After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

The little kid blinked his eyes and looked at Lin Qingran curiously, "Sister, are you Brother Si Heng's cousin?"

When she suddenly met the innocent gaze of the child, Lin Qingran felt a subtle sense of guilt in her heart.

She blushed, smoothed her hair, pursed her lips and said, "Yes, I am."

But I didn’t dare look into the child’s eyes.

The kid was disappointed, his face fell, "Okay."

Then the next second, the child suddenly turned his head and looked towards the gate. His eyes lit up instantly and he called out in a baby voice, "Brother Si Heng!"

Lu Siheng stood there at some point.

One on each side, holding two children.

He was wearing a windbreaker and had a tall and slender figure. The two children, less than one meter tall, were hanging on his sides. The height difference was inexplicably cute.

One of the kids broke free from Lu Siheng’s hand, and ran to the girl named Jiajia holding a box of crayons, “Brother Siheng bought me some beautiful crayons!”

So a group of kids gathered around and said, "Let me see it!"

"I want one."

"Xiao Guo, what color do you want?"

"Blue!"

“I want one too!”

"..."

The children here are kind and sincere. A box of crayons was quickly used up. They squatted on the ground and drew on paper with crayons, having a lot of fun.

Lu Siheng stood under the setting sun, the afterglow of the sunset cast a layer of golden light on the strands of hair on his forehead. He was smiling with gentle eyes.

Lin Qingran looked a little dazed.

Lu Siheng walked towards her and asked softly, "Why are you here?"

Lin Qingran pointed at the film and television city across the street and said, "Some artists from the company were filming inside. I was walking around and stumbled into this place by accident."

She added: "I didn't expect to see you here."

Lu Siheng explained, "I grew up here when I was a child."

Lin Qingran was stunned for a moment, then a flash of surprise flashed across her eyes, "Ah? So this is the orphanage where you lived as a child?"

"Yeah." Lu Siheng replied calmly, "I've lived here for sixteen years. Today I happened to be free, so I came to see the children here."

"Do you come here often?" Lin Qingran asked.

"I come when I have time. It's convenient after I return to China. I come three or four times a month."

"What are you holding in your hand?" Lu Siheng's sharp eyes caught the cowhide bag in Lin Qingran's hand.

Lin Qingran hid the things behind her guiltily, "It's nothing, just some company documents."

She didn't want Lu Siheng to know that she brought his childhood photo album home to look at, lest Lu Siheng become self-indulgent and think that she had some feelings for him.

Lu Siheng: “…”

He thought for a moment and asked, "When do you plan to return to the capital?"

"I'll be back today."

"Did you drive here yourself?"

"There is a driver." Lin Qingran said.

Lu Siheng realized that he didn't seem to have any position to invite Lin Qingran to go home with him in his car later. He frowned and only said "um" softly, "I'm going back today too."

The air fell silent...

He glanced at the dean who was educating the children not far away and said, "Before I leave, I have something to say to the dean."

"Okay, then I'll go first?"

"Well, see you back in the capital."

Lu Siheng raised his foot and walked towards the dean, but Lin Qingran called him again, "Lu Siheng."

He turned sideways and looked back, "What's wrong?"

Lin Qingran looked at him. In the reflection of the setting sun, her eyes were exceptionally bright, as if they contained a lake of water.

She asked, "Did we meet when we were kids?"

-

"The patient is no longer in danger of death. The cut was not deep and did not hit a vital part."

"After the patient wakes up, notify the doctor first."

Gu Yichen frowned as he looked at Xia Shu, who was pushed out of the emergency room and was still unconscious due to excessive blood loss.

"understood."

He followed the doctor to push Xia Shu into the ward, then sat down beside her and looked at her quietly.

Her face was so pale that it made people feel both distressed and guilty.

Gu Yichen just waited quietly.

Six hours later, Xia Shu woke up.

"Doctor!" Seeing this, Gu Yichen hurried out to call the doctor, "My girlfriend has woken up!"

When he led the doctor in hurriedly, Xia Shu was looking around with her eyes open in confusion.

Her stomach was wrapped in thick gauze, her body was connected to tubes, and she had an IV in her arm.

Seeing Gu Yichen coming in, her eyes were red and she called out in a hoarse voice: "Achen..."

Gu Yichen hurried over and held her hand, "I'm here, don't be afraid, I'm here."

The voice was gentle but bitter, and his eyes were full of heartache.

The doctor walked over and asked Xia Shu some questions, such as whether she felt any discomfort from the wound or if she felt dizzy, and the feedback she got was that there was no problem.

The doctor gave a few more reminders before leaving.

"Does it hurt?" he asked.

Xia Shu's tears welled up in her eyes, but she finally held them back and shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."

Gu Yichen looked at her and felt as if something had stabbed his heart.

He complained, "Why are you so stupid? How could it be your turn to block the knife for me?"

"Achen..." Xia Shu looked at him, "I didn't think much about it at the time, I just... did it, but I didn't expect it to hurt so much."

Gu Yichen stroked her cheek and said, "It's my fault that I didn't protect you well."

"Achen, I love you. Even if I have to exchange my life for yours, I will be willing to do so."

Gu Yichen listened to her words and paused slightly.

It turns out that Xia Shu really likes him that much.

Love him so much that I can give up my life for him.

He never thought that this kind of feeling that transcends life and death would appear in him.

He couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart, because he knew very well that he could not bear Xia Shu's sincere feelings.

She had always wanted him to marry her, but he hesitated several times because of Lin Qingran, and even doubted her kindness, causing the marriage to be postponed again and again.

He underestimated Xia Shu's sincerity towards him.

It is hard to tell true love in this world, not to mention that he is the high-ranking heir of the Gu family. Countless women want to get into his bed and are willing to do anything to do so. It is difficult for him to find true and pure love.

Now he's found it.

Xia Shu is the only pure thing in this world for him.

Then marry her.

Gu Yichen thought, since he was going to get married anyway, he couldn't seem to find a suitable candidate except Xia Shu. Besides, this was the second time Xia Shu had saved his life despite the danger, so he might as well consider it as a way of giving back to her, and it was time to give her a home.

Gu Yichen reached out and lifted up the strands of hair by Xia Shu's ears, then leaned closer and kissed her forehead.

"Let's get married, Shushu."

"I will marry you when you are discharged from the hospital."

"OK?"
