Chapter 222: Birth and Death
“You could say that we are familiar. I should be calling her Sister.” When Jun Shiyan mentioned that person, his voice contained a joyful smile. “She’s my neighbor.”
Initially, Ling Sheng had been the one to brief Jun Shiyan on Ella. However, what she knew was limited to embellished reports and her personal Wikipedia page.
Jun Shiyan knew something no one else knew. Upon seeing the young lady pestering him excitedly, he smiled and said, “You don’t know her. Why do you want to know so much about her?”
Ling Sheng thought for a while. “I don’t know. I just feel a sense of kinship. It’s an indescribable feeling. I think she’s definitely a good person. Besides, I’m about to become her ambassador!”
“When she arrives, I’ll inform you immediately and arrange for you to meet her.” Jun Shiyan smiled lovingly.
“It’s a deal. Don’t lie to me.” Ling Sheng looked up at him and curled her pinky seriously. “Pinky swear.”
“Pinky swear.” Jun Shiyan hooked his finger around hers.
“By the way, Third Master, she said that the brand was created to commemorate the early death of her daughter. Do you know about her daughter?” Ling Sheng asked carefully, knowing that this might be a taboo topic.
She comforted herself internally by thinking that she had to prepare for the worst. Since she would be working with her in the future, it would be best to ask around and not offend her when they met.
“That child!” Jun Shiyan thought for a while, but there was nothing he could not tell her.
That little angel had come to this world and brought it happiness. She had stayed in this world for a short while before flying to heaven.
During summer vacation when he was seven years old, a pretty woman had moved into the manor next door. She was very kind, humorous, and chatty. She was also very lively and active. She could not stay idle even though she would be having a baby.
The two manors were next to each other, and he would visit her frequently. From the first time he had heard the baby’s heartbeat to the first time the baby had moved, he had always been there.
At the time, he had been jealous and had complained every time the baby had moved vigorously, making it seem as though it was happily practicing Ta Chi when he was around. She had jokingly forbidden him to call her sister and forced him to call her auntie, saying that she wanted the baby to be his wife.
The baby had liked listening to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Whenever it heard the piano version, the lyrical version, or the humming version, it would dance excitedly in its mother’s womb every time.
The sister had decided immediately that the baby’s nickname would be Little Star, after Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
Before his sister had given birth, his mother had brought him back to China. When he had returned, he had only seen her depressed and skinny figure.
She had cried and apologized to him for the fact that the baby was no longer around.
This was the first time Ling Sheng had seen him so sad. Her eyes seemed to be misty as she held his hand in discomfort. “It’s alright. That angel went to the most beautiful place. She’ll definitely be very happy and blessed. She can feel your love for her.”
“Yes.” Jun Shiyan’s voice was hoarse. “Actually, I didn’t want to believe it at the time. She was very lively and she had danced in her mother’s stomach every day. How could such a lively baby die at birth?”
Later, they had all accepted the truth. Thankfully, the sister had gotten over the pain of losing her baby and become a shining superstar.
If the little angel was in the sky, she would definitely see him.
She had told him that she wanted to use the name of the angel to create an independent brand. The money she earned would be used to help more angels in the world.
