After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 499

Chapter 499: Chapter 499 Epilogue (4): Shengsheng finally meets Shi Xiche

The reason for wanting to return to the Shi Family is simple.

First, to visit Shi Yuwei who has awakened.

Secondly... to see those two innocent children, Shi Luoyu and Shi Luochen, after Lin Fangling’s death.

On the way to the Shi Family, Shi Muchuan said, "Since Yuwei woke up, there hasn’t been anything unusual. She just says she can’t remember what happened in the banquet hall."

"She originally wanted to come with us to see you, but I persuaded her to stay home and rest well."

"It’s quite strange when you think about it. I know Yuwei had some issues with you before. But when she heard you were in a coma, she seemed genuinely worried."

"As for Xiao Yu and Chenchen..."

Shi Muchuan sighed softly, "Aunt Fang’s sudden death was unannounced. Although she made mistakes involving Chenchen before, she was still the mother of those two children."

"The two kids have been quite affected. Xiao Yu, who is sensitive, just sat alone quietly at Aunt Fang’s funeral. As for Chenchen, he doesn’t understand anything and has been in a daze these past few days under the care of the nanny."

Hearing this, Lu Sheng couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

The next second, Li Muchen, sitting beside her, covered her hand with his own.

Li Muchen knew his lover too well. Seeing her sadness, he extended his arm to embrace and comfort her.

Lu Sheng was well aware that Lin Fangling had died a long time ago, and it was only because the green fox possessed her that she lived until now.

The fact of their mother’s death was something those two children had to face, something they should have faced long ago.

But there’s no way around it.

Even a god cannot bring the dead back to life, as it would go against the natural order of the human realm.

When they arrived at the Shi Family, the two children were already asleep.

Lu Sheng went to the children’s room for a look and saw that they were sleeping quite soundly.

She gently placed the gifts she brought on the room’s table, patted their heads softly, and watched them for a moment before leaving.

In fact, the gifts themselves didn’t matter.

She came tonight just to tell the two children that she is their sister, their family. Even without their mother in the future, she would still love and care for them.

Then, Lu Sheng went to Shi Yuwei’s room.

Lu Sheng remembered half a year ago in Jiang City, when she had been taken to the police station because of Jiang Yusheng’s incident, Shi Suyu had told her something.

She said that ever since Shi Yuwei woke up from surgery the previous year, she seemed different from before. Though she still appeared simple and kind, she often seemed a bit deliberate.

In the room, although it wasn’t the first time Lu Sheng had seen Shi Yuwei’s body, it was truly the first time seeing Shi Yuwei as a person.

Before, she feigned innocence; now, her eyes genuinely shone with clarity. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Even though she had brothers before, this was the first time in her life she had a sister.

To have such a good and outstanding sister like Lu Sheng, and to attend the same university and major with her, she felt truly fortunate!

After finishing her chat with Shi Yuwei, seeing her pure and kind demeanor, Lu Sheng felt relieved of another worry.

After leaving the room, Shi Muchuan and Li Muchen were in the study, making the entire Shi Family villa seem large, quiet, and empty, with the corridor lights somewhat dim.

However, as Lu Sheng turned, she bumped into a figure looking at her from not far away.

A... very handsome, yet seemingly indifferent young man.

In the faint, orange light above, a hazy halo spread. It cast a shallow golden glow on his slender figure.

His skin was fair, wearing a black cotton shirt. The sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and the top buttons were left undone, casually revealing a bit of collarbone.

The fringe partially covered his brows and eyes, but one could still discern his slightly furrowed brows, with eyes deep as ink exuding a hint of indifference and scrutiny.

The entire person emitted a dangerous, cold aura that kept strangers at bay. Too distant, like a poppy on a high ridge, unreachable by anyone.

It was instinct, perhaps.

Although she had never seen him before, not even in photos, Lu Sheng was momentarily startled and directly called out his name: "Shi Xiche... brother?"
