Chapter 103 Missing
That night, Chen Lili had been guarding Shen Sangsang, fearing that something might happen to her. Although she didn't know what her background was, she was definitely related to the top management. If anything went wrong, she really couldn't take the responsibility.
Shen Sangsang vomited almost the entire night. In the middle of the night, her condition improved slightly. When she opened her eyes dazedly, she saw a face above her. She thought she was dreaming.
But after looking at it for a long time, she still whispered: "Uncle Shen..."
Her voice was soft and small, unlike her usual cold voice, as if she had returned to two years ago.
When Shen Yuehuai saw her like this, he reached out and touched her cheek. After a few seconds, he slowly withdrew his hand. After he withdrew his hand, Shen Sangsang closed her eyes again and continued to fall asleep.
Shen Yuehuai sat on the edge of the bed and sighed softly.
Standing behind him was Chen Lili, who was trembling all over. She looked at the man in front of her. She had thought about Shen Sangsang's identity, but she really didn't expect that Shen Sangsang would be her boss's wife!
What's more, the boss came at three o'clock in the middle of the night, and Chen Lili was confused.
For a small manager like her, meeting the top executives was the limit for her. Who would have thought that today, she would actually meet the legendary... big boss...
How could she not be shocked, frightened, and trembling?
She was completely confused, okay?!
Shen Yuehuai didn't care about the brainstorming of the people behind him. After he withdrew his hand from Shen Sangsang's cheek, he said to Xu Jie beside him: "It's getting late, let's all rest."
Xu Jie understood what he meant and immediately responded, "Okay."
Xu Jie walked up to Chen Lili, who was still in shock, and whispered, "You've worked hard today. Go back and rest."
Chen Lili nodded quickly and said, "Oh, okay, okay, okay."
Xu Jie went out first, and Chen Lili followed and walked out of the room.
When the room became quiet, Shen Yuehuai sat by the bed and looked at the person sleeping on it.
The sound of waves outside made the room seem especially quiet.
Inexplicably, Shen Yuehuai recalled that when she was in high school, her grandfather passed away and she was also very scared. There was a mourning hall downstairs. At three o'clock in the morning, there were still people coming and going in the old man's mourning hall. She was already in high school, but she was so scared that she had a high fever. She lay in bed, confused and kept saying some strange things.
How old was Shen Yuehuai then? In his twenties, dressed in black, he was downstairs handling matters at the old man's funeral hall. When he learned that she had a fever upstairs, he came to her room and stayed with her all night.
She was very dependent on him. After pulling at the corner of his clothes and taking the medicine, she gradually became less afraid and her fever subsided.
At that time, the servants of the Shen family said that he was both a father and a mother to the child Shen Sangsang.
He also found it funny.
Now, he is in his thirties and she is only in her early twenties, but this scene has reappeared.
His eyes fell on her face which was gradually calming down. He reached out and stroked it gently twice, looking at her innocent white face.
He looked at that face, which had lost its childishness and become extremely silent.
Sometimes he felt that he had protected her too well in the past and taught her a lot, but he did not teach her how to face the issue of death.
Because of work, he missed those crucial two years. Now thinking about it, it was really not worth it.
But at that time, he never thought that he would become his wife.
When Shen Sangsang opened her eyes again, it was six o'clock. She moved around the room in a daze. Then, she saw a man's arm beside her. Her body stiffened. She moved her eyes upwards and saw Shen Yuehuai. Her expression froze again.
Just as she was wondering why he was here, Shen Yuehuai, who was half asleep, felt that the person next to him had woken up, so he also opened his eyes and looked to his side: "Awake?"
Shen Sangsang only felt a dry mouth, but compared to the dry mouth, she was more afraid.
Whether it was out of instinct or because there was someone next to her, she suddenly threw herself into his arms.
The moment Shen Yuehuai rushed in, his arms naturally embraced her body.
Shen Sangsang's face was buried deep in his arms, and her whole body was shaking, trembling uncontrollably.
Shen Yuehuai's hand fell on her shoulder at first and did not move. After a while, when he felt her fear, his hand fell on the back of her neck, his fingers touching the cold sweat on the back of her neck, and he whispered, "Sang Sang'er, don't be afraid."
"Don't be afraid..."
His voice was soft and gentle, coming and going.
Let Shen Sangsang recall the nights when she was afraid. It was because of his words "Sangsang'er" that she was no longer afraid.
So she slowly opened her eyes in his arms.
She was wondering, what had she thought of him all these years? From the first year she met him, she thought of him as a god.
After that, she treated him as her brother, uncle, and elder.
She did rely on him, but that was only a dependence from her childhood. When she grew up, she knew very well that she would grow up like a baby bird and the distance between them would become farther and farther.
Sure enough, after encountering the sinking boat, she knew she had found her home.
So she decided to stay away from him out of gratitude for his kindness.
But I never expected that things would play tricks on me. Not only did they not go away, but they came back in such a weird identity.
She closed her eyes again.
Shen Yuehuai naturally felt her tense body gradually relaxing, and his anxious heart also relaxed, and he just waited for her to fall asleep.
After that, she stayed in his arms, and he lay on his side beside her, holding her in his arms.
That night, he fell asleep with his eyes half closed, while Shen Sangsang slept very soundly.
When Shen Yuehuai opened his eyes again, it was ten o'clock in the afternoon. Shen Sangsang also opened his eyes, and the two looked at each other.
Shen Yuehuai looked at her calmly and asked, "Awake?"
Shen Sangsang replied, "Awake."
Shen Yuehuai's hand fell on her cheek, and his fingertips gently stroked the skin on her cheek.
Of course, during this process, his eyes were always on her face.
There was a faint ambiguity pulling at him, but Shen Sangsang just stared at him without moving.
The fingers he stroked on her cheek slowly slid from her cheek to her small chin, and then from her small chin to her pale pink lips.
Shen Sangsang let him watch and caress her.
Finally his hand stopped and he whispered, "Eat something."
Shen Sangsang said, "Okay."
At this time, the doorbell rang outside. Shen Sangsang quickly wrapped herself in the thin nightgown with the bathrobe beside her, and Shen Yuehuai also got up from the bed. He glanced at the person on the bed, and then said to the person outside the door: "Come in."
