Chapter 455 Yes, in your sea of consciousness
In the quiet and warm villa in Goldsmith Bay, every corner is filled with the atmosphere of home.
The dim light is like a layer of gauze, gently falling on every corner of the bedroom, adding a touch of softness and tranquility to the space.
The big white bed looked particularly comfortable under the light. Mu Xiaoji lay quietly on it, but his face looked a little pale and his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was still suffering from physical discomfort.
Prior to this, Mu Xiaoji had devoted himself to arranging an application for Jiang Hao to leave prison and visit his relatives. He neglected sleep and food all day long, and his body finally couldn't bear the burden and he suffered from severe stomach pain.
Seeing him like this, Gu Qinming felt so distressed that she quickly sent him back home, fearing that something might happen to him and she would have to explain to Mr. Song.
The thick night sky was like a huge piece of black silk, covering the sky above the villa. The surroundings were quiet and silent, with only the occasional sound of car horns in the distance, which further highlighted the tranquility of the night.
After Mu Xiaoji took the stomach medicine, he fell into a deep sleep under the effect of the medicine. Xiao Yue sat quietly beside the bed, her eyes gentle and focused, always on Mu Xiaoji's face.
Time seemed to stand still, and the only sound in the room was the even breathing of the two people.
Suddenly, the corners of Mu Xiaoji's mouth rose slightly, revealing a brilliant smile. That smile was like a flower blooming in spring, pure and beautiful.
Then, he murmured softly: "Little monster, it's the little monster there."
Xiao Yue was slightly stunned, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. She couldn't help but move closer, wanting to hear clearly what Mu Xiaoji said next.
In Mu Xiaoji's dream, he was strolling unsteadily along a clear river.
The warm sunshine covered the entire riverbed unreservedly, and the river water sparkled as if countless tiny diamonds were shining.
Not far away, the familiar little bamboo house still stands quietly in the lush woods, as if silently telling the story of the two people in the past.
On a big rock by the river, the little monster Jiang Chengyu was wearing a white robe and his long hair was tied up in a crown, looking very elegant.
He held his head gracefully, lying quietly on a big rock, his eyes closed, resting.
Next to him was a fishing rod, with the fishing line hanging in the water, swaying gently in the breeze.
The fish basket was placed in the shallows nearby, with two carps swimming freely in it, occasionally causing a few small ripples.
Mu Xiaoji looked out and saw the scene in the fish basket, his eyes full of surprise and attachment. He approached the big rock lightly, as if he was afraid to disturb the beauty in front of him.
Then, he lay sideways behind Jiang Chengyu, reached out his hand, carefully picked up a strand of Jiang Chengyu's long hair, and then gently brushed it across Jiang Chengyu's nose.
Jiang Chengyu was enjoying the warm sun leisurely, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
However, I suddenly felt my nose itchy, followed by a sneeze and a slight tremor in my body.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoji quickly stopped his funny actions and a look of nervousness appeared on his face.
He looked at Jiang Chengyu's lazy look as he didn't want to open his eyes, and the mischievousness in his heart came out again, so he changed his position and continued to gently brush his ears with his hair.
Jiang Chengyu seemed a little impatient. He stretched out his hand to drive away the troublemaker, dug his ear hole with his slender fingers, and then continued to immerse himself in the warmth of the sun, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Seeing that Jiang Chengyu still ignored him, Mu Xiaoji suddenly felt a little bored. He pouted and prepared to get up and leave.
The moment he stood up, the stone he was holding on to suddenly fell empty, his body lost balance, and he fell off the rock.
His heart was filled with fear, and his body fell rapidly in the air. However, at this critical moment, Jiang Chengyu quickly turned around, hugged Mu Xiaoji, and fell under the stone.
Mu Xiaoji lay heavily on Jiang Chengyu's body, and the sounds of their heartbeats intertwined, as if playing a tense and moving piece of music.
Mu Xiaoji stood up nervously, pulled Jiang Chengyu up with both hands, his eyes full of worry and concern, and asked nervously:
"Little monster, how are you? I didn't hurt you, did I? Get up and let me see."
Jiang Chengyu had a sunny smile on his face, his eyes were gentle and firm, he looked at Mu Xiaoji and said: "Xiaoji, I'm really fine, don't be nervous."
After saying that, he flew beautifully and jumped onto the big rock like a light swallow.
As he spoke in a relaxed manner, he picked up the fishing rod, looked at the fish basket and said, "Xiaoji, do you want to eat fish? I caught another big one. How about making soup for you?"
Mu Xiaoji looked up at the tall figure of the little monster, his face filled with a happy smile, that smile seemed to be able to dispel all the haze in the world.
"Little monster, please come back! I miss you so much." There was a hint of sob in Mu Xiaoji's voice, as if the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were finally released at this moment.
"Xiao Ji, you are not feeling well again, right? Every time you are sick, you come to the river to find me." Jiang Chengyu's voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, and he seemed to know everything about Mu Xiaoji.
"No, I'm fine now, but without you whispering in my ear, I..."
Mu Xiaoji's tears rolled down his eyes and his throat seemed to be choked by something. His words were intermittent but full of deep longing.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoji, I really can't go back. Otherwise, how could I bear to leave you!"
A trace of pain and helplessness flashed in Jiang Chengyu's eyes, and his voice became low.
When Mu Xiaoji heard this, he was excited and said loudly, "Then I will stay. Can I stay?"
His eyes were full of anticipation, as if as long as Jiang Chengyu agreed, he would stay without hesitation.
"You don't belong here. When you get better tomorrow, your dream will end!"
There was a hint of sadness in Jiang Chengyu's voice. He looked at Mu Xiaoji with reluctance in his eyes.
Mu Xiaoji felt the surrounding environment, everything was so real, he wondered: "Dream? Is this a dream?"
Jiang Chengyu turned around and looked at Xiaoji under the stone, his eyes full of tenderness, and smiled lightly, "Yes, in your sea of consciousness."
Mu Xiaoji asked: "If I use drugs to keep myself asleep, can I be with you forever?"
His eyes were full of determination, as if he was ready to do anything for love.
Jiang Chengyu suddenly turned around and looked at Mu Xiaoji with angry eyes. There was a flame of anger burning in his eyes. He said angrily:
"Xiao Ji, how can you be so selfish? Jiang Shuo is still young, and I can't take care of him now. He is your son, how can you just leave him alone?"
His voice was full of reproach, as if reminding Mu Xiaoji of his responsibilities as a father.
Mu Xiaoji said excitedly: "Little Monster, he listens to you very much. He has the same habit as you every day, practicing morning lessons regardless of rain or shine. I had a few discussions with him that day.
Apart from being young and having no combat experience, he is honest and simple by nature, and has no intention of harming anyone. I was able to capture him only because of my combat experience. Once I give him a chance, he will be one of the best. "
There was a hint of pride in Mu Xiaoji's words. He looked at Jiang Chengyu, hoping to get his approval.
Jiang Chengyu calmed down some of his anger, and he said with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "You and I are no longer together, there is no need to cling on." After that, he leaped up and flew towards the jungle in the mountains like an eagle spreading its wings.
Mu Xiaoji wanted to fly after him, but his martial arts skills were not working for him at this moment. No matter how hard he tried, he could not make himself fly.
He desperately chased along the river, his eyes full of anxiety and despair. He looked everywhere for a way to cross to the other side, but he could not find it.
Finally, he fell and sat down by the river. He felt as if countless knives were cutting his heart. He looked so helpless and heartbroken.
Xiao Yue looked at Mu Xiaoji quietly beside the bed. He saw beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead rolling down his cheeks. He was clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, as if he was struggling with something painful.
He kept shouting "little monster" in his voice, and his voice was full of pain and longing. Xiao Yue sat by the bed and took in every word of the conversation, including the one in his dream.
Her heart was filled with sympathy and worry. She reached out her hands, gently held Mu Xiaoji's hands, and whispered, "Master, Master, wake up."
Her voice was gentle yet powerful, as if it could pull Mu Xiaoji back from his painful dream.
Mu Xiaoji suddenly woke up, quickly grabbed Xiao Yue's arm with both hands and shouted: "Little Monster, don't leave..."
When he saw clearly that the person beside the bed was Xiao Yue, a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, and then he gasped and asked: "Sister Xiao Yue, why are you here?"
Xiao Yue used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Mu Xiaoji's cheek. Her movements were gentle and careful. She said softly, "You looked very bad when you came back in the evening. Madam was worried that something had happened to you, so she asked me to stay here with you."
"You're here to take care of me, but what about grandma? She can't live without you." Mu Xiaoji's heart was full of worries. He looked at Xiao Yue with a hint of concern in his eyes.
"Grandma went to rest after dinner and doesn't need me anymore." Xiao Yue said with a smile, her smile was warm and kind.
After saying that, she turned around and walked to the coffee table and poured a cup of hot water. "Young Master, have a drink of water!" Mu Xiaoji took the cup and drank it all in one breath, as if the cup of water could ease the pain in his heart.
Xiao Yue looked at Mu Xiaoji, hesitated for a moment, and then asked softly: "Did you dream about Young Master Jiang?"
Mu Xiaoji nodded, his eyes still immersed in the dream just now, as if he had not yet come out of those beautiful memories.
Xiao Yue carefully considered his words and asked cautiously: "Master, do you dislike Chou Bao? Because..."
Xiao Yue's eyes flickered and she didn't dare to look directly into Mu Xiaoji's eyes. Her heart was filled with uneasiness, as if she was afraid to hear the answer that she didn't want to hear.
"Because I am just a nanny and I am fifteen years older than you. You can't accept that. So, for the sake of Choubao, can you respectfully call me Sister Xiao Yue?"
Mu Xiaoji looked at Xiao Yue and listened to her hesitant questions, feeling a surge of emotion in his heart.
He responded calmly: "I don't dislike Choubao, he is very sensible and excellent. It is me who is unworthy of being his father. Not only did I fail to take good care of him, I also made things difficult for him everywhere."
There was a hint of self-blame in Mu Xiaoji's voice. He looked at the cup in his hand, as if reflecting on his own mistakes.
She continued to mutter: "You and I are just ordinary people, there is no difference between us. I feel greatly insulted by the surrogacy issue.
But in comparison, you are the one who is really wronged. As a man, I am the most cowardly guy. "Mu Xiaoji's words were full of sincerity, and he looked at Xiao Yue with apology in his eyes.
"No, Master; in my eyes, you are the most amazing, the greatest... a real man."
Tears flashed in Xiaoyue's eyes. She looked at Mu Xiaoji and said firmly.
Her voice was full of admiration and trust, as if Mu Xiaoji was an omnipotent hero in her heart.
On this quiet night, the conversation between the two echoed in the room, as if the knot that was tied long ago had a chance to be untied now.
