Chapter 4339: The Other Side 308

“Xiao Jie…”

Gong Jie looked rather surprised. “You’re awake already, Sister?” He pursed his lips, suddenly uneasy. Perhaps it was because he had taken Gong Fan away, and furthermore while she was unconscious. He waited for her outburst!

However, the expected anger did not come. He was surprised at her calmness.

“You’ve arrived at the Hurricane Group safely, have you?”

He was taken back that she had not chastised him.

“Where’s Gong Fan?”

“He’s here with me.” After a pause, he asked, “Aren’t you mad at me, Sister?”

On the other end of the line, the woman sighed in exasperation. “Why should I be mad at you, Xiao Jie? Haven’t you done enough for me?”

Gong Jie was suddenly speechless. He laughed at himself almost derisively. “I’m sorry. I don’t know what I’m able to do for you, really, but I know I’ve done my best.”

“I’ll go look for you at the Hurricane Group as soon as I’ve recovered, Xiao Jie. In the meantime, you must take good care of your nephew, eh?”

“Yes, I definitely will.”

“Uh huh…” Yun Shishi did not say much, but he could hear the desolation and exhaustion in her voice. She seemed to be holding something back and sounded a little hoarse.

Perhaps it was telepathy, but Gong Jie sensed that she seemed to have made some sort of significant decision.

“Sister…”

“Eh?”

“What’s on your mind?” Feeling rather concerned, Gong Jie walked to the side. “I get the feeling you’re worried about something.”

There was a long silence before she finally spoke. “If there’s really no other way, I’m really… I’m really willing to give up Gong Fan…”

She was not able to say more beyond these words. She wanted to laugh to hide her heartache, but she couldn’t. “I’m sorry to have worried you. All this time, all of you have indulged and spoiled me to the point that I’ve always forced my wishes on others. I’m sorry, Xiao Jie…”

“Don’t apologize.” Gong Jie bristled. “In what way are you being willful, Sister? You’ve been the sensible one since we were kids. You’d rather suffer on your own than have anyone else suffer. I’m the willful one. You’ve always tolerated me since we were little. I’m grown up now and I’m spoiling you. So what?”

He looked insufferably arrogant, as if no one in the world could stop him from being good to her.

Yun Shishi was touched. In what ways did she deserve to have a husband like Mu Yazhe, a brother like Gong Jie, and a pair of sensible sons like Youyou and Little Yichen!

“Thank you, but I’ve made my decision. I just hope to be responsible towards the boy and not have him suffer so much on my behalf.”

“How could this just be for yourself?” The man disagreed with her. “Youyou isn’t just suffering for you. He wants to co-exist with Gong Fan too, doesn’t he?”

She froze.

“Do you think he’s only protecting Gong Fan because of you? He once told me, he felt that he owed Gong Fan. All along, Gong Fan has suffered on his behalf. Therefore, what he’s suffering now, he is also suffering for the sake of Gong Fan.”

Yun Shishi kept silent for a long time.

“Don’t always blame yourself. None of you should decide for Youyou what he should be doing. He has his own mind.”
