Chapter 243 Ji Wuchen stood up
Chen Yubai listened quietly to Li Ruchu's voice coming from the other end of the phone. The familiar and gentle tone was like a breeze, gently brushing across the restless lake in his heart, calming the originally surging emotions and reducing his restlessness a lot.
During this period, he was tortured by both his illness and the pressure of life. Facing this little life that had just come into the world, his heart was full of helplessness and confusion.
He knew very well that given his current situation, he was unable to raise the child wholeheartedly.
"Chu Chu," Shen Yubai paused for a moment, his voice carrying a hint of caution, yet also filled with some unspeakable expectations, "Can you help me pick a name for the child?"
For some reason, deep in his heart, it seemed that by doing this, he could pass on the special feelings he had for Li Ruochu to this child, as if he could accompany the child as he grew up, just as he loved Li Ruochu.
"This is your child. Isn't it inappropriate for me to name him?" Li Ruochu frowned slightly, feeling a little confused.
She really didn't understand why Shen Yubai had such an idea. After all, naming a child is usually an extremely important and private matter for parents.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment. Shen Yubai took a deep breath and said slowly: "Chu Chu, my illness is getting better and worse, and even the doctor can't give a definite answer. I don't know how many years I can hold on. My mother is old and her health is not as good as before. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to take care of the child alone in the future. So I wonder, if something really happens to me one day, can I leave this child with you and let you help take care of it?"
Shen Yubai's voice was a little hoarse, and every word seemed to be spoken with all his strength.
He stared at the child who was sleeping soundly in his arms, his eyes full of reluctance and worry.
The birth of this new life should have brought endless joy, but at this moment, he only felt confused and helpless.
He knew very well that his life was like a candle in the wind and could be extinguished at any time, so he was eager to arrange everything for his child's future.
Li Ruochu couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in his heart as he listened to Shen Yubai's confession.
She understood Shen Yubai's worries and helplessness, and she also knew that this child was not only the continuation of Shen Yubai's bloodline, but also his last concern in this world.
After thinking for a moment, Li Ruochu said softly: "Shen Chengen. I hope he can learn to be grateful, and no matter what situation he is in in the future, he can remember the kindness and dedication of those around him."
She felt that this name was very appropriate and carried good wishes for her child.
"Thank you, Chuchu." Shen Yubai's voice trembled slightly, his heart full of gratitude.
This name seemed to give him a little comfort and let him see a glimmer of hope in the darkness.
"I'll hang up if there's nothing else!" After Li Ruochu finished speaking, he gently hung up the phone without waiting for Shen Yubai's response.
She held the phone quietly, and Shen Yubai's tired and worried face appeared in her mind.
One afternoon a few days later, the sunlight shone through the mottled leaves and onto the courtyard of Li Ruochu's house, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
Suddenly, the doorbell broke the silence.
Li Ruochu was sorting books in the house. When she heard the bell, she frowned slightly, wondering who was visiting.
She put down the book in her hand, stood up and walked towards the door.
When she opened the door, a familiar face came into view. Li Ruochu was shocked and blurted out: "Ji Wuchen!"
The last time we met in Country F, Ji Wuchen was still in a wheelchair, with great difficulty in moving, and he looked depressed and lonely.
But the man in front of me was standing at the door with an upright posture, full of energy, completely different from before. It was hard to believe that he had recovered so quickly.
"My dear sister," Ji Wuchen raised his lips slightly with a teasing smile, "You promised me that you would treat me well, why did you change another Chinese medicine doctor to treat me after you left?"
He tilted his head slightly, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"I've said it before, other people's abilities are much better than mine," Li Ruochu smiled helplessly, his eyes full of sincerity, "Why do you insist on me? But seeing that you can stand up now, I'm really happy for you from the bottom of my heart!"
As she spoke, she quickly turned sideways and enthusiastically invited Ji Wuchen to come in, and even extended her hand to make a gesture of invitation, "Come in and sit down!"
Ji Wuchen walked into the house with steady steps, looked around, and then, under the guidance of Li Ruchu, sat down on the sofa in the living room.
He gently adjusted the corner of his clothes, looked up at Li Ruochu, a hint of warmth flashed in his eyes, and said: "I came here this time to attend your wedding with Feng Yizhou!"
In fact, Ji Wuchen has been very troubled in his heart during this period. He is worried that his legs are not recovering well and he will not be able to attend the wedding as scheduled.
After all, it has always been an unknown whether his legs can truly recover.
But he really didn't want to miss this important moment, so while receiving treatment, he had been working hard on rehabilitation training. Every difficult attempt and every drop of sweat was for the opportunity to come here and witness Li Ruchu's happy moment.
"I heard that your whole family has left Country F," Ji Wuchen sighed slightly, with a trace of regret on his face, "I don't know if I will have the chance to meet you again in the future, so I must come to attend your wedding!"
His eyes were filled with sincere emotions. No matter how long they had been together, he knew in his heart that Li Ruchu had made an indispensable contribution to his ability to stand on his legs again.
If it weren't for her help and encouragement, I might still be immersed in despair.
Li Ruochu looked at Ji Wuchen, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She didn't expect Ji Wuchen to be so attentive to attend her wedding, and she was deeply moved by this friendship.
She smiled and said, "I'm really happy that you can come. It means a lot to me."
As she spoke, she poured Ji Wuchen a cup of hot tea. The hot steam rose up, as if warming up the quiet afternoon.
After Ji Wuchen finished speaking, he took out a box and handed it to Li Ruochu: "This is my gift to you!"
When Li Ruochu opened the box, he found a share transfer document inside.
"This is our Ji family's share. No matter what, you are also Ji Wuyou in Country F, so you are my sister, and this is what you deserve! If Feng Yizhou bullies you one day in the future, just come to me, our Ji family will back you up!"
Feng Yizhou stood at the door and listened to what the man said. His face suddenly became gloomy: "Why don't you guys hope that the two of us will get along well?"
