With the door to Bryan's room unlocked, I pushed it open and saw Bryan lying on a little bed.He was sleeping soundly under a small blue quilt.I didn't trust Oogway. Walking over, I touched Bryan's forehead, put my fingers under his nostrils, and felt if there was any breath.After confirming that Bryan was still alive and that his temperature was normal, I was finally at ease in my heart.I left Bryan's room. After closing the door, I asked the maid, "What's your name?"Hearing my question, the maid seemed to be flattered and said with a smile, "Madam, my name is Emily Welch.""Oh, okay, Emily." I sized her up and down and asked, "How old are you?"She looked young.Emily immediately replied, "I'm 20 years this year.""20 years old? You are so young? Aren't you in college?" I was a little surprised.Hearing this, Emily was a little embarrassed, "Yes, my family is poor. And my parents bore a lot of children. I have two younger brothers. So, instead of going to college, I came out to

Putting the tableware for Bryan next to me, Emily stood aside.I patted the seat next to me and said, "Come on, Bryan, sit here.""Okay." Nodding his head, he obediently came over.After he sat down, I put some food in his bowl. At his age, he knew how to eat by himself.Back in Town, Kelvin taught Bryan that no talking over meal since his childhood. So most of the time over meal, he didn't speak much.It was also because Bryan didn't say anything that the atmosphere over the entire meal was exceptionally oppressive.Neither Oogway nor I said a word. And Bryan focused on his meal.For a moment, it was surprisingly quiet in the large house.Only the sounds of chopsticks knocking against the cutlery rang out at times.After half an hour, I finished my meal.Seeing that there were only a few dishes left in Bryan's bowl, I asked him, "Do you want extra?""Yes! I want to eat that!"Bryan pointed to the green broccoli.As I was about to pick up the cutlery and put broccoli in Bryan's bowl,

Bryan's small bedroom looked exactly like a toy house.Oogway bought him another big racing track on which he could play toy racing.Each time, he would put a few cars there and start a competition.The three of us had fun together for hours.At 10 p.m., Bryan refused to go to bed. In the end, per my repeated persuasion, he fell asleep after hearing seven stories from me.As soon as Bryan fell asleep, I walked out of the room. Before I could go downstairs, I heard Emily's voice.I stood quietly at the corner of the stairs.There was only a little lamp in the living room.The light was dim.With Oogway sitting on a single person sofa in the living room, Emily stood on the side and talked about her affairs non stop.Women all got sinking feelings. Standing there, I suddenly realized that the relationship between Oogway and Emily suddenly changed. But what was the reason for this change?I didn't know.If it got down to the fact that Emily's past had aroused Oogway's interest, I surely

In the next few days, Marie and I officially began to discuss setting up a studio.And we would start with creating a logo for our studio.In terms of the studio's logo, both Marie and I had the same idea. We made a pattern of a butterfly and worked out several designs.We quickly finalized a plan.Marie then told me she got an office with cheap rent. After going there to have a check, she found it suitable and agreed to rent it.After she showed me where the office was, I was stunned.It turned out that the office Marie had found was actually the one that Dave had once given to me.Seeing this, I subconsciously refused, "We can't set up our studio here.""Why?" Marie was a little surprised, asking, "Come in first. Do you know how convenient the conditions here are? There is good public transport. And the layout is suitable. Most importantly, the rent here is very cheap!""Then do you know why its rent is so cheap? And who rented it out to you?"As far as I knew, the owner of this hou

I was in Oogway's arms for a while before raising my head and saying, "I'm going to wake Bryan up.""You don't have to do that." Oogway grabbed me, "Leave Bryan to the maids. We will only be there for a few hours. And we will come back at noon."I turned my head and glanced at Emily.At this time, hearing Oogway's words, she, who had a fake smile on her face, said with great enthusiasm, "Master, Madam, rest assured that you can leave Young Master to me. Having been taking care of my younger brother since my childhood, I surely won't let him encounter any accidents.""Alright."Oogway answered.He seemed to be very at ease with her.I hesitated for a moment. Knowing that Oogway indeed didn't intend to take Bryan with us, I could only say, "Okay."However, Emily made me pretty ill at ease.After telling Bryan that Oogway and I had to go out for a few hours, I went downstairs and found Janice and Lacy in the kitchen.I said to them, "Oogway and I have to go out this morning and we will o

The fact that Oogway officially announced the relationship between him and me on such an important day left me no room to go back on my words.Because now everyone knew it.After the press conference was over, both Annabel and Joshua came over and greeted me respectfully, "Mrs. Mitaka."I felt depressed in my heart. But I couldn't say anything.Walking to me after finishing everything at the press conference, Oogway seemed to sense that I was somewhat unhappy. So he raised his hand and patted me on the shoulder, asking, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy? Don't you like the surprise I prepared for you?""No, I'm very happy." I chuckled.Oogway looked at me with a gentle look in his eyes. Staring at me, he curled up the corner of his mouth slightly, reaching out, and held my hand. Pressing his thin lips against my ear, he said, "I know. You are looking forward to the day when everyone in the world knows that you are Mrs. Mitaka. But I know that you are expecting another man surnamed Mita

Hearing Oogway's words, Bryan blinked his eyes and asked on the side, "What is a one night stand?"Thinking that one night stand was a word with multiple meanings, I knew that we couldn't enlighten Bryan about it with a few sentences within a short period."Okay." I agreed and looked at the things inside the bag, only to see two sets of suits for Bryan.I took the clothes out and said to Bryan, "Bryan, today, Mom and Mr. Mitaka will take you to see a lot of people. Well, speaking of these people, they may say some strange words. It doesn't matter if you don't like them. We only have to see them today. After today, we may never see them again."I knew that I shouldn't have said so to Bryan, a four and a half year old child. But I was going to take him with me to the Mitaka family house tonight. And this made me uneasy.Hearing that I said so to Bryan, Oogway squatted down, pulled Bryan's hand, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't be afraid. If there is anything, you can turn to me for hel

The engagement banquet was held in one of the hotels of the Mitaka Family.After we arrived, I saw a lot of luxury cars parked at the entrance.Oogway was an unexpected rising force to the people in the Mitaka Family and the City. Moreover, the pharmaceutical industry was an indispensable industry. As human beings' life span was getting longer and longer, naturally, we relied more and more on medicine.Admittedly, the ones mastering high end pharmaceutical technology had mastered the way to make money.From a long term perspective, the pharmaceutical industry surely wouldn't be less promising than the industries like the smartphone industry.Nobody was stupid. So a lot of people attended Oogway's engagement party for the links and building of mutual grounds.As we walked inside, every guest said in our ears, "Congratulations! Congratulations!"But I could notice that almost everyone stared at Bryan without exception.Even though we walked past them, they kept looking in Bryan's direct

Kelvin spoke loudly over the phone.Moreover, it was pretty quiet inside the car. Oogway seemed to hear his words and glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes, "Is Mr. Kelvin coming over?"I nodded.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll arrange a room for him on the top floor of the rehabilitation center.""Well, sorry to trouble you."I was grateful for Oogway's attentiveness.As we were about to arrive home. I suddenly remembered something and said to Oogway, "Can you take me somewhere?""Yes, I can." Oogway nodded.I got an address online and sent it to him.Oogway immediately turned the car around and drove there with me.As he turned the car around, he raised his hand and looked at me with some displeasure, saying, "In the future, wherever you want to go, just tell me directly. You don't have to ask my opinion first. I will always be available for you."I nodded. Only after that did I tell him where I was going.It was a light and textile market selling cloth and hand made craf

I went up and supported Jessica readily. Fearing that she wouldn't accept it, I said, "Aunt, can I bathe you? By the way... I can bathe your baby too.""It sounds good!" Jessica accepted it happily.All the nurses looked at me with strange looks.Ignoring the looks, I stepped forward and helped Jessica take a bath.The rehabilitation center of the Way Hospital was in a good condition. There was a Jacuzzi. After I finished pouring the water into the bath, I let Jessica sit inside.I cleaned up the doll first. Seeing that, Jessica became quite obedient.I bathed her with scented soap first and then rubbed her with a bath towel little by little.It had been a long time since Jessica took a bath, making her body covered with a layer of shell like and hard skin. Seeing so, I asked Oogway to fetch me some white vinegar. After that, I bathed her bits by bits.Sensing that the water turned cold, I scooped the cold water out with a basin and added hot water in.Because it had been years sinc

I stood still and said to her, "We won't do that. We... we'll transfer you and your child to a better place. She... She..." I hesitated for a moment and said, "She is all grown up. And she will have to go to school soon. It's not good for her to be here. She has to go to a better place where there are teachers to impart her knowledge, which is good for her."Upon hearing this, Jessica stared at me with her pair of clear and bright eyes as if she had understood my words and suddenly became as obedient as a child, saying, "Really? Is it true that someone will teach her?""Yes, it is true. The teacher is great and experienced. Any child who follows him can learn a lot and become smart." I tried to persuade her.Jessica nodded desperately, "Okay, okay. That will be so great." She looked at the doll in her arm, "Reed, did you hear that? You can learn soon.""Yes, yes." I echoed. And my tears kept falling.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go transfer her to another

The nurse took us inside and said, "To be honest, before you, nobody visited the patients here. Generally speaking, the reason why people send patients here is that they have a guilty conscience. They are too embarrassed to kill them and yet find them a burden. So they send them here and pay for their stay here to keep their conscience at bay."The more the nurse said, the more upset I felt.It was quiet on the fifth floor as well.I saw that there was a small window on the door of each ward. With the window high up on the door, someone my height couldn't see what was inside.However, Oogway was taller. He looked around with a frown and a dignified look on his face.Seeing him look like this, I was worried."Bang!" When we were going, a sound rang all of a sudden.I was so frightened that I shrank backward and looked at the door where the noise came from, only to find a face attached tightly to the window on the door.The face was black, dirty, and skinny.The pair of eyes above were

Oogway and I arrived at the gate together.As expected, there was a security guard at the gate . We went over and saw the old security guard laying there in a thick military green overcoat, listening to music.The sound of the music was quite loud.It wasn't until we called him for a long while that he heard us.Looking at us in discontent, the old guard got up and opened the window of the gatehouse, leaving it ajar."Hello, we want to...""No visit is allowed during the New Year."As soon as I opened my mouth, the guard snapped. After that, he closed the window.He was afraid that we would harass him. Then he locked the window from inside.I became anxious all of a sudden.Oogway beside me wasn't in a hurry at all.He reached out, took out his wallet from his pocket, and took out a stack of pink banknotes before putting them in front of the window.The security guard's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the money. Instead of opening the window, he came out directly from the gatehouse, o

I glanced at it and found that there seemed to be an inkstone in the first box.But what was different was that the inkstone wasn't black but red.I was confused. However, as soon as the Master of the Newman Family saw this, his hands began to tremble. Placing his hand a few meters away from the inkstone, he seemed to intend to touch it but dared not do so.After a long while, he asked, "Is this for me?""Of course, it is a red silk inkstone I got by chance. I don't know about this kind of inkstones. It will be a waste if I keep it by my side."Oogway said casually.Although he spoke lightly, I could tell that this inkstone should be quite rare."Thank you, Mr. Oogway." When the Master spoke, he had been staring at the inkstone. It wasn't until a long time later that he gently caressed it with his hands.His expression showed that he loved it so much that he couldn't bear to let it go.After that, Oogway said to the maid, "Open this too."Hearing his words, the maid opened the secon

There was a cold and determined look in his eyes. Confirming that he wouldn't say it, I wouldn't force him further.Moreover, I knew well that I couldn't control what they were going to do.What I could do was to protect Bryan well in case he would get hurt.I nodded lightly, "Okay. Then I'll go and accompany Bryan."As soon as I intended to open the door, Dave directly pulled me from behind with force. I was caught off guard and fell backward.The next second, I directly sat in Dave's arms.My face turned red. And I said, "No." I struggled to get up. However, Dave restrained me firmly in his arms and placed his other hand on my waist. Holding my waist with both hands, he said to me, "Turn around.""No. I'm leaving.""You can't." Dave refused.I closed my eyes, thinking about Oogway's words and my own identity.Although I wanted to be closer to Dave, I couldn't do it with my identity.I was Oogway's fiancee. Regardless of the excuse, the identity, or the reason. I made up my mind,

It was night. Even so, I could clearly feel Oogway kept staring at me closely with his pair of profound eyes.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and left.After he left, Bryan, who had been following Dave, suddenly ran over, "Mom, let's set off fireworks together!""Ah... Okay." I nodded.At this moment, Jamin, who had been standing outside all this while, turned around and entered the room.In the blink of an eye, only the three of us were outside the house.We set off most of the fireworks. By the time it was 1 a.m., Bryan was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Thus, we stopped setting off the fireworks.The maid took the fireworks into the room.Holding Bryan in my arms, I said to Dave, "Then we will go back."After that, I turned around, intending to ask the driver to drive us back, only to be suddenly pulled by Dave. Then, I heard his magnetic voice, "Stay here tonight."My heart thumped."Being here without Oogway.. Won't that mean..."In fact, I didn't want to leave a

I leaned on Oogway and played with my cell phone for a while before falling asleep.Located in the city center, Jamin's house was surrounded by residential communities. As soon as it was midnight, the sounds of firecrackers rang from all directions!I opened my eyes. Beside me, Oogway sat there with the same posture as he had before I went to bed.He looked at me. "You up?""Yes." I nodded and glanced at the watch on my cell phone, only to find that it had been midnight.Glamourous fireworks was on outside the window.Looking at Bryan sleeping soundly, I somewhat couldn't bear to wake him up.Oogway seemed to sense my hesitation and said with a smile, "Wake him up. It happens once a year. Otherwise, he will blame you."I nodded and patted Bryan's shoulder lightly. Putting my face close to his ear, I whispered, "Baby, get up, they've started setting off the firecrackers."Hearing my words, Bryan seemed to have been awakened by an alarm.He immediately opened his eyes and sat up from t
