Chapter 202 I Only Have You
Although he said so, Su Zhen still pulled her into his arms, "Sleep."
"Mm." How could Shang Qingmei fall asleep? After the light went out, she stared into the darkness. The scenes from her dream reappeared, making her feel as if there were icy winds everywhere. She hurriedly called out to Su Zhen.
"Still scared?" Su Zhen asked her.
"No... no..." Subconsciously, she leaned closer to Su Zhen, "Will... will you blame me?"
"Blame you for what?" Su Zhen chuckled.
Her tone was very aggrieved, "I went to the funeral parlor today."
"What’s the big deal? After all, it’s Ronggui’s grandma. Do I really seem that petty to you?"
"I know you’re not... but..." Shang Qingmei began to sob, "I feel so guilty. If I had known, I shouldn’t have accompanied her up the mountain... I should have stopped her..."
"Oh? What happened?" Su Zhen actually only knew that his stepson’s grandma had passed away and hadn’t really asked about the details.
"That day, I... I wanted to see Ronggui, but he wasn’t home. His grandma was just about to leave, saying she was going up the mountain to see... see her son, and asked if I had time to go with her. I didn’t want to at first, but seeing that she’s an old lady without any transportation, I felt pity and agreed. Who knew... on the mountain, she was too overwhelmed with grief, lost her footing in front of the grave, and rolled down the mountain. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have gone with her... I should have stopped her from going..."
"Why didn’t you tell me?" Su Zhen frowned.
