At dinner time, a strange atmosphere permeated the restaurant.
Bai Ran sat at one end of the long table, cutting the steak on the plate elegantly.
Her eyes swept over Shen An from time to time, with a hint of playfulness and vigilance.
Shen An sat at the other end of the table, feeling like a dish on the table.
He chewed the food mechanically, but his mind was running wildly.
"System, are you there?"
He called silently in his heart.
However, the system, which always appeared in time in the past, was terribly silent at this moment.
"What's wrong, dear?"
Bai Ran's voice interrupted Shen An's thoughts.
"You look worried. Do you think it's not to your taste?"
Shen An looked up and met Bai Ran's inquiring eyes.
He forced himself to smile:
"No, I'm just... thinking about our future."
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Bai Ran's eyes, but was soon replaced by vigilance:
"Oh? Tell me, what do you think?"
Shen An knew he had to be careful.
He spoke carefully:
"I was thinking, being with you is like the past."
Bai Ran's expression softened a little, but the sharpness in his eyes did not disappear:
"That's a good idea, dear."
"But you have to remember that our future is planned by me."
"I will prepare everything for you."
"You just need to be obedient, okay?"
Shen An felt a chill, but still nodded:
"Of course, I trust your judgment."
Bai Ran smiled with satisfaction and raised his glass: "Cheers to our future."
Shen An also raised his glass and clinked it with Bai Ran.
The wine slid into his throat with a hint of bitterness.
He knew that he could only continue to stay put and wait for the huge development of the plot.
And at this moment, the only way to survive.
is to continue to play the "perfect partner" that Bai Ran expected.
Until the end of the plot.
He had no choice but to continue this dangerous performance.
As dinner was coming to an end.
Shen An noticed that Bai Ran's cheeks began to turn red and her movements became uncoordinated.
Obviously.
Her tolerance for alcohol was not as strong as she showed.
"Bai Ran, are you okay?"
Shen An asked cautiously.
At the same time, he secretly thanked himself for controlling his drinking.
Bai Ran stood up shakily and almost fell.
"I... I'm fine."
She said vaguely, but her eyes had begun to blur.
Shen An quickly stood up and supported her.
In his heart, he was wondering if this was another trap.
However.
When his arms were around Bai Ran.
Bai Ran raised his head.
The sharpness and threat in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a kind of almost desperate fragility.
"Shen An..."
She whispered softly, with sobs in her voice.
"Don't... don't leave me..."
Shen An was stunned.
Bai Ran in front of him became the patient who was terrified and uneasy in the room again.
She clutched Shen An's clothes tightly, as if he was her only lifeline.
"It's okay, I'm here."
Shen An subconsciously comforted, while looking around vigilantly.
Bai Ran leaned her head on Shen An's shoulder, tears silently falling.
"You don't know... You don't know how scared I am."
She whispered, her voice full of real fear.
"I thought you left me..."
Shen An frowned, not knowing how to respond.
"Let's go back to the room first."
Finally, Shen An whispered.
He helped the staggering Bai Ran walk towards the door.
Along the way, Bai Ran snuggled up to Shen An.
From time to time, she sobbed softly.
Her usual arrogant and cold image disappeared.
Instead, she was a wounded patient who needed protection.
When they finally returned to the room.
Bai Ran hugged Shen An tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear in the next second.
"Don't go...please," she pleaded in a low voice.
