The boy was scared and cried even harder. His nanny suggested, “Master, leave him to me. You should take a shower and get some rest.”
Huo Yunshen never got any sleep these days. His eyes were blood red and he seemed like he was just coming out of hell.
The nanny was right. Huo Yunshen gave the boy to her, left the presidential palace and headed back to Yunjing Villa.
When he returned home and saw the familiar surroundings, he could almost hear their laughter from a few days ago. However, his family was falling apart now.
Huo Yunshen stepped into the house without reacting to anyone’s greeting. It seemed he could no longer hear nor see, or even speak.
Entering their bedroom, he felt even more heartbroken.
He was exhausted. Lying on the huge bed he could not help shedding tears silently.
Jing Xi, how I miss you…
Jing Xi, you promised to grow old with me. How could you leave me alone now?
Jing Xi, come back, please… Come back, my love…
…
They could not hide it from the children forever.
Ying Bao overheard their talking and could not believe that her mother was dead. She came to her daddy for an answer.
“Daddy, where is my mommy? Why is she still not back?”
Ying Bao pulled her father’s arm as she asked him.
Huo Yunshen tried to make an excuse again. “Mommy is away for filming. She won’t be back that soon.”
Hearing him saying so, Ying Bao seemed irritated. She threw away her father’s hand and cried, “Daddy, you are lying! They say mommy is dead! My mommy is dead! She’s not coming back!”
“Cherry…”
Huo Yunshen felt sharp pains in his heart and tried to cuddled his daughter. But the sensitive girl stepped back from him.
She kept wiping her tears but could not stop crying. “Daddy! How could mommy be dead? I don’t want mommy to be dead! I want my mommy back! I want my mommy…”
But where could Huo Yunshen find her mother again?
The girl cried, and so did he.
From then on,Ying Bao became very sensitive. She felt like she was being abandoned by her own mother.
She was a lonely child now.
She had lost her mother!
Even Tang Feimo could not console her.
She missed her mother so much and wished she could come back alive.
Mommy, where are you…
…
Two years later.
The new Dragon Kingdom was recognized by the United Nations and reclaimed its position in the world arena.
It resumed the hereditary monarchy and Huo Yunshen became the first king of the modern Dragon Kingdom, taking on the responsibility of leading his country to prosperity.
The capital remained in Mo City and the royal palace continued to use the same name–the Triumph Palace.
Huo Yunshen had moved into the Triumph Palace with his family a year earlier and formed his government in Mo City.
Estan was another place of sorrow for him now. There were too many heartbreaking memories.
Throughout the first year after Jing Xi disappeared, he never had any sound sleep. He suffered from manic depression and had to rely on medication.
When the Dragon Kingdom was restored he moved into the Triumph Palace with their children.
But he did not sell the Yunjing Villa when they left Estan.
Although he would never go back, he wanted no one else to step into it either. It was like an irreparable wound and he had to seal it forever.
The second year after Jing Xi was gone, he engaged himself intensively in governing affairs and never took any breaks, because whenever he stopped he would be overwhelmed and tortured by loneliness and yearning.
