Chapter 1147: Chapter 1151: I Can Feel His Body Temperature Chapter 1147: Chapter 1151: I Can Feel His Body Temperature Xia Yangyang knew her godfather was reminiscing about her mother again.

“Godfather, don’t dwell on the past anymore. You’ve been stuck your entire life because of my mom, and that’s not what she would have wanted to see.”

Gao Huizhi, however, suddenly looked very sorrowful.

Gao Huizhi said, “Throughout my life, I’ve been fighting and killing, unattached to anything. I’m just a worthless life who, relying on nothing but solitary courage, made it to this day. But the older I get, the more things I’m afraid of. When I adopted them all those years ago, it wasn’t really for any father-son affection–I just thought about training the next generation to take care of Culture Hall. But now, each of them has become my vulnerability, one after another turning into what they are today. I’d rather it have been me who got shot and died.”

Xia Yangyang had never seen such a man, who was always as strong as steel, say words like these.

He was truly heartbroken.

Xia Yangyang said, “Godfather, no matter how sad you are, my eldest brother can’t come back to life. I think his spirit in heaven doesn’t want to see you like this either. You were the person he respected the most. If you keep indulging in sorrow, my brother would be sad to know that.”

Gao Huizhi let out a deep sigh, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Talking about it makes you sad too. Go see your third sister and have a good talk with her.”

Xia Yangyang nodded.

As Xia Yangyang walked to the door and turned around, Gao Huizhi was still practicing his calligraphy, coughing twice.

Xia Yangyang suddenly felt that her godfather seemed to have aged a lot all at once.

Far from the vigorous chieftain he used to be.

His temples were graying, and he had lost a lot of weight because of this disaster.

You could hardly see what he once looked like.

It was like needles pricking in Xia Yangyang’s heart.

Xia Yangyang went to see Phoenix again.

Phoenix was sitting on the sun terrace in her room.

Probably because they were worried she might do something drastic.

The entire villa, only her room’s terrace was made into a small sunroom.

It was already evening.

From there, you could perfectly see the distant sunset.

Gradually setting below the horizon of the sea.

The view from here was truly beautiful.

Phoenix was sitting in a wicker chair.

With a blanket draped over her legs.

Her gaze firmly fixed on the distance.

When Xia Yangyang had knocked on the door, Phoenix hadn’t heard.

Xia Yangyang went straight in.

She had walked up behind her, and Phoenix hadn’t noticed Xia Yangyang’s arrival.

She appeared completely immersed in her own world, which was heartbreaking.

Xia Yangyang walked over, crouched down, and took Phoenix’s hand.

She whispered softly, “Third sister, what are you thinking about?”

Phoenix wasn’t startled.

She just slowly brought her gaze back, then let it rest on Xia Yangyang’s face.

It seemed to take Phoenix a good while to respond, then she smiled and touched Xia Yangyang’s cheek, “Xiao Qi, you came.”

For some reason, seeing the smile on Phoenix’s face made Xia Yangyang feel very uncomfortable.

Xia Yangyang nodded, “I came to see you, Third sister. Can you try to cheer up a bit?”

Phoenix said, “I am fine. Ah Zhan keeps me company every day.”

Hearing Phoenix say that, Xia Yangyang’s heart skipped a beat.

Seeing Xia Yangyang’s shocked expression, Phoenix said, “Do you think I’ve gone crazy, that I’m hallucinating? I’m not. I’m very lucid. I know Ah Zhan is dead. He died in my arms. How could I forget? But Xiao Qi, do you know? When you look at the wind outside, the sunset by the sea, the stars at night, I always feel like Ah Zhan is still with me, in every corner. I can feel his breath. He enters my dreams every night, and I can even feel his body warmth.”
