Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Since you have agreed to let me stay overnight, why were you sending me to the bus stop?

“I...” Shen Qianshu started.

Don’t know.

Master, if you have anything to say, can you be more direct and say it? Be more straightforward!

She had always been smart, and she felt that this matter had to be given much consideration. As she looked at his cold side view, Shen Qianshu knew in her heart that this was definitely a very, very important matter. Was he hesitating to show her something?

His sleeve was slightly rolled up, revealing part of his wrist. His skin was quite pale as it did not see sunlight for a long time. However, it was the kind of fairness like jade. The joints on his fingers were obvious, and they were long and nice. He had a pair of very pretty hands.

“You should know that there will always be dark legends in the old castles in Paris.”

“For example?” Shen Qianshu felt uneasy as she asked.

Ye Ling took a deep breath. “In the children’s novels, it was often said that there would always be a blood-sucking devil locked away in the thousand-year-old castles. He was cold, heartless, harsh, and did not recognize his own family. Whoever went near to him would die. This is the legend of the castle. Do you still want to stay?”

“Master, I am also not a three-year-old kid. What legend of the devil? It’s all a lie,” Shen Qianshu said.

The 18-year-old little angel had some baby fat. However, her features were very delicate. She had rosy cheeks and was bright and beautiful. She was frivolous and fearless like a young girl. Since she was young, she had been rebellious. She treated whatever legend with contempt.

“What if it is real?” Ye Ling asked.

Shen Qianshu hesitated for three seconds and said calmly, “Then I won’t stay. I am only 18 years old this year and have a great future ahead. It is not necessary for me to become the devil’s dessert.”

Once these words were said, the surrounding air became explosive in a moment.

The winter suddenly attacked, and hundreds of miles turned to ice.

His chest slightly moved up and down. During this year, Ye Ling was young. During this period of time, he was also stricken with illness, making him easily angry and irritable. The thin flesh on his chest seemed like it was jumping out of the white shirt wrapping it in. After his anger had soared, the bell from the sunset was heard.

One sound after another. They sounded like death knells.

The death knell in his dead heart.

Yes, he was a lunatic. Who was willing to look at the other side of the lunatic? Who was also willing to be tied together with the lunatic for life? Who was also willing to extend a pair of hands to the lunatic?

Ye Ling, you are too naive.

He stepped on the accelerator and sent her to the bus stop. He did not say anything again and left.

It seemed as if it was a torture for him to stay for one second longer.

Shen Qianshu only saw the fiery red sports car moving away in the distance and his back view which was like a trapped beast.

“Strange. It was me who was obviously injured?” She felt puzzled as she scratched her head. “Why do I feel like he was hurt by me?”

Unreasonable!

The dream suddenly stopped.

This part of her memories had already become blurred. It was like an episode in her life which she had seldom thought of.

Now, in her dream, everything was incredibly clear.

She suddenly understood.

Back then, before the tragedy happened, Master had once hesitated. Should he let her stay at the castle and show the truest side of himself to her? He had obviously sent her to the bus stop, but he hesitated as he wanted to give each other a chance.

However, she had rejected it!

He had thought of showing his truest side to her before. He thought that after she had seen the real him, she would choose to stay. However, she did not know. Shen Qianshu felt like her heart was being cut by a knife. She seemed to see herself 17 years later, standing in front of herself as an 18-year-old and shouting at her crazily.

You promise him.

You quickly promise him.

Don’t let him go away!

But she could only stare blankly at herself as an 18-year-old limping up the bus. And Ye Ling had moved away in the distance.

They had taken two different paths.
