After three seconds of silence, Huo Mian slowly said, “Su Yu, if I die, please forget .”
“What?” Su Yu felt like he had been hit by lightning and couldn’t move his body.
If he heard right, Huo Mian had just asked him to forget her if she died.
“You didn’t mishear anything, that’s what I said.”
“Why would you say depressing stuff out of the blue… I thought that you had a real request, this doesn’t count. Take the bullet back and think about it. I’m telling you that I have a lot of valuable things in my mansion, pearls from the Qing Dynasty, blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty, a copper sword from the Warring States period, a jade pendant from the Western Zhou Dynasty. I have everything… anything is better than this.”
Su Yu thought Huo Mian was joking, so he wanted to give the bullet back.
However, Huo Mian didn’t take it from him. Instead, she looked at Su Yu with a serious expression. “Are you a man of your word?”
“Of course.”
“Then you have to keep your promise.”
“I…” Su Yu couldn’t speak.
“You said that you would fulfill any wish I have within your capability.”
“But this wish… isn’t sothing I can do,” Su Yu looked at her and answered with imasurable sadness in his voice.
To him, it was too difficult and cruel to forget Huo Mian.
“You have to do it…” Huo Mian stared into his eyes.
The two were in a stalemate for a while.
Su Yu tilted his head up and controlled his emotions...
Then, he packed up the bullet shell and softly said, “Okay, I promise you.”
Huo Mian smiled...
“But I don’t think you’ll die. If you die, I’ll go to hell, find Hades, and beat him up. After that, I’ll drag you back to the mortal realm. That’s all, rest well. Bye.”
Before Huo Mian could reply, Su Yu turned to leave without staying for another minute.
Of course, that suited Su Yu’s style. It was very much like him to threaten to beat up Hades...
After Su Yu left, Huo Mian changed out of her hospital gown and into casual clothes. She wore a white jacket and white boots.
“Dr. Huo, you’re leaving?” the nurse who was delivering the dinner asked.
She was beyond surprised to see Huo Mian leave...
“Mmm, I miss my mom.”
“But you’re still not in good shape, you can’t move around too much…”
“It’s okay, I am not driving anyways. I’m calling a cab and will be back in three hours. Don’t worry about .”
“But…” The nurse still seed conflicted.
“Don’t worry… oh, and don’t tell anyone that I left. If soone asks, say that I went to sleep. Thanks,” Huo Mian said as she turned around to leave...
The nurse didn’t think too much because she knew that Huo Mian was a reliable person.
Huo Mian did call a cab ho.
When she got ho, Yang irong was just about to make dinner...
“Mom, I’m ho.”
“Huh? Aren’t you supposed to be traveling?” Yang irong was quite surprised.
“Ah… I ca back early because I got bored.”
“Right, I don’t understand traveling. It’s tiring and the sa, wherever you go.” Yang irong was really happy to see her daughter co ho.
“Mom, did you eat yet?”
“No, I’m just about to cook. What do you want to eat? I’ll make so for you.”
“No, I’ll cook today.” After she spoke, Huo Mian took off her jacket, rolled up her sleeves, and went into the kitchen.
“What are you going to make for , I thought you only know how to make sses.”
Though Yang irong nagged her, she was quite happy...
“I’ll make you dumplings, do you have at?”
“Mhm.”
Then, Yang irong got Huo Mian so dumpling fillings from the fridge.
“It’s ready-made.”
“Great, you can just leave it here. Go rest, I have everything under control.”
“What’s wrong with you, kid? You’re acting strange today.” Yang irong sensed that sothing was wrong and looked at Huo Mian strangely.
“No… I am perfectly fine, I just want to make dumplings for you… You’ve been cooking for all these years, haha, I wanted to give back to you. I want to prove to you that you didn’t raise up for nothing.”
After speaking, Huo Mian quirkily kissed Yang irong’s cheek.
“Gosh, what’s wrong with this kid?”
Yang irong muttered as she walked out of the kitchen...
She didn’t see that the mont she walked out, Huo Mian’s tears poured down like waterfalls.
“Mom… Thanks for nurturing for twenty-four years,” looking at Yang irong’s silhouette, she softly said.
