Chapter 838 My Nephew is an Only Child (The End)
Having finally raised a child who pleased him, Xiong Bufan didn't run away too quickly. He stayed by Tian Chunsheng's side, watching her arrange caregivers for the two of them and write her will.
Xiong Bufan never expected that at nearly a hundred years old, he would still be the sole heir to Tian Chunsheng's estate, which was rather absurd.
Fine wrinkles covered Tian Chunsheng's face, a sign of natural aging.
Xiong Bufan: "You look a bit like old tree bark."
Tian Chunsheng noticed that Xiong Bufan's face was starting to sag, and joked, "That's a different experience too."
"Ok."
Zhong Xiran already had a wife and children, and now he's a great-grandfather, an old man with his eyebrows buried in the yellow earth.
While Zhong Hui was alive, the two families still had some connection, but after his death, they basically had no relationship anymore. Zhong Xiran and Tian Chunsheng had long since stopped communicating, but it seemed they still remembered being rejected back then.
Even her relationship with Xiong Bufan was somewhat strained, and she wouldn't allow anyone to mention Xiong Bufan in front of her.
After his 95th birthday, Tian Chunsheng has some worries every day.
Some people find peace in old age, while others develop obsessions due to their attachment to the world or to a particular person. Tian Chunsheng belongs to the second type.
Tian Chunsheng: "Mother, do you think people have souls after they die? Do souls have memories?"
"I don't know."
The older Xiong Bufan gets, the more his face droops, much like a ragdoll cat in the eyes of a calico cat.
This phenomenon made Xiong Bufan afraid to look in the mirror every day, for fear that he would be so frightened that he couldn't sleep.
Xiong Bufan has already started planning his departure, intending to give Tian Chunsheng a surprise someday.
When it comes to being inhuman, Xiong Bufan has his own comfort zone.
"Mother, if there is an afterlife, shall we still be mother and daughter? Next time, I'll take care of you."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Bufan angrily pried open his eyes to let Tian Chunsheng see his rage. "You want to rebel against the Heavenly Gang and take advantage of me?"
"Mom, I don't have one."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Bufan released his grip and said disdainfully, "I knew you wouldn't dare."
Tian Chunsheng genuinely had this idea because she had heard that before becoming a mother, her mother was a fairy, and her mother was no exception. She wanted to see what a fairy looked like.
"I'm leaving now. Dragging my heavy body around every day is too much trouble. You're so old, I wish you a long and healthy life." Xiong Bufan closed his eyes after saying that.
She was serious about this.
Tian Chunsheng: "Mother, if I live to be a thousand years old, I'll be considered an old monster. I still want to stay by your side."
After a long pause, Xiong Bufan remained silent, and even his previously heavy breathing subsided.
Tian Chunsheng quickly rang the bell, "Is anyone there? Come and see my mother."
A group of caregivers rushed to Xiong Bufan, some checking his heart rate, others checking his breathing.
"Boss, I regret to inform you that your mother has passed away."
Tian Chunsheng: "Get him to the hospital for emergency treatment, quickly."
The caregiver didn't know if the hospital would try to save the dead, but the boss ordered her to do so.
Tian Chunsheng sat on the chair next to Xiong Bufan, not looking at Xiong Bufan's slightly bluish face, but holding Xiong Bufan's left hand, which was gradually losing its temperature.
After returning to her space, Xiong Bufan happily ran two laps. She truly missed her young and powerful original self.
Kongkong: "It's been a long time since I've seen Bufan so energetic."
Two little ginseng spirits ran behind Xiong Bufan, automatically providing background music, "Ooh ooh ooh~~, I am the Great Wild Bear."
"I am the king of the jungle!"
Lai Cai looked at the two little ginseng spirits and silently released two electric sparks on them to prevent them from taking his place.
Adults and children fight a lot, so they are very agile and dodged Lai Cai's sneak attack with a quick movement.
Lai Cai did not give up and continued to discharge electricity.
Two little ones, one big one, and a cloud were floating by, and they went off with sparks and lightning all the way. If you didn't know better, you would think it was some new kind of play.
Xiong Bufan: "Stop chasing! Stop chasing!"
Little Ginseng Spirit: "Stop chasing me, stop chasing me!"
Lai Cai floated directly above Xiong Bufan's head, preparing to attack from a high position.
After not seeing Lai Cai, Xiong Bufan stopped abruptly. The two little ginseng spirits couldn't stop in time and crashed into Xiong Bufan.
But Xiong Bufan's true form was too fat, and it sent them flying again.
Due to inertia, Lai Cai released another bolt of lightning as he flew out, almost striking Xiong Bufan, but was caught by Hengdao.
Xiong Bufan: "Hahahaha, this is fun."
The two little ginseng spirits said, "It's fun, it's fun!"
After stretching his muscles and bones, Xiong Bufan lay down on his big golden bed again.
The small world was filled with white cloths. Tian Chunsheng was in a cemetery, burning paper money incessantly, calling out, "Mother—"
Xiong Bufan: "The tombstone doesn't have a gold trim, bad review."
Kongkong: Haha, you're talking about gold trim, as if you could pry it off like a flower.
In his early years, Xiong Bufan ran his family's machines, renting them out to children to play with. He even helped find children who were abducted. Later, he simply enjoyed life and stopped caring about such things.
Xiong Bufan's lifespan was too long, long enough to outlive two generations.
So apart from the caregiver and Tian Chunsheng, everyone else at the funeral was a stranger, but Xiong Bufan didn't care about that.
Tian Chunsheng always felt that he still needed Xiong Bufan, and cried at the cemetery as if his own mother had died.
Her mother died, and now no one left a warm light on for her in the dead of night, no one picked her up from her home, no one chased away the thugs and the bad guys trying to scam her in the store, and no one helped her scare the scumbag in the middle of the night so he would never dare to cause trouble again...
When her mother brought her out of Tianjia Village, she was given a second life, freeing her from a family that favored sons over daughters, giving her the opportunity to go back to school, and letting her do whatever she wanted. Her mother would always be there for her.
Xiong Bufan's death was a huge blow to Tian Chunsheng. He couldn't eat for several days and could only silently shed tears.
Kongkong: "What a wonderful child."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Bufan turned over, pulled the blanket over his head, and began to slowly fall asleep.
The dog-shaped bicycle and the iron horse stood quietly in the space, witnessing the deep bond between Xiong Bufan and Tian Chunsheng, mother and daughter.
Tian Chunsheng passed away not long after Xiong Bufan. In accordance with her will, the people at the nursing home buried her next to Xiong Bufan. From birth to death, the mother and daughter were never separated for a single moment.
Tian Chunsheng has never been a kind-hearted person who would repay evil with kindness. Ever since he learned that Tian Yaozu was working in his company, he has been targeting him for decades, even after he left the company.
So after her death, the people around Tian Yaozu became kinder, and no one bothered him around his house or tried to disrupt his work and life.
