Yan Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xuanxuan were very familiar with the people in the class. When they heard their irrelevant discussion, they hurriedly interrupted their imagination.
"Hye-hee's boyfriend is not Yu Qiubai!" Yan Xiaoxiao shouted.
"Don't talk nonsense." Jiang Xuanxuan glanced at them.
It was impossible for the boys in the class to say that Shen Xi did not have feelings for her. She was good-looking, talented, and came from a powerful family. Who had not dreamed of pursuing her?
However, Shen Xi was not in school eight out of ten days. Even if they wanted to get close to her, pursue her, and show off in front of her, they had no chance.
At this moment, when the girls were discussing Shen Xi and Yu Qiubai's relationship, they did not say anything. However, when they heard Yan Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xuanxuan's clarification, they immediately perked up.
Shen Xi's boyfriend was not Yu Qiubai. Did this mean that they still had a chance to pursue their goddess?
However, the next moment, a gossipy girl in the class understood the meaning behind Yan Xiaoxiao's words. She hurriedly asked, "Then who is her boyfriend?"
They all knew Shen Xi's identity. After such a big commotion, how could they not know? Teacher Čení and Teacher Yun Qi were both her fans. Many people in the class were very interested in her affairs.
"Anyway, it's not Yu Qiubai. Don't talk nonsense." After Yan Xiaoxiao warned them, she took her bag and left with Jiang Xuanxuan.
The boys in the class were heartbroken. They clutched their hearts and looked disappointed. It turned out that their goddess already had a boyfriend. They did not know what kind of man was worthy of their goddess, who was so outstanding.
A few girls in the class caught up with the two of them and began to beat around the bush to find out who Shen Xi's boyfriend was.
Shen Xi left with Yu Qiubai. She did not know that after she left, there was a commotion in the class.
After getting into the car, she asked, "How is Auntie today?"
Yu Qiubai's eyes were solemn and filled with obvious pain. "Auntie Li just called to say that her condition is worse."
"Don't worry. It's normal for the illness to relapse." Shen Xi comforted him. She looked at him and asked, "Has she been stimulated recently? Or has she remembered something?"
With Mother Yu's illness, she couldn't stand being agitated or frightened. Perhaps she had thought of something, which caused her illness to suddenly worsen.
Yu Qiubai shook his head. "Mom's condition has improved a lot recently, and she's awake more often. She doesn't want me to watch over her every day, so I haven't spent much time with her in the past two months. I've checked the surveillance cameras at home, but I didn't find anything unusual."
Shen Xi responded and looked out of the window. She frowned slightly. If Mother Yu's illness continued to be erratic, she really didn't have any good ideas.
The two of them didn't say anything along the way until they reached the Yu Family.
Auntie Li was waiting at the door. When she saw the two of them, she hurriedly greeted them with an anxious expression. "Young Masters, Miss Shen, Madam, Madam has locked herself in her room. No one is allowed to enter."
Madam had turned off the lights and closed all the curtains. This reminded her of the period when her illness was at its worst.
"How long has it been?" Shen Xi asked.
"It's been two hours. I've been watching the surveillance cameras. Madam hasn't done anything special." Auntie Li looked at the screen of the phone in her hand. From the infrared camera, she could see the figure curled up in the corner, motionless.
Shen Xi glanced at her and nodded at her. She walked over and knocked on the door. She said gently, "Auntie Yu, I'm Shen Xi. Can I come in?"
The person in the surveillance camera didn't move at all. She seemed to have fallen asleep, or she seemed to have been immersed in her own world for a long time, blocking out all sounds from the outside world.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Shen Xi asked Auntie Li to bring the spare key over. When the key was inserted into the keyhole, the person in the surveillance camera suddenly raised her head and looked sharply in the direction of the door.
Auntie Li's expression suddenly changed. She was so nervous that she didn't know what to do. Her heart was in her mouth as she stared at the screen, afraid that she would overreact again.
Shen Xi's hand paused for a moment. Seeing that she was just staring in the direction of the door and didn't show any signs of flare-up, she felt relieved and continued to open the door.
The door opened. Yu Qiubai and Auntie Li both stood behind her. They held their breaths as they watched her push the door open.
Shen Xi stood at the door for a moment before she walked over to her quietly. Slowly, she squatted down in front of her.
Mother Yu was still looking at her. Her eyes had been fixed on her all this time. When she squatted down, she gently held her hand and stared at the ring on her finger for a long time. Suddenly, she started sobbing softly. Her body trembled violently as she sobbed.
"Auntie Yu." When Shen Xi saw her looking at the ring, she already knew what was going on. Seeing her cry, she asked, "Do you recognize this ring?"
When did she see it? She was sure that it was definitely not today, definitely not just now. Her gaze had been fixed on her hand from the beginning.
She had just put on the ring yesterday. When she came over last night, she should have seen it. She hadn't been unconscious the entire time.
Mother Yu was still crying. Her voice was filled with despair, hope, joy, and indescribable excitement. After a long time, she raised her head and looked into Shen Xi's eyes with her tear-stained face. Her voice was hoarse as she asked, "Is he … still alive?"
After she said this, her tears rolled down again. Her eyes were filled with emotions. There was nostalgia, sadness, pain, and the light of hope.
Yu Qiubai, who was standing at the door, suddenly widened his eyes. His hands, which were hanging by his side, clenched into fists. He knew that his mother was definitely related to Li Yuen. He hadn't been able to find out because he had always been afraid that his mother would find out. He was afraid that Li Yuen would find out about his mother's existence.
However, based on his mother's words, her relationship with Li Yuan was probably not that of an enemy. His mother was concerned about that man!
"Yes." Shen Xi nodded and looked at her. "He's alive. He's living well."
Mother Yu nodded as if she suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. She cried and laughed. "It's good that he's alive. It's good that he's alive. They're all dead. They all deserved to die. Are they all dead?"
Shen Xi didn't know anything about Li Yuen's past. She wouldn't ask him or reopen the deepest scar in his heart, but that didn't mean that she didn't want to know. "Who are they?"
Mother Yu only laughed. Her laughter grew louder and louder. "I deserve to die too. Everyone is an accomplice. They all deserve to die. Everyone deserves to die!"
