He couldn't even scold her if he wanted to.

She stared at Su Yun for a long time with a complicated look in her eyes, the fear that was spreading endlessly slowly disappeared.

Wen Hao Lun said that was right, Su Qiao An was not a good medicine, but a poison.

A mild but deadly dose of poison.

Unknowingly, it had penetrated his internal organs and entered his blood.

Once the poison flared up, he would either die or go crazy.

If he couldn't find her, he would slowly die in regret. Once he found her, his paranoia would only get worse and worse.

That kind of pressure sometimes made him feel suffocated and weak.

He focused on Su Qiao An, and closed his eyes extremely tiredly, "Rest well, I'll go and take care of the ingredients."

He looked at the medicine on the bedside table and added, "The medicine was placed on your bedside table. Take it before you go to bed."

"Oh …" Su Qiao An felt that Zhu Jiangci's mood was very bad. She urgently wanted to see his face clearly, but she could not see it clearly. Her vision was still blurry, and only the outline of his face could be vaguely seen.

Zhu Jiangci walked out of the door, and then pressed his hand on his forehead, he was extremely tired.

Indoor

Su Qiao An sat and stared blankly at the empty and quiet room.

Only when the cold air invaded her exposed muscles and skin did she finally realize that she was wearing nothing but a towel.

He pulled up the blanket to cover himself as his mind drifted away.

Zhu Jiangci's previous reaction seemed to be very strange. As for the specifics, she couldn't tell …

He seemed a little too extreme, but there didn't seem to be anything abnormal about him …

Su Qiao An frowned her delicate eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

She had not slept since she had taken the medicine, and had found spare glasses in the first drawer of the bedside table and put them on before getting out of bed.

It was not like she had expected, going out of the bedroom after dressing.

She thought that Zhu Jiangci was really cooking in the kitchen, but who knew that there was no one in the kitchen.

She called out twice, but no one answered.

When she reached the door of the study, she heard a man's voice coming from inside.

She seemed to be on the phone, and she sounded very serious. As for what she had said, she was listening to it in a disjointed manner, as if she didn't know what they were talking about.

After knocking for a long time, Zhu Jiangci finally let her in.

Opening the door, seeing that Zhu Jiangci had hung up, she hesitated at the door, not knowing what to say after she entered.

"Why didn't you come in?" Zhu Jiangci's tone of voice was calm, no emotions could be discerned.

The more he was like this, the more Su Qiao An panicked.

After entering the room, she leaned against the desk and hesitantly said, "What happened just now, I …"

"You've already explained it."

Su Qiao An shut his mouth.

She stared at Zhu Jiangci seriously, "Are you angry?"

"Nope." He was extremely cold.

Su Qiao An secretly sighed, from the way he spoke, he knew that Su Yun was angry, if not, he would not be speaking to him in such a manner.

"What do you want me to do to calm you down?"

She did not get an answer.

Zhu Jiangci acted as if he had not heard her and completely ignored her.

She laughed bitterly, "Zhu Jiangci, do you really not plan to bother with me? "If you don't want to see me that much, then I'll just move back for the time being. I'll come back when you're no longer angry."

As she spoke and was about to leave, Zhu Jiangci's face darkened, "Stop!"

Su Qiao An froze and did not move.

Zhu Jiangci looked at her coldly, "Are you threatening me?"

"How would I dare? Aren't I afraid that you'll feel annoyed when you see me?"

Zhu Jiangci was angry, not at her, but at himself.

He was losing more and more control over his emotions, and he was becoming more and more helpless as he faced everything related to Su Qiao An rationally.

Instead, he was angered into laughing by Su Qiao An's wronged attitude, "You're the only one who is clever, knowing full well that I can't harden my heart against you."

"Are you angry?" she asked, carefully looking at him.

Zhu Jiangci acknowledged gently, his originally gloomy face became a lot more gentle, "If I continue getting angry, then I won't even have my wife anymore."

He saw that Su Qiao An was certain that he would not be angry with her now, and that was why he was so arrogant.

They were about to run away from home as soon as they found out what had happened. They would just put on a little face and say that they were going to move out, so they would keep calm with each other.

Calm down?

How could he keep calm?

She was obviously trying to add fuel to the fire and anger him to death.

Zhu Jiangci waved his hand lightly, pushed his chair back, and patted his thigh, "Come here."

She understood what Zhu Jiangci meant and felt inexplicably ashamed.

The corners of his eyes twitched. While he was hesitating, he thought that Lu Sheng was still in a rage. It would be better to follow his intentions so as to avoid provoking him again.

Obediently, she was pulled to sit on his lap.

"Sorry, but I was too emotional and scared you, right?"

She shook her head slightly. "No."

I need you to worry about everything and leave everything else to you to take care of. I know you are tired, Zhu Jiangci, but actually, if you can't hold on any longer, you can call for me to stop. " She had become more and more reliant on Zhu Jiangci, to the point where she would even think of letting him do small things for her.

She would become a person who didn't care about anything, not even about anything.

With so much pressure on him, it became an indestructible boulder. How hard would it be to carry it on his back and walk forward?

She was afraid that Zhu Jiangci would feel tired someday, and she would want to get rid of her, who had already become a burden.

She was imperfect and had many shortcomings.

Zhu Jiangci accepted every single one of them. He accepted every single one of their headstrong little suggestions, and unreasonable little tempers.

The more he was like this, the more tired he would become.

"It doesn't matter, I'm not tired." As long as she didn't leave, it didn't matter.

Compared to accommodating an incomplete her, losing her forever made him more sad and even more terrified.

The thought that had been instilled into his mind since he was young was that he lived not for himself but for his Chu Family. He only needed to be an indifferent machine that could work endlessly for all eternity.

It was Su Qiao An who made him feel that he was still a human being.

They are the living flesh and blood, not the machines that copy and paste the boring life every day.

In the past, he lived for the Chu Family, and for Chu Wei.

And now …

He did it for Su Qiao An.

As long as Su Qiao An gave him time, he would make up for it, even if it left a crack, it didn't matter. He would carefully protect it, and would not let it shatter or be lost again.
