After midsummer comes early autumn.
Chen Yanshu was not in good health, and as soon as the wind started to blow in Shanghai, he put on a thin jacket and held a hand warmer.
Pale face, thin body,
Every time Xihe saw him cough, he was terrified, afraid that he would collapse.
But this guy has no self-awareness at all. Even when he was shaking so badly, he still took her for a ride and strolled around the streets. He held her hand in the street without any hesitation, and occasionally gave her a light kiss on the cheek with a blushing face.
Xihe...
She thought he had gone too far.
As a result, this guy went back home at night and tortured her.
As if to release all the longing and love for the next few decades,
Such disregard gave Xihe the illusion of a doomsday carnival.
"Inkstone..."
Xihe panted and wanted him to stop this crazy behavior.
"good."
Chen Yanshu didn't give her a chance to speak, lowered his head and stopped her from saying anything.
Xihe sobbed, completely lost in passion.
This day,
Chen Yanshu took Xihe out again.
They strolled hand in hand on the street, with A Zhong and his friends following behind from a distance.
"Newspapers for sale, newspapers for sale..."
A child ran up to Xihe and the others, smiling with a thin face: "Sir and Madam, do you need a newspaper?"
The hawking voices, the shoe shiners, the bun sellers,
Rickshaws come and go, women in cheongsams, and ladies going in and out of Western restaurants.
There are also skinny children with big, rolling eyes in the streets and alleys... Poverty and wealth form a grand Ukiyo-e.
Xihe looked uncomfortable: "Okay, I want one."
"Okay, here you go."
The child's eyes lit up, and he immediately wiped his hands, lowered his head, took out a clean newspaper from his bag, and handed it to her with both hands. Afraid that she would not accept it, he explained, "Madam, I love cleanliness and will definitely not dirty your hands."
Xihe felt a pang in his heart, and took it with a smile: "Yeah."
After searching for a while, he remembered that he never brought money with him when he went out, and hurriedly looked at Chen Yanshu.
"I'll let Ah Zhong pay for it."
Chen Yanshu tightened her hand and looked behind her. A Zhong immediately ran over and gave the money to the child.
"Thank you, sir and madam, you two are so kind."
The child smiled and looked up, then ran away, shrinking his body and squeezing into the crowd.
Xihe curled his lips and lowered his head to open the newspaper. It was nothing but some romantic stories, such as which lady was with whom, and there was a new beautiful singer in the Paramount...
The only useful thing is that I heard that the south seems to be reorganizing its army recently and seems to be ready to take action.
Xihe frowned. She remembered that the famous Northern Expedition would be coming soon.
"don’t worry."
Chen Yanshu raised his hand to wipe away the wrinkles between her brows and took her into the car: "I won't let anything happen to you."
Xihe smiled and said, "I know."
But she wasn't worried about herself, but about the millions of compatriots who would suffer. Especially in a few years, the Japanese would invade and the entire country would be devastated...
Even though she knew they would win in the end, she still felt heartbroken every time she thought of this history.
Seeing her like this, Chen Yanshu's eyes deepened and he stopped talking. When he got home, he took her directly into the study and put a stack of documents into her hands.
"this……"
Looking at the bill records in his hand, Xihe widened his eyes in shock.
Chen Yanshu smiled gently, holding her in his arms, resting his chin on her shoulder and looking out the window: "I'm not feeling well, I probably won't be able to see the rest of the way..."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Before he could finish his words, Xihe interrupted him hastily.
