Chapter 49 49. Live well

Chen Xiangyin felt a damp and cold mist rising in the room, and shuddered unconsciously.

Li Jingcai stared at Wu Guihua more and more clearly with wide eyes, and knelt heavily on his knees.

"Mom!" Li Jingcai cried and hit his head on the ground.

It hurts to listen to the agarwood.

Wu Guihua turned her head sluggishly, her tone of voice was slow and the ending was long: "After...cai..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!!"

Li Jingcai kept knocking his head, his forehead was covered with dust and blood oozed out.

"Jingcai..." Wu Guihua staggered toward Li Jingcai, her back bent, trying to stop him.

Li Jingcai kowtowed faster and faster. He felt dizzy when he stood up, and his body tilted and fell sideways.

Wu Guihua rushed towards him to hug him, but failed.

Li Jingcai knocked his head and subconsciously covered his head in pain. Looking at Wu Guihua's helpless hands, he seemed to have thought of something and wailed in even more pain.

"Mom! I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

Chen Xiangyin watched this tragic scene from a distance, squeezing his arm tightly with his fingers.

She knew that she was not the initiator of this tragedy, but she also played a role in it.

She guessed that Wu Guihua wanted to bring herself and Li Jingcai into trouble, and that Li Jingcai was interested in her.

But I can't figure out why it would be like this.

Chen Xiangyin felt confused as he looked at the two people who kept trying to embrace each other but couldn't touch each other.

Li Jingcai didn't really want Wu Guihua to die.

Impulsive?
  Are people really that stupid and fragile? Are you so easily swayed by your emotions to commit things you can't even understand?

This was not a question she could figure out.

Right now, the goal is to let Wu Guihua go on the road with peace of mind.

Chen Xiangyin whispered: "Aunt Wu, is there anything else you can't let go of?"

Wu Guihua slowly turned her face: "I can't let go... Jing Cai... Rongrong."

Chen Xiang asked in a dumb voice: "He killed you, aren't you angry with him?"

Li Jingcai burst into tears: "Mom, I'm sorry... I failed to live up to expectations, I was unfilial! I deserve to die!" After saying this, he slapped himself again and again.

Wu Guihua sluggishly intercepted his movements, but continued in vain: "Jingcai, don't blame yourself, what Mom is most afraid of is that you will not live well..."

Chen Xiang said unhappily: "Li Jingcai, is there any use in blaming yourself now? Aunt Wu's soul is weak and she won't be able to stay for long."

Li Jingcai cried and said, "What can I do..."

"Untie your knot! I told you that she couldn't take a breath before she died."

Turning to Wu Guihua again: "Auntie, I'm sorry I lied to you at the beginning."

If that nonsensical lie had not been told at the beginning, would everything later have happened?
  A trace of guilt made her breathless.

"He Chongtian and I are not husband and wife. We had a conflict due to a misunderstanding. We went to you separately to find out the details of the other party."

Li Jingcai rushed over excitedly, "Why did you lie to my mother! Why did my mother misunderstand you!"

"That's enough!" Chen Xiang dodged sideways, allowing Li Jingcai to miss.

"In the final analysis, you are still trying to repay foreign debts. It is your own inability to turn things around. My appearance only makes you resent your own incompetence even more!"

She felt guilty towards Wu Guihua, but felt disgusted towards Li Jingcai, "If you don't do business, do you want your mother to turn into a wandering ghost and slowly disappear into ashes?"

Li Jingcai turned around and saw Wu Guihua who was helpless in the darkness.

Chen Xiang asked: "Aunt Wu, what were your thoughts at the moment of your death?"

Wu Guihua looked at Li Jingcai with dull eyes: "I blame my inability to help Jingcai tide over the difficulties. If I could make money or get him a satisfactory wife, Jingcai wouldn't be angry with me."

With a plaintive sigh, Wu Guihua continued: "Jingcai is suffering, and I can't help, and I am adding to the trouble. Jingcai must hate me... I don't want... to be resented by my own son."

Agarwood makes the heart as cold as an ice cellar. Is this selfless love?

Li Jingcai knelt on the ground again, "Mom, I regret so much... How could I resent Mom! You are the person who loves me the most and is the best to me in this world. Without you, I am nothing..."

Wu Guihua breathed out a heavy breath: "It's okay if you don't blame me... If you can get some of Mom's insurance money, you can take Rongrong to eat roasted suckling pig at that restaurant during the Chinese New Year."

Roast suckling pig was something Wu Guihua saw when she was passing by while shopping for groceries one day. They cost eight hundred yuan each, and the smell was so fragrant that she drooled through the glass window.

As soon as I got home, I suggested to Li Jingcai that the whole family go there for a reunion dinner during the Chinese New Year and try out what the roasted suckling pig tastes like.

But Li Jingcai was bothered by his creditors, so he gave Wu Guihua a few words of reprimand, and then said self-abasingly: "With the conditions our family has, don't even think about eating food for rich people."

Li Jingcai cried until he lost his voice and froze on the spot.

Chen Xiangyin knew that he was heartbroken.

When Wu Guihua saw that he didn't respond, she added, "Jingcai...don't blame mom for not having the ability..."

Li Jingcai shook his head, his vision went dark, he fell to the ground and passed out.

"Jingcai!" Wu Guihua was worried.

Chen Xiang stepped forward: "Aunt Wu, humans and ghosts are on different paths. Your body keeps passing through him. He won't be able to bear it..."

Wu Guihua took two steps back as if she had done something wrong.

Chen Xiang lowered her eyes and whispered, "Aunt Wu, do you blame me?"

Wu Guihua shook her head: "It's a mistake... it's a mistake... I blame myself. After my wife left, I couldn't recover. I really wanted him to have a successful career... It's a pity that he doesn't like anyone. Only for you..." Wu Guihua stopped talking and looked at Li Jingcai's face.

Chen Xiangyin felt complicated and said no more: "You can go on your way with peace of mind."

Seeing that Wu Guihua was still reluctant to leave, she added, "He Chongtian gave him a lot of money. He also has skills and will no longer be poor. Rongrong, I will also take care of him."

Wu Guihua turned to look at Chen Xiangyin, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and her figure gradually became blurred.

Without care, there is no way to stay in this world.

Before disappearing, Wu Guihua's voice echoed in Shen Xiangyin's ears.

"If you feel guilty towards me, return it to Jingcai. Don't blame him, let him take good care of himself..."

She didn't finish her words and disappeared as if she had never appeared before, leaving only floating ashes.

But Chen Xiangyin knew that she wanted Li Jingcai to live well.

The cold night was long, Chen Xiangyin found a chair and sat down, lighting cigarettes one after another.

She really couldn't stand the suffering in this world.

When it was dark, Li Jing woke up.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I suddenly sat up and said, "Where's my mother!"

"Leave." Chen Xiangyin's voice was dry and weak, like an old man's.

Li Jingcai sat on the ground in despair, his eyes getting darker and darker.

Chen Xiangyin looked at him like trash and asked, "How could you do this?"

Li Jingcai cried out from his chest: "I didn't...my mother fell down...knocked her head."

He shook his head, as if he didn't want to admit it: "She reached out to me and asked me to help her...I didn't help her...she called my name one after another...I...I went upstairs."

Agarwood causes a heart rhythm disorder for a moment: The night when Wu Guihua was waiting to die, how scared and sad she was alone...

It is not illegal to refuse to save someone, but Li Jingcai will live in pain for the rest of his life.

Agarwood pressed the smoke and said: "The cycle of cause and effect, the evil you have done, I don't want to take revenge on Rongrong, so I ate the bitter fruit silently."

"What do you mean?"

"You have to spend the rest of your life atone for your sins. Every time you want to abandon life, fall into darkness, and be done with it. No matter how hard you suffer, even if you are just pretending, you have to "live well"..."

Li Jingcai understood. He couldn't face himself, his old father, or Rongrong.

But he had to face it. He was weighed down by guilt and pain, but he had to pretend that nothing had happened, like a normal and positive person, continue to play the role of father and son, and support the family.

You can't say you're miserable, you can't be depressed, you can't give up.

Chen Xiang walked out of the door and repeated in a somewhat sarcastic tone: "Li Jingcai, live well."

This sentence was like a curse that penetrated Li Jingcai's ears, making him unable to lift his shoulders.

Chen Xiangyin knew what Li Jingcai would endure for the rest of his life.

Because she was also "living well" like this, but what she endured was thousands of times more than Li Jingcai's.

After coming out of Biluo Xiaoya, Chen Xiangyin took out his mobile phone and sent a message to He Chongtian: "How are you busy?"
