Chapter 35: Chapter 35: From Now On, I Will Protect You!

When Shi Nuan came out, she was surprised to find that the rain had already stopped.

The lights inside the Shi Family Mansion were bright, illuminating a path leading to the door.

The light was somewhat blurred by the moisture, making it hard to see the end at a glance.

But Shi Nuan knew that at the end of that path, there was someone named Song Yansheng waiting for her.

Shi Nuan was very clear in her heart what choosing this path meant, what facing the end of this path meant for her future life.

Yet, she had no choice.

He once believed in the beauty of this world and indeed encountered beauty in this world.

But later and later, fate stripped them one by one from his side!

Faced with all this, all she could do was accept, resign herself to fate, surrender and yield to reality!

But starting from today, she wouldn’t...

In every day after today, she wouldn’t...

Her slender body moved step by step towards the doorway, with each step, feeling a slight sting in her heart.

She said in her heart:

Xiao Chuan, don’t blame me...

At least for now, don’t blame me...

Soon...

Really, very soon...

Wait for me...

Wait for me to finish what I need to do...

I... will come find you...

...

Just before reaching the car, Shi Nuan noticed that Song Yansheng was not in the car but standing in front of it, waiting for her.

This slightly shocked Shi Nuan, but only for a moment, she regained her composure.

Then she walked more resolutely towards the handsome, tall man not far away.

Before she got close, Song Yansheng suddenly stepped forward a few paces and grabbed her hand.

The gesture of palm against palm was somewhat intimate, which made Shi Nuan uncomfortable, but the warmth of the man’s hand made her reluctant to pull away.

"It’s seven-twenty already!"

The man said softly, with a hint of reproach in his tone.

Was he blaming her for being too slow?

Shi Nuan said, "I’m sorry, I..."

"Get in the car, if we head back now, dinner might just be ready!"

So, Shi Nuan fell silent, allowing the man to lead her by the hand and guide her into the car.

Chi Rui soon started the car, and the Shi Family Mansion became further and further away until it disappeared from view.

It was at this moment Shi Nuan clearly realized: this time, she truly left.

Having taken away her mother’s belongings, was there anything worth lingering for?

Perhaps, there wasn’t.

A hand gently pulled hers over, rolling up her sleeve.

She hesitated for a moment, wanting to withdraw, but the man held her hand and said, "Don’t move, let me see if your burn from a few days ago is better!"

Shi Nuan stopped moving, and sure enough, Song Yansheng began to carefully examine the burn on her arm.

It had already started to peel, the color had faded a lot, and it should heal soon.

Song Yansheng felt a bit reassured.

"In the future, don’t be so reckless, the first thing you must do at any time is to protect yourself!"

Shi Nuan didn’t want to argue or offer any explanation, she replied lightly, "I understand!"

"I don’t want a perfunctory answer!"

Shi Nuan paused for a moment, reaching out to touch her own arm, and said, "Sometimes, it’s not up to me!"

"How can it not be up to you?"

"Not everything can go as I imagine, I’m not a god!"

Upon hearing this, Song Yansheng sighed, turned his hand, and slowly interlocked his fingers with hers.

He said, "If that’s the case, from now on, I’ll protect you!"
