Marrying a powerful man: The third master is wild and untamable

Chapter 53 He really wanted to ask Zhou Cibai if he ever regretted it

Bai Yuanjing looked at her.

She was wearing a hospital gown, her slender hands pressed gently on the door, and her neat black hair was scattered around her waist. She was so young, her facial lines were firm and soft, and although she had no makeup, her skin was still very white, and her clear almond eyes were transparent. It expresses the longing for love and the expectation of marriage.

Bai Yuanjing was silent.

He didn't think that Jincheng saved her because he loved her.

He and Jincheng had known each other for many years when they were young. He knew that Jincheng seemed to be a very ruthless man, but even if Shen Xiuwan was replaced by another unrelated woman, he would choose to do that.

That man was full of pride, and he would never tolerate foreigners harming the country's old, young, women, and children in front of him.

But facing Shen Xiuwan, Bai Yuanjing chose to smile.

He couldn't bear to destroy the light in her eyes.

Shen Xiuwan rested for a day and insisted on taking care of Fu Jincheng despite Bai Yuanjing's objection.

There was an endless stream of people coming to visit, and the ward was gradually filled with all kinds of flowers and fruit baskets.

Zhou Cibai also came.

She brought a stack of newly developed photos and showed them to Fu Jincheng and Shen Xiuwan.

She smiled and said: "These are the photos we took in Yangcheng. I specially asked the photo studio to develop them as a souvenir. I haven't even had time to look at them myself. I was afraid that you would have nothing to do in the hospital, so I brought them all here to share with you. ”

Shen Xiuwan looked at it curiously. There were group photos of everyone as well as individual photos.

Zhou Cibai's photography skills are very good, and she was photographed very beautifully. In one of them, she was wearing a cheongsam and holding a coat, standing by the spring in front of the sand dunes, looking like a movie star.

There is also a photo of her and Jincheng in it.

The background of the photo is the golden sand dunes of the setting sun. She and Jincheng are standing in the yellow sand. She is looking up, and Jincheng is holding her hand and looking down at her. Because the photo was taken in black and white with backlight, the two of them cannot be seen clearly. expressions, but just from the silhouettes of the two, it seems that they are a couple looking at each other in love.

But Shen Xiuwan knew that this was not the case when the photo was taken.

At that time, Zhou Cibai wanted to take a sweet photo of her and Jincheng. He held up the camera and called Jincheng several times, telling him to get closer to her, preferably by holding her waist or holding her hand, but Jincheng He was always half a step away from her, with a straight face and a serious look on his face.

Shen Xiuwan was a little angry at Jincheng's lack of cooperation. Then there was a sandstorm, and she was blinded by the fine gravel and could not see anything. Jincheng thought she was troublesome, so he held her hand and told her not to move, but he was serious. The ground lowered her head and blew the sand out of her eyes.

Zhou Cibai captured that moment and took this photo.

Shen Xiuwan looked at the photo and couldn't help but have a sweet smile on her face.

She said softly: "Ms. Zhou, can you give me this photo?"

She didn't like the wedding photos she took with Jincheng seven years ago.

She preferred the vivid photo.

"Of course." Zhou Cibai said calmly and generously, "This photo album was originally meant to be given to you."

Shen Xiuwan flipped through the photo album again, and suddenly realized that there was no photo of Zhou Cibai and Jincheng in it.

She glanced at Zhou Cibai who was peeling an apple.

For a moment, she actually admired Zhou Cibai's distance from Jincheng.

Zhou Cibai peeled the apple, cut it into small pieces, removed the core, and put it on a plate with toothpicks. He first forked a piece and stuffed it into Shen Xiuwan's mouth, and then handed the fruit plate to Fu Jincheng.

"Is it sweet?" She asked Shen Xiuwan with her eyes bent, while picking up another apple, "This apple was brought back from the northwest. It tastes better than the ones we sell here. I'll peel one for you too."

The sweet juice of the apple overflows between the lips and teeth.

Shen Xiuwan blushed and nodded: "Thank you very much."

Zhou Cibai didn't stay here long. Shen Xiuwan sent her out of the hospital, leaving Fu Jincheng alone in the ward.

He forked a piece of apple into his mouth and drank the clear soup for two days. The appropriate sour and sweet taste of the apple seemed to awaken all the taste buds.

He suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he would often have a high fever and be ill in bed. When Zhou Cibai came to visit, he also liked to peel an apple for him.

He was not the only one, Xue Qishu, Bai Laoer and others were sick. Zhou Cibai also liked to pour hot water and peel apples for them. Although they were all of the same age, she was busy like a big sister, checking in and taking good care of them.

She enjoys taking care of others.

Fu Jincheng put the fruit plate on the bedside table and opened the photo album again.

As if to avoid suspicion, there was no photo of him and Zhou Cibai in it.

He turned to one of the pictures. This one was taken by Adjutant Fang. He was sitting in the Taoist temple drinking tea, with a mess of figures behind him, including Zhou Cibai, who was talking to Shen Xiuwan with his face turned sideways.

Shen Xiuwan's body was not photographed, and only half of her profile was captured.

His eyes moved from Shen Xiuwan to Zhou Cibai.

She wore a pearl white dress and carried a narrow-brimmed felt hat inlaid with white camellia flowers. She had an oval face with willow-leaf eyebrows and raised eyes. When she smiled, she was bright and flamboyant. A beam of light shined through the Ruyi Aquarius patterned window. On her cheeks, her whole being glowed.

Fu Jincheng looked at her for a long time.

After ten years, it seemed that only in front of the photo could he look at her face freely.

He actually wanted to ask her if she was having a good time abroad these years.

I also want to ask if she ever regretted her choice to stay in Paris.

But when the words came to his lips, they turned into silence again.

During this trip to the northwest, he could clearly detect Zhou Cibai's deliberate alienation from him, but it was this deliberateness that made him feel even more uncomfortable.

He actually knows very well that there is no way for two people who have loved each other to be normal friends again.

Because of unwillingness.

Fu Jincheng caressed Zhou Cibai's face in the photo with his fingertips, and looked at it for a long time before taking this photo alone from the album and placing it under his pillow.

……

Fu Jincheng's body recovered well.

Half a month later, he was able to walk normally.

There was a separate shower in the ward. He took a shower for the first time after recovering and refused Shen Xiuwan's plan to follow him and take care of him.

He held a change of clothes in one hand, frowned and said, "I can do it myself."

Shen Xiuwan just thought he was embarrassed and smiled softly: "Then I will be in the ward. If you need anything, just call me."

The sound of running water soon came from the bathroom.

Shen Xiuwan arranged the bedding for him and when she picked up the pillow and patted it to make it fluffy, she unexpectedly found a photo under the pillow.

She picked up the photo.

It was probably taken by Adjutant Fang, and there was no compositional technique. Jincheng was sitting in the center of the photo drinking tea, with a shaking figure behind him. She only captured half of her profile, but Zhou Cibai unexpectedly captured it very clearly.

Shen Xiuwan was stunned.

When she realized that this photo had been secretly hidden by Jincheng, her heart contracted violently, and an indescribable emotion surged into her heart. It was as if cold water had been poured into her limbs, and she was unable to move.
