Chapter 1055 - Owing a Kiss
“Xuanji! Xuanji, where are you?” Lu Jinwen shouted loudly, looking for her everywhere.
As he continued to shout, his heart sank, feeling as though he had fallen into an abyss and he felt cold all over.
Xuanji!
His Xuanji!
He suddenly heard a sensual voice behind him. “Mr Lu, I’m here!”
Lu Jinwen was surprised, he quickly turned back to look. Lin Xuanji stood along the corridor of the villa, the faint lights shining over her.
She just stood there.
Lu Jinwen’s pupils contracted, he felt as though he had returned to that very first time they met in the temple all those years ago. She wore a red wool cloak, the color so striking as she stood behind him and shouted, “Hey, Mr Lu!”
But the next moment, she felt something soft on her lips again. Lu Jinwen had kissed her once again.
Lin Xuanji froze, just looking at her.
He fixed his sharp yet doting gaze on her. “Now you owe me.”
“…”
“I kissed you once more so now you owe me a kiss.”
Lin Xuanji’s heart fluttered, she felt so loved inside and those sweet feelings almost overwhelmed her.
“I’m really leaving now. It’s cold outside, hurry up and go back inside the house.” Lu Jinwen let go of Lin Xuanji, turning around to get in the limousine.
Butler Ye opened the door and the limousine sped away after Lu Jinwen got in it.
He left.
Lin Xuanji stood along the corridor, continuing to watch as the limousine left. She watched as he left. Very quickly, her vision turned blank and she collapsed.
“Mom!”
Right before her eyes closed, she could see Mohan, Mo’er and Chenyi rushing towards her.
…
In the room.
Lin Xuanji gradually opened her eyes. She lay on the bed, in the last moments of her life. Looking beside her, her daughter and son were both accompanying her by her bedside.
“Mo’er.” Lin Xuanji stretched her arm out while calling Tang Mo’er’s name.
“Mom.” Tang Mo’er held Lin Xuanji’s hand, tears trickling down her face as she sobbed. “Mom, could you please… not leave?”
“Silly child, you’re now a mom yourself. You must not cry so frequently, understood?”
“Don’t…” Tang Mo’er shook her head vehemently. “With mom here, I’ll always be a child…”
“Mo’er.” Gu Mohan went in front, pulling Tang Mo’er into his warm embrace.
“Mohan.” Lin Xuanji held Gu Mohan’s hand, placing Tang Mo’er’s hand in his palm. “Mom no longer needs to worry about Mo’er now, since Mo’er has you. Mohan, Mom is going to hand Mo’er to you, you have to take good care of her.”
Gu Mohan nodded and said, “Mom, I’ll be sure to dote on her as if she’s a child, on your behalf.”
Lin Xuanji smiled. She was right about Gu Mohan, he was a man who knew her exact thoughts. This man was self-disciplined and knew how to love the people around him. With him around, she would never be worried about Mo’er.
Lin Xuanji lifted her head, looking in Tang Chenyi’s direction. “Chenyi.”
Tang Chenyi had been standing by her bedside, but compared to Tang Mo’er who kept sobbing, he appeared more calm and composed.
“Mom.” Tang Chenyi held Lin Xuanji’s hand.
Lin Xuanji looked at Tang Chenyi worriedly. “Chenyi, Mom is the most worried about you. It’s not because you’re not powerful enough, but rather, because you’re too powerful. Those who are powerful are bound to cause harm to themselves. You most probably inherited your father’s personality traits.”
Tang Chenyi truly resembled Lu Jinwen, even exceeding him in some ways.
“But you’re a little different from your father. Your father seems really heartless and callous, but he’s been faithful all his life. He has that soft spot in his heart, but you on the other hand don’t know about love and affection.”
Lin Xuanji handed something to Tang Chenyi. “This is for you.”
Tang Chenyi lowered his eyes to see, it was a diamond ring.
“My Love. Chenyi, this is for the woman you love in the future.”
Lin Xuanji had founded DHA Diamonds and only designed one diamond ring in her entire lifetime. It was the One and Only Ring. The One and Only Ring was the testament to Gu Mohan and Tang Mo’er’s love.
Now Lin Xuanji had designed only one other diamond ring, named My Love. She had prepared it for the woman that Tang Chenyi would fall in love with in the future.
Hearing her words, Tang Chenyi’s eyes slowly turned red, and he accepted the diamond ring and nodded. “Mom, I’ll make sure to bring this ring with me everywhere I go.”
