Chapter 123: You Are My Woman
The man’s deep and attractive voice came from above her head. There was a hint of dominance to it.
Qin Shu did not want to cry either, but her tears could not be controlled and they flowed down her cheeks. It was as if she wanted to use them to express her heartache.
However, the more she cried, the more her heart hurt.
It was because the pain he had suffered for her was something she couldn’t take on for him.
It was precisely because of this that her heart ached even more.
She turned her back to Fu Tingyu and raised her hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Fu Tingyu did not seem to like seeing her cry.
She could not continue crying because crying would not solve the problem. On the contrary, it would make him feel even worse if he saw it.
She had to find the person who hurt him and return it to that person tenfold or a hundred times over.
Her eyes, washed by tears, flashed with a determined coldness.
Fu Tingyu watched the girl suddenly turn around and secretly wipe her tears with her back to him. He felt as if he had been thrown back in time when she had turned her back to him and secretly wiped her tears as if she was afraid that others would see her crying.
The man’s eyes darkened. He stretched out his strong arms and pulled her into his embrace. His smooth chin pressed against the girl’s soft hair. He tightened his arms as if he wanted to mold her body into his and to meld the two of them into one.
Qin Shu’s body froze at first, then slowly relaxed. Her back was pressed against his chest. She could clearly feel the man’s strong heartbeat.
Nothing made her feel more secure than this.
Because in her previous life, she had seen with her own eyes how he had leaned weakly against her shoulder and felt his heartbeat slowly stop. She felt his body temperature turn from warm to cold. However, there was nothing that she could do. She could only look at the blooming flames in front of her.
It was as if the sky had collapsed. Her mind was blank and she could not think at all.
The pain in her heart was worse than death.
Those who had not experienced it firsthand would never know how that felt.
“Babe, you are my woman. All of this is nothing.”
She could hear his voice in her ears. His tone was domineering but there were a subtle tenderness and love in his voice.
Qin Shu was stunned.
Only matters that concerned her were considered major matters, and everything that concerned him, no matter what, was a trivial matter that could be ignored.
Her heart began to thrum with uncontrollable pain, and tears filled her eyes. She did not know how much self-control she had used to prevent them from flowing from her eyes.
She had said that she would not cry.
Because crying could not undo what had already happened.
She took a deep breath. There was a lump in her throat. Her heart lurched and a pang of pain hit her heart.
“Were you trying out the antidote just now? Was it effective?”
As soon as she said that, she realized how hoarse her voice was. There was also a slight tremble in it.
What she was most concerned about now was whether the antidote was effective this time.
From what she had seen last time, she could tell that he was in great pain every time he tried to use the antidote.
If the antidote did not work this time, then wouldn’t that mean that he had to continue to suffer?
“Of course it worked. No one can match Gu Yan’s medical skills.” Fu Tingyu’s voice was deep and full of confidence.
Even if there was no one he could trust, he could still trust Gu Yan.
At the very least, Gu Yan would do his best to save his life.
Qin Shu nodded hard. “Gu Yan’s medical skills are very good. He has succeeded no matter how difficult the surgery or the illness. I believe in him too. I believe that he will definitely help you get rid of the virus.”
Qin Shu said this as if she was trying to soothe her uneasy heart.
However, she still wanted to ask Gu Yan in person about this virus.
