Li Muhan found it a little unbelievable. He had no feeling at all about this sound or this taste.
But there was an innate feeling that made him want to get close to this woman.
"I really want to say sorry to you, Li Muhan, but I feel that I may not even be qualified to say this. I left you nothing, companionship, growth, blessings, and teachings. All I left you was the nutrition delivered by the umbilical cord in those short three months."
"I..." Li Muhan's emotions broke down.
He had thought about this scene countless times, but now that the moment had really come, he didn't know what to say.
"I don't know... I don't know how to face you. I... I don't even know what you look like..."
"I shouldn't exist in your heart... Even now, if I can see what you look like now and see you safe and sound, I will be satisfied."
"...but you didn't let me see you. You're very selfish."
"Because... I don't deserve it. You have to keep going on in the future, but you won't be alone. My child is the best... He is no worse than anyone else. You are my pride, my eternal pride..."
"Don't stay up late. Although your body is different from that of ordinary children, staying up late will disrupt your biological clock, which is quite unscientific."
"Also, try to order less takeout. You can obviously cook, why do you always order takeout? This kid..."
"You have to get a college diploma. No matter what you want to do in the future, a diploma is very important."
"Don't be so gentle to everyone, silly boy. Your gentleness will hurt those girls' hearts."
"I have seen the child. She is very pretty and kind, but a little short and not very smart. But it doesn't matter. As long as you like her, I like her too. You will always be my pride."
The woman's chattering made Li Muhan feel sad.
These may be annoying nagging that ordinary people hear.
It seemed to him like an unattainable dream.
"I can... call you... "
wow-
The umbrella disappeared at this moment, and Li Muhan's pupils suddenly widened.
He stood up and turned his head.
The word "mother" finally stopped in the throat and did not come out.
Because behind him, there was no one, only the pale nothingness.
"...You are so selfish..."
Chapter 702 Just look at the present moment
A drizzle began to fall from the sky of the Styx at some point.
The shadows of the black wolf and the blue dragon intertwined and entangled, then disappeared at the other end of the sky.
Li Chengtian was lying on the bank of the River Styx. He no longer had the strength to stand up.
After his fate was distorted for many years, he collapsed and fell into madness.
After the flame of madness was extinguished by the cold water of Li Muhan, he fell into emptiness and deathly silence.
Li Chengtian had a blank expression on his face as he looked at Li Muhan, who was panting, grabbing his collar and pressing on him.
It was like returning to the person he was many years ago.
"Is An An really still alive?"
"I've said it before, she's still alive and well, she's doing fine now, and I'll make sure she gets better and better in the future."
Li Muhan said with a trembling voice.
"The last time I saw..."
"Oh, sorry, that's what I changed, don't stare at me! Just listen to my explanation!"
So Li Muhan told Li Chengtian about the star-studded incident and how he turned into Li Lingan to hook up Zhong Huaian and the plague.
Here, both of them sat by the River Styx, gazing at the dark horizon, with raindrops falling on their heads.
When he heard Li Muhan say that everyone liked Li Lingan, he saw a hint of pride on Li Chengtian's face.
"Is An An okay now?"
"She is in the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau. Chang Yue and Lin Ze love her like their own daughter. Not only them, but everyone in the Special Management Bureau likes An An."
"...So, Li Zhiqiu's words finally came true. An An returned to where she should be, and everyone will love her."
"It has nothing to do with that bastard's fart."
Li Chengtian smiled and said, "He is your father."
"I don't have a father, that bastard. To be honest, I used to dream of meeting my father and my mother. I saw the shadows of you and Aunt Lu Xue in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, and I thought you were my parents. At that time...well, I even called you dad."
"Hahahahaha."
Li Chengtian laughed out loud, and it hurt a little as the wound was pulled.
He covered his waist.
"The phantom in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons has nothing to do with me. When Li Ling'an merged with you, her mother's umbilical cord still remained. That was Lu Xue's last protection for her daughter."
"Li Muhan, don't you think humans are amazing? Even with such frail bodies, they can rely on the last remnants of their flesh to build a final peaceful place for their children. And you... have also grasped the tenacity of humans very well, replicating that trace of obsession and protection for children into your own Ten Thousand Demons Palace."
"I know." Li Muhan lay on the ground, looking at the sky, letting the raindrops wet his face.
"So I don't hate anyone, and I don't blame anyone. Although I was born surrounded by malice, whether it's you, Aunt Lu Xue, An An, Lin Ze, my adoptive parents, or even that bastard Chang Yue, everyone loves me. Hatred can't pierce my heart because it's wrapped in your love."
Li Chengtian sighed and shook his head.
"I have never loved you, Li Muhan. I have always wanted to kill you because I think you killed my daughter and wife."
"Don't make excuses, uncle. Do you really think I haven't remembered it yet?"
Li Muhan put his hands behind his head and looked at Li Chengtian beside him.
"When I was five years old, I was rescued from Mendarosa and put into an orphanage. The children there were afraid of me and the teachers didn't like me, so I was always alone, but that day, June 6th."
"A dishevelled, scruffy middle-aged man came to the orphanage. He rode a worn-out bicycle and carried a plastic bag to meet me at the gate of the orphanage."
Li Chengtian was silent, and seemed to be lost in his memories.
"I was quite scared of him at first because his eyes were very cold and scary, but he took out a bowl of steaming hot noodles from a box from a plastic bag and handed it to me."
"You know, even when I went to a normal orphanage, they only gave me leftovers to eat."
“And that bowl of noodles… was the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life.”
"We sat on the steps, and the uncle said nothing as he watched me finish my noodles. He then told me 'Happy birthday, Li Muhan'."
"So June 6th, that's my birthday, which is today..."
“That’s why I like eating noodles so much…”
Li Chengtian's body shook, and then he smiled bitterly: "You are really a little monster. You remember things from when you were five years old so clearly."
"I had forgotten it at first, but thanks to you, I remembered everything. That figure that I always see wherever I go, the uncle who sharpens knives in my hometown, and the uncle who pushed a bicycle and sold candied haws at the door when I was studying in a small county town."
Li Muhan propped himself up and sat up, then turned to look at Li Chengtian.
"And the uncle who opened a ramen restaurant near my school after I went to college."
"Thank you...Uncle Li, thank you for always watching over me silently."
The cold raindrops poured down on their heads and mixed with the man's tears.
It seems that his life is not meaningless.
At least…the kid didn’t actually become a demon.
rustling --
The sound of metal dragging on the ground slowly rang out from the original place.
Li Muhan turned his head and saw a girl in white slowly walking towards him, dragging a long knife.
"Go do what you should do, Li Muhan."
Li Chengtian didn't look back, as if he knew who was coming behind him.
Li Muhan nodded slowly.
"Uncle Li, this time, don't run away anymore. Let's make it clear, okay?"
"Get lost now."
Li Chengtian waved his hand.
Li Muhan looked at the girl again and nodded.
The girl smiled and waved at Li Muhan.
"Go."
......
When the knife was stuck next to Li Chengtian, the girl slowly sat down.
"You owe me an apology."
Lin Ze looked towards the Styx and said with a smile.
"You've let it go, I can feel it, this apology is meaningless."
"Everything should have a beginning and an end, right?"
"Was there any meaning in my leaving back then?"
"What do you think?"
"I want to know it from you."
“We know each other’s hearts and minds, and we wish to share this love forever.” Lin Ze smiled and recited the last two lines of the poem: “If we could have done those things together back then, gone to restaurants we’ve never been to, played badminton, and you gave me a skirt, let’s write this poem together again and release the Kongming lantern.”
"If you really do these things, then perhaps your leaving will become meaningless."
"After all..." Lin Ze lifted his hair slightly: "Leaving the one you love, no matter what the reason, is a sign of cowardice."
Li Chengtian remained silent.
"You were the one who gave that poem to Li Muhan, right?" Lin Ze asked again.
"Ah."
"You didn't stop him from snooping into your memory, or you hoped to use the power of the past to see if the ending would be different if you really did those things, right?"
"Ah."
"It's a shame nothing has changed."
"Because I live in the past, and you..." Li Chengtian turned his head for the first time and looked at Lin Ze's profile.
"You live in the future, Lin Ze."
"So, you owe me an apology, Li Chengtian."
Lin Ze also turned around slowly and looked at Li Chengtian with a smile.
"...I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye."
"That's enough." Lin Ze smiled and stood up: "For me, this ending is enough."
She drew her sword and walked towards the temple.
"We are completely over, Li Chengtian." Lin Ze stopped and said, "This time, you don't owe me anything."
"What a childish tone..." Li Chengtian smiled helplessly: "My time has come, right?"
Lin Ze did not stop or look back.
"Don't look at the past, don't look at the future, look at the present, at least stand by that child's side when the final end comes."
