burning, and the slightest movement would burn through his entire palms.
Bai Qiujing's heart trembled.
But then he noticed something strange. Shen Zhichu's eyes looked like she had cried and were still red.
"Are you crying?"
Shen Zhichu subconsciously touched his face: "I had a nightmare, and when I woke up I couldn't help crying."
"What kind of nightmare would make you cry?"
His voice was a little hoarse after crying, and Shen Zhichu said sullenly: "I dreamed that you forgot me and didn't remember me."
Bai Qiujing rarely saw Shen Zhichu cry. When she cried, she cried quietly, just like when she was filming a movie, when she had a crying scene, she would secretly express her emotions in a corner by herself.
Her body was shaking like a newborn kitten, feeling insecure.
Bai Qiujing released her waist and patted her head. "If I ever forget you, don't be afraid. I promise I'll fall in love with you again when I see you again."
Shen Zhichu was stunned for a moment, and finally raised his head.
Yes, the person who loves her the most in this world is Bai Qiujing. No matter how much time has passed, even if he has forgotten her, he will still treat her well when they meet again and give her all his tenderness.
Just like the big brother who bought her candied haws to comfort her and carried her home when she was a child, or the silly Bai Qiu who gave her cookies to eat alone on her 24th birthday.
Even though she died and changed her body, Bai Qiujing still recognized her at first sight.
Shen Zhichu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
Bai Qiujing shifted his attention and asked, "Is Wanwan not here?"
"Well, she went to sleep in the guest room."
When Bai Qiujing heard this, the worry that had been weighing on his mind all night finally settled down, and the look of relief on his face showed without any concealment.
"You don't seem to like me being in the same room with your sister."
"It would be fine if she was a little more normal, but I feel like she has ulterior motives. She was cold to you before, but now she suddenly sticks to you like a dog-skin plaster..." Let's talk about the nightgown on Shen Zhichu. You can tell at a glance that it was given by Bai Wanwan. She has bad intentions and ulterior motives. Fortunately, Shen Zhichu did not sleep in the same room with Bai Wanwan tonight.
Bai Wanwan had clearly come prepared tonight, so why did she suddenly go to the guest room? Did something happen in between?
Shen Zhichu smelled a scent of vinegar, and his gloomy mood that had been lingering all night was suddenly swept away.
"It should be 2:30 in the morning now. You should sleep a little longer, otherwise you will have rabbit eyes when you wake up tomorrow morning."
"Then will you accompany me?" Shen Zhichu asked.
"I'll stay with you and watch you sleep."
Shen Zhichu's eyebrows twitched, full of confusion: "Watching me sleep? Aren't you sleeping?"
Bai Qiujing shook his head: "You can't just sleep in a girl's bed." Even if that person is his own sister.
"Then I'll sleep in your room."
"What...what, you...you are going to sleep in my room?" Qiu Jing's expression could not be seen clearly in the dim light, but from his stuttering voice, one could guess that his face must have been red.
"No?"
It’s not impossible, but it’s a man’s nature, he can’t control his wild thoughts, and Shen Zhichu is dressed so... weirdly and seductively.
Bai Qiujing tried hard to suppress his restless heart and said calmly, "Of course."
"Let's go." Shen Zhichu left as soon as he said that, but was pulled back by Bai Qiujing as soon as he walked out of the door.
"Where did you put the clothes you changed into?"
"It's hanging in the cloakroom."
"I'll get it. You just stand here and don't move. Don't take a step out." She couldn't go out dressed like this. There were cameras outside. What if someone saw her?
Shen Zhichu nodded obediently and waited for Bai Qiujing to get her clothes. She was wearing a white suit today. Bai Qiujing took the suit jacket and put it on her shoulders. After making sure that there was no problem, he took Shen Zhichu back to her room.
Bai Qiujing's room looked even bigger and more empty than Bai Wanwan's bedroom, and it was obvious that he rarely came back.
Bai Qiujing lifted the quilt and watched Shen Zhichu get on the bed, "Are you cold?"
Shen Zhichu shook his head: "Not cold."
Bai Qiujing did not go to bed, but sat on the edge of the bed and looked down at Shen Zhichu. His eyes under the black eyelashes were gentle and indifferent. They were obviously so calm, but one could not help but fall into them at a glance.
Shen Zhichu suddenly felt that she had been stupid all her life. It was obviously the same person, the eyes, the teeth, the smile, the soft voice, they were exactly the same, why did she only react now?
The tooth that Bai Qiujing pulled out was still a pain in Shen Zhichu's heart even though he had a denture installed. If she had discovered it earlier, he would not have been hurt.
Shen Zhichu felt guilty and uneasy, his hand still tightly grasping Bai Qiujing's hand: "Aren't you going to bed?"
"I want to wait until you fall asleep." Bai Qiujing leaned forward and touched Shen Zhichu's warm forehead. "Are you still scared now?"
Shen Zhichu shook his head: "I'm not afraid anymore."
"It's good that you're not afraid anymore. Go to sleep. I'll watch over you."
Bai Qiujing is not so gentle to everyone. He feels alienated from his own family. When he goes out, he seems to be gentle to others, but that gentleness reveals a sense of distance and indifference. Only when he treats Shen Zhichu will he go all out and be gentle forever.
Shen Zhichu was always being watched by Bai Qiujing. As soon as she opened her eyes and turned to see him, she would see herself in his eyes and would be involuntarily attracted by the sincere enthusiasm in his eyes.
Shen Zhichu was afraid of cold, so even after changing his body, he still felt the same as before, while Bai Qiujing's body was always warm.
She lay on her side, holding Bai Qiujing's warm hands tightly against her cheeks. As soon as she got close to the warmth, she felt sleepy.
My eyes are sore after crying, and once I close them, I don’t want to open them again.
Bai Qiujing let her hold his right hand, and when he heard Shen Zhichu's steady breathing, he knew she was asleep but didn't let go.
He carefully raised his left hand and lifted a few strands of hair from Shen Zhichu's face to her ear.
Tonight was destined to be restless. Bai Wanwan couldn't sleep even after changing rooms temporarily. She felt regretful and disappointed, and her mind was filled with the word "lost". She didn't know when she would have such an opportunity again after failing to sleep with Chu Jie this time.
She was carefree and didn't think much about Shen Zhichu suddenly mentioning his brother's past. Anyway, she left everything to her mother to handle, and she would do the same thing now as she had done before.
Bai's mother went back worriedly and told Bai's father everything she had just said to Shen Zhichu.
"Am I being very sorry to Zhichu?"
"Since you have made up your mind to do this, don't feel guilty. It's not a big deal. I'm curious how Shen Zhichu knew Qiu Jing in the past. I have secretly investigated her before. Shen Zhichu is from another province and has never been to Chengdu before, let alone meeting Qiu Jing in the Fukang Orphanage. Moreover, Qiu Jing was stupid for more than ten years and had no chance to go out. In addition, there is an age gap between them." I couldn't figure this out no matter how I thought about it.
"Chen Zhichu's former name was Shen Qing, and he followed Lu Tingchuan for a year. You just said that what Shen Zhichu told you about Qiu Jing being shot and injured was all Lu Tingchuan's doing?"
Bai's mother nodded. "That's what she said. She also said that Qiu Jing collapsed right in front of her. Her expression didn't seem like she was lying."
"Wife, don't you think it's strange?"
"What's strange?"
"Chen Zhichu was only fifteen or sixteen at that time, and was still attending school in the countryside. How could he have had the time to meet Lu Tingchuan?"
"It's really strange what you said." Bai's mother reacted belatedly, "You said Shen Zhichu was with Lu Tingchuan back then? Why didn't you ever tell me about this? Could she be..." Bai's mother couldn't help but let her thoughts run wild. She cared too much and valued Bai Qiujing more than anyone else and was afraid that he would get hurt in the slightest. Thinking about what Shen Zhichu said and Bai's father's analysis, she couldn't help but wonder if Shen Zhichu would hurt Bai Qiujing.
"Don't let your imagination run wild." Father Bai interrupted her thoughts. "Since you chose to trust her from the beginning, then keep trusting her. You've been with her for so long, you should know what kind of person she is. We've all seen what happened between her and Qiu Jing. She definitely has secrets we don't know, but I believe she wouldn't harm our family. If she truly had ill intentions, she wouldn't have told you so much tonight."
"Then do you think Lu Tingchuan really said that?"
"It makes sense, but it still needs investigation." Father Bai said, his eyes suddenly darkening, like a beast waiting for an opportunity. He would not let go of anyone who hurt his family.
"Don't worry about these things, just leave them to me. Live your life as you wish from now on. Be happy."
Mother Bai nodded. She put her arms around Father Bai's waist and leaned into his arms. "Didn't you have a lot of opinions about Shen Zhichu before? Why did you think it through so thoroughly today?"
"It's not like she suddenly came to understand. I trust your judgment more than hers. And I played a game of chess with her yesterday. She's clearly a young woman in her early twenties, but she's so mature and composed. Her behavior doesn't seem like someone her age at all."
Bai's mother agreed, "Yes, I always felt something was wrong with her. Now that you've reminded me, I finally noticed. It's her age. When I see Zhichu, I always overlook her age. She's in her early twenties, but she's already managing a multi-billion dollar company and still pursuing her acting career. She really doesn't look like someone her age at all."
"She wasn't like this a year ago. She only changed in recent years. I'm curious about what caused her to completely change like this."
Just as Bai's father said, Shen Zhichu has many secrets. Wouldn't a person full of secrets be scary?
But they knew clearly that the secrets in Shen Zhichu would not harm them.
…….
Father Bai finally coaxed the person in his arms to sleep, but in the second half of the night, Mother Bai woke up from a nightmare, sobbing in Father Bai's arms, and no amount of comfort could help.
He said that he dreamed that Bai Qiujing regained his memory and no longer wanted them, and he resented them for hypnotizing him and causing him to lose his memory.
You will dream about whatever you fear. Bai's mother has always felt guilty about hypnotizing Bai Qiujing, and now that Shen Zhichu knows about it, she starts to get worried.
"No, the purpose of us using hypnosis back then was for his own good. Now we choose to keep it a secret, and Zhichu has agreed. You don't have to overthink it. Besides, we can't always be with them. The future is left for them." He believed in his son, but his wife was just being stubborn. He needed to give her some time to figure it out.
When Bai's mother thought about the nightmare she had, she thought of the time when they had just found Bai Qiujing. He was lying on the hospital bed, dying, with a weak heartbeat. She was scared just thinking about it. She had finally found him and she didn't want to lose him again.
…….
Even if he goes to bed very late, Shen Zhichu will wake up at a certain time. His biological clock has become a habit.
I thought I would wake up with some swelling and pain after crying last night, but I didn't feel any discomfort.
She opened her eyes and looked around. She could see everything in Bai Qiujing's room more clearly during the day. She moved her hand and felt a force restraining her. She reacted a little slowly and looked over. Bai Qiujing was lying on the edge of the bed with his head resting on his right arm. Judging from his posture, he must have slept like this for half the night.
