Objectively speaking, Yu Yikui is a very strong person.

She is a child who lived in a family with very serious domestic violence since she was a child.

If she was not strong enough, she might have gone crazy long ago, or become like most girls who are not loved by the patriarchal family, marrying off for a bride price for her scumbag father to use money to drink.

She is strong enough, calm enough, and smart enough.At the age of 16, she handed over the evidence she collected that her scumbag father made a living by running a casino to the police, successfully sent her scumbag father to prison, and took her family savings to go to the police station. University.

By the time her father came out of prison and was about to settle accounts with her, she was already an influential detective, and took advantage of the opportunity to uncover the incident of his mother's domestic violence and death, and a violent blow brought him back to the trial seat .

However, a person is always weak in childhood, and the shadow left in childhood has a great possibility to affect a person's life.

Yu Yikui's claustrophobia has affected her for many years.

Because of this, she never chooses to take the elevator, and never goes to any secret room to escape.

But today this... is not something she can avoid.

The opening on the top of the cave is very small, so the sunlight can't penetrate much, the inside is dark, surrounded by exactly the same stone walls, it's terribly cramped, and immediately triggered Yu Yikui's fear point.

This fear is not just psychological, but a strong physical reaction.

Her whole body was stiff, her breathing was difficult, her hands and feet were cold, and even a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. When Zhan Zhao asked her, she was already speechless.

Yu Yikui was stiff all over, stuck in place, unable to move her feet, Zhan Zhao was shocked for a moment, and immediately called out, "Miss Yu? Miss Yu?"

From the darkness, only Yu Yikui's trembling breathing was heard, his eyes gradually adapted to the bottomless darkness, and he saw her face in the darkness...

She looked bad, her face was pale, she seemed to be trying to calm herself down, but her whole body was in panic.

Zhan Zhao only saw her expression like this once, and that was the time when she was locked in a coffin while investigating the Dong'an Hou Mansion.

Seeing Yu Yikui like this, he immediately became anxious, without thinking about anything, went up and clasped her shoulders with both hands, and said eagerly: "Miss Yu? What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

She was still standing there, unable to even say a word.

Zhan Zhao didn't understand what she was afraid of, but his heart was clenched tightly. He let out a foul breath, and tried to comfort him: "Miss Yu, it's okay, let's sit and rest for a while?"

She still didn't speak, her whole body was as stiff and cold as if she was a dead person.

Zhan Zhao only hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.

He didn't know how to comfort a person who was in fear. He subconsciously remembered that when he was chased away by a dog when he was a child, he burst into tears. His mother held him in her arms and patted him on the back. to comfort.

He carefully hugged Yu Yikui into his arms, stretched out his hand that was not entangled with her, recalling the appearance of his mother in his memory, he gently patted Yu Yikui on the back, trying to make her relax a little.

There was a faint fragrance on the man's body.The smell is not strong, so it can only be smelled at a very close distance.

This smell seems to have a little fragrance of bamboo, which is warmed by his body temperature and gently wraps the yukwai.

He held Yu Yikui in his arms, patted her on the back, and said softly: "Miss Yu, it's okay, it's okay, Zhan is here."

Yu Yikui suddenly trembled.

She has almost never enjoyed this kind of tenderness. Zhan Zhao is...too gentle, almost too gentle. His embrace is hot, but this kind of hotness will not burn people, nor will it make people feel Invaded.

No, in fact, he was indeed invading her life step by step, but this intrusion was so like the soft and silent spring rain that moistened things, so that she didn't respond at all.

She suddenly lost all her strength and fell into Zhan Zhao's arms.

Zhan Zhao immediately hugged her tightly, led her step by step to a dry corner, sat down slowly, and hugged her into his arms.

Yu Yikui rested her head on Zhan Zhao's shoulder.

When being hugged like this, she finally seemed to feel less uncomfortable, and began to make some small movements, shrinking her whole body into Zhan Zhao's arms, without saying a word.

Zhan Zhao reached out to stroke her long hair.

He didn't speak either.

Since he dared to hug her today, and hugged her so tightly, he was ready to reveal his heart.

He is not an indecisive person. Now that something has happened, he will never deny his feelings for her for the sake of some unimportant faces.

But... the time to speak is not now.

He hugged Yu Yikui, leaning against the stone wall, quietly waiting for her to relax, Yu Yikui kept shrinking back, like a cat, trying to roll herself into a ball of hair.

She looks like this...it's really rare.

Zhan Zhao felt a little helpless, but felt a little strange.Yu Yikui usually looks heartless and confident.

All of a sudden, a more fragile and real side was revealed, and while Zhan Zhao felt distressed, he also had a different feeling.

After a while, Zhan Zhao suddenly said with a smile, "Miss Yu, no matter how shrinking you are, you won't be able to shrink yourself into a ball."

Yu Yikui froze for a moment, but immediately stopped moving again.

Zhan Zhao: "..."

No, it's not like a cat, it's clearly like the kind of frightened rabbit that will suddenly fall to the ground stiffly, and will start to rustle again when it feels safe.

He surprised her again?

Zhan Zhao had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, stretched out his hand and patted her back slowly, trying to make her relax again.

After a while, Yu Yikui suddenly buried her head in Cheng Zhao's arms.

Zhan Zhao was shocked, and the first thought in his head was: What if she heard my heart beating so fast?

Then he smiled helplessly again, he relaxed slowly, but his arms were still tightly wrapped around Yu Yikui and refused to let go.

Now that I have decided not to hide it anymore, and my heart beats faster, what's wrong with letting her hear it?

The words of the mouth are deceiving, but the beating of the heart is not.

He hugged Yu Yikui frankly, quietly waiting for her to get better.After a while, Yu Yikui said, "Zhan...Zhan Zhao..."

Zhan Zhao said, "Huh?"

Yu Yikui's voice sounded weak: "Sorry."

Zhan Zhao said, "Why do you apologize?"

Yu Yikui was silent for a while, then said: "I lost my composure suddenly, sorry."

Zhan Zhao suddenly fell silent.

After a while, he sighed softly and said, "Miss Yu, you... you don't have to be like this."

Yu Yikui didn't speak.

Zhan Zhao said: "Miss Yu, is Zhan... an outsider?"

He didn't talk about friends, he said "the distinction between inside and outside".

Yu Yikui said: "No."

Of course he wasn't, Zhan Zhao was the best person she had ever met in her two lifetimes.

She had just recovered from that pathological fear, her mind was still a little numb, and she didn't think about anything extra.

So I didn't think about getting out of Zhan Zhao's arms... After all, it really feels good to be hugged by him.

In this silent darkness, his heartbeat and breathing were the only sounds.

Zhan Zhao's soft voice sounded here again: "Since Zhan is not an outsider...Miss Yu, Zhan is not a capable person, but if you can't comfort and tolerate you when you are frustrated, then you are in vain. .”

He suddenly lowered his head and put his eyes on the top of her head.

She kept burying herself in Zhan Zhao's arms, without showing any expression.

Before Yu Yikui could speak, he suddenly said: "Actually, Zhan should be sorry."

Yu Yikui said sullenly, "Sorry for what?"

Zhan Zhao said: "Zhan surpasses."

His tone was very calm, he said Chao Yue, and he held her arm but refused to relax.

People figured it out, or didn't figure it out, in fact, many times, it was just a momentary thing.

Zhan Zhao's thoughts on Yu Yikui before were hidden and hidden.But the moment he hugged Yu Yikui, he never wanted to let go.

He suddenly realized that he was not willing to be her friend like this, nor was he willing to keep his feelings hidden all the time.

His heart, which was pounding because of nervousness, suddenly calmed down.

If Yu Yikui still doesn't understand, then she is really a fool, she subconsciously looked up at him, and saw that his face was calm, his eyes were staring straight ahead, as if he was open and frank, without any reservations.

She said, "You..."

Zhan Zhao suddenly laughed and interrupted her: "Miss Yu, you are a very strong person."

Yu Yikui didn't understand why he said this suddenly.At this time, she chose to listen quietly without speaking.

Zhan Zhao said: "I used to think that you wouldn't be afraid of anything. It wasn't until that time...you looked at me like that in the coffin of the Marquis of Dong'an, that I realized...so you have something to be afraid of, or So scared."

Yu Yikui still didn't speak.

Zhan Zhao was silent for a while, then said calmly, "But Miss Yu, you are so scared, and after you calm down, you always say...it's nothing, or I'm sorry."

Yu Yikui finally spoke, and said sullenly: "Because I know that my gaffe has caused you trouble."

Zhan Zhao laughed, shook his head, and said, "No trouble, if Zhan can't even afford this little trouble, why do you have a deep friendship with me? Consider me a friend... so close."

He paused, and finally said: "Since the incident in the Dong'an Hou Mansion, I always think of my childhood, and think of my mother hugging me and comforting me like this after I was frightened by something. It never occurred to me to say sorry, I just grabbed her arm and babbled about how scared and sad I was."

His tone softened: "Zhan doesn't want to hear you say it's okay... Zhan just wants you to be the one who can complain with peace of mind."

"I've missed you like this for a long time. Zhan Zhao never wanted to be just your friend. So Zhan Zhao is the one who should be sorry, Miss Yu, do you understand?"
