BaJie: [He was traveling across the most dangerous northern district to Fengcheng. The situation was already turbulent. During the several hours of the journey, the frequent car accidents could cost him his life, and it would even be difficult to find the source.]
LiShuang frowned, packed her clothes and went to the bathroom.
[What happened to him has nothing to do with me.]
ShenJi had just returned home covered in blood, and before he could wash the blood off his hands, he heard an angry voice coming from afar.
He paused in rinsing his fingers.
It's been a long time since I heard her making so much noise.
The lips biting the cigarette unconsciously curled up a little, and the thick and sinister look in the eyes also dissipated a little.
He pinched the cigarette with his bloody fingertips, put it out and threw it into the trash can.
Oh shit.
I actually miss her a little.
I want to finish with her what I didn't do during the day.
Upon hearing the news, LuJiuqian rushed to the villa in a hurry.
"Where's the Second Master?"
HeiFeng gestured toward the sofa: "Tease Heidi."
LuJiuqian ran to the living room.
"Oh my God! Why didn't you bring me with you when you went to see ShenYuci today?"
ShenJi kicked Heidi with his foot. He still couldn't forget what LiShuang said about ShenYuci having seen her. His voice was cold to the core.
"It's better to take it with you than to take you with me."
LuJiuqian looked sad and slumped heavily into the sofa.
"Seriously, why did you go looking for him?"
ShenJi glanced at him sideways: "I don't like him."
"?" LuJiuqian raised his eyebrows, questioning, "Have you been unhappy with him for just one or two days? Why is he so reckless all of a sudden?"
ShenJi licked the tip of his teeth and raised his chin.
"I feel particularly unhappy today."
LuJiuqian couldn't argue with him: "So how is the battle going?"
ShenJi looked coldly: "I got stabbed."
"Him? Just one knife?" LuJiuqian smacked his lips.
If I were there, I would have stabbed him a few more times!
ShenJi said in a very calm tone: "I'm talking about me."
Until now, there are still shirts in the trash can that have not been disposed of, and my abdomen is aching slightly.
LuJiuqian sat up straight, in disbelief.
"What about him?"
ShenJi thought of the lens he had rubbed into his eye: "A leg is broken and an eye is blind."
LuJiuqian breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're leaving injuries in the open... Aren't you afraid that the Shen family will be upset?"
After listening to LiShuang's thoughts, ShenJi had long wanted to have a confrontation with the Shen family, but he still had some concerns.
Today the fuse has been completely lit.
ShenJi patted Heidi's head, leaned back on the sofa, and spoke coldly.
"If you can't sit still, go die."
LuJiuqian supported himself on the edge of the sofa with one arm, leaning slightly to one side, his voice full of energy.
"Then take me with you next time."
ShenJi: "I will return to Fengcheng in a few days, please keep an eye on it for me..."
It was rare for LuJiuqian to see him hesitate when speaking. He had long forgotten that he was worried to death about him just now, and smiled meaningfully with narrowed eyes.
"Who are you keeping an eye on?"
Small mouth?
He didn't ask this time, in order to avoid stressing someone out again.
ShenJi said in a dull voice: "LiWanwan."
"Oh." LuJiuqian lost all his strength and leaned back.
ShenJi raised his chin and gestured to the wine cabinet: "Go open a bottle of wine."
The wound needs to be numbed.
Some throbbing in my heart...
Also needed.
-
The lights in the operating room of the private hospital were turned off, and when ShenYuci woke up, it was already early morning.
The lights in the ward stayed on, the anesthesia wore off, and the pain in the eye socket spread to the entire facial nerves.
ShenYuci opened his left eye, and the clenched fist at his side was shaking continuously.
"Zhong Wen." His voice was hoarse and weak as he gritted his teeth.
The man in a suit and leather shoes immediately stood by the bed, his face full of worry: "Boss Shen."
"How is my injury?" ShenYuci spoke with effort into every word.
Zhong Wen lowered his head even lower.
"I am blind in my right eye. The doctor said the damaged skin can be transplanted and I can get a prosthetic eye later, but my left leg will be disabled for life."
ShenYuci's left eye was bloodshot and his voice was hoarse, like a desert traveler who had not had water for a long time.
"Help me do something."
Zhong Wen nodded vigorously: "Please give your instructions, Mr. Shen."
…
——
ShenYuci was in great pain and had not slept all night in the private hospital. He called LiShuang at around seven in the morning.
LiShuang didn't set the alarm like in her previous life, but she was woken up again without getting enough sleep. This time she looked at the phone.
When she found out it was ShenYuci, she muted the phone and stuffed it under the pillow.
ShenYuci hung up the phone before the ringing ended.
She should not be awake yet, let her sleep a little longer.
Call Zhong Wen again.
"How's it going?"
Zhong Wen said seriously, "Everything has been handled as instructed. I mentioned your injury at the Shen family. I just received news that the Li family will visit the Shen family today."
ShenYuci frowned : "Is she going too?"
Zhong Wen nodded: "We should come together."
ShenYuci cleared his throat and said, "After you finish explaining, come to the hospital to pick me up."
"But your injury..."
ShenYuci: "It's okay."
"Okay." Zhong Wen had no choice but to respond and wait for the call to end.
LiShuang slept until ten o'clock and did not think of calling ShenYuci back. She ate a few simple bites and got into the car at the urging of LiZeshou.
She was in a separate car, with her family of three sitting in the front.
In order to take care of Mr. Shen and not let him be alone in his later years, all the Shen family members live in the old house.
When LiShuang entered the house, she noticed that none of the servants, from the top to the bottom, had a smile on their faces. She also felt the tense atmosphere hanging over the entire Shen family.
LiZeshou entered politely.
LiWanwan stood side by side with LiShuang and whispered, "Looking at the atmosphere, it seems like something has happened."
LiShuang did not respond to her, but asked MaoAnan to guard the door according to the rules.
LiShuang walked through the main hall corridor and into the reception room before she saw the Shen family.
Hua Xiaolian sat there, wiping her tears with a handkerchief, looking extremely sad.
LiShuang only saw ShenYuci's back.
LiZeshou laughed as he walked over: "Brother Shen, I brought some gifts for you and your sister-in-law..."
When he handed the things to the servant and walked to the sofa, his voice stopped abruptly and his expression froze.
LiShuang, as a junior, followed behind and was stunned for a few seconds when she saw ShenYuci.
He was still wearing his custom-made suit, sitting there with a gentle and dignified temperament, but he had taken off his glasses and wore a black eye patch on his right eye, through which the edge of the gauze could be faintly seen, and even blood could be seen on it.
There was also a black cane on the sofa next to him.
When ShenYuci saw her, he smiled, narrowed his exposed left eye, and raised his hand towards her.
"Xiao Shuang, come here."
LiWanwan didn't react much when she saw ShenYuci like this. She just sat quietly beside LiZeshou.
LiZeshou leaned against Shen Guang's side, still not coming back to his senses, his voice dry.
"Yu Ci, what's wrong?"
Shen Guang's face was filled with sadness that he could not hide: "The driver who was on shift was driving at night and accidentally hit a stone pillar."
Hua Xiaolian's crying voice, which had just subsided, rang out again, heartbreakingly.
"I want that driver to pay for my son's life! Look at him, he was a good man, but now he has become like this!!"
"Don't worry, it's been handled." Shen Guang patiently comforted her.
LiShuang looked at ShenYuci without moving her gaze. His eyes were full of fatigue and he looked much thinner.
"Are you scared by my appearance?" ShenYuci put his palm on her back.
Through the thin clothes, LiShuang straightened her back.
ShenYuci lowered his eyelashes and retracted his hand: "Sorry, my hands are cold."
LiShuang felt confused.
This kind of cautious love is heartbreaking just by hearing others talk about it, let alone experiencing it personally.
LiShuang: "You need to take good care of your eye injury. You don't have to care about my feelings."
The man who was fine more than ten hours ago has become like this now. You don't have to guess to know that he did not listen to the doctor and chose to apply an eye patch over the gauze to compress the wound.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." ShenYuci held the warm teacup in his palm with a gentle smile.
LiShuang felt a little touched.
[If the original owner hadn't died, it would actually be a good idea to choose ShenYuci…]
BaJie nodded: [He really is, I am crying to death! ]
[In fact, for a person you love madly, it is enough for you to just like him well. Host, how about you consider him? ]
LiShuang pursed her lips in silence.
Not to mention that all his tenderness is given to others.
The most important thing is that she really doesn't like him.
My feeling for him is like a cold wind in winter, which can never warm my heart.
LiShuang said calmly: [I am just a substitute in his heart, and I can't love him for the original owner. ]
"There are so many people here, it looks like there's something good going on."
An unruly laugh sounded behind the group.
