Shanghai's top luxury ward.
Xie Chen lay on the hospital bed with his hands crossed in front of his chest and his eyes closed.
His heart beat in a straight line.
The doctor pronounced him dead.
"The deceased Xie Chen, 88 years old, born in…"
Xie Chen floated in the air and watched everything quietly.
In this life, he had started from scratch and stirred up the world. He had been ranked first in the forbes rankings until now and had been able to do whatever he wanted in the business world.
He had always thought that he was happy.
However, it was only when he closed his eyes and his body cooled down that he realized that he was the only one left in the ward after he had completed the authentication of the inheritance yesterday.
How ironic.
Was money and power really that important?
"Knock, knock…"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The doctor stopped praying and walked over to open the door.
The figure outside the door stunned him.
"Madam, you are…?"
The doctor looked at the woman in the wedding dress in confusion.
An unfamiliar voice came from outside the door. The extremely faint voice suppressed the huge waves.
"His wife."
Wife?
Xie Chen was a little puzzled.
He had indeed gotten married for his career, but his wife had separated from him in the second year of their marriage and died ten years ago. Where did his wife come from?
The doctor did not suspect anything. He bowed slightly and whispered,"My condolences."
Xie Chen floated towards the door in confusion.
He was stunned.
She was very beautiful.
She was wearing a white wedding dress with a veil that dragged on the floor.
Her skin was not as dry as other old women. Instead, it was still fair and delicate.
Although her facial features had aged, her temperament was elegant and moving. One could still tell that this was once a peerless face.
Xie Chen only felt that this woman looked familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen her before.
The woman trembled as she walked towards Xie Chen's body. Large drops of tears fell from her eyes and splashed on the ground.
"Xie Chen, I can finally stay by your side in this life…"
She reached out and caressed Xie Chen's face over and over again. She buried her body in Xie Chen's chest and cried bitterly.
"Ma 'am, please feel sorry for your loss. The deceased has passed away. You should take care of your health!”
the doctor consoled.
Xie Chen felt as if an atomic bomb had been thrown into his mind.
The explosion engulfed his entire body in an instant!
He remembered who this woman was!
Xia Qingxiao!
The school belle of No.1 Middle School back then!
His own deskmate!
Didn't she study abroad?!
How many years had it been since they last contacted each other?
Why was she here?
She even claimed to be his wife?
Xie Chen's mind was still filled with questions. The next moment, Xia Qingxiao's words completely made Xie Chen's mind go blank.
"Please bury my ashes with him after I die.”
As Xia Qingxiao spoke, she raised her head and smiled at the doctor with red eyes.
She had waited for 69 years.
Finally, it was time.
"Xie Chen."
Xia Qingxiao suddenly called out softly.
Xie Chen, who was floating in the air, felt a surge of heat surging and roaring in his chest.
"I'm here, here!"
He roared silently.
The next moment, Xia Qingxiao gently leaned her head against his chest where his heart was.
The warm and firm voice seemed to have shaken his heart.
"I love you."
Seeing her tears rolling down her chest, Xie Chen's soul felt warm at this moment. Before he could say anything, he was suddenly sucked into nothingness by a force.
………………
"Love didn't abandon me. Your love made me drunk. I don't care…"
Xie Chen was woken up by a familiar ringtone.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a cloud of smoke.
The sound of a mouse clicking furiously rang in his ears, and the computer screen in front of him was still playing the scene of the chicken dinner.
PlayerUnknown's Battleground?
These four words appeared in Xie Chen's mind.
His eyes wandered as he subconsciously glanced at the time display at the bottom right corner.
October 8th, 2020.
Xie Chen quivered, and the rationality in his mind instantly returned to normal!
Wasn't this when he was 17 years old?
The phone was still ringing. Xie Chen stretched out his slender fingers with trembling hands and pressed the answer button.
On the other end of the phone, his mother, Xie Lan, sounded a little tired.
"Son, the form teacher called to rush you. The morning self-study session in First Middle School has already ended. It's a big break now. If you don't go now, you'll be late…"
Classes?
No.1 Middle School?
Xie Chen's still somewhat muddled rationality finally returned to normal.
He was…reborn!
In 2020, he was only 17 years old. The second year after his mother remarried, he moved to another city with his mother and transferred to No.1 Middle School.
At that time, he was still young and rebellious. He hated his remarried mother.
He wished that he could go against her in everything!
In his memory, on the day he transferred schools, not only did he not go to school on time, but he also slept in the internet cafe for the whole day. He only went to the classroom in his slippers when he had self-study in the evening.
Therefore, on the first day of school, he was notified by the whole school.
At that time, he did not know Xia Qingxiao, nor did he know that the little deskmate who sat beside him back then had actually transformed from a delicate little girl into a cold and top-notch school belle in three years of high school.
Xie Chen's heart seemed to still echo with the words 'I love you'.
At this moment, his mother, who had been diagnosed with cancer and left him, was still talking about something.
This familiar voice made Xie Chen's tears fall.
That was great.
His mother, Xie Lan, was still alive. He had not done all the stupid things he had done before.
That was great!
Xie Chen took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said with a trembling voice,"Okay, Mom, I'll go now.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
On the other end, Xie Lan was stunned and did not react in time.
His son was…
Had she changed?
