Mi Nuo stood at the entrance of the hospital, looking at the patients dressed in hospital uniforms, she felt her heart clogging up, and his legs were so heavy that she couldn't even lift them.
Just then, Yan Xia called, "Elder Sister Mi, you're here, do you want me to come pick you up?"
Mi Nuo took a deep breath. Since she was already here, she had to face it, "I'm already at the entrance of the hospital, just tell me the bed number and I'll go up myself."
After hanging up the phone, Mi Nuo headed straight for the hospital.
Yan Cheng was on the 14th floor, and her patients were all cancer patients. Looking at their pale faces, her eyes were unbearably sore.
Just as she got off the elevator, a small figure rushed over to him. Mi Nuo took a step back from the impact, but instinctively reached out and wrapped her arm around the little fellow's figure.
The little guy immediately shook off her hand and crouched down to pick up the hat.
Mi Nuo looked over. The little fellow looked to be about seven or eight years old, and was wearing a loose set of clothes. Her hair had already fallen out from the chemotherapy, and Mi Nuo's throat was tight.
The little guy pouted and apologized, "Sorry, Auntie, I ran too fast."
Looking at his innocent little face, it was hard for Mi Nuo to imagine that he would be tortured by an illness at such a young age. Laughing lightly, Mi Nuo patted his shoulder and said gently: "It's fine, it's just that you have to be careful walking around, it'll hurt a lot if you fall down."
"Understood, Auntie. I'll be going first. Mom is waiting for me downstairs."
Mi Nuo nodded and helped Xiao Budian press the button for the elevator. Only after he got in did he feel at ease to leave.
The ward that Yan Cheng was in was the VIP ward, and with his current status, materials were no longer a problem.
Yan Xia was at the door, and upon seeing her, she immediately walked towards her. She tried to squeeze out a smile, "Elder Sister Mi, thank you for coming."
"How is your brother?"
Yan Xia's eyes immediately reddened again, and her voice became weaker, "These few days, big brother's body condition has worsened again, and he's now already unconscious, and will occasionally wake up. He hasn't woken up for the past two days, the doctor said that if he continues like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for long, and we have to be mentally prepared."
Mi Nuo was speechless, it was more serious than she had imagined.
Yan Xia continued, "For the past few years, we've always been on tenterhooks, afraid that something like this would happen, but who would have thought that it would still end up like this. Elder Sister Mi, go in and take a look, I'll buy you something to eat."
Yan Xia pushed open the door, took a deep look at Mi Nuo, and then left.
Mi Nuo stood at the door, not daring to move. She instantly stared at the man lying on the bed, as if he wanted to stare at a hole.
He was wearing a ventilator and his eyes were tightly shut. There was not a single trace of life on his body. It was as if he had fallen asleep.
Even though she had already done a lot of psychological work for herself, she still couldn't get used to seeing him like this and couldn't help but save her hands.
After a long pause, she dragged her heavy legs and walked over. She didn't immediately sit by his side, instead, she walked to the window, gently pulled open the curtain, and opened the window, allowing the fresh air to flow in.
When the sunlight shone in, the man on the bed looked even more pale and his lips were transparent.
He was clearly smiling right in front of him not long ago, looking calm and relaxed. Not long ago, he was actually lying there motionlessly.
Mi Nuo was stunned for a while, then walked over and sat on the chair by the sickbed. Looking at him, Mi Nuo felt her throat tighten, and did not know what to say.
It was unknown how long he sat there before Mi Nuo spoke again, "Yan Cheng, why are you so stupid? You actually didn't tell me about such a huge matter and chose to leave. Your self-righteous attitude is good for me, do you think that I can lead a good life? Every day when I woke up, I would think, "What exactly did I do wrong? Why did you do this to me? Not only that, I also wondered if you had taken a fancy to some rich family's daughter and wanted to be her son-in-law. For this reason, I secretly regretted it; I told you about my family background, so that you wouldn't leave."
When the two were in love, Mi Nuo knew that Yan Cheng's family background was average, and was afraid that there would be a disparity in his heart, so he never mentioned about her family background.
After all these years, I have hated you. I have thought of many different scenarios when we met again, and perhaps you will appear before me with both your children and your beautiful wife by my side. Perhaps you will appear before me miserably and dejectedly, or perhaps you will become unrecognizable without the slightest trace of the love I had for you.
However, the situation was completely different from what she expected. He was still the same refined and gentle man from before, and he would still dotingly look at her.
"No, I was wrong, you are not stupid, you are just an irresponsible, selfish man, you did not say anything, it's actually all for your own good right? You have a clear understanding of my personality, you know that I'm a stubborn person, so you thought that I would always stand where I am and wait for you, when you recovered, you would be able to save me."
I am a scoundrel, too, to have wasted so many years for a man like you, and made himself an old woman. It is not worth it to think of it. You are not worth it at all." But luckily, there's someone by my side, and I also have the luck to catch his eyes. He will always pester me until I'm dead, and as long as he sees the right target, he will definitely make a decisive move. He used his own sincerity to slowly open up my heart, allowing me to fall in love with him for no reason.
After pausing for a moment, Mi Nuo continued, "Yan Cheng, do you know? Love needs to coexist with time, the deepest and heaviest love needs to grow together with time, needs to be watered by the countless drops in my life. I once thought more than once, when I see you, no matter what, I will give you two tight slaps, but when I see you, I can't lift my hand. Only recently have I figured out that it's because I don't love you anymore and don't have any feelings for you, so I don't have the strength to pursue it. Yan Cheng, I don't love him at all, I only love that man called Ye Zi Hao.
He didn't even have the courage to face the reality. I just don't love you, so there's no need for you to use this kind of method to exchange for my sympathy, to let me travel a thousand miles to see you, to properly stand up and give me my blessings if I have the ability to do so. "
