Chapter 1345: Chapter 1345: Unable Not to Grieve

When Mu Yan saw Mu Chen again, he was lying on the cold hospital bed, looking serene, as if he had passed peacefully.

Of course peacefully, when he was on the operating table, he was anesthetized, so there wouldn’t be any sensation.

Kneeling by the bedside, she raised her hand to stroke his pale, cold face, tears rolling down once more; she no longer needed to hide her emotions and dared not cry in front of him.

Because even if she cries, he can’t see it anymore.

"Chenchen, you promised your sister that you would always be with her, why are you breaking your word?" Mu Yan questioned.

The room was empty, the air eerily quiet, the cold breath penetrating the pores, as if the blood was about to freeze.

Mu Yan held Mu Chen’s face, no matter how she called him, he could no longer respond to her.

Clearly yesterday, he could still look at her and smile.

"Chenchen, don’t leave your sister," Mu Yan pleaded, "Your sister can’t live without you."

Luo Yao squatted on the other side, holding Mu Chen’s hand, crying continuously.

Last night they had talked so much; she had thought he was overthinking, comforting him to look on the bright side, who would have thought the outcome would be so cruel.

Mu Chen, how can you bear to leave me.

Her heart was filled with resentment, shouting in anger, but seeing his thin body, all the frustration quickly transformed into intense pity.

He really suffered; each onset of pain nearly took half his life away.

But he gritted his teeth and persevered; he wanted to live more than anyone else.

However, what was failing was his heart; no effort could withstand the result of his heart’s decline.

She remembered the words he had entrusted to her last night, holding back tears as she said, "Sis, perhaps this is a relief for him; he no longer has to lie in the hospital receiving treatment, and he finally gets the chance to see the outside world."

Early on, she knew that in Mu Chen’s heart, love wasn’t the most important existence in his life; Mu Yan was.

So, under any circumstances, he wouldn’t want her to be sad.

Mu Yan looked at Mu Chen’s face, her eyes blurred with tears.

Relief?

Yes, long ago Chenchen had expressed his desire to give up treatment.

She had persisted in refusing.

Also because of her insistence, Chenchen had endured hardships all along, facing death’s fear countless times, but he never disclosed this to her, often, he’d even comfort her.

So, was she being too selfish?

If she had known this was the outcome, shouldn’t she have listened to Chenchen earlier and allowed him to be relieved sooner?

Quickly, she dismissed this thought.

No, it’s not like this!

Chenchen lived, experienced not only painful things, he also had moments of happiness, didn’t he?

It’s just, this joy didn’t last, that’s the regret.

When Mu Yan came out of the ward, she had regained her composure, though traces of tears were still visible on her face.

She looked at Jiang Jingheng and said, "I want to take Chenchen home."

"Okay, I’ll arrange it immediately," Jiang Jingheng was deeply pained seeing her weary appearance.

She had not slept all night yesterday, her emotions almost collapsed today; he was greatly concerned about whether her body could endure.

Qin Xi walked over to comfort, saying, "Mu Yan, Chenchen cared for you the most; if you’re sad, he’ll also feel bad in heaven, take care of yourself."

As she said this, tears were uncontrollably flowing down.

In her view, Mu Yan was like a sister, and naturally Mu Chen was like a brother.

Mu Yan tried hard to force a smile but couldn’t manage it.

She also didn’t want to be sad, but couldn’t control it.

He was her brother, after all, her only brother.
