After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

Shen Yunzhou didn't know what she was afraid of, and he didn't want to think about it too deeply. At this moment, he just wanted to calm her down.

He raised his hand, patted her back gently through the thick quilt, and coaxed her in the most gentle voice, "It's okay, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Lu Nanfeng, who was in a trance, suddenly looked up at him. Her eyes were exceptionally bright, but Shen Yunzhou always felt that she was looking at another person through him.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but as long as it could calm her down, what would it matter if she treated him as someone else?

Lu Nanfeng had been looking at him, trying to identify whether this person was him.

Yes, a long time ago, there was also someone who told her not to be afraid and that he would always protect her.

Is he back?

She looked at him carefully, but in the end, the light in her eyes gradually dimmed, tinged with the sadness of the night. She lowered her eyes and said no more, but her body was still shaking violently.

It’s cold, and it seems to be getting even colder.

Why did everyone leave her alone?

The pain of losing Li Chen, coupled with the experience of being abandoned in childhood, stabbed her heart hard, again and again, it hurt so much...

Tears silently slid down from the corners of her eyes. This was the first time Shen Yunzhou saw her cry. Unlike the tear marks he saw on the quilt last time, this time, they were real tears. He felt a little sorry for the girl in front of him.

What on earth had she been through to make such a strong person like her cry so sadly?

He always felt that she must have had a hard life in the past.

He put the clothes that had slipped off on her back and comforted her softly, "It's okay, don't be afraid..."

He took a tissue from the side and wiped away her tears carefully. He then fetched the fire-heater, plugged it in, and placed it beside the bed. Then he coaxed her to lie down, covered her with a blanket, and looked at her seriously, "I'm here, I'm not going anywhere, don't worry and go to sleep, I'll be with you."

Such familiar words, but unfortunately, he is not him.

The man who protected her in the past, whom she didn't even have the chance to call brother, is now a different person from her.

This time, they were so far apart that she might have to live her entire life before she could meet him again.

The past events kept replaying in her mind, her heart ached and her body felt cold...

She turned her back, covered her chest with her hands, and curled up into a ball, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. The last time she felt this painful, Li Chen was by her side.

But this time, the person accompanying her was Shen Yunzhou.

A helpless smile appeared at the corner of her lips. She never thought that one day, she, Lu Nanfeng, would need a child to take care of her.

She didn't know when she fell asleep, but she felt her back gradually warming up, and her body didn't seem so cold anymore, and her consciousness began to become a little fuzzy.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already daybreak. She then realized that the clothes and quilt covering her were as high as a small hill.

She moved slightly and turned her head to look, and saw Shen Yunzhou lying on the edge of the bed, his head resting on one hand, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was worried about something.

But how can I have any worries when I’m asleep?

The heater next to her was still on. She took a look at it, recalling what happened last night. She also glimpsed the slightly damp ground and thought that the house was probably in disrepair and because it was on the top floor, the roof was leaking.

Her gaze fell back on Shen Yunzhou. She just lay there quietly, afraid that any movement would wake up Shen Yunzhou who was sleeping on the side of the bed.

After all, he took care of her the whole night last night, so she is a very conscientious person.

She lay on the bed for a while. When the sunlight came in, she used her hands to block the light on his face, but Shen Yunzhou still woke up.

When he looked up, he saw Lu Nanfeng using his hands to block the sun for him. He was stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses and quickly asked, "How are you? Are you feeling better? Are you still cold?"

He looked anxious, his eyes full of worry. His arm was obviously numb and painful, but he didn't care at all.

"I'm all right."

Shen Yunzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're okay."

As he was about to stand up, he fell back before he could get up. He couldn't exert any strength in his legs. There was nothing he could do. He had been sitting on the ground for too long and his blood circulation had stopped.

He gently pressed his legs with his fists, and Lu Nanfeng asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, just rub it for a while." Thinking of something, he said, "Are you hungry? I'll make you breakfast later. If you're sleepy, just sleep for a while. You didn't get enough rest last night."

Lu Nanfeng was a little surprised, "Aren't you going to ask me what happened last night?"

Shen Yunzhou suddenly stopped what he was doing and smiled at her. "You have never asked about my privacy, and I won't ask about it either. When the day comes that you are willing to talk to me, I will definitely be your most loyal listener."

He said, holding the edge of the bed and stood up, "I'll go make you breakfast."

The surprise in Lu Nanfeng's eyes had not yet disappeared. Why did she suddenly feel that Shen Yunzhou seemed different after waking up?

But what was different, she couldn't tell.

The breakfast was still the same as before, simple noodles, but this time, he added some more ingredients and it tasted much better than before.

After breakfast, Shen Yunzhou went to wash the dishes, and Lu Nanfeng called Song Ge.

Song Ge on the other side smiled and said, "Miss Lu, why did you think of calling me today?"

Lu Nanfeng got straight to the point, "How's your performance on the task I asked you to do last time?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely do everything you asked me to do beautifully! I've found a house for you, in the city center, a 300-square-meter flat with five bedrooms, fine decoration, and north-south ventilation. I just signed the contract yesterday. I was just thinking about calling you! And then you called me. Don't you think we are in sync?"

Lu Nanfeng smiled and said, "Yes, we are in sync, but I remember that I only want a three-bedroom apartment, right?"

"Then I want you to live better, right? That three-bedroom apartment is not spacious at all. A five-bedroom apartment is better. It's airy and spacious."

Lu Nanfeng thought about it and it seemed to make sense. It would be better if the house was bigger! It would also be more comfortable to live in.

She asked, "When can I move in?"

"You can do it now if you want."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yunzhou just came out of the kitchen. Lu Nanfeng looked at him and said, "Pack your things. I'll take you to move."

"Move?" Shen Yunzhou was stunned. Lu Nanfeng explained, "Your house has not been repaired for many years. There are safety hazards. I will take you to a better place."

Shen Yunzhou didn't say anything, just stood there. Lu Nanfeng suddenly felt that his attitude was a bit too tough. Just when he was about to explain, he saw him nod, "Okay."

It would be nice to move to a new house. After all, the scene last night was still engraved in his mind, her tears, her trembling body. It was because of him that she had to live in such a small and shabby rental house. She didn't have to do this.

So apart from agreeing, he couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

He couldn't be so selfish as to completely disregard her feelings. He could do anything as long as she was happy.
