Back in Time: I Choose to Love You

43 - Scar

Mr. Sun listened from the side and wiped his tears anxiously. "Miss! That's Young Master's Scar! Do you have the heart to... rub salt on Young Master's wound and watch Young Master hurt?"

"If he hurts, I'll hurt with him too!" Si Mi said, but she only looked straight at Fu Zhen! All of her courage seemed to have been used on Fu Zhen.

Fu Zhen looked at Si Mi. This woman was simply a femme fatale! No one had ever made such a request to him. He had been in the business world for so many years. The mask on his face was a taboo that no one dared to mention. It was also his biggest secret and pain!

He couldn't agree to Si Mi's request for the time being!

"I'll tell you about this later! You must be tired! Get some rest first!" Fu Zhen turned his head away from Si Mi. He was afraid that he would surrender in the next second under Si Mi's gentle and firm gaze.

After a long while, Si Mi nodded slightly. She lay down gently and allowed Fu Zhen to cover her. Only she herself knew that she was disappointed. It was useless to use any external physical cover for the coldness in her bones!

After half an hour, Lin Jia still came up. Fu Zhen blocked her outside the door. Even though Fu Zhen spoke very softly and moved very quietly, Si Mi, who had been pretending to sleep, was still startled awake.

"Senior, this is the soup made by my housekeeper. She stewed it for a long time before bringing it here! I heard that it has a very good effect on the healing of wounds..." Lin Jia looked at Fu Zhen and said with concern!

Fu Zhen interrupted Lin Jia's words, "No need! Thank you, take it back!"

"Senior, I didn't mean anything else. I'm just concerned about you!" Lin Jia's tone was anxious and her voice became louder.

"I know." Fu Zhen sighed. "Go back! Don't come back for the next few days!"

Si Mi knew that there might be nothing between Fu Zhen and Lin Jia, but she couldn't control her suspicion and sadness. Fu Zhen asked her if he didn't make it obvious?

She let the tears flow from the corner of her eyes. Si Mi laughed it off. Perhaps Fu Zhen had done a lot for her, but Fu Zhen's love was really hard to get!

The next day, Fu Zhen brought Si Mi home. The hospital was still crowded with people, and Si Mi's occupation and identity were special. Going home to recuperate was the better choice.

After the Fu family's family doctor looked at Si Mi's wounds, he said to Fu Zhen, "The few injuries on Miss's body are not serious! Just be careful of the ones on her neck and knees. Don't get an infection! But Young Master, you..."

The doctor looked troubled. "You shouldn't be discharged from the hospital now. You should be under observation for two more days!"

Si Mi looked at him. Fu Zhen hadn't listened to everyone's advice this morning. He insisted on going home. Very few people could change the things that he had decided on. Sometimes, Si Mi was included!

"What should I be careful of? Tell me and Auntie Sun later!" Si Mi said to the doctor.

Fu Zhen's expression was cold and he didn't say anything. Auntie Sun felt that the atmosphere between the two of them wasn't right. She turned her head to look at Mr. Sun, who shook his head and didn't say anything. Fu Zhen had been in power for too long. No one could change his decision.

At night, Fu Zhen slept in the study. Si Mi felt a sense of emptiness. She sat up and stood alone on the balcony to enjoy the breeze!

The manor was very quiet. There were actually stars tonight. Si Mi raised her head slightly and looked at the starry sky. Her neck still hurt a little. It felt like what happened yesterday was a long time ago.

"Mom! Can you hear me?" Si Mi looked at a very bright star as she muttered to herself. In the past, when she was reading, she had read such a saying, 'After our loved ones die, they don't leave us. They will turn into the stars in the sky and accompany us year-round!'

"I'm quite a failure! I can't do anything well no matter what! I'm willing to believe him, you know?"

"I like him! I have a lot of regrets about him! Why do you think God gave me this chance? I didn't make any changes." Fu Zhen heard everything Si Mi said.

"What is this fool talking about?"

Fu Zhen had just woken up from the nightmare. His body was covered in cold sweat. He leaned against the window of the study on the left side of the balcony and quietly listened to Si Mi's words.

In fact, he hadn't had that dream for a long time. He had just dozed off, but it was as if he had returned to the Inferno..
