Chapter 114: Farewell
"Xinwan, I'm sorry..."
Bai Mu's voice was very soft, for fear of disturbing Tang Xinwan, but his tone was full of pain...
Oh, yes! How can Shiraki not be in pain? He has only been with Tang Xinwan for less than a year! Thinking of the two of them looking forward to the future together, Shiraki was very heartbroken...
This bad news came so suddenly!
How could he really be willing to part with Tang Xinwan?
However, with the facts in front of him, no matter how reluctant he is, what can he do? Compared to these, he was even more reluctant to let Tang Xinwan suffer with him! So I'll take it all by myself!
"Hmm..."
Tang Xinwan, who was asleep, seemed to notice something, and her good-looking eyebrows wrinkled tightly, but she didn't wake up in the end.
Bai Mu hesitated for a moment, then slowly lowered his head and kissed Tang Xinwan lightly on the forehead. It was only at this time that Tang Xinwan's tightly wrinkled eyebrows were stretched again, and the corners of her mouth rose, outlining a beautiful arc...
Carefully helping Tang Xinwan cover the quilt, a trace of determination flashed in Bai Mu's eyes, and he did not disturb the sleeping Tang Xinwan, and Bai Mu walked out of the door without looking back.
Walked quickly to the door of the old dean's room, the old dean's room light was still on, obviously after today's events, the old dean was also a little difficult to sleep. Shiraki took a deep breath and knocked softly on the door.
"Who?" Soon, the voice of the old dean came from the room.
"Dean, it's meβ" Shiraki said softly.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and the old dean seemed to sigh, and then said, "I knew you would come to me, come in..."
The moment he opened the door and saw the scene in the house, Bai Mu was stunned for a moment.
In the dim light, the old dean was sitting at the desk studying something, and in front of her was a thick pile of books. The paper of the book has been slightly yellowed, showing a heavy sense of age.
"Dean, what are you?" asked Shiraki suspiciously.
The old dean took off his glasses and pointed to the books on the table, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, "These are the research results left by your parents back then. There are some clues about this disease, and I will study and study it, hoping to help you..."
"My parents stayed?" Bai Mu was stunned for a moment, and then, there was a hint of hope in his eyes, "Then did you find it?" β
"Found it..."Having said that, the old dean was not as happy as expected, and after a pause, she continued: "There is a way, but if you say that the possibility of achieving it is very small..."
"Why?" The hope that had just ignited in Bai Mu's eyes was instantly shattered, and he couldn't help but ask, "Since there is a way, how can it not be realized?"
The old dean sighed and said, "The conditions required for this method are very harsh, and it requires a difficult operation and medical treatment. However, the current situation is that this drug has not been invented so far. And even if there were, with the current level of medical care, no one would be able to perform such a difficult operation..."
"Back then, your father was defeated in this operation..."The old dean shook his head, "According to your father's original idea, although there is no medicine to cure this disease, as long as the operation is successful, at least let your mother live for a longer period of time." It's a pity that fate didn't favor them and his wife..."
"That's rightβ" Shiraki was silent. After a long time, he pretended to be strong and smiled, and comforted, "Dean, don't worry too much. Although the current medical conditions do not allow it, maybe it will be enough to wait a few more years? I know my own body, no matter how bad it is, I can hold on for a while..."
"I hope so..."The old dean is not as optimistic as Shiraki, how easy is it to achieve this kind of thing?
"Dean, I have one more thing..."Shiraki muttered for a moment.
"What?"
"I want to pay a visit to my parents." Bai Mu stared at the old dean with burning eyes, this was the purpose of his coming to the old dean. After all, he has been searching for the whereabouts of his parents for a long time since he was a child, and now that he has finally gotten the news, how can he easily calm down?
Even though... This news is not good news... Deep down in Shiraki's heart, he was also very eager to see them.
"It's okay," the old dean nodded, "Then I'll take you there tomorrow." β
"No," Shiraki shook his head, "I want to go alone and leave tonight." β
"Tonight?" The old dean frowned, "Xinwan's side..."
"So, I want you to help me hide it first..."Bai Mu said, "Don't tell her about this matter first, how long can you hide it!" β
"Why are you doing this..."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After packing his luggage, Bai Mu took a deep look in Tang Xinwan's direction before turning around and leaving.
By the window, looking at the back of Bai Mu leaving, the old dean couldn't help but burst into tears. If it were possible, she would really be willing to exchange her old bones for the health of the child Shiraki, but...
"Kid, I hope you can cross this hurdle..."
After leaving the welfare home, Shiraki took the map given to him by the old dean and went straight to the station. His parents' mausoleums are in the middle of nowhere, in the countryside, where the former welfare home was located.
After sitting alone at the station all night, Shiraki finally waited for the first train.
Sitting on the bumpy bus, Shiraki looked out the window at the scenery that kept receding backwards.
In the past, Shiraki never thought about the future. Because in his opinion, it is better to look to the future than to cherish the present. But this time, for the sake of Tang Xinwan and the children in the welfare home, he had to think carefully about the future.
He was thinking about what he should do to make Tang Xinwan suffer a little less damage...
He was thinking about what would happen to the children in the orphanage after he was gone...
Welfare.
In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth, Tang Xinwan also gradually woke up in a deep sleep. The next moment, she subconsciously glanced at the location of Shiraki's bed. But then, there was a hint of panic in her heart.
Empty... What about Shiraki?
During this period of time, because of the tiring reason of work, Bai Mu generally got up later than Tang Xinwan. And Tang Xinwan is also used to seeing Bai Mu's appearance every day when she opens her eyes.
But how can this be the case today? Where did Shiraki go? Could it be that Shiraki got up earlier today?
Although she comforted herself like this in her heart, Tang Xinwan quickly got dressed and walked out of the door to find Bai Mu's figure, only when she saw Bai Mu could she feel at ease.
However, the reality quickly made Tang Xinwan sober up.
