“Sob sob sob…” He suddenly cried like a child, completely heartbroken! He did not mind anyone else hurting him, whether it was Yueyao or Youyou. Why… Why did it have to be her?! Why did it have to be his beloved Mommy? Why did she want to kill him?! What did he do wrong!
Little Yichen hugged his mother helplessly and cried sadly, “Why…”
She stared at him unfeelingly.
The boy howled sadly, “Why are you doing this to me?” “What did I do wrong!? I’m Little Yichen! Your Little Yichen! What did I do wrong?! Mommy… You can’t do this to me. You can’t…”
The door of the dark room swung open slowly.
Gong Shaoying strode in and saw the man in white standing expressionlessly by the side holding the crystal ball. He was silently looking at Little Yichen who was sitting on the chair.
At this moment, Little Yichen was still in his dream state. He kept shaking his head in disbelief as he muttered something under his breath.
Gong Shaoying bent over and listened attentively. The boy kept asking: Why, why, why…
He straightened up again and looked at the man in white. He asked, “How’s the progress?”
“Shh.” The man in white raised a finger, signaling him to keep quiet. Gong Shaoying fell silent and waited patiently.
The man in white said, “I’ve created the most terrifying illusion for him. Once he enters it, it will be very difficult for him to escape.”
No matter how determined one was, it would be difficult to turn the wheels of fate! What more a mere child!
Gong Shaoying smiled smugly, but he suddenly noticed that Little Yichen’s tightly knitted brow had gradually relaxed. Even the corners of his lips were slightly turned up in a smile.
The man in white widened his eyes in astonishment!
What was going on?!
The boy seemed…
Was he smiling!?
Why was he able to smile so freely in such a dream?!
The man in white immediately raised the crystal ball and looked into Mu Yichen’s face. Through the crystal ball, he could see his dream!
In the dream, it was still that desolate scene. Little Yichen was clinging on to Yun Shishi tightly, as if afraid that she would disappear! Even “Yun Shishi” was shocked!
“She” did not understand why he would still cling on to her so tightly when she had hurt him so deeply! As Little Yichen smiled, tears continued to stream down his cheeks. He opened his tear-stained eyes and said,
“Mommy, I miss you so much…”
The moment he said this, all the defense lines finally gave way!
He did not know if the scene before him was a dream or reality. Or whether his multiple injuries were fatal. He did not know if he was dying. He also did not know if the person who stabbed him in the heart was his real Mommy or an imposter! Even if she were not real, at least he had seen her. It was a good thing! Except that, if he were really dying, he wanted to embrace her for as long as possible!
“Mommy, I miss you so much…” As he spoke, he began to sob again. Forcing himself to smile, he said hoarsely, “Will you take me home?”
Yun Shishi was stunned into silence!
“Mommy, I miss you, Youyou, and Yueyao. Daddy…” He smiled and continued, “I just want to go home. I just want to go home to you guys. Won’t you take me home…”
