She stayed silent for a while as countless thoughts were running through her mind. She cleared her thoughts and realised that Si Xia wasn't talking anymore.
She walked out from where she was and rushed to Si Xia. She found that he had fallen asleep. She sighed in relief then frowned.
It was winter, although it hasn't snowed yet, it was pretty cold outside and Si Xia was dressed lightly, she took off her coat and put it on him, then she sat down next to him and carried him in her arms.
He felt someone touch him so he frowned and opened his eyes a little, in his daze he only saw a pair of familiar grey eyes.
"It's okay, go back to sleep" Her gentle voice entered his ears and like sedatives it calmed his nerves and he shut his eyes and instantly fell asleep.
Ning Xi smiled affectionately as she stared at his face countless memories filled her mind.
The first time he walked.
The first words he spoke.
The first words he wrote.
His first birthday.
His first day at school.
She caressed his cheeks and sighed.
"Little Xia, mommy's sorry" Her voice was soft, like a faint whisper.
'Mommy's really sorry'
'But mommy can't come back'
'Don't worry mommy will never forget you'
'Mommy will always protect you from the darkness'
She kissed his forehead lightly.
If people were to see this scene, they would probably die from shock.
Who would've thought that 'Shadow' would have a gentle and motherly side.
...
After a while, Ning Xi spotted the headlights of a car.
She gently tapped Si Xia "Little Xia wake up, your dad is here". " Mmm"
Si Xia stood up and rubbed his eyes with his hand. He looked dazed and cute.
Ning Xi put on her coat and was about to leave when she felt a little hand tugging her sleeves.
She looked towards where the car stopped, it was a pretty far distance from where they were so Si Yehan wouldn't be able to see her.
She bent down and kissed his cheek "Little Xia mommy has to go now"
She gently removed his hands from her sleeve.
....
A figure then alighted from the car and walked over in quick strides. His coat fluttered with the wind, his hair was slightly disheaveled and mole at the corner of his eye added to his seductive charm.
"Little Xia"
Si Xia blinked "Dad?"
Si Yehan stopped in front of him and scrunitized him, after confirming he was fine, he sighed in relief. He squatted and helped him put on his coat.
Si Xia tilted his head and looked to his side but didn't see anyone. "Mommy?" His voice was extremely soft , but in the quiet cemetry, it was very clear.
Si Yehan paused his actions.
'Mommy? Was someone else here?'
He didn't say anything and carried Si Xia. "Let's go"
Probably because he was still feeling sleepy, he rested his head on his father's shoulders and quickly fell asleep.
...
The next day, Si Yehan had taken action against Gu Group.
It was said that the Gu Group had suffered a huge loss and was under suspicion of tax evasion. The relevant departments had already begun the investigation.
After all this was the Gu family's business so once this news had been released it became a big deal.
As soon as B city's stock market opened, a large number of major forces had sold off their shares from the Gu Group which caused a panic in the market.
In just a few minutes, the Gu Group's shares had plumented and the market value of the Gu Group disappeared by a billion.
Other than that, Si Corporation had released all working relationships with Black Diamond Entertainment and had blacklisted them.
Everyone knew that Black Diamond Entertainment was the agency that Gu Shiyuan signed under and she was the most famous artist under that brand.
Black Diamond Entertainment had invested a lot of its resources into her to boost her current status as they had benefited from the relationship between the Si family and Gu Shiyuan.
But now things weren't looking good.
...
Gu Residence.
The entire Gu family had been caught off guard. An emergency board meeting was being held at the headquarters of the Gu Group which Gu Jingze was attending.
"Dad...." Gu Shiyuan ran down the stairs crying.
Gu Yiming's face was extremely ugly.
Who would've thought Si Yehan would actually take action?
Guan Ziyao was sitting beside him and the expression on her face was livid.
"Dad, mom.... Yehan he... he... " She ran to her mother and pounced on her.
Guan Ziyao's expression turned gentle "Shiyuan what's wrong?"
Gu Shiyuan handed her phone to Guan Ziyao. After reading the contents on the screen, her expression worsened.
Gu Yiming noticed and frowned "What happened?". Guan Ziyao just passed the phone to him.
He took it and read the contents of the screen "That brat!!!!" He was so angry that he threw the phone the ground.
Not only did he go after the Gu Group, but he also went after Gu Shiyuan's agency.
He had blacklisted them, who would dare to partner with them now?
No one could go against Si Yehan.
His daughter's career had been ruined.
"Shiyuan don't cry, don't worry daddy won't let you suffer okay?" He said this but he didn't even know how to rectify the situation.
.....
Si Residence.
Si Yehan walked to the dinning table where Si Ming and Su An were already seated.
"Good morning dad, Good morning mom" He greeted them then sat down.
They both acknowledged his greeting but didn't say anything else.
What else could they say?
They already knew about the Gu family's situation. It has already happened, so what's the point of saying anything?
In Si Xia's room. . .
Si Xia was about to open the door when an image flashed through his mind.
It was a pair if grey eyes.
His hands paused. Si Xia's heart raced as he tried to recall what happened while he was half asleep last night.
He remembered. He had fallen asleep after talking to his mother's grave, then he felt someone wrap him up in a coat.
He had opened his eyes but was still in a daze, but he had seen it clearly.
It was a pair of grey eyes!!!!
He would never mistake those eyes for someone else and that voice. 'Little Xia mommy has to go now'
His heart jerked and his eyes widened.
Mommy?
Mommy!!
It was mommy!!!
It wasn't a dream. It was real!!!
She was real!!!
Mommy isn't dead.
He opened the door and dashed out of his room.
