Chapter 638: Chapter 631: A Mother’s Love
Chang Yunhuan was just an insignificant little bug. His death didn’t stir a ripple in Sisi’s heart; she just thought he had wasted his skills too much.
If he had worked steadily, with his Qing University diploma, how could he have no good prospects?
But he refused to endure hardships, insisted on taking shortcuts, and now he’s ended up like this. It’s the consequences of his own actions.
This is called "you reap what you sow!"
Cyanide is indeed terrifying when it takes effect; it kills instantly. But once the toxicity is removed, the recovery is rather quick. Plus, Sisi’s body was naturally resilient to poisons, so after lying in bed for a week, she became lively again.
Her voice was still a bit hoarse, but Sisi felt it sounded even better this way—just like the voice of a female singer she liked from her past life, so magnetic.
"Grandpa Yun, don’t you think my voice sounds better now than before?" After appreciating her enchanting voice numerous times, Sisi joyfully shared with Old Man Yun.
"How pleasant can a voice like a broken gong be? Did the poison make you stupid too?"
Sisi knew she shouldn’t have asked the old man, wasn’t it just looking for abuse? But she wasn’t afraid of him now.
"Grandpa Yun, isn’t Zhong Ling’s voice very pleasant?"
"Oh dear, Datou, should I head to work now? Come on, hurry, let’s go to work."
Mr. Yun feigned ignorance and stood up to leave as soon as he heard Zhong Ling’s name, while Luo Datou, clueless about the situation, followed him bewilderedly asking, "Sir, didn’t you say there was nothing going on today and you didn’t want to go to that hellish place?"
"By the way, sir, isn’t Zhong Ling dead? How does Ah Nan know that woman? Oh dear, could it be that the woman isn’t dead and came back looking for you, sir?" Datou got extremely nervous, immediately entering emergency alert mode.
"Are you stupid? We handled Zhong Ling’s funeral—you and I—how could she come looking for Ah Nan? That’s what Black Hawk said." Mr. Yun snapped furiously.
......
The voices grew quieter until Sisi couldn’t hear them at all, but the amount of information was quite substantial!
Turns out Luo Datou also knew Zhong Ling, and Old Man Yun’s relationship with Zhong Ling was definitely unusual; otherwise, why would he handle her affairs unrelatedly?
Hehe, there must be some deep stories here!
Next time I see Uncle Mu, I must ask properly, or it will itch from curiosity!
Sisi didn’t even plan to ask Luo Datou and Niu Erniu; those two were the most loyal to Old Man Yun, and certainly wouldn’t spill the beans.
After drinking the nourishing soup brewed by Niu Erniu, Sisi took Du Du to visit the Old Man and Granny Zhao at the Tian Family. She had been in bed for days without seeing the two elders, wondering how they were doing.
Du Du held Sisi’s hand tightly, refusing to let go, melting Sisi’s heart.
This incident scared the little guy; every day he stayed by her side without going to school, just sticking to Sisi, sometimes waking up in the middle of the night to kiss Sisi’s face. Feeling her warmth, he would then sleep hugging her reassuringly.
He would often ask Sisi earnestly, "Mama, you won’t die, right?"
Sisi would also reply earnestly, "Baby, Mama will fly to the sky and become the brightest star far, far in the future, watching over my baby."
"How far is far, far in the future?" the little guy persisted.
Sisi thought for a moment and replied, "It’s when you grow old, baby."
"Then I’ll fly to the sky with Mama and Papa; without us protecting you, Mama would be scared."
Sisi was so moved that tears almost fell, hugging the little boy and kissing his serious face, laughing and agreeing.
What do children know about life and death?
What is the law of nature?
Let him think Mama is an immortal little devil for now; he will naturally understand when he grows up!
The Old Man and Granny Zhao were very pleased to see lively Sisi and kept scrutinizing her until they were sure she was well, relieved.
Sisi noticed Granny Zhao wasn’t looking too well; her brow was furrowed with worry, and the Old Man seemed a few years older as well.
"Grandpa, Granny, I’ll move in for a few days; I want to eat Granny’s cooking." Sisi said coquettishly.
"Sure, Ah Nan, whatever you want to eat, Granny will make it for you immediately." Granny Zhao somehow regained her spirits, put on her coat, and prepared to go grocery shopping.
Sisi laughed and listed a few dishes, and the old lady, elated, set out with her basket to the market, with Sisi accompanying her, leaving Little Dudu to play chess with the Old Man. Despite his age, the little guy was quite skilled at chess, able to compete with the Old Man for several rounds.
With Sisi and Dudu’s companionship day and night, the two elders regained their spirits, and no one mentioned the name Tian Lili at the madhouse. Everyone subconsciously avoided thinking about her, only Xu Qianwen would occasionally travel from Inner Mongolia to the Capital City to visit her daughter. But when Tian Lili saw her, she would just giggle and say, "I’m real—the rest are mine!"
Whenever she heard this phrase, Xu Qianwen would burst into tears; she wasn’t foolish. Her daughter’s sudden madness couldn’t be that simple.
She refused to believe Tian Aiguo’s claims that her daughter went mad out of love; would she be unaware of her daughter’s character?
If anything, killing for love seemed more likely, but Lina going mad over love was utterly unbelievable to her!
It’s evident Xu Qianwen, indeed, understood her daughter well!
But her husband was unreliable, her son unreliable, and don’t even mention her daughter-in-law; she had no means of uncovering the truth since nobody was willing to tell her.
Everyone said Lili went mad for love!
Bah! Nonsense!
Xu Qianwen secretly resented this but learned to be wise, knowing not to force it, as the Tian Family all disliked her and nobody would help her. She needed to figure out the truth herself, who really harmed Lili?
"Lili, Mama will find the truth; Mama will visit you next time!"
Xu Qianwen softly bid farewell to Tian Lili in the room. Tian Lili glanced at Xu Qianwen, giggled suddenly, muttered something unknown, and crazily began banging her head against the wall.
"Lili, don’t hurt your head; it will get injured!"
Xu Qianwen panicked, but the nurse beside her comforted her: "Mrs. Tian, don’t worry; these walls are specially made, incredibly soft; Miss Tian won’t hurt her head."
Xu Qianwen then noticed the indentation where Tian Lili hit her head, sighed in relief, forced a smile to thank the nurse, and walked away forlornly, clutching her purse.
