Chapter 459: Your Life Was Exchanged With His Life

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Shao Qihai had first seen the two of them, he had thought that Mu Jingzhe was dead because her mouth and face had been covered in blood, as if she had vomited blood due to serious injuries.

However, upon closer inspection, he had realized that it wasn’t Mu Jingzhe’s blood, but Ji Buwang’s.

Knowing that Mu Jingzhe’s condition was dangerous, Ji Buwang had used his blood to feed her. He had used his blood to keep her alive, allowing her to hold on until help arrived.

Shao Qihai seemed to have seen similar reports before, but those reports had been mostly related to parents and children. Ji Buwang’s actions weren’t groundbreaking, but seeing this happen first-hand still had a huge impact on him.

Ji Buwang’s wrist had been bitten badly. Upon seeing that there was blood at the corner of his mouth, one could tell that he had bitten himself.

Shao Qihai didn’t know how long Ji Buwang had held on. He had found the fan where Ji Buwang and Mu Jingzhe had been trapped, and Ji Buwang’s last words had been written on it.

Ji Buwang hadn’t known who would save them and had only asked the person who would dig them up not to let Jingzhe see the wound on his hand. He didn’t want Jingzhe to know the truth. He had asked them to clean the traces of blood in Mu Jingzhe’s mouth and destroy the wound on his wrist to make it look like his hand had been smashed by an object. He didn’t want her to know the truth for the rest of her life.

Based on the scene, Mu Jingzhe’s hand injury, and everything else, one could basically conclude what had happened.

At first, Mu Jingzhe had risked her life to save him. Later on, it was Ji Buwang who had risked his life to save her. They’d both wanted the other party to live.

And Ji Buwang’s actions were definitely something Mu Jingzhe hadn’t hoped for or wanted.

With his last words, other than asking for help, Ji Buwang had only said, ‘Grandpa, I’m sorry.’

He hadn’t left any last words for Mu Jingzhe, for he’d wanted her to give up.

Shao Qihai had been the first to see the fan. He had fulfilled Ji Buwang’s last wish. Before Mu Jingzhe had woken up, he had cleaned the blood on her face and mouth and personally injured Ji Buwang’s wound-riddled hand, creating the illusion that the injury had been caused by heavy impact.

He had followed Ji Buwang’s instructions step by step, but he hadn’t expected Mu Jingzhe to fall into a long slumber.

The fan Ji Buwang had left behind was handed over to Shao Dong by Shao Qihai. When Shao Dong brought it back, Shao Xi and the others all saw it. Even Old Master Ji and Li Zhaodi had seen it. Only Mu Jingzhe hadn’t.

She would never see it in her lifetime because Ji Buwang hadn’t wanted her to ever know the truth.

In the end, the fan was returned to Shao Qihai’s hands. Old Master Ji was too heartbroken to keep it. The kids were afraid that Mu Jingzhe would find out, so they didn’t dare keep it either.

Shao Qihai realized that Ji Buwang had been really his enemy. They had been rivals while he was still alive. Later on, Ji Buwang had even snatched Mu Jingzhe away. In the end, even now that Ji Buwang had died, he still had to clean up the mess he had left behind.

However, he had no choice but to clean it up for Ji Buwang.

He had always known about Ji Buwang’s feelings for Mu Jingzhe, but he hadn’t known that they were so deep. He should hate Ji Buwang, but in the end, he couldn’t bring himself to hate him. Instead, he only felt guilty.

Even when they had separated Ji Buwang’s hand from Mu Jingzhe’s, although he clearly hadn’t done anything wrong and had even saved them, he had felt really bad about it.

“Now that Mu Jingzhe is in this state, what should we do? You predicted everything like a god. But did you predict that Mu Jingzhe would lose her will to live because of you?”

No one answered Shao Qihai. There was only a gust of wind.

Mu Jingzhe slept for an entire day and night without waking up. Shao Dong and the others didn’t sleep or rest either. Their eyes only turned increasingly red.

Without needing the doctor to say anything, they knew that it was dangerous for her to go on like this. As they looked at Mu Jingzhe, who looked like she was about to die in her sleep, the five kids couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“Mommy, don’t go. We haven’t grown up yet. You promised to take care of us forever.”

“Jingzhe, you can’t let your old parents see you off…” Li Zhaodi was also crying, but Shao Dong didn’t stop her this time, as he wanted to cry too. It would be good if Mommy heard that and woke up.

However, Mu Jingzhe actually didn’t hear it. She was too tired. After seeing Ji Buwang’s corpse, she could no longer continue living in her dreams and believe it was a month after her wedding.

All she saw was Ji Buwang leaving after saying goodbye. She kept chasing after him, but she couldn’t catch up no matter what. Later on, Ji Buwang became a butterfly.

She became a butterfly too and kept flying with Ji Buwang. As she flew, she forgot about all her troubles. She thought that going to the ends of the earth with him was quite nice too.

However, Mu Jingzhe also realized that she wasn’t flying far. It was as if there was a thread holding her back. She looked down and realized that she really looked like a butterfly, a butterfly kite to be exact.

A familiar shout came from below. Mu Jingzhe lowered her head and saw Li Zhaodi, Shao Dong, and the others.

She took a closer look and realized that these butterfly kites were very similar to the two that Ji Buwang had made.

She remembered now. This was the kite that Ji Buwang had made previously. At the time, only hers and Ji Buwang’s kites had been butterflies, and they had flown into the sky.

She even accidentally sang ‘Two Butterflies’. However, when she listened carefully, she didn’t hear her voice. She only heard Shao Xi ask from below, “This is how Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai1 flew when they became butterflies, right?”

Shao Xi had said this before. At the time, she hadn’t taken it seriously. But now, she realized that these words had been like a prophecy.

Regardless of whether they were really a prophecy or not, Mu Jingzhe felt that it was pretty good to become a butterfly and fly, as she wouldn’t have to be separated from Ji Buwang.

Mu Jingzhe kept flying with him. She knew that these two kites would fly far away in the end. As expected, it really did happen. The kite’s line broke, and she was just about to soar into the blue sky with Ji Buwang. However, at that moment, she suddenly heard someone crying.

When she lowered her head, she saw that the five kids, who had originally been smiling happily, were all crying at that moment. Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng were also standing below and waving desperately for her to come back.

Their cries were heart-wrenching. The kids were chasing after her, but she was flying in the sky. How could they catch up?

Mu Jingzhe hesitated for a moment. She wanted to comfort Shao Xi, so she didn’t follow Ji Buwang for a second. However, when she turned around, she realized that Ji Buwang was gone. She wanted to chase after him, but she was held back by Shao Dong and the others.

Mu Jingzhe woke up amid her struggle, the exact same sound of crying she had heard in her dream ringing in her ears. Shao Dong, Xiao Wu, and Li Zhaodi, who were looking at her with red eyes, burst into tears when they saw her wake up.

“Mommy, you’re finally awake…”

Mu Jingzhe froze. Yes, she had woken up, but she had lost Ji Buwang and couldn’t catch up to him anymore.

He was face-blind and he didn’t know anyone else. How sad and lonely would he be without her company on the road to the netherworld?

Mu Jingzhe’s suppressed tears gushed out. “He will be afraid alone. I should have gone with him. Why did you wake me up…”

Li Zhaodi’s heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife, but she also heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that she was letting out these tears. She had been afraid that Mu Jingzhe would keep holding it all in.

Shao Dong could sense that Mu Jingzhe was in excruciating pain, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her wake up. He couldn’t imagine what would have happened if Mu Jingzhe had left with Ji Buwang.

Shao Dong knelt in front of the hospital bed and muttered an apology. “I’m sorry, Mommy. I’m sorry. We were too selfish. We couldn’t bear to see you leave. I’m sorry…”
