Chapter 765: 753
Helian Si paused, his movements froze, "’Relatives’ came?"
"Mm." Yu Sangwan nodded guiltily, "Sorry."
Helian Si chuckled, kissed her cheek, "Why say sorry? Do we need to feel apologetic about such things? There’s a long road ahead; are you planning to apologize every time ’relatives’ come?"
He held her tighter, "I want to, but I’m not in such a rush; your health comes first. Want to shower? I’ll fill the bath for you."
"...Okay!"
Yu Sangwan nodded with a smile, watching Helian Si walk into the bathroom. The sound of running water quickly came from inside, and her eyes began to sting again. Jinxuan, how am I supposed to tell you we don’t have ’a long road ahead’ anymore.
...
Early the next morning, Yu Sangwan saw off Small Bun and Helian Si.
Helian Si kissed his wife goodbye at the doorway, "Still uncomfortable today?"
"Mm." Yu Sangwan nodded, "It’s not a big deal, I want to rest."
"Alright." Helian Si frowned, "Call a doctor to check... you’ve been lacking Spirit lately."
"I know." Yu Sangwan adjusted his tie, "Go on!"
Small Bun watched at the door, his mouth pouting, "Are you done? I’m going to be late! I’m leaving first!"
Helian Si paused, hurriedly turned around, "Okay, let’s go."
"Hmph..." Small Bun turned around proudly and went out first.
Watching them leave one after the other, Yu Sangwan couldn’t help but take two steps toward the door.
She saw Helian Si catch up, placing his hand on Small Bun’s shoulder.
Small Bun first shrugged him off, and then extended his hand to Helian Si, "Hold it like this... you even forgot this? Mom holds my hand like this."
Helian Si paused slightly, raised his hand to hold his son’s small hand...
"Ha..." Yu Sangwan couldn’t help but laugh, after all, they are father and son, how could they become true enemies?
But, even while seeing such a warm scene, why do I feel like crying?
On the road ahead, someone from Helian Wei came over.
"Yu reporter, the old president invites you over."
"Mm." Yu Sangwan nodded, "I’ll go with you now."
...
Still in the study.
Yu Sangwan spoke first, "Helian sir, can I... not take Small Bun away?"
"Alas." Helian Wei sighed, "I understand, separating mother and son is truly cruel! But, Qingming is Si’s only son... do you think, after you split like this, he will have another son?"
Yu Sangwan clenched her hands tightly, reluctant to leave Small Bun... but she equally could not watch her husband without an heir.
"Taotao." Helian Wei frowned, said solemnly, "I promise you, after Si is gone, Qingming will be the heir to this empire; your son is unique, he, is also my beloved cherished one! With a mother like you, I believe this child must be extraordinary."
Yu Sangwan felt a lump in her throat, a pang in her heart.
"Then, where do you intend for me to go?"
Helian Wei glanced at her again, truly intelligent and virtuous, but unfortunately... between our families there’s such a relationship...
He suddenly bowed towards Yu Sangwan, "Taotao, on behalf of Si, and the Helian Family, thank you! Not having you, it’s our family’s misfortune..."
"Helian sir!" Yu Sangwan hurriedly supported him, "Don’t be like this, I cannot bear it!"
Helian Wei’s eyes clouded, "Good child, go well... I hope we will have the chance to meet again in this lifetime."
Yu Sangwan was taken aback, meet again in this lifetime? Is it really possible? The day she left, it was raining heavily.
Fu Xianlin watched the butler move his daughter’s luggage out of the hallway, his brows furrowed.
Yu Sangwan came downstairs, he couldn’t hold it anymore, "Taotao, what are you doing?"
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan was startled, smiled lightly, "Didn’t I say, work transfer?"
"Transfer?" Fu Xianlin clearly didn’t believe it, "What work transfer at this time? Did Helian Si let you go? Isn’t he inseparable from you?"
Yu Sangwan lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
Seeing his daughter like this, Fu Xianlin was anxious, "Taotao, what grievance have you suffered? Tell your dad, you’re not alone now! Dad won’t let you suffer... I know Helian Wei is back, is that old fox troubling you? I’ll find him..."
"Dad!"
Yu Sangwan grabbed her father, her eyes a little red, "It’s not him troubling me, it’s voluntary... I don’t want Jinxuan to have such a hard time..."
"He’s having a hard time?"
Fu Xianlin got agitated, "Then that’s his problem! He has a mother like that, can he blame others? If not for her, everything today wouldn’t be like this!"
"Dad." Facing her father, Yu Sangwan felt guilty as well, "Without Taotao by your side, take care of yourself."
Knowing his daughter was determined, Fu Xianlin had no choice, "Where are you going? You have to tell me."
Yu Sangwan shook her head, choking up, "This transfer, my position is a war correspondent, I have to follow where situations lead, I don’t know where I’ll end up for now."
"..." Fu Xianlin pain-filled, clenched his hands, "No way! Helian Wei is too bullying! For his daughter’s sake, making it hard for you, and sending you to such a place, I can’t stand it! Taotao don’t go, daddy’s going to confront him!"
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan held back her father, "Don’t... this is my own request. Old Helian didn’t trouble me, I’ve always wanted to be a good reporter, don’t you remember? Being a war correspondent is my next plan?"
Even though what was said was true, the daughter’s departure under such circumstances was different.
"Taotao..."
Yu Sangwan looked out the window, sighed, "The rain is heavy, I still need to go to the hospital, see Le Zheng."
...
In the ICU, Le Zhengsheng quietly slept, very peaceful.
His current condition, no visits allowed.
Yu Sangwan stood outside the glass door, looking inside.
"Asheng, I’m leaving... you’ve slept for so long, how much longer until you wake up? Like this..." Yu Sangwan was clearly smiling, but tears hung at the corners of her eyes, "Promise me, when I return, you must wake up! Otherwise, truly won’t have a friend, you know?"
Le Zhengsheng naturally couldn’t answer her, Yu Sangwan just placed her palm on the glass, gently patted, "Asheng, take care."
After leaving the hospital, her phone wouldn’t stop vibrating.
The flashing ’Mengmeng’ on the screen, stabbing Yu Sangwan’s eyes.
At the steps, someone from Helian Wei came up, "Yu reporter, everything is arranged, are you ready to go?"
Yu Sangwan gripped her phone tightly, glanced one last time, then turned off her phone, "Mm, ready."
"Please."
In the heavy rain, the car door opened, Yu Sangwan got in and sped away.
The car wheels cut through the ground, countless water sprays splashing on the rain-soaked ground...
