Ruan Man leaned slightly on the pillow, with a look of despair and sadness on his face.
Looking at her niece's overly worried face, she just smiled miserably and shook her head silently.
Although she had recuperated for a few days, she still looked like a plant that had been drained of water, without any vitality, and her face was extremely pale.
After Ruan Bai put the curtains in place, he took out a bunch of red grapes from the fruit basket, rinsed them in the water faucet next to him for a while, then carefully picked them one by one, put them in a small fruit container, and served them In front of Ruan Manwei.
"Auntie, eat some grapes."
Ruan Bai handed over a bright red grape: "I know that people's mouths are bitter during infusion, and it would be better to eat something with a slightly sweet taste. When I am sick, I like to eat something sweet every time. Sweet fruit."
Ruan Manwei couldn't bear to ignore his niece's kindness, so he opened his mouth and swallowed the grape.
The sweetness of grape juice dilutes the bitter taste in her mouth.
Ruan Man said listlessly: "No matter how sweet the fruit is, with my current appearance, I only feel bitter..."
Ruan Bai sat next to Ruan Manwei, gently held her hand, and said comfortingly, "Auntie, with the advanced medical technology, you will definitely get better, trust me..."
Aunt's face without any desire to survive, obviously did not want to have an operation, she wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know what to say.
Ruan Man smiled bitterly: "Actually, the death rate of breast cancer is the lowest among all types of cancer, but its greatest cruelty lies not in killing people, but in depriving women of the most beautiful beauty." , the most maternal part. You know what a beautiful woman my aunt is. Even a small scar on my body is unbearable to me, let alone cutting off mine, mine... If you don’t have them, you say Am I still a woman?"
She choked up and didn't even dare to say those two words.
Ruan Bai felt pain in her heart, and she clenched her aunt's hand even tighter.
Ruan Manwei worked hard to adjust her emotions, maybe because she felt too uncomfortable, she took a grape from the tray and stuffed it into her mouth.
The sweet and sour taste permeated her taste buds, making her feel a little better.
Ruan Manwei looked into his niece's eyes and said, "Xiaobai, I can't accept surgery, let alone my incomplete self. You don't know, he is a perfectionist, he doesn't like women with flaws, I can't change Become a woman he hates..."
"Aunt, did you refuse the operation because of your uncle?" Ruan Bai was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking.
My aunt seems to have a lot of things on her mind. Is the "he" she is talking about the uncle she has only met once?
Ruan Bai vaguely remembered that he seemed to have seen that uncle once in high school.
That year, he personally came to pick up grandpa to go to Japan, and she was quite impressed with him.
After all, Ruan Bai, who was a girl from a small town at that time, had never seen such a handsome, mature and refined man, it felt like he had stepped out of a painting.
At that time, my uncle was very gentle to my aunt, maybe it was Aiwujiwu, but he also had a very gentle attitude towards himself, calling her a little girl dotingly, and left a sum of money for himself when he left.
Ruan Bai had a good impression of that uncle, but he didn't expect that such a big change would happen later...
Ruan Manwei forcibly cheered up, held Ruan Bai's hand instead, and said bitterly: "Xiaobai, if I have a daughter, she should be as old as you, well-behaved, quiet, virtuous, beautiful...he I like my daughter the most, if there is a child between us, I don't think the two of us will get to where we are today..."
Tears fell from the corners of Ruan Manwei's eyes.
Although she is already in her forties, her face is still as smooth as jade, her skin is as delicate as before, without any blemishes, and even the crow's feet can't be seen at the corners of her eyes.
How could such a perfect aunt endure the deformity of her body? If it was Ruan Bai herself, she would not accept it either.
But thinking that her illness could not be delayed any longer, Ruan Bai said cruelly: "Auntie, you must have the surgery. Otherwise, I will go to Japan to invite my uncle over..."
"Xiaobai, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I know how my body is doing."
Ruan Manwei's eyes were deep and lifeless, and she closed her eyes in pain: "I am already content to be able to survive until now. You don't have to bother to go to Japan to find that so-called uncle, he has already married, and now his family My son has been born for several months..."
It was like a bolt from the blue!
In an instant, Ruan Bai seemed to understand the reason why her aunt had no love in her life. The man she loves to find another marriage is probably the root of her despair. But she still didn't understand, that man had already married another woman and had children, why did my aunt refuse the operation for that heartbroken man?
Ruan Bai wanted to continue persuading her aunt, but seeing her tired and pale face, she finally endured it.
Let aunt rest for the time being, she will definitely think of a way to let aunt perform the operation!
...
On the other side, the Lin family.
Although Zhou Qing obediently stayed at home to recuperate, she couldn't help thinking about her daughter all the time.
If her body didn't allow her, she wished she could go to her right away.
Holding the mobile phone, she flipped through the address book over and over again, looking at a certain number, because she had even memorized it by heart because she had read it countless times.
Ruan Bai's cell phone number.
Zhou Qing got the number from her father-in-law, and because her father-in-law is Ruan Bai's client, she has always kept her number.
Zhou Qing really wanted to call Ruan Bai, but couldn't find a suitable reason, how should she tell her?
Could it be that you told her directly, Ruan Bai, I am your biological mother, but would that child believe it?
When Zhou Qing was feeling extremely melancholy, she suddenly remembered that she had Ruan Bai's WeChat account, so she began to look through Ruan Bai's circle of friends.
Fortunately, Ruan Bai's circle of friends did not set the permission to be visible for only three days.
However, her circle of friends posts very little about daily life, let alone a lot of selfies like Ning Ning. Most of her posts are about architecture, or some of her own design works, Or some warm moments, accompanied by some very fresh and beautiful illustrations.
Despite this, Zhou Qing still watched with relish.
In particular, she watched over and over again the works designed by Ruan Bai, and felt both gratified and sad in her heart.
She is gratified that her own daughter is so good, and sad that she was not able to be with her every moment of Ruan Bai's growth...
