He is too well-behaved

Chapter 96. How can he still have the right to have a wish?

Xiao Qi's words were like a sharp sword piercing Shen Gusi's heart, and he forgot how to answer for a moment.

　　"I'm not shaken." After a moment, Shen Gusi said slowly.

　　He didn't dare to believe it anymore, nor did he have the courage to believe it. The pain he had suffered still remained every time he looked at it.

　　"I hope so." Xiao Qi's words clearly sounded unconvincing.

　　It's not his fault for not believing it. Shen Gusi himself doesn't have much confidence. Xu Jiashen remains calm, but he can always break down his door easily.

　　If what he experienced had not been so painful, Shen Gu thought, perhaps he would have turned back long ago.

　　He relied entirely on his tragic memories to stay awake and prevent himself from falling into that damn heartbeat again.

　　"The wedding is still necessary." Xiao Qi said, "After all, we have to do the whole thing so that people won't get suspicious. Don't worry, I won't pester you then."

　　Shen Gusi felt a little embarrassed by what he said, but of course he didn't think about it that way. He knew that Xiao Qi had always been very sensible.

　　"That's not what I meant..."

　　"Okay, Gusi." Xiao Qi interrupted, "I still have work to do, so I'll hang up first. I'll talk about other things when I come back in the evening."

　　"Okay, bye."

　　"Bye-Bye."

　　After hanging up the phone, Shen Gusi heard a sound coming from outside the window.

　　He got out of bed and opened the curtains. It turned out that it was raining outside.

　　Raindrops as big as beans hit the windows like falling meteors. The sky in the distance had darkened and dark clouds were spreading at the edges. The sky could no longer see its original color, and depression and silence had turned it into a dark gray.

　　Shen Gusi's face was reflected in the window.

　　It's raining.

　　"Swish" Shen Gusi pulled the curtains.

　　He returned to bed, listened to the sound of heavy rain outside, closed his eyes in a daze, and fell asleep.

　　I don't know how much time had passed, time always seemed to pass especially quickly in dreams, Shen Gusi was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

　　At first he thought he was dreaming, and when he opened his hazy eyes, the whole room was pitch black.

　　The knocking on the door hasn't stopped.

　　His still dizzy brain made him feel confused. After sitting for a while, Shen Gusi got up from the bed and turned on the bedroom light.

　　The light was dazzling, Shen Gusi rubbed his eyes, and opened the door barefoot.

　　He thought it was Xiao Qi, who might ask him to go downstairs for dinner. Although he didn't know what time it was, it was already completely dark. There was no light at all in the room without turning on the lights, so it should be night.

　　But Shen Gusi never expected that it was Xu Jiashen standing at the door.

　　Shen Gusi was stunned for a moment, then his chaotic mind suddenly became clear. He looked at him and asked, "Is there... anything?"

　　"I can't sleep." Xu Jiashen said, "I want to talk to you."

　　He lay on the bed, and as soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was full of things about Shen Gusi. When he thought about him marrying Xiao Qi, he couldn't fall asleep peacefully.
