She still remembered that Toyokawa Yushin had told her not to announce their relationship to anyone in the Toyokawa family until the right time.

"I'm serious. I know best if there's anything wrong with my body. I called you here to ask if there's anything you haven't done with me. I'll do my best to satisfy you and give you a final farewell to alleviate any regrets."

"And Mu, I've treated you like my own daughter for so many years. If you have any ideas, just speak up."

Asano Yushin looked serious and directly pointed out the topic of the conversation.

"You look so healthy, you don't look like you have any problem."

Shoko Toyokawa sat down next to him, grabbed his arms with both hands and squeezed them, but the strong muscles were completely unbending.

"His muscles are still so firm, how can he look like a dying man?"

A faint fragrance filled Asano Yushin's nose, and he realized that the distance between them was too close.

He slapped her unruly hand away and scolded her, "Did you return the etiquette you learned to your etiquette teacher? How come you have no respect for your father at all?"

"Oh, you've been abroad for so long, and when you came back you threw yourself into your medical career without a word. We finally had some time together, and you told us you were going to die. Before you died, you complained that your daughter was too close to you? Touching your body is like breaking the law!"

Asano Yushin didn't want to argue with her anymore. He should have changed the place. Her reaction was much more intense than he expected.

"Whatever you say. I'll be dead when the time comes anyway. You don't have the final say, and neither do I. This body has the final say."

He shifted his position, putting some distance between him and her.

"Didn't you promise us to take care of your health? Why are you still overworking?" She still found it hard to accept this.

"Your mother doesn't have much time left. If you don't try your best, how can you catch up? Isn't there a saying that goes, miracles and magic aren't free? If you don't spend more time and effort than the average person, it would take more than ten years to reach the level you're at now."

"In the adult world, there's no room for wanting everything; there's only unbalanced exchanges that are beyond your control."

Shoko Toyokawa pulled the coffee in front of her and silently stirred it with a spoon while listening to him talk.

"How much longer?"

Mu suddenly asked him how much time was left, and she accepted his impending death faster than Xiangzi.

The dusty memories in her mind were awakened again. In fact, it was unreasonable for this dream world to last so long. The day of Toyokawa Yushin's death might be a hint of the day when she would wake up from the dream. The cold and oppressive Wakaba family would be her final destination.

It doesn’t matter. There is still an uncontaminated wild Asano Yuuno in reality. Even if the dream is broken, just continue it in reality.

"Around 9 o'clock in the morning on the fifth day after Mizuho's treatment."

He gave a very accurate time, and Xiangzi and Hu were completely speechless.

"What about Grandpa? You are his heir."

Xiangzi thought of his grandfather, who had vacated his seat for Toyokawa Yushin, but he never expected that he would never live to see the day of his retirement.

"I will explain it to him clearly. You don't have to worry about this matter." Asano Yushin waved his hand. He also had a headache.

"Where's Mom?"

"I already have a way of dealing with procrastination."

The conversation between the two came to a temporary halt, and silence fell among the three again.

"I think it would be nice if Uncle Fengchuan could just accompany me to the amusement park for a day."

Mu suddenly expressed her wish. Xiangzi looked at her in surprise. He was still racking his brains to figure out why Mu took the initiative.

"Okay, as long as it's not too stimulating, it's fine. If you have time tomorrow, we can schedule it for tomorrow." Asano Yushin agreed immediately.

"Tomorrow."

Seeing that the two people's attention shifted to her, Xiangzi stopped playing with her two ponytails. How could she think of it so quickly? She had a lot of wishes and regrets, the kind that she could never finish listing even if she made a wish list.

"I'll think about it again. You guys go play first."

the next morning.

Asano Yushin drove to pick up Mu, and only noticed her outfit today after parking the car.

Mu chose a standard JK uniform. The soft fabric fit her body curves perfectly. She wore a pair of white canvas shoes with the laces tied casually, and a pair of goose yellow socks.

Mu has grown up. I used to think she was a typical rich woman with a natural breast pump, but in fact, it is not the case. The fluctuations are still quite obvious.

He glanced at her casually and then looked away. There was no need to invest more thoughts and attention in the person he was about to part with. He just wanted to have a good day with her and say goodbye.

"Toyokawa... Dad! Let's go!"

Mu quickly changed her words. She realized that this day belonged entirely to her. She didn't need to worry about calling him that and causing him extra trouble. She didn't need to keep a distance from him deliberately. She could just act like a spoiled child to him like she did when they were little.

"gogogo! It's my go!!"

Asano Yushin also pretended to be in high spirits just right. In the end, even though Mori Mu was not a real person in his life, he didn't mind giving her a beautiful dream.

"Dad, how do I look today?" She stood on tiptoe and took the ice cream he had just bought.

"So cute! My heart melts just looking at it! My Mu is a young, invincible, talented and beautiful girl!"

"You're praising me too much." She raised the corners of her mouth, obviously enjoying his praise.

"Crepe, I want this!" Mu saw the crepe cart from afar and pulled his hand over.

"Buy, buy, buy! You haven't finished your ice cream yet and you're already eating this. Can you really eat so much?"

Asano Yushin looked at her flat belly and didn't quite believe the saying that "girls have two stomachs, one is a bird stomach and the other is Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket."

Sure enough, she took a light bite and shook it in front of his eyes.

"If you can't eat it, you eat it!"

"There's still your saliva on it." Asano Yushin was speechless as he looked at the obvious teeth marks on the crepe and the saliva reflecting silver light in the sunlight.

"Don't waste food!" The other party didn't seem to intend to let him go.

"Well, it's up to you."

Asano Yushin started to nibble from the clean side, and when he reached the part with her traces, he immediately closed his eyes and ate it all in one breath like an ostrich.

The two of them went around and played all the parent-child projects, and the last project she chose was a bit unexpected for him.

The Ferris wheel provides tourists with a relatively enclosed space, which belongs entirely to them from the beginning to the end.

It is usually used to express love, talk about private topics or simply savor that short romantic moment.

Asano Yushin noticed her intention. Was there something she had been holding in her heart for too long and she wanted to take this opportunity to speak it out?

"Would you like to buy a bouquet of flowers to increase the chances of your confession being successful, young man?" The staff secretly promoted their additional consumption items.

"No need, I'm decades older than her, don't think too much."

"Ah? I can't tell you're so old, uncle." The staff was surprised and could only watch them enter the enclosed space and start the Ferris wheel.

As the altitude gradually increased, Asano Yushin was curious about what the other party would say to him.

Mu stared blankly at the huge sunset outside the window which was gradually swallowed by the fragmented night sky. Before the endings of other people came out, her story came to an end early.

"It feels like everything I've experienced since birth is just a fleeting dream. You're so unreal and shouldn't have appeared in my life."

She turned her head and looked at him, the emotions in her eyes were incomprehensible to him, as if a doll suddenly had human emotions.

Asano Yushin's heart skipped a beat. Would an NPC, nearly as intelligent as a living person, attempt to break the fourth wall by the end of the story? It was a shame she was destined to be trapped in this fake world.

"In your eyes, I am a virtual character. Is that what you think?"

"Correct."

"Is this something you're struggling with?"

"Ah."

He wanted to avoid the topic and get over it, but then he realized that this meeting would be his last with this virtual life. He put away his casual attitude, thought seriously, and wanted to give her his own answer.

"There's actually nothing much to discuss about this kind of question. A few lines of lyrics from a song might help alleviate your confusion."

He hummed softly.

"You are my virtual companion, always within my reach~"

"Accompany me like paper and pen, like myself, like raindrops~"

Mu listened quietly to his two short lines of lyrics, one second, two seconds, and then she asked in confusion, "It sounds like there's more than just these two lines."

"Actually, I have two more sentences, but I'm not sure if they're appropriate. Maybe everything seems fake from your perspective, but the fact that this feeling is real is enough. Just like me, an imaginary person, offering you a burning heart from my virtual chest."

He awkwardly made a heart shape with his hands, feeling that it would be better for a pink dragon to do this.

Mu pressed his chest hard, completely unable to suppress his violently beating emotions. The last empty space in his heart was gently filled by this time of confession.

Asano Yushin didn't understand why the other person was crying for no reason. In the silent space, he felt that this love-deprived child might need a warm hug.

The two hugged each other, and he gently patted the other's back to comfort her. This time, he really couldn't help but humming softly, as the scene brought back some emotions.

"You are an intimacy that has never been possible and cannot be captured~"

"But I have your kiss, your soul, your heart~"

She also gave her the remaining two lines of lyrics. This child who was entangled in philosophy finally stopped being so entangled. The night completely swallowed up the sunset, and the Ferris wheel became completely dark.

A moment later, Asano Yushin came down from the Ferris wheel, holding her hand and wiping his cheek with a tissue.

I don’t know which naughty kid splashed him in the face with a water gun, but he has amnesia and forgot the kid’s name, so he didn’t pursue the matter.

There are still a few people who need to say goodbye. It’s really hard for him to make his death so ceremonial.

25. You have very little time left, but there are so many things I want to do with you.

Minami Mori put on her lipstick and looked gorgeous in the mirror.

Although it is difficult for her to get the leading or second female roles in youth dramas at her age, her portrayal of the White Bone Demon on the workplace set is still very vivid.

She is not worried about the fact that the schedule has not been arranged yet. The connections she has accumulated over the years will not be left to gather dust.

At this stage, what she needs to consider is not making a living and a generous salary, but exploring the upper limit of what an actor like her can achieve.

It has always been this ambition to reach the top that has supported her all the way. Mori Minami vaguely sees how far away her end is, so how could she be willing to be a piece of mud and die in her comfort zone?

She stared at herself in the mirror. Her complexion lacked luster and her eyes had a hint of lifelessness. She always felt like something was missing.

Mei Nail Art scrolled through the dynamics on Line, and a name caught her attention.

When was the last time she had a night out? This guy had been abroad for so long and hadn't taken the initiative to look for her since returning. Life couldn't just be boring because of career; it needed a little passion to spice it up occasionally.

Just as she was about to call Toyokawa Yushin, an interface occupied her entire screen. When she saw the name of the caller ID, she smiled silently.

It is said that love makes people’s hearts connected. Just when I wanted to find him, he came to my door. What a self-service of Fengchuan brand.

The image of a timid and thin girl stayed in her mind for a second and then sank. That child was just a byproduct of her unrestrained demands on Youxin. There was nothing worth mentioning about her except that it would add pressure and trouble to herself.

If Youxin hadn't been so partial to her, she wouldn't even bother to look at her, let alone spend time on superficial work.

She picked up the phone with a smile, her nails scratching the table unconsciously.

"Yuxin-kun? I thought you almost forgot about me. How are you? Are you happy living abroad? My great doctor~"

"How could I possibly forget you? You're a popular actress. If I dared to ignore you, your fan club would immediately turn on me. As for living abroad, it's certainly not as easy as being with you."

"It seems that I can't deny the title of Great Doctor~"

"The facts need not be denied."

Her lover's flattery made her feel comfortable. She had long since passed the age of a girl who would feel flattered by a few compliments. Now, only the praise from close people could stir up ripples in her calm heart.

"So, what do you want to talk to me about?" She lifted her hair and held the phone closer.

Mori Minami listened to the other party's statement very carefully. As the conversation became more in-depth, her expression changed several times. At a certain point, she really couldn't bear to listen anymore.

"I haven't been with you for too long. Are you saying this on purpose to make me feel bad?"

She held the phone farther away and repeatedly checked with her eyes whether the caller ID showed him.

"No, what I said is true. If time permits, you can still meet me and do what you want to do."

Asano Yushin's voice was steady without any fluctuation.

"No, don't you think that what you proposed is too cruel to me? Or have I always been a dispensable tool in your mind? What exactly am I inferior to her..."

Minami Mori gripped her phone tightly, her fingertips turning slightly red from the excessive force.

The other party was silent for a few seconds, and what she waited for was a meaningless and extremely general sentence in Japanese.

"Feel sorry."

Mori Minami could no longer control the anger rising in her heart, and in an instant she threw her phone out. The innocent phone hit the door with a loud noise, and the conversation was forcibly interrupted by her.
