Nuannuan had always thought that Liang Chi was just sick and would recover soon, but today she found out that he was going to die.

A huge feeling of panic came over her, and Nuannuan hugged Liang Chi tightly and burst into tears.

She had experienced this before, when she was younger than she is now.

Grandma was her only relative in Xiaoxi Village. Although she didn’t understand what death meant at that time, when her grandma closed her eyes and grabbed her hand and it dropped weakly, her heart was panicked and empty. She cried and called for her grandma, but her grandma would never come back.

That was the first time the little girl faced life and death. After her grandmother died, she was alone and had no home.

Therefore, Nuannuan has always been afraid that people around her will die, and she is particularly concerned about the health of her brothers, often urging them to eat on time.

Now that she knew that Brother Ananda was about to die, Nuannuan was extremely panicked and she almost cried to the point of having a choke.

"Stop crying."

Liang Chi squatted down and hugged Nuannuan. His body was much thinner than before. There was not much flesh on his face and hands, and they were pale and sickly.

He gently wiped the tears from Nuan Nuan's face. On his thin wrist, he still wore the blessing belt that Nuan Nuan had given him. Although it was useless, Liang Chi never took it off.

"Do you know where people go after they die?"

Nuannuan's face turned red from crying. Her clear eyes filled with tears stared at the thin young man in front of her, and her two little hands quickly grabbed his palms.

Liang Chi said in a gentle voice, "The world where people live is called the Yang World, but after people die, there is another world called the Yin World. It's just that we humans cannot see this world with our naked eyes. When I die, my soul will go to the Yin World, where I will meet the souls of many dead people, my relatives, and even your relatives, Nuan Nuan."

Nuannuan listened to him talking and gradually became quiet. Her little face looked so pitiful from crying that it was heartbreaking.

Liang Chi pulled her to sit down and continued, "So death doesn't really mean disappearance. It just means living in another place in a different way."

Nuan Nuan tightly held his hand - "Really? Is it true? But the book says... the book says that, that is a lie."

Liang Chi said seriously: "Of course it is true. What is written in the book is not necessarily true. We cannot see the world after death, so who can guarantee that it does not exist?"

Nuannuan pursed her lips and said nothing, just staring at him with her big eyes.

Liang Chi smiled and continued, "So you see, death is not that scary, right? And if I have had enough fun in the underworld and don't want to stay there anymore, I can reincarnate and return to this world as a new life."

Nuan Nuan wiped the tears from her face with her little hands and asked, "Will Brother Ananda come back too?"

Liang Chi rubbed her head - "Yes, but next time I don't want to become a human. Being a human is so tiring. When I was a child, I had no ability to survive and had to rely on others to live. If I could come back, I would like to be a wolf."

"Why?"

Liang Chi smiled and said, "Because animals have a very short growth period, they can grow up and hunt and feed themselves in a few months or maybe a year. As for why it's a wolf, it's because we have an agreement that I will become a wolf to protect you."

Nuan Nuan said sullenly: "I don't want Brother Ananda to protect me. I want Brother Ananda to be alive."

She didn't know whether the other world that Brother Ananda mentioned really existed. But she knew that Brother Ananda must have said that to comfort her and not let her worry.

Nuannuan also tried hard not to cry so as not to worry brother Ananda.

His health was already not good, and it would be even worse if he was worried about her, but...but I'm really sad...

After a long time, the door of Liang Chi's ward was opened, and Bai Moshu, Bai Mohua, Gu An and Zhang Liang all ran in with anxious looks, and they were relieved when they saw Nuannuan.

But looking at this situation...

Bai Moshu could tell immediately that Nuannuan probably knew it.

He sighed in his heart and walked over to rub his little cousin's head.

"My eldest cousin."

Nuan Nuan's mouth was pouting and his eyes were red. He didn't want to cry, but he couldn't control his tears with a sour nose.

Bai Moshu wiped his tears and picked him up - "Do you want to go out and play?"

"Um?"

A warm, soft voice with a strong nasal tone.

"I and your brother Ananda want to go see the outside world. Do you want to go?"

Liang Chi looked at Bai Moshu with some surprise.

Nuan Nuan——"But...but I still have to go to school."

"Do you know everything the teacher taught you?"

Nuannuan hugged his neck and nodded.

Bai Moshu pinched the back of the girl's neck with his cool fingers - "Then it's okay to take a few days off, and you can still study even if you are away from home."

"good."

Nuannuan nodded obediently.

Bai Moshu is also very proactive. He asked for leave for Nuannuan as soon as he asked.

After hearing this, the school's head teacher felt a little regretful, but still agreed.

Why do I say regret? Because I don’t know why they become less motivated in class when Nuan Nuan is in the classroom.

At night, Gu Nan and the others also knew that Nuannuan had asked for leave. By then, the little girl had been carried to bed by her big brother and had fallen asleep obediently.

Gu Mingyu frowned - "Let Nuannuan accompany Liang Chi to play? What do you think!"

Bai Moshu's voice was cold and emotionless.

"She found out about Liang Chi's situation and cried hard."

Everyone else was silent.

They had thought they could keep it secret as long as possible, but they didn't expect it to be discovered.

At this time, Gu An started to yell, "I want to go too! Brother, I'll take a leave too. I want to go with Nuan Nuan!"

Gu Nan——“No.”

Gu An's eyes widened——"On what basis!"

Gu Nan asked in a cold tone: "Have you finished the course?"

Gu An——"…" It's already amazing that he can finish his winter vacation homework, but you still expect him to review the classes he hasn't attended in advance. What are you thinking?

Bai Moshu's posture is like a cold bamboo. Even when he sits casually on a chair and reads a book, he exudes a sense of coolness and elegance.

"The premise of my suggestion is that Nuannuan has already completed her second-grade coursework."

Gu An——"…" suddenly passed out——"Can't I come back and study again?"

The brothers said in unison: "No!"

Gu An: You are just bullying me because I am small!

He was sad and angry, but he could not resist.

Knowing that Bai Moshu would be coming along, Gu Nan and Gu Mingyu felt relieved. Oh, and Bai Mohua had to be included as well.

But Bai Mohua's personality is equivalent to Bai Moshu being alone with two children.

The matter was settled and Bai Moshu went to the hospital to ask for leave the next day. The hospital director was so reluctant to let Bai Moshu go that it was like sending away his own son. He almost held Bai Moshu's hand and cried.

Of course, Bai Moshu successfully got the leave in the end.
