Chapter 1237: Chapter 1264: On the Brink of Disaster 16

Perhaps she once was alone, without support, living humbly and cautiously.

She once longed for family, craved warmth, desired to live a free life.

But now she suddenly realizes that everything she has longed for cannot compare to a hug or a smile from Chu Zhan. His existence is her faith.

With just one smile from him, her world blooms in spring, and all past hardships seem insignificant.

But she understood too late, as Chu Zhan can no longer hear her heart’s voice.

Smoke is everywhere, Shi Nuan’s eyes stinging, unable to open, her voice hoarse and unheard. She still uses all her effort to speak, "How dare you leave me alone? I don’t want this. Without you, I can’t be happy."

"Please come out, we haven’t even recognized each other yet, haven’t said all there is to say, haven’t married, haven’t had children together. How can you really leave, I beg you to come out..."

Shi Nuan has already tried her best, but evidently no miracle happens. She is crying so hard she can no longer speak, her whole body stiff, sitting there.

The world seems to suddenly quiet down, with no other sounds around.

At this moment, two staggering footsteps come from the grass behind.

Shi Nuan, as if sensing something, slowly raises her head and sees the most beautiful scene of her life.

It’s Chu Zhan.

He’s alive!

He is being supported by Lu Xingshen by the shoulder. The two men limply and painfully come over from the grass behind the building, both looking at her.

Shi Nuan jumps up from the ground, runs to them, standing half a meter away, looking intensely at Chu Zhan with reddened eyes.

The man is burned black and gray, with blood stains on his face, body, and arms. It’s really a harsh sight, severely mismatched with Chu Zhan’s handsome image, but she seems never to have enough of looking, fearing this is a hallucination, afraid it will vanish if disturbed.

Lu Xingshen, being utterly ignored, quietly steps back, slightly closes his eyes, hiding the surging pain within. He is already embarrassed enough, retaining the last shred of dignity.

"What’s wrong Nuannuan, standing stunned, don’t recognize your man?" Chu Zhan opened his mouth, lips forming a smile, with his voice terribly hoarse, almost losing its original tone.

Shi Nuan’s mind roared, and her tears fell.

"Is it you, Chu Zhan."

"Touch me, feel it."

Chu Zhan reached out a hand toward Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan gently held it, feeling the familiar warmth of her man, and cried again. Chu Zhan started coughing softly, "Don’t cry, Nuannuan, I hurt my body and can’t wipe your tears. Can you wait till I recover to cry?"

"Chu Zhan, you bastard, you scared me to death."

"Nuannuan, hug me, I want to hug you."

Shi Nuan had long wanted to do this. Upon hearing him, she directly embraced Chu Zhan. They hugged so tightly, as if even the sky collapsing couldn’t separate them.

"Chu Zhan, are you hurt? Does it pain?"

Shi Nuan asked worriedly, as Chu Zhan patiently replied.

"I’m fine, can still endure it." Chu Zhan said with difficulty,

"However, as for you, Nuannuan, was everything you said earlier true? Now that I’ve come out, are you willing to marry me?"

Don’t you all feel that Second Uncle is pitiful?

Oh my, as I was writing this, my heart hurt for this deeply affectionate old man.

But thinking about how he will torment my sweet girl in the future makes me feel quite uncomfortable.
