There was no way to send this invitation to the addressee.
However, she still wrote it out as a matter of course, for reasons that she herself understood. When she came back to her senses, she realized that no matter how hard she tried, this invitation would never reach its intended recipient.
She did not know if there was really a heaven, like what they say in the legends.
She had once seen a movie called “The Postman of Heavenly State.”
According to the storyline, the male protagonist used to be an elite in the IT world. He had a successful career and a flamboyant personality. However, due to an accident, he became a paraplegic. As he neared death, God gave him another two weeks of life on the condition that he be a postman in Heavenly State, carrying messages between the Heavenly State and the human world, bringing hope to the people who had lost their loved ones.
She wondered if Gu Xingze would wish her happiness if this invitation reached him in the Heavenly State.
At the thought of his name, tears welled up in her eyes again!
Once upon a time, she did not dare to hope for happiness, because whatever happiness she had would have been a result of Gu Xingze sacrificing his life to protect her. It made her feel selfish and uneasy.
However, Qin Zhou said that Gu Xingze had risked his life to protect her only because he hoped that she could be the continuation of his life and take his place to enjoy the joys and sorrows of life.
Only then did she gradually walk out of that dark shadow.
“Xingze, how are you…”
Yun Shishi murmured with a smile as she slowly folded the invitation card close.
Mu Yazhe pushed open the study room door and walked in. He saw her sitting alone at the table, holding an invitation card close to her heart, looking rather dejected.
He walked over and gently put his arm around her shoulders. He looked at the invitation card she was holding and instinctively knew whom it was for.
He asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“I’m wondering if there’s a way of sending this invitation to him.”
Mu Yazhe could not help but laugh, immediately destroying her fantasy. “Heavenly State does not exist in this world. People who die will not be resurrected or ascend to become angels.”
The disappointment on her face became more apparent.
She knew too, that it was just wishful thinking on her part.
Mu Yazhe slowly squatted down in front of her, held her hand, and said solemnly, “So, in this very short lifetime, I will cherish you!”
He reached out and gently pinched her cheek as he rebuked, “My dear wife, we’re about to get married soon. Don’t reminisce about some unhappy memories. It’s inevitable for one to have regrets in one’s life, but let’s not allow these regrets to obscure the rest of our lives.”
“Uh huh.”
Yun Shishi put the invitation back in the drawer and hugged him gently.
The wedding preparations proceeded in an orderly manner.
There was still a week before the wedding, so Gong Jie brought Yun Yecheng back to the country in advance.
Yun Yecheng alighted from the plane and as he approached the arrival gate, he at once spotted Yun Shishi with the cuddly little Yueyao in her arms. Mu Yazhe, Youyou, and Little Yichen were all there. The corners of his lips twitched as tears welled up in his eyes.
It was an extremely emotional reunion for the father and daughter pair.
Yun Yecheng felt nothing but shame and regret towards his daughter. During the darkest period of her life, he could not be by her side to protect her. He was downright regretful that he had not been by her side throughout her pregnancy, childbirth and confinement period!
He felt an indescribable sense of guilt.
