Chapter 227 - As Long As It's You
"Let's go!" Following Shi Jin's voice, the motorbike shot out like an arrow.
Fu Xiuyuan subconsciously hugged Shi Jin tightly, pressing her slender waist and her entire body into his embrace. Then, he realized that the feeling of hugging her was no less than being hugged by her.
The girl was in his arms, the wind whistling in his ears. He could continue like this until they reached the end of the world.
Shi Jin quickly drove the bike to a mountain road in the suburbs. The mountain road was difficult and there were many bends.
She played to her heart's content. She sped up, twisted, and drifted. Every movement was smooth.
The mountain roads were getting harder and harder to navigate, but Fu Xiuyuan didn't warn her. He just hugged her tightly, protecting her safety as her final barrier and fortress. He left her with all the freedom to act.
When the motorcycle reached the last stretch of road at the top of the mountain, Shi Jin made a beautiful movement. Her long legs were propped up straight on the ground, balancing the motorcycle that had stopped.
She took off her helmet and panted slightly. Her scarlet lips were slightly parted, and her expression revealed a trace of excitement after the adrenaline rush.
She turned around and smiled. "I've really relaxed a lot."
Fu Xiuyuan was holding onto her waist, but had no choice other than to retract his hand. His fingers caressed his own palm as he reminisced about the feeling just now.
The two of them had already reached the peak of the mountain.
His vision was dim. Standing there, he could see the silhouette of the entire capital.
Shi Jin walked over and placed her hands on the railing, looking down at the city below them.
Fu Xiuyuan stood beside her and took in her smile, excitement, and sweetness.
Suddenly, Shi Jin pointed at the sky. "Look, the moon."
In the current city, it was rare to see such moonlight. The entire night had been replaced by neon lights instead. Even if there was a moon, it would be easily overpowered by the electric lights.
However, the moon was extremely bright tonight, and the cold light made them feel especially relaxed.
Fu Xiuyuan followed her finger and looked up at the sky, his gaze serious.
No matter how trivial something was, as long as it was with Shi Jin, it would be extremely interesting.
"I've thought of a tune," Shi Jin said to him and started humming softly.
Fu Xiuyuan had never heard this tune before, but all the tunes that Shi Jin hummed were very nice. Especially tonight.
Her style had always been energetic, and she rarely sang slow songs. Her singing was especially moving.
After she finished humming, she smiled and asked, "How was it?"
"Very good," Fu Xiuyuan said seriously.
"Do you think everything I do is very good?"
Fu Xiuyuan nodded. "As long as it's you doing it."
As long as it was done by her, everything was the best.
Shi Jin smiled. It had been a long time since she had smiled so happily. After her rebirth, she had been busy trying to redeem herself, her friends, and her family.
Even Fu Xiuyuan had many things that he needed to work hard for. However, Fu Xiuyuan always treated her without reservation.
This feeling enveloped her, making her feel brave and invincible every time.
On the way back, Fu Xiuyuan drove. Shi Jin sat at the back, hugging his waist and resting her face on his back.
Unlike Shi Jin, who had gone at lightning speed, Fu Xiuyuan drove slowly and the motorbike meandered through the mountains. If possible, Fu Xiuyuan hoped that this journey would never end.
After their excursion, Shi Jin was very relaxed. She took another hot bath and her insomnia left her. She slept until dawn and woke up full of energy.
Fu Xiuyuan took her to see Gu Jingyuan.
"It will take some time to perform acupuncture on Big Brother. You can go and do your work first. There's no need to wait here."
Every time Fu Xiuyuan stood guard outside, when he felt insecure, or even when he was closest to her, he would stay there for a day and a night. Shi Jin couldn't bear it.
Fu Xiuyuan nodded. "I will. You do what you need to do."
He insisted on sending Shi Jin in.
The two of them avoided the building where Li Juekai and Gu Qingqing were. After walking a long distance, they finally arrived at Gu Jingyuan's office.
Gu Jingyuan had already arranged an operating theater. As acupuncture was not modern medicine, there was no need for those top-notch instruments, but a good, clean, and absolutely quiet space was valuable to any doctor or patient.
The two of them had yet to approach Gu Jingyuan's office when two tall strangers dressed in black walked towards Shi Jin.
Judging from their attitude, they had come with ill intentions.
Shi Jin frowned slightly and reached for the sleeping needle she carried with her.
It was an extremely short silver needle with a sedative extracted at a high concentration. One needle would be enough to knock down an elephant, not to mention a strong man like him.
She did not know who these two people were and what they were here for. However, after her rebirth, she was very vigilant.
As expected, the two of them came closer. They exchanged glances and attacked Shi Jin together.
Their target was Shi Jin, and they didn't even care that Fu Xiuyuan was following her.
The two of them were both tall and strong foreigners. Although Fu Xiuyuan was nearly 1.9 meters tall, in their eyes, such a man was too skinny. It was easy to deal with him.
The two of them attacked Shi Jin together just as she was about to pull out her sleeping needles.
In just a few seconds, the two men fell to the ground. Before they knew what happened, they had been knocked down.
Perhaps only Shi Jin vaguely saw Fu Xiuyuan's actions.
Even if Fu Xiuyuan wasn't around, Shi Jin could still have taken care of the two of them herself. She was used to solving everything by herself, but the feeling of being protected by someone… She looked at Fu Xiuyuan's cold side profile, and a feeling arose in her heart. It was so good.
It felt good to be protected by him, and to have someone stand up for her.
She suddenly recalled the scene of him rushing in front of her and protecting her in her previous life.
Fu Xiuyuan exuded a strong murderous aura. His eyes were red as he bent down and grabbed one of the ruffians by the neck. "Who are you?"
The two were scared silly. All they wanted to do was to stop Shi Jin, but they hadn't expected her and her friend to be so ruthless. It was as if the man was going to break their necks in the next second.
His entire body was shrouded in a layer of viciousness, as if they were not threatening Shi Jin, but his one and only treasure in the world.
"Don't touch my sister!" Gu Jingyuan rushed out of his office. Behind him were two burly men.
The scene before him stunned him for a moment, but it was also within his expectations.
