Tech Dominator Start Chapter 173: A True Farewell

Chapter 173: Chapter 173: A True Farewell

In the early morning, the small village in the valley was shrouded in mist.

As the sun rose, the mist gradually dissipated, revealing the houses in the valley.

The clansn who had co to help in recent days had already dispersed, each busy with their own affairs.

Only at the large stone in front of Li Wanning’s house, there was an extra person sitting in a daze.

In the kitchen, Xu Pengfei helped Li Wanning’s mother, Lu Lanfen, with the fire, listening to Li Wanning’s mother’s words.

Xu Pengfei listened attentively, because he knew very well that Wanning’s mother had been suppressing her emotions for too long, and if she didn’t slowly release this suppression in ti, over ti, she would inevitably fall ill.

And once she beca ill, she might never recover.

This is definitely not an alarmist talk, as there are truly too many people who beco seriously ill after suppressing their emotions for too long.

"Both my children have been unfortunate."

"My daughter just managed to make sothing of herself, and life was starting to look up, everything was getting better."

"But then, heaven played a cruel joke on us, teasing us."

"A year ago, Wenbo often had nosebleeds at school. When Wanning ca ho for the New Year and heard about it, she took Wenbo to the hospital for a check-up the next day."

"After a blood test in the county, the lab report confird leukemia."

It wasn’t until this mont that Xu Pengfei learned the reason for Wanning’s brother’s death.

————————

Outside the house, Li Wanning remained silent, but tears occasionally fell from the corners of her eyes.

Li Wanning couldn’t understand why, when a minor passed away, the funeral couldn’t be elaborate.

Her poor brother had just passed, and after only being at ho for a day, he was sent up the mountain the next day.

There were no drumming and gongs as in mory, and the clansn wouldn’t even allow her parents to accompany her brother on his final journey.

Before dawn broke, a group of people secretly took her brother up the mountain.

The elderly clan elder, leaning on a cane, repeatedly reminded everyone not to talk on the way.

This made Wanning, on the journey to see her brother off, dare only to cry silently, without making a sound.

Li Peng looked at the cigarette butt remaining in his hand and sighed.

With Wenbo gone, life suddenly seed to have lost its direction, and everything felt exhausting.

It was as if he had lost his life’s goal, confused, lost, still lost.

Xu Pengfei ca out of the kitchen holding two bowls of noodles, delivering them to the father and daughter by the large stone.

At the kitchen door, Lu Lanfen leaned sideways against the door, watching the three outside.

"Have sothing to eat."

Li Peng, holding the bowl, saw his daughter still in a daze, not taking the bowl and chopsticks, and urged:

"Be good, have sothing to eat."

"Your brother certainly wouldn’t want to see you like this."

Li Peng looked toward the mountain to the east, his bloodshot eyes filled with lancholy as he said:

"Eat sothing, your brother is watching us."

Upon hearing these words, Li Wanning couldn’t hold back her tears once more, but this ti, she accepted the noodles Xu Pengfei handed over.

The reason why Li Wanning and her father sat together on the large stone at the doorway was precisely because from there they could just see the lonely new grave.

"You should go back to work tomorrow, if you don’t go back, it’ll delay your job," Li Peng advised while eating noodles.

"Don’t worry about your mother and ."

Li Wanning opened her mouth to say sothing, but what her father said was very realistic.

The company had just moved to Huo County not long ago, and Xu Pengfei, as the company president, was very busy, no need to say much.

If the ti is short, it’s okay because the boss is there.

But if it takes too long, it won’t work.

The boss is not in the company to manage a pile of miscellaneous affairs below but to do research and developnt.

After breakfast, Xu Pengfei walked so distance away to call the boss and report the situation.

"Hello?"

"Boss, Wanning and I will probably return tomorrow, at the latest by the day after tomorrow to the company."

In the apartnt building, just waking up, Mo Jingchun was silent for a while before asking:

"Li Wanning is not beside you, right?"

"No, boss."

"That’s good. Has soone in her family passed away?"

Xu Pengfei glanced at Wanning, still in a daze in the distance, and responded with a hum.

"It was Wanning’s brother. She rushed back to see him one last ti, and not long after, he was gone."

"Her brother had been holding on, waiting for her."

"Passed away due to illness, right?"

"Yeah, it was leukemia."

Leukemia!

When the three words left Xu Pengfei’s mouth, Mo Jingchun’s heart tightened suddenly.

Leukemia!

Mo Jingchun almost scread at Xu Pengfei:

"What did you say? Say it again!"

Standing in the vegetable garden, Xu Pengfei was so startled by the boss’s sudden shouting that he almost didn’t hold on to his phone, nearly dropping it.

"Boss, it’s leukemia."

In the apartnt building, Mo Jingchun fell silent directly.

Without Mo Jingchun speaking, Xu Pengfei on the other end of the phone didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

Leukemia, leukemia.

Why did that fool Wanning stay silent in the company, not even ntioning it in passing?

If the word had reached Mo Jingchun’s ears, Wanning’s brother probably wouldn’t have died.

Although the special dicine for leukemia hadn’t been approved for market release yet, by putting in a word and earning the consent of Wanning’s family, they could have used the dicine for her brother first; it was not likely that those above would make it difficult.

After a long while, Mo Jingchun sighed.

"Old Xu, do you know? Actually, our company has developed a special dicine for leukemia, it’s just not approved for market release yet."

"I can tell you, as long as it hasn’t deteriorated to the last stage, the cure rate for leukemia with the new drug should exceed eighty percent."

In fact, Mo Jingchun was being reserved.

According to the records, the cure rate for the special leukemia dicine was as high as 95%; leukemia was like a common cold, as long as you take dicine and treat it in ti, it’s not a terminal illness.

Perhaps this is destiny.

Human fate is like this, everything is preordained.

The Xu Pengfei on the other end of the phone was already too shocked to speak.

After sighing again, Mo Jingchun said to Xu Pengfei, "Old Xu, the leukemia special dicine will be marketed eventually; instead of hiding it from Wanning, it’s better to tell her now."

"Otherwise, when the ti cos, Wanning might misunderstand the company."

"Think carefully about how to tell Wanning about this matter."

After the call ended, standing in the vegetable garden, Xu Pengfei for a mont didn’t know how to talk to Wanning.

On the other hand, in the apartnt building, Mo Jingchun shook his head.

True goodbyes do not happen on ancient tracks with pavilions, nor with exhortations to drink another cup, but simply, on a morning like any other, when soone remains in yesterday.

Looking at Candy, still sound asleep on the bed, Mo Jingchun felt he must live well.

To cherish life, to watch Candy grow up.

Until his own old age.

Life is but a passage, like grass and trees in spring, a fleeting mont in the wind and rain.

Life is short, coming and going in haste.

A hand suddenly waved in front of Xu Pengfei, who was spacing out.

"What’s wrong with you, don’t scare ."

Seeing Xu Pengfei’s appearance, Li Wanning looked worried.
