Chapter 887 Are They Alive or Dead Now
His grades aren’t very good right now, oh, but he’s in Class Four.
“As long as he knows to work hard on his studies, that’s good. It’s getting late, let’s go back early and say goodbye to your classmates.”
“Goodbye, Tang Xiao, let’s chat next time, bye bye.”
“Goodbye.” Tang Xiao rarely managed to say these two words.
Watching Han Jin and his mother leave while chatting and laughing, Tang Xiao felt very sad. He also wished that his mom could pick him up from school every day, holding her hand on the way home, and occasionally acting a bit spoiled.
But, his parents had left him two years ago, and he didn’t know whether they were alive or dead.
“Young Master, let’s go back.”
“Okay.” Tang Xiao got into the car, the driver closed the door, walked around to the driver’s seat, and started the car to leave.
Tang Xiao leaned against the car door, looking out the window with a cold expression.
On the sidewalk outside, it was full of children going home from school. Every face was filled with innocent, carefree smiles, and even those who were silent had clear and pure eyes.
Among so many elementary school students, he was probably the only odd one out. He didn’t smile, disliked talking, and wasn’t interested in anything.
He felt that his world was devoid of any color and light.
His happiness and joy were taken away that night.
He would never forget the scene he saw when he was startled awake by the gunshot. His beloved mom had been shot in the chest, her body was covered in blood, the bed was soaked with blood, and even the floor was blood-stained.
It was the first time he had seen so much blood; he was terribly frightened. He was scared that Mom would die, afraid she would leave him forever.
Dad was holding onto Mom the entire time; he saw Dad crying, his body shaking violently, even Uncle was crying. At that time, he really wanted to ask, is Mom dead, why were they all crying?
But he dared not ask, fearing they would tell him that his mom was really dead.
Fortunately, Uncle William was there; he said Mom wasn’t dead yet, the bullet had narrowly missed her heart, and there was still hope.
Then Mom went into surgery, and the next day Dad took Mom along with Uncle William and Aunt Lan Keren to Country A.
Since that time, he hadn’t seen them anymore; occasionally, he would hear news brought back by Uncle.
But all the news were good news.
Thinking about it now, Mom getting shot wasn’t necessarily a bad thing; at least she found fortune in misfortune. Because she’d lost a lot of blood, the drugs in her system also decreased significantly. Uncle William thought of blood transfusion, which might completely cure them.
Uncle said that Uncle William found out that blood transfusion couldn’t cure the root cause, but it could extend their lives. Ultimately, they had to develop an antidote to completely eliminate the toxins in their bodies.
Time flew by, and two years passed, and apart from the initial bits of information received, even Uncle couldn’t get news about them anymore.
In the end, they completely severed contact, so whether his parents were alive or dead, he didn’t know. But he thought, no news was good news, at least it proved they were still alive.
But, Mom and Dad, when will you come back?
I really, really miss you.
“Young Master, we’re home.” The driver’s voice interrupted his thoughts.
Tang Xiao pushed the car door open and got out, looking at this familiar home, but he didn’t feel like it was home at all. Besides the servants, he was the only one in the house.
