Chapter 96: What good will it do you if you kill me?

Qin Chang looked at Lin Du's belly, thoughtfully. He was thinking that he had no relatives in this world and Lin Du was his only relative.

Then his child is his own child, and as the child's godfather, he wants to give the child something.

"Baby, please accompany me to Free."

"What are you going there for?"

"I left in a hurry and left some things there. I want to get them."

"Is it something important?"

Qin Chang pursed his lips and said, "My mother left it to me, so it is very important."

When the two of them arrived at Free, Lin Du was still frightened when he saw the security guard at the door.

Arriving at the locker room, Qin Chang opened the cabinet he had used before and took out a box.

"Why did you put such an important thing here? Aren't you afraid it might be stolen?" Lin Du asked puzzled.

Qin Chang pinched Lin Du's face and said, "This place is safer than anywhere else."

Carefully opening the box, I found a small package tightly wrapped in satin.

"Here." Qin Chang grinned, "Open it and take a look."

"What an exquisite jade bracelet." Lin Du held it carefully in his hand.

"This is what my mother left for me. Now I want to pass it on to my little baby." Qin Chang patted Lin Du's belly gently.

"No." Lin Du refused, "This is a thought your mother left for you, how could I possibly want it!"

Qin Chang lowered his eyes, a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes: "Because my mother gave it to me, I want to keep it for the baby in your belly. I have no one to pass it on to."

"Why don't you keep it for yourself?" Lin Du noticed Qin Chang's disappointment, and he took his hand. "Are you hiding something from me?"

Qin Chang was startled and turned away. He was tortured by his sponsor every day and was humiliated and scolded by his boyfriend when he returned home.

He was exhausted and didn't know how long he could hold on.

"What are you thinking? I am just very touched that you let me be your child's godfather. You also know that I don't have anything valuable, only this bracelet is worth a little money, but you still rejected me. I am so sad."

Qin Chang knew how happy Lin Du was at the moment, and he didn't want his own affairs to disturb his happy life.

He knew how hard it was for Lin Du's happiness to come, and he was happy for him.

"I...I didn't mean that." Lin Du explained, "I was worried that you were hiding something from me, and I was afraid that something might happen to you."

Qin Chang pretended to be speechless and pinched Lin Du's face: "Can't you just hope for me?"

"Then it's a deal. Baby and I are just keeping it for you. Just keep it for you." Lin Du emphasized again and again.

Qin Chang grinned: "Okay, I understand."

Seeing Lin Du carefully put away the bracelet, Qin Chang felt relieved.

He thought, if he really passed away one day, at least Lin Du would take good care of his mother's things for him.

When they walked out of the locker room, they met Chu Xu who had just walked in.

Chu Xu walked over, glanced at Qin Chang, and then set his sights on Lin Du: "Why are you here today?"

"I came with Qin Chang to get something." Lin Du pulled Qin Chang over, "Qin Chang, this is Chu Xu, you should know him."

Qin Chang pursed his lips and smiled uncomfortably: "Hello, Mr. Chu."

Chu Xu smiled politely: "Lin Du and I are good friends, and you and him are also good friends. So we are all friends, just call each other by our first names."

"Okay." Qin Chang nodded. He knew that he had a bad reputation and that even a noble family like Chu Xu would not look at him straight in the eye. He could still see through the superficial politeness.

"Are you going to look for Shen Zhichu?" Lin Du asked.

Chu Xu nodded, his eyes passing through Lin Du and Shen Zhichu.

"Lin Du, let's talk next time."

Lin Du nodded and walked out of Free with Qin Chang.

Chu Xu walked towards Shen Zhichu. He held the door with one hand until Chu Xu walked in, then he closed the door.

Chu Xu turned around, but before he could react, Shen Zhichu pushed him against the door. A gloomy and hoarse voice came into his ear: "After all this time, you finally want to see me?"

Chu Xu turned his face away, his eyes calm: "Let go."

"What if I don't?" Shen Zhichu approached, veins popping out on his hands as he pressed against the door. "Chu Xu, how long are you going to torture me?"

"You know how much I miss you, but you are reluctant to come see me."

"You know, if I want to take the coercive route, you can't escape."

Shen Zhichu pinched Chu Xu's chin and asked him to look at him. His tone was a little humble, "You know I can't be cruel to you, so you can bully me like this?"

"You can choose freedom, why make yourself suffer?" Chu Xu lowered his eyebrows, his voice sounded like complaint, which made people feel sad.

Shen Zhichu smiled bitterly, resting his forehead on Chu Xu's shoulder: "Maybe it's because I'm being mean."

Chu Xu was startled, and his heart felt as if it was being torn apart by thousands of needles.

Shen Zhichu held up Chu Xu's face, his forehead pressed against his, and said in a low voice: "What good will it do you if you kill me?"

Chu Xu wanted to hide, but Shen Zhichu refused.

He closed his eyes, his breathing trembling with pain.

"Is it painful?" Shen Zhichu kissed Chu Xu's wet eyes. "It hurts, right?"

Chu Xu clenched his fists. At this moment, he seemed to be swallowed by darkness, drowning in silent repression, unable to speak.

Pushing Shen Zhichu away, he struggled to continue his interrupted breathing.

The two stood there quietly, breathing intermittently...

"I heard that you were getting engaged." Chu Xu suppressed the pain in his heart.

"So you are here to congratulate me today?" Shen Zhichu smiled bitterly.

Chu Xu tried hard to regulate his breathing. The pain was so deep in his bones that he was speechless. He could only endure it silently.

He knew that he should put things to rest with Shen Zhichu, and he didn't want to waste his time any longer.

As the only son of the Shen family, Shen Zhichu shoulders a great responsibility. He has been struggling to support me for so many years, but I am too weak to give him any response.

Since you can't give it to them, just be ruthless. This will be good for both of them.

"I heard that the girl is well-educated and well-mannered, and she is a good match for you. I wish you happiness." Chu Xu said with a self-deprecating smile. It turns out that saying something against one's will is so painful.

Shen Zhichu's face was full of endurance. Under his wrinkled brows, his deep eyes revealed unspeakable pain.

He sighed deeply: "So, should I thank you?"

Chu Xu pursed his lips, trying to hide the pain in his heart, but the tears in his eyes still exposed his scars: "No need."

The air around him was so thin that it was hard to breathe. All he wanted at this moment was to escape as quickly as possible.

Chu Xu turned around, but before he touched the door, Shen Zhichu grabbed him and threw him onto the sofa.

Shen Zhichu supported the sofa back with one hand and knelt on one knee beside Chu Xu, imprisoning him in his circle.

She pressed her tiger's mouth against Chu Xu's neck, forcing him to look at her, her tone sad and aggrieved: "So... I will always be the one who is abandoned, right?"

Chu Xu's body stiffened and a tear welled up in the corner of his eye, which was the evidence of the pain he had endured for a long time.
