Chapter 613. Joy and Sorrow, Affairs of Life! (2)

“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to say anything?” The warmth of his voice softened her heart, making the negative feelings inside her subside a little. She started speaking after she calmed down, “Deng Wenwen passed away.”
Xi Xiaye could not hide the grief in her tone.
Mu Yuchen went quiet. He immediately stopped what he was doing and straightened his back. Then, he stood up from his chair moments later to walk towards the large window and looked outside into the sea of stars. He let out a sigh before asking, “Feeling sad?”
Actually, he just received a call from the hospital informing him that Deng Wenwen had passed away. He was thinking about giving her a call, but she called him instead.
Xi Xiaye did not answer his question. “Just now, when she was still conscious, she asked me for forgiveness.”
“What did you say?” Mu Yuchen asked quietly.
He instantly figured out Xi Xiaye’s answer when she did not give a reply, so he then comforted her, “Okay, what’s gone is gone. She’s been struggling for a very long time, so this should be a relief for her. I’ll ask Ah Mo to handle her funeral. You don’t have to worry about this. I’ll talk to Father about this as well.”
“I just realized that it actually hurts to see her go. I thought I’d feel happier… With so many things that happened in the past, I doubt she saw this coming.”
