Chapter 1016 Finale (Part )

Yun Ci stood beside the bed and deliberately lowered her arms so that Nangong Mu could fully see the little one in her arms.

Nangong Mu slowly and laboriously raised his arm, which was as thin as a dead branch, and looked towards the little man in Yun Ci's arms.

His lips trembled slightly, and a hoarse and dull sound came out from the breathing mask.

"Nuan Nuan."

This is Nuannuan, his Nuannuan.

His old hand touched Jun Duo's soft little hand very carefully, for fear of hurting her who was so fragile.

At this time, Jun Duonuan opened her little hand, and as if in some kind of response, she tightly grasped one of Nangong Mu's fingers in her palm.

Nangong Mu's cloudy pupils trembled as he stared at his and Jun Duonuan's clasped hands. There seemed to be thousands of words in his eyes, and all kinds of emotions surging in them, but he couldn't even utter a word.

He waited for fifty years, and the long years seemed endless. He spent one dark night after another, endured spring, summer, autumn and winter, and finally waited for this meeting.

He remembered that Nuannuan asked him to grow old slowly and wait for her.

But it turns out...he is already so old.

He still remembered that he had promised her that he would grow up with her.

but…

The little one in the cradle opened her pair of blinking eyes, staring at Nangong Mu on the hospital bed with pure and unadulterated gaze, feeling a little strange and a little curious. She didn't know who he was. She was like a blank sheet of paper, washed clean of all the memories about them.

Her palm was still tightly holding his fingers, not loosening at all.

Nangong Mu looked at the little guy's dark eyes. Once upon a time, these eyes were curved in front of him, with the happiest smile.

Fifty years, he dared not forget, could not forget. But...

Nangong Mu's old voice sounded slowly.

"But... Nuannuan, I can no longer... grow up with you."

At this point, his last breath finally flowed out from the corner of his lips and turned into a moan. Then, he closed his eyes and died.

The fingers slipped from Jun Duonuan's palm and fell heavily.

In an instant, the alarms of the instruments used to detect life all around began to beep.

His last sigh before leaving contained so much regret and unwillingness.

How he wanted to watch Nuannuan grow up, watch her learn to speak, watch her take her first steps, watch her enter the school. He would send her to school in the morning glow and pick her up from school in the evening breeze. He would sit at her desk and help her with her homework, and when her rebellious period came, he would calm all her bad emotions.

Then, after she graduates, he will hold her hand and say, "Nuannuan, marry me."

Leaving the ward, the old man looked at the child in Yun Ci's arms, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It turns out that there really is a girl like Jun Duonuan in this world."

Yun Ci was confused: "What do you mean?"

The old man sighed faintly and said, "Our old man... has never married or had children in his life. When he was young, the elders above him asked him to marry the daughter of a noble family and let him continue the Nangong family's lineage, but he resisted to the death and even threatened to die.

He said that he was waiting for someone, a girl named Jun Duonuan, who once lived in Nangong's house, had been in love with him, had put on a ring with him, and had made a vow that one day, she would come back.

However, no one in the entire Nangong family knew this Miss Jun Duonuan. Even I don’t remember such a person appearing beside him. I even searched secretly but found nothing. "
