Chapter 2890: Childhood friend: Endless fairy tales (End)
Actually in terms of filial piety, the one that Mu Li Chuan let down the most were his parents.
Because he didn’t leave a single word to them. In his world, when he knew that his life was about to fade, the only one he thought about arranging things for was Luo Qing Chen.
The butler made some tea before leaving. There was a faint scent of jasmine in the air.
“The only hope in life for me and the old master was Li Chuan.” Mother Mu gave a deep sigh, “But when he knew that he only had a few days left in his life, we realized that the only person that he cared about was you.”
“Sorry, auntie. I was too dumb and didn’t understand him……” Luo Qing Chen took a deep breath before reaching out to wipe the tears, “I didn’t stay with him when he needed me the most. I couldn’t be with him in his final moments.”
Actually, she blamed herself. If she had been more persistent, then they could have had a few beautiful days together……
Mother Mu shook her head and patted the back of his hand, “No……Qing Chen, do you know why we promised Li Chuan that we would guard this secret?”
“I……I don’t know.”
Normally speaking, when her son was sick like this, the first thing that a mother should think of was how to cure him and keep him alive.
But Lan Zhi told her that Mu Li Chuan wanted to euthanize him to save him the pain.
“Because the Ebola virus is no different from a terminal illness. The doctors said that contracting this illness was like being stabbed by needles on the inside and would be very painful……” Mother Mu gave a deep sigh and cried as she said, “But Li Chuan could endure it. Even if his body was trembling from pain, he kept enduring it……He said that there was something that he had to do and he couldn’t die yet.”
“Alright…..It’s already been three years. Why do you keep acting this way when you bring up our son?” Father Mu knitted his brows and said, “Qing Chen should know the truth, but she hasn’t had as much time to accept it like us……”
Although Father Mu scolded Mother Mu, Luo Qing Chen could see that his old eyes were also very red.
“Don’t be like this……” Luo Qing Chen pursed her lips and revealed a smile, “He definitely wouldn’t want to see you like this.”
Mu Li Chuan had nothing to say to his parents because he felt that he had lived a good life and he didn’t have any regrets.
And she……was most likely his only regret.
“Kou, kou, kou.” The housekeeper knocked on the door before coming in, “Master, madame, the doctor who performs the regular exams is here and waiting downstairs for you.”
Luo Qing Chen heard this and pursed her lips, “Uncle, auntie, you go first. I’ll just sit here by myself for a bit.”
“Alright, Qing Chen, you wait a bit.”
“It’s fine……”
The door closed with a creak. When she had been in Melbourne the last time, she had sat in the same seat.
At that time, it was Lan Zhi in front of her.
She could really endure. She had lost all her friends and her entire circle, but she did this one last thing for Mu Li Chuan.
Luo QIng Chen laughed at herself. There was a breeze that blew past and she knitted her brows before standing up to walk towards the window.
That year……Lan Zhi did all she could to stop her.
She didn’t know why and now she still doesn’t know why.
When she stood in front of the window, she could feel her breathing come to a stop as her heart felt like it had stopped beating.
Looking out, the flowers on the left and right were surrounded by red peonies.
Inside of it were petals of different colours. With the red on the outside, there were a total of seven colours that formed six words.
Luo Qing Chen, I love you.
