The world treats me like a blade of grass, only you see me as verdant mountains!
Her lonely helplessness, only he felt pity for her; his confusion and hesitation, only she understood him. Eve...

"Alright, it's all my fault for getting you injured today. I'll definitely thank you properly another day." After bandaging her wound, Lin Tingfeng looked up and smiled at Ye Wenyu.
Ye Wenyu raised her hand, which was bound into a white bear paw shape, and asked Lin Tingfeng playfully, "Am I the first person you've ever taken care of?"
Lin Tingfeng looked at the hand bandaged into a giant bear paw and couldn't help but laugh. He covered his face with his hand and said to her, "That's right, you guessed it. I'll have to practice more in the future."
"If I'm covered in injuries, you'll definitely wrap me up like a mummy."
"Haha, haha." Lin Tingfeng was amused by her. He was usually very serious, but he couldn't help but burst into laughter in the hospital corridor.
"Even if you're a mummy, I still like you very much." He said this as sincerely as a young man.
It's touching.
Ye Wenyu smiled, untied the gauze herself, and re-bandaged herself.
Lin Tingfeng was like a diligent elementary school student, always learning from the sidelines.
At this moment, Lin Tingfeng's mother walked out of the doctor's office with a smile, and the expert also walked out of the office.
Ye Wenyu and Lin Tingfeng stood up.
Zhang Xiaohong laughed and said, "I told you that this is a clinical cure and that it won't recur, but you still didn't believe me. Dr. Li, you can talk to my son about it."
Dr. Li looked at Lin Tingfeng and Ye Wenyu and smiled, "Okay, that's how it is. We've examined your mother's body, and all her indicators are normal. Don't worry."
Lin Tingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Dr. Li looked at Ye Wenyu standing beside Lin Tingfeng and smiled at Zhang Xiaohong, "This must be your daughter-in-law. She's so filial!" A daughter-in-law who accompanies her mother-in-law to see a doctor is certainly very filial, and such daughters-in-law are very rare these days.
Ye Wenyu's face immediately turned red.
Lin Tingfeng smiled; he really liked this misunderstanding, and it warmed his heart. Zhang Xiaohong glanced at Ye Wenyu and smiled slightly as well.
The three of them took a car back. It was already dark outside, the night as black as ink. Lin Tingfeng dropped Ye Wenyu off first. After Ye Wenyu got out of the car, only Lin Tingfeng and his mother remained inside.
Zhang Xiaohong, who had been silent all along, suddenly said, "This girl is a good person. I used to be against you dating her, but now it seems that I was wrong to judge her character."
Hearing his mother praise Xiaoyu warmed Lin Tingfeng's heart, as if he were nestled in a winter fireplace. His face lit up with joy, and he said happily, "Xiaoyu is of course a good girl. I knew that from the beginning."
Zhang Xiaohong sighed and said to him, "Now that you're divorced, being alone isn't a long-term solution. When I was young, you took care of me, so now it's even less likely that I'll take care of you. I'm the one who's dragging you down."
Zhang Xiaohong's tone was full of guilt. She was an incompetent mother. When her son was five or six years old, she suffered a mental breakdown. Not only could she not earn money to support her son, but she would also have mental breakdowns from time to time, and would try to kill her son with a knife.
"Mom, don't say that. I'm happy as long as you're by my side and healthy."
Lin Tingfeng immediately comforted his mother.
Zhang Xiaohong's eyes reddened and her nose tingled. She composed herself before continuing, "If you really like that girl, and she likes you back, then marry her."
Lin Tingfeng paused for a moment, then said, "I would like to marry her, but the problem is I'm not the same person I used to be. I might lose the inheritance battle, Mom—"
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohong sighed and stopped talking, remembering that two-thirds of the Lin Group's ownership was now in the hands of that woman, Zhang Yingzi.
The air suddenly became heavy, as if a huge boulder was pressing on their hearts.
Ye Wenyu returned to her dormitory. The room was deserted. With graduation approaching, the dormitory was mostly empty.
The next day, she saw that many of her classmates had found satisfactory jobs and were looking forward to their new lives. Some of them had successfully passed the postgraduate entrance examination and were going to further their studies, while others had found their ideal jobs and reported to their companies. The dormitory was empty, with only her left.
She, on the other hand, was caught between two unresolved issues.
She thought that in this life, no matter what, she couldn't be as idle and dejected as she was in her previous life.
Before making a decision, she planned to visit her mother and remind her that this life was different from the previous one, at least her mother was still alive.
So in her life, she may seem to have done nothing, but in reality, she did many important things.
She should pull herself together.
With this in mind, Ye Wenyu boarded a bus to visit her mother. Before that, she made a phone call to her mother.
Zhang Susu was naturally overjoyed at her daughter's arrival. As soon as she received the call, she began cleaning the room, buying fruit and snacks, and preparing tea; her smile never stopped.
Half an hour later, Ye Wenyu arrived at her mother's new home.
It happened to be the weekend, and her stepfather was home, so when Ye Wenyu arrived at the house, the two elderly people were waiting for her.
Although the house was simple, it was very clean. On the coffee table was a pot of azaleas in full bloom, bright red and extremely beautiful.
There were several hand-sewn cushions on the fabric sofa. They looked incredibly cute and cozy.
As she walked into the house carrying fruit and flowers, her mother and stepfather stood there smiling to greet her. For some reason, upon seeing this scene, Ye Wenyu suddenly felt a lump in her throat, her eyes reddened, and she almost burst into tears.
It's really different, it's really different now.
The most important thing in this life is that they are all still alive and healthy.
Having lived two lives, Ye Wenyu realized that the most important thing in the world is for a family to be together and live healthily; all the wealth in the world is not as good as health.
When Zhang Susu saw her daughter about to cry, she was taken aback. She smiled, took a step forward, held her daughter's hand tightly, and said to her, "What's wrong? Do you miss your mother? You came home perfectly fine, why are you crying?"
Ye Wenyu was crying like a rabbit, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls, without stopping.
Zhang Susu felt sorry for her daughter, so she simply hugged her now-grown daughter tightly in her arms, just like when she was a child.
Nestled in her mother's warm embrace, Ye Wenyu immediately wiped her eyes, forced a smile, and said, "Mom, seeing you and Uncle Wang so loving makes me so happy—"
Ye Wenyu straightened up from Zhang Susu's embrace.
"Oh dear, child, your Uncle Wang and I are an old married couple—" Zhang Susu was a little embarrassed by her daughter's words, and gently tapped her daughter's back with a fist.
Uncle Wang smiled happily, his old face flushed, but it was clear that he was very pleased.
Ye Wenyu looked at her mother, then at Uncle Wang. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, like a jumbled mess of feelings. In this life, her mother was still alive and well, not pushed off the roof, and her stepfather, Uncle Wang, was also living happily, not becoming depressed because of her mother's passing.
