Su Kuo lowered his eyes and shook his head. “Don’t leave. I want Sister to accompany me.”

Thinking that Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao did not have much time left, Su Kuo wanted to cry.

He knew, Little Niu knew, but they couldn’t say it out loud or tell Su Xiaolu because they couldn’t change any trajectory.

Su Xiaolu’s current ability was extraordinary. If she wanted to do something bad, no one might be able to stop her. Therefore, it was best if she did not know.

Su Kuo did not let Su Xiaolu leave because he did not want Su Xiaolu to not be able to make it back in time for Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao’s last moments.

Therefore, he and Little Niu returned and asked Su Xiaolu to stay so that she would not miss their last time together.

Su Xiaolu sensed Su Kuo’s strange emotions. She frowned slightly and her voice instantly choked. “Little Kuo, are Father and Mother’s lives coming to an end?”

Su Xiaolu knew that Su Sanlang was 77 years old this year, and Madam Zhao was 74 years old this year. They were already old. They would pass away one day, but she did not expect it to be this year.

How much more time would they have together?

“Sister, Brother Niu said that the heavenly secrets can’t be leaked. I didn’t say anything. This can’t be considered a leak, right?”

Su Kuo was a little helpless. Over the years, he had learned a lot about how to deal with people, but he was still inexperienced in lying.

Su Xiaolu’s mind was in turmoil. She could not say anything to Su Kuo for a moment. She returned to her room in a daze. She had thought about it a lot.

In this world, it has been 45 years. She had long become one with this place.

Her parents doted on her very much. They did their best to give her the best. When she was young, her family background was not good, but she had never suffered or been cold. Even then, she was protected.

Her parents’ lives were coming to an end, and her home was going to be gone.

Su Xiaolu’s heart ached.

Su Kuo watched as Su Xiaolu returned to her room in a daze. He called out but she did not answer. Su Kuo was also anxious. He immediately went to look for Little Niu. In his heart, Little Niu could solve anything. He must have a way.

Su Kuo rushed to Little Niu’s room. He was about to say something when he saw a gentle smile on Little Niu’s face. His faint smile seemed to see everything clearly.

Su Kuo said helplessly, “Brother Niu, what do you think we should do now? Will

Sister go astray while being sad?”

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao would pass away sooner or later, but knowing was one thing, and accepting was another.

Little Niu smiled and said, “Little Kuo, don’t be anxious. Senior Sister won’t go astray. She can’t bear to.”

Su Kuo was a little depressed. “What can’t bear to?”

He had learned for so many years, but he had never learned to understand some hidden meanings. He could not understand.

Little Niu looked at Su Kuo and explained to him, “Their lifespan is up. Forcefully staying will definitely cause karma. Senior Sister won’t let Father and Mother get involved in such karma.”

When Little Niu said that, Su Kuo understood.

If Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao wanted to extend their lives, they would definitely absorb the vitality of others. This would cause karma. If they could not repay it in this life, they would repay it double in their next life.

Su Xiaolu was also from the Mystic Sect. It was impossible for her not to know the consequences. Hence, she could not bear to.

Su Kuo immediately ran out again. He understood, so he had to stay by Su Xiaolu’s side at this moment.

Su Kuo had not transformed into his beast form for a long time. He opened the door with his head and entered the room. Seeing Su Xiaolu lying on the bed, he walked over and went to bed. He used his claws to pull Su Xiaolu to his side.

Su Kuo was quiet.

Su Xiaolu cried silently. She recalled many things.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao’s lives were about to come to an end. Their fate was almost gone.

However, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao did not know yet, so they were happy every day.

Su Xiaolu was in a daze for the entire night. When the first rays of sunlight rose in the morning, Su Xiaolu wiped her tears and got up. She took a pen and paper to write a letter.

In these last days, she hoped that their family would be reunited.

Su Xiaolu touched Su Kuo. “Little Kuo, don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine.”

Su Kuo rubbed his head against her palm and said nothing.

He stayed by Su Xiaolu’s side until she returned to normal.

A few days later, Su Xiaoling and Zhou Heng arrived.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were overjoyed. Su Xiaoling said that she had something to do here and thought that since she wasn’t here for the new year, she should come home.

Su Xiaoling thought about what Su Xiaolu had said in her letter. Her parents were not in good health. She was a little puzzled. Her parents seemed to be in good health.

Su Xiaoling didn’t have the time to ask Su Xiaolu. Anyway, she was already here.

The family was reunited.

The younger generation was also lively.

In mid-February, Zhou Zhi brought Zhou Zhuo over.

This was the first time Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao had seen Zhou Zhuo. Zhou Zhuo bowed respectfully and even knelt down to kowtow.

While they were happy, they were also a little uneasy. “Get up, get up.” This child was born to be the Crown Prince. He was the future emperor.

“Grandma, it’s my duty.”

Zhou Zhuo’s smile was very warm and bright. He was very polite. Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao liked him very much.

Zhou Zhi restrained his aura, so after greeting them, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao quickly ignored him.

At night, the Su family was very lively. Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao could not stop smiling. They were really too happy.

After dinner, Madam Zhao looked at Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling and suddenly said, “Xiaoling, Xiaolu, sleep with mother tonight.”

Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling nodded in agreement.

At night, the sisters leaned against Madam Zhao on the left and right. Madam Zhao suddenly sighed and talked about the past.

When Su Xiaoling was born, her life was very difficult. At that time, Madam Wang and Old Master Su were still alive. When they found out that she was a girl, Madam Wang cursed very badly. She had two foolish sons and she could not straighten her back at home, so they went to work a few days after giving birth to Su Xiaoling.

As Madam Zhao thought about this, she couldn’t help but tear up. “At that time, mother never dreamed that this would happen.”

“Xiaoling has been sensible since she was young. She was so young, but she values brotherhood. Even though she knows that Chong and Hua are not smart, she still calls them big brothers happily.”

Those memories had been buried in her heart for many years. She did not know what was going on today, but she kept thinking about them. However, no matter when she thought of them, there was sweetness in bitterness.

Madam Zhao couldn’t help but think that so many days that she managed to get through were all because of her children. They were too good, too good. That was why she got through it night after night.

“After that, when Xiaolu was born, our lives became even better. No matter how difficult it was, mother felt very happy that the mountain in her heart was gone. Our family was together. No hardship could separate us.”

Madam Zhao recalled that time and her heart was as firm as ever. She had no regrets in her life..
