Chapter 179 Is our world real?
Wen Duo returned to the room only after the male doctor finished the treatment.
When Wen Duo pushed the door open, Ji Huaishen was tying gauze on himself.
Hearing the noise, he raised his eyes. Although his deep eyes were still a little tired, they had regained their former clarity.
After Ji Huaishen rewrapped the gauze, he waved to Wen Duo:
"come over."
Wen Duo walked quickly to him and looked at his face carefully.
Although it is still pale, it is much better than the previous grayness.
Her heart finally settled down, but it tightened again when she saw his slightly furrowed brows.
She took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, and said seriously:
"Rest for a while, we'll leave here immediately."
Ji Huaishen was a little surprised and raised his hand to touch her cheek:
"The murderer has been caught, there is no need to worry anymore."
But she shook her head stubbornly, and her small hand grasped his slightly cold fingers:
"But I don't want to stay here anymore, not even for a moment."
Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were still red and swollen.
"We'll leave in a minute, okay?"
She had no way to tell Ji Huaishen her guess, she could only hope that Ji Huaishen would agree.
Ji Huaishen stared at her worried and persistent little face.
Although he didn't quite understand why Wen Duo was so anxious, he finally nodded seeing how persistent she was.
"good."
Wenduo pursed her lips.
He really didn't ask any further questions and compromised so easily.
"Ji Huaishen,"
Her voice was muffled, with a barely perceptible sob:
"You have to be well."
Always be well.
Ji Huaishen was stunned for a moment, then chuckled.
"Um,"
He whispered a promise, as if he was making the most solemn oath:
"For you, I will."
Wen Duo looked at his pale profile, and besides feeling distressed, she felt an indescribable sense of relief.
As long as we leave here, everything will be fine.
She firmly believed this.
........
The moonlight was like a silk thread, sprinkling on the dark sea and breaking into a silver glow.
The yacht broke through the waves and moved forward steadily, but there was a tense atmosphere on the deck.
Because everything that happened recently was too bizarre, Ji Huaishen was worried, so he arranged bodyguards to lead the way in front, and there were also more bodyguards on the yacht than when they came.
These bodyguards were scattered around, scanning the overly calm sea with sharp eyes, always on guard.
Of course, Chen Yuwei also boarded the ship, but was required to stay in the cabin room and not move around freely.
As for the murderer...
Wen Duo didn't ask.
But she guessed that the ending would definitely not be good.
Wen Duo knew Ji Huaishen's arrangement and was afraid of danger on the road.
She is also anxious.
She was afraid that her idea was wrong.
Maybe the plot wants them to die?
She was so anxious that she couldn't sleep, so she came to the deck to enjoy the sea breeze.
Wenduo looked at the sea level.
She always felt that this sea area was a little too peaceful.
so.......
Will there be danger again?
They are on a yacht now. If they really encounter danger, they can't escape even if they want to.
Will they die?
Wen Duo was lost in thought until a suit jacket with body temperature and a unique cold fragrance was gently draped over her shoulders.
Wen Duo was startled and turned back to meet Ji Huaishen's gaze.
"The wind is strong at sea, don't catch a cold."
His voice was a little deeper than usual, slightly hoarse from his injury, but with a very obvious tenderness.
His body temperature still lingered on the coat, instantly dispelling the chill brought by the sea breeze. The familiar cold fragrance wrapped her tightly, strangely soothing the slight anxiety in her heart.
"You should wear more clothes,"
Wen Duo subconsciously wanted to return the coat to him:
"Your injury hasn't healed yet..."
Ji Huaishen held her hand, his palm was slightly cold, but his strength was unyielding.
"I'm fine."
He paused, and gently gathered the fabric on her shoulders with his long fingers, his eyes gentle:
"You are more important."
His eyes were calm and focused, as if he was stating a very simple fact.
Wen Duo's heart skipped a beat and her cheeks felt slightly hot, but fortunately the night covered her face.
She no longer refused and muttered softly:
“…It’s always like this.”
Even though he was in danger, he always took care of her first.
Ji Huaishen seemed to chuckle, very faintly, and dissipated in the sea breeze.
The two were silent for a while, with only the regular sound of the waves.
Wen Duo looked at the bright moon on the sea and the broken path of light it cast. A question that had been lingering in his heart for a long time could not help but blurt out:
"Ji Huaishen, do you think... our world is real?"
As soon as she said it, she regretted it.
This question sounds too silly and nonsensical, and might even make Ji Huaishen suspicious of something.
Sure enough, Ji Huaishen was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at her, with a clear inquiry in his eyes:
"Why do you ask that?"
His eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to see through the source of all her uneasiness.
Wen Duo subconsciously avoided his gaze, lowered her head, tucked the hem of her suit jacket with her fingers, and came up with a lame excuse:
"It's just... I've read too many novels, so I just overthink things..."
Her voice got lower and lower, as if she was afraid of being discovered.
Ji Huaishen looked at her silently, his eyes deep and scrutinizing, as if he didn't completely believe what she said.
But in the end he didn't ask any further questions. He just slowly withdrew his gaze and looked back at the boundless sea.
Just when Wen Duo thought he would not answer this inexplicable question, he slowly spoke, his voice low and firm, penetrating the sea breeze and falling clearly into her ears.
"anyway,"
"You are real and by my side, and that is enough."
What does the truth and falsehood of the world have to do with him?
He was only sure that the person who was by his side at this moment, who made him willingly endure the pain and wanted to hold him tightly in his arms, was the real warmth.
That's enough.
Everything else doesn’t matter.
Wen Duo's heart seemed to be gently bumped by something, and a sour and soft emotion instantly filled her chest, dispelling those ridiculous doubts and anxieties.
She pursed her lips and nodded vigorously.
Well, there's no point in thinking so much.
Whether this world is a pre-set script or a bizarre dream.
At least for now.
The warmth of his palm is real.
The way he looked at her was genuine.
His unhesitating preference and protection are real.
That's enough.
She took a deep breath and wrapped her coat, which belonged to him, tighter around her, as if this would give her more courage.
Although Ji Huaishen didn't look at her again, his eyes were always on her little movements.
Seeing that she was no longer as tense as before, he moved a little closer and held her hand.
Wen Duo felt the burning heat coming from her hands, and her heart felt warm.
The sea breeze is still blowing, the moonlight is still cold, but the two people's hearts are closely attached to each other, dispelling all the coldness.
