Chapter 539 Entrusting an Orphan
"I used to be a member of Dark Night, but at that time, Dark Night's master was Master Ajin's father. He received an invitation from the royal family of Kingdom Y and sent me to protect Princess Anna. That was when Princess Anna and I met and fell in love."
After hiding in a safe place, Liu Xiaowu waited for Wu Bai to wake up before he spoke and told them about his past.
He looked at Wu Bai, who had clenched his hands and red eyes, his eyes full of guilt.
"Anna seemed to know her fate. When she was with me, she never thought about the future. I remember the phrase she said most often was 'seize the day.'"
"Later, she became pregnant. I wanted to take her away, but she didn't want to. During that time, she was in a bad mood and kept humiliating me, arguing with me, and trying to force me to leave."
"Her daily life was taken care of by many maids, and the fact that she was pregnant could not be concealed at all. Her Majesty the Queen soon found out and forced her to abort the child, but she threatened to commit suicide. After a stalemate with the Queen for several months, and the child had grown up, Her Majesty could not bear it anymore and finally relented, sending her out of the castle to take care of the baby."
Recalling the past time, Liu Xiaowu's face was full of nostalgia.
"Those were the happiest days of our lives. There was no royal family, no power, just the two of us, and the baby in our belly. Occasionally, her little niece, Princess Haya, would come to visit her. She was so tiny back then, and when she spoke, she would smile the same beautiful smile as Anna. Looking at her, I felt like I was seeing our future daughter."
At this point, Liu Xiaowu finally couldn't hold back his tears and fell, his eyes filled with sorrow.
Shen Weiyang handed him a tissue and he took it and wiped it.
After he finished wiping, Wu Bo asked him in a hoarse voice: "What happened to the princess later? Why didn't you stay by her side all the time?"
Liu Xiaowu paused for a moment, waiting until his facial muscles had calmed down from the excessive pain before he spoke slowly, "On the day the princess gave birth, a group of people I had never seen before suddenly showed up. They were there to take her away. I wanted to take the princess away, but she said it was too late and told me to take the child with me."
"I naturally didn't want to leave her alone, but she threatened to die, so I had no choice but to leave with the child, thinking I would come back to rescue her after the child was safe."
"But when I got back, the house was empty... Only her little niece, Haya, was left. For some reason, she was hiding in the fireplace, acting all nervous. I asked her about Anna's whereabouts, but she couldn't speak. It was like she was mute. Her mental state was very bad."
"Soon after, I received the news of Anna's death, and I wanted to avenge her."
Having said that, he looked at Wu Bai with guilt.
After Shen Weiyang and Ye Fusu heard this, they also understood that Wu Bai was actually the child of Liu Xiaowu and Anna.
Wu Bai didn't say anything, but buried his head in his knees silently, his body trembling slightly.
Liu Xiaowu wanted to pat his shoulder to comfort him, but his hand was hanging in the air and he couldn't let go.
He is the one who is sorry for his son.
In the end, he didn't get his revenge and his son was lost.
Shen Weiyang broke the silence in the awkward and sad atmosphere, looked at Liu Xiaowu and asked: "What happened next, Brother Liu, why did you appear in No Man's Land again?"
Mentioning this, Liu Xiaowu's smile turned even more bitter, with a self-deprecating sneer: "Because I was self-righteous and got some clues about the group of people who took Anna away that night. The royal family is unwilling to investigate and give their princess an explanation, so I will go."
"I planned to save Su Yu, who was Yu Nanting, and then successfully entered the Dark Night. However, Yu Nanting discovered my identity in the end, and my memory was erased and thrown into the No Man's Land to fend for himself."
He looked at Shen Weiyang, a bitter smile on his lips: "Weiyang, now you know how grateful I am to you? I have been living in that place for more than ten years, neither human nor ghost. If it weren't for you and Mr. Leng to rescue us, my life would have passed by like this."
"You also helped me restore my memory, allowing me to remember everything I shouldn't have forgotten. More importantly, you saved my son and brought him back from hell."
As he spoke, he slowly stood up, and then suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Weiyang.
Shen Weiyang was startled and immediately went to help him, asking him not to do this.
"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you? Please stop being like this. Didn't I tell you that we are comrades who have shared hardships. There's no need to be so polite."
Liu Xiaowu held her wrist tightly, but still knelt in front of her and refused to get up: "Weiyang, listen to me first."
"I'm very grateful to you for rescuing Xiao Wu from that place. Back then, in order to seek revenge, I entrusted him to a peasant woman in the countryside. I would occasionally visit him secretly. Only when I saw him would I feel better and tell myself that Anna had left me the most precious gift."
"But I didn't expect them to spare even a child. After sending me to No Man's Land, they also imprisoned him in Cell 86, intending to train Anna and my child into a killing machine. If you hadn't saved him, I really don't know what this child would be like now."
"Thank goodness you saved him. Seeing him grow up like this, I'm really satisfied and happy."
Wu Bai, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke uncomfortably at this moment: "Why are you doing this? Let Sister Wei Yang go and don't embarrass her."
When Shen Weiyang told him what the symbol of the dark night meant, he had already guessed Ye Zhaozhao's true identity.
Now, before the greater shock of his life experience, the fact that Ye Zhaozhao was Shen Weiyang was easier for him to accept.
But Liu Xiaowu suddenly held his hand and handed it to Shen Weiyang: “Weiyang, can I ask you for one last favor?”
Shen Weiyang had a very bad premonition. Now that she was so close to Liu Xiaowu, she smelled a familiar smell, and a huge shock and fear almost overwhelmed her.
However, she did not show it in front of Ye Fusu and Wu Bai. Instead, she asked Liu Xiaowu with a choked voice: "You said, Brother Liu, you don't have to be polite to me."
Liu Xiaowu forcefully placed Wu Bai's hand in hers and asked her to hold it. Her voice was filled with sorrow: "This is my last request. Please help me take good care of Xiao Wu and keep an eye on him for me."
"Although this child is impulsive and irritable, he is very well-behaved and a good child. You have spent more time with him than I have, so you should know him better than I do. Xiao Wu is really a good child."
"Although he hasn't received much education, he's very smart and has the ability to make a living. He can be your bodyguard or babysitter. I just ask that you spend more time talking to him and that we, as his parents, pay more attention to him and don't leave him alone."
"He won't bother you with anything extra. I just ask you, Weiyang, to give him some family love, treat him like a younger brother, and give him more care. Don't leave him alone."
