Chapter 528 After dark, I’m not looking for a light, I’m looking for you
A sudden storm like this comes and goes quickly. After the rain stopped, the circuit in the villa was repaired. There was still thunder outside, but people were not so scared because the lights were on.
The lights in the room suddenly came on, and Bai Qiujing asked, "Was there a power outage just now?"
"You didn't even know that you ran up from downstairs?"
"I don't know..." He had no idea what happened next. After he stopped the car, he hurried into the house. He only knew that Shen Zhichu was afraid of the dark and thunder, and he wanted to get to her as quickly as possible.
So when I faced the pitch-black room, I didn't think of turning on the lights, so I didn't know there was a problem with the circuit and there was a power outage.
Shen Zhichu suddenly remembered the art film she had just watched, which also had such a scene.
Do you know what deep love is? It's like when a room suddenly becomes dark and he doesn't look for the light but for you.
Shen Zhichu felt distressed when he saw his wet body. Bai Qiujing's body had not yet fully recovered. When something happened to the Bai family, he took over temporarily and had been working overtime for a month.
Although I eat on time, I can't handle the overexertion of my body. Coupled with staying up late, I now have dark circles under my eyes and my skin is pale. When it is drenched by the cold rain, it looks like white paper soaked in water.
Seeing that there was no panic on Shen Zhichu's face, Bai Qiujing breathed a sigh of relief, and thinking that his body was cold and wet, he quickly let her go.
"The sheets are wet... I'll change them."
Chen Zhichu lowered his head to glance at the water stain on the quilt. It was only a small spot, not obvious, but he was afraid of catching a cold in this cold weather.
"You go take a shower and I'll change the sheets."
"But it's still thundering outside..."
"I'm not afraid anymore." Shen Zhichu stood up and pushed Bai Qiujing into the bathroom. As long as she was not alone, she was not afraid of these things.
When Bai Qiujing went into the bathroom to wash up and came out, Shen Zhichu had already changed the bed sheets. She was sitting on the bed looking at her phone. When she heard the bathroom door open, she put down her phone without leaving a trace.
"I'll show you something." Shen Zhichu put down her phone, opened the drawer of the bedside table, and took out a jewelry box. Inside was the jade bracelet that Bai's mother had given her today. It was so precious that Shen Zhichu was worried about breaking it while wearing it, so she took it off and kept it in the jewelry box as soon as she came back.
"When did my mother give you this bracelet?"
"Do you know this jade bracelet?"
"I know. My mother said that this jade bracelet was passed down from generation to generation in the Bai family to their daughters-in-law. My grandmother gave it to my mother, and now my mother gives it to you." Bai Qiujing reached out and took it. The jade had a good luster. A bracelet like this would be worth tens of millions.
"Wanwan wanted it before, but my mom didn't give it to me, so she just waited for me to get married."
"What if you never get married?" Shen Zhichu asked curiously.
Bai Qiujing closed the jewelry box and answered Shen Zhichu seriously, "If she hadn't gotten married, this bracelet would have naturally fallen into Wanwan's hands. She can only say that she was unlucky." He smiled and continued, "Did you go to the hospital to see Dad today?"
"Well, he's recovered quite well and seems to be quite open-minded about things at the company. He even asked me to remind you not to overwork yourself."
Bai Qiujing shook his head, got on the bed and hugged Shen Zhichu and said, "My dad asked me to study management before, thinking that he would hand over the company to me when he could no longer work. I didn't want to, and I told him that I didn't want this crappy company."
He tilted his head, rubbed his cheek against Shen Zhichu's soft hair, and said in a deep voice: "I only realized how difficult it was when I took over. And my dad... turned out to be old."
There are many things that I didn’t pay much attention to before, but now I realize that aging happens in an instant, just like his father’s hair suddenly turned white and he lay in bed unable to move.
“Bai’s was founded by him with great effort. I don’t want the company to be ruined, but I have no other choice. Zhichu, do you think I’m useless?” He asked her with his chin on Shen Zhichu’s shoulder.
Shen Zhichu reached out and touched his face: “No, you are the most powerful in my heart.”
Bai Qiujing has never even attended university, let alone studied management. His current achievements are entirely due to his talent.
The person who can protect those around him is the most powerful person.
"Bai Qiujing, we are the most suitable people in the world." Both mentally and physically, they are so compatible that they can hug each other for warmth in winter. When she is scared, he can always arrive in time to give her a safe embrace.
There were thunders outside, but Shen Zhichu was no longer afraid.
Bai Qiujing patted Shen Zhichu's back gently, as if coaxing a child. Looking at Shen Zhichu's sleeping face, he couldn't help but reach out to touch her eyelashes.
Chen Zhichu slept very uneasily, with her brows furrowed and humming from time to time. She would only feel better when Bai Qiujing patted her back gently.
There was a reason why Shen Zhichu slept uneasily. She had many dreams. Sometimes she dreamed of Li Jingshen, sometimes she dreamed of the dead Shen Changnan, and sometimes she dreamed of Bai Qiujing and his parents.
Chen Zhichu hadn't slept well these past few days, but this was the first time he had nightmares so frequently in one night. Perhaps the reason was the text message on his phone.
The next day, Shen Zhichu slept until she woke up naturally. She subconsciously turned over and found herself in a warm embrace. She woke up instantly and turned around to see Bai Qiujing still beside her. What time was it? Was Bai Qiujing not going to work?
Bai Qiujing is known as a god-like person in the entertainment industry, with extremely delicate features. Shen Zhichu pinched his ear, and with just a slight movement, the man holding her woke up.
"When did you wake up? It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"It's getting late, the sun is out, aren't you going to the company today?" The curtains in the bedroom were drawn, and a faint golden light seeped in from the gaps.
"No, I've already handed over my work in advance, so it's okay to take a day off. We're going out on a date today, our first date after marriage."
Shen Zhichu became interested, clearing away the haze of the nightmare, "Where are we going on a date?"
Bai Qiujing said with a smile: "In this weather, let's go to the amusement park. I remember that was also the place where we first met. We can also take a hot spring bath if we have extra time in the evening." It was winter now, and Shen Zhichu was cold to the bone, so taking a hot spring bath was good for his health.
After a night of rain, the temperature dropped several degrees and winter began. Chen Zhichu was afraid of the cold, so he took out his down jacket and put it on early. The down jacket was loose and revealed a part of his white neck.
The two of them packed up and were about to go out when Bai Qiujing glanced at Shen Zhichu's neck: "Wait, I'm going upstairs to get something. Don't go out yet. It's cold outside."
Bai Qiujing hurried upstairs and came down after a while, holding a scarf in his hand.
"Put on your scarf."
Shen Zhichu is afraid of the cold, but doesn't like wearing a scarf. He always feels itchy on his neck when wearing a scarf.
"It's cold outside, don't catch a cold." Bai Qiujing wrapped the scarf around Shen Zhichu's neck and tied it for her while saying, "I know you don't like wearing scarves, so put it on now when it's cold outside, and take it off when you warm up."
"Yeah." Shen Zhichu nodded and stood there obediently with her back straight, allowing Bai Qiujing to tie the scarf around her neck.
The scarf tied around my neck was still not very comfortable, but it was really warm.
Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing went to the amusement park together. He didn't drive, but called a driver to pick them up.
Along the way, Shen Zhichu leaned on Bai Qiujing's shoulder and looked out the window. Bai Qiujing kept chattering, holding Shen Zhichu's hand and coaxing her like a child.
The two of them hadn't had breakfast yet, so they stopped at a breakfast shop. Bai Qiujing opened the car door and went out to buy a lot of breakfast to pack.
The breakfast was all Shen Zhichu’s favorite, and by the time we were done eating, it was almost time to get to the hospital.
Afraid of being recognized, the two of them dressed warmly and wore masks on their faces. Their appearance could be hidden, but their temperament could not be hidden. Even if they were wrapped like a spring roll, they would still attract attention.
The two held hands and ignored the strange looks around them.
It was a weekday and winter, but the amusement park was still crowded. However, Bai Qiujing held Shen Zhichu's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would get lost.
Bai Qiujing asked her: "Chu Chu, what do you want to play?"
Shen Zhichu glanced at the surrounding amusement equipment and finally decided on the bungee jumping machine: "Anything is fine."
Bai Qiujing followed her gaze and asked, "Do you want to go on a bungee jumping machine?"
Shen Zhichu replied: "I haven't played it before, I'm a little curious."
"Then let's go play." Bai Qiujing bought a VIP ticket, which allowed him to play on all the equipment in the amusement park.
He took Shen Zhichu to queue up. There were not many people playing the vertical bungee jumping machine, so they were the first to line up.
(The title of the book is easy for me to remember. And I have already mentioned the title before. Besides, everyone reads this book because they remember the title. You know what I mean? Pat the little cuties on the head.)
