After Xia Xiaoxiao reorganized the property left by Xia Yuheng, he still lived in a small apartment with Cai Kaiqi.

This apartment was the first small house that Xia Yuheng bought for Cai Kaiqi when his career was beginning to improve. When I bought it, the living environment and supporting facilities around the apartment were very good, but after so many years, the house was a little old, and the bad environment was not as good as before, but I didn't expect it to be used for so many years.

Cai Kaiqi and Xia Xiaoxiao are not picky, they live wholeheartedly, and the two mothers and daughters rely on each other and take care of each other, which adds a little warmth to the crowds in the big villa in the past.

Perhaps, this is also the main reason why Xia Xiaoxiao has returned the Xia family villa to its name, but would rather transform it into a national style photography studio than move back.

It is enough to leave a "do not forget".

Xia Xiaoxiao saw that Zhuo Jiali was a little tired, so she went home a little earlier than usual. There is no one at home, so it is estimated that Cai Kaiqi went to the market to buy vegetables.

Since the servants are gone, Cai Kaiqi has always taken care of Xia Xiaoxiao's daily life.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt sorry for Cai Kaiqi, and wanted to hire an hourly worker to help her after her business improved, but she politely refused, saying that it was better to have something to do at home than to do nothing, so Xia Xiaoxiao had to follow her.

Usually Xia Xiaoxiao wanted to help Cai Kaiqi with housework at home, but she was basically stopped by Cai Kaiqi and asked her to rest. Once Xia Xiaoxiao insisted, Cai Kaiqi joked, "The daughter is outside, the mother is inside, the mother and daughter are invincible in the world."

Xia Xiaoxiao couldn't help it, so Cai Kaiqi was happily busy at home.

As a result, leaving the Xia family's villa, Xia Xiaoxiao still looked like a little princess held in the palm of her hand.

Xia Xiaoxiao returned to her small room, bored and remembered Zhuo Jiali's strange question, anyway, she had nothing to do, so she opened one drawer by one and rummaged through the purple heart-shaped pendant in the photo.

After searching for a while, I finally turned over an object that had no impression at the bottom of a jewelry box.

Xia Xiaoxiao took the pendant in his hand and rubbed it carefully, only to see that the pendant was the size of a one-yuan coin, which was made into the shape of a heart.

Xia Xiaoxiao flipped the pendant to the back, but saw that there were two clearly visible letters engraved on it - "QX", she counted all the famous and unknown designers in the jewelry design industry, and she didn't remember which initials were these two letters.

Xia Xiaoxiao really didn't pay attention to it before, but now that she was picked up by Zhuo Jiali, coupled with the mysterious letters on the back of the pendant, she had to pay more attention to this special jewelry, so she put it in her trouser pocket, ready to wait for Cai Kaiqi to come home and ask again.

It was already dark, Cai Kaiqi still didn't go home, Xia Xiaoxiao was secretly anxious, took out his mobile phone and was about to call her to ask when she would return.

At this time, Xia Xiaoxiao's mobile phone rang suddenly, and she looked at a string of unfamiliar numbers flashing on the mobile phone screen, and her right eye jumped wildly for no reason.

"Hey, who is it?"

Xia Xiaoxiao suppressed the inexplicable uneasiness that suddenly arose in his heart.

"Are you Cai Kaiqi's family?"

On the other end of the phone was an unfamiliar woman's voice.

"I am. ”

Xia Xiaoxiao's heart became more and more panicked.

"I'm from Gaoning People's Hospital, Ms. Cai rolled down the stairs and suffered an intracranial hemorrhage and was sent to the hospital, you should come to the hospital quickly, you may ...... if you are late."

Although the other end of the phone is accustomed to seeing life and death, there are still some words that cannot be opened at this moment.

Xia Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that the whole person shook violently, and she quickly silently recited "can't fall down" in her heart before she barely stabilized, and she couldn't wait to put on her wings and fly to the hospital immediately.

After Xia Xiaoxiao got out of the car, he ran around the hospital like crazy. The detailed description of Cai Kaiqi's situation by the medical staff on the phone just now was played in her mind as clearly as a movie screen.

Cai Kaiqi is old after all, and she suddenly encountered the drastic changes of the Xia family, which made her body unable to bear it, and then deteriorated. Not long after the incident, Cai Kaiqi fainted on the street for no reason, and was sent to the hospital by kind passers-by only to find out that he had advanced lung cancer. Cai Kaiqi knew that there was no cure, and he didn't want to tell Xia Xiaoxiao to make her sad, so he silently supported Xia Xiaoxiao's side, took care of her with the remaining strength of his life, and did everything himself, unwilling to fake it to others. Just in the afternoon, when she was buying Xia Xiaoxiao's favorite dish at the market, Cai Kaiqi was about to walk down the stairs, but he didn't feel dizzy again, so he rolled down 20 stairs with vegetables.

Xia Xiaoxiao ran wildly all the way, but when he arrived at the door of Cai Kaiqi's ward, his hands were so shaky that he couldn't push open the gentle door.

Finally stepping into the suffocating space in the door, Cai Kaiqi, who was full of tubes in the intensive care ward, lay quietly on the hospital bed, his breath was quite weak.

Xia Xiaoxiao staggered and knelt beside Cai Kaiqi's bed, the muscles on his face twitched, his mouth was open but he couldn't make a sound.

At this time, Xia Xiaoxiao seemed to have returned to the darkest night in the Xia family's villa a year ago, cold and helpless.

Xia Xiaoxiao trembled and held Cai Kaiqi's hand, and his mouth trembled for a long time before he squeezed out a few words.

"Mom...... Mommy ......"

Cai Kaiqi struggled to half-open his eyes, staring at Xia Xiaoxiao vigorously, and his mouth wearing an oxygen mask also opened hard. Xia Xiaoxiao hurriedly put her ear close to her mouth.

"Xiao ...... Xiao, Mom...... Mi Bu ...... No...... Accompany you...... later...... Want...... Depend on...... You ...... yourself Yourself, good ...... Good to live...... Go. ”

"Why is this happening? Why is this happening?"

Xia Xiaoxiao's voice was hoarse, and tears finally blinded her eyes.

"People...... All...... There is a self-...... Your own life, no need to ...... Don't be too ...... Sad ......"

Xia Xiaoxiao was emotional, and the purple heart-shaped pendant in her trouser pocket also slipped out due to the shaking of her body, and fell to the ground with a "pop".

Xia Xiaoxiao was led by the sound, picked up the pendant and wanted to stuff it back into his trouser pocket.

Unexpectedly, Cai Kaiqi, who was so angry, saw that the pendant's eyes lit up, and the whole person didn't know where the strength came from, and grabbed Xia Xiaoxiao's hand holding the pendant.

"Hold...... It...... Go to add the national ...... Find your ...... Biological mother...... Yuan...... Autumn...... Kasumi ......"

For so many years, Cai Kaiqi seems to have forgotten the fact that Xia Xiaoxiao is not her biological daughter, and asked herself, she loves Xia Xiaoxiao like her biological mother, but she didn't expect that there would be a day when this secret would be revealed to the world.

Xia Xiaoxiao roared in his head, wondering if this was just Cai Kaiqi's nonsense when he was dying, and stayed in place for a while.

Cai Kaiqi's misty eyes lingered on his beloved daughter, and he reluctantly let go of Xia Xiaoxiao's hand, and tried to touch her face again, but his hand hung down weakly when he reached out in the air.

With the last teardrop that slipped from the corner of Cai Kaiqi's eye, the ECG monitor returned to a long sigh.

Xia Xiaoxiao watched Cai Kaiqi come to the end of his life in front of him, his eyes were dull, he knelt woodly, his mind was blank, and the places he saw slowly changed from bright to dark, and then he lost consciousness.
