Chapter 569: Chapter 567 I Miss You_1

Last night, Mu Zisu slept peacefully, the very thought of seeing Xiaoxiao in two months finally sent a ripple of warmth through his heart...

After breakfast the next day, Mu Zisu and Mu Ziqing went to visit Pei Mojing’s father--Pei Yucheng at the hospital.

Pei Mojing had told him about Pei Yucheng’s situation, late-stage stomach cancer, with not much time left...

When they arrived at the hospital, Pei Mojing was already waiting for them in the inpatient department...

Seeing that Mu Zixuan hadn’t come, a hint of disappointment crossed his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal, after all, she had just returned, and he shouldn’t expect too much...

"Zisu, Qiqi..." Although Pei Mojing hadn’t seen Qiqi many times, he was aware of their relationship and saw no need to act like strangers.

"How is it? Is the condition under control?" Mu Zisu asked.

Even though Pei Mojing’s relationship with his father was strained, a father was still a father, blood is thicker than water, and he couldn’t help worrying about his father’s illness.

Pei Mojing sighed deeply, "At most four months..."

"Four months?" Mu Zisu furrowed his brow, "He can’t hold on for a year?"

Pei Mojing shook his head, then gave a gentle smile to both, "Let’s go, let’s go up and see him..."

Pei Yucheng’s slightly overweight body had now become emaciated, covered in tubes of various sizes that made him look even more like a dying man.

However, he indeed didn’t have much time left, four months was just lingering on...

He was deeply asleep, and both Mu Zisu and Mu Ziqing stayed silent; they didn’t wake him...

Pei Mojing took them to the outer room to sit on the sofa. Looking at Mu Zisu, he smiled faintly, "I’m grateful that you came to see him..."

"It’s what we should do..." Mu Zisu smiled indifferently.

In such a situation, Mu Ziqing had nothing to add, so she just sat next to Mu Zisu quietly, drinking water and listening to the two men converse.

Suddenly, Mu Zisu said to Pei Mojing, "Xiaoxiao is still alive..."

The hand that Pei Mojing had on his cup shook suddenly, and some water spilled from it onto his hand.

He looked up in shock, his gaze somewhat incredulous as he looked at Mu Zisu.

After all, he had been there at the time, and he had witnessed Xiaoxiao being taken away by her father, lifeless...

"She... is still alive?"

A hint of warmth appeared in Mu Zisu’s eyes as he gently nodded, "Yes, she is still alive..."

Before Pei Mojing could recover from his joy, Mu Zisu continued, "You can go after Shanshan with full confidence now..."

In that moment, Pei Mojing felt an overwhelming joy in his chest with nowhere to vent, and he wanted to shout into the sky three times, "Shanshan, I love you..."

But considering the other patients, he suppressed the joy in his heart, looking at Mu Zisu with ecstatic happiness.

Relieved, Mu Zisu commented, "Do not let us down..."

Pei Mojing was overjoyed, his slender phoenix eyes full of uncontainable delight, "Don’t worry... I definitely won’t let you down..."

Mu Zisu smiled and nodded--

Finally perking up, Mu Ziqing’s eyes lit up as she looked at Pei Mojing, "So in the future, I can secretly start calling you brother-in-law, huh..."

Hearing Mu Ziqing’s endearingly sweet words, Mu Zisu and Pei Mojing couldn’t help but shake their heads and laugh...

When they returned to the Mu Family residence, there was no sign of Mu Zixuan being busy; she was actually dozing off comfortably on a lounge chair in the garden...

"Sis!!" Mu Ziqing suddenly jumped in front of her, leaning close to her ear and shouting loudly.

As Mu Zixuan was dozing off, she was abruptly awoken by Mu Ziqing’s shout, and her drowsiness vanished completely...

She placed her hand on her chest and looked helplessly at Mu Ziqing, who was laughing sweetly.

"Mu Ziqing... you know that scaring people can actually kill them?" She was really almost scared to death by her.

She was frightened half to death by Yaoyao two days ago, and just now her little girl gave her quite a shock too. What’s been happening to her lately?

"Hehe... didn’t you say you had something to do? Why are you napping here..." Mu Ziqing stood up straight, looking quite superior.

Mu Zixuan raised her hand to block the somewhat glaring sunlight, "I’ve finished my business and come back..."

"Tsk, I don’t believe it... You were clearly just at home..." Mu Ziqing sat down on a little stool nearby.

"How do you know that?" Mu Zixuan turned her head to look at her.

"I asked the butler when I came back..." Mu Ziqing said indifferently.

Mu Zixuan chuckled, alright, she indeed hadn’t gone out...

"Where’s Yaoyao? Didn’t he come back with you?"

"Mm, he dropped me off and then went to the company..."

"Oh, I thought so too..."

Mu Ziqing rolled her eyes, drawn out a long hum, then tentatively looked at Mu Zixuan, "Sis... why don’t you ever ask how Pei Mojing’s father is doing?"

Mu Zixuan paused, sighed softly, then asked, "How is his father?"

"Who are you talking about?" Mu Ziqing played coy.

Mu Zixuan literally looked skyward, wondering, since when had Little Qiqi also become slick with words?

"Pei Mojing..." Mu Zixuan chewed on the three familiar syllables with a light tone.

"Hehe, not very well, I heard him say that he only has four months left..." Mu Ziqing said helplessly.

Mu Zixuan gave an ’oh’ and said nothing more.

Four months, indeed not much time left...

In his heart, he must be somewhat saddened, right?

"Sis... don’t you... want to go see him?" Mu Ziqing glanced at Mu Zixuan again.

Mu Zixuan lowered her eyelashes and said softly, "Let’s wait a bit longer..."

"Alright then..." Mu Ziqing shrugged her shoulders.

After Mu Zixuan and Mu Ziqing returned from abroad, they each started working on their own.

Mu Zixuan went back to her previous company, and as for taking over Chenxia International, she thought about holding off for a while.

Mu Ziqing liked painting, her major was fine arts, and having just come back from abroad, she wanted to freely create some pieces at home first...

That morning, as soon as Mu Zixuan arrived at the company, the receptionist brought over three exquisitely vibrant red roses...

She raised her eyebrows and reached out to take them...

Pulling out the small pink card, her gaze suddenly froze; on it were just three words: I miss you.

Although there was no signature, Mu Zixuan recognized at first glance the flamboyant writing belonged to whom...

Pei Mojing...

She looked down at the three roses in her hand and felt a slight twinge in her heart; the meaning behind three roses was well-known: I love you...

She stretched out her slender fingers and gently touched the tender petals. After a moment, she couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth and placed them in a vase on her office desk...

For several days in a row, each day when Mu Zixuan went to the company, she would receive three red roses and a pink card, still without much words, just the familiar three: I miss you...
