Chapter 337 He Understands Their Deal
...
Bai Jiashu was unconscious in his sleep and felt his body suddenly become very light, as if his soul had floated out of his body.
That unreal, unreal feeling...
But he also clearly heard the sounds coming from his ears, it was Secretary Xiao's roar, Madam Bai's smug laughter, and then a sigh.
It was as if Mr. Bai was standing beside the bed, looking at his pale face and tightly closed eyes. He weighed the options for a while and said, "You can notify the media now. Jiashu's funeral will be held next Sunday. He won't survive this week."
"No need for visits. No one should disturb him these days. Just let him lie here and rest in peace..."
Bai Jiashu frowned. He even thought about moving his fingers to show that there was still a sign of life. He even pricked up his ears to listen for the voice that was most familiar to him among the many malicious voices.
No...no voice of Xie Shiyuan.
However, there was a faint sound of crying.
It was like someone was mourning his death.
This was a ridiculous feeling. If he was really going to die, as people said, before dying, everyone would review the images of their entire life in their mind.
Bai Jiashu has no such experience.
I just felt my body become lighter, as if I had stepped into a pure white space.
The world in my eyes is white.
Bai Jiashu: “….”
This is magical.
If it weren't for the wrong scene, he would have suspected that he had arrived at the Naihe Bridge.
There is no life, no human breath...
All I saw was pure white. I stretched out my hand and saw a few snowflakes falling from the sky, icy and cool.
Bai Jiashu clearly felt this touch, and the crystal snowflakes melted into his fingertips...
Suddenly, there was a creaking sound around, as if a living creature had appeared.
Bai Jiashu looked back.
A cave appeared in the snow at some point, and a pink and white little fox was lying in the cave, looking at him curiously with its big, rolling eyes.
The fox has a lazy look, and one can almost see its stupidity in its flawless eyes.
Will there be foxes on Naihe Bridge?
This simply cannot be explained by science.
When Bai Jiashu saw the fox, he mistakenly thought he saw Xie Shiyuan. She often said that she was a fox. She liked to lie on a furry carpet, hold her chin with her hands, and rest her hands on the table, looking at people with her head tilted.
"Shi Yuan?" Bai Jiashu called out softly, a voice that was almost inaudible amid the sound of the blowing wind.
The little fox's fur suddenly stood up.
"Is Shi Yuan really... a fox?" Bai Jiashu's mind was a little confused. He reasonably suspected that he was dead, otherwise how could he see such an unreal scene.
The girl's face kept flashing in my mind.
Finally, Bai Jiashu shook his head, "How could Shi Yuan be a fox? I must be dead and hallucinating."
The little fox was still lying alone in the cave.
Bai Jiashu suddenly stepped forward and walked over.
When he slowly stretched out his hand and was about to touch the little fox...
The voice that came to his ears pulled him back to the hospital bed in an instant, along with his soul.
"Grandpa, Jiashu betrayed the Bai family. How should we write this tomb?"
"He handed such an important thing to Mr. Zhou. See if we can negotiate with Mr. Zhou and get some benefits. I heard that Xie Shiyuan and Mr. Zhou had a good relationship. Jiashu treated Xie Shiyuan so well when he was alive. She has to help him even if she doesn't want to."
"I don't know who Xie Shiyuan will marry in the future, Mr. Zhou or Xie Tingke. After all, it won't be the abandoned Jiashu... Alas, what a poor child."
No, Xie Shiyuan cannot marry Zhou Zongzheng, nor can she marry Xie Tingke.
Bai Jiashu discovered that he was not as open-minded as he had imagined. When he was alive, he always pretended to be open-minded and was able to give up everything and push her to others, but when he really died, his soul was filled with resentment.
He hopes that Xie Shiyuan will be happy and safe, but he doesn't want her to marry someone else at all. He hopes that he is the one who marries her and the one who stays with her.
He was just waiting for her...
When she finished her work and came back to him, he decided to tell her that he would never push her to others again. Even if he was facing death, he would possess her before death came.
Bai Jiashu tried desperately to open his eyes, wanting to prove with actions that he was not dead yet.
However, his body became light again, as if he had been stripped of his flesh and was floating, and he didn't know where the wind would take him.
When he regained consciousness, he saw Xie Shiyuan.
That was in Zhou Zongzhen's territory. Zhou Zongzhen leaned over and spoke in the girl's ear. The man smiled cruelly and teasingly, as if he was bewitching her to make a decision.
Zhou Zongzhen acted as if he was watching a show, and Xie Shiyuan became the object of his entertainment.
"Sacrifice yourself." He heard Zhou Zongzheng say word by word: "Or sacrifice Xie Tingke. He owes you a life. Do you have a way to convince him to agree?"
What should we do to convince Xie Tingke to agree to?
Bai Jiashu instinctively knew that something was wrong, so he quickly covered Xie Shiyuan's mouth, but his hand passed through the girl's body.
Under the warm yellow light, this scene is extremely heartwarming.
But it was Zhou Zongzhen's presence that destroyed the romantic and peaceful atmosphere. The man was holding a jade pendant in his hand, and the girl was sitting on a chair, looking up at him.
Their eyes met, and Zhou Zongzheng's fingertips brushed across the porcelain bowl on the table. There was a bowl of warm porridge, emitting a faint fragrance.
"A very unique birthday wish." Bai Jiashu heard Zhou Zongzheng say again. He was standing very close and could even see the smile on the man's lips. It was very faint, but it was a sincere smile, pouring out from those cold and murderous eyes.
"After all these years, you are the first person to give me your blessing."
"So I'll help you, save him."
"But I won't help you for no reason. If you ask for a life, you will lose one. I always believe in fair trade."
"Do you choose yourself or Xie Tingke?"
"Myself." Xie Shiyuan said.
"Why?" Zhou Zongzheng was puzzled. "You are so selfless and great. Are you acting in an idol drama? Miss Xie, do you think you are the heroine, sacrificing yourself to save others and still alive?"
"Whether I can survive or not is none of your business." Xie Shiyuan said.
Zhou Zongzheng crossed his arms across his chest, raised an arrogant eyebrow, and stared at the girl carefully, as if he was looking at a monster.
"You always bring me unexpected surprises, I hope this time will be the same."
Bai Jiashu: “….”
He understood their deal.
