Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 2 (65)
Chapter 65 Wake
After Mrs. Xia passed away, the two Xia brothers sent the ashes back to the Xia family’s old house.
Within a few days, there was an endless stream of relatives and friends who came to express their condolences. Even Li Mo and Ji Qin, two big stars in the entertainment industry who are currently very popular, took time out of their busy schedules to come.
The two of them traveled without faces and dressed very low-key. They tried their best to avoid being recognized when entering the house.
After everyone left one after another, Li Mo had the opportunity to find Xia Liang alone and sit with him for a while.
Li Mo didn’t know about Xia Liang’s pregnancy and childbirth. Hearing that Xia Liang had been in bed for several months, he thought he had been stabbed in the abdomen by Gu Yuexuan. He felt annoyed and regretful, feeling that Xia Liang’s disaster was entirely due to Himself was implicated for no reason.
After the incident, Gu Yuexuan had part of his memory erased by Wen Ping. During the trial, he was incoherent, sometimes laughing and sometimes cursing. He was suspected of having mental problems. In the end, he was not sent to prison, but was sent to jail. Mental hospital.
But at this moment, both of them had a tacit agreement to avoid talking about Gu Yuexuan.
The sound of Ji Qin teasing Xia Xia came from the living room. Li Mo glanced at Xia Xia and saw that there was no woman who looked like her mother around her, so he considered and asked: “I heard that you recognize Xia Xia.” Daughter, is this true?”
Xia Liang’s eyes lingered on Xia Xia: “Xia Xia doesn’t recognize her, she is my daughter.”
Li Mo was slightly surprised. He had known Xia Liang for so many years, and he had never seen such a gentle look on his face like now.
Li Mo sighed and said with some emotion: “You have changed.”
”how?”
”You used to give me the impression that you were a workaholic, supporting the entire Xia family with your own responsibilities and obligations. But now,” Li Mo looked at Xia Liangfan, “I think you look more popular. ”
Xia Liang smiled and did not answer. Xia Xia’s background was too sensitive, and he was always careful not to say a word.
”What about you?” Xia Liang changed the topic, glanced at Ji Qin who was having a quarrel with Xia Xia in the living room, and asked, “What has been the situation between you and Ji Qin these years?”
The two became an instant hit after they collaborated on a drama four years ago. Although they rarely had the chance to work together again when they filmed separately, they have always had a good relationship in private.
But…it’s just good.
Years ago, Ji Qin came out publicly in front of the media and claimed that he already had a sweetheart.
So the media and the public speculated whether the sweetheart he was talking about was Li Mo, who had been fired against him for several years and his popularity as a CP has never waned.
Regarding this speculation, neither party involved has responded directly. Ji Qin, contrary to his open attitude when he came out, kept his mouth shut when mentioning his sweetheart and refused to reveal a word.
When Xia Liang asked about it, Li Mo shook his head and laughed: “Don’t listen to the media’s gossip. Ji Qin and I are good friends.”
Xia Liang asked in confusion: “Then why do you avoid this question so many times?”
Li Mo held his forehead and said helplessly: “That kid Ji Qin is using me as a shield.”
Xia Liang was stunned: “Ji Qin said it himself?”
”yes!”
”Do you believe what he said?”
”Why don’t you believe it?” Li Mo looked innocent.
Xia Liang asked again: “Then do you know who his sweetheart is?”
”This…he didn’t say anything.”
”You never asked him?”
This is his personal privacy. If he doesn’t want to talk about it, I shouldn’t be too gossipy, right? ”
Xia Liang suddenly sympathized with Ji Qin, and used roundabout tactics on Li Mo, which was simply a trick.
Three days later, the Xia family closed its doors and thanked guests.
Xia Liang kept vigil for Mrs. Xia as her eldest grandson.
According to the rules of the Xia family ancestors, when an elder passes away, the immediate descendants must stay in front of the spirit for seven days and seven nights.
When Xia’s father passed away two years ago, Mrs. Xia felt sorry for her two grandchildren and did not let them kneel in front of the funeral. Now that Mrs. Xia has passed away, Xia Liang decided to make up for it along with Xia’s father’s share.
The old lady believed in Buddhism during her lifetime, so he personally copied scriptures in front of her soul to pray for blessings and salvation for the deceased.
When he finished copying a volume, he looked up and found that Xia Lin walked in at some point and stayed by his side silently.
Xia Liang said: “I kneel here to pray for blessings and atone for my sins. You don’t have to accompany me like this.”
Xia Lin knew it and asked: “Pray, I can be with you. As for atonement, what sin do you want to atone for?”
Xia Liang sighed quietly: “I have promised many things to grandma, but few of them have been truly fulfilled. Even the great-granddaughter she recognized before her death, I did not tell the truth to her.”
Xia Lin knew that Xia Liang felt guilty because he failed to fulfill his promise to the old lady regarding marriage and heirs.
In the early years, Mrs. Xia had repeatedly urged her to get married, but Xia Liang kept her in the dark. Later, Xia Liang got pregnant unexpectedly and gave birth to a child whose origin was unknown to outsiders, and she was even more unable to explain to the old lady.
Over the years, Xia Liang stayed in other places for various reasons in order to avoid the old lady. He rarely had time to go home to visit her within a year. Once the old lady mentioned the important matter of marriage, he would find an excuse to run away.
Now that two elders of the Xia family have passed away one after another, and the blade hanging above Xia Liang’s head has disappeared, he does not feel relaxed and relieved. He only feels that he will always owe his elders an explanation when it comes to heirs.
Grandma will forgive you,” Xia Lin gently held Xia Liang’s hand and comforted, “At least she saw Xia Xia before she died, and it was obvious that she really liked Xia Xia. ”
Xia Liang sighed, what he called atonement was actually far from that. There were just some words that he hadn’t decided yet on how to say to Xia Lin.
Xia Lin didn’t know what he thought of. He looked at the spirit tablet and murmured to himself: “Actually, I am very satisfied that grandma can live for so many more years.”
”Live for so many more years?” Xia Liang frowned, feeling that there was something in Xia Lin’s words.
Xia Lin came to his senses and realized that he had let something slip, so he shook his head and ignored the topic.
He and Song Yan were reborn, and not only changed their own destiny, but also changed the destiny of many people around them. The Xia family business was brought back to life, and Old Mrs. Xia lived many years longer than in the previous life. The eldest grandson is worried about her marriage, but most of the time, she lives far healthier and happier than in her previous life.
Xia Lin felt that he was worthy of many people around him, but he was only worthy of Xia Liang – if they had not relived their lives, there would not have been a collision of planes, and Xia Liang and Zhou Shuo would not have gone off track in so many ways because of genetic mapping. things.
The two brothers each had their own thoughts, and then they said in unison: “That…”
The two of them were startled at the same time, and Xia Lin laughed: “You go ahead and say it first.”
Xia Liang was about to speak when he suddenly heard Zhou Shuo’s voice from outside the door: “Mr. Ying, it’s too late now. The master of the house is keeping vigil behind closed doors. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to barge in like this?”
