Chapter 193, there's another one here.
Shi Yuanxing paused for a moment, glanced at Shen Yichen with lingering anger, said nothing, and quickly opened the tent flap to go inside.
Upon entering, one immediately sees Qin Shuzhi on the chaise lounge.
A white blanket covered her, leaving only her sleeping face visible.
Shi Yuanxing walked up to her in a few steps, "Zhizhi."
Seeing her sleeping so soundly, Shi Yuanxing's eyes filled with worry and panic. He touched her face with trembling hands, and gently shook her arm through the blanket with his other hand, "Zhizhi, wake up..."
"Hmm~"
Qin Shuzhi opened her eyes groggily. When Shi Yuanxing's face came into view, her mind went blank for two seconds before her eyes lit up with surprise. "Husband?"
She immediately stood up and hugged him, "You're finally here."
Shi Yuanxing held her slender body tightly in his arms. Hearing her voice and feeling her warm and familiar body temperature, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense all night, finally settled down.
"I'm here, don't be afraid."
He gently stroked her back and whispered comforting words.
A moment later, he hurriedly released her, his gaze sweeping over her body with a tense expression. "Did he give you some drugs you shouldn't have taken?"
Qin Shuzhi shook her head blankly, "...No."
"No?" Shi Yuanxing was still a little worried, thinking of how she had just fallen asleep. "Then how did you fall into a deep sleep?"
Qin Shuzhi paused for a moment, then whispered, "I... I was sleepy... so I fell asleep."
"..."
Shi Yuanxing was both surprised and relieved that he could still sleep in this situation.
At least, she wasn't scared.
That's already amazing.
After checking her carefully again to make sure she was indeed safe and sound, he took her out.
Qin Shuzhi was led out of the tent by Shi Yuanxing. As soon as they came out, they saw Shen Yichen, whose face was bruised and battered, being controlled by the police. On the other side, Qin Zhiheng, who was cursing and threatening to hit someone, was being held back by two policemen.
Seeing Qin Shuzhi come out, Qin Zhiheng stopped paying attention to Shen Yichen and ran over to look her up and down. "Sister, are you... alright?"
Qin Shuzhi knew what he was worried about, and smiled reassuringly at him, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Qin Zhiheng's expression relaxed a little.
"It's good that you're alright."
At this moment, the police captain walked over and said to Shi Yuanxing, "Mr. Shi, the danger has passed, and the special forces have withdrawn. We need to take the suspect to justice first."
Shi Yuanxing nodded, "Thank you all for your hard work."
At this moment, Shen Yichen had already been put in shackles. The police around him urged him to leave, but he kept looking at the sky in the east where the first light of dawn was breaking. Then he turned back to look at Qin Shuzhi, his red eyes filled with loneliness and regret. "I promised to watch the sunrise with you here. I was thinking that I could make it up to you today. But it's too late. I can't wait any longer."
He released the witness who was fatal to him in order to lure Shi Yuanxing away and then bring Qin Shuzhi here.
He had actually made two plans. If Qin Shuzhi was willing to give him another chance and leave with him, then he would take her away and fly away.
If she doesn't want to, at least...
He can make up for the birthday celebration he owed her.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
He wanted to watch the stars with her, but the stars didn't come out even after waiting all night. He wanted to watch the sunrise with her, but it was too late.
All of this ultimately became his lifelong regret.
Just like his unrequited love for Qin Shuzhi, they ultimately missed each other.
Or perhaps it's just that Shi Yuanxing appeared at the perfect time; whether it was that night a year ago or today, Shi Yuanxing has appeared at crucial moments.
He was the one who seized the initiative both times, but unfortunately lost Qin Shuzhi.
"I don't care." Qin Shuzhi looked at him coldly.
“Shen Yichen, nobody wants to see you put on some sentimental act. If it weren’t for you, my husband and I would be happily celebrating our wedding anniversary right now.”
"My sunrises and sunsets, for the rest of my life, I will have a good man by my side." She held hands tightly with Shi Yuanxing and looked at him affectionately.
When she turned to look at Shen Yichen again, her gaze turned cold. "And you, I only hope that we will never meet again!"
Never see you again...
Shen Yichen looked at her with a sorrowful and painful expression, then suddenly gave a bitter smile, "If this is your birthday wish, then you will definitely get it."
Shi Yuanxing said to the police captain, "Officer, please take this person away."
The captain signaled his colleagues to take Shen Yichen away. Qin Zhiheng said to Shi Yuanxing, "Brother-in-law, Assistant Li is waiting for you at the private jet. You take my sister home first, and I'll go to the police station to handle the follow-up."
Shi Yuanxing nodded, "Okay."
After that, Qin Zhiheng left with the police.
Only Qin Shuzhi and Shi Yuanxing remained in the same place.
Shi Yuanxing pulled the person next to him into his arms, full of apology and self-blame. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being careless. I shouldn't have left your side last night."
How can you blame yourself for this?
Qin Shuzhi hugged him tightly, "If someone sets a trap, we will naturally be unable to guard against it."
Shi Yuanxing stroked her hair with his large hand, "Don't worry, from now on, this person... will never have the chance to appear in front of you again."
"Um."
Qin Shuzhi rested her head on his broad, warm chest and nodded gently.
Suddenly, a ray of golden light caught her eye. Qin Shuzhi's eyes lit up, and she pointed eastward with delight, "Honey, the sun is about to rise!"
Shi Yuanxing looked in the direction she was pointing and saw a warm golden hue rising from the horizon where the sea and sky met in the morning light.
It's a sign of sunrise.
"Can we watch the sunrise before we leave?" Qin Shuzhi asked.
Shi Yuanxing looked at the woman with bright, sparkling eyes, his gaze gentle, "Of course."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shuzhi pulled him to a large rock further ahead, saying, "Let's sit here and watch."
The two sat side by side, facing the distant sea and the horizon.
The sun was just beginning to rise, its rays not glaring, but rather radiating a vibrant, boundless energy.
"I heard that Haichuan Island is the best place to watch the sunset, and it's true."
Qin Shuzhi turned to look at Shi Yuanxing, "You know, before my birthday last year, I hoped to watch a beautiful sunrise here with the person I would spend my life with on my birthday."
She nestled in his arms, a happy smile on her face. "I never imagined that this wish would come true this year."
Looking at the smile on her face, which was even more radiant than the sunrise, Shi Yuanxing put his arm around her slender waist and gazed at her with deep affection. "I am honored to be the one who will walk hand in hand with you through life and accompany you through all the splendor of the world, from sunrise to sunset."
"Today's sunrise belongs to just the two of us." Shi Yuanxing gently kissed her forehead. "Happy birthday, my Mrs. Shi."
Qin Shuzhi looked at him with a gentle smile, then whispered in his ear, "It's not two people, it's three of us."
Shi Yuanxing paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked around.
Didn't Zhiheng already leave with the main group?
Looking at his foolish expression, Qin Shuzhi helplessly took his hand and placed it on her abdomen:
“There’s another one here.”
