Why are you squatting here?

A gentle voice sounded in my ear, and a strand of soft blue hair fell beside my face, tickling me.

Zhou Siyu casually said, "It's nothing, I'm just looking at my husband."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that the person he was talking to was Chu Yunmu!

It's Chu Yunmu when she was a child!

Zhou Siyu wanted to slap herself twice. How could she have slipped up at this moment!

"You little rascal, you're quite amusing when you talk." Chu Yunmu scratched his head, squatted down next to Zhou Siyu, and looked in the direction Zhou Siyu had been looking. "Were you looking at Yu Wei?"

"You two know each other?"

Zhou Siyu was a little confused. Didn't they meet at the youth training camp?

“I know him, but he doesn’t know me.” Chu Yunmu shook his head and explained, “He is the only grandson of Chairman Yu and the only son of Marshal Yu. He is frail and sickly but intelligent. My father hopes that I will be like him.”

Even though a child around ten years old speaks like an adult with maturity, their words cannot hide their envy.

“You are also very capable. Roses have their passion, and orchids have their elegance. You don’t necessarily have to become him.”

Zhou Siyu looked up at Chu Yunmu with a serious expression, trying to persuade him even in the illusion. He hoped to help Chu Yunmu learn to be confident and stop feeling inferior.

Chu Yunmu paused for a moment, then lowered his head thoughtfully.

Just as I was about to continue offering guidance, a commotion suddenly broke out in another corner.

The corner was surrounded by layers of servants and guests coming and going. Zhou Siyu could only see through the gaps that the little boy who had been sitting on the sofa was now kneeling on the ground with one hand on the ground, seemingly coughing violently, while the family doctor next to him was looking for something in the medicine box.

Bright red blood gushed from the little boy's mouth, blooming into vibrant red flowers on the white carpet.

Zhou Siyu felt his heart clench tightly. He wanted to run over to Yu Wei and hold his hand.

But his leaden legs were immobile; he was rooted to the spot, helplessly watching Yu Wei fall, watching those star-like eyes gradually lose their luster and slowly close.

"Everyone dies, including you. No one lives forever... Throughout history, countless extraordinary people, emperors, and generals have sought immortality, but without exception, they have all failed. You will soon die, like your father, like that little boy... They will leave you, forever, and you will be plunged into endless loneliness and darkness until death..."

A ghostly voice echoed in my ears, and the surrounding scenery changed rapidly. The solid wood walls and white carpet disappeared, the crystal chandelier shattered completely, and the whole world was plunged into endless darkness and cold.
