The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 409 - 272: As If Worlds Apart

Shen Ruosui was full of question marks, and in a moment of carelessness, she revealed what she shouldn’t have said.

"What are you thinking? Your father could live to eighty-eight..."

As soon as she finished, she quickly covered her mouth.

Frustrated, she tapped her head and quickly put on a serious face, "Little Nuannuan, I admit the loyalty in love that your parents had is something rarely seen in modern society.

But that doesn’t mean that your father has to follow your mother after she leaves.

He should have the right to choose his own life, rather than having you, his daughter, make decisions for him.

Enough, since we’re already talking about this, I won’t hide it from you. Your father has a long road ahead unless he encounters a natural disaster; otherwise, he will live peacefully until old age.

He also can’t choose to give up his life; otherwise, after death, he will surely fall into a hell you cannot imagine."

Yun Chunnuan stared blankly at the Grandmaster, who was becoming more serious with each word.

That’s not what she meant!

She didn’t want her dad to die!

She just knew that mom would never wake up again and didn’t know how to tell dad.

She thought that if there was such comfort, would dad feel a little better...

She had seen how much dad loved mom since she was young, and it was all ingrained in her heart.

She used to not quite understand the love between men and women, love pledged with life and death.

Always felt that dad and mom were too clingy, and even as their daughter, she wasn’t as important as they were to each other.

But after traveling through time and meeting her husband, Yun Chunnuan gradually understood.

Once you meet the right person, it’s them and no one else, even if there are better people in the world, your eyes and heart can’t hold anyone else.

If anything were to happen to her, her husband certainly wouldn’t be able to live alone, and she was the same.

But they still have Dora, and if they lose each other, there’s still a spiritual support.

What about dad?

He has nothing left...

No!

Not nothing!

He still has grandparents!

Yun Chunnuan’s eyes suddenly lit up; dad is a good husband, a good father, and an even better son to his parents!

With his wife and daughter gone, he still has the two elderly parents.

That’s his motivation to keep living!

"Grandmaster! Let me see my dad; I’ll go persuade him!"

No matter what, he can’t keep living like this.

The Grandmaster is right; a hopeless wait is too cruel. Instead of letting dad spend his latter years in toil, it’s better to... let go.

"Have you thought it through?"

"Yes. Grandmaster, are you sure my mother has definitely traveled through time? She can’t return to the original world, right?"

"Of course, I’m sure. My colleagues are already checking the records of time travelers. As soon as someone fitting your mother’s profile appears, it will be confirmed first thing."

"Okay, Grandmaster, can I use the Soul Body to enter my original world and see my mom one last time?"

Shen Ruosui had originally wanted Yun Chunnuan to visit in her dream, but seeing Little Nuannuan’s tearful eyes, she felt sorry for her. After thinking for a while, she said, "Dream visitation can last half an hour, but if you enter your own world, my current energy is insufficient, and I might not be able to support it for long.

At most twenty minutes, you must summon me actively, as there is a time difference between the two places, and I’m afraid of any accident."

After Yun Chunnuan agreed, Shen Ruosui let her lie on the little bed.

The method wasn’t much different from last time, except this time, when her soul left her body, Yun Chunnuan didn’t fall directly into darkness.

Instead, she saw the Grandmaster operating something on the computer.

When she opened something similar to a video, she then filled out a series of details.

Yun Chunnuan then felt a dizzying sensation.

It was like being sucked into a huge whirlpool; even though the soul doesn’t feel pain, she felt as if her body was undergoing an execution, with every pore on her body screaming out in pain.

It was so painful that the body lying on the bed frowned.

Seeing this, Shen Ruosui slapped her forehead: Oh no! She forgot to tell Little Nuannuan that time travel is painful! She was only concerned about setting the right time for fear of mistake and didn’t ask if Yun Chunnuan could withstand it...

Shen Ruosui stared intently at the screen displaying what looked like an electrocardiogram, watching the violent fluctuations with a heart beating fast.

After a while, the image gradually stabilized.

Falling from the giant whirlpool to the ground, Yun Chunnuan’s Soul Body appeared dim and exhausted.

She saw people walking by her, dressed in modern clothes and styled with modern hairstyles, including the buildings around her, all so familiar from her past.

Yun Chunnuan suddenly felt an urge to cry.

It felt like a lifetime ago; who would have thought that more than two years ago, she had come to this hospital.

Yun Chunnuan knew she didn’t have much time and quickly ran... no, floated to the location the Grandmaster had instructed earlier.

Reaching the ward where her mom was, Yun Chunnuan passed through the door.

In the ward, apart from her mom lying motionlessly on the bed, there was no one else.

Yun Chunnuan drew close, seeing her mom’s face deeply sunken in, recalling her once valiant image, her heart ached even more.

Her mom wasn’t the traditional type of demure woman; she was independent, strong, and ambitious.

Since Yun Chunnuan was little, it was mostly dad who took care of her.

She used to think mom didn’t love her, at least not like other mothers who treat their children as their lifelines.

But after her ’death,’ it was the first time she clearly realized, mom’s love for her was no less than any mother’s.

Mom strived hard at work just to ensure she had no worries about food and clothing from a young age.

And her heart that loved acting, mom always noticed it, and it was mom who first stood up to support her pursuit of dreams when she hesitated.

Reflecting on the past, Yun Chunnuan’s heart hurt even more. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

She wanted to touch her mom’s face, but her fingers passed through her body, unable to even perform such a simple action.

"Mom, where are you exactly? Are you okay now? I really miss you, really..."

"Who?"

Just then, the door to the ward suddenly opened.

Dad Yun appeared at the door, accompanied by a puzzled nurse, "Who?"

Dad Yun heard a girl’s crying voice inside the room, but he knew in his heart that his daughter was in another world he couldn’t touch or see, so he didn’t think it was his daughter.

However, when the door opened, it was just a back view, and the medicine bag in Yun Yi’s hand fell to the ground.

"Nuan... Nuannuan?"

The nurse stared at him with a look as if he were a monster, "What Nuan? Mr. Yun, you should take a good rest, or maybe hire a caregiver. Taking care of the patient all by yourself isn’t the right way."

The nurse picked up the medicine bag from the floor and, as if nobody else were around, walked into the ward to administer fluids to the woman on the bed.

Yun Yi saw with his own eyes the nurse’s hand passing through his daughter’s body...
