Chapter 344: A Review of the Most Precious Gifts
Achen returned from the training room at the old house, covered in sweat, only to find his mother smiling gently: "My sweetheart, will you sleep with Mommy tonight?"
"Huh? Before I started school, didn't you say that I was a big kid now and needed to learn to be independent, and that I couldn't sleep with you anymore?"
When this was mentioned, Achen still felt a little aggrieved. The first night he slept in a separate room from his mother, he felt like he was all alone in the world. In the end, he fell asleep while hugging the fathead fish with a look of disgust.
However, after gradually getting used to sleeping alone, he discovered the advantages. He had his own independent space and could jump around in his room as much as he wanted.
“But Mom really wants to cuddle with you tonight, baby. What, are you disgusted with Mom?” Zuo Shan said, feigning grievance.
"No, how could I dislike my mom? I just... Okay, then I'll sleep with my mom tonight," Achen said hesitantly.
What he really wanted to say was that he was afraid that after sleeping with his mother tonight, he wouldn't want to sleep in a separate room from her.
But he's almost seven years old, so he's embarrassed to say such things.
After the mother and son got into bed, Achen didn't try to snuggle into her arms like before, but instead looked at her head to head.
For some reason, he felt that his mother's gaze towards him tonight was sticky, much like the way Tsuzaki Kaori's mother looked at Dr. Hiro.
Yuko Tsuzaki would often use the excuse of discussing poisons to get close to Dr. Hiro, but he would never pay attention to her. Whenever she came within five meters of him, he would chase her away.
My mother went to the school clinic once in a while. Although Dr. Bo's attitude wasn't very enthusiastic, he never chased her away. When he was in a good mood, he would even smile at my mother.
Yuko Tsuzaki was particularly jealous of this, and would glare at her mother every time she saw her.
Although Ah Chen was young, he understood Dr. Bo's thoughts. He didn't like being bothered by women, and his mother always came to him with questions about medicine, unlike Tsuzaki Yuko who had impure motives.
But why did Mom look at him with such a sticky look tonight?
Did she finally realize that her son was the most handsome man in the world, so she fell in love with someone else and no longer loved her father?
Ah Chen silently mourned for her father for three seconds, but soon became immersed in immense happiness.
It turns out that the person my mother loves most in this world is him!
Having figured this out, Achen began to look at his mother with the most ardent gaze.
But he was too tired and sleepy, and only lasted a few minutes before he fell asleep on his mother's shoulder.
Zuo Shan reached out and gently hugged her son, tears streaming down her face like a flood.
If there's one thing she'd miss the most, it would undoubtedly be her son, who had been by her side since the most difficult times, and was as close to her as blood.
She wasn't the type to be blinded by love. Even though she accepted Xiaobai and fell in love with him, the most important person in her heart was always Achen.
She knew that Xiaobai was racing against time to prevent the disaster from happening, so she didn't send him a single message.
She didn't ask him what difficulties he had encountered, nor what he was doing. She even set a time for saying goodbye, 17 days later.
Because that day was the day the official pre-war mobilization was announced. If Xiaobai successfully prevented the disaster, that day would be a peaceful and tranquil one.
Conversely, if a great disaster were to strike, she thought he would take her son and escape to safety, considering that she had already given her life for this disaster.
She transferred all the money from the wristwatch to her son's account, and hung the spatial button on the cloud bead necklace that Ah Chen was wearing, which could be hidden.
She kept the smallest space button that Xiaobai had given her, which contained the baby stroller that Achen used to ride in when he was little.
The baby hair she shaved off for him, the razor Xiao Bao made for her, Achen's two recently lost front teeth, and several cute little outfits he's worn since he was a baby.
The two largest teeth from the carcass of the giant crocodile that Xiaobai gave her years ago, and the smallest crocodile egg that was left over from eating.
Xiao Bao crafted several daggers, a set of Rain of Pear Blossom Needles, and several exquisite pastry boxes for her.
On the day Lele participated in the weapon refiner assessment, she publicly refined her first magical weapon that combined offense and defense—the Karmic Fire Red Lotus.
Panda developed a new genetically modified drug specifically for her, which he said would enhance her physical condition.
However, she expressed doubt about panda's research findings, after all, his former owner had taken the gene serum she had developed and turned himself into a mindless monster.
There was also the Purple Cloud Egg she found when she was scavenging in District 50, a special energy stone that could continuously release pure energy. According to Mao Li, with it, she could give birth to a healthy baby.
In fact, she always slept with it as a pillow, and her son, Achen, was indeed very healthy.
But later she grew many low-radiation crops, and felt that the stone was no longer that important, so she casually put it into her space.
There was also a multi-functional nanny robot that Mao Li gave her for her last birthday, which can help her make all kinds of delicious food.
Zuo Shan tossed and turned, taking stock of each precious gift, but in the end, she couldn't bear to transfer them to A Chen's spatial button as well.
If she is destined to die, then let her be buried with these most precious memories.
Finally, she took out two bottles of her newly formulated hemostatic and repairing medicine, packed them in a pretty little metal box, and stuck a sticker on the bottle cap with two short lines of text:
"Thank you, Bo Yiyan!"
Goodbye, my teachers and friends!
When she finished doing this, her eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, and she could no longer open them.
Finally, she placed her hand on her lower abdomen. Unable to utter a sound, she conveyed her thoughts through telepathy:
"I'm sorry, baby Xi'er, Mommy couldn't bring you safely into this world."
Her consciousness gradually blurred, and in her hazy state, she seemed to see the silver-haired man:
"The person I feel most sorry for is still you, Xiaobai! I left you nothing, I just hope you can forget me as soon as possible and start your new life."
If there really is an afterlife, I don't want to borrow someone else's body. I want to use my own body to find you when you were still a little boy..."
A woman with a smile on her lips shed a final tear, and the world finally fell into complete silence.
