For some reason, tonight, he was not in control of his emotions . Previously, even if he was in a bad mood, he could still maintain his calm in the face of a difficult-to-handle development project . However, right now, he was unfathomably annoyed – weary even .
His phone rang .
Mu Yazhe picked up the call and Mu Yichen's babbling voice came through . "Daddy… . "
"Hm? What's the matter?"
"Daddy, my heart is in pain again . Yesterday, I had a dream; I dreamed of mommy… . "
The sports car abruptly came to a stop .
Rolling down the car window, Mu Yazhe's gloomy face appeared . "Hm? Mommy?"
Mu Wanrou?
"Not that mommy! I dreamed of a pretty lady gently calling a name, but it's not mine… Oh… I'm not sure! Anyway, I dreamed of her and I felt at ease . It was so warm, just like… . " The youthful voice paused for a while before he continued, grumbling, "I don't like the mommy here! She's not gentle at all . Yichen doesn't like her… Daddy, I don't want the mommy here! I want that mommy in my dreams… . "
The little guy was wailing and being willful on the other end of the phone .
Mu Yazhe's face was sullen, but his voice was unexpectedly gentle . "Be good, Yichen . Be good, okay? Daddy is on his way home to be with you!"
"Okay! I will wait for you, daddy!"
The call ended . The upturned corners of his mouth slowly went down .
Do people… really have telepathy?
The doctor said that since Little Yichen was a twin, he was bound to have telepathy with his other twin . However, when the girl gave birth to two boys for him back then, one was already not breathing upon his birth… .
After the delivery, he sent people to that hospital to inquire about the whereabouts of the child's corpse from the staff in charge of the operation . He wanted to give the child a proper burial . However, everyone claimed that he was already taken care of .
He deeply lamented the loss back then . However, for as long as Little Yichen could remember, he kept mentioning dreams about his younger brother to him .
He claimed that his younger brother had clean and refined features and looked exactly like him . He said that it was as if he were looking at himself in the mirror – completely identical .
Mu Yazhe had previously thought that telepathy between twins was nonsense .
However, there was once when Little Yichen had a high fever and the family doctor had him on an IV drip . While he was confined in bed, he kept calling out unconsciously, "Mommy… mommy…"
He sounded helpless and dependent, but not detached – unlike how he was with Mu Wanrou .
Little Yichen might have called Mu Wanrou 'mommy' on a daily basis, but he was never close to her .
When he woke up, he cried out aloud . Mu Wanrou wanted to cuddle him, but he wailed and refused her touch .
He kept on crying, "Yichen has a little brother . My little brother is sick… Yichen is heartbroken… heartbroken… . "
The child back then was not saved, so where did this younger brother come from?
No one believed his words because he was a child . Children's words carried no harm and little weight .
Little Yichen eventually stopped mentioning about his dreams .
However, he was more distant toward Mu Wanrou thereafter .
The next day was a peaceful working day .
However, in the afternoon, an unexpected incident made Yun Shishi lose her job .
Yun Shishi was originally planning to pass a proposal to her department head after lunch break . Just as she stepped out, a few aimless youths, dressed like hooligans, boldly injured the security guards by the company entrance . They barged into her department, flung a row of tables, and shouted her name loudly .
Their intrusion frightened everyone in the office . A few noticed the tattoos on their bodies and cowered to a corner . Rumors had it that these youths were well-known ruffians in a certain street in the capital and had powerful backers . Had Yun Shishi provoked these people?
