Chapter Sixty-Six: Sweetie, Don't Cry Anymore



"Ah!" Tang Wan opened her mouth and sneezed slightly.

It was already late. At this time of day, Tang Wan would usually be asleep on the bed that Lu Lin had made for her.

Her head felt like it weighed a ton, and little by little, she started to feel sleepy.

Seeing that Tang Wan looked somewhat dejected, Fu Wenzhi stood up, took a plush blanket from his room, and draped it over Tang Wan.

Tang Wan reached out and squeezed the blanket. She was completely covered by the blanket, with only her pretty little face showing. The way she looked at Fu Wenzhi was just like that of a ragdoll cat.

It's still the kind of Ragdoll cat that isn't very affectionate.

Fu Wenzhi thought to himself casually.

I feel that Tang Wan is sometimes exactly like his cat named Bubu.

Equally beautiful, equally well-behaved, and equally wary of people.

However, Tangwan is somewhat different from it.

Tang Wan protects everyone; it's like an innate instinct she was born with.

Even if the person she wants to save has nothing to do with her, or even if that person has bullied her, she doesn't care.

Fu Wenzhi couldn't understand Tang Wan.

He couldn't understand Tang Wan's logic.

In his view, he would only lend a helping hand based on his mood, provided that his own interests would not be harmed.

We can help, but we cannot harm ourselves; this has always been the Fu family's educational philosophy.

However, Tangwan was different.

She was like a piece of clear glass, or an icy jade pendant, or chalcedony made of ice crystals.

The way you look at her will determine the kind of feedback you receive.

She is beautiful, even selfless.

In just a few days, Fu Wenzhi even had the idea of ​​wanting to investigate Tang Wan.

I want to see what it's like when a saint like Tang Wan becomes tainted with selfishness and favoritism.

Or perhaps, she already had ulterior motives, just not towards herself.

Her ulterior motive was towards Lu Lin, who was the first to discover the precious jade.

Fu Wenzhi stared at Tang Wan for so long that Tang Wan felt something was off.

She looked at Fu Wenzhi, her eyes seemingly filled with questions.

It's as if it's saying...

[What's wrong? ]

Fu Wenzhi shook his head and turned to look at the message that had been sent.

Like the Lu family, the Fu family could only stand outside the danger zone. They were both legitimate businessmen and naturally wouldn't step on any landmines.

Even his own father only led those people around and then came back.

Thinking of those who went without hesitation, Fu Wenzhi's gaze fell on Tang Wan. At that moment, Fu Wenzhi suddenly realized that Tang Wan's character resembled someone else's.

They are just like those warriors who rush into danger without hesitation.

They gave their lives for others and for their beliefs.

Tang Wan was so tired, but she couldn't stop worrying about Lu Lin, so she just stared wide-eyed and stubbornly kept going.

Finally, Fu Wenzhi couldn't stand it anymore, so he patted Tang Wan's head and said, "Let's go, go and rest."

"Children who don't rest won't grow tall."

In Tang Wan's limited memory, she had never heard such gentle advice before. She was dazed because of her sleepiness and was led by Fu Wenzhi to the guest room.

Fu Wenzhi knew that there was a difference between men and women, so he just stood at the door and watched Tang Wan crawl into bed like a little turtle, and then turned on a small night light for her.

"good evening."

Tang Wan watched his departing figure and silently replied to herself.

[good evening]

Tang Wan lay in the unfamiliar surroundings, her heart still filled with unease.

She quietly exhaled, her mouth filled with the sweet taste of strawberries.

It smelled like the disposable toiletries Fu Wenzhi had just taken.

Coincidentally, this tastes exactly the same as the toothpaste that Lu Lin bought for Tang Wan.

This made her feel somewhat at ease.

He didn't take back the blanket that Fu Wenzhi had brought; he just draped it over the soft quilt, and it still smelled of Fu Wenzhi.

It's like the scent of wood, a silent and profound fragrance.

Tang Wan opened her eyes, her heart was pounding, she blinked once, and tears fell down her cheeks.

She gritted her teeth and didn't utter a single word.

Where exactly is Lu Lin?

Is he safe?

Little Tang Wan curled up in a ball, covering her head with her hands. Sadness spread in the darkness, causing her to break down helplessly.

Tang Wan's feigned composure deceived Fu Wenzhi; in reality, her worries never ceased.

Darkness devours courage, and despair spreads like a tide.

A pair of hands reaching out from the darkness seemed to have grabbed Tang Wan by the throat, pulling her little by little toward the silent, turbulent deep sea.

Tang Wan trembled as she climbed out of bed, arching her back and breathing heavily.

It really felt like I was suffocating.

"Ah..." she whispered a syllable from her throat.

Struggling to press the activation button.

The huge quilt was like an inescapable cage; she had imprisoned herself on this soft bed.

The stiffness in her limbs made her utterly disappointed in herself.

Why?

Why can't I be stronger?

If I had called out back then, would those people have stopped looking for Lu Lin?

Then it won't be me who comes back, it will be Lu Lin!

Reason is crumbling; all that remains is clinging to life in an attempt to save oneself.

Tang Wan broke out in a cold sweat.

They trickled down Tang Wan's lean body, turning into drops of sweat that fell onto the bedsheets, forming a damp puddle.

It hurts so much...

Somatization reaction, it makes the body very painful.

Tang Wan raised her hand shakily, wanting to pick up the cup on the table and take a sip of water to relieve her discomfort.
