Chapter 431 Chapter 431 She said she wanted to go
He looked like he had been seriously ill. His entire body was imbued with the silence of the wilderness in midwinter, and there was no light in his eyes anymore.
Shen Qinghuan was startled for a moment and stopped where he was, not moving at all.
Zhou Sinian seemed to have just seen Shen Qinghuan, and the light in his eyes seemed to brighten for a moment, but it was only for a moment.
Then it went out.
Shen Qinghuan raised the corners of her lips and smiled, pretending to greet him cheerfully: "Doctor Zhou, long time no see!"
Zhou Sinian was stunned at first, then he responded to her gently: "Yes! Long time no see." He always felt that everything in front of him was unreal, as if he had imagined it out of thin air, fake, not real.
After a pause, he asked tentatively, "Why are you back so late? Are you very busy with work lately?"
Shen Qinghuan curled her lips helplessly, "It's not that busy! But Li Meng is in the hospital, and I have to go to the hospital to accompany her." "Why is she in the hospital? Is she sick?"
Although he was not very familiar with Li Meng, they had eaten together several times because of Shen Qinghuan.
Shen Qinghuan let out a long breath, as if she had met an old friend, and wanted to pour out all the frustration in her heart. "A lot of things have happened recently. Aunt Zhang passed away. In her last month or so, I took her on a road trip. In the end, she passed away in Dali. I have no regrets."
"Mengmeng got divorced first, and then she got into a car accident. She lay in a coma in the hospital bed for over a week before she woke up."
When she said this, she felt as if she had sailed through thousands of mountains.
Zhou Sinian was stunned.
He obviously didn't expect that Shen Qinghuan had experienced so much alone during the time he was sick.
He had promised Uncle Shen before that he would take good care of Huanhuan, but in the end, he seemed to have done nothing.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Sinian looked at her with a guilty look on his face, "I'm sorry, I don't think I was able to help at all!"
Shen Qinghuan was slightly startled, with surprise flashing in her eyes. She seemed to know why he said sorry to her. She remembered the old diary she saw when she was at the Shen family before.
Zhou Sinian wrote in his diary: "Uncle Shen said that I should marry Huanhuan when I grow up. I agreed, so I can't break my promise. I must live a good life and go find her when I grow up..."
There was an inexplicable feeling of bitterness in my heart, and my eyes felt a little hot.
Looking at Zhou Sinian like this, Shen Qinghuan suddenly didn't know what to say. He was obviously so kind and gentle...
She opened her mouth slightly and tried to force a smile, "Brother Si Nian, you don't have to say sorry to me. I'm doing well now and I don't need your help. All you have to do is take good care of yourself."
After a brief pause, Shen Qinghuan pretended to be cheerful again, with his eyebrows curved.
"Brother Si Nian, I heard from Auntie that you and Miss Ren are getting married soon, but I don't know the exact date. Brother Si Nian, if you get married, will you invite me to your wedding?"
She wanted to see him happy with her own eyes.
In her memory, Brother Si Nian always smiled so gently. He would hold her hand to buy her cotton candy, and when she got tired, he would put her on his strong back...
Zhou Sinian raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Well, it's almost time, Huanhuan, do you want to go? If you want to go, I will send you an invitation."
Shen Qinghuan: "Of course I do!"
Zhou Sinian: "Well, I'll give you the invitation tomorrow."
Shen Qinghuan nodded vigorously, concealing the mist deep in her eyes without leaving a trace. She felt very sad, but there was nothing she could do.
"Thank you! Brother Si Nian, if there is nothing else, I will go in first."
If she stayed any longer, she didn't know if he would notice the mist in her eyes.
After saying that, Shen Qinghuan couldn't wait to leave.
Zhou Sinian suddenly called out to her, "Huanhuan!"
Shen Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but pause. She turned her head and looked at the man who was a few steps away from her, "Brother Si Nian, is there anything else?"
Zhou Sinian raised the corner of his mouth and said gently, "Yangyang, I hope you can be happy, not compromise."
"You too! I also hope you can be happy, not compromise. Brother Si Nian, if..."
Shen Qinghuan bit the corner of her lip, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
She knew very well in her heart that she shouldn't say that because she couldn't bear the consequences.
But when she met those eyes with distinct black and white, the bitterness in her heart was as thick as ink, and even her heart ached slightly.
Zhou Sinian looked at her and smiled, without urging her.
Shen Qinghuan pinched the tip of his index finger with his thumbnail, leaving a visible mark that almost bled. He was clearly so sad, so why was he still smiling? He was clearly so sad...
"Brother Si Nian, if you don't want to marry Miss Ren, then don't get married, okay?"
Finally, she said this sentence, her eyes burning.
Zhou Sinian lowered his eyes and stared at her intently.
His complexion lost its former rosy complexion and became pale and haggard, and his eyes became dull, as if covered with a thick layer of dust.
"Brother Si Nian."
Seeing that Zhou Sinian remained silent, Shen Qinghuan greeted him again.
Zhou Sinian suddenly smiled, and the smile spread to his eyes, as if flowers were blooming.
"How can that be possible?"
"Huanhuan, I've already promised them. The elders of both families have met, and even the date has been set. How can I break my promise to them?"
When Shen Qinghuan heard this, he suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart.
She raised her chin slightly, her beautiful eyes burning with fire. "But you clearly don't want to marry Miss Ren. Will you be happy if you force yourself like this? Brother Si Nian, tell me, will you be happy if you force yourself like this?"
Zhou Sinian suddenly smiled, looked at her deeply, said nothing, and walked into the elevator.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned and quickly chased after him.
But the elevator door had already slowly closed. By the time she came to her senses and pressed the button, it was too late. The elevator door had already closed completely.
Suddenly she thought of something, and she quickly picked up her phone and dialed Zhou Sinian's number.
A familiar ringtone rang in her ears, but soon, the voice of the mobile secretary rang again: "The user you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please call again later! The user you dialed is temporarily..."
Zhou Sinian didn't answer her phone.
Shen Qinghuan was so angry that she wanted to curse, but in the end, she held back and returned to her empty home in disappointment.
She turned on all the lights and the darkness was dispelled.
She threw herself on the sofa, feeling weak and dejected, half lying there lazily, not wanting to do anything.
Shen Qinghuan couldn't understand. He clearly didn't want to, so why didn't he refuse?
A familiar cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.
She was stunned for a moment, then fumbled to pick up the phone that was thrown aside.
Jiang Yu?!
Since that afternoon when she checked out of the B&B and left without saying goodbye, Jiang Yu never contacted her again, and she was always busy and didn't even have time to think about anything about him.
It was as if they had disappeared from each other's lives.
