Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Shen Qianshu squealed from the pain from his grip. Her wrist hurt severely, but she did not disrupt him from his nightmarish sleep. She just leaned forward and hugged him. Her cheek was against his chest. His chest was bruised, and she could feel the unevenness of the scars through his white shirt. Her heart was soft, and she felt heartache for him.

Master, how many sins did you commit that made you get this disease? You refuse to talk about this matter to anyone and never spoke of your past. The wounds in your heart have been deeply engraved in you. They cannot see light again, and that is why you use such a way to hide your wounds. This is how you camouflage them, right?

How silly you are.

From now on, you have me.

I will always be by your side, whether rain or shine.

Everyone said that young people made promises easily, which was not surprising. Which young girl had never pledged to love someone deeply? Most of the pledges gradually fade away as the years go by, far, far away, and they were never remembered, like a wall in olden times. In the end, it would be mottled.

But she firmly believed that this pledge would be one for life.

“Don’t kill me.” Noah opened his eyes suddenly, and Shen Qianshu got up with him. His body was trembling. He was fearful, and his eyes were shifty. In his bloodshot eyes, there was an insurmountable amount of fear within. He looked at the expression in Shen Qianshu’s eyes, which were unclear. He broke into a cold sweat. Yet, he almost broke Shen Qianshu’s wrist.

“Noah… it hurts,” Shen Qianshu said softly. Noah let go of her immediately and turned around to hug her tightly. Shen Qianshu felt her heart aching. Who wants to kill him? Who could kill Noah, the Invincible?

“Dreams are often opposites from reality,” Shen Qianshu said and stroked his back softly. Noah was pure and naive. How was this not the vulnerable yet rebellious Ye Ling, who tried to defend himself when he was young? But he could only imagine himself fighting back. He had no power to go against the adults then.

No matter if it was the Old Master or Aventura, he had no power.

Noah’s voice was hoarse. “You wouldn’t want to know what I dreamed of.”

“It doesn’t matter what’s in your dream. What matters is that dreams are often opposites of reality. Whatever that happens in your dreams will never happen in real life. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be dreams, would they?”

This did not really make sense, but it persuaded Noah. Noah mumbled to himself. “Things that happen in dreams won’t occur in real life?”

“Right.”

“I dreamed that I married you. That wouldn’t happen as well? Huh?”

“…” Shen Qianshu was surprised.

This was awkward.

Noah tightened his grip, and Shen Qianshu was a little afraid. Marrying her in his dreams? Didn’t he dream that she killed him? Could marrying her be a nightmare? How could it be!!!

Just as she was overthinking, she heard Noah’s hoarse voice. “Indeed, you can’t even say something nice just to coax me.”

“Sigh… No…” Shen Qianshu grabbed him by the shoulders and looked at him intently. “Do you want to get married?”

Noah’s eyes lit up. She is willing to?

What does she mean?

Ever since she thought it through, Noah and Ye Ling were the same person, and they did not have the so-called two independent personalities. Shen Qianshu felt so much better by that. No matter how they refused to admit it, they were still one person with one soul.

“Noah, you are actually hesitating when I propose to you? Do you not want to marry me?”

“Of course I do,” Noah said. Just as he agreed, his head began to hurt as if a voice in his head was nagging at him constantly. Noah hugged his head in pain and curled up. Shen Qianshu kneeled by the bed and hugged him tightly.
