Lin Chaodong and Lin Chaonan were digging for medicinal herbs on the mountain, so they didn't know that Lin Chaobei had an accident. Someone saw them still digging for herbs on the mountain and ran to tell them that Lin Chaobei was in trouble. The two brothers immediately threw down their hoes and ran down the mountain. Before the person could finish speaking, they had already disappeared.
Liu wanted to go along, but this time the man stopped her and told her to stay home and prepare.
As for what to prepare, that goes without saying.
Liu didn't know what to prepare, as she had never handled such a matter before. She simply took out the least patched clothes that Lin Chaodong had worn when he got married, boiled a pot of water, and then waited anxiously with Xiaoman in her arms.
Fortunately, Lin Chaobei lived up to expectations, preventing Liu Shi from using the things she had prepared and also preventing Yue Jiuyue from having to bury her son.
Watching someone suddenly lose their breath, their warm body turning cold and stiff—that despair and fear is something no one who has experienced it ever wants to go through again.
Yue Jiuyue felt as if she had experienced it all over again. Despair and fear gripped her. She dared not be alone, nor did she dare to close her eyes, for if she did, she would see people lying in pools of blood.
That night, Lin Chaodong and Lin Chaonan stayed with her and kept watch over Lin Chaobei.
At night, Lin Chaodong and Lin Chaonan fell asleep from exhaustion after clearing the land. Yue Jiuyue leaned against the wall, looking at the moonlight outside, her mind filled with things she didn't want to think about: blood, wailing, cursing...
She didn't want to think about it, but she couldn't control herself.
"Um……"
A soft hum, barely audible, pulled Yue Jiuyue out of her memories.
Yue Jiuyue quickly stood up, walked to the bedside, bent down, and tried hard to see if the person lying on the bed had opened their eyes.
"Chaobei? You're awake?"
Yue Jiuyue received no answer, but woke up the other two sleeping people.
"Mother, has the fourth son woken up?"
The two brothers asked eagerly, yet with great surprise.
Yue Jiuyue shook her head.
"No, I just heard him groan, he must have felt pain."
"You're groaning in pain, are you about to wake up?"
"Fourth brother? Can you hear me?"
The two brothers were somewhat disappointed, as Lin Chaobei showed no reaction whatsoever.
"Mother, we'll be here to watch over Fourth Brother. You should go back inside and get some sleep. It's getting chilly upstairs, so don't catch a cold."
"Yes, Mother, you should go back to your room and get some sleep. If Fourth Brother wakes up, I'll go and wake you."
The two brothers turned around and tried to persuade Yue Jiuyue again.
Yue Jiuyue didn't agree. She didn't even dare to say anything to them. They were so tired that they snored loudly when they fell asleep. They didn't even know that Lin Chaobei was groaning in pain. How could they possibly sense him when he woke up?
"Don't try to persuade me anymore. Even if I go back now, I won't be able to sleep. Once he wakes up, I'll be relieved and won't need your persuasion to go back to sleep."
She wanted to see Lin Chaobei wake up with her own eyes; she wanted to witness a "miracle" firsthand.
The two brothers stopped trying to persuade him, but they also stopped trying to sleep. They stared at Lin Chaobei with wide eyes, afraid that they might miss his little movements if they looked away.
"oh!"
A scream escaped, weak and powerless.
Lin Chaobei had just groggily opened his eyes when he found three dark shadows in his room. Thinking they were ghosts, he immediately screamed.
As a result, due to her physical weakness, the scream was even softer than that of a newborn kitten.
