Don't run away, Miss Chun, you are my destiny

Chapter 298 He is the past tense

Hearing Chun Rixi's straightforward rejection, Lu Junze actually felt a little happy in his heart. He was afraid that the man who had been engaged to her would return to her world again.

However, Murphy's Law always happens at unexpected moments.

Li Chenguang, covered in scars, came to Chun Rixi's ward on his own initiative. He seemed to have a lot to say to her.

But Chun Rixi pretended to be asleep, with her eyes tightly closed and her eyelashes fluttering slightly, but her heart was trembling all the time.

She was trapped in deep self-blame and couldn't extricate herself. It was she who let Li Chenguang go and it was she who burned down Xiao Shiyu's villa.

Everything made her feel sorry for Xiao Shiyu, the childish boy who loved her with all his heart but used the wrong method.

Li Chenguang waited in her ward for a long time, just sitting there quietly, his eyes of pity never leaving her cheek.

Finally, he spoke, his voice full of apology and concern.

"Xiao Xi, the matter is over. I heard that you are going to hold a funeral for Xiao Shiyu. I suggest you not attend."

"We are still hunting down his father, Xiao Yuanzhao. I am worried that if you attend his son's funeral, he might take the opportunity to take revenge."

Chun Rixi finally stopped pretending to sleep. She sat up, looking straight at Li Chenguang with clear and empty eyes as he walked towards her and put a pillow behind her back so that she could sit against the head of the bed.

"I owe it to Xiao Shiyu. If he wants to marry my life, come and take it!"

"I will definitely attend his funeral!"

Li Chenguang's expression was gloomy, and his deep eyes were filled with too many emotions, but he couldn't say them out loud.

"Xiao Xi, don't be afraid, my colleagues and I will protect you."

Chun Rixi smiled helplessly and said sadly.

"Are you afraid that I, as a witness, will be retaliated against? Then you should quickly arrest Xiao Yuanzhao. After all, he was also responsible for Ayu's death!"

“Chen Guang, please go, I want to rest.”

At this moment, Li Chenguang finally understood that he had completely lost her. He was the one who let down the girl he wanted to marry.

His throat was choking with sobs and he wanted to rush up to hug her, but her distant attitude stopped him.

He didn't have the courage to hug her.

Lu Junze, who was leaning against the wall at the door of the ward, heard all their conversations clearly. At this moment, he actually felt a little sympathy for Li Chenguang.

He had been in the same situation as Li Chenguang, when Chun Rixi had forgotten their past and the time she spent with Xiao Shiyu.

The pain lasted for countless days and nights, causing Lu Junze to suffer physically and mentally.

The moment Li Chenguang opened the door, he saw Lu Junze standing at the door. When the two passed each other, he patted Lu Junze on the shoulder and said seriously.

"Persuade her not to attend the funeral. Xiao Yuanzhao has not been caught yet. He has a gun."

Lu Junze took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly and spoke in a deep voice.

"I see. Are you feeling better?"

Li Chenguang forced a smile and spoke casually, pretending to be nonchalant.

"For criminal police like us, getting injured is commonplace. We're used to it."

Lu Junze watched his figure staggering and disappearing in the corridor. He nodded to the police officer who was protecting Chun Rixi, an important witness, and entered the ward.

He strode to Chun Rixi's side, without saying a word, but raised his hands domineeringly and hugged her tightly in his arms, letting her tears stain the lapels of his shirt.

Chun Rixi absorbed the warmth from Lu Junze's embrace. His strong heartbeat made her feel grateful for surviving a disaster.

On that cross-river bridge, she had already decided to die, but Xiao Shiyu gave her a chance to live.

"Xiao Xi, come back to Lu's house with me. Ai Xi misses you very much!"

"Ok!"

Seeing Ai Xi again, Chun Rixi finally smiled from the bottom of her heart. This little angel always brought her spiritual comfort.

"Mom, you haven't come to see me for a long time. I miss you so much!"

Chun Rixi hugged Aixi, kissed his cheek, and then took his hand to play with him in the garden.

Lu Junze carried a silver tray with a mountain of fruits and placed it by the swimming pool. They were all Chun Rixi and her son's favorite fruits.

He embraced Chun Rixi openly, leaned over and arched his back, kissed the corner of her lips, and then kissed her cheek.

Ai Xi giggled, he understood that it was his father expressing his love to his mother.

He carried a small bucket to the sand pit and started building sand castles, muttering to himself.

Lu Junze still held Chun Rixi's waist. They both looked at the carefree Ai Xi, but each of them had his own thoughts in his heart.

"Xiao Xi, during the time you were away, did Xiao Shiyu leave you in his villa?"

He deliberately did not use the word "imprisonment" because he was worried that this word would make her feel uncomfortable.

"Yes. I volunteered."

Lu Junze was still somewhat unwilling, so he leaned over to look at her with a smile on her face.

"Is it for Li Chenguang?"

"Haha, what can I do for him? He has been undercover for so long and is about to see the light but fails at the last moment. I just can't bear to see this result!"

These words slightly dispelled the panic in Lu Junze's heart. He inadvertently took a breath, but it was caught by Chun Rixi. It seemed that he still cared a lot.

It was two months later when the relevant procedures were completed. Chun Rixi scheduled Xiao Shiyu's funeral at the Wanmingshan Funeral Home in Hui City and purchased a piece of land for him to be buried.

Surprisingly, this cemetery is located in the same row as the last three rows of Li Chenguang’s cemetery.

What is sad is that this farewell ceremony will probably be attended by only a handful of people. After all, Xiao Yuanzhao is on the run, and anyone who shows up will be taken away for questioning.

Xiao Shiyu himself has been walking in the dark world of Hui City. Only Chun Rixi, whom he loves, is in the sunlight. Everyone else who has a relationship with him is in endless darkness like him.

In the farewell hall, only Chun Rixi, Lu Junze, Guo Zhao and a few others came to attend Xiao Shiyu's funeral ceremony.

Kasuga Xi declined everyone's offer to accompany her and walked into the waiting room first.

She stood in front of Xiao Shiyu and wanted to uncover the white cloth covering him, but after thinking it over, she gave up.

The crystal coffin could not be used as his face had been burned in the fire in the car accident.

Chun Rixi didn't know that danger was approaching behind her.

A man dressed as a worker who was cremating corpses approached quietly. He secretly reached his hand into the back of his white coat and took out the pistol that Xiao Shiyu had discarded.

"Ayu, there is something that I am also confused about. I am pregnant."

The pistol had been quietly loaded, waiting for the man to raise his hand and fire, and Chun Rixi would surely die.

But when he heard Chun Rixi say that she was pregnant, the man's hand holding the gun began to tremble.

He suddenly strode forward, grabbed the defenseless Chun Rixi's neck, and roared softly.

"You are pregnant with Xiaoyu's child? When did it happen?"
