On the night of her wedding, the husband left for a mission as a soldier. For three years, Su Yueya dutifully took care of her mother-in-law. Just as she finally waited for her husband to be promot...
Liu Dekai kept calculating the time in his mind. When the five days were up, he rushed to the medical department. This time, he first checked the list of doctors on duty posted at the door and confirmed that Su Yueya's name was on it.
"Su Yueya!"
Su Yueya was startled. It was only the first day back at work. Was Liu Dekai going to cause trouble for her?
The others in the medical department were used to it, since Liu Dekai had come to see them many times before, and everyone knew he would definitely come again.
"I've contacted you several times, saying I asked you to inquire about something and I want to ask you," Xu Luxin explained simply.
Su Yueya was even more puzzled.
Ask her to inquire about something?
Others may not know, but she knows very well that given their current relationship, such a thing would not happen. So why did Liu Dekai approach her?
"What do you want?" Su Yueya asked calmly, but she was always on guard against Liu Dekai.
“Hmm,” Liu Dekai nodded, his face serious. He then looked at the other doctors around him and whispered, “Yueya, can we… can we go inside and talk? In your office?”
His expression even carried a hint of pleading amidst his urgency.
He was really embarrassed to discuss the next topic in front of so many doctors, and he was also afraid that the matter would get out.
Su Yueya: "..."
Should I discuss this separately?
But if Liu Dekai suddenly went crazy, she would be at a great disadvantage and in danger in a private space. Su Yueya subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at Liu Dekai, it seemed that something really was wrong.
“Okay,” Su Yueya said, letting Liu Dekai into the consultation room, but not letting him close the door.
In this way, even if Liu Dekai goes crazy, she can run out immediately or loudly notify other doctors.
The two sat down facing each other in the consultation room.
"What exactly is it? Can you tell me now?" Su Yueya asked, genuinely unable to guess Liu Dekai's intentions.
"Crescent Moon, you said back then that Xiao Rui was a super hero, was it really true?" Liu Dekai didn't hide anything and got straight to the point in one sentence.
He stared intently at Su Yueya, desperately wanting to get an answer from her.
Moreover, it should be the answer he wants.
Su Yueya: "..."
She felt she had nothing to say.
So all that she said back then was for nothing? Even now, I still think she was talking nonsense and maliciously cursing their child.
If that's the case, what's the point of coming to ask her about this now?
Besides, even if you think she's lying, at least two things that Su Yueya heard and saw—the restaurant farce and the firecrackers—are enough to prove that she wasn't lying.
"What exactly do you want to ask?" Su Yueya asked back.
Liu Dekai paused for a moment, then emphasized, "I just want to ask you about Chaoxiong. You said Xiaorui is Chaoxiong, do you have any evidence? This is very important to me!"
To Su Yueya's surprise, Liu Dekai did not go crazy or lose his temper; instead, he continued to speak normally.
She understood.
"Liu Dekai, is your child Chaoxiong or not...? Come to think of it, he should be about a year old now, and he's already showing some characteristics. Do you still need to ask me?"
"Didn't you say before that you went to the bookstore to look up information about this, so you thought your child was a super-male?"
Su Yueya did not answer directly, but instead threw the question back at Liu Dekai.
Isn't this another kind of answer?
Because Su Yueya knew very well what Liu Dekai's problem was. It wasn't that he didn't know the answer, but that he was unwilling to believe the answer in his heart, and even hoped to hear a denial from her.
It's just self-deception.
But Su Yueya would never sympathize with Liu Dekai.
If only I had known then what I know now, I wouldn't have done it in the first place.
Didn't she remind Liu Dekai?
Liu Shengrui's tragedy can be said to be directly caused by Liu Dekai and Mo Youyou, so isn't it unfair that they are now bearing the consequences of their choices?
Whose fault is it?
Seeing Su Yueya's calm yet slightly sarcastic gaze, Liu Dekai felt a chill run down his spine.
Liu Dekai: "..."
It's over.
His worst fears came true.
"Then... Chaoxiong needs treatment?" Looking at Su Yueya again, Liu Dekai's eyes rekindled with hope. He would no longer run away; surely he could face it and find a way to treat his child? "Yueya, do you have a way?"
Su Yueya completely understood Liu Dekai's feelings at this moment, because she was also a mother now and knew the deep love parents had for their children.
But some things cannot be overcome by love alone.
For example, diseases derived from genes.
Su Yueya shook her head and calmly explained, "Supermale is a genetic disease. Things determined by genes cannot be cured."
In short, it was as if a death sentence had been handed down to Liu Shengrui, Liu Dekai, and even the Liu family.
"How could that be?!" Liu Dekai exclaimed in disbelief.
Whether you dare not believe it or are unwilling to believe it, the result is the same.
“Other doctors couldn’t find out that my son is a breech baby, but you knew he was a breech baby from the time Youyou was pregnant. Since you were able to find out, you must have a way, you must have a way, right, Crescent Moon?!” Liu Dekai had never been so humble before.
But for his son's chance of survival, and for the future of the Liu family, Liu Dekai was willing to do it.
He can beg Su Yueya, that's fine with me!
"Please help me, please help me!"
"Crescent Moon, whatever our past grievances may have, I beg you, I'll do whatever you want for me to atone for my sins, but please help Xiao Rui. He's still a child, his life can't be ruined because of this illness!"
Liu Dekai's words were sincere, and anyone who read them would agree that he was a good father.
But Su Yueya will not be fooled.
She knew perfectly well that the reason Liu Dekai said those words to her was simply because he was afraid that Chao Xiong's power was too great and would become a stumbling block on his path to promotion!
Besides, she's not a god; where would she find a way to treat this incurable disease?
“Liu Dekai, this has nothing to do with personal grudges. If I wouldn’t treat him because of grudges, I would never have told you in the first place.”
"There's no way, there's no way. I'm not a god, I don't have supernatural powers. I really can't cure Chaoxiong."
"Since you've done your research, you should know I'm not lying. Just accept reality."
Su Yueya felt that she had said everything she needed to say.
Liu Dekai panicked immediately.
He certainly knew.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so uneasy about this matter, even resorting to self-deception.
"So, what kind of person might Xiao Rui become in the future?"
Like a lonely drowning man adrift on a boundless sea, Liu Dekai was desperate to grab onto any possible piece of driftwood in order to increase his chances of survival.
