Chapter 725 - He Slept with Her (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mu Sihan walked to Xiaojie’s dormitory, looking up at the CCTV not too far away.

The brat was his son, so he naturally knew him well.

Besides, there were only so many places he could hide at and avoid the CCTV at the same time.

Mu Sihan tried to follow a possible path Xiaojie could take to avoid the CCTVs, and he arrived at a small hill that was not too far away.

There was a path up the hill, to which Mu Sihan followed it upwards.

When he arrived at the top, Mu Sihan looked around, seeing a small figure huddled in a ball.

He was sitting on the branch of a big tree, his black grapes-like big eyes were staring at the sky in a daze.

He didn’t even realize that Mu Sihan was around.

Reaching out, Mu Sihan easily jumped on the tree.

He sat next to Xiaojie.

Xiaojie turned his blurry eyes towards the sound, his long lashes fluttering when he saw Mu Sihan sitting next to him. He asked softly, “Daddy, is Pretty Zhizhi really not around anymore?”

Mu Sihan pursed his lips tightly, his eyes dimming slightly. “It’s an accident that no one expected.

Xiaojie looked away from Mu Sihan’s face, his black eyes staring at the sky again.

“Pretty Zhizhi used to tell me that after people go to heaven, they will become stars. Daddy, if Pretty Zhizhi isn’t around anymore, she will definitely become the brightest star, so that I can see her straight away.” Xiaojie’s voice was slightly low. He looked like he was about to cry, though he was suppressing it with all he could. “But I looked at the skies for a very long time, I still wasn’t able to spot the brightest star.”

Xiaojie sniffled, pouting slightly. “You adults must have made a mistake. Pretty Zhizhi is still alive! It’s just that she’s hiding from anger and does not want us to find her.”

Hearing Xiaojie’s words, Mu Sihan’s eyes turned red.

Reaching out to hug Xiaojie’s small shoulders. “She’s still alive in our hearts.”

He was not willing to tell Xiaojie about Nan Zhi’s accident because he was afraid that he would not be able to take it.

He had been birthed and raised by Nan Zhi.

Their relations.h.i.+p and bond was so strong, which was why even though he may be still a child, his feelings for his Mommy would not be less than anyone else.

Mu Sihan hugged Xiaojie, resting his sharp chin on Xiaojie’s head. “Brat, you have to be strong, got it?”

Xiaojie buried his pretty face into Mu Sihan’s firm and broad arms, his voice slightly choked with tears. “Daddy, Pretty Zhizhi won’t die. I don’t want Pretty Zhizhi to die. Go and look for her and bring her back…”

Mu Sihan felt like something had tugged a nerve in his mind ruthlessly, that numbing pain swarming him once more.

He raised his hands to cup Xiaojie’s tears-laden face, pressing his forehead against his. He said hoa.r.s.ely, “Daddy will be with you in the future. Your Pretty Zhizhi always hoped for you to be happy as well, no matter where she is.”

Xiaojie wiped his tears, looking at Mu Sihan obediently.

Daddy seemed to have lost quite a bit of weight, it must have been because he missed Pretty Zhizhi too much!

He didn’t believe that Pretty Zhizhi had become a star. Pretty Zhizhi would definitely return if he was obedient!

“Daddy, is Grandma very sad as well? I want to go and visit Grandma tonight.”

The person that Pretty Zhizhi thought about the most usually was Grandma.

Now that Pretty Zhizhi isn’t with Grandma, he had to accompany Grandma more in Pretty Zhizhi’s place.

Staring at the obedient child, Mu Sihan felt a pang in his heart.

If Nan Zhi did not meet him, would her life be much quieter and nicer?

After Mu Sihan spoke to the instructor, he left the campsite with Xiaojie.

It was already late at night, but An Feng was not asleep yet.

Like Mu Sihan, she could not fall asleep everyday.
