Chapter 104: Dare Not Touch

he would tirelessly prepare dinner for them. 。In the evening, after the children had gone to sleep, she washed the dirty clothes by hand, one by one, and hung them up to dry. 。Very professional and p...He stood there for an unknown amount of time. Under the cover of night, his car's hazard lights blinked, and he remained beside it, staring at her. It seemed like he had misunderstood her relationship with Zhou Ming, his expression was dark and menacing. 。Her smile froze on her face, separated by a road, looking at each other. 。Remembering our last meeting, also in the evening, he said: "I want fairness. I'm not choosing right now, it doesn't matter, but Zhou Ming isn't suitable for you either." 。At this point, his face was dark and unreadable. The green light at the intersection came on, and he strode towards her. 。She instinctively took a few steps back, putting some distance between them, and watched him with caution. 。It's been a while, and I just feel like he's so much taller now So imposing, like he could easily crush her with one finger. 。She stood at the bustling entrance of the apartment complex, watching people passing by. Every now and then, someone would glance her way. Were they all just here to watch the show

Before Zhu Yu'an could speak, she lowered her head, hugged her bag, and ran towards the apartments. 。

"Shu Tinglan" 。"Zhu Yu'an called out her name, did she have to be so afraid of him She ran away as soon as she saw him." 。Shū Tīnglán had already run into the residential complex. When he called her name, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking around in a daze, not knowing which way to go. It seemed like she had taken a wrong turn. The greening in the complex was excellent, with all kinds of trees planted everywhere. Now that it was early summer, the branches were lush and leafy, and under the streetlights' reflection, they cast dark, surging shadows on the ground, enveloping her. 。There was no one around, the scene was very familiar, like a dream she had made, she was enveloped by endless darkness, unable to find a way out. 。Behind her, two hands suddenly grabbed her hand. She screamed and jerked them away. 。"Tinglan, it's me" 。Hearing the familiar voice, she came to her senses, as if waking from a dream. 。Turning to see Zhu Yu'an's worried expression, she gave a weak smile. ```html

“抱歉”``` 。I'm very resistant to this side of myself, like I've gone mentally insane. 。"What just happened" Zhuo YUAN also felt that she was acting strange just now. He had just returned from abroad and rushed over directly from the airport. 。Although it's been a while, he wouldn't inspire fear, would he Yes, the instant she looked at him just now, there was fear, like he was going to harm her. 。It's fine, I was just thinking about something else and got lost in thought. 。She said, resuming her usual composure. 。Actually, she knew something was wrong. She couldn't sleep at all night after night. When she was alone, her mind would race with thoughts. 。She later saw a psychiatrist, who after communicating with her in detail, preliminarily judged that she might have paranoid delusions. 。She was shocked, how could that be

It would be better to say she had depression than paranoid delusions, she didn't believe it. 。

"Do you often feel like someone is following you" the doctor asked 。Occasionally there are 。"Do you feel like there's someone hiding in the house"

She was silent. She knew these were just her hallucinations, not real, but fear still lingered. 。Later, with work getting too busy, she stopped seeing the psychologist and believed she could overcome the illusion. 。After taking off my makeup at night, staring at the gaunt and pale face in the mirror, I found it terrifying. 。The mirrors in her house were like magic mirrors, exposing her true self. In the reflection, she looked like a ghost, something she found repulsive to even look at. 。Of course, she wouldn't show it as long as there were any outsiders around. 。Just like right now, standing before Zhuo Yu'an, she is still herself. 。"Need something" she asked. 。Zhuo Yu'an shook his head: "Come and see, are you sick"Shu Tinglan also shook his head: "No" 。I don't know why, I feel a little reluctant to turn around and leave. I don't want to go home and face the empty house. I'd rather just stand here on the side of the road. 。Zhuo Yu'an seemed to have guessed her mind: "I'll accompany you home." 。。When they arrived at her house and pushed the door open, Zhuo Yunan was stunned. How could this beAt a glance, her house was empty. Even the sofa, coffee table, TV cabinet, bookcase in the living room, and the dining table and chairs in the dining room were all gone. 。Not to mention the paintings or decorations hanging on the walls, none of them 。There's no furniture, it looks like a newly renovated apartment that hasn't been moved into yet. 。

"Where's your furniture" A chill ran down his spine, intensified by the sight of Shu Tinglan, who upon returning home, had first turned on every single light, big and small, barefoot. The chill deepened. 。Just now, outside the light was dim, I just felt she had lost weight. Standing under the lights now, I see her face is pale and even the makeup can't hide it. 。"What about the furniture" he asked again. 。It's no use keeping it, I'll sell it as second-hand furniture. 。She answered truthfully. 。It's just that it feels obstructive. With furniture, there are blind spots she can't see, and it makes me feel unsafe. It's better this way, open and spacious, so I can see everything at a glance. 。Two people stood in the empty living room, talking strangely. 。"I'm fine, you can go now." 。She turned them away. 。"When did you sell the furniture" he asked her seriously, trying to find some clues in her behavior. 。Last month 。"I'm just asking again, I don't know what else to ask. It just feels off, but besides being a little thinner, she doesn't seem to have any other abnormalities right now." 。"Does Lin Zhiyao know either"

"She's been very busy lately, your newly established business department is recruiting in bulk, and we haven't seen each other in a long time." 。"The one I just sent you back was Zhou Ming, right"

His questions came one after another, Shu Tinglan got annoyed.

:"Are you not leaving yet"

Zhuo Yu'an just felt that he couldn't let her stay alone like this. 。Come back to the hotel and stay with me. 。Shutinglan thought this person was probably crazy After so long apart, he suddenly came back and wanted to dictate her life. What right did he have to tell her what to do 。Zuo Yu'an was rarely angry in front of her, but his voice was stern. "Look at yourself now You're neither human nor ghost. If you really want to be someone, take care of yourself." 。Stop pretending in front of me, and don't try to put on a brave face. I see right through you. 。He could tell that something was wrong with her. 。Isn't she human Isn't she a ghost

This hits Shu Tinglan's sore spot. She's not human or ghost right now, is she During the day, she acts normal in front of others, but when night falls and she returns home, she behaves like a lunatic. She wanders around the house, checking everywhere, even suspecting that there might be someone hiding in the fridge or cupboards. 。I can't sleep. As soon as I close my eyes, I feel like people are laughing and crying all around me. It goes on until dawn. 。

It's none of your business 。“Though she was scared, she wouldn't go live in a hotel with him, not even if it meant facing her fears at home.” 。Okay, I'll stay with you. 。< >There is no other choice but to compromise.< > 。

Shu Tinglan didn't refuse this time. Having him by her side at least gave her a sense of security. 。Her house doesn't even have a sofa now, so she has to sleep on her bed. 。Shutinglan made three rules first:

"Don't touch me" 。"Don't worry, you're so thin, you'd break in half if I touched you." 。"The offense is slight, but the insult is profound." 。Shu Tinglan didn't know whether to be angry or grateful, lying angrily on the side of the bed. 。fice is right next to Lan Xiao Shan's office. 。From her observations over the past few days, Lan Xiaoshan wasn't at the law firm working. Unless there were special circumstances, he usually came in ar...
