Spending money on Xu Youning, Mu Sijue never blinked.

No one knows this better than Song Jiqing.

However, at this moment, Song Jiqing was still shocked.

"No matter what you need, how much money you need, you don't need to have any worries, just do what will make Youning wake up."

Mu Sijue, this is at any cost, as long as Xu Youning wakes up.

However, in order to make Xu Youning wake up, why did he spare any price?

"I know what to do." Song Jiqing's voice was lightened by the night, but it revealed obvious determination, "I will definitely do my best." ”

“……”

On the other end of the phone, Mu Sijue didn't say anything more.

The silence lasted for too long, and Song Jiqing couldn't help but look at his phone and found that the call was still continuing.

Mu Sijue forgot to hang up the phone?

He was about to hang up the phone when he heard Mu Sijue's voice:

"Ji Qing, thank you."

The sound that is neither light nor heavy, in Song Jiqing's feelings, has the power to cut through the night and the sky.

Mu Sijue's hands and eyes in G City are terrifying. Later, for Xu Youning, he gave up everything in City G and came to City A, and he still has extraordinary influence.

Few people can hear him say "thank you" with their own ears, right?

However, this is not the first time he has thanked Song Jiqing.

Song Jiqing heard it right, and his voice trembled a little. He was suppressed, and the tremor was hard to detect. But the night was too quiet, and Song Jiqing knew him too well, so he easily noticed it.

Song Jiqing could obviously grasp this handle and think about how to mock Mu Sijue in the future, but deep down, he only felt sad.

Mu Sijue used to be such a proud person, and later for Xu Youning, he made exceptions again and again.

Just for Mu Sijue's affection, Song Jiqing thought that he must let Youning wake up.

"When Youning wakes up, it's not too late for you to thank me." Song Jiqing paused and added in a pun, "I won't let you wait too long." ”

A smile rose on the corner of Mu Sijue's lips, and he made an agreement with Song Jiqing, and then hung up the phone.

Putting down the phone, Mu Sijue noticed that the corners of his eyes were wet, and his nasal cavity was also a little strange.

However, the corners of his lips were rising.

Complicated feelings, indescribable.

He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at the endless darkness of the night.

When Xu Youning had just fallen into a coma, he stood in front of the window countless times, feeling that the night was above his head, pressing down heavily, and the weight made him unable to breathe.

He once doubted that the night would never go away, and it would be difficult for his life to usher in light again.

If he hadn't thought about it, he might have really let himself fall into the abyss of despair.

Facts have proved that what Lu Boyan and Su Jianan said was not wrong.

As long as he waits, there is hope.

Now, the blackness is finally going to disperse. The glimmer of hope will soon be revealed.

Next, they can see the light again, right?

It's a wonderful feeling, like a withered plant being watered and becoming green and full of life.

A belated joy finally slowly evaporated from the bottom of Mu Sijue's heart, and the smile froze at the corner of his lips.

After Mu Sijue left the study, he did not go back to the room, but quietly entered the children's room of Niannian, helped the little one fold the quilt, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Tomorrow, as soon as the little one wakes up, he will tell him the good news.

Mu Sijue leaned over and kissed the little one, and was about to leave, when he suddenly saw the sleeping little guy stretching out his hand and grabbing it in the air, and called timidly: "Mother......"

The little one's hand paused in the air for a moment, then fell back to the bed, then frowned, and his voice changed to crying: "Mommy......"

The little guy dreamed, a very bad dream about Xu Youning.

Mu Sijue's heart twitched violently, as if there was an invisible hand in the darkness holding a sharp blade, slicing open his heart at once.

Usually, when anyone mentions Xu Youning to Niannian, the little guy is very optimistic, and even tells adults that his mother will wake up, so that everyone is very relieved of him.

Until today, Mu Sijue did not know that the little guy actually had fear hidden in his heart - although he firmly believed that Xu Youning would wake up, he was also afraid that Xu Youning would leave him forever.

"Mom's ......"

Nian Nian muttered again, her voice full of helplessness.

Mu Sijue grabbed the little guy's hand, and almost at the same time, the little guy subconsciously grabbed his hand.

Then the little one woke up.

Seeing Mu Sijue, Nian Nian was a little confused, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, and called out uncertainly: "Dad? ”

Mu Sijue didn't expect the little guy to wake up, so he got closer to the little guy, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and whispered to him: "Sleep." ”

Nian Nian finally confirmed that Dad was really in his room.

He rubbed his eyes, and by the dim light, he saw that Mu Sijue's eyes were a little red.

He sat up and touched Mu Sijue's face: "Dad, are you crying?" ”

Mu Sijue covered the little one's hand with his broad palm, felt the temperature of the little one's little hand with his cheek, and said, "No." ”

Nian Nian still believed that he was not mistaken, but he didn't say anything more, just drilled into Mu Sijue's arms: "Dad, hug." ”

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the little one got into his arms and hugged him tightly, burying his face in his chest, as if to comfort him silently.

After a long time, Nian Nian asked, "Dad, are you really okay?" ”

The little guy felt sorry for him—realizing this, Mu Sijue only felt that somewhere in his heart had become softer. He touched the little guy's head: "You tell Dad first, did you have a nightmare just now?" ”

Nian Nian hesitated for a moment, and said "um".

"What did you dream about?"

"I ...... I dreamed of my mother. Nian Nian said intermittently, "I dreamed that my mother woke up, but ...... She doesn't want me ......."

Sure enough, it was a dream related to Xu Youning, and Mu Sijue smiled helplessly: "Silly boy." After a pause of two seconds, he added, "But half of your dreams are right." ”

Nian Nian raised her head, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden: "Will Mom really not want me......?" ”

"Of course not." Mu Sijue did not hesitate and directly denied the little guy's idea, "Mom's favorite person is you, how could I not want you?" ”

"......" Niannian didn't speak, blinked her eyes, her long eyelashes were stained with tears, and she looked very aggrieved.

Mu Sijue touched the little guy's face and told him the truth: "It's Mommy who is about to wake up." ”

"......" Nian Nian was stunned for a moment, and the tears in his eyes immediately stopped spreading, and he stared at Mu Sijue with wide eyes, and confirmed with Mu Sijue whether this was true or not.

"Really." Mu Sijue said, "You can call and ask Uncle Song tomorrow." ”

"Can you fight now?!" Nian Nian almost jumped up from Mu Sijue's arms, and his eyes flashed with excitement, "I want to know now!" He didn't want to wait a second.

Mu Sijue hugged the little guy and signaled him to calm down: "It's too late now, we'd better not disturb Uncle Song." ”

Nian Nian thought about it, nodded, and said, "Then I'll call Uncle Song when I wake up tomorrow." As he spoke, he tilted his head and asked expectantly, "Can I hit as soon as I wake up?" ”

"......," Mu Sijue muttered for a moment, "depending on what time it is when you wake up." ”

"Hmm!" Nian Nian looked at Mu Sijue for a moment, a smile bloomed on his face, he got into Mu Sijue's arms, and called out again in a milky voice: "Dad." ”

Mu Sijue touched the little guy's head: "Are you happy?" ”

"Hmm!" Nian Nian nodded vigorously, his smile seemed to light up the night, "Happy!" ”

Mu Sijue kissed the little guy and said slowly, "Dad is also very happy." ”

Father and son looked at each other and laughed out loud.

This is the first time that the father and son have laughed so happily since they were sensible.

It was late at night, and there were still many hours before dawn, and Mu Sijue realized that he couldn't hold Niannian like this and smirk until dawn, let go of the little one, and said, "Go to bed first." We'll talk about the rest tomorrow. ”

Nian Nian grabbed Mu Sijue's shirt: "Dad, you sleep with me." ”

Mu Sijue pretended to hesitate for a moment before agreeing to the little one, and lay down with the little one on his little bed.

Nian Nian was very excited, and after lying down, he didn't feel sleepy at all, and pestered Mu Sijue to tell him about Xu Youning.

Mu Sijue knows the little guy too well, if he really tells him about Xu Youning, he will be even more unable to sleep.

"We'll have a day tomorrow, and we'll talk to you about mom tomorrow." Mu Sijue took a fairy tale book from the bedside table, "Now I'll tell you a story, okay?" ”

"But...... I ......"

Nian Nian hesitated and didn't want to say yes - he is more interested in his mother's affairs now!

"No, but." Mu Sijue interrupted the little guy without saying anything, "Children can only listen to fairy tales before going to bed. After a pause, he added, "Xiyu and Nono are the same. ”

Hearing that his brothers were like this, Nian Nian finally compromised, and said, "Oh", "Okay, then I'll listen to fairy tales." ”

Mu Sijue picked a random story and read it to the little guy slowly.

Nian Nian had no interest in the story itself, but when he heard Mu Sijue's voice, he could feel that his father was by his side, which made him feel very relieved.

In a sense of settled happiness, the little one slowly fell asleep.

Mu Sijue withdrew his hand and moved. The little guy used his arm as a pillow, and his arm was so sore, that he was unconscious.

Lying down with the little guy in his arms, Mu Sijue noticed that there was still a faint smile on the corner of the little guy's lips, and the corners of his lips unconsciously rose slightly.

Xu Youning was about to wake up.

In the future, there will be no more confusion and hesitation in their lives, and Niannian will no longer need to be secretly sad, he will continue to laugh like this.

For the first time in four years, Mu Sijue closed his eyes so reassuringly, and for the first time, he had a certain expectation for tomorrow and the future.
