Shen Nian waited in the courtyard of the hospital. When the sunlight moved from the south to the north, the shadow that had enveloped her body slowly turned into scorching sunlight.
Tan Yubai's mood was not much better than Shen Nian's. In the end, he still came to find Shen Nian.
Tan Yubai pushed Shen Nian into the hospital building, walked into the elevator, and slowly walked all the way to the ward quietly.
Just as he was about to get up, he was suddenly grabbed by the neck. Although he was not very strong, Tan Yubai was still hesitating when he tried to struggle free.
With the injuries on Shen Nian's body, it was inevitable that his actions would not harm her.
"Don't do that." Tan Yubai said coldly: "Why are you doing this?"
Shen Nian slightly raised her head, and touched her ear to the side of Tan Yubai's face.
"You can easily escape from me." What Shen Nian said seemed to be the situation right now, and it seemed as if the two of them had an unclear relationship. Tan Yubai could leave anytime, but the matter of his conscience made it impossible for him to do such a thing.
Shen Nian continued, "But if you really choose to leave, then whether I live or die in the future, will have nothing to do with you."
Shen Nian had grasped Tan Yubai's weak spot very well. She knew that what he cared about the most was her life and death. If Shen Nian was really born lightly, Tan Yubai would never forgive himself in his entire life.
So when Tan Yubai heard this, he hesitated.
In the end, he still chose to give up struggling, and was carried by Shen Nian, without moving at all.
Shen Nian had waited for his answer, his unmoving, stiff body was the answer she wanted the most. She laughed softly in his ear and finally bit the man's earlobe and sucked between her lips.
Tan Yubai was finally unable to endure anymore. He straightened his body, his eyes filled with disgust.
She wiped her wet earlobes and frowned as she stared at Shen Nian.
"Enough is enough."
Shen Nian laughed, with a sense of pride.
"Tan Yubai, you'll never be able to leave me."
Tan Yubai did not say a word, but his brows became colder and colder, and colder and colder.
"From the moment the doctors declared that I was out of danger, Tan Yubai, you should have known that you would never be able to escape this huge burden of mine."
If it was said that Tan Yubai was angry and disappointed with Shen Nian before, then at this moment, when he heard her talking more and more, and was also growing more and more extreme in her emotions, Tan Yubai suddenly felt a little pitiful towards Shen Nian. This disaster had not only taken away the latter half of her health, but also her determination and confidence as a female soldier.
Destroying a person's body was not scary. The most terrifying thing was breaking a person's soul.
The thing that Tan Yubai was most worried about still happened.
Shen Nian was very suspicious. Ever since she woke up in the hospital, she had been observing Tan Yubai's emotions at all times, trying to guess his thoughts. Now, the obvious sympathy in Tan Yubai's eyes was stabbing at Shen Nian's heart. She found it harder to control herself, and she found it even harder to control herself.
"Do you think you should have let me die? If I die, I'm done for. So you can live happily with your dreams for the rest of your life? Heh, what a pity. "
Shen Nian's words made her unable to refrain from sighing deeply.
She always made him speechless.
"Rest." Tan Yubai said, his eyes was filled with fatigue: "Sleep well." He leaned over and tucked her in.
Just as Tan Yubai was about to leave the room, he heard the last words that Shen Nian had said to him from behind.
"Don't forget what I said."
She was his burden, and the biggest obstacle between him and Yu Meng.
On the other side of the bed, Yu Meng was sitting beside the bed, looking dejected and speechless.
Shang Hui's leg was tied up with bandages and hung in mid air, because the consequence this time was that the wound on Shang Hui's leg was even deeper and he was bleeding profusely again. In order to prevent him from tearing the wound from his reckless movements again, the doctor had to hang his leg in the air in order to control his movements.
Shang Hui tilted his head, seeing the fruit basket on the bed, he turned to Yu Meng and said, "Peel an apple for me."
Yu Meng was stunned. She raised her head and mumbled, "Ah!"
Shang Hui directly reached for the apple on the table and threw it at Yu Meng's head.
"You've gone silly."
Yu Meng held onto the apple and looked at Shang Hui, "I don't want to eat apples."
Shang Hui rolled his eyes at her.
"I'll eat."
"Oh." Yu Meng held out the apple to Shang Hui. "Then this is for you."
"How am I supposed to eat it?" Shang Hui was on the verge of erupting with rage, "Yu Meng, can you clear your mind a little?!"
"I'm awake." After a while, Yu Meng slowly said, "I … I don't have the strength to think." She was a little tired.
"Then don't let your imagination run wild." Shang Hui looked at Yu Meng and saw her tired and distracted expression. The anger in Shang Hui's stomach lessened a little, and he finally sighed helplessly. "How can there be someone as stubborn as you? Those who make you tired will give up, and those who make you unhappy will forget, didn't people live to enjoy life, and no matter how happy they are at the moment, why talk so much about the future, who knows when Earth will fall, and humanity will have no future. "
Yu Meng listened quietly, her head lowered as she peeled the apples.
"Here you go." Yu Meng cut the apples into small pieces and placed them on a plate. She tied them with a toothpick and handed them over to Shang Hui.
Shang Hui ate the apple with satisfaction.
Yu Meng stood up and turned to leave.
"Where are you going?"
Yu Meng stopped in her tracks, thinking that Shang Hui was worrying about her, she replied without turning her head, "I won't do anything stupid, don't worry."
However, she didn't expect Shang Hui to only chuckle in disdain, "You're thinking too much, I'm not worried about you. I just feel that you've caused me so much trouble, and now you're leaving in such a irresponsible manner.
At the very least, she understood that no matter what happened, she couldn't follow Shang Hui's thoughts. He was so despicable, but if she wasn't careful, she would fall into his trap.
She did not express the apology in her heart, but instead said coldly, "I already warned you, do not bother me anymore."
"You are truly heartless." Shang Hui laughed disdainfully: "Do you really think that I, Shang Hui, can be so easily bullied?"
Yu Meng's heart sank as she hurriedly turned around to look.
"What do you mean?"
"I have yet to settle the grudge with Tan Yubai." Shang Hui laughed coldly: "Pure-hearted ah, I had originally planned to let him go on account of you, but he risked his life to seek death, there's nothing I can do about it."
Yu Meng panicked a little as she asked in an anxious tone, "What are you trying to do?!"
"Well, I haven't decided yet." Shang Hui's words were filled with chilliness and contempt.
Yu Meng's heart was very uncomfortable. She wasn't afraid of Shang Hui's burden, what made her even more uncomfortable was the fact that Shang Hui looked down on both her and Tan Yubai.
It was as if he thought that everything he knew was enough to threaten Yu Meng and Tan Yubai and did whatever he wanted.
definitely did not know what she and Tan Yubai had experienced before, and how difficult it would be to defeat them.
Previously, Yu Meng gave in because she did not want to create too much trouble for Tan Yubai. But now, just by giving in like this, Shang Hui became even more arrogant and lawless.
In this way, Yu Meng seemed to not want to continue enduring and swallow her anger, causing Shang Hui to be so conceited.
She stood at the door of the ward and turned around to look at the man on the bed. Her pupils slowly contracted as her eyes became sharp.
"Shang Hui." Yu Meng slowly said, "You're too arrogant."
Shang Hui didn't think that Yu Meng would have such a reaction. He had thought that his threats would anger her, make her afraid, make her obediently listen to him due to nervousness.
When he came back to himself, he heard her continue.
"It's up to you if you want to do what you want."
"If you think that the thing you have can defeat Tan Yubai, you are wrong." Yu Meng coldly told Shang Hui, "I was afraid that you would cause trouble for him in the past, but now that you are so reckless, you should just try to fight Tan Yubai."
Yu Meng and Tan Yubai had been together for so many years that she had never met anyone who hated Tan Yubai and never suffered on his body before.
She believed that Shang Hui was just one of many people.
When Yu Meng left and closed the door to the ward, she saw the face of the man in the ward. His eyes were filled with haze, as if no one had ever dared to speak to him like this before.
This woman, Yu Meng, had broken his limits many times, many times.
Since that was the case … Then let me show you that the man you have loved for so many years is nothing special.
Unknowingly, it was already evening. Yu Meng looked at the afterglow of the setting sun as she walked out of the hospital. She had no idea where she was going.
Walking past the huge iron gate in front of the hospital, Yu Meng looked up and saw Tan Yubai standing not far away, his gaze also landed on his direction.
Yu Meng pretended not to see it, she walked around Tan Yubai's direction with her head lowered, and headed in the other direction.
Tan Yubai caught up with Yu Meng and stood beside her.
"Let's have dinner together."
Yu Meng glanced at Tan Yubai. His eyes were downcast, those pitch black eyes with dense eyelashes were like a deep pool as they suddenly grabbed onto her.
Yu Meng hesitated for a few seconds before nodding her head.
Tan Yubai couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief upon hearing Yu Meng's promise. However... Bitterness was still seeping from the corner of her mouth.
"What do you want to eat?" Tan Yubai said as he held Yu Meng's hand.
The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, trying to force each other to stay out of the way. The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Whatever." Yu Meng replied half-heartedly. This half-hearted response was mostly due to her fatigue.
"Let's go home and eat." Tan Yubai waved to a taxi and opened the door to let Yu Meng in first: "It's been awhile, let's make dinner together."
Yu Meng got into the car, and followed Tan Yubai into the car. He leaned very close to her, and the inside of the car was small, the man's warm breath was just inches away from her.
"Dihao Community." Tan Yubai told them the location of the destination and the car slowly sped up.
Yu Meng had been looking out the window, purposely not looking in Tan Yubai's direction. He didn't seem to force her, he understood the awkwardness in her, and he himself didn't.
However, Tan Yubai had no choice but to endure all of this awkwardness, swallowing all traces of jealousy that was about to spill out when he saw Yu Meng and the other men. He had to try to understand her as much as possible, just like how she had been trying her best to understand him.
As of today, he has only experienced a small part of what you've been through.
