Two days later, when Gu Fenghe went out to get medicine and came back, news came: the old man who Lin Zhi had treated a few days ago couldn't survive after all, and passed away last night.
After hearing the news, Shen Shu's heart trembled, and she subconsciously grabbed Lin Zhi's wrist and said, "Let's go see if we can help."
Lin Zhi thought of the loving old couple and nodded.
The two of them came to the old man's residence together. It was sunny when they came last time, but today it started to rain lightly.
Shen Shu and Lin Zhi came to the place holding an umbrella together. Shen Shu went up and knocked on the door, but no one opened the door or answered after knocking for a long time.
A bad premonition suddenly arose in her heart, and with a sudden push, the door suddenly opened, and it turned out to be unlocked.
She closed her umbrella and entered the door. She saw the old man and the old woman lying on the bed upright together, both with their eyes closed. Shen Shu stepped forward and probed the old woman's nose, but the other woman was no longer breathing.
He actually left with the one he loved.
Shen Shu suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her heart, and the umbrella with water drops still falling in her hand suddenly fell to the ground.
Lin Zhi was afraid that she would be sad, so he stepped forward and held her in his arms. Shen Shu buried her face in his chest.
She grabbed Lin Zhi's sleeve and called him in a hoarse voice, "Lin Zhi..."
Lin Zhi said "hmm" and coaxed her softly, "Don't be afraid."
How could Shen Shu not be afraid? She grabbed Lin Zhi's sleeve and put her ear against his chest to listen to his heartbeat.
Although his heartbeat was still beating violently at this time, she couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The two were so close that Lin Zhi could directly feel her emotions.
He was trembling and cautious.
He glanced again at the pair of old men lying together with their eyes closed, and suddenly an emotion he had never experienced before began to arouse in his heart.
He thought carefully for a while and then realized.
That kind of emotion is called fear.
Although she knew that Shen Shu was very strong and would definitely not follow him when he left this world, she still couldn't help but be afraid.
…
The two called the Gu family to bury an old couple together. It had been raining continuously in the sky during the past few days. She was afraid that Lin Zhi would be cold, so she would always give him more umbrellas, so she always put them on her shoulders. There will be some rain, but it won't be uncomfortable and it will be cool.
However, on the day of the burial, the sky was clear and the sun shone on the tombstones of the two people. This was the first time that Shen Shu knew the names of the two old people.
Chen Ning and Axiu.
Lin Zhi and Shen Shu prepared to leave the place after burying the old man.
When Lin Zhi left, there were many people seeing him off. Before he got on the carriage, he saw someone kneeling down to him and kept calling "miracle doctor".
Tsk, miracle doctor.
This was the first time he heard someone call him that.
He was suddenly in a good mood and couldn't help but listen for a while longer.
On the way back to Beijing, the carriage was very bumpy. Shen Shu couldn't bear the bumping for a while and couldn't help but sleep in Lin Zhi's arms for a while. Then she got up again, held Lin Zhi in her arms and forced him to sleep.
Lin Zhi lay in Shen Shu's arms, raised his eyes to look at her chin for a while, and then finally closed his eyes under Shen Shu's commanding gaze.
However, he didn't expect that he would sleep straight into the evening. He got up from Shen Shu's arms, yawned and went to lift the curtain, and then asked, "If we walk for half an hour, will we be there soon?" Are you at the inn?"
"Yes." Chang Lan responded.
Shen Shu hugged Lin Zhi for a long time and was already tired. She was slumped in his arms and squinting. He was in a good mood and lowered his head to look at her face.
He thought that half an hour would pass quickly, but unexpectedly, he suddenly fell ill again.
This time the illness was severe and he didn't want to make Shen Shu sad. Just when he was about to stop the carriage and get out of the car, the person in his arms opened his eyes.
Shen Shu felt that Lin Zhi was ill and subconsciously held him in her arms. However, she did not expect that Lin Zhi's illness seemed to be more painful than usual. She patiently rubbed his back and said softly, "Azhi, don't be afraid. .”
Lin Zhi responded. Although he tried his best to appear not to be in so much pain, his body temperature that could not rise even in the hot summer still exposed him.
Shen Shu felt his pain and suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
She really wanted to ask the question she had always wanted to ask, but she opened her mouth and closed it again.
Don't dare to ask, don't dare to know the answer.
I'm afraid the answer I'll get is despair.
In the end, she just patted his back gently. After Lin Zhi closed his eyes, he made up his mind and said, "Is there really no way to cure it?"
But her voice seemed to be too soft. Lin Zhi didn't hear her and couldn't answer.
Outside the carriage, Chang Lan and Chang Xin drove together.
Chang Lan had an extremely good ear. She knew that Lin Zhi was suffering from illness and she also knew that Shen Shu was coaxing him.
She has been very clumsy about emotions since she was a child and cannot empathize with anyone.
However, Xu Shen Shu's feelings were too passionate. During the time she spent with her, she could really feel the other person's emotions.
She saw every hope, every disappointment, happiness, and sadness of the other party, as if she was experiencing it herself.
So when Shen Shu was sad, she couldn't help but feel depressed, and when Shen Shu asked, "Is there really no way to cure it?", she almost stood up.
Then, she saw Chang Xin's warning eyes.
She understood what Chang Xin meant. It was best for subordinates not to get involved in the master's affairs.
She is not the prince and is not qualified to make decisions for him.
So she finally continued to drive in silence, pretending that she didn't hear anything.
…
The carriage traveled for seven days and nights before returning to the capital. Only when Shen Shu returned to the capital did she know that the prince had also returned a few days ago. He had heard that Shen Shu was returning to the capital early in the morning and was waiting for her at the city gate.
The prince returned to the capital three days ago. After returning to the capital, he had another dream.
This time I didn’t dream about getting married to Shen Shu, but about after marriage.
He dreamed that after getting married, he kept abusing Shen Shu. She was obviously a princess, but she did the work of a servant every day. Not only that, he also punished her to wash clothes in the cold winter, and even took her hands off her hands. Even though she had frostbite, she was not spared.
He remembered that in the dream, the most common thing he said was, "You owe this to me! You killed Jiao Jiao, you deserve to suffer and make amends to Jiao Jiao!"
The further he continued to dream, the more anxious he felt, and the more he felt that he must have forgotten a very important memory, and this memory must be related to Shen Shu.
Because of this, his desire to get Shen Shu became stronger and stronger.
He wanted to snatch Shen Shu away from Lin Zhi, no matter what method he used.
