"Let go of me! I want my mom! You're not my mom! I want my mom! Mom! I want my mom!"
Nini's resistance was like a sharp knife, piercing Zhou Chunhua's heart.
The clingy little thing who used to stick to her all the time, always wanting hugs and kisses, now treats her like a stranger.
This feeling is something that people who haven't been mothers can't understand.
“Nini, it’s me, it’s me, it’s me.” Zhou Chunhua’s tears flowed again.
Countless nights, she dreamed of holding Nini like this, telling her how much she loved her, and Nini would nuzzle her with her smooth little face, just like when she was a child.
She... guessed the beginning, but she didn't expect this ending.
Suddenly, Nini started struggling like a madwoman, while Zhou Chunhua stubbornly refused to let go.
She wanted to use her warmth and her embrace to remind Nini of herself.
However, on the next side, Zhou Chunhua felt a piercing pain in her arm.
"Ni...Ni?"
Watching Nini bite her arm, her face contorted in pain, Zhou Chunhua frowned and smirked.
Bite it!
If this makes her daughter feel any better, she would not hesitate to bite her, or even have her heart ripped out.
It's just a piece of meat, what does it matter?
She clenched her teeth in pain, and gently patted Nini's back, just like she used to when Nini was little.
Her chin rested on the top of Nini's head, and her voice was gentle: "Nini, don't be afraid, Mommy is here! Mommy brought Nini into this world, so Mommy will do everything in her power to protect Nini."
The stars in the sky are silent, the children on earth miss their mothers, the eyes in the sky blink and blink, and the mother's heart is like a lupine flower...
Zhou Chunhua hummed a song that Nini used to lull her to sleep when she was little.
Tears welled in her eyes; the pain in her arm paled in comparison to the pain in her heart.
Nini was clearly in her arms, yet it felt like an entire galaxy separated the mother and daughter...
"The tea gardens in my hometown are full of flowers, my mother's heart is at the ends of the earth." Zhou Chunhua's nose tingled, and her voice trembled: "Every night I think of my mother's words, and my eyes are filled with tears."
"Nini, you still remember Mommy, right? You still remember the song Mommy sang to you when you were little, right?" She knew she wouldn't get the answer she wanted.
But she wasn't going to give up so easily.
She promised Nini that no matter where she was, she would find her and bring her home!
"Night after night, I think of my mother's words, glistening tears, like ice flowers..."
Suddenly, Nini's teeth, which were gripping her arm, loosened slightly.
Zhou Chunhua's heart skipped a beat, and a glimmer of hope returned to her bewildered eyes.
Nini remembers... Nini remembers this song!
Her Nini, remember this song that lulled her to sleep!
"The stars in the sky are silent, the children on the ground miss their mothers, the eyes in the sky blink and blink, and the mother's heart is like a lupine flower..."
As she sang softly, Nini slowly relented.
I looked up, gazed upwards, and looked at her.
Although Nini's eyes remained empty, and although the expression on Nini's face still showed fear and rejection...
"The tea gardens of my hometown are in full bloom, my mother's heart is far away, every night I think of my mother's words, tears glistening like lupine blossoms. Ah~ ah ah, ah... ah... every night I think of my mother's words..."
“Sparkling... lupine, flower.”
Zhou Chunhua's pupils dilated as she looked at Nini, who was humming along with her, and she saw a glimmer of hope for victory!
So she sang "Lupin Flower" over and over again.
Nini, nestled in my arms, first hummed along, and then, without realizing it, fell asleep.
This scene is exactly the same as when Nini was a child!
Zhou Chunhua dared not stop; she repeated the process over and over again.
She gently placed Nini back on the bed, then turned to her side and lay down next to Nini.
He was still humming the children's song he had sung countless times—"Lupin Flower."
Looking at her sleeping daughter in her arms, Zhou Chunhua also fell asleep without realizing it.
In her dream, Nini threw herself into her arms and called out, "Mommy, Mommy, Nini wants a hug."
His rosy little face rubbed against her chest.
"Okay, Mommy will hug you." She hugged the little girl tightly in her arms.
Meanwhile, outside the ward, Gu Yao leaned against the wall, confronting several nurses.
"Family member, please move aside! The patient is extremely agitated and needs to be given sedatives as soon as possible."
Gu Yao glanced at the small syringe in the nurse's hand and snorted, "Our Nini doesn't get that."
"Get out of the way! What if something happens inside? Who will be responsible?"
"Get out of the way!" Gu Yao had no interest in arguing with them.
He believed her.
What he needs to do is believe in her, support her, and help her.
So, as long as she doesn't call him in, he just needs to stay here and guard the door.
"Listen, there's no sound from inside! Has something happened? If you don't move aside, I'm calling hospital security!" the nurse said excitedly, pointing to the door.
Gu Yao scoffed.
Only he knew that Hua Hua's warm, sunny soul possessed a magic that could heal others.
He believed that with her there, Nini would definitely be able to overcome this difficulty, just like he had been.
Just as Gu Yao was reminiscing about the past, several nurses rushed up at the same time.
Gu Yao didn't stand on ceremony; he stood in front of the door and blocked the nurses from entering.
Listening to the faint singing inside, growing more and more indistinct and fainter, Gu Yao turned around and gently pushed the door open a crack.
What came into Gu Yao's view was a mother and daughter sleeping in the same bed.
Zhou Chunhua's eyes were closed, and a smile that had been absent for a long time lingered on her lips.
Nini, who was bound, lay in Zhou Chunhua's arms and slept soundly.
Behind him, he could hear the nurses' murmurs.
"My God, asleep? The patient actually fell asleep naturally without any sedatives? Am I seeing things?"
"How did she do that? When patients are manic, it's impossible for them to fall asleep on their own!"
"Go! Quickly go find Dr. Liu!"
As the footsteps of the nurses receded behind him, Gu Yao gently closed the ward door.
He knew she could do it.
With his shoulder leaning against the wall, he took advantage of the brief silence to dial Tai'an's number.
After a few rings, Tai'an's dissatisfied voice came from the other end: "Gu Yao! Are you doing this on purpose? You never call me when I'm awake, but you always call me when I've finally fallen asleep!"
"Quiet! I have something important to discuss with you," Gu Yao said briefly.
Tai'an seemed to have been put on pause, and immediately fell silent.
