“Sister…” The more Hua Jinyu looked at her, the more his heart ached. He hugged her tightly and said in between sobs, “You’re really not responsible for Senior Xingze’s death. Don’t torture yourself and don’t live in guilt. I think that if you truly love someone, you’d give without asking for any returns. Gu Xingze treated you well out of his own will and without any regrets! He loves you like his own life and would definitely wish for you to be well! ”
“Yes, I understand!” She hugged his shoulders gently and sobbed. “I understand… so I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine…”
As Hua Jin wiped away her tears, he heard her say, “I want to see that child.”
“…”
Noticing his silence, she pleaded, “Even if it’s only for once. I really want to meet him.”
“I can take you to see him, but at least, let’s wait till tomorrow.”
Hua Jin explained, “When I left the hospital, the child was already asleep. After all, he’s only seven months old. He needs to rest.”
Yun Shishi nodded.
The next day, Hua Jin canceled an interview and took her to the hospital.
When they arrived at the ward, Jing Qi was not there. Hua Jin guessed that she must have gone to make arrangements for discharge.
Jing Qi said that the child had been recovering very well and there was no need for him to stay in the hospital any longer. Every day in the hospital added a day’s worth of expenses.
Since the doctor had already hinted that the child could be discharged, she thought it was a good idea to do that as soon as possible.
Pushing open the door to the ward, Hua Jin tiptoed into the room holding Yun Shishi’s hand.
The child was sitting up on the bed, staring at the world around him with his wide eyes blinking and full of curiosity.
Hua Jin had specially brought a gift for the kid—it was a Le Zhi pink unicorn plush toy.
He walked up to the bed and helped Yun Shishi to a seat. He bent over to look at the little guy and gently said, “Uncle is here to see you again! Are you surprised?”
“Yiyaya—” The child reached out his hand and actually raised a tender finger to point at him. His eyes widened in curiosity.
Hua Jin tapped on his tiny finger before placing the toy unicorn beside him.
The unicorn was medium-sized. A child of Youyou’s height would be able to hold it with one hand.
However, the little guy was only seven months old after all. When he opened his arms, he was able to put them around the toy.
It was obvious that the little guy especially liked this furry toy. He hugged it and rolled around on the bed. The seven-month-old child had already learned how to crawl around on the bed and was especially energetic.
Not being able to see, Yun Shishi could only hear a series of bell-like laughter coming from the bed. It was extremely pleasing to the ear.
The crisp laughter was like the clear spring of a mountain stream or even the sound of a bell.
It made her smile.
After settling the discharge procedures, Jing Qi returned to the ward. Stepping in, she almost smiled upon seeing Hua Jin when she noticed the stranger sitting by the window. For a moment she was stunned.
Although the person was a stranger, upon closer inspection, she seemed familiar, as though she had seen her somewhere before.
She suddenly recalled seeing this woman in the advertising posters at the bus station.
She endorsed a high-end cosmetics brand that was exceptionally expensive. When she was shopping at the mall, she had come across the brand’s counter in the cosmetics section on the first floor. A poster of this woman was also displayed at the counter.
Her name was… Yun Shishi?
