Upstart Reborn

Li Aiqing didn't speak, but the crying on the phone became louder.Mu Xiaoyun felt his heart ache, and he couldn't breathe.He listened to his mother crying silently, the little affection left in his heart for his father gradually faded with the sound of his mother's crying, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Mu Xiaoyun suddenly remembered that in his previous life, after his mother died, he seldom went to the grave and missed her, let alone those who didn't care whether she died or lived.The hand holding the mobile phone exerted a faint force. He wanted to crush the mobile phone to stop the continuous crying from the text, but Mu Xiaoyun didn't have that kind of strength. He knew better that this was just his own whimsy. idea.

Looking at the frown of the little jumping student and the increasingly cold eyes of the little jumping student, Xia Minghe felt a little irritable in his heart for no reason.

After a long time, he heard Mu Xiaoyun say: "Mom, what's wrong with you?...Mom, did Dad call you?...What? I'll be home right away, you wait for me."

With that said, Mu Xiaoyun hung up the phone.Regardless of Xia Minghe's presence, he ran away.

"Yunyun." Xia Minghe held Mu Xiaoyun's hand, but he didn't say anything, but looked at him seriously with bottomless eyes.

Mu Xiaoyun took a deep breath: "I'll go home first, don't worry." Since when, just by looking at this brat, he can understand his thoughts?But now, Mu Xiaoyun is not in the mood to explain to Xia Minghe, he is afraid that something will happen to Li Aiqing if he goes home late.

"I'll accompany you." He wanted to know all the worries around Mu Xiaoyun.Xia Minghe doesn't like the feeling of looking at the person he likes frowning, but he doesn't know anything about it.

However, Mu Xiaoyun shook his head firmly: "My mother doesn't want to see outsiders at this time."

Xia Minghe was stunned by the words of an outsider.

"Brother, I'll explain to you when I get back." Seeing Xia Minghe's shocked expression, Mu Xiaoyun said again.

"En." One sentence comforted Xia Minghe.

Mu Xiaoyun took a direct taxi from B University to his home, and it was already an hour later.He opened the door and went in. It was still the empty hall, the lifeless house.This was a completely different mood from when he and Xia Minghe had just left in the morning.

Mu Xiaoyun took a deep breath, and he closed the door lightly.

Came to Li Aiqing's room, turned the doorknob, felt a gust of air-conditioning, frowned subconsciously, and looked at the person lying curled up on the bed.Mu Xiaoyun walked in, picked up the air conditioner beside the bed, adjusted the temperature to a moderate level, then sat on the bedside, looking at Li Aiqing who was asleep.

There were tears on her pale face, and in just a few days, my mother's forehead was already wrinkled.

When she left in the morning, her mother's expression of joy was still so profound, it had only been a long time... her heart ached, and Mu Xiaoyun's lips trembled in pain.

Mu Xiaoyun stretched out his hand and hugged Li Aiqing. He buried his face in Li Aiqing's chest. Through the blanket, he could hear the sound of Li Aiqing's heartbeat. eternity.

The haze and depth in his eyes were buried together.Li Aiqing couldn't see it, and everyone couldn't see it.

"Xiao Yun?" Li Aiqing was hugged tightly by him, and called out softly.

"Mom?" When she looked up, the child's innocent and worried eyes had changed.

Li Aiqing raised his body, leaned against the head of the bed, and looked at his young son.She is very happy, her son is only 13 years old and has been admitted to university, but she really can't laugh. "Mom, what do you mean by what you said on the phone? What did grandma say that she kicked you out of the house, and what did they say that they killed you and threw you at the intersection of the highway? There is still a law in this country."

On the phone just now, Mu Xiaoyun didn't hear clearly, but Li Aiqing said that she had heard the news that grandma wanted to let that woman Yao Jingjing into the house, and that the Mu family had decided to unite to drive her away.

It's not that Mu Xiaoyun doesn't doubt Li Aiqing's words, but in comparison, he is more worried about how his mother heard these words.

Even if grandma wanted Yao Jingjing to enter the house, Mu Xiaoyun predicted that the Mu family would not dare to talk about murder.Therefore, he is most worried about his mother's illness.

When Li Aiqing committed suicide before, the doctor had already said that she had mental problems, and she was suffering from deafness.Mu Xiaoyun's suspicion at this moment is whether his mother's illness has worsened.

"What's the use of the law? The rich have the final say. Now that the Mu family is rich, what can't they do?" Li Aiqing said hoarsely.And the voice was trembling, and the eyes were panicked.

mom?Mu Xiaoyun's voice was stuck in his throat.He felt his eyes were red and wet, and something was about to flow out.But he can't.

Turning his head, Mu Xiaoyun took another deep breath. "Mom, where did you hear this?" The people who have been in the nursing home are surrounded by strange old people or colleagues. Even if these words are true, how did the mother hear them?

"Of course I have my own way. Someone in the village called me and told me."

"Who is it, give me the phone number."

"What's the use for you? You're still young, so you don't understand." Li Aiqing's voice suddenly became rough, and the indifference in his voice surprised Mu Xiaoyun.

"Mom." Mu Xiaoyun said helplessly, "Have you taken any medicine recently?"

Mu Xiaoyun went to the hospital to buy the medicine every month, because Li Aiqing didn't want to go, she didn't think she was sick, and she didn't want to be treated as crazy.So every time Mu Xiaoyun went there, he would tell the doctor about Li Aiqing's situation, and then prepare a monthly dose.But according to today's situation, Mu Xiaoyun had to be suspicious.

"I'm not eating anymore. I've always told you not to buy it. I'm not sick, let alone crazy. Don't waste this money." In fact, during the first year of the year, Li Aiqing couldn't sleep every day. Take what the doctor ordered.But later in the nursing home, she felt better and fell asleep, so she stopped eating.Every time Mu Xiaoyun called to ask questions, she kept talking nonsense about eating.

"Mom, do you know or not? I'm worried." He knew his mother's temper, she was stubborn sometimes, otherwise she wouldn't have thought of committing suicide at the beginning of the year.

Li Aiqing stopped talking, just stared at her eyes, but there was no focus in them.

"Mom, what do you think?" Mu Xiaoyun could only soften his tone.

"I want to leave here." At this moment, Li Aiqing's reaction was quick. "I want to run far away so that they can't find me. I don't want to die yet." I don't want to die yet.When he committed suicide at the beginning of the year, if he could think that he didn't want to die, then he wouldn't have Mu Xiaoyun's life.

"Xiao Yun, you don't have to worry about me. Just stay here and you'll be fine. They won't do anything to you. It's me they want to get rid of."

"Then where do you want to go? I don't know anyone well." Mu Xiaoyun asked tentatively.

"It's good to go anywhere, the farther the better."

"Mom, did Dad call you? Did he say something?"

After Mu Xiaoyun asked this sentence, Li Aiqing fell silent again. "Mom, you rest first, I'll go prepare some food."

"kindness."

When Mu Xiaoyun walked out of the room, he closed the door behind him.He leaned against the door panel and rubbed his temples.Then he went to the attic and called Mu Youcheng.

The phone rang for a long time before answering, but the person who answered the phone, this voice Mu Xiaoyun will never forget for the rest of his life, this is the first time the three of them heard it.

"Hello? Xiao Yun? Your dad is taking a shower." The voice, which sounded enthusiastic, was Yao Jingjing.

Mu Xiaoyun passed the age of impulsively hanging up the phone, he told himself to bear it, and then asked: "Is it Aunt Cai? I'm Xiao Yun, please ask my father to call me back later." Mu Xiaoyun Aunt Cai in Yunkou is Mu Youcheng's assistant.

When Mu Xiaoyun said this, his hands wanted to grab Yao Jingjing's neck.For the calculations and strategies in his previous life, he had to admire Yao Jingjing, she was a powerful woman.Fortunately, he supported his parents' divorce, otherwise, the weak mother would not be Yao Jingjing's opponent.

Today, listening to Yao Jingjing's voice on the phone, Mu Xiaoyun suddenly felt ironic.Looking at the way this girl called him, didn't he deceive himself in the same way back then?

"I'm not Xiao Cai, it's you..." Yao Jingjing probably didn't expect to receive a call from Mu Xiaoyun at this time, and she was hesitant to answer the phone after it rang for so long.But she is a smart person, she knows Mu Youcheng's love and guilt for this son, and if Mu Youcheng wants to divorce, Mu Xiaoyun is the real pillar.

"Xiao Yun, I'm your father's friend. Your father has come out. I'll ask him to answer the phone."

When the phone was transferred to Mu Youcheng, Mu Xiaoyun heard Mu Youcheng's introduction: "It was your aunt who just answered the phone."

Mu Xiaoyun didn't want to talk about Yao Jingjing, so he asked directly: "Dad, did you call my mom today?"
