4568 The Other Side 537

The actor stared at her in a daze and remained silent for a long time.

Alice asked, “Isn’t it a blissful thing to be with someone you like and who likes you back?”

…

In the hospital.

After hanging out the washing, Yun Shishi sat at the balcony and leaned back in a daze. Mu Yazhe walked over and wrapped his arms around her from behind, gently resting his head on her shoulder.

“What’s wrong? What’s on your mind?”

“I was wondering… how long it would take for a vaccine to be created.”

Mu Yazhe could not help laughing at that. “It’s not like it can be implemented tomorrow just because you want it.”

“But… I’m still saying a silent prayer!”

“Who do you pray to? Jesus? Or Buddha?” The man paused for a moment before continuing, “As the saying goes, if you’re sincere, it’ll work. If you’re not devout, how can the heavens hear your prayers?”

“Uh huh…”

He stroked her hair gently. “Well, let’s not dwell on it. I’m just as worried as you are, but… worrying won’t help.”

“Uh huh…” She was distracted nevertheless.

He kissed her cheek and drew her gently into his embrace.

“It’s your birthday tomorrow.”

“Ahhh…” It slowly dawned upon her. “My birthday?”

“Yes, have you been so busy taking care of the little ones that you forgot your own birthday?”

She replied, “How can I still be in the mood to celebrate my birthday at this critical juncture?”

“You still have to celebrate your birthday. This is not that we’re building happiness on Little Yichen’s suffering, but to persevere in the hope of life in the face of adversity.” He continued, “Besides, your birthday is also very meaningful. When the time comes, bake a cake and send it to Little Yichen. Although he can’t be by your side for your birthday this year, you have to tell him that we hope he won’t miss the celebrations next year, the year after, and every birthday after that!”

“Uh huh!” She nodded, and before she knew it, her face was wet with tears.

The house felt cold and empty when they returned from the hospital. It was probably because they had not been home for a long time. The long absence somehow made it seem lifeless. Yun Shishi quickly turned on the lights in all the rooms. The bright light finally brought back a hint of life to the cheerless house.

After parking the car, Mu Yazhe walked into the house. Looking at the lights in the house, he finally felt a trace of warmth.

It had become a norm for him to move among just those few places. The hospital, the office, and home. Normally Yun Shishi would be at the hospital. When he came home from the office, he’d only use the bedroom. As Yun Shishi was not at home, he basically settled his three meals a day in the company cafeteria.

Lu Jinyu and Jiang Shen were surprised to notice their boss frequenting the company cafeteria these days.

Didn’t Sister-in-law cook?

Looking at the man’s downcast expression, they wondered if the couple had been fighting? That was impossible. They were clearly very loving and respected each other.

They could vaguely tell that the man had a lot on his mind recently and was a little distracted when it came to company matters. However, Mu Yazhe did not tell them anything. They did not dare pry either.

To Yun Shishi, he was a husband. To the twins, he was a father. Only in the office was he a man of flesh and blood. He would worry, he would feel upset. His eyes would turn bloodshot when thought of Little Yichen.
