Zhu Qinghao grabbed Sheng Yi's hand with heartache, and tears welled up in her eyes and dripped onto it with a "plop".
Those two hot tears, though they were falling into Sheng Yi's palm, felt as if they had fallen into his heart, burning him with unbearable pain.
Sheng Yi instinctively pulled his hand back, only to find that Zhu Qinghao was holding it very tightly, and he couldn't break free at all.
Then he realized that his hands were perfectly fine and there was no need for him to hide. If she wanted to look, then let her look.
Zhu Qinghao blinked, trying to make her teary eyes clearer and clearer.
Touching the scar on his palm, whose original horrific state was no longer visible, Zhu Qinghao's fingertips trembled slightly.
Clearly, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this jade pendant should have been hers in her past life, the spiritual spring should have been hers, and Sheng Yi's hand should have been saved.
But everything was ruined by Liu Yansong and the Lin family!
"I...I want to see Lin Bin."
According to what Old Master Zhu said last time, Lin Bin knew perfectly well that he had wronged the Zhu family, but he still tried to wipe out the entire Zhu family without any mercy.
Even for the smallest thing, he could draw a knife and slash at the doctor who treated him. Instead of making amends afterward, he planned to repeat the same trick and wipe out the Sheng family as well.
This kind of person is truly terrifyingly vicious.
Zhu Qing really wanted to see who this person was, that he could be so powerful and influential, that he could wipe out the entire Zhu family without anyone knowing in his past life, and that even the Sheng family didn't fare well.
When Sheng Yi heard her request, he hesitated at first because he felt that Lin Bin was too dangerous. Even if he tripped him up before leaving, it shouldn't have much of an impact on him.
However, he also knew Zhu Qinghao's persistence, especially when it came to matters involving her family; she would not give up.
Rather than letting her figure out her own way and risk doing it secretly, it's better for him to take her there. At least that way, he can protect her a little.
"Okay, I'll be going back to the hospital by the end of the new year at the latest. I'll take you to stay with me for a while then. My teacher and his wife would also like to meet you, is that alright?"
Seeing that Sheng Yi had agreed to take her to see Lin Bin, Zhu Qinghao showed a more relaxed smile.
It's good that she agreed, otherwise she would have to find a chance to ask the team for leave and then sneak away.
It's not that it's impossible, and it's not even that troublesome. However, it means she has to do this behind Sheng Yi's back, which she's not very willing to do.
Things that can be done openly and honestly are best done by two people discussing and agreeing on them.
Deceiving and hiding things repeatedly is detrimental to the long-term development of a relationship.
"Okay, I'll prepare gifts for them in advance."
She had heard that Yuan Yue and his wife wanted to see her, since they were the two elders who had taken care of Sheng Yi since he joined the army, and it was only right and proper for them to meet her.
Moreover, since Sheng Yi's parents passed away early, his teacher and his wife were like a second set of parents to him emotionally.
Sheng Yi, fearing Zhu Qing was nervous, gave her a reassuring smile.
"Don't be nervous. Your teacher and his wife are both very nice people. They've known about you for a long time and have a good impression of you. They will definitely like you."
Actually, Zhu Qinghao wasn't particularly nervous, but she still nodded with a smile in response to Sheng Yi's reassurance.
"If you're going back to your unit after the Lunar New Year, when are we going to get our marriage certificate? And what about the marriage certificate..."
Zhu Qinghao hadn't anticipated that, given the Zhu family's current situation, getting the marriage application approved would be quite difficult.
As if knowing Zhu Qinghao's worries, Sheng Yi placed his hands on her shoulders and gently turned her towards him.
