The Mu residence felt a lot quieter after Wang Hui passed away.
Xi Xiaye could sense a stifling atmosphere that made it difficult to breathe when she entered the living room.
Thud!
The sound of heavy footsteps came from the staircase, so she looked over and noticed Mu Lingshi coming down. Her red eyes seemed swollen from all the crying while her expression was pale and she looked exhausted.
Worried, Xi Xiaye quickly went over and held her arm. "You look terrible. Maybe you shouldn't move around too much. I'll help you back to your room to get some sleep. Be mindful of the baby inside you as you'll affect it if you don't rest well."
Mu Lingshi shook her head as she sobbed. Her voice became so hoarse that it sounded different than usual. "I'm fine. I can't sleep. I see Grandmother's face as soon as I close my eyes. She's in pain, but she couldn't say anything...Weren't things supposed to get better? Why did this happen?"
After several days of exhaustion and sleepless nights, Mu Lingshi was on the brink of breaking down. Ah Mo had been helping out with the funeral, so Ji Zitong was in charge of accompanying Mu Lingshi for the past two days. However, Su Chen and Ji Zitong had just gone back home not too long ago.
"We can only accept it now. I don't think Grandmother can rest in peace if you're like this. She was extremely concerned about your health when she was still around, wasn't she? Try not to overthink. I'll get you back to your room and I'll call you when dinner's ready," Xi Xiaye said firmly but gently.
"But..."
"No buts unless you want to make everyone worried about you! No matter what, taking care of yourself is the best thing to do for Grandmother's sake right now!" Xi Xiaye smiled at Mu Lingshi as she gave her belly a gentle pat. "Who knows? Grandmother might have turned into a star and be watching over you and your baby!"
Mu Lingshi put one hand on her belly as she stared blankly at Xi Xiaye like a lost girl who could not find her way home.
Xi Xiaye nodded. "She's gone, but our memories of her remain."
Mu Lingshi then gave up trying to convince Xi Xiaye, so she went back to bed and lay down. Xi Xiaye waited until she fell asleep before she left the room quietly.
"How is she? Is she asleep?" When Xi Xiaye left the room, she heard Ah Mo's anxious voice.
"She just fell asleep. You have to take good care of her. She's lost so much weight in just a few days. It'll definitely affect both her and the child if this goes on. Stay at home and spend some time with her. I'm sure she feels pressured and might get depression if she doesn't handle it well. I'll talk to your brother regarding work." Xi Xiaye was notably concerned.
Ah Mo was stunned for a moment. "Alright then. Thank you, Sister-in-law."
"Let's go down. I doubt she'll wake up anytime soon. Where's your brother?" She was heading down the stairs.
"He's talking to father in the study room. By the way, Elder CEO Shen called just now. Brother took the call, but he didn't tell him about Grandmother," Ah Mo reminded her.
Pausing, she then nodded. "Alright."
Mu Tangchuan and Mu Yuchen had a long conversation in the study room and only came out when dinner was ready. However, they both did not look very pleased.
All of them were not in the mood for a meal. They barely had the appetite after several bites. Mu Yinan and Mu Lingshi did not come downstairs. Since it was difficult for the two of them to fall asleep after going through such a heartbreaking experience, the others did not want to bother them.
