"Su Anran, are you alright?" He had always been calm in the face of situations, but now her heart tightened and her tone was filled with panic.

"I... I feel a little out of breath and dizzy. " In a moment of desperation, she grabbed Shen Geng's strong and small arm, her delicate features twisted in pain.

Shen Geng suddenly raised his head and looked around, and said with certainty, "Even though the space here isn't big, the oxygen inside is enough. You won't suffocate!"

The large bony hand was covered by the weak little hand, as if it was a kind of silent consolation.

"But …" I feel that breathing is very difficult! " Su Anran tried her best to enunciate every single word, swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Seeing her expression, Shen Geng thought about the psychology lessons he had attended in university.

There was a psychological lesson about the fear of confined spaces, which was a mental illness. When a patient was in a small, confined space, they would panic and feel like they were suffocating …

"Su Anran, listen, close your eyes right now. Just leave the rest to me!" Shen Geng made a prompt decision.

Su Anran seemed as if she had not recovered from her shock and a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.

"Hiss ~ ~ ~"

Shen Geng used some force to tear off a piece of cloth from his shirt, and then tied it to Su Anran's eyes, blocking all the light.

"No!" Having lost the light, Su Anran reflexively wanted to resist. She was extremely afraid and let out a short scream.

Shen Geng opened his arms wide and pulled her into his embrace.

"An Ran, calm down. Nothing will happen to you. You won't suffocate. You're not in the elevator right now. You're only in my arms. Can you feel my presence?"

Shen Geng softly walked along Su Anran's cold back, moving closer to her ear and consoled her in a gentle voice.

Having lost her sight, Su Anran, who had been tightly shackled in Shen Geng's embrace, could clearly feel the warmth coming from Shen Geng's body. It was very warm, and was like a bright winter sunlight, quietly sprinkling over his body.

Her hand relaxed, and her hanging heart finally settled down, like a big rock. She lightly leaned her face against Shen Geng's shoulder.

She could smell the faint aroma of perfume and tobacco on his body. Although this smell couldn't be considered to be pleasant, it somehow made her feel at ease.

In the silence, her breathing slowed.

After knowing that Su Anran's emotions had calmed down, but Shen Geng still did not let go of the person in her arms.

"Have you ever experienced this before?" After a long while, a deep voice broke the silence. The voice was no longer as sharp as it usually was. It was now filled with warmth.

"Yes." Su Anran's voice seemed soft and clear in the space.

"What happened?" Shen Geng's gaze dimmed.

"Four years ago, after my family fell, I lived in a low-rent house with my brother. Once, my brother went to school, and there were robbers in the house. I had no choice but to hide in the closet … "The inside of the wardrobe is very dark. Outside are the sounds of bandits cursing and things falling. The wardrobe door shook …" Su Anran narrated lightly, without any emotion.

Shen Geng's heart, however, seemed to have been ruthlessly pierced.

This was the first time Shen Geng heard her talking about his past self.

"However, this kind of thing has never happened since." Su Anran chuckled, "After I found a good job, I no longer need to live in that kind of place."

"It's fine, I'm here. I'm waiting for the electricity. I'm here." Although Shen Geng was unable to empathize with her, his heart was inexplicably sour. He lightly patted her back, as if he was coaxing a child.

When Shen Si was crying when he was young, he comforted him in such a way.

"Sorry, I was a bit long-winded. I shouldn't have said all these boring things to you, but I still thank you very much for listening to me." Su Anran never thought that she would open his heart to Shen Geng like this, and quickly tried to cover it.

"Nothing." Shen Geng replied indifferently. His tone was as calm as the night wind, it did not embarrass anyone.

"Ugh …" I feel better. " Sensing that his body was getting hotter and hotter, Su Anran immediately blushed as she gently pushed Shen Geng away, wanting to keep a certain distance between them.

She had to leave, or else it would be hard to ensure that she wouldn't be caught in this soft trap.

"Let's wait a little while longer." Shen Geng was a little bit stronger so he held her tightly, as if he was afraid that she would run away from him.

"I won't do anything to you." He whispered into Su Anran's ear.

Su Anran could clearly feel that his heart, at that moment, was violently clashing against her chest, as though a little deer had unknowingly burst into his heart.

She did not resist, and she did not have the strength to resist either. When she smelt the scent of Shen Geng's body, she instead felt a little drowsy.

When she woke up, she was already in the hospital.

The sunlight shone in through the curtain through the window, Su Anran subconsciously squinted her eyes, looking around the huge ward, but she did not see that familiar figure.

Su Anran was a little suspicious. Could it be that everything she had just experienced was just a distant dream?

The sound of the nurse knocking on the door pulled her from her thoughts.

"Hey, you're awake?" How do you feel? " the nurse asked with concern, taking notes in a small notebook.

"It feels pretty good, but... I would like to ask, have you seen a very tall and very handsome man? " Su Anran's tone was anxious, she wanted to confirm whether what she had experienced in the elevator was real or not.

"You mean the man who brought you here? He just left. Young miss, you are so happy. There was someone who treated you so well, but you didn't even know that when he carried you in, he was extremely anxious. " A trace of envy flashed in the nurse's eyes.

"What's wrong with me?" Knowing that Shen Geng had left, she somehow felt empty in her heart.

"You're fine. It's just that you're a little claustrophobic, and you even have a little hypoglycemia, which is why you fainted. You probably forgot to eat breakfast this morning, right?"

When Su Anran heard the nurse's words, she finally realised that she was not asleep at all, but had fainted.

In other words, Shen Geng was the one who brought him to the hospital, and then left without a trace?

Heh, since when did he become a living Lei Feng, not leaving a name for good deeds?

Su Anran laughed lightly, and a warm feeling filled her heart.

"I left in such a hurry today that I forgot to eat breakfast. By the way, when can I leave?"

"I've checked your body just now, and everything is normal. You can leave after taking this bottle of glucose." the nurse replied.

"Thank you. I would like to ask where you would like to settle the bill." It's my medical expenses. "

When the nurse heard this, she smiled again, "You don't have to worry about that. The gentleman who sent you here has already paid the medical expenses. Rest well. After the fight, you can leave.

The nurse turned and left.

Su Anran was the only one left in the huge pure white ward, she looked out the window at the nice weather, her mind resonating with that low voice.

You'll be fine.

I'm here.

This was Shen Geng's voice, she could not remember wrongly.

However, she was very surprised. Everyone said that Shen Geng was a cruel and merciless person.

However, what she saw was completely different.

It was he who had accompanied him in the darkness; it was he who had opened his arms to her and driven away her fear with warmth; it was he who had saved her.

With that in mind, she grabbed the phone that was placed beside her bed and without any hesitation, she dialed Shen Geng's number.

"Hey, it's me."

Holding back her excitement, she calmly said.

"You're awake?" The voice from that side was still indifferent, but now, Su Anran sounded as warm and heartwarming as it did then.

She could vaguely remember how he had comforted her with a tone that was as gentle as that of a child's …

"Mm, I'm awake."

"How do you feel?"

"It's alright," Su Anran swallowed her saliva, as if she had made up her mind, and said word by word. "Thank you, Shen Geng."

"No need. You saved me last time, so this time I only did what I should have. The two of us …" "It's finally equal."

Hearing this reply, Su Anran's gaze darkened.

It was even? Since when did they start to draw such a clear line of demarcation?

The corner of his mouth twitched, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. "But, I still have to thank you. Thank you for saving me, and also thank you for sending me to the hospital."

"There's no need to be polite. I'll leave the planning of the wedding to you. For me, you being able to complete it is my greatest thanks."

Su Anran paused, her mind suddenly went blank, only then did she realize, the current Shen Geng, was no longer as gentle as water in the elevator.

At this moment, he was about to become someone else's husband!

Su Anran, stop deceiving yourself. He is only treating you so warmly because she is forced by her circumstances, he is about to become someone else's husband. What are you waiting for?

A voice in his heart said.

She felt as if her heart had been roiled by burning oil.

"Are you listening?" After not hearing the other party's reply for a long time, Shen Geng opened his mouth.

"Ugh …" I'm sorry, I'm listening, I … Rest assured, I will plan the wedding properly! " Su Anran quickly adjusted her emotions and said as if nothing had happened.

"That's good. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

"Mm, it's fine."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Geng had already hung up.

He was finally cut off from her, no one would slap her in the face with jealousy, no more media stories about them, and her life would finally return to the peace she had wanted. Wasn't that what she wanted?

Why did it … Do you feel a little heartache?
