Chapter 741 Sharing Weal and Woe

Cheng Su couldn’t stop Qi Taiguo, nor did she have the heart to, even if she could. She had witnessed the utter despair of this calamity, the sheer horror of its occurrence.

Thus, she could only offer her support.

"Always remember, you have to stay alive, otherwise, I won’t forgive you," Cheng Su said, wiping away her tears.

"Don’t worry, there probably won’t be any aftershocks, but even if there are, I’ll make sure to stay safe. Don’t you trust your husband’s abilities?" Qi Taiguo said with a smile.

Cheng Su nodded vaguely.

"Now, since you’ve reunited with your co-workers, let me go ahead and say hello, so you can get on the vehicle and head back first, how about that?" Qi Taiguo stood up, intending to make arrangements.

Cheng Su quickly grabbed his hand, "I’m not leaving."

Qi Taiguo frowned, then knelt down in front of her again, "Susu, now’s not the time to be stubborn. We don’t know if it’s still dangerous here, you can’t stay."

Cheng Su shook her head, "No, don’t say any more, I’m not leaving. Wherever you are, that’s where I want to be. I don’t want to be apart from you."

Qi Taiguo’s expression turned solemn, "If you’re here, I’ll be distracted."

Cheng Su covered his mouth, "You don’t need to say anything, it won’t make a difference, you should know my temper by now, anyway, I’m not leaving. I want to be by your side."

"Susu..."

"Taiguo, after such a long time of turmoil, I’ve been wrestling with the question of whether to divorce or not. But coming here, I realized I don’t want to, because I still love you. Last night, when that bed was about to crash down, all I could think of was that I might never see you again, and at that moment, I truly felt desperate. See, even death was looming, and all I could think of was you. Not being able to see you again hurt me deeply," Cheng Su said with teary eyes, "At the brink of life, all I thought about was you, and the thought of never seeing you again was incredibly painful."

Qi Taiguo was shocked, reached out with the pad of his thumb, gently wiping away the tears sliding down her cheeks, "Silly girl, aren’t I right here?"

"Yes, thank goodness you are, thank heaven you’re here. What would I do if you weren’t? I can’t leave, if Heaven really won’t grant us this favor, insisting on separating us, then even if we die, let’s die together!" Cheng Su said defiantly.

"You..." Qi Taiguo’s body shook, and he held her tight, "What am I supposed to do with you, woman?"

Cheng Su rested her chin on his shoulder, "Don’t send me away, okay? Let me stay close to you. As long as I can see you and know you’re here, that’s enough for me. I won’t get in your way, nor will I put myself in danger."

Qi Taiguo sighed, looking at her with a feigned annoyance, "After what you’ve just said, what more can I say?"

Cheng Su breathed a sigh of relief, smiling through her tears.

Qi Taiguo teased her face, "Crying and laughing, you look terrible!"

Cheng Su playfully punched him.

The two embraced each other once more.

Not far away, Zhu Lifen wiped away tears, "So this is what President Cheng and her husband are like, truly sharing weal and woe. It’s just so touching!"

Technician Zhu stood beside her, glanced at her, and stammered, "We, having gone through this ordeal, have also shared hardships!"

Zhu Lifen was startled, looked over, saw him blushing with an earnest look in his eyes, felt her own face heat up, and stamped her foot, "What nonsense are you saying? Hurry over, and greet President Cheng."

Saying this, she went ahead, with Technician Zhu quickly following, a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
