    Shen Yan suddenly said: "Go and see the child, if you wake up, I will find you."

    He stayed alone and put Shen Ce into bed.

    Because the clothes were messed up, Shen Yan took them off in the bathroom. She could see all kinds of scars on Shen Ce's waist and thighs, some like cuts, some like burns, and some like Marks from cigarette butts. "He was left behind when he was kidnapped at the age of six," Shen Yan knew what she was looking at, "I guess it was because we were afraid that our family wouldn't pay enough ransom, so they were all in the dark."

    Shen Yan covered him with a quilt, turned off the light near the head of the bed, and pointed to the outside.

    "I originally wanted to find a good time to chat with you these two days," Shen Yan closed the bedroom door, "Wait, go get something." He quickly went back and retrieved a file bag.

    "Only me and Jin Shan have seen this, and Shen Ce's father has never seen it," Shen Yan handed her the file bag, "Shen Ce's mother asked me in private and asked me to bring it to you."

    Zhaozhao wanted to open the portfolio, but he didn't have the courage.

    Although Shen Yan called her auntie, to him Zhaozhao was still a girl who had not graduated from college, and he was a man who had experienced both family and business. When he took the file, he hesitated, for fear that Shen Ce's mother would be wishful thinking, and the girl would not know it at all.

    But looking at Zhaozhao's fingers poking at the seal of the portfolio, with tears about to fall, he has confirmed what Shen Ce's mother said.

    "My wife doesn't know what I said next. She thought that Shen Ce's mother gave us this so that she and I could take good care of Shen Ce." Shen Yan thought carefully, and specially kept a lot of luggage at the front desk with this The thing is to be able to avoid Jinshan at any time, and bring it to Zhaozhao to see.

    He sat diagonally opposite Zhaozhao, changed his breath, and asked softly, "Have you and Shen Ce ever been in love?"

    Zhao Zhao was shocked when asked.

    "It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient. Listen to me first," Shen Yan said slowly, "he's been mentally ill in the past few years..."

    "Not drunk—"

    "If it's just alcohol and sedatives, we're not so panicked. Jin Shan can't say a lot."

    All that came to her mind were the pictures of those mental hospitals she had known before, and she thought that Shen Ce, like those people, completely lost the consciousness of a normal person...

    "He doesn't know anyone, including you and me, and the mom who takes care of him. If you can't imagine, just remember the night you last saw him."

    That night Shen Yan sent Zhaozhao back, and then returned to the tea room, he was not normal.

    He said that he was injured and emotionally unstable, which would affect his father's wedding banquet and asked Shen Yan to drive him to his mother. Shen Yan was also afraid that so many elders in the family would teach him a lesson when they saw him doing this at the wedding banquet, and sent him away at night. On the way between the two, he told Shen Yan that Zhaozhao likes to think more, remember to tell her that he is busy with business affairs, and will contact her later.

    "He also comforted me that it would be fine in a few days, and he had the experience to deal with it," Shen Yan would not cry like his wife, but recalled that Shen Ce was still comforting others at the end of that night, and was heartbroken, "The next day, I packed up his luggage in Macau and sent it over, and his mother said that he was already well, and I was in a hurry to go to the laboratory to deal with things, but I didn’t think about it.”

    That was the last night everyone saw Shen Ce, and the last night he woke up.

    Shen Yan pointed to the things in Zhaozhao's hand: "This is all the treatment records, and there are records of rescues every year. It's a coincidence that he could not find any problems in his body, but his heart stopped several times. Alcoholism and sedative drugs Dependence is also very sudden... It feels like a complete change of person."

    Shen Yan and Jin Shan are all people who have seen the big scene. Ever since they knew the truth, they haven't slept well in the past few days. The husband and wife didn't understand why, but after a good wedding banquet, one person suddenly became mentally ill, and he had to be rescued constantly to survive.

    Her eyes were all white, and she lost all her ability to see things because of her tears.

    "that's it."

    Shen Yan tried his best to stand in a position that was fair to both of them and said, "His mother concealed this matter, wanted to hide the medical history, and didn't tell Shen Ce's father, because she didn't want your family to know. Any mother is selfish, she Of course, I hope you can accompany Shen Ce regardless of his illness. But I promised to bring things to you, I just want to tell you the truth, why he suddenly disappeared, and his condition. "

    "As a family member, I can take care of him wholeheartedly, and be prepared that he will relapse at any time. And you, Zhao Zhao, you have no obligation to do this. The past is the past."

    To Shen Yan, Shen Ce was his uncle, family, and friend. The two had a deep relationship since childhood. When Shen Ce was redeemed at the age of six, it was the thirteen-year-old Shen Yan who accompanied him, eating and living together every day, helping him escape from the autistic days of his childhood. Shen Yan accompanied him through the first experience, and seeing his second similar experience, the feeling was indescribable, only he knew it.

    He and Shen Ce's mother have completely different views. Now that Zhaozhao has a marriage contract, she and Shen Ce are brothers and sisters, so they shouldn't develop any more. A two-week relationship that ended best years ago.

    "He doesn't know everything, and he hasn't seen the things in your hands. Talk about it as little as possible, I'm afraid to stimulate him to relapse," Shen Yan finally said before entering, "If you are afraid of facing such patients, you can find them tomorrow. An excuse to say that you are busy with your studies, and leave the rest to me."

    Zhaozhao was sitting in the living room by herself. She believed in Shen Yan and did not doubt his words at all, but she still read it page by page.

    Before dawn, she threw away the tissues on the sofa and table to wipe her tears. Shen Yan went back to see the child and asked her, "Can you do it here by yourself? Would you be afraid?"

    Zhaozhao shook his head, and was saddened by Shen Yan's question in just two sentences: "He is also my family member, so what are you afraid of?"

    She helped guard in the living room, and at noon, she fell asleep on the sofa with her head resting on her arms.

    In her sleep, something soft covered her.

    Zhaozhao didn't sleep deeply and didn't want to sleep, but he was too tired and cried for too long, so it was easy to wake up.

    In her sight, Shen Ce was sleeping with messy hair, frowning slightly, and covering her with a quilt. The large quilt looks like it was held in the bedroom.

    As soon as Zhaozhao saw him, tears welled up, but they were still pressed back.

    Shen Ce pressed the quilt to her chest, only to find that she was awake, and the ice-soaked eyes finally had warmth.

    Zhao Zhao and he looked at each other for hours, and finally called him softly, "Brother."

    Shen Ce was quiet for a long time, then smiled: "This wine is worth drinking."

    "I knew," she pretended to be nothing, and sat up with the quilt, "you drink to soften my heart."

    He nodded: "Yes."

    He looked suddenly happy, with a smile on his face, turned around to look for the phone, and asked the guest room to deliver lunch. Just like at the barbecue restaurant last night, I flipped through the menu and read everything I could ask for. She was angry last night and felt that he did those things on purpose to make herself happy.

    Only when the scene in front of him is repeated can he realize that he is happy to see him, just like when he was in Hong Kong, knowing that she likes vegetarian food, the refrigerator can't wait to be full of vegetarian dishes that can be bought in the market.

    "This is also," Zhao Zhao went to the desk, faced him, pointed casually, and cooperated with him, "and this."

    He likes Zhaozhao to make demands on himself the most, and he does what he says.

    Before the two came to lunch, Shen Ce took a shower and changed into clean shirts and trousers.

    Zhaozhao didn't have any luggage here, so naturally she didn't change it. When she was brushing her teeth, she was still sniffing her sweater, would it smell bad? In the mirror, Shen Ce passed by the door.

    After a while, he came in with a cotton shirt and white sweater: "Change first."

    Zhaozhao's first reaction was that the couple would see them wearing Shen Ce's clothes in a while.

    "They haven't seen this dress before," he said first. "You said it was taken home by someone, but it's close anyway."

    Zhaozhao took it and asked softly, "How do you know it's close."

    Of course, he knew her home address: "Your home is on Mount Royal, and this hotel is at the foot of Mount Royal, within half an hour's walking distance on both sides."

    "Did you listen to what my mother said?"

    He smiled: "I know it myself."

    He had already checked her university, home, and surrounding layout. Before Zhao Zhao went to Hong Kong.

    He helped her slide the wooden door closed.

    Just as Zhaozhao unbuttoned the two sweaters, he heard him ask outside the door, "What did Shen Yan say to you?"

    "Don't say anything, just say... You didn't ignore me on purpose."

    There is also the mist left behind by his bath, with the fragrance of the bath liquid, Zhao Zhao was waiting in the mist, waiting for him to speak.

    "I didn't know that I would be away for so long," he said again. "I thought I would be away for a day or two at most when I was busy in Macau. Zhaozhao, I won't let you down, as long as I'm still awake."

    He used the simplest "leave" to describe, downplaying all the pain that happened to him.

    "Understood," Zhaozhao's heart sank, but he still said softly in a relaxed tone, "I just need to know that you don't want to avoid me. Brother, come out and talk, you can't hear when you boil the water."

    Even without Shen Yan's instructions, she knew that she couldn't repeat those days, which was tantamount to stimulating and forcing him to recall bad things.

    Even so, she never took off her sweater and hesitated in front of the wooden door: "Are you still there?"

    He didn't seem to leave: "What do you want?"

    "Don't take anything." There was a sentence that had been pressing in her heart for several years. She slowly re-fastened the two buttons and pushed open the door blocking each other.

    Shen Ce really didn't leave for half a step, where he just stood, and now he's still there.

    "I have a question, I want to make it clear," she said softly. "What did you take me for in the past?"

    The two were separated by a door. It was him who stepped out and she who stepped in. Seeing his fingers move slightly, Zhao Zhao wondered what answer he would get. This answer determines what she should do next.

    Shen Ce lowered her head and looked at her eyes under her eyelashes. She seemed to have asked this question countless times in her heart, and he also answered it hundreds of times in her heart.

    "My sister," he whispered.

    Zhaozhao was stunned for a moment, and then listened to him continue: "The woman I love. All of them."

    "Not only in the past, but also now."

    There is another sentence he can't say, you are still my wife, Zhaozhao.
