Chapter 3383: Nirvana (24)
She paused for a moment before giving a weak smile and saying, “But, these are two separate matters. I’m very sorry too about your parents’ deaths. They were innocent and were implicated…”
Clenching her fists, she smiled sadly. “But it’s already happened, and it’s hard to change things. Mu Xi, you’re on your own now.”
With that, she left the hospital.
Mu Xi knelt on the ground in a daze as warmth drained out of her body.
A few days later, in the middle of the night, she removed the blood transfusion line and consumed potassium chloride, leaving behind only a letter.
Given that she believed in the philosophy of Buddhism, she was of the opinion that people who committed suicide would go to hell.
This was her return journey, and also the most decent way out for her.
Yun Shishi was not too surprised by Mu Xi’s death. She locked the letter away in the cabinet and did not open it to read.
She believed that in this world, everyone’s fate was determined by the heavens. Perhaps this was also a predestined bond.
She could not deny that Mu Xi’s father and mother were implicated because of Youyou.
However, there was still no news of Youyou because of Mu Xi.
It was as if fate was toying with them.
Even so, she firmly believed that Youyou was safe and sound!
Every day, she would pray piously, hoping that one day, she would return home to see that Youyou had prepared a table full of food, that he’d be in his cute little bear apron, standing in front of the porch and giving her a gentle hug.
“Mommy, you’re home!”
She looked forward to this day when she’d see a disdainful Youyou helping her tidy up the cloakroom and complaining at the same time, “Mommy, you’re running out of clothes to wear. When shall we go shopping?”
She was even more looking forward to seeing him carefully push open her door in the middle of the night, sneaking into her room to check that she was properly tucked under the covers.
However, she had no idea when this day would come.
Little Yueyao could speak now. From making senseless noises till she could clearly call out “daddy” and “mommy”… And even if Little Yichen did not mention it, how could she not know that the first word that Yueyao uttered was “big brother”?
That day, when Little Yichen was carrying Yueyao in the nursery, Yueyao was hugging him and calling him “big brother”. She had her back to the door and covered her mouth tightly as she cried.
She heard it. She heard Yueyao calling “big brother”.
She recalled the time that Youyou had run to her with Yueyao in his arms, exclaiming happily, “Mommy! Yueyao has learnt how to call out ‘big brother’!”
She did not believe him.
However, now that she heard it with her own ears, she finally believed it.
Youyou must have practiced this with Yueyao.
How wonderful it would have been if Youyou were here!
He would have been overjoyed if he heard it himself, wouldn’t he?
“Youyou, did you hear that? Little Sister is calling out for Big Brother…”
…
Ackland Island.
On the beach, a boy in black stood by the seaside. The waves surged continually, bathing his ankles in swirling water. The sea breeze that brushed against his face carried a hint of coldness.
The boy stood still as the sea breeze came at him.
His thin black shirt fluttered in the wind.
He gently closed his eyes and slowly opened them again. The sea breeze got into his eyes, causing him to shed some tears.
His features were cold and beautiful, his gaze was steady and focused. The black diamond ear stud he wore was especially eye-catching.
Carrying a windbreaker, Lisa walked up behind him, then stopped by his side and gently draped the garment over him.
“Master, the sea breeze is a little strong. Be careful about catching a cold.”
