“You used to like her a lot. You’d carry her and teach her to say big brother’. Now that she has learned to address you, you’re ignoring her.”
Yueyao pouted pitifully and cried while saying, “Big Brother ignores me… Big Brother ignores m
Youyou turned around expressionlessly and said in an icy tone, ‘I’m not interested in playing family with you guys.
“So get lost.” Youyou coldly turned his head and sat back on the bed like an ice sculpture.
Yun Shishi picked up Yueyao and left with a sigh.
The door closed softly.
Youyou looked back at the door with indifference. However, there was a flash of absent-mindedness in the depths of his eyes. The image of the teary Yueyao appeared in his mind, and his thoughts became increasingly chaotic. He collapsed onto the bed, threw the covers over himself, and closed his eyes.
Outside the door, Mu Yazhe and Gong Jie looked at each other when they saw Yun Shishi’s dejected and gloomy expression.
Gong Jie said, “Shishi, don’t worry. Youyou’s words now are unintentional. He doesn’t remember you or Yueyao. It’s understandable that he treats you as an enemy.”
Mu Yazhe agreed with Gong Jie and consoled her, ‘Well take it slowly.”
“What if.” Yun Shishi asked worriedly, ‘what if he doesn’t remember for the rest of his life?”
“Don’t be so pessimistic.” Gong Jie said as he sensed a headache coming on, ‘’m more worried about you than Youyou.” He was worried that she would be disappointed, fall into despair and sadness, and never recover from this setback.
Yun Shishi shook her head and replied plainly, “I won’t. Ill become stronger. Now is when Youyou needs me the most. Xiao Jie, don’t worry!”
She smiled at him.
Gong Jie took Yueyao over from her. Seeing that the little fellow was still upset and teary, he kissed the corners of her eyes and coaxed, “Yueyao, dont cry. Uncle will carry you.”
“Uncle…” Yueyao threw herself into his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck. Gong Jie was overjoyed. It was rare for Yueyao to be so affectionate towards him, taking the initiative to put her arms around his neck. He could not help kissing her repeatedly, and would not let go of this little squishy ball.
Mu Yazhe turned frosty and said, “Since you like babies, you should have one yourself.”
Gong Jie scoffed. “No, I love Yueyao the most.”
As he spoke, he subconsciously put his arms around her protectively, as though worried that Mu Yazhe would snatch the child away from him. Their clowning around put Yun Shishi in a slightly better mood. It was as if sunlight had shone into her heart.
It didn’t matter. It didn’t matter that the boy didn’t remember her.
She would work hard to make him remember.
It was late at night.
Youyou lay on the bed. Even though he had not eaten for a day, he did not feel hungry. He carried Alice’s medicine with him. To a certain extent, these medicines would give him a feeling of being full and could help supplement various functions.
He stared at the ceiling, his cold eyes emotionless.
Footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, followed by a long silence. Then, the doorknob turned as the door was pushed open.
In the darkness, he could hear the approaching footsteps.
Youyou furrowed his brows slightly and closed his eyes, but he did not close them completely. Through the slits, he saw a slender figure slowly walking towards his bed and then sitting down quietly by it.
“Youyou..”
A pale and unadorned hand slowly caressed his cheek and tucked his hair behind his ear.
Yun Shishi sized up his sleeping face and said with some heartache, “Why have you lost so much weight?”
