  "Dead?" Xu Jiashen's voice suddenly became light.

  Shen Gusi frowned, wondering if it was his illusion, but Xu Jiashen seemed quite happy?

  "You seem very happy?"

  "No, no, unfortunately."

  Shen Gusi didn't see any regret in his expression, the joy in his eyes was about to overflow.

  "But why didn't you tell me in the beginning?" After being happy and the crisis resolved, Xu Jiashen still refused to let it go: "Why didn't you tell me directly when I asked."

  He felt that Shen Gusi was beginning to hide something from him and was on guard against him. He had never had this feeling before.

  Does that mean that Shen Gusi no longer wants to be with him?

  "No, I just think it's good for you to misunderstand that Lulu is Xiao Qi's child. It's my fault for not telling you the truth. Don't be angry."

  "I'm not angry." Xu Jiashen explained: "I want to know everything about you..."

  "That!" Without waiting for Xu Jiashen to say yes, Shen Gusi suddenly stood up: "Lulu is still in the ward. I'm really worried about her being alone. Let's go back."

  Shen Gusi is escaping.

  Maybe he was afraid, afraid that he would fall again, afraid that he would make the same mistakes again, afraid that the same things would happen again.

  The bravest and most courageous thing he had done in his life was given to Xu Jiashen. Because he was not brave enough in himself, the courage he showed once was all he had.

  "let's go."

  Shen Gusi lowered his head, his eyes only briefly lingered on Xu Jiashen's face, then he hurriedly turned away and gently urged, "Let's go."

  How could Xu Jiashen not bear to see Shen Gusi's evasion for long? He did not expose him, nor did he want to expose him. He did not want Shen Gusi to think that he was forcing him.

  What he feared most was not Shen Gusi's escape, because before that, Xu Jiashen had already prepared himself mentally and knew that it would not be that easy.

 Just take your time.

  Anyway, there is still time.

  Xu Jiashen stayed at Shen Gusi's house in a rage, thinking about how to improve their relationship, but he missed one thing.

  Shen Gusi hasn't been home for a long, long time.

  Because Lulu was sick and needed someone to accompany and take care of her at night, Shen Gusi almost moved his home to the ward. Except for working during the day, he slept in the ward at night.

  Sometimes I sleep in the same bed with Lulu, and sometimes I sleep in the bed next to her.

  Xu Jiashen had planned everything, but he had never expected this.

  So on the first night that Shen Gusi brought him home, before he had time to be happy, he saw Shen Gusi holding a stack of clothes and quilts.

  "Are you packing to go to the hospital?" Xu Jiashen leaned against the wall, watching Shen Gusi fold the clothes one by one and put them into his bag.

  Shen Gusi continued his work without even raising his head: "Well, it's a bit cold at night recently. I'm afraid I'll get cold. Bring an extra quilt so I don't have to fight with Lulu for it."
