The Phoenix is Back - Chapter 64

Chapter 064 Ximing’s Death
No one expected such a thing to happen.

Xiao Xile looked at Xiao Ximing with horror on her face, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.

“Ah! So spicy! So spicy! Third sister, why are you holding the wine! Quickly give me the tea!” Xiao Ximing waved his hand and slapped his tongue in the room.

The madam and miss at the table laughed at the same time.

Bi Yun, who was standing behind Xiao Xiwei, hurriedly poured a cup of tea. Xiao Ximing snatched the tea and drank it all in one mouthful.

“Ming’er, are you … are you alright?” Looking at Xiao Ximing, Xiao Xiwei felt somewhat uneasy.

“It’s fine! That’s right, this wine is so spicy!” After drinking the tea, Xiao Ximing looked at Xiao Xiwei embarrassedly and stuck out his tongue.

“It’s good that you’re fine.” Looking at the lively Xiao Ximing, the tense string in Xiao Xiwei’s mind could finally be slightly relaxed.

“Miss, what’s wrong with you?” Suddenly, Xia’er’s exclamation came from the side.

Xiao Xile’s entire body trembled, his face pale, and he leaned against Xia’er’s body.

Seeing Xiao Xi Le’s expression, Xiao Xi Wei’s right eyelid jumped twice. The string that she was just relieved of immediately tensed up again. Her eyes stared fixedly at Xiao Xi Le.

Could it be that there really is something wrong with that wine?

Just as this thought crossed her mind, Xiao Ximing’s painful groan suddenly sounded in her ears, “It hurts … Second sister, my stomach hurts …”

“Ximing! Doctor, quickly invite a doctor!” Xiao Xiwei hurriedly stepped forward to support Xiao Ximing and screamed.

“It hurts … It hurts …” Xiao Ximing suddenly fell to the ground, clutching his chest and rolling around on the ground.

Everyone was frightened by this scene.

Especially Xiao Xile. She looked at her younger brother’s painful and ferocious appearance and felt that there were hundreds of hands grabbing her heart fiercely. It was painful and frightening.

Suddenly, Xiao Ximing rolled to Xiao Xile’s feet. He reached out and grabbed the corner of Xiao Xile’s skirt. He raised his head with difficulty and looked at her painfully, “Sister … Sister, save … save me …”

Looking at the pair of eyes filled with despair and pain, Xiao Xile suddenly screamed and kicked Xiao Ximing under his feet, “Go away! Don’t come over! Don’t come over!”

“Xiao Xile! What are you doing!” Xiao Xi roared, ran over a few steps, pushed Xiao Xile away, and then squatted down to forcefully carry Xiao Ximing up.

At this moment, Xiao Ximing’s face was already blue and purple. His right hand grabbed onto the front of his chest, panting heavily. His once agile eyes were suffocated with despair, and large drops of tears gushed out of his eyes. He raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Xiwei, panting with difficulty, “Third, third sister, I … I am, am I … going to … die …”

“Don’t talk nonsense” Xiao Xiwei held Xiao Ximing’s hand and forcefully pulled out a smile, but his tears blurred his vision.

Xiao Ximing gripped Xiao Xiwei’s hand forcefully, his eyes filled with fear. “Third Sister … Sister, I … I’m afraid …”

“I’m not afraid tomorrow! Big sister is here to accompany you!” Xiao Xi hugged Xiao Ximing into her arms with great force, and tears fell down her cheeks.

“Sister … Sister, I feel pain …”

“It won’t hurt tomorrow. The doctor will be here soon.” Xiao Xiwei felt as if her heart was being forcefully pulled by someone, causing her to gasp in pain. She could feel that the life in her arms was leaving bit by bit, just like the child in her stomach had turned into blood droplets. The tide of despair that surged towards her instantly engulfed her.

At this moment, Xiao Ximing seemed to overlap with her lost child.

“Tomorrow” Looking at Xiao Ximing in Xiao Xiwei’s arms, Xiao Xile’s tears gushed out as she covered her mouth and retreated.

Xiao Xiwei suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Xile ruthlessly, “The antidote is here! Hand over the antidote quickly!”

“No, there’s no antidote!” Xiao Xile shook her head in horror. Something knocked her head hard at this moment, and she felt dizzy and numb.

“Xiao Xile! Tomorrow is your younger brother! Are you going to watch him die!” Xiao Xiwei stared fixedly at Xiao Xile, her eyes almost spitting out fire.

“No! No!” Xiao Xile looked at Xiao Ximing, whose aura was getting weaker and weaker, and suddenly screamed. Then, she turned around and rushed out.

“Xiao Xile!” Looking at Xiao Xile’s back, Xiao Xiwei felt that the faint light in her heart had suddenly been extinguished. She shouted at the back figure with tears in her heart and lungs.

However, that figure did not pause at all and quickly disappeared.

The tears finally flowed uncontrollably into the river again.

No matter how much she hated him, Ming’er was still her younger brother! How could she be so heartless! How could he be so heartless!

Xiao Ximing stretched out his hand with great difficulty as if he wanted to wipe away the tears on her face, but before his hand could touch her face, it suddenly fell.

“Tomorrow” Xiao Xiwei was stunned.

She cowardly and slowly reached out her hand and gently pushed the person in her arms.

Nothing.

Her tears finally surged out of control like a flood, “Tomorrow, wake up … don’t scare my sister …”

“Xiwei, what happened to him tomorrow?” At this moment, Xiao Yan, who was having a banquet in the front hall, hurried over when he heard the news.

As soon as the master left, the guest naturally followed closely behind.

For a moment, the hall was packed with people.

Hearing someone mention Xiao Ximing, Xiao Xiwei’s entire body trembled as if she suddenly understood. She shouted loudly outside the door, “Doctor! Doctor! Is the doctor here?”

“Sister” When Xiao Xi Yang saw Xiao Xi Ming lying in Xiao Xi Wei’s embrace, his face was green and purple without any movement, his heart skipped a beat, and a trace of fear flashed through his mind.

“Miss, Miss, the doctor is here.” Suddenly, an urgent voice sounded. Bi Yun dragged a doctor Zhang and ran over with him.

“Doctor Zhang, look at my brother!” Xiao Xiwei looked at Doctor Zhang hopefully, as if a drowning man had grabbed the last straw to save his life.

Doctor Zhang didn’t even have time to breathe. He squatted on the ground and stretched out his hand to catch Xiao Ximing’s pulse. As soon as he did, his expression changed. Then, he extended his hand to his nose, and finally to the artery on his neck. Finally, he leaned over to his chest and listened for a while.

Seeing Doctor Zhang’s expression, Xiao Yan was a little anxious. “Doctor Zhang, my son …”

Doctor Zhang raised his hand heavily and opened Xiao Ximing’s eyes to take a look. Finally, he sighed and slowly stood up. He said to Xiao Yan heavily, “Doctor Xiao, this old man … this old man has done my best.”

“What do you mean! Aren’t you a doctor? Hurry up and treat my son!” Xiao Yan was furious.

Doctor Zhang’s voice trembled as he said, “Lord Xiao, no, it’s not that I’m untreated. It’s just that … it’s just that Young Master Ling, Young Master Ling has already left …”

Xiao Yan felt as if his head had been heavily smashed by someone. He staggered back a few steps and was about to fall. Fortunately, Xiao Xiyang stepped forward to support him in time.

“Doctor Zhang, what do you mean you’ve already left? My younger brother … he’s only nine years old this year and has always been healthy. Did you … did you see wrongly?” Xiao Xiyang’s hoarse voice trembled.

Just now, he was still a lively child, how could he say that he was gone?

“That’s right! Doctor Zhang, are you mistaken? My son is only nine years old this year …” A layer of mist appeared in Xiao Yan’s eyes.

Xi Yang had been taken to Wu Cheng by his father since childhood. His two daughters had never been close to him since childhood. Only his youngest son, Xi Ming, was with him to teach homework. In order for him to be successful, he was sent to school at the age of six. Every time he came back from school, he would always happily call him father …

How could such a child be gone?

Doctor Zhang looked at Xiao Yan awkwardly and opened his mouth. After a long time, he whispered, “Doctor Xiao, please … I’m sorry.”

The last four words smashed into Xiao Yan’s head like a giant rock. His pupils suddenly opened, and he couldn’t breathe out from his chest in one breath. Then, he fell straight down.

“Father!” Xiao Xiyang cried out in alarm and hurriedly asked someone to help Xiao Yan down.

When the banquet reached this point, how could it continue? Everyone embarrassedly said a few words of relief to Xiao Xiyang, and then left.

The originally noisy hall immediately quieted down.

“Sister, second sister, do you think this clay statue looks like me?”

“Second sister, don’t be sad. Tell me who will laugh at you in the future. I, I will definitely paint behind his back! Let’s see if he dares to laugh at you!”

“Second sister, when I grow up, I will also marry a wife as beautiful as you.”

After she was disfigured, the only person who didn’t dislike her and bought a clay figurine to make her laugh, saying that she wanted to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law like her, was quietly lying in her arms without any sound. He was clearly calling himself sister sweetly one moment ago, and clearly, he was still acting coquettishly with him the other moment … It was only a blink of an eye, how could it be, how could it be gone?

“Sister” Xiao Xiyang, who had escorted everyone away, saw that Xiao Xiwei still maintained the posture of reporting to Xiao Ximing just now. At this time, her tears had already dried up, but the grief and despair in her eyes made people feel sad when they saw it.

“Big brother, do you think … Tomorrow is just sleeping? Just now, he called me big sister happily.” Xiao Xiwei looked at Xiao Xiyang and whispered.

The tip of Xiao Xiyang’s nose sore, and his tears couldn’t help but fall down, “Sister, don’t be sad, let Ming’er, let Ming’er walk at ease!”

“No … no …” Xiao Xiwei lowered her head and looked at Xiao Ximing, who was quiet in her arms. The tears that had just stopped suddenly fell down again. “Brother, did you know that? He just hugged me and shouted, Big sister … I hurt … I know, I know! But I can’t help him!”

“Sister!” Looking at Xiao Xiwei in front of him, Xiao Xiyang felt exceptionally sad. He reached out his hand to surround her to comfort her, but she pushed him away.

“Don’t touch me! You know what? I … I killed him! I was the one who deserved to die! Heavens! Did you let me live just to hurt me like this again?” Xiao Xiwei hugged Xiao Ximing and cried out in tears.

That glass of wine was originally for her to drink!

If she drank that glass of wine, he wouldn’t die tomorrow!

She was the one who killed him!

Xiao Xiyang looked at Xiao Xiwei who was in despair and sorrow. His chest felt as if it had been torn apart, but there was nothing he could do.

“Xiwei!” At this moment, a deep voice accompanied by hurried footsteps rang out.
