Chapter 808: Mo Yinhe Arrives (1)
Si Mingjing reminisced about the past, and the thing she regretted most was when she was five years old and lacked the ability to save her mother, only able to watch as her mother faded away before her eyes.
But if she went back in time, could she save her mother?
Si Mingjing’s hand tightened around the chopsticks.
It’s useless.
It’s not because she didn’t know medicine that she couldn’t save her mother.
At that time, both mentors had already done their best. Her mother had a chronic illness accumulated over the years, and even the two mentors were powerless. What significance would going back for just an hour have?
Thinking about this, Si Mingjing felt dejected and her mood plummeted.
Su Chaoyang was still asking, "Mom, Mom..."
"Hmm?" Si Mingjing snapped back to reality.
Su Chaoyang asked crisply, "Mom, what do you regret the most?"
"Mom has many regrets, but even if I could reverse time and go back, it wouldn’t have any meaning."
Si Mingjing handed the Regret Medicine back to Ye Siyuan, saying, "You keep it, or give it to someone who needs it more."
Ye Siyuan noticed Si Mingjing’s low spirits and didn’t dare to ask why. She said playfully, "Well, I’ll give it to my brother when he comes. My brother regrets most letting you leave then, missing out on five years."
Si Mingjing: "..."
"That’s right, I want to give it to my brother, let him stop you!"
Si Mingjing pressed her fingers to her brow and said earnestly, "Siyuan, I think things are pretty good now. I’ve learned a lot of medical skills, and everything has gone smoothly since reuniting with your brother. There’s no need to go back, right? Besides, regardless of whether I leave or not, I still need to reincarnate."
Ye Siyuan didn’t think so.
"Sister-in-law, even if you don’t leave, you can still reincarnate under my brother’s protection, right? Why subject yourself to hardship on Prison Star? My brother can also protect your mother, Si Yao, well, so she won’t have to be sent to Prison Star. If my brother knew that Si Yao was pregnant with you at the time, he would never have allowed anyone to exile her to Prison Star..."
Si Mingjing’s eyes suddenly lit up, yes!
This Regret Medicine could be put to good use, used at the moment the Song Family wanted to frame her mother, to stop her from going back to the countryside with Song Tengfei, then she wouldn’t have been framed as a murderer.
Unfortunately, she had already forgotten the memories before her reincarnation, and couldn’t return to that time period.
But Siyuan might be able to.
Si Mingjing grasped Siyuan’s hand tightly: "Siyuan, I have a favor to ask you."
Seeing her sister-in-law’s serious expression, Ye Siyuan also sat up straight, "Sister-in-law, go ahead."
"Go back to the past, help me stop my mother, Si Yao, from going to the countryside with Song Tengfei. Is that possible?"
Ye Siyuan thought for a moment, "Sure, sister-in-law, you want to save Si Yao? But I don’t know which day, what specific time?"
"I’ll find out."
Si Mingjing knew the day, but not the specific flight, though it was only a few years ago. It shouldn’t be difficult to find out; as long as they could stop her mother before boarding the plane, everything could be reversed.
Si Mingjing felt great, and without finishing her meal, she called Su Cheng.
Su Cheng had been in A Country since the new year and hadn’t gone to Yecheng. At that moment, he was singing at a clubhouse with some wild friends. When Si Mingjing called, because it was too noisy in the private room, Su Cheng stood up and walked out.
Standing in the corridor, Su Cheng took out a cigarette, lit it, and said, nonchalantly, "Sister Si? Go ahead."
Si Mingjing didn’t waste words with Su Cheng and said directly, "Help me find out about the flight my mother took with Song Tengfei to the countryside, quickly tell me. The one where my mother was framed as a murderer."
Su Cheng was puzzled, "Why are you looking into that?"
"Just do it!"
Su Cheng said, "No need to check, I think I remember it."
"Hmm?"
"That time, I was still in high school, it happened to be during summer vacation. I remember it clearly. That day, I had an appointment with some friends to go out of town for fun. At the airport, I ran into Sister Si. She said she was going to accompany your father to his hometown. I heard there were some local specialties, and I even asked Sister Si to bring some back for me. Who knew, after returning from the trip, I heard that Sister Si had become a murderer."
Si Mingjing raised an eyebrow, "Sister Si?"
"Don’t use that tone. Your mother is only more than ten years older than me. If you hadn’t grown up on Prison Star, you would only be a little girl of six now. What’s wrong with calling your mother Sister Si?"
That wasn’t the point, and Si Mingjing didn’t want to dwell on titles.
She said, "Tell me, what exact day was it?"
Su Cheng flicked the ash, leaned against the corridor wall, and said, "Let me think. I’ll check my ticket purchase records on the app, it should be there. I’ll hang up for now."
Si Mingjing continued to eat while waiting for Su Cheng to call back.
About ten minutes later, Su Cheng sent a screenshot of his flight information from back then to Si Mingjing.
Then, Su Cheng said, "I ran into Sister Si about ten minutes before boarding. At that time, we were all in the VIP lounge. She must have bought a first-class ticket."
Si Mingjing replied, "Thanks. By the way, has your phone number changed over the years? Was it also this number back then?"
Si Mingjing thought that when Siyuan went back to the past, she could call Su Cheng’s phone to conveniently confirm her mother’s exact location. After all, even the VIP lounges had many rooms, and finding them would waste time.
Su Cheng said, "It’s this number. Why?"
Si Mingjing said, "Nothing, hanging up."
"Hey..."
Hearing the dial tone, Su Cheng cursed under his breath, "That Si girl, she really doesn’t treat me like an outsider, not even a single polite exchange, using me and then dumping me, truly a scumbag woman!"
Then he thought to himself, "That’s only because she treats me like a real third brother, only a real third brother would be treated with such impoliteness."
After comforting himself for a while, Su Cheng decided to forgive Si Mingjing.
Si Mingjing looked at the screenshot that Su Cheng had sent, confirmed the exact time, and handed the screenshot to Ye Siyuan to see.
Ye Siyuan said, "Sister-in-law, once I’m full, I’ll give it a try."
Si Mingjing suppressed her excitement inside. How she longed to change her mother’s fate, how she wished her mother were still alive.
After eating and drinking to her satisfaction, Ye Siyuan wiped her mouth and sat on the sofa to digest.
She tried to recall what she was doing at that time on that day.
It was too difficult!
She couldn’t possibly remember!
Too many days had passed.
The only thing she could be sure of was that her sister-in-law had left the dragon egg and departed from her brother by then.
Perhaps at that time, she had already been reincarnated in Si Yao’s womb.
Ye Siyuan slipped the Regret Medicine into her mouth, held her breath, and meditated, unable to remember what she was doing at the time, only able to silently recite in her heart: "I want to go to year X, month X, day X, hour X, minute X..."
Si Mingjing sat beside Ye Siyuan, her right hand tightly gripping her left hand.
At this moment, Ye Siyuan felt a sudden dizziness, as if a powerful force was about to pull her in. She felt a slight fear, the sensation of falling was like taking an elevator and suddenly losing control.
