Xie Tiesheng was always feeling like he was forgetting something, even when he saw his spouse sleeping peacefully, he couldn't feel at ease—instead, it made him even more restless and unable to sleep.
"Xiaoqi, go and call your fifth brother over," Xie Tiesheng said softly as he straightened his old partner's hair which was starting to turn yellowish-white.
"Okay." Xie Jingzi also felt that something was off. Her mother looked very peaceful in her sleep and seemed very calm, but when she woke up, she did nothing but cry and hardly spoke a word!
...Words?
Hearing Xie Tiesheng suddenly say this, Xie Jingzi abruptly lifted her head, her eyes reddening! She got up in a panic and rushed out feeling extremely anxious.
Upon reaching the next room, Xie Jingzi saw her fifth brother comforting Xiaoqi; Xiao Si was being well-behaved, sitting on the wooden bed, his small tiger eyes, a trait specific to the Xie Family, quietly following his father and sister around.
