"What are you talking about?" He finally raised his head, but his voice was so flat that it didn't have a ripple.

Shen Ruan lowered his eyes and gave a bitter smile, "what do you say?"

As soon as the words were said, Fu Jinnan took back his eyes, lowered his head again, reached out and fiddled with the cauliflower on the plate with his chopsticks, but did not make a sound and gave her any response.

Shen Ruan felt as if he had thrust a large ball of cotton into his chest. He could not breathe out. After a moment's silence, he still asked, "where have you been these two days?"

It turned out that it was not so difficult to ask this question as expected. Shen Ruan only felt that the question that had been pressing on his mind for many days was finally asked, but he felt a long sigh of relief.

Fu Jinnan closed his eyes. When he opened them again, some of his clear eyes gradually became turbid and mixed with too much emotion. He held out his hand, tightly grasped Shen Ruan's hand on the table, and said calmly, "your aunt is dead."

Aunt, died?

Shen Ruan looked straight at Fu Jinnan for a long time. All of a sudden, she grinned, and the more she laughed, the louder she said, "Jin Nan, are you kidding me? I just had a video with Shen Cong just now. When I saw him and his aunt together, they were so happy that they could die happily? "

She raised her head, drew back her hand, pressed it on her forehead, and kept denying, "no, my aunt is very healthy. How could she suddenly die?"

"Ruan Ruan, calm down." Fu Jinnan looked at her with worry on her face and licked his lips. "That night, your aunt and Shen Cong were drinking at home. They drank a little too much. They accidentally fell down the stairs, hit their heads on the railing and died on the spot."

"No, it's impossible." Shen Ruan's brain roared, and her limbs slowly stiffened at a speed visible to the naked eye. She shook her voice and kept shaking her head, "didn't you just hit the railing? How could it not be rescued? Jin Nan, you must be joking with me and lying to me, right? "

She stretched out her hands and kept touching Fu Jinnan's suit coat. She muttered to herself, "Jin Nan, where's your mobile phone? Show me your mobile phone. Today must be April Fool's day. You're lying to me, aren't you? "

Seeing that Fu Jinnan was just looking at her without saying anything, Shen Ruan finally lost her temper. She grabbed Fu Jinnan's arm tightly and yelled, "Jin Nan, you talk. Why don't you talk? Tell me, you are lying to me!"

Her gloomy eyes were instantly wet, like dew, and tears gushed out like water that had been stored for a long time.

Shen Ruan snuffled his nose and tried to keep his tears from slipping down. However, Fu Jinnan felt more distressed by the way he pretended to be OK.

If Ruan Nan's throat is choked with tears, I'll feel it on her cheek

"I don't cry." The more he said, the more tears he could not stop.

Although she has always been like a cloud that can't be grasped in the sky, she has been wandering around, and she spent less time with Shen Ruan.

However, she is still Shen Ruan's only elder in the world.

Her parents left themselves when they were young. Only this aunt made Shen Ruan feel that she was not alone in the world, but now, even her aunt has left him.

And, all of a sudden

Her mood finally broke down. Leaning on Fu Jinnan's shoulder, she cried so sad, so sad, so desperate that tears poured out of her eyes like a flood that broke the dike, and Fu Jinnan's mood also fell into a trough in an instant.

After crying for a long time, Shen Ruan's eyes were so red and swollen that her tears seemed to have dried up. She hoarsely asked, "what about my brother? How is he now? "

My aunt's leaving, I have been so sad, let alone Shen Cong.

At the thought of him, Shen Ruan only felt a sour nose, and tears flashed in her eyes. Fu Jinnan quickly reached out and poked the corners of her eyes and said, "he is still in the hospital. At that time, he rolled down the stairs in order to hold his aunt."

"What about his injury? Is it serious? "

"He's OK. He has nothing to do. He can leave the hospital after another two days' rest. However, he ascribes the death of his aunt to himself. Now he lies in the hospital bed and refuses to say a word. He just keeps looking at the ceiling with his eyes open every day."

Fu Jinnan hesitated for a moment, but slowly told the truth about Shen Cong.

Looking at Shen Cong's present appearance, Fu Jinnan doesn't want to hide Shen Ruan, because if something happens to Shen Cong, then she will become Shen Cong's present state.

Aunt Zhang stood on the edge and listened to their words clearly. Although she had never met Shen Ruan's aunt and Shen Cong, she understood the feelings and intimacy represented by Aunt Shen as soon as she heard the two words.At this time, she saw Shen Ruan Fu on Fu Jinnan's shoulder, crying like a teardrop. She went to the bathroom upstairs, took Shen Ruan's towel, twisted it in warm water, and handed it to Fu Jinnan. "It's better to help Miss Fu wipe her face with a towel. I'm afraid it will make her skin friction more severe."

"Good." Fu Jinnan just kept helping her wipe the tears on her face, but for a moment, he didn't know what kind of words should be used to comfort her.

He had not experienced the pain of bereavement, but when he looked at Shen Ruan's present appearance, he felt that his heart was just as painful.

I don't know how long she had been crying. Shen Ruan fell on his shoulder and cried until there was no sound. Fu Jinnan thought she was asleep and was about to hold her up. She suddenly made a faint voice, "Jin Nan, when did you know?"

"On the afternoon when you were asked to go out for dinner." Fu Jinnan gave a bitter smile. When Shen Ruan faced him when he came back, he knew how angry she was with her behavior.

Shen Ruan straightened up, tightly pursed his lips and took a deep breath, "why didn't you tell me at that time?"

Fu Jinnan frowned and said solemnly, "at that time, I got the news that my aunt was still in the emergency room. I was afraid that you would be worried, so I wanted to rush to see the specific situation first, and then come back to pick you up when the aunt's condition was stable. But... "

Half way through, he stopped and didn't go on.

Shen Ruan opened his arms and held him tightly, leaning on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, "Jin Nan, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

Those random speculation, those unreasonable indifference, are all her misunderstanding of him.

At this moment, Shen Ruan only felt that his mind was too narrow-minded. While she was at home, Fu Jinnan was abroad, helping her deal with what should have been her niece.

"Nothing. As I said, your business is my business. Ruan Ruan, for me, as long as you are safe." Fu Jinnan stroked her hair gently.

He had planned to stay abroad for a few more days, but he suddenly received a call from Lin Tong, saying something had happened to Shen Ruan, and he rushed back in a hurry.

Sitting beside her bed, looking at the red mark on her neck, Fu Jinnan felt a trace of regret when she woke up. If he had taken Shen Ruan to go abroad at that time, could this matter have been avoided?

The remorse in his heart has never been able to disappear with Shen Ruan's recovery. He sighed a long sigh, "Ruan Ruan, I'm still too useless to protect your integrity."

……

After crying for too long, Shen Ruan only felt uncomfortable with swollen eyes. After lying in bed for a whole day, she felt a little more comfortable.

Fu Jinnan was preparing lunch for the two in the kitchen. He threw the chopped shallots into the soup. He heard the footsteps behind him and looked back. Shen Ruan was walking slowly in his nightgown. His face became tense. He quickly put down his things, went forward to hold Shen Ruan's arm and let her sit in the chair beside him Come down, "why did you come downstairs all of a sudden? Call me if you need anything, and I'll be upstairs in a minute

"It's a little too much trouble for us to make a special phone call upstairs and downstairs." Shen Ruan's mood is much more stable than yesterday.

She took Fu Jinnan's hand and asked, "are the tickets ready? When are we going to be there? "

"It's not settled yet. Will you wait two days?" He looked at Shen Ruan, eyes full of worry, "we wait for your physical condition to stabilize again."

Shen Ruan shook his head and insisted, "I'm all right. Let's go tomorrow, OK?"

Seeing that Fu Jinnan didn't immediately respond, Shen Ruan said, "if I don't go to see Shen Cong's situation, I can't be at ease even if I stay here. Jinnan, please let me go."

"All right." Fu Jinnan also understood this truth. He had one thing in mind. How could he sit here and wait with his eyes on him?

What's more, he was really concerned about Shen Cong's situation. In the morning, the psychologist there called him and told him about Shen Cong's condition. He said that he had the tendency of depression. The situation was not very optimistic.

Once the matter was settled down, Shen Ruan only felt that the time was much faster. At the moment of boarding the plane, sitting in his position, Shen Ruan tightly held a seal in his hands and whispered, "Shen Cong, you must be strong, you will be OK."

Fu Jinnan gently covered her with a blanket, saw what she was holding and asked, "what is this?"
