Chapter 164: Quiet
She even begged the gods in her heart, asking them not to get into trouble and for Shengting to be safe.
He is such a good person, he can't...
Thinking of this, Chu Shuang's throat tightened and her eyes became sore.
My brother was a very good person, but he didn’t have a good ending.
What if...
Her searching steps suddenly stopped and she opened her mouth to breathe deeply.
My vision was blank and my heart was shaky. The image of my brother lying on the ground, soaking wet, ten years ago suddenly became clear in my mind.
No matter how hard she tried to suppress her emotions and forget about it, that figure and the darkness and pain of that day would only become clearer and more unforgettable.
No, no.
Chu Shuang shook her head, and her hands holding the phone were shaking noticeably.
I shouldn't have come here for vacation, and I shouldn't have asked Sheng Ting to come watch the sunset.
If it weren't for her, Shengting would be safe now.
If Yugen hadn't met her and married her, he would never have come to this point.
At that time...my brother died because of her, when he wanted to take her out to relax.
It's because of her.
Chu Shuang stood there in a daze. Everything around her became unreal, as if she had returned to that dark time again. She could not feel the existence of the world and everything felt like a dream.
Is there really such a person as Sheng Ting in the world? Is she really well?
Is it possible that all the beautiful things are just her imagination?
Thinking of this, she felt a dull pain in her heart and reached out to press her chest.
What is true?
"First frost."
The voice in my memory is a little far away.
"First Frost!"
There were footsteps behind him. Chu Shuang was still in a daze and before he could turn around, someone pulled him over.
Sheng Ting frowned and looked at her, "The water has reached your ankles, what are you looking at?"
Familiar faces, familiar voices, not far away.
Hatsushimo slowly raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her bit by bit, engraving every detail of his facial features into her heart.
A wrinkled, lively garden.
Sheng Ting saw that her face was calm and her eyes were cloudy, and he had a vague guess in his heart.
Even though he was soaking wet, he still hugged Chu Shuang tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Feeling the wetness all over his body, Chu Shuang asked in astonishment: "Did you go to save people?"
Sheng Ting paused for a moment and whispered, "I went to the tavern to find you right after I rescued the person, but you were not there, so I came out again."
Being held by him, Chu Shuang slowly shed two lines of tears. Her heart tightened so much that she wanted to reach out and hug him, but stopped halfway.
"Where's your cell phone?"
"It must have fallen into the sea. We didn't have time to find it. Did you call me?"
Chu Shuang cried quietly at first, but then she started sobbing. Sheng Ting felt her trembling and his heart was dulled.
But no matter how emotionally broken she was, she never reached out to hug him back.
It was unknown how long she cried, until she gradually calmed down, Sheng Ting took her back to the hotel.
By the time she arrived at the hotel, her tears had stopped, but her expression remained calm.
Sheng Ting asked her to change into clean clothes first, and then have dinner in the room. She finished the meal faster than usual, probably because she had no appetite.
During this time, Sheng Ting talked to her a few words, and she answered them calmly and gently. But she didn't say much, just a simple question and answer, and then there was nothing more to say.
After dinner, Chu Shuang said she wanted to rest. Sheng Ting wanted to send her to the master bedroom, but was rejected.
"I'll just sleep on my side. I want to be alone and quiet."
The presidential suite is very large, with a master bedroom and a smaller side bedroom. The two of them were in the master bedroom before and did not go to the side bedroom.
She suddenly suggested sleeping on her side, and Sheng Ting paused.
