Chapter 122: If There Is an Afterlife[Page 1/1]
"Does my mother still hurt?" Shen Zhichen lay beside Shen Yunyou, looked at Shen Yunyou's wound with a wrinkled face, and asked. */.//*
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Shen Yunyou shook his head, seeing that Shen Zhichen was also much thinner than before, he couldn't help but feel guilty and self-blame in his heart. "Come here, let my mother hug me."
Shen Zhichen hesitated for a moment, and finally lay down on Shen Yunyou's arm. flatteringly kissed Shen Yunyou's cheek, Shen Zhichen was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth with a hint of crying, and said, "Mother, Chen'er misses you so much." β
"Didn't my mother tell you that you weren't allowed to cry?"
"Chen'er didn't cry." Shen Zhichen sniffed, raised his head and met Shen Yunyou's gaze, "Chen'er listened to her mother's words, and she hasn't cried in the past few days. β
Shen Zhichen's lies, under his red and swollen eyes, were self-defeating. Shen Yunyou saw it in his eyes, and he also felt pain in his heart.
Shen Yunyou listened to Chen'er tell her interesting stories about how he bullied Yang Boxiang in the past few days. When the door was pushed open, and she saw Ye Zixuan panting at the door of the room, looking haggard and embarrassed, Shen Yunyou bit her lower lip hard and couldn't make a sound.
Ye Zixuan stared intently at the person on the bed, for fear that if she blinked, she would become the same sleepy appearance as before. After calming his breath, Ye Zixuan walked to the bed. Listening to Shen Zhichen ostentatifically tell himself that he woke up Shen Yunyou. Ye Zixuan stretched out his hand and dragged Shen Zhichen up from Shen Yunyou's side, and said in a hoarse voice: "Son, go out." β
Shen Zhichen looked at Ye Zixuan reluctantly, thought about it, didn't say anything more, jumped out of bed, and walked out of the room step by step.
After Shen Zhichen left, Ye Zixuan sat slowly on the edge of the bed. Fingers gently slid along the bridge of Shen Yunyou's nose to the tip of his nose, and finally pressed it lightly and heavily. After Ye Zixuan saw the smile flashing in Shen Yunyou's eyes, the panic that had been buried in his heart all this time was finally able to disappear.
Bending down, thin lips lightly covering hers. Raising his head slightly, Ye Zixuan was close to Shen Yunyou, with a hint of command in his tone, and said more pleadingly: "Don't scare me anymore in the future." β
The bloodshot in Ye Zixuan's eyes made Shen Yunyou see it very clearly. She sat up with Ye Zixuan's help, then looked at Ye Zixuan's face full of stubble, and said with a smile: "I thought whose man came here, it turned out that it was mine." β
As soon as the words fell, Shen Yunyou lowered his head. Pulling Ye Zixuan's hand, he drew a circle in his palm. Shen Yunyou pretended to be relaxed and asked, "What else do you want to say to me, the benefactor who saved your life?" β
"If you want to go, remember to bring me with you next time." Ye Zixuan gently leaned his head on Shen Yunyou's shoulder, and muttered in a tone of grievance but infinite fear: "I'm afraid I can't bear this kind of thing a second time." β
The corners of Shen Yunyou's upturned mouth fell quickly, and his mood became uncontrollably heavy. I wanted to taunt Ye Zixuan, what a selfish father, but before the words came to her mouth, she heard Ye Zixuan say as if he had promised her: "No, there will be no next time, absolutely not." β
Shen Yunyou slowly raised his hand and brushed Ye Zixuan's emaciated side face. Looking at the pitiful expression that rarely appeared on his face, Shen Yunyou smiled pityingly, and then said, "Go sleep." β
"Don't." The stubborn refusal shows that he doesn't want to leave. Ye Zixuan stared at Shen Yunyou with burning eyes, no matter how Shen Yunyou persuaded him, he refused to leave her side. "I still have something to say to you, I'm not leaving."
Ye Zixuan was like this, and Shen Yunyou couldn't continue to drive him away. But although Ye Zixuan said it and wanted to say something to her, in the end, Shen Yunyou still didn't hear from him what he really wanted to say.
Shen Yunyou leaned on Ye Zixuan's side and closed his eyes gently. She was already familiar with his contradictions.
He has always been like this, and he does duplicity better than anyone else. Shen Yunyou had never expected to hear any sweet words from his mouth, but he was such a person, always with an extremely dangerous but faint warm attraction on his body, which made the people around him want to protect him desperately. Including her, she is no exception.
This time the escape from death was already a luxury from heaven for Shen Yunyou. She was grateful to have survived and returned to him and his children. Because she knew that a person like her, who had so many people's blood on his hands, did not deserve happiness. Even though she had killed so many people, she had never regretted it. Even if there were any more people standing in front of her and trying to harm her or the people around her, she would still choose to kill them.
Shen Yunyou, who had walked twice before the ghost gate, had gradually blurred the world she was once familiar with. She even began to be a little glad that she was able to come to this plane and meet such a man. She was not a good person, but she got the happiness that a good person deserves. So this hard-won everything made her suffer from gains and losses.
"Zixuan."
"Huh?"
"Situ Rui, they ...... Are they all dead? Shen Yunyou asked Ye Zixuan in a low voice about everything that happened after he fell unconscious.
"Hmm." Ye Zixuan nodded, answered Shen Yunyou's question, and then added, "There is also Situ Nan, who is also dead." β
Ye Zixuan's words made Shen Yunyou's body stunned, she thought about it, and didn't ask about Situ Nan. But in my heart, it is not easy.
Even if many things are not clearly said, Shen Yunyou has already thought of the answer, just like Situ Nan accidentally killed Meng Yuqing back then.
Although Shen Yunyou hated him, although she thought about killing him, she didn't want him to leave and atone for his sins in this way. Shen Yunyou listened to Ye Zixuan tell her what happened and what he planned to do in the future, and she suddenly felt the urge to cry.
So many damned people have died, and those who deserve revenge have also been avenged. But why, can't she be happy?
The sadness in Shen Yunyou's heart seemed to make Ye Zixuan feel it too. He slowly sat up straight, rubbed Shen Yunyou's soft hair, and soothed: "Don't think about anything, when you are better, we will go home." β
"Good. Go home. Shen Yunyou smiled forcefully, echoing Ye Zixuan's words. She had lived in this room for a while, so she knew exactly where it was.
Shen Yunyou and Ye Zixuan sat together wordlessly for a long time, until she heard Ye Zixuan whispering to herself again.
"You'er."
"Huh?" Shen Yunyou looked at Ye Zixuan suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?" β
"It's fine." Ye Zixuan stood up with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I just want to call you." β
After Ye Zixuan finished speaking, he walked out of the room and let Shen Zhichen, who had been squatting at the door, into the room. He stood outside the door, loosening his muscles, then leaned against the wall, listening to the conversation between the two men in the room, a smile on his face that he had not seen in a long time.
Bai Moyan stood in the distance, watching Ye Zixuan finally let go of himself, the way her nerves relaxed, and the heart she had been hanging on finally landed safely.
Over the years, Yezixuan's martial arts have become stronger and stronger, and his power has become more and more powerful. In their eyes, he is almost omnipotent. He was even able to change the entire country of the Kingdom of Prayer to Heaven, but only in front of Shen Yunyou, he would show a state of helplessness.
Bai Moyan thought that if he had known everything that would happen today, then before it happened, he would definitely choose to give up the battle that day without letting her suffer the slightest bit of harm before it happened.
Bai Moyan thought about it a lot, and finally chuckled out loud. Walked in front of Ye Zixuan and met Ye Zixuan's smiling gaze. Bai Moyan opened his mouth knowingly, and said with a smile: "Tonight, you should be able to sleep well, right?" β
Ye Zixuan smiled lightly, raised his head lazily, and looked at the sun in the sky. The sun shone down and sprinkled on his body, and there was an unreal sense of unreality.
Bai Moyan looked at the man in front of her who she had been with for so many years, and some emotions in her heart were out of control. I stumbled and walked so many roads, and I suffered so much in the rain of swords and swords. Her younger brother has finally reached the day when she can settle down......
Shen Zhichen tried desperately to make her happy in front of Shen Yunyou's bed, and suddenly, he remembered an important thing.
"Mother, this is for you!" Shen Zhichen took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Shen Yunyou. "Dad said, when you wake up, let Chen'er give this to you."
"The letter your father asked you to give me?" Shen Yunyou frowned slightly, he didn't have any illusions about such an unreliable thing as Ye Zixuan would write to her. Sure enough, when Shen Yunyou opened the letter and saw the handwriting and content on it, Shen Yunyou's heart hurt uncontrollably.
read those things that Situ Nan had always wanted to say to her face to face, and read them carefully and carefully. Some truths made Shen Yunyou not have the courage to face them.
The picture before the coma that day is still vivid in my mind. Shen Yunyou did not forget the look in Situ Nan's eyes when he looked at him before he died, and the relaxed expression that seemed to be finally relieved. He shouldn't have been so tired of living, and he shouldn't have walked on this road of no return. The destination he chose should not be himself.
Fitting doesn't mean we'll be together. Just because you come first doesn't mean you can go all the way to the end. God always likes to play tricks on people, like to make certain people appear when they shouldn't, and then, in some cruel way, they can never see each other again.
He owes her all of what he owes her, and he has paid her back in full. But what she owes him, she can't pay it off in this life.
If there is an afterlife......
What a ridiculous word, but the corners of Shen Yunyou's eyes were a little moist. What kind of despair does a person have to put his hope in that hopeless next life? What kind of despair must be under the need to choose to leave this world without fear?
Situ Nan's feelings for her, she couldn't respond after all. If there is really an afterlife, Shen Yunyou thought, she may also choose the man Ye Zixuan desperately.
It's not that there are no other options, and it's not that there are no delusions to live a life with other people. Like those four years in the valley, she fantasized and was confused. But in her mind, there will always be such a person who appears from time to time, shattering all her thoughts, making her have to face everything in front of her.
Her heart is too small, and the small one can only fit such a person.
Therefore, if there is an afterlife, she really hopes that Situ Nan can meet a good person, so that he can go to the end with that person without regrets. is not like her, all that is given to him is despair and despair.
