Ji Zhixiu slowly opened the bathroom door.

Then he looked up and saw the person huddled in the corner, helpless and pitiful.

The whole body exudes the aura of loneliness.

Jiang Mian hugged her knees. When she heard the movement, she raised her head slightly, her beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with tears.

Tears fell down his face drop by drop, hitting Ji Zhixiu's heart.

Jiang Mian quickly buried his head on his knees and said nothing.

Ji Zhixiu squatted down and knew that she was crying.

He whispered, “Why did you come back without saying a word?"

"Don't want to talk to me?"

"I've been looking for you for a long time."

No matter what Ji Zhixiu said, Jiang Mian didn't even raise his head.

She cried quietly.

Ji Zhixiu cried so hard that his heart almost broke.

He hugged Jiang Mian and sighed softly, "Are you trying to kill me?"

Jiang Mian raised his head and moved his lips, "Let's go."

Her eyes were empty, dazed, and suffocating.

Ji Zhixiu raised his fingertips to wipe away her tears, but new tears soon flowed out.

It's like I can't wipe it all off.

Jiang Mian held his arm and begged him in a voice as if she was being run over by a grinding wheel, "Just go, okay?"

She just wanted to be alone.

She always thought that she had not seen her father since she was a child, maybe because her father died or her parents divorced.

So grandma was afraid that she would be sad and never mentioned it.

But she never thought about her identity as an illegitimate daughter.

She had already remembered.

She remembered everything including her mother's brutal suicide by cutting her wrists in front of her.

Ji Zhixiu held her face and said, "It's my fault. It's my fault. I shouldn't have hidden it from you."

Jiang Mian shook his head.

"Don't keep it in your heart. Talk to me when you're sad, okay? I'll be with you." He took the trouble to wipe away her tears.

The movements are gentle and extremely caring.

Jiang Mian lay on his shoulder, and tears quickly wet his shoulders.

The cold wetness touched him.

She cried loudly, "I...I saw the news from before..."

Ji Zhixiu frowned, "Huh?"

"When I was ten years old, my mother brought me to Kyoto to recognize my family. But that man did not accept us as mother and daughter. He said that he had a family, and my mother should not have given birth to me without telling him."

She spoke slowly and painfully.

"I still remember that day in the coffee shop, the two of us had a bad conversation. He was my mother's first love, but in the end he broke up with my mother... My mother didn't want to accept this fact, thinking that she would never give birth to me. Just to make him change his mind..."

"Actually, it's not...it's not..." Jiang Mian bit her lip.

"My mother was devastated. When she returned to the rental house, she scolded me for being useless... I couldn't let him accept us as mother and daughter..."

Ji Zhixiu patted her shoulder and listened to her silently.

"Then...in front of me, he cut his wrists and committed suicide...a lot of blood...all over the ground..."

"I stood there stupidly, not knowing what to do, until a neighbor passing by saw me and called the emergency number..."

"Because of this incident, the rental house even appeared on a small page in the Kyoto newspaper. I just remembered it, I already remembered it..."

Ji Zhixiu's heart was shocked.

He guessed that Jiang Yumei should have committed suicide, but he never thought that she would commit suicide in front of Jiang Mian.

No wonder, no wonder, she couldn't remember more memories about her mother.

Who can remember such a painful thing clearly?

The body's defense function made Jiang Mian, who was shocked at the time, forget about it.

At the same time, it left the sequelae of headache.

He was extremely distressed.

Jiang Mian's lips trembled, "I was brought back to Jiangnan from the hospital by my grandmother. Since then, my head has hurt from time to time. Later, as I grew up, the number of headaches became less and less."

"My grandma never mentioned my mother in front of me, and I was afraid that my grandma would be sad, so I didn't mention it either. Over time, I have forgotten how my mother died..."

She realized today that she was missing a piece of memory.

The lost memory in her mind was tormenting her repeatedly and reminding her.

Ji Zhixiu's voice was hoarse, "That's not your fault. You were just a child at that time."

Jiang Mian shook her head with tears in her eyes, "I just..."

She just couldn't accept this fact.

Every keyboard comment on the Internet sprinkled a pinch of salt in her heart.

If she had a choice, would she still want to come to this world in this capacity?

She won't.

Jiang Mian rolled his eyes and started to get up from the ground.

Ji Zhixiu helped her up.

Jiang Mian pushed him out, "You go back, I want to stay here for a few days."

Ji Zhixiu stood still and said in a deep voice, "How many days will we stay?"

She raised a face full of tears and said, "Is it okay if I want to die?"

"Jiang Mian!" Ji Zhixiu called out her name in a sharp tone.

The two people's chests were heaving due to huge emotional fluctuations.

Jiang Mian lowered his head and stared at the ground, his mind going blank.

She felt sorry for the words that came out of her mouth.

After a long time, she said in a very soft voice, "You already knew that my mother was dead, but you didn't tell me."

"I don't want you to feel sad." Ji Zhixiu paused and explained.

She nodded, "I know, I don't blame you. I just blame myself."

"Have you seen the comments online?"

"They said my mother deserved to die for destroying other people's families."

"They said I shouldn't be alive in this world."

"I am a bit tired."

She was tired and she didn't know what to say.

Every word he spoke seemed to have exhausted all his energy.

Jiang Mian licked his dry lips, as if thinking to himself, "What is there about me worthy of your love?"

"Didn't you remember it already? Then why didn't you remember me?" Ji Zhixiu's throat tightened.

"I have also been to Jiangnan." He reminded.

"When I was fifteen years old, Yeyi's mother came to force me to have a baby. My mother took me to Jiangnan. She rented a house right next to your house. Have you forgotten?"

Jiang Mian shook his head, "I forgot."

She didn't want to think about what she remembered or what she couldn't remember.

Ji Zhixiu was obviously disappointed.

He closed his eyes, then opened them and walked out, "You can live here, I will come to see you. You... call me anytime."

Until there was a sound of closing the door.

Jiang Mian was convinced that he was gone, and then fell to the ground, leaning against the wall, crying again.

As soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with those lingering images.

Ten years old... neighbor... has she seen it?

Jiang Mian covered his head, it hurt...

...

Shen family.

Shen Muyuan picked up Shen Tingyu from the airport.

The two got into the car.

Shen Muyuan had received the news long ago and knew that the treatment was not going well.

He didn't ask about his condition, but instead asked, “I'm going home soon. Is there anything you want to eat?"

Shen Tingyu couldn't help laughing, "Brother, why didn't you ask me any questions? Don't you want to know why I came back suddenly?"

"The doctor has already told me."

"Okay," Shen Tingyu pretended to be relaxed, "It's okay, brother, I will go over there when we find a treatment."

Her condition is obviously much better than before. She went abroad and is full of confidence in the treatment of her condition.

Shen Muyuan patted her palm, "That's right, relax. Your mentality is very important. No matter what happens, I will be there. If it never gets better, I will be your eyes forever. I have also contacted you. Some of my friends abroad and some classmates specialize in this area. When the time comes, there will definitely be a way to get better."

Shen Tingyu smiled and said, "I now accept this fact peacefully and believe that I will get better. But brother, if you are so kind to me, what will my future sister-in-law do? Aren't you going to be jealous?"

Shen Muyuan laughed, "Your brother doesn't even have a girlfriend. Is it too early to say this now?"

"It's getting late, it'll be a matter of time. Mom might have already started to fall in love with you."

"Then find a sister-in-law who is really good to you."

Seeing that his sister was so lively and not as decadent as before, Shen Muyuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

The brother and sister talked and laughed all the way home.

The maid sent the suitcase upstairs.

As soon as Shen Muyuan returned home, he was the first to shout, “Yuantou!"

"Meow~" came a meow in response.

Shen Tingyu was stunned, "Brother, what's your name?"

When Shen Muyuan saw the cat, he couldn't help but smile.

He tore off the cat strips, picked up the cat and fed it, "Yuan Tou, the Maine Coon cat I raised before, I have already named it, Yuan Tou."

"Why round head?"

Shen Muyuan looked unnatural, and felt a little lucky that the little girl couldn't see him, "I think this name is easy to remember, what's the matter?"

"Nothing. I just think my brother likes this cat very much."

"What? Are you still jealous? Are you jealous of a cat? You are my sister." Shen Muyuan put down the round head and helped her sit down.

Shen Tingyu twitched the corner of his mouth, is it such a coincidence?

Le Bi, played by Jiang Mian in "The Legend of Lock Heart", also has two cats, one named Yuan Tou and the other Yuan Nao.

Shen Tingyu grabbed his hand and said, "I'm not jealous. When my brother marries a sister-in-law, there will be more people who can love me together."

Shen Muyuan touched her head and said, "These are things that haven't happened yet. Isn't it good for my brother to love you?"

"Of course it's better if more than one person loves me together," Shen Tingyu said coquettishly, "What kind of person does my brother like? Tell me, maybe I can introduce two to my brother."

Shen Muyuan paused, "I never thought about it. As you know, I have been busy studying clinical careers."

Shen Tingyu squinted her eyes. Did she never think about it or did she dare not think about it?

"No, no, no, brother must think of one!" She did her best to act coquettishly like a little girl.

Shen Muyuan was so troubled by her that he had no choice but to say, “Everything is fine, just be considerate."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple!"

"Okay! I'll introduce it to my brother right away!" As she said that, she took out her cell phone and was about to make a call.

Shen Muyuan couldn't help but hold her hands down, "Why are you in such a hurry? You just came back and you don't have a good rest. Don't forget, the doctor said not to overwork yourself. Be careful with your eyes."

Shen Tingyu was just showing off, but after hearing this, he went downhill, "Okay, just listen to brother. I'll remember first, as soon as I meet him, I will introduce him to him!"

Shen Muyuan scratched the tip of her nose with his finger, smiling fondly, "You!"

Shen Tingyu smiled and said as if unintentionally, "By the way, brother, have you read the entertainment news? I heard from the servant who took care of me in the hospital that brother Zhixiu's little wife seems to be on the Internet..."

"What does it seem like?" Shen Muyuan asked quickly.

Shen Tingyu stared at the expression on his face and said slowly, “The Internet says that she is an illegitimate daughter, and they also say that she is a resource person, and everyone is telling her to get out of the entertainment industry."

"What?! What's going on?" Shen Muyuan suddenly stood up and then sat down again.

Realizing that his little sister couldn't see him, he didn't need to be so nervous at all.

"I don't know either. You also know that I can't see, brother. I just heard what others said."

Shen Muyuan nodded, "I understand."

He took out his mobile phone, opened Weibo, and started reading it in front of his little sister.

Then he frowned, these people are talking! It's so ugly!

Is she sad now?

I wonder if Asiu is with her?

Shen Muyuan put away his phone and said, "I'll go upstairs to get a document. Do you want to go upstairs and take a rest?"

Shen Tingyu shook her head, "No need, brother, I want to sit down for a while first."

"Okay, if you need anything, call the servant and I'll come right away." Shen Muyuan stood up and said.

"Uh-huh!"

When he turned around, Shen Tingyu stared at his back going upstairs.

Get a document?

Can't you find a maid? Why go there yourself.

Or should I make a phone call behind her back?

Shen Tingyu stood up from the sofa and whispered, “Xiao Cui, help me upstairs."

The servant quickly came over to support her, "Slow down, miss."
