Chapter 1047: Never, Ever Forget

Chapter 1047: Chapter 1047: Never, Ever Forget

Su Huan gazed at Zhu’er, but couldn’t utter a single word.

Being so in love with her, how could he bear to disappoint her?

"Brother Huan, you’ll never forget Zhu’er, right?" Zhu’er looked at Su Huan and asked once more.

Su Huan nodded: "Never, never will I forget."

"Brother Huan, I must go. The elder brother just gave me the chance to reincarnate in the underworld. In my next life, I will surely be happy. So Brother Huan must also be happy, so that Zhu’er can go on to happiness with peace of mind."

There were tears in Su Huan’s eyes that refused to fall. How he wished to reject her, how he wished to say, Zhu’er, let me accompany you, but he couldn’t.

He couldn’t let her be restless even at this final moment, it was the bond between them that gave him the chance to say goodbye to her, he couldn’t disappoint her anymore.

So, although it was heavy, very heavy, he finally nodded.

"Alright, Zhu’er must be happy, and Brother Huan will carry Zhu’er’s happiness forward."

These words brought Zhu’er the greatest reassurance and comfort, and she looked at him and happily smiled.

Then, reluctantly, she looked at him and Xia Wu: "Mother, Brother Huan, Zhu’er is leaving, please take care."

Both of them nodded, feeling a deep reluctance, yet Zhu’er’s figure still faded away, disappearing before them.

Xia Wu covered her mouth, tears streaming continuously through her fingers, her Zhu’er must, must be happy.

Han Jing and the others pushed open the door as Lianwu said: "She has already been taken away by the messenger of the underworld. As for her remains, you must settle them quickly so that she can reincarnate smoothly."

He certainly didn’t mention that reincarnation requires waiting in line, and before that, her spirit must continue to live in the underworld for some time, where expenses are also required. Though he did tell the underworld messenger due to acquaintanceship, he certainly couldn’t interfere in the affairs of the underworld, people have their own rules for handling matters, so what’s necessary must still be done.

Xia Wu nodded, her voice choked, as she spoke to Lianwu, "Thank you."

Han Jing felt a bit distressed for her, stepped forward to hug her: "Don’t worry, ending isn’t necessarily not beginning, everyone has their path to take, Zhu’er is a good girl, she will surely be rewarded in her next life."

For all these years, Xia Wu had carried everything on her own, never had anyone comforted her like this, and for a moment, she felt a collapse of her emotions that was difficult to control, leaning on Han Jing’s shoulder, tears soaking her clothes.

After a good while, Xia Wu finally lifted her head, wiped her tears, feeling somewhat embarrassed, said to Han Jing, "Sorry, really, really thank you."

"Don’t be formal with me. If Sister doesn’t mind, you can consider me a friend in the future. If there’s anything, you can tell me. Though I might not be able to help much, I will certainly be a good listener." Han Jing smiled at Xia Wu, his eyes serious.

Unexpectedly, Xia Wu nodded her head.

Even though they had just met on the first day, and it had only been a few hours, Han Jing seemed to have a natural affinity that, though she didn’t appear as a particularly warm person, gave people an inexplicable sense of trust and comfort.

She had been lonely for so many years, but for the first time, she felt the impulse to make a friend, a confidant to whom she could pour out her feelings.
