Chapter 214 I'm sorry for not protecting you.

Shen Que felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this. He lost his grip on the half bunch of grapes in his hand and dropped them directly into the trash can.

Meng Zhiyi interrupted his thoughts when he heard the voice and looked over curiously.

When she saw the remaining half bunch of grapes lying quietly in the trash can, her face fell slightly: "Why did you throw away my grapes?"

Shen Que quickly calmed down his emotions, turned around and apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't hold it firmly just now, I didn't throw it on purpose."

"If you like it, I'll buy you more later."

Meng Zhiyi pouted and whispered, "That can't be wasted like that."

【When I was a kid, I was almost beaten to death by Yang Yong because of half a steamed bun.】

"..." Shen Que suppressed his emotions, walked over, bent his head and kissed her, and said in a hoarse voice: "Baby, I'm going to the bathroom."

"Oh, go ahead." Meng Zhiyi felt that Shen Que's voice was not right.

But without giving her time to think carefully, Shen Que turned around and quickly went to the bathroom.

After closing the door, Shen Que leaned against it somewhat weakly.

The hands hanging at his sides couldn't stop shaking.

It's not that he hadn't investigated Meng Zhiyi. Before he realized that he fell in love with her, he had already memorized every detail about Meng Zhiyi.

He knew better than anyone in the Meng family what she had experienced in the Yang family.

However, he previously thought that the soul in the body was another person, so he only felt sympathy for everything Meng Zhiyi encountered.

But now...

His baby, the one he holds at the top of his heart, the one he wishes he could present all the good things to...

The one who has suffered those hardships.

When he thought of this, Shen Que felt that the cold words on the papers were like sharp knives stabbing him.

He couldn't imagine, and even didn't dare to imagine, what Meng Zhiyi felt at that time.

At this moment, Shen Que felt as if an invisible hand was tightly grasping his heart, wanting to crush it.

For a long time...

It was so long that Meng Zhiyi thought he had fallen into the toilet, and Shen Que finally tried hard to calm his impulse to kill the Yang family.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Wang Xiao.

[Send the Yang family to the poorest and most chaotic place in California. I will let them suffer all the hardships in the world.]

After doing all this, Shen Que calmed down and walked out of the bathroom.

"Why did you take so long? Are you feeling unwell?" Meng Zhiyi asked with concern.

Shen Que didn't answer. He just sat down and held her hand, wrapped his whole palm around her and gently rubbed it with his fingertips.

Meng Zhiyi felt that he was a little strange.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Meng Zhi asked hesitantly.

Shen Que looked at her tenderly, and deep in his eyes was a heartache that Meng Zhiyi could not understand.

"Baby, am I not doing well enough?"

"ah?"

Meng Zhiyi was a little confused by his incoherent words.

"I'm wondering if I'm not good enough to you, not a qualified boyfriend, and not giving you a sense of security."

Meng Zhiyi blinked, even more confused: "Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

[Shen Que... should be the more perfect other half, right? ]

[He is emotionally stable, patient with me, generous with money, handsome, and has a good figure...]

[It seems there is nothing missing. 】

But for Shen Que, these are not exaggerations.

From the moment he heard Meng Zhiyi's words "she has no home", Shen Que realized that Meng Zhiyi had always felt insecure.

He wanted to say that he could be her support, her safe haven, and her home to return to no matter where and at any time.

But Shen Que knew that some things are more useful when done than when spoken.

"I'm sorry for not protecting you." Shen Que held her hand tightly and said slowly.

"This incident was just an accident. You don't have to blame yourself."

After Meng Zhiyi finished speaking, he sat up straighter, then reached out and touched his chin: "Look, haven't you had enough rest these days? You have dark circles under your eyes, and your beard has grown. Cut your hands."

"Baby, are you giving up?" Shen Que made a pitiful expression, bent down, put his chin in her palm and rubbed it gently.

With his palms itchy, Meng Zhiyi couldn't help laughing: "Well, not handsome anymore."

"But I am already yours. Even if you dislike me, you can't get rid of me."

"Is this all up to me?"

"Well, I'm on to it."

"Then I feel very sorry."

"Then I'll take the dowry with me, and the baby won't be left without any loss."

"Then... I'll accept it with reluctance~"

"Thank you for taking me in, baby."

In the dim light, Shen Que sat in front of the hospital bed, close to Meng Zhiyi, and coaxed her softly.

Meng Zhiyi looked at him sitting on the hard stool, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked, "This bed is quite wide, do you want to get on?"

"Okay." Shen Que didn't hesitate for a second and climbed directly onto the bed.

On the hospital bed, he carefully held the person in his arms, and it was at this moment that his nerves, which had been tense since the day of the explosion, finally relaxed completely.

"I'm so glad you're okay." Shen Que kissed her between the eyebrows.

Meng Zhiyi snuggled into his arms, found a comfortable position, closed her eyes and listened to the strong heartbeat in his chest.

"It's great to be able to see you as soon as I open my eyes..."

The moonlight was bright. Meng Zhizhou stood up and walked over from the lounge. He looked at the two people hugging each other on the hospital bed through the moonlight, and his eyes softened unconsciously.

The Meng family members behind him didn't dare to breathe heavily and just stood behind him and watched eagerly.

After a while, Meng Zhizhou turned around and said softly, "Go back. It's enough for me to have him by my side."

Meng's mother bit her lip, her face full of loneliness.

Father Meng sighed, reached out and patted his wife, "Let's go."

In the days that followed, even though they knew that there was still a gap between Meng Zhiyi and them, the Meng family still persisted in visiting her in the hospital every day.

It’s not that Meng Zhiyi can’t sense their desire to make up for the loss, but for her at the moment, such compensation has no meaning at all.

After all, I had already died in that ravine.

So she still maintained her original attitude and treated the Meng family indifferently.

The hospital stay was slow and long.

After Meng Zhiyi appealed several times that she really could not stay any longer, Shen Que and the Meng family finally agreed to discharge her from the hospital.

After leaving the hospital, Meng Zhiyi followed the Meng family back home.

After regaining her memories, she always felt strange when she stepped into the Meng family again.

So except for eating, she locked herself in her bedroom at other times.

That day, Meng Zhiyi got up early, put on a black casual suit and left the Meng family.

She said in the family group that she was going to meet a friend, then parked a car and headed for the suburbs.

An hour later, Meng Zhiyi arrived at the Martyrs' Park in the suburbs.

She stood outside the Martyrs' Park for a long time, and then walked straight to the deepest part of the Martyrs' Park according to the information she had found.
