Chapter 743 - I Have Been So Humbly In Love With You (2/2)

Everyone was in joy.

Xia Xiaofu couldn’t adapt to the dazzling white room and the smell of disinfectant. She closed her eyes and then reopened them. She first looked at Little Xuyan beside her, then raised her hand to caress her head.

“Mommy, the doctor said your hand is injured, and you shouldn’t touch it.” Little Xuyan leaned her delicate face to Xia Xiaofu’s side and rubbed against her lovingly.

“Mummy, you have finally woken up. You have been sleeping for a long time. Little Xuyan was so scared.”

Xia Xiaofu lifted the corners of her mouth and softly said, “Mummy is okay. Mummy is here. There is no need to be afraid.”

“Yes.” Xia Xuyan nodded vigorously.

Xia Xiaofu looked around with her almond eyes. She looked suspiciously at Little Xuyan. “Little Xuyan, where is Grandma? Why don’t I see your grandma here?”

Hearing that, Little Xuyan’s eyes filled with tears. “Mummy, Grandma is missing.”

“What?” Xia Xiaofu was shocked.

“Miss Xia,” said Ah Li, his face grim. “I have some bad news for you. I hope you can brace yourself for this.”

Xia Xiaofu’s face was as white as a sheet of paper. “What’s the bad news? Is it about my mother?”

Ah Li lightly nodded his head. “Miss Xia, Auntie met with a car accident when she was crossing the road this morning. Unfortunately, she has…passed away. ”

Unfortunately…passed away?

It took Xia Xiaofu a long time to understand that sentence. She struggled to get up from the bed as she hoarsely and painfully shouted, “Mom!”

Ou Luoxi stood outside the door. He didn’t dare enter. His appearance would not only upset Little Xuyan but also Xia Xiaofu. He could only stand outside the door and listen to her painful screams.

He did not know what he could do.

…

Xia Xiaofu rested for two days, and then she got out of bed despite the doctor’s objection. She personally sent her mother on her last journey and buried her next to her father.

It is now autumn. This year’s autumn is even colder than usual. There were not many relatives whom the Xia family still kept in touch with. Only Xia Xiaofu and Little Xuyan were left in the cemetery, and there was even a light drizzle on the day of burial.

Xia Xiaofu was wearing a black tweed coat, holding an umbrella in her right hand and holding onto Little Xuyan with her left hand. The two figures, one tall and one short, stood in front of the tombstone quietly.

“Mummy, where’s Grandma? Why are we here?”

Xia Xiaofu squatted down slowly. She touched Little Xuyan’s head affectionately and said, “Little Xuyan, Grandma has gone to a place called heaven. She may not come back for a long time.”
