Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 421 He never expected that what Ningning was going to tell him was about his mother, who might actually come back to life.

Because she was afraid of upsetting Henry, Awan didn't say anything more.

In the evening, after washing up, Awan went to bed to sleep.

Before she closed her eyes, she saw Henry packing their luggage, and it seemed as if Henry was doing all of this.

Henry always took good care of her and gave her the best.

Ah Wan felt very happy to have Henry around.

Slowly, Awan closed her eyes, and her breathing became steady.

Henry packed his luggage and sat down on the edge of the bed.

He looked at his wife, his emerald green eyes filled with guilt, sorrow, and fear.

He slowly reached out, wanting to touch Awan's face, but withdrew his hand just before he touched her.

No one knows how shocked and frightened he was when he saw the little boy named "Star".

She was terrified when she heard Awan say that she felt she should have a child.

He was afraid; he was afraid that Awan would regain her memories.

Although he knew that even if he allowed Awan to come to China, some things would still happen.

In the end, he might even lose Awan.

But seeing that Ah Wan had been longing to return to China for over a decade, and that Henry had been running away for over a decade, he could no longer run away.

That child named "Star".

Henry felt a sense of familiarity when he first saw it.

Henry slowly pulled something out of the inside pocket of his clothes.

If you look closely, it's a pocket watch.

It was a pocket watch, and the style looked like it was from more than ten years ago. He opened the pocket watch with his fingertips, and a black and white photograph pasted on the dial appeared in front of Henry's eyes.

That's a happy family photo of three.

In the photo, the man is wearing a military uniform, with handsome features, and looks at his wife with a very tender gaze.

If you look closely, you'll find that the woman in the photo is actually Ah Wan when she was young.

Between them, they were holding a boy who was a few years old.

The boy's features were seven or eight parts similar to the child named "Xingxing" I saw at the airport today.

This pocket watch was taken by Henry from Awan's neck.

Once I took it down, I secretly kept it for over ten years, never letting Awan see it.

Henry gripped the pocket watch tightly.

Countless times, he wanted to crush the pocket watch, but he held back when he thought of Awan.

After a long while, Henry put the pocket watch back into his inner pocket.

He gazed at Awan, who was fast asleep on the bed, and murmured softly, "Awan, Sang Yuwan, if you knew the truth, would you blame me?"

Sangyuwan, what a beautiful name!

Just like her, he fell in love with her at first sight and became hopelessly infatuated with her.

That also made him a thief.

Ah Wan, don't blame me, I just love you too much.

Meanwhile, on her way back, Gu Jianing was still thinking about what Xingxing had said at the airport about seeing her grandmother.

After thinking it over, Gu Jianing called Sheng Zexi from the military region when she got home to ask if he would be coming back tonight.

"There is something I need to tell you when you get back."

"Okay, I'll go home early tonight."

Sheng Zexi returned in the evening.

When they returned, Chen's mother had just finished preparing dinner, and the family was about to eat.

Sheng Zexi then sat down and ate with them.

After dinner, Grandma Sang was in the living room with the children.

Sheng Zexi then followed Gu Jianing back to her room.

Gu Jianing asked, "Could you tell me more about what happened when your mother-in-law passed away?"

Sheng Zexi was stunned. He hadn’t expected Ningning to call him back because of this.

Although he had some doubts, Sheng Zexi knew that Gu Jianing wouldn't speak without reason, so he spoke up. To be honest, the news of his mother's death was quite sudden.

"I had just started middle school then, and that day I was going home..."

That day after school, since neither of his parents were home, Sheng Zexi went back to the Sang family home.

Unexpectedly, upon entering the Sang family home, they saw Sang's maternal grandparents crying, as well as Sang's father, Sheng Xinhao, with red eyes.

He was happy that his father was back.

But I didn't see my mother.

So I asked.

But the answer he received made Sheng Zexi feel like the sky had fallen.

His grandmother hugged him tightly and cried, saying that his mother had passed away.

Then Sheng Xinhao took out the ashes.

He recounted what had happened.

It turned out that a plague had broken out on the border where they were located, and their mother, Sang Yuwan, had unfortunately contracted the plague.

Sheng Xinhao sought treatment from many people, but in the end, he could only watch helplessly as his mother died.

Because it was the plague, and it was also on the border.

They couldn't even bring the bodies back.

Therefore, it can only be burned to ashes.

"...Do you know how devastated I was when I learned of my mother's passing?"

"I looked at the ashes and kept shaking my head, saying, 'That's not my mother, that's not my mother...'"

But even though he was unwilling to admit it.

My mother is dead, that's all.

never come back.

He never imagined that his farewell would be their last.

After his mother passed away, Sheng Zexi's life underwent a dramatic change...

Once upon a time, the three of them were a very happy family.

But everything changed after her mother died.

“Perhaps… that really wasn’t my mother-in-law…” Gu Jianing murmured.

Looking back, Sheng Zexi's emotions have calmed down considerably, but he still feels heartbroken when he thinks of his mother.

However, when he heard Gu Jianing's words, he frowned.

His eyes were full of confusion.

"Ningning, what do you mean by that?"

Gu Jianing grasped Sheng Zexi's hand, "You know, Third Brother is leaving the country today, so I took the kids to the airport to see him off, and then..."

Gu Jianing recounted the story of Xingxing's encounter with the person who resembled Sang Yuwan.

"...Brother Xi, you know that Xingxing and Yueyue are very smart, they have excellent memories, and they don't talk nonsense."

“Especially Xingxing, since he dared to say that it was his grandmother, it must be very similar.”

Actually, rather than saying they are similar, it's more accurate to say they are both in their twilight years.

That's why the stars are so certain.

"As you know, Xingxing and Yueyue were taken to the Sheng family's old house by your father-in-law and others before. Your father-in-law would often take them to look through your old photos, so..."

Sheng Zexi felt his throat was a little dry and his voice was slightly hoarse. "In other words, Xingxing thinks that the person in the photo is his grandmother."

That is, his mother?

At this moment, Sheng Zexi was filled with shock.

He never expected that what Ningning was going to tell him was his mother, who might actually come back to life.
He was dead for over a decade and then came back to life?
No, how can a dead person come back to life?

If that really was his mother, then she might not have died back then.

For a moment, Sheng Zexi's feelings were extremely complicated.

I couldn't tell if it was a pleasant surprise or a question.
