He originally kept her by his side just to test things out, but after spending some time with her, it seemed that his emotions were more affected by her. She seemed to have a strange attraction. As long as she was around, she always had a way to get his attention.
Reason told him that this signal was very dangerous.
Seeing that Su Zhengxing did not respond for a long time, Lin Qiao had to explain weakly, “I…was a little scared just now.”
“What are you afraid of?” Su Zhengxing asked.
Although the looks of the two middle-aged men just now made Lin Qiao very uncomfortable, they only glanced at her when they passed by and did not do anything substantial.
She was worried that if she told the truth, Su Zhengxing would think that she was hypocritical and making a fuss, so she said: “Someone died here. Let’s leave quickly.”
Su Zhengxing didn’t move, staring at her intently, “Are you afraid of the dead?”
His tone was calm, but Lin Qiao felt strangely oppressed. She felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to avoid the topic, so she interrupted: “The car should be here soon, right?”
Lin Qiao wanted to leave, but he grabbed her arm.
For some reason, his eyes became dangerous, and the gradually approaching distance revealed threats and intimidation.
“Have I ever told you that I once slept in the same bed with a dead person? I still remember that feeling of opening my eyes and discovering that the loved one beside me was no longer warm. From beginning to end, I didn’t shed a single tear. Everyone said I was cruel and cold-blooded. They were right, because that’s just who I am.”
He paused, observing Lin Qiao’s reaction.
“So if anyone thinks he/she can influence me, he/she will definitely pay the price for his/her stupidity.”
There seemed to be a lot of emotions hidden in his dark eyes. Lin Qiao didn’t understand why he suddenly became like this. She trembled slightly and wanted to retreat.
“He is warning you.”
Su Zhengxing, in her consciousness, said in a deep voice, telling her about his long-buried childhood.
He witnessed the death of all his relatives, including his father, mother, and grandmother, who depended on him for survival.
Cold-bloodedness is his armor, and cruelty is his sword. In the face of survival, weakness is fatal.
Lin Qiao never imagined that the seemingly indestructible Su Zhengxing would have such a broken childhood.
He was the sharpest knife in Baitian, and he cut off the most difficult and stubborn diseases. He seemed to be born so strong.
But she forgot that he was also a human being. Humans are vulnerable. No matter how deeply they are hidden, this vulnerability will unconsciously emerge at a certain moment.
Does he need comfort from others occasionally?
Thinking of this, Lin Qiao felt as if her heart was being grabbed. She mustered up the courage to go forward and hug him, wrapping her arms tightly around his body.
Before Su Zhengxing finished speaking, he felt a warm power on his body.
The ice and snow melted at this moment, and the seeds sprouted at this moment, like a drop of water falling from the sky, bringing about an entire mountain torrent.
Su Zhengxing stood frozen in disbelief.
“You must have been very sad at that time.” Lin Qiao stroked his back and said softly.
Su Zhengxing was speechless and stunned for a long time, almost drowning in the faint coconut fragrance.
He always knew that the most terrible thing in the world was the human heart, but he didn’t expect it to be this kind of human heart.
It turns out that people’s hearts really beat because of others.
At the same time, the other him who came to this world accidentally felt his real self here for the first time, feeling his real breathing, heartbeat, and even…throbbing.
