Gardiner looked at Henry, who was standing in front of him and stepped aside to make way for him. A second ago, he was laughing out loud, but now he stopped laughing and said, "Go ahead. I know you want to have a look. In fact, I'm also curious if your mother left anything after she left."
Henry glanced at Gardiner and then strode forward, with Sylvia following behind him.
At the top of the hill, full of weeds, there were many lonely graves. Many people said that now in this society no one could afford to die. The price for the cemetery was more expensive than the house. Originally, Henry could only choose this kind of barren mountain to bury his mother.
Countless solitary graves were positioned at the summit where there was no landmark. Even after more than ten years, Henry still clearly remembered where the lonely grave was.
There was no one to manage the weeds on the top of the mountain. Henry easily found the lonely grave on the top of the hill.
Henry looked at the tombstone made of wooden stakes in front of him. The handwriting on it was very blurred, but the vague traces could still make it clear the name of the owner of the tombstone.
"Emera Sheng." Sylvia read the words on the tombstone. "Husband, is this the name of your mother? It is a really nice name."
"I think so, too," Henry said with a smile.
"Mom must have been a great beauty."
"There is no exaggeration in saying that Henry's mother was definitely the most beautiful woman in the world." Gardiner came over and said, "It's a pity that Henry hasn't inherited his mother's appearance at all. Otherwise, he could rely on his appearance to make a living, just like me."
"You rely on being shameless, don't you?" Sylvia said, "By the way, honey, what is the identity of your friend?"
Gardiner's narcissistic appearance suddenly choked. He stared at Henry with his big eyes, saying, "Henry Zhang, have you not told your wife about my identity? Sister-in-law, you have to listen carefully. In Yan Xia, I am far beyond the government. I am also known as the supreme master of the Section Nine. I am known as the most handsome brother in history. I have attracted thousands of young girls, and made them cry and heartbroken. Countless handsome men found it hard to raise their heads when they saw me. Numerous aunts called me Jade White Dragon, who was born thirty years ago. All the women in Van Xia wanted to become my wife."
Gardiner stroke all kinds of poses. Finally, he found that Sylvia had already walked aside and did not listen to what he was talking about at all.
"Hey, sister- in- law, did you hear me?" Gardiner chased after her.
"Yes." Sylvia nodded and answered perfunctorily, "I was listening."
"You didn't listen!" Gardiner insisted.
"I really listened," Sylvia replied.
"Henry, you used to ask me where your father had gone. He was truly a hero who had once shouldered the task of saving the world. I didn't want you to become someone like your father because that would be too cruel. I didn't deny that I hated your father. When we were in our happiest moment, he abandoned the person he was closest to and saved everyone who had nothing to do with him for the sake of righteousness. I also admired him because I'm afraid that there weren't many people in this world who could be like him. After all, he was just an ordinary person when he was about to bear all that he had to bear."
"Henry, as his son, you should be proud of yourself. While maintaining this pride, you also have your own missions. You were different since you were born. Before your father left, he found a good teacher for you. His surname is Lu, and he is as great as your father. I can rest assured that he will take care of you."
"Son, I don't know what kind of person you are now. In the depths of your heart, there are some things that have been buried. These things will make you terrible, but I hope that you still have love in your heart. Your father was able to restrain those things. I believe that as his son, you must be able to do those things. This world is so large that we can't imagine it. The stronger we are, the smaller we will find ourselves, the more we feel that we are just a speck of dust in the world, nothing more." "Son, try your best to discover this world and face it. I believe that one day, you will see that matchless hero. You two can fight side by side, and Mama will miss you."
The content of the letter ended at this point. The signature was the name of Henry's mother.
Henry held the envelope tightly. His tears were welling up in his eyes. His mother was always the softest part of Henry's heart.
Henry really wanted to tell his mother that he had become a Supremacy Master when he was under 30, and he did not become the person who was eroded by the darkness, but Henry had no chance to tell her this.
Henry turned his head, looked at Gardiner, and said, "What else do you know? Say it."
Gardiner laughed, "Actually, there are a lot of things that I don't need to say. Soon, someone will come to you. You may not know how many secrets regarding the world are hidden in your body."
