Chapter 1638 - Epilogue (11)

However, looking at Li Shu’s state, Mo Xicheng suddenly realized he had no idea how to tell her.

At that moment, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the corridor.

He turned and saw Shi Nianyao running towards him, panting.

She saw Mo Xicheng and instantly asked, “I came as fast as possible once I heard the news. How’s Aunty? Where’s Uncle?”

Mo Xicheng stared at her and said, “He’s dead.”

Shi Nianyao was stunned on the spot by his calm words.

–

Li Shu was lying on the hospital bed. Someone still had to arrange Mo Hai’s funeral.

Mo Xicheng calmly watched the medical personnel clean Mo Hai’s body and put clothes on him. Then they pushed him into the mortuary. He arranged a date with the staff for taking Mo Hai to the crematorium before leaving with Shi Nianyao.

As they walked, he suddenly heard some people talking behind him.

“Why doesn’t Idol Mo look sad at all?”

“I know, right? It looks as if he’s dealing with an outsider.”

“But isn’t the person who died his father?”

“Don’t all of you know? Idol Mo didn’t have a good relationship with his father. His father always thought that he was the son of the mistress, so he hit and scolded him his whole life.”

“But even if that’s the case, he must have some feelings for his father.”

“He’s such a cold person. His mother was so sad she even fainted. Aish!”

“Don’t bother about it. We will never understand the lives of the rich.”

“...”

Shi Nianyao tightened her fist when she heard this. She turned around and walked towards them. When she was about to open her mouth to say something, Mo Xicheng grabbed her arm.

Shi Nianyao looked back in confusion and saw Mo Xicheng shake his head to her.

Shi Nianyao then suppressed the anger in her heart and walked out alongside Mo Xicheng.

Li Shu would still not wake up any time soon.

Thus, Mo Xicheng followed Shi Nianyao to the garden outside the hospital. Both of them sat there quietly and Shi Nianyao looked at Mo Xicheng, not saying anything.

After a while, Mo Xicheng looked at Shi Nianyao and said, “Actually, I’m really not sad about his death.”

Shi Nianyao halted for a moment.

Mo Xicheng turned his head and looked into the distance. He was looking at the nature and plants in front of him, but he also seemed like he was looking through these plants, at something else.

He pursed his lips and kept silent for a moment. Then he continued, “He wasn’t nice to me. Since young, he always hit and scolded me. In fact, he never treated me as his son. When he looked at me, his gaze was always full of anger. Especially every time my mom came back from abroad, he would always treat me like that. So I really don’t care about him. I won’t be sad, even if he has died.”

Shi Nianyao tensed her jaw.

Mo Xicheng continued. “Since he passed away, then just let it be. It’s also a good thing, our family can be calmer in the future.”

Shi Nianyao still kept silent.

Mo Xicheng spoke again. “Nianyao, do you think that I’m too cold?”

Shi Nianyao remained silent and stared at him.

Mo Xicheng moved his gaze away from the intense stare of her innocent eyes.

Then he sighed. “What should I do? I know that he hasn’t treated me well and, after his death, I will be able to handle the company well. So why do I actually feel a little uncomfortable in my heart?”
