Chapter 90 Afraid of Losing You

Fortunately, the firefighters arrived in time and the two people were not in danger of death, but the people around them were quite scared.

There was a noise coming from below; it was the firefighters and the security team cleaning up the aftermath. Chu Shuang listened, his eyes focused from the void.

The moment she reacted, she saw the glass on the table, picked up the glass and walked to the balcony, looking at the man in the windbreaker with a calm gaze.

The moment she raised the cup, a big hand grasped hers, and a warm feeling surrounded her from behind.

"First frost."

Sheng Ting's low and mellow voice echoed in my ears.

Taking the cup from her hand, Sheng Ting held her in his arms, and gently stroked the back of her head with his hand.

Taking her back to the car, the man didn't rush to drive away. Instead, he played soothing light music and helped her open a bottle of water.

Seeing that her hair was a little messy, I smoothed it for her.

Hatsushiro closed her eyes and rubbed her temples, her expression too calm.

Like a dense forest under the sun, it appears lively on the surface, but is dark and desolate with no end in sight inside.

"There are so many ways to die, but he chose the one that causes the most trouble. What a waste of social resources."

Before the song was over, she whispered these words.

Sheng Ting stared at her, his eyes dim.

The Hatsushimo he knew was gentle and kind, and had never said such harsh words.

There was silence in the car for a moment. Chu Shuang's eyes were a little wet. It took her a while to realize what she had just said.

Sheng Ting is still beside her, and her mood will affect others.

"Feel sorry……"

The man hugged her and stroked her back with his big hands.

The afternoon sun was very bright, slanting into the car window, very warm, and the first frost only looked pale.

Sheng Ting said gently: "Don't hold it in, talk to me."

The tears welling up in her eyes smudged onto the man's shirt.

"Ten years ago, my brother jumped into the water to save someone who was committing suicide..."

As soon as he opened his mouth he began to sob.

"It had been less than a month since my parents' plane crash. There was total silence at home. My brother had good intentions in taking me out to relax, but who knew..."

A man who failed in his business ran to a bridge to commit suicide. Chu Wei tried to persuade him but to no avail. When the man jumped off the bridge, he also jumped off.

The river was a hundred meters wide, and it was difficult for one person to swim back to the shore from the center of the river, let alone dragging a strong adult man.

The man was emotionally agitated and refused to accept the rescue. He held on to Chu Wei tightly and struggled with him. The bridge was too high and no third person dared to jump down to help.

By the time the rescue team rowed their boat to the center of the river to rescue the people, it was too late. Both of them had stopped breathing.

The sky seemed to be falling.

When my grandpa and uncle heard the news and rushed over, they saw Chu Wei lying wet on the shore, Chu Shuang burst into tears.

"I don't have a brother anymore, I don't have a brother anymore..."

"I have nothing left..."

She couldn't hear a word her family asked her, and could only mumble these two sentences. She lost three relatives in one month, and the little girl fell seriously ill after returning home.

"There are people who commit suicide by jumping off buildings and killing passersby, people who commit suicide by jumping into water and killing rescuers, and people who deliberately run onto the road hoping to be hit by cars... There are countless news reports like this every year. How many innocent victims are harmed by these people who don't want to live."

"Why should others pay for his life just because he doesn't want to live?"

"And those rescuers, are they stupid? Saving a person who doesn't want to live, can you save him for a short time or for the rest of his life? Losing your life for such a person is really stupid..."

With emotions running high, Chu Shuang no longer cared about her past image and said everything she wanted to say.

Sheng Ting patted her on the back and said in a cryptic tone, "It's very stupid."

The first frost eased for a while and the mood gradually subsided.

"Sheng Ting."

She called out his name, her voice was very soft, "Will you please not do such things in the future?"

"Don't put yourself in danger to save someone who is trying to commit suicide."

Looking into Sheng Ting's eyes, she said anxiously, "Promise me."

She couldn't bear to lose anyone she cared about again. Just thinking about Sheng Ting being in danger made her feel like she was suffocating.

"I promised you that I would not do anything dangerous."

Maybe it was because she had just witnessed the suicide scene, Chu Shuang felt uneasy in her heart, and she still felt uneasy after hearing his promise.

She reached out and hugged the man's broad chest, her voice slightly gloomy, "I just realized that I'm afraid of losing you."

"I've never been this panicked since I suspected you had an ex. I don't ask for your true love, I just hope you're safe."

"As long as you are safe..."

The warmth and wetness on his chest passed through his shirt and reached his skin, and Sheng Ting felt as if his heart was burned.

This was the first time she showed such an insecure side in front of him.

The pain that has accumulated over the years cannot be eliminated overnight.

Gently stroking the back of her head, Sheng Ting's Adam's apple rolled slightly, "Don't be afraid, we will all be safe."

"When I was a child, my mother asked someone to read my fortune and she said that I would be blessed with a long life and many children and grandchildren. You are my wife, so you will definitely have the same fortune as me."

The person in his arms slowed down and raised his eyes, "Really?"

"real."

Looking up at his handsome face, Chu Shuang couldn't help but reach out and touch his cheek, her heart softened.

"Having a house full of children and grandchildren... is that true?"

Sheng Ting's stern brows became warm under the touch of the sun, and his eyes were focused as if he loved her deeply.

Hearing this, he pursed his lips and said, "It depends on what the lady wants."

I don’t know if he was trying to comfort her on purpose, but the gloom in Chu Shuang’s heart was indeed dissipated a lot.

Looking at the man's face from such a close distance, she leaned forward and pecked him lightly, "It depends on how you perform."

In the end, without waiting for my sister-in-law and the others, they just sent a message and drove away.

Sheng Ting wanted to take her out to relax, and drove them slowly through many beautiful places.

Seeing the eaves of the ancient temple rising from the green hillside in the distance, Chu Shuang said, "Let's go to Daoqing Temple tomorrow to pray for peace."

Nature is good.

When driving back home, the setting sun cast long slanting shadows on the earth. Chu Shuang leaned against the window to enjoy the breeze. His eyes inadvertently swept across the passers-by and he seemed to see a familiar figure.

She turned around and looked out the window. The crowd was so busy that the woman's face was blocked and she couldn't see it clearly.

"What are you looking at?" Sheng Ting asked.

Chu Shuang was also a little skeptical, "She looks a bit like Sister Chao Yu, but it shouldn't be her."

There is no way she would be in Guiyun.

The next day.

I went to pray and had a vegetarian breakfast.

Cars can only drive to the foot of Yunli Mountain, and one has to walk up the thousands of stone steps to show one's sincerity in praying to Buddha.

After parking the car, Sheng Ting took out some simple personal belongings from the car.

They will stay in the Daoqing Temple's room for one night and have a vegetarian meal today. It will be cold at night, so they brought some clothes with them.

Yunli Mountain is high, with lush forests and beautiful scenery, but the road is not easy to walk on.

It was okay at the bottom, but when you reach the middle of the mountain, the road becomes quite steep. Even so, there are still many people on the road.

Not all of them come here to pray to Buddha. The scenery on the top of the mountain is very beautiful, and people who like climbing come here all year round.

The temple complex on Yunli Mountain is very old and of a grand scale. There are several small temples located halfway up the mountain. As you go up, you can slowly see the ancient temple hidden in the lush forest.

But their goal was the largest Daoqing Temple on the top of the mountain, so they did not stop at other small temples on the way.
