Chapter 357 You Are Not Welcome Here
Chapter 357 You Are Not Welcome Here
In the living room of the Goldsmith Bay Villa, the solemn and depressing atmosphere was like an airtight net, tightly enveloping everyone.
Xiao Yue hid behind the old lady in fear, with his head lowered, not daring to look at Mu Xiaoji.
Mu Huiying and Dean Guo sat on the sofa, sandwiching Mu Xiaoji in the middle. Mu Xiaoji closed his eyes, leaned against the sofa, and said nothing, as if he was lost in some kind of contemplation.
Shen Rou looked around anxiously at the door of the living room, pacing back and forth, her eyes full of anxiety.
At this time, the customer service of the Ji Hotel called. Shen Rou picked up the phone hurriedly, and heard the customer service urging on the other end of the phone: "Madam, the guests here have arrived. When will the old lady come over?"
Shen Rou turned pale and said quickly, "Okay, I got it. You guys go take care of them first." Then she hung up the phone.
At this moment, a luxurious business car slowly drove into the yard. Song Shijie opened the door and got out of the car. Shen Rou hurriedly went to meet him and asked anxiously, "Ajie, why did you come back by yourself? Where is Choubao?"
Song Shijie didn't answer, but walked into the living room with big strides. He saw that everyone's faces were livid, and he sighed helplessly.
The old lady looked at Song Shijie anxiously and asked, "Ajie, how is Cheng Yu?"
Song Shijie looked at everyone, his eyes focused, and said in a steady tone: "Except for the back injury, there is nothing serious."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good." After a pause, she asked anxiously, "Where's Choubao?"
"Mom, Choubao won't come back, so I asked Laorong to stay with him in the hospital. The guests at the hotel have all arrived, so let's get ready to go over there now!"
The old lady said with an unhappy look on her face: "Ajie, just say I'm not feeling well and can't go. Let everyone eat and drink well, and thank you all for your support!" After that, the old lady got up from the sofa, and Xiao Yue hurriedly helped her walk to the backyard.
Song Shijie looked at Mu Xiaoji, then turned and walked upstairs to the study. Shen Rou looked at his back and called softly, "Ajie," with mixed feelings in her heart.
She knew what Song Shijie was going to do, but she was worried about whether her son's frail body would be able to withstand it after learning the truth.
Not long after, Shen Rou saw Song Shijie walking down the stairs with the file bag in his hand.
Shen Rou hurried forward to block Song Shijie and said anxiously: "Ajie, don't."
Song Shijie walked around Shen Rou, walked up to Mu Xiaoji, handed the file bag to him, and said coldly: "Take a look for yourself!"
Mu Xiaoji slowly opened his eyes, saw the file bag, reached out to take the bag, and gently opened it. He took out two letters from it, one of which was addressed to Karina.
He opened another letter from Song Shijie, and the paper made a crisp sound in his hands.
Two very eye-catching words came into view: "Suicide note". Mu Xiaoji asked in surprise: "Dad, why did you write me a suicide note?"
Song Shijie said coldly: "Look carefully."
Mu Xiaoji saw the content: "To my love Xiaoji..." He slowly widened his eyes.
Mu Xiaoji was deeply attracted by the title at the beginning and began to read the content of the letter carefully: "To my beloved Xiaoji: When I started writing this letter, past memories came flooding back like a tide.
The years I spent with you, whether it was happy laughter or sad tears, are all inlaid in the long river of my life like stars, shining brightly, making me feel that there are no regrets in this life.
Xiaoji, you are so kind. Your kindness is like a strong light that penetrates the dark world. Your benevolence and kindness are like a panacea that heals the pain in the world.
Because of this, you use your life to save all living beings; I am willing to be your guardian in my own way.
I will overcome all difficulties for you and protect you from the wind and frost. Even if I have to give up everything I have, I will be happy to do it.
Now, when you see this letter, perhaps I have reached the end of my life and am no longer able to protect you. I hope you can understand my helplessness.
I can't remember the time I pulled you back from the brink of death, but my health has been deteriorating, as if it has run out of fuel; I often fall into a bad state like hibernation.
Every time you fall ill, the condition is extremely serious, like a raging flood, ruthlessly attacking the defense line of life.
That kind of power is terrifying, as if the god of death is approaching you step by step, trying to take you away from me.
Every time, I know clearly that if I don't try my best, death will drag you into endless darkness and we will be separated forever.
So, every time I try my best and fight the death to the death, even if I have to exchange my life for his, I just want you to return safely.
Because you are the most precious thing in my life, I will never allow anyone or anything to take you away easily. Here, I solemnly promise that this is my last wish.
I am willing to devote myself to you without reservation, Mr. Mu Xiaoji. If one day I fall into an unconscious state and you need treatment due to organ damage, I am willing to transplant my organs to you unconditionally, so that my life can continue in your body and continue to fulfill my mission of protecting you.
May the rest of your life be filled with peace and joy, my love Xiaoji.
Will writer: Jiang Chengyu
January 23rd of a certain year"
After Mu Xiaoji finished reading the letter, tears were already streaming down her cheeks.
He said in a trembling voice: "It turns out that at that time, he already knew that there was something wrong with his body."
Before his eyes seemed to emerge the image of Jiang Chengyu running around for him countless times, and those scenes of him risking everything for him kept flashing in his mind like a movie.
He thought of Jiang Chengyu who had silently guarded him and protected him from the wind and rain for countless days and nights, and had never retreated even when facing threats to his life.
But I was still unaware of it, still arguing with him over trivial matters and tearing up the marriage certificate. All those former willfulness and ignorance turned into deep self-blame and regret at this moment.
He suddenly realized how lucky and blessed he was to have someone who loved and protected him wholeheartedly.
The love and gratitude he felt for Jiang Chengyu surged in his heart like a tide, making him feel extremely painful and reluctant.
He knew that he would never be able to hear Jiang Chengyu's gentle voice or see his warm smile as before.
The pain of loss made it almost impossible for him to breathe, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a huge fear.
Mu Xiaoji was excited. He tightly grasped the cane in his hand, stood up suddenly, and walked towards the door without hesitation.
Seeing this, Mu Huiying and Dean Guo shouted nervously, "Xiao Ji, where are you going?"
Song Shijie reached out to stop Mu Huiying and Dean Guo, nodded slightly and said soothingly: "Let him go, he will be fine."
Mu Xiaoji came to the yard and shouted, "Security, security!"
Xiang Xiaowu heard the call, ran over smartly, and asked respectfully: "Master, what do you want?"
"Go, drive; I want to go to the City Central Hospital, hurry up!" Mu Xiaoji urged anxiously.
He nodded seriously to Xiao Wu and said, "Okay, Master."
Xiang Xiaowu drove the luxury business car quickly and stopped in front of Mu Xiaoji. Another security guard hurried forward to open the door, and Mu Xiaoji quickly got in the car.
Along the way, Mu Xiaoji was extremely anxious. The scene of Jiang Chengyu being severely beaten by him kept appearing in his mind. He clenched his fists tightly and blamed himself.
His eyes were fixed straight ahead, and he kept repeating, "Faster, faster."
In the city center hospital, Rong Shishan bought hamburgers, French fries and fried chicken legs for Choubao.
He sat beside the bed and coaxed her softly, "Stinky baby, Daddy is just tired and fell asleep! It's so late, you must be hungry, eat something, okay? A hamburger? Or a chicken drumstick?"
Choubao stared at the sleeping Jiang Chengyu with his big watery eyes, full of worry and fear. He shook his little head and refused to eat anything.
Looking at the food Rong Shishan was holding, he stretched out his hand to push it away. Then he took off his shoes, uncovered Jiang Chengyu's quilt, pulled his arms away, and lay down.
Rong Shishan looked at Choubao's small body curled up in Jiang Chengyu's arms, and reached out to cover Choubao with a blanket as if nothing had happened.
Choubao sobbed, shrank his head, and slowly closed his eyes in Jiang Chengyu's arms.
Rong Shishan put the hamburger on the bedside table and sat quietly in a chair beside the bed, looking at the two, one big and one small, with his heart full of emotion.
He knew that Jiang Chengyu had paid too much for Chou Bao, and Chou Bao's dependence and love for Jiang Chengyu were also very deep. In this quiet night, the whole ward was filled with a warm and distressing atmosphere.
Suddenly, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside, making a sharp sound.
Rong Shishan heard the noise and subconsciously turned his head to look at the door. Seeing that it was Mu Xiaoji, he stood up and asked with concern, "Why are you here? Is the old lady's birthday party over?"
Mu Xiaoji shook his head gently, and walked slowly and heavily towards the bed. He stared at Jiang Chengyu lying on the bed, and asked softly: "He...he didn't wake up?"
Rong Shishan sighed helplessly and replied, "No."
Mu Xiaoji looked at Chou Bao sleeping in Jiang Chengyu's arms and couldn't help but scolded: "Chou Bao, why is he sleeping here? Isn't there any other place for him to sleep?"
Rong Shishan explained as if nothing had happened: "Choubao has been sleeping like this since he was born. He can't sleep well at night."
Mu Xiaoji murmured softly: "No wonder the little monster was sleepwalking! I'm sorry, little monster, I wronged you; why did you..."
Mu Xiaoji smiled bitterly and said to himself: "It's me, I didn't give you a chance to explain; I'm a fucking bastard."
"I keep saying that I will take good care of you, but time and time again... time and time again, I am the one who hurts you the most."
At this moment, a childish voice suddenly sounded: "Stop crying wolf here, you fake gorilla! Get out. You are not welcome here."
Rong Shishan turned around and saw that Choubao had sat up at some point. His big watery eyes were filled with anger and resentment, and he was staring at Mu Xiaoji fiercely.
Choubao's little face was full of grievance and anger, his lips were trembling slightly, and he looked a little stubborn; his whole body exuded the same stubbornness and coldness as Mu Xiaoji.
