Qi Jingchuan took off his glasses and pinched his nose bridge, then asked Lu Zhizhou in a low voice, "Zhizhou, do you regret it?"
Lu Zhizhou put down his phone and looked at him deeply. "What nonsense are you talking about? If I didn't save you, I would regret it. And if you were me, what would you do at that time?"
Qi Jingchuan thought about it and decided that if it were him, he would be willing to die immediately.
Looking at Qi Jingchuan's expression, Lu Zhizhou shrugged in confusion, "So, no matter who of us is in this situation, the result will be the same. I will do this, and you will do this, so don't think too much about it."
Lu Zhizhou's comfort had no effect on Qi Jingchuan, he still felt desperate and frightened.
If Lu Zhizhou could only live to the age of forty, then the rest of his life would be spent in endless guilt.
From that day on, Qi Jingchuan embarked on a journey to find talented people all over the world. No matter how slim the hope was, he would not give up even the slightest possibility.
After arriving in Jingcheng, the lives of Li Ran and the other two seemed to have returned to normal.
But Li Ran would often wake up from nightmares, in which Lu Zhizhou died at the age of forty.
She dreamed that she was holding Lu Zhizhou's black-and-white portrait and crying in Qi Jingchuan's arms until she fainted again and again.
Li Ran felt that she was about to become depressed.
She still suffered from insomnia again and again, woke up from nightmares again and again, and cried herself to sleep again and again.
Seeing Li Ran becoming increasingly thin and haggard, Qi Jingchuan and Lu Zhizhou were so anxious that they collapsed. They took turns accompanying Li Ran for 14 hours.
That day, Lu Zhizhou took Li Ran from Qi Jingchuan's arms. Qi Jingchuan kissed the girl lightly and went back to the company.
After Qi Jingchuan left, Lu Zhizhou held the girl in his arms and comforted her over and over again, "Baby, please don't be like this, okay? I'm really scared."
He was afraid that if he continued to do this, he would die before he reached the age of forty.
Li Ran looked at the man in front of her with lifeless eyes and silently hugged his waist tightly.
Lu Zhizhou sighed softly, "Baby, if something really happens to you, I won't be able to survive. You don't want me to not even live to be forty, right?"
Li Ran's eyes moved and showed a little more expression. Lu Zhizhou found that it was effective and decided to continue using "strong medicine".
"You and Jingchuan should live well so as not to waste my efforts, right?
Besides, I still have more than ten years to live. If I work hard, maybe I can see my son go to college by then, haha!"
Li Ran came to his senses, "What... what son..."
Seeing that the girl finally responded, Lu Zhizhou joked, "Ah! My dear baby, don't you like a son? Then a daughter is fine too, a daughter as cute and beautiful as my little Ranran."
Li Ran snorted, "What? I don't understand. Brother Zhizhou, I want to sleep!"
As long as Li Ran could sleep well, Lu Zhizhou tucked her in, turned off all the lights, and patted her gently.
"Good baby, go to sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up, brother will always be by your side."
After that day, Li Ran's sleep finally returned to normal.
Qi Jingchuan and Lu Zhizhou could finally relax and no longer have to stay by her side in 14-hour shifts.
After his sleep improved, Li Ran's mental state also improved a lot.
In order to prevent her from thinking too much, Qi Jingchuan chose to take her to work every day. He originally wanted her to follow Lu Zhizhou, but Lu Zhizhou recently flew to Yingguo to renew his contract with Louis Weiss.
Eagle Country is Fu Lanchen’s base camp, and Qi Jingchuan couldn’t feel at ease letting Li Ran and Lu Zhizhou appear there alone.
But he seemed to have forgotten that Fu Lanchen had already arrived in Jingcheng.
