Chapter 462: Mu Wuying's past: Yao Feng
Xie Feng forced a smile and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart when he heard the words of the woman in his arms.
In the past, as his girlfriend, Mu Wuying naturally knew and understood many things about Xie Feng. In fact, although there were perhaps few things she did not know about him, even for Xie Feng himself it would be difficult to identify what it was since in the past there were practically no secrets between the two of them.
Due to their ti together, Mu Wuying was aware that although Xie Feng seed casual and indifferent, in reality he had always had that curiosity and disturbance in his heart, constantly pricking him like a thorn in his flesh; why had he been abandoned? Wasn't it too cruel to throw a child into the streets? Worse yet, a child who had lost his mory and was also wounded... How cruel could his parents be to do such a thing?
Xie Feng could clearly rember the day 1 when he opened his eyes for the first ti at the age of ten... For him, even if he was already a ten-year-old boy, that was day 1 because his mory was as blank as that of a newborn baby.
The white ceiling of a hospital, the sll of disinfectant characteristic of hospitals, the sound of footsteps and voices coming from the corridor and other rooms, the white sheets hugging his seemingly intact body, and the faint rays of sunlight coming through the window. It was all fresh in his mory.
However, what was most firmly etched in his mory at the ti was the piercing pain he felt. The simple act of breathing, the simple act of living hurt, hurt so much that just rembering it made him secretly shudder.
It was not physical pain and it was hard to describe, but if soone were to ask Xie Feng how he felt, he would answer that at that mont it seed as if his existence, his being, his whole soul, was being shattered into pieces like a glass window.
The heart wrenching pain made him cry from the mont he woke up until he fell asleep from exhaustion before waking up again due to the pain before falling asleep again. The process repeated itself and the doctors had no choice but to keep him sedated and asleep most of the ti.
About a month or two later, he was finally diagnosed and discharged. Fortunately the hospital did not give any problems nor did they ask for anything for the dical expenses and services rendered... No, rather than saying that the hospital did not give any problems, it would be more correct to say that they had no one to charge since he did not even rember his own na.
In the end, because he had no family, the governnt sent him to the district orphanage. It was there that he t Shen Xinya as a few months after he joined, she also showed up at the orphanage. The two hit it off right away since, coincidence or not, they were both like two blank canvases because she too had lost all her mories.
In fact, he didn't even know if he was ten years old at the ti or not, just as he didn't know if he was currently twenty years old, older, or maybe younger... It was just an approximation made by the orphanage and he was given a date of birth.
It was precisely because of all this that Xie Feng always wanted to know his parents. Not out of love for them, but because he wanted to ask them face to face how could they be so irresponsible to do sothing like that to a child?
Mu Wuying was well aware of that thorn in his heart and from a certain point of view she was even more aware than he was. Therefore, she had not ntioned anything until today.
"When I was still a little girl, my family was always strict and raised with the highest standards in the world." Mu Wuying began to narrate her own story slowly while resting her head on his chest. "The early years were sowhat lonely as except for my cousin Wu Yin, I didn't know any other kids similar in age to ."
Xie Feng caressed her hair and listened attentively for fear of missing sothing important.
"When I reached the age of 15, the Five Big Families gathered just like they did every year. For the first ti, my mother took to such an important eting because in the future the Mu Family would be led by and I had to et the other future leaders of the country."
Arriving here, Mu Wuying paused and opened her closed eyes to look at him before continuing in a sowhat nostalgic tone, "It was back then that I t Nangong Lei, Yao Zenyu, Yang Tian, and Gu Qianxue... The next ti I t them again was a year or two later during Yao Zenyu's birthday party where we all t again, but this ti there were more children present... Nangong Lei's younger brother, Nangong Chen. Yang Tian's cousin, Yang Li'er... And Yao Zenyu's two siblings."
"What?" Xie Feng interrupted her in shock and repeated with wide eyes, "Yao Zenyu's two siblings? Aren't you committing a mistake here?"
Xie Feng was 100% sure that the two juniors of the Yao Family were Yao Zenyu and Yao i, with her being his only sister. There could definitely be no mistake as he had investigated this family in the past several tis as they were suspects of Xie Yao's parents' death.
Mu Wuying gently put a finger over his mouth to tell him to let her continue, and continued narrating the past: "My mother's intention when she took to that eting was to let et outstanding young people since I was the only one in my whole family who for so strange reason could not use her powers even though I could feel them inside . However, nothing changed... Until that birthday night, that is."
At the end she couldn't help but giggle like a little girl before continuing, "The first ti I appeared, Nangong Chen seed to be on the verge of drooling just like many other youngsters. But my attention had been focused on Yao Zenyu's little brother... Although it might sound funny since while I was 16 he was only about 13 or 14 years old."
"That kid was nad Yao Feng and the first ti I saw him I knew right away that my life was to be spent together with him, who was five years younger than ." Mu Wuying looked at Xie Feng's expression, but seeing that he didn't seem upset but incredibly surprised by what he was hearing, she continued, "My heart was beating wildly like never before! Excitent was coursing through my veins and as my mother said afterwards, my face had the most dazzling smile she had ever seen."
"Without hesitation, I approached the kid nad Yao Feng who was sitting in a corner with a sowhat blank stare as he chatted with little Yao i who was only four years old at the ti. That night I completely ignored everyone, including my own mother, and focused entirely on the boy I was sure would be my future husband." Mu Wuying paused and a complex look glittered in her eyes before continuing.
"Little did I know that a few months later, that boy would have a fatal accident on the outskirts of Beijing and I would never see him again."
