What should I do if I pledge my life to save a fox?

Not long after Yu Muhuai left, Yu Yancheng came back.

"Huai Bao is out?" Yu Yancheng asked.

"Well, I said I and Kui Shan went to find General Xiao's children." Although Lian Zhimu couldn't go out, Yu Muhuai would come back and chatter to her for a long time every day about what he did when he went out and who he met.

In this way, even Zhimu is not out of touch with the outside world.

"That child, I've seen him, he's a very gentle child." Yu Yancheng met Xiao Youqing at the banquet.

"Is it alpha?" Lian Zhimu asked.

"Yeah." Yu Yancheng nodded.

"Then we can have a baby kiss with Huai Bao?" Lian Zhimu asked.

She didn't know how long she could hold on, thinking about finding a reliable home for Yu Muhuai.

"Don't worry, Huai Bao is only three years old." Yu Yancheng knew what Lian Zhimu was thinking.

"You can definitely watch Huai Bao grow up, watch him get married, and personally choose an alpha for him who is worthy of his trust." Yu Yancheng said.

Lian Zhimu smiled bitterly, it was impossible, she knew it, but she still raised her lips and looked at Yu Yancheng: "Okay, I'm not in a hurry."

"By the way, this." Lian Zhimu took out a bracelet and handed it to Yu Yancheng.

Yu Yancheng took it and opened the shell on it. Inside was a photo of Lian Zhimu.

"This is..." Yu Yancheng's hand holding the bracelet was trembling.

"If I can't see it anymore, just give this bracelet to Huai Bao after he gets married." Lian Zhimu said, "Maybe by then, his impression of me will be blurred."

"By borrowing the bracelet, consider it my blessing to them." Lian Zhimu's voice was choked with sobs.

"The photos inside...are from my past. Huai Bao just needs to remember the beautiful me back then. I'm so embarrassed now..." Lian Zhimu knew how ugly he looked now.

His increasingly thin cheeks were sunken, his skin was frighteningly white, his tail had lost its luster, and his pheromones did not smell good due to the effects of drugs.

She wanted Yu Muhuai and Yu Yancheng to only remember her most beautiful appearance.

"Don't say that. You can definitely watch Huai Bao get married. You can watch it with your own eyes and dress up beautifully!" Yu Yancheng stuffed the bracelet back to Lian Zhimu.

"Yan Cheng..."

"Stop talking." Yu Yancheng didn't want to face it.

Lian Zhimu sighed: "Okay, I won't say anything anymore."

In the evening, when Yu Muhuai came back, Lian Zhimu was already asleep.

Yu Muhuai remembered that his father had said that his mother was a light sleeper and if he saw his mother sleeping, he should not disturb her.

Yu Muhuai left Lian Zhimu's dormitory quietly. When passing by the study, he heard the conversation between Yu Yancheng and the witch doctor.

"How much longer?" Yu Yancheng's voice was very tired.

Yu Muhuai couldn't help but hide at the door and listen.

The witch doctor sighed: "King, my subordinates have really tried their best. The queen still has one year at most."

"Only one year!?" Yu Yancheng slapped the table.

Yu Muhuai who was outside the door was startled, stumbled and fell into the door.

When Yu Yancheng saw Yu Muhuai, he quickly went over and picked him up: "Huai Bao is back? Did you have fun today?"

Yu Yancheng pretended to be calm, pretending that Yu Muhuai didn't hear, and talked to Yu Muhuai normally.

"Hmm..." Yu Muhuai nodded, and then asked doubtfully, "Father, what do you mean mom only has one year left?"

"No... nothing..." Yu Yancheng didn't know how to explain.

"I know!" Yu Muhuai suddenly figured it out.

Yu Yancheng's heart tightened: "What does Huai Bao know?"

"Mom said today that she is going to a place very far away, and it is not convenient to take Huai Bao with her." Yu Muhuai thought of Lian Zhimu's words, "Mom, are you going to travel far away in one year?"

"...Yeah." Yu Yancheng tilted his head and nodded.

Yu Muhuai was puzzled: "Mom won't go away for a year until she leaves. Why is your father so angry? Is it because mom won't take you with her either?"

Yu Yancheng said in a hoarse voice: "Well... mother wants to leave by herself without father, so father is angry."

Yu Muhuai sat on Yu Yancheng's lap, wagging his tail: "Father, you can't be too clingy to your mother. The book Baby Kui read to me today said that no matter how good the relationship is, two people should give each other enough space."

Yu Yancheng looked down at Yu Muhuai: "What book did Xiaokui read to you?"

"I don't know, he just shared this sentence with me. I didn't see the book cover." Yu Muhuai said, "But I think it makes sense. You are more clingy to my mother than me."

Yu Yancheng was ashamed. Was he being "educated" by his son?

"Okay, then father is not angry anymore." Yu Yancheng winked at the witch doctor and asked him to leave.

The witch doctor left silently, but Yu Muhuai still noticed when he opened and closed the door.

"My mother is going on a long journey, why does my father ask the witch doctor? Does he want the witch doctor to follow him?" Yu Muhuai asked.

"Well, because my mother is not in good health..." Yu Yancheng tried his best to hide the sadness in his eyes.

"Huai Bao came back, have you visited your mother?"

Yu Muhuai nodded: "Mom is asleep, Huai Bao didn't disturb her!"

Yu Yancheng touched his head: "Huai Bao is so good!"

Yu Muhuai chuckled.

"Okay, it's getting late. Huai Bao should go back and rest." Yu Yancheng let go of Yu Muhuai.

Yu Muhuai kissed Yu Yancheng on the face: "Good night, father, don't be angry. Mom also said she won't take me with her. We will wait for her to come back together."

"Okay." Yu Yancheng nodded.

Yu Muhuai waved his tail and left.

The one year the witch doctor said was just an estimate. Lian Zhimu's body did not last until one year...

Lian Zhimu had been struggling with the disease for so many years, but he was not in pain before he died. He even got up and cooked a meal for Yu Yancheng and Yu Muhuai.

"I haven't cooked for a long time, and my skills are rusty." Lian Zhimu looked at the food on the table and shook his head to himself.

It's still early, it's still dark.

Lian Zhimu looked at Yu Yancheng's sleeping face and stretched out his hand to trace the outline of his face...

At the break of dawn, Lian Zhimu woke up Yu Yancheng softly: "Yan Cheng, get up and have breakfast."

Yu Yancheng opened his eyes and saw his lover sitting beside the bed, waking him up, which was a bit unreal.

"Why are you up so early?" Yu Yancheng couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw that Lian Zhimu's face seemed to be okay.

"I feel pretty good today. I made breakfast for you and Huai Bao. Get up and eat it." Lian Zhimu reached out to pull him.

Yu Yancheng felt scared, he seemed to sense something...

"Hurry up, I'll wake Huai Bao up." Lian Zhimu rubbed Yu Yancheng's cheek.

A few minutes later, Yu Muhuai appeared in the restaurant. When he saw the sumptuous breakfast, his eyes lit up: "Mom is great! So many delicious foods!"

Lian Zhimu rubbed his head: "As long as Huai Bao likes it."

"Yeah! I like it!" Yu Muhuai nodded while eating.

Yu Yancheng sat opposite Yu Muhuai, worried.

Lian Zhimu smiled at him...

After breakfast, Yu Muhuai went to play with Kui Shan as usual. Lian Zhimu sent him to the front of the palace and watched him leave.

When Yu Muhuai's figure could no longer be seen, Lian Zhimu's body fell uncontrollably...

Yu Yancheng rushed over and hugged her: "Mumu!"

"I... hold on... can't hold it anymore... I'm sorry..." Lian Zhimu reached out to reach Yu Yancheng's face, but couldn't reach it...
