Jiang Xiu knelt on the ground dejectedly, looking at the fires all over the mountains, tears kept falling, but her throat seemed to be blocked and she couldn't make any sound.

Joshua had no expression on his face, but his fingers were tightly clamped together. His nails pierced the flesh and blood, and he didn't care at all. He looked at Gao Shan, who was swallowed by the flames, and after a long time, he half-kneeled in front of Jiang Xiu, pressed her shoulders, and said, "Stop crying."

But Jiang Xiu couldn't stop her tears at all. She grabbed Joshua's hand and her voice was hoarse: "Why did you take me away... Why?!"

"Because she wants you to live." Joshua said calmly: "This is her wish."

Jiang Xiu choked and said, "Why should she always make choices for me? Why?!"

Joshua closed his eyes and said, "Mother actually noticed your thoughts. She wanted to use a more gentle method to make you give up. It was not until you found Mefitar III that she realized that the barrier between you was like a natural barrier. She could not convince you, nor could you convince her. Her body was already very bad and could not hold on. If she died, Wei Ke and Lan Jinyu would definitely attack you. She was afraid that you would not be able to deal with them, so she tacitly agreed to your approach."

"Since this day will happen sooner or later, when she is still alive, she will protect you more or less."

"And things really seemed to be what she expected," Joshua whispered, "She has smoothed all the obstacles for you."

The fire on the mountain is still burning, like the closing ceremony of a grand drama. It must be remembered forever before it can be stopped. At this moment, the heaven seems to mourn for this tragedy, and thus a rain comes. However, the rain is soft, with the cool breeze of early autumn, and it cannot extinguish the overwhelming fire.

Jiang Xiu's face was covered with blood. She was as embarrassed as a beggar, kneeling on the ground begging for who could save her mother. Even though she knew that the woman was covered in blood and carrying countless sins, she still wanted to see her again. She threw herself into her arms like she was a child in the fragrance of sunny flowers, heard her gentle voice, and saw her doting smile.

Since she met Lan Jinxi again, Jiang Xiu has always felt that she is very different from her mother in her memory. But now, no matter how old she was, Lan Jinxi's love for her has never faded in half, but she has just changed her way.

In the eyes of others, Lan Jinxi is naturally extremely guilty. She conducted human experiments, killed her mentor, and harmed countless innocent people... These people can naturally curse, sneer, scold her for dying, die clean, or still feel that it is not satisfying enough. She should dig out her ashes and whip them again, but Jiang Xiu cannot hate her, and is not even qualified to hate her.

Lan Jinxi was once young and innocent, full of energy. She was a stunning person in the years and a stunning dream. However, she fell in love with someone who was not worthy of her love and suffered a lot of harm. She tried her best to save her own child, but in the end, she could not save her daughter.

So she went completely crazy.

Now it is hard to say whether it was Jiang Jue who forced Lan Jinxi to a desperate situation step by step, or that Lan Jinxi had crazy genes in her bones.

In the final analysis, it was Jiang Xiu's fault.

It was her fault.

Jiang Xiu murmured: "If it weren't for me...If it weren't for me, many things that happened next would change, it was me..."

Joshua's voice trembled a little undetectable: "Jiang Xiu, your mother lets you survive, not to blame yourself."

Jiang Xiu raised her face and looked at him: "But she never thought she was dead, and I couldn't live with peace of mind!"

Joshua was silent for a while before saying, "How do you know she hadn't thought about it?"

"What she thought about was just a lot of things that had already developed to an extreme. What people could choose was just a bad result and a worse result."

Joshua reached out to wipe the tears from Jiang Xiu's eyes and said, "Jiang Xiu, stop crying, let others see it, what should I do?"

He hugged Jiang Xiu in his arms and murmured: "If others see you crying for her, your future situation will be even more difficult, so don't cry for her in the future."

But Jiang Xiu's crying became louder and louder, and finally she cried like a child who had lost her beloved toy. She leaned on Joshua's shoulder and cried hoarsely: "But she is my mother... she is my mother... She is my mother... She is dead, why can't I cry?!"

Joshua didn't answer, he just patted Jiang Xiu's back and said softly: "Fu Chenhan is still waiting for you, go find him."

Jiang Xiu grabbed his hand: "Where are you...where are you?"

Joshua smiled, "Me? You don't have to worry about me."

He kissed Jiang Xiu's eyebrows lightly, his fingers trembled against her eyebrows and whispered: "Dear, I will always be guarding you."

"No matter what happens, don't be afraid."

"From the first sight I saw, my destiny was entangled with you. I am your knife, you are my destiny..." He gasped and said, "Dear, I love you."

Jiang Xiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Joshua had already pinched the back of her neck, and Jiang Xiu's eyes instantly turned dark.

Her words were stuck in her throat and never said anything again.

——You are already free.

Don’t guard me anymore, you should have your own future.

But he couldn't hear it.

...

With a "bang", the cup was smashed to the ground and broken into a pile.

He touched his nose in vain and said to the others in the room: "You go in first."

The others had already wanted to leave and couldn't wait to run away immediately.

He said in vain: "Master, why are you angry? It's so bad to scare the young lady."

Fu Chen said with a cold face: "Who gave you the courage to take me away?!"

Pingwu said: "Isn't that the young lady's order?"

Fu Chen stared at him coldly: "Are you hers or mine?"

It was just plain saying: "I am yours, but don't you listen to the young lady?"

Fu Chenhan: "..."

He turned his eyes to Jiang Xiu on the hospital bed. Jiang Xiu's face was very pale, looking light, as if the wind would disappear when it blew. He held Jiang Xiu's hand and asked Pingbai: "Why haven't you woke up yet?"

"The doctor said it was too wasteful and he might have to sleep for a while."
