Chapter 886 Auntie Youning, Goodbye (2)
It was in the parking lot.
After receiving a call from Mu Sijue, Ah Guang immediately arranged everything properly.
When Xu Youning took Mumu to the parking lot, everyone was already in place. One of Mu Sijue’s subordinates, who also worked as the driver, was standing beside the car door, ready to open the door for Ah Guang at any time and get Aunt Zhou back.
Ah Guang was usually straightforward, and now he finally realized that Xu Youning had a good relationship with the kid of the Kang family and that they needed time to say goodbye.
Ah Guang said sensibly, “Sister Youning, I can only give you five minutes. I’ll wait in the car.”
“Five minutes is enough. Ah Guang, thank you.”
After that, Xu Youning squatted down and looked at Mumu.
Mumu took the initiative to say, “Auntie Youning, goodbye.”
Xu Youning suddenly felt as if her heart had been cut open, and bitterness kept gushing out of the cut.
She didn’t dare to move or make a sound, for fear that the bitterness in her heart would find a way out.
Mumu touched Xu Youning’s face with his warm little hand and said, “Auntie Youning, I’ll miss you many times every day in the future.”
After that, the little boy leaned into Xu Youning’s arms and hugged her tightly.
Xu Youning’s eyes felt hot, and something was about to burst out of her eyes. She hurriedly closed her eyes and also hugged Mumu tightly.
They had spun Mumu’s stay out as much as possible.
They had said everything they wanted to say.
At this moment, Xu Youning and Mumu could only face the parting.
Xu Youning suddenly wanted to hold Mumu more tightly. She wanted to grab something at the last moment.
But at this moment, Mumu released Xu Youning and said, “Auntie Youning, I’m leaving. Don’t be sad. Granny Zhou will be able to come back after I leave.”
Xu Youning had no choice but to loosen her grip.
Mumu raised the corner of his mouth, kissed Xu Youning’s face with a smile as bright as usual, and then turned around to quickly get in the car.
Xu Youning opened her mouth and wanted to stop Mumu, but she understood that it was in vain at this time.
Her words were stuck at the edge of her lips, and she watched Mumu get in the car.
The driver slammed the door shut and ran back to the driver’s seat.
Mumu was really leaving.
Xu Youning suddenly came to her senses and ran to the car. Mumu seemed to feel it, and he rolled down the window and looked at Xu Youning.
“Mumu!”
Xu Youning called Mumu and ran very fast. She wanted to hold Mumu’s hand again and take a few more glances at him before he left.
Ah Guang helplessly understood that Xu Youning had a very good relationship with the kid of the Kang family. If they were allowed to get in touch with each other, Aunt Zhou would not be able to come back today.
He made up his mind and ordered the driver, “Drive, now!”
“Yes, Brother Guang!”
The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car took a sharp turn. Mumu gradually got out of Xu Youning’s sight.
Mumu suddenly shouted, “Auntie Youning!”
He stuck half of his body out of the window regardless of the danger. However, the car drove so fast that he only had time to take a single glance at Xu Youning. Then, he could only see increasingly more snowflakes.
He could no longer see Xu Youning again.
Mumu finally could not help leaning against the window and crying.
He tried his best to suppress his crying. Although his voice was not very loud, his constantly twitching shoulders betrayed his emotions.
The cold wind blew in with snowflakes, overwhelming the heater and growling in the car.
Ah Guang had planned to be cruel to the end, but when he saw the snowflakes falling on the kid’s head and heard the four-year-old kid sobbing, he still strangely felt bitterness in his heart.
He hesitated for a moment, but still pulled Mumu over, closed the window, and said, “You can cry, but don’t catch a cold. Otherwise, we’ll be accused of abusing a kid.”
Mumu did not speak. He turned his back to Ah Guang, curled up in the corner of the back seat, buried his face in the corner, and cried out loud.
Ah Guang unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and touched Mumu’s back. “Boy, drink some water.”
Rarely, Mumu ignored someone. Instead, he cried even louder.
Ah Guang had an illusion that he seemed to have bullied this kid.
He finally understood why many people liked this kid—he was too innocent. It would be fine if he didn’t cry, but when he cried, even the universe, if it was a living being, would probably reflect on whether he had hurt the kid or not.
However, he was Kang Ruicheng’s son after all.
Ah Guang was afraid that he would become softhearted, so he stopped himself from thinking further. He just asked the driver to fetch the box of tissues from the front of the car and handed it to Mumu.
Mumu took the tissues and held them in his arms, continuing to cry sadly.
He did not understand why his daddy was against Mr. Mu and why his daddy had kidnapped Granny Zhou.
But he knew that he would never see Xu Youning again.
If he still had a chance to see Xu Youning, something terrible must have happened.
Mumu was willing to believe that this was the last time for him to see Xu Youning.
Compared with seeing Xu Youning and living with her, he hoped that Auntie Youning and the baby in her belly could be happy.
He was still young and did not know how to make Xu Youning happy, but he knew how to make the baby happy.
If the baby stayed by his father’s side, he would be very happy.
Just like when he occasionally saw his daddy at a very young age. He was very happy then.
Ah Guang had been following Mu Sijue for so many years, and he had taught many adults a lesson and made them cry and scream sadly. He had thought that he was immune to all kinds of crying, but this kid’s crying made him… upset.
Yes, he was unwilling to admit that his heart ached.
Ah Guang took out a cigarette case and a lighter. He opened the cigarette case and shook it. A cigarette slipped out of it. Just as he was hesitating whether to light it or not, he heard a crying voice come.
“Sir, please don’t smoke.”
It was Mumu who was speaking.
Ah Guang set the cigarette case upright and slid it back. He looked at Mumu and asked, “Why?”
He thought that the kid would tell him that they were in the car and he must not smoke.
However, Mumu wiped away his tears and said, “Auntie Youning said that smoking is bad for health. Only fools do things that hurt themselves.”
Ah Guang felt funny, so he put the case back in his pocket and threatened Mumu with a serious look. “Did Auntie Youning tell you that crying is also bad for your health?”
“…” Mumu blinked his eyes, as if he had never heard of it but felt it was true.
Ah Guang continued, “You may not have heard an old saying that ‘Blood and tears come from the same source’, which means that shedding tears is equal to shedding blood. Tut-tut, look! How much blood you have shed?”
In fact, the true saying turned out to be “Blood and sweat come from the same source”. In order to scare Mumu, Ah Guang had already tried his best.
Mumu was scared and said honestly, “Auntie Youning never told me about it.”
At the thought of Xu Youning, Mumu felt so aggrieved that he burst into tears regardless of anything.
“Huh?” Ah Guang was stunned. “I told you crying is bad for your health, but why are you still crying?”
“Auntie Youning has never told me about it. I don’t want to listen to you.”
Mumu cried even more sadly. He buried his face in his palms, and his tears were bigger than the snowflakes outside. He felt so aggrieved as if his favorite toy had been snatched away.
Ah Guang could not help sighing.
If this little guy was so sad, then what about Xu Youning?
Actually, Xu Youning was as sad as Mumu.
Perhaps because of the high altitude, it always snowed fiercely at the top of the mountain.
Xu Youning stood in situ and looked in the direction Mumu headed for. The wind and snow were raging, and she felt that she was about to be drowned in the snowstorm.
At the last moment before Mumu disappeared, she only had time to see him sticking his head out of the car. Then the car quickly got out of her sight. She couldn’t even see Mumu’s face clearly.
Perhaps this was the last time for her to see Mumu.
Xu Youning squatted down feebly as if someone had stabbed her with a knife, and her tears were completely out of control.
She had long known that the day Mumu went away would come sooner or later.
However, it came in great haste. She didn’t even have enough time to say goodbye to Mumu.
Mu Sijue came back and saw Xu Youning squatting down in the snow and burying her face in her knees like an ostrich, with shoulders twitching from time to time. Without guessing, he knew that she was crying.
He walked over, took off his coat, and put it on Xu Youning’s shoulders. “Get up.”
His voice was always cold, like the falling snowflakes of no warmth.
But at this moment, maybe because Xu Youning was really sad, his voice was actually warm.
Xu Youning inexplicably became dependent on Mu Sijue. She looked up at him, crying and saying, “Mumu has left.”
Mu Sijue said faintly, “I know.”
Xu Youning knew very well that Mu Sijue had known it. Maybe he even met Mumu’s car on his way back.
She just wanted to tell Mu Sijue what made her sad.
She didn’t know when she started to be unwilling to endure all the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness by herself anymore.
However, Mu Sijue was more indifferent to it than she had imagined.
That’s right. It was Mumu who had left. Mu Sijue did not have a deep relationship with Mumu. How could Mu Sijue greatly react to it?
With that in mind, Xu Youning cried even harder.
Mu Sijue helped her up and said coldly, “He’s just going home. You don’t have to cry like this.”
“I…” Xu Youning choked with sobs. “I hate to part with him.”
Mu Sijue knew that Xu Youning was really sad.
Otherwise, Xu Youning would not express her feelings so directly.
Mu Sijue’s voice was a little softer, and he said, “No matter how much you hate to part with him, he doesn’t belong here. He will go back sooner or later. You treat him as your own biological son, but in fact, he is the child of the Kang’s family.”
Xu Youning wiped away her tears, lowered her head, and said nothing.
Mu Sijue held her hand and said, “Go back with me.”
Because Aunt Zhou was absent, the manager of the club arranged for another servant, in case that Mu Sijue and Xu Youning suddenly needed anything.
When the servant saw Mu Sijue and Xu Youning coming back, she greeted them and asked, “Mr. Mu, what can I do for you?”
Mu Sijue said, “Bring me a glass of hot water.”
Because she had stayed outside for too long, Xu Youning’s hand felt as cold as ice.
The servant quickly brought him a glass of steaming water. Mu Sijue directly handed it to Xu Youning and said, “Take it.”
Xu Youning mechanically took the glass of water and sat down on the sofa.
The temperature of the water was moderate. It was warm but not burning hot. However, the warmth could not be transmitted to the bottom of her heart.
Xu Youning shed tears again, and her tears fell into the water, leading to a small splash.
Mu Sijue frowned and said, “Xu Youning, enough.”
He knew that Xu Youning had affection for Mumu. Now that Mumu had left, he allowed Xu Youning to be sad.
However, Mumu was Kang Ruicheng’s son after all. He couldn’t just watch Xu Youning shed tears for Kang Ruicheng’s son without eating or drinking.
