Chapter 665: But You Didn’t Come Back “Huanhuan, we’re going home.” Ye Shuyun stroked the top of Yan Huan’s head like she was treating a child.

“Come on, let’s go home with mummy.”

Yan Huan stood up and she was brought to the car by Ye Shuyun. She was just like a puppet, following blindly on anyone’s order. However, the more she behaved this way, the more she made others worry and feel bad. She was a living person after all and she had her own thoughts and feelings.

However, her current situation was unbearable.

One was gone and the other one turned into this.

This was the Lu family’s biggest catastrophe and also an unrecoverable disaster.

Ye Shuyun and the nursemaid were walking closely beside Yan Huan every step of the way until they went home. When they stepped into the Lu family’s house, Little Bean walked over to her out of habit and started meowing upon seeing her.

Yan Huan stopped and looked down. Even though she was looking at the direction of the cat, she did not seem to notice the cat down at her feet. She lifted her leg and she had almost stepped on Little Bean.

Luckily, Little Bean was quick-witted. It immediately dodged away from its master’s feet but the little thing felt disappointed when it saw such response from her. It was quite pitiful.

Its master did not care about it anymore and this made it felt guilty.

Little Bean walked to its bed and licked its claws with its heart full of disappointment. However, it was still keeping an eye on its owner but sadly, its owner had never cared about it since the beginning.

“We’re back!” Lu Jin stood up and walked toward Yan Huan while reaching out his hand and patted her head, “It’s good that you’re back. Everything is well. Everything is all good now.”

Neither of them have a son currently and they would take Yan Huan as their last hope. Perhaps in the future, she won’t be a daughter-in-law anymore, but a daughter.

Yan Huan drooped her eyelids. She did not say a single word and yet the giant hand that was placed on her head was just so familiar. It was like Lu Yi patting her head, but it wasn’t Lu Yi.

Ye Shuyun was standing closely next to Lu Jin. It was just like what she once said, the Yan Huan now was exactly like a wooden puppet, totally emotionless. No matter how you talked to her, in the end, she would not return you the favour.

Lu Jin patted Yu Shuyun’s shoulder and comforted her, saying that everything would be alright. There was still time and she would definitely recover one day.

Ye Shuyun nodded. Yes, she would recover one day, and one day, even though their son would be forgotten by everyone else, but as a mother, she would never forget her own son.

Ye Shuyun tucked Yan Huan in and waited until she fell asleep before going out. She wanted to discuss what to cook for dinner with her maid. It was not actually an issue for them on what to eat but Yan Huan would only drink soup.

Of course, throughout these days, she knew that once Yan Huan went to sleep, under normal circumstances, she would not wake up and therefore, she would not have to worry about leaving her alone here.

Additionally, this was her home after all and not outdoors. Thus, she would never get lost again.

Unexpectedly, when Ye Shuyun left, Yan Huan opened her eyes while slowly getting out of her bed. She then sat there for half a day before placing both feet on the floor. She wasn’t wearing shoes.

She walked toward a nearby cabinet and reached out for a photo frame that was sitting on top. She placed the photo frame before her and gently touched it.

Inside the photo frame, was her and Lu Yi. She was leaning over Lu Yi’s shoulder while smiling into the camera. One could tell from her eyes how happy and blessed she was.

For someone who would rarely smile, Lu Yi’s lips were bent into a grin. The slight smile of his was enough to prove that he was actually as happy she was in the picture.

She placed the photo frame into her embrace and walked to the bed. She laid by the bedside for a while and then pulled the blanket over before falling asleep with her hands holding on to the photo frame.

The photo frame was ice cold, as if it had taken away the warmness off her skin. She placed the photo frame on her chest where it was closest to her heart. By using the temperature of her heart, she warmed up the photo frame.

She then closed her eyes and just breathed quietly. After this, she would just be living like a walking corpse.

Have you ever heard the sound of a heart breaking?

Yep, it was just like this.

It was undoubtedly the most beautiful yet most brutal sound in the world. A person’s world was completely destroyed just like that, leaving nothing but desolation.

There was no more color; no more sound.

All there was left was silence, and deep inside that, was the sound of a heart beating.

Ye Shuyun carefully opened the door and walked over with the nursemaid behind her holding a bowl of soup.

“Be careful. Don’t spill the soup.”

The nursemaid nodded. She placed the soup on the tabletop. Actually, this isn’t a plain and simple soup anymore. A lot of ingredients and nutrients had been added inside. It was starchy and muddled.

But there was no other choice because they could not allow her to only drink soup, for even though she would not die from drinking it, it would turn her into a ghost. Yan Huan had always been skinny and recently she was almost as thin as a paper. Her weight was not even 70kg.

“Madam, we should figure a way out. It’s not good for her to stay this way.”

“I know.” Ye Shuyun turned back and glanced at Yan Huan. However, this was all they could do at the moment. At least she was still willing to eat even though she only ate little by little.

“I think we should give her some space.” Ye Shuyun opened the door once again to leave the room with the nursemaid. However, they didn’t actually leave as they left a gap on the door while hiding outside to see if Yan Huan would drink the soup.

She would only feel relieved if she were to finish the soup. If Yan Huan was unable to absorb enough nutrients, then she would have to drink more often. Normal human being would have three meals per day to meet ones’ physiological needs. She believed that she could fill her up with more nutrients through drinking soup eight times per day.

She and the nursemaid were like thieves, doing the same thing every day.

As people said, parents will always care about their children, and this was precisely what was going on.

Inside the room, Yan Huan was still hugging the photo frame in her arms. She placed the photo frame on the table and lifted the bowl. It didn’t matter what was in the bowl. Even if it was medicine, she would drink it all up without leaving a drop. It was a shame that there wouldn’t be any poison in this world for her to drink and no one would feed her poison either. It would be great if the soup was poisonous because she would then be able to meet Lu Yi again.

“See.” She placed her soup on the table,

“I did follow your orders. I promised you that I would drink my soup and I did it, didn’t I? I’ve been good, right? You promised me that you would come back if I listened to your words.”

“But you didn’t come back.”

She picked up the photo frame again and continued hugging it.

She then turned over and lay down once again. Sometimes, being asleep was better than staying awake. Once you have fallen asleep, you won’t feel anything, and even if you die in your sleep, it would just be the end of your life.
