Chapter 14 The Letter Left by Shen Xi
Shen Xi looked at the floral-covered diary with a puzzled expression, but there wasn't a single word on it.
Could it be that the original owner accidentally fell in?
She looked at it for a long time but didn't find anything special, so she just casually put it on the dressing table.
She packed up everything, though there was actually very little left to pack; she didn't take a single expensive piece of clothing with her.
She didn't have much to begin with; she only carried a black backpack she'd just bought at a street stall, containing her ID documents—it was pitifully light.
It's time to say goodbye to Jiangdu.
That child is quite likable.
A minute later, Shen Xi came downstairs and peeked out to see a group of servants doing their own things downstairs.
Shen Xi breathed a sigh of relief and raised an eyebrow.
Strange, even Butler Li isn't here?
You should know that this housekeeper usually treats her like a thief.
But why use "也"?
Because she had just casually called over a maid and asked if Jiang Du was home.
The maid didn't dare look at her, and tremblingly lowered her head to explain, "Young Master is hospitalized, and the young master went to the hospital with him."
Shen Xi had no intention of making things difficult for her, and released her after asking her questions.
She sat on the sofa, recalling how Jiang Ci was perfectly fine yesterday afternoon, so why was he hospitalized now?
CEO has a stomachache?
Shen Xi didn't understand, and she didn't want to know. She just regretted not being able to say goodbye to the child in person.
After much thought, she decided to write a letter, to be more formal. She asked someone to bring her some stationery, then ran to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water and shuffled upstairs in her slippers.
Shen Xi sat at the table with a touch of emotion, thinking that she hadn't written a long essay in a long time since the college entrance examination.
But Shen Xi is a true liberal arts student; writing a simple letter is a piece of cake for her. Just recently, she was reading ancient history books by Jiang Du; her reading comprehension skills are exceptionally strong for such a young age!
She unfolded the letter paper and began to write seriously.
Dear Jiangdu children,
I am delighted to receive your letter; it is as if we are meeting in person.
By the time you read this letter, I will have already left. Because of the rush, I couldn't say goodbye in person, and I apologize for that! (＞_＜). Our lifestyles are different, and now your father and I will be living separately.
However, I want to apologize to you here. Because of my illness, I may not have been so friendly to you in the past. I am not asking for your forgiveness, but hoping that you will learn to fight back and protect yourself if you encounter this kind of thing again.
You are a lovely child. What I did was my mistake. Everyone around you loves you, Jiangdu, and I hope you won't doubt yourself.
You are so lovely, you deserve all the love in the world.
Okay, actually there's not much more to say. I hope that after reading this letter, little Jiangdu will say goodbye to me and then never think of me again.
遥祝
Good health and all the best!
沈溪
Date: [Date]
Shen Xi's brushstrokes were somewhat heavy, with the character '溪' (xi) written with a bit too much ink.
In this letter, she acknowledged the mistakes the original owner had made in front of the child. Over the past few days, she could see that the child liked her very much and that the child had experienced post-traumatic stress disorder.
The rain that falls in childhood is a dampness for a lifetime.
Let this be the last thing she could do for him before she left.
Shen Xi gently placed the letter into an envelope, along with the black card the child had given her. She then used some cartoon stickers she had found to cover the envelope.
Everything is done; Shen Xi should leave tomorrow.
……
Jiang Ci had a dream.
The dream was strange. He went to a place called Yunxiaxiang, but he had never even heard of this place in reality.
But here, as a child, he got into a fight with a short boy, and what's even more infuriating is that he couldn't beat him!!!
Although he was short, he was still a head taller than Xiao Jiangci.
The short man forcefully pinned him down, forcing him to apologize.
People have to bow their heads under the roof.
He apologized, feeling frustrated!
Perhaps he was really frustrated in his dream, as Jiang Ci, a little kid, was forced to acknowledge another little kid, who was a bit taller and darker, as his older brother.
Because the tall, dark-skinned radish-headed boy said, "If you don't acknowledge me as your boss, I'll beat you up."
As she spoke, she shook her fist and glared fiercely at Xiao Jiangci.
Xiao Jiangci had always been a young master, with servants following him wherever he went, and he had never suffered such hardships.
Xiao Jiangci glared back fiercely, hands on her hips: "Dream on! When my mom and dad get here, I'll have them beat you to death!"
The tall, dark-skinned boy rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "When Mom and Dad come, they'll beat you to death, you spoiled brat!"
This infuriated Xiao Jiang! He bared his teeth, ready to curse back, but having never cursed before, his vocabulary was limited, and he couldn't utter a single swear word for a long time.
The dark-skinned boy instead stepped closer to Xiao Jiangci, cornering him and lifting Xiao Jiangci's chin: "One word, admit it or not, or I'll beat you up!"
Xiao Jiangci always knew when to throw a tantrum, and he nodded timidly, "I admit it, please don't hit me!"
The dream seemed to speed up the cassette tape, with spring and autumn passing year after year, the snow slowly melting, and green grass quietly sprouting.
That year, Xiao Jiangci grew a little taller, even a head and a half taller than the dark-skinned boy, yet they remained together.
The dark-skinned boy became a bit fairer, but he wasn't as handsome and refined as Xiao Jiangci; instead, he looked more delicate.
That year, Xiao Jiangci liked to stick close to the dark-skinned boy. They were in the same class, ate the same food, lived in the same dormitory, and did everything together!
The dark-skinned boy, on the contrary, started to dislike him and refused to go bathing or swimming with him.
Xiao Jiang didn't understand. He felt wronged, but he didn't say anything.
But soon, Xiao Jiangci's attention was diverted when he noticed a girl handing a love letter to the dark-skinned boy!
He felt inexplicably annoyed, so he secretly threw the love letter into the trash can when the dark-skinned boy wasn't looking.
He even subtly manipulated the young man, telling him that girls are the scariest thing.
The black boy looked completely bewildered, thinking that he was the one who was being unreasonable.
At this point in the dream, Jiang Ci was more than just shocked. How could he have been so cowardly as a child?!
Also, why did he tear up someone's love letter?
Although he is indeed somewhat unrestrained in his actions, he would never do anything to ruin a girl's feelings.
What's more, it's also about gossiping behind people's backs!
This is definitely not him. This dream is too terrifying. He needs to wake up!
"Dean, Young Master Jiang's heartbeat has returned to normal, and his bodily functions are gradually recovering, but this is happening way too fast!"
An unbelievable sound entered Jiang Ci's ears, and he struggled to lift his heavy eyelids.
A buzzing sound filled his ears, like countless flies swarming around them.
Jiang Ci unconsciously frowned. Who is making so much noise?
The doctor held the light up his eyes, and Jiang Ci was so shocked that he immediately closed his eyes.
The Jiang family members outside the ICU waited anxiously, their eyes fixed on the doorway.
Yan Kaihua said it was a good result.
