Chapter 884: Still Alive (2)
Zuo Hancheng appeared in front of her, covered in blood. There was a fire burning behind him. Every step he took toward her seemed to have used up all his strength.
Anhao was crying. She could hear herself crying desperately. She didn’t care about anything else and just wanted to rush over and hug him, even though he was already surrounded by a sea of fire.
When she rushed into the sea of fire, everything suddenly turned into chaos. There was no fire, no Zuo Hancheng. She was locked in a terrifying, dark world. She could not hear or speak. It was very dark, and she was alone.
She could vaguely feel someone walking towards her. She turned around in a daze and saw Zuo Hancheng standing behind her. His eyes were gentle and filled with longing for her. He was talking, but she could not hear him. She could only see him calling her name from his lips.
Good, good…
..
The night was as cold as water. Anhao struggled to sit up from the bed. She knew that it was a dream. She dreamed of him again. She dreamed of Zuo Hancheng standing in the sea of fire and herself standing in the darkness and loneliness.
It was early winter, and it would take a few more days for the city to have a unified heating system. The cold in the room instantly forced back the cold sweat on her body.
Anhao hugged the blanket tightly and curled up in the corner of the bed, staring blankly at the snowflakes outside the window.
The first snow of the year in A City came quietly.
She returned to A City from Boston in May this year. It was now November.
From early summer to early winter.
He had actually been back for half a year.
However, what she had experienced in the past six months had almost consumed half of her life’s strength.
Anhao couldn’t fall asleep. Every time she dreamed of Zuo Hancheng, she couldn’t fall asleep. She got up, put on a set of thick pajamas, and walked out of the bedroom. When she opened the bedroom door, the lights in the living room were bright.
Ever since she came back to stay, the lights in the hall would always be on. It had been a few months, but the lights in the rooms of the Gilt Scenery Garden were always on. It was as if they were waiting for someone who had left home for a long time to return. When he returned, the house would not be dark.
Huang Amao had something to do tonight, so he didn’t stay to accompany her. Besides, Anhao had been mentally guiding herself for the past few months, so she would be fine even if she was alone at home.
She went to pour herself a cup of hot water and held it to keep warm. She turned around and walked back to the sofa. She picked up the computer and turned it on. When the screen was completely lit up, she opened her email as she had done every day for the past few months and continued to read the emails from the past.
Every word he typed with Mr. V’s signature seemed to be a memory she treasured. It was as if if if it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t be able to find traces of his existence.
Those words were jumping in front of her, proving that Zuo Hancheng had really appeared in her life.
Zuo Hancheng had said that he would give her another 50,000 yuan if she could solve the pa.s.sword in his office. Anhao had almost exploded at that time.
Now that she thought about it, he was looking down on her intelligence.
She had been scratching her ears and cheeks for such a long time, but she had never thought of such a simple elementary school question that was a combination of English Pinyin and numbers.
Anhao held the laptop and looked at it. She felt angry and amused at the same time.
How would she know that Mr. V was Zuo Hancheng? If she had known that they were the same person, she would have guessed it long ago. She had never thought about this at all. She had always thought that the answer to the question was some professional term, but in the end, she was still despised by him.
As she laughed, she took a sip of hot water to warm up her cold body. She stroked her stomach with one hand and gently typed on the computer keyboard with the other.
It was a little strenuous to type with one hand, but he still managed to type out a few words.
“Dear Mr. V, I dreamed of you again. I dreamed that you were smiling at me. I dreamed that I was standing in a sea of flowers in a wedding dress waiting for you. I dreamed that you were walking towards me. You still owe me a wedding and wedding photos. I’ve been thinking about that seaside outfit. Mr. V, when are you coming back…”
She turned the sea of fire into a sea of flowers, and the darkness and loneliness into a wedding dress.
She wouldn’t tell him about her unhappiness.
Even if these were really emails sent to heaven, even if he would never live to open his email and see her nagging every day, he might be able to see it from heaven.
She couldn’t let him feel that she was too weak. She couldn’t let him know that she looked like a normal person during the day, but she couldn’t sleep every night. She seemed to know why Zuo Hancheng couldn’t sleep during the three years she was away, and why he didn’t return to the Liu Jing Garden.
When it was quiet, she felt like he was in every corner of the house. He was talking to her, he was smiling at her, he was walking towards her, he was taking off his clothes, he was taking a shower, he was eating, he was reading a magazine…
He had always existed in this house. She looked at every corner and wanted to talk to him, but when she opened her mouth, she quietly withdrew her gaze. She only placed her hand on her stomach and felt the little life that had always been quietly in her stomach.
Her hand was placed on her belly. For some reason, the little thing in her belly seemed to feel her mother touching her and suddenly moved.
Anhao also looked down at her slightly bulging stomach when she felt the weak movement in her stomach. Her hand was still on it, and she continued to stroke it gently with curiosity and disbelief.
The little thing moved again after a long time, but it was very weak and not strong.
Anhao, on the other hand, put down her laptop and stood up excitedly. She walked back and forth in the room while rubbing her stomach with her hand.
She felt the fetus move! She finally felt the fetus move!
According to some pregnancy knowledge, fetal movement could be felt from the fourteenth to the eighteenth week under normal circ.u.mstances. However, there was no movement in her stomach, and the child was obedient and never disturbed her. As a result, Anhao had gone to the hospital for two prenatal checkups this month. The doctor even said that she was too nervous and that her child was very healthy.
Anhao paced back and forth in the room, laughing as she walked. She placed her hand on her stomach and lowered her head to her stomach, saying softly,””Little Calabash Brother, be good and grow up healthily in Mommy’s stomach. Let’s wait for Daddy to come back together, okay?”
He didn’t know if it was really a reaction, but the little thing in his stomach that had only recently been able to move a little moved again.
Anhao almost burst into tears. She smiled with tears in her eyes. This was the first time she smiled from the bottom of her heart since she came back from America.
