When I woke up again, it felt like I had just woken up from a dream, as if I had been in another world.
Lin Jingyue blinked, feeling somewhat dazed and confused. She couldn't remember what she had dreamed about yesterday, only a dull ache in her heart.
"Honey, where did my striped tie go? I can't find it." Li Muyun's voice rang out in the living room.
With a dark expression, she picked up her tie from the recliner beside her and walked out.
"I told you to pick up your things yesterday, but you wouldn't listen. Now you can't find anything and you come asking me. Do you believe I'll beat you up and teach you a lesson?"
Li Muyun took the tie, chuckled twice, leaned in, and gave her a hard kiss on the cheek.
"I just wanted my wife to tie my tie for me, it's not like I can't find anyone else. Help me tie my tie, I have to go to work later."
Lin Jingyue was a little annoyed by his clingy nature. "You're such a grown man, and you still can't tie a tie. Do you expect me to tie it for you for the rest of your life?"
"Can't I?" He blinked his puppy-dog eyes, looking pitiful and a little aggrieved.
"Don't give me that." She reached out and covered his eyes without hesitation, refusing to soften her stance.
But Li Muyun simply pulled her hand down and kissed it.
"My wife's tie smells so good, mine doesn't smell as good as hers. I'm going to work now, what do you want to eat when I get back? I'll bring it to you." He asked as he put on his shoes.
"I want to eat spicy and sour chicken feet. Could you bring me a small cake when you come back? DouDou has been having a sore throat lately, could you bring him a glass of lemon water to soothe him?"
"Okay." He smiled and accepted everything, opened the door, grabbed the keys, and prepared to leave.
Lin Jingyue's brow twitched, and she suddenly said, "Honey, I'm not feeling well today... Why don't you take the subway?"
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Muyun stopped, looked at her with concern, and reached out to touch her forehead.
There was no fever, and no other problems.
"No, it's just... I just don't feel right. I'd better not drive today, I have a feeling something's going to happen."
He looked at her for a long time, and seeing that she wasn't joking, he put the keys down. "Okay, I'll do whatever my wife says. I'll take the subway today. I just hope the little cake won't get squashed on the way back."
"Hmph! People's safety is the most important thing. Don't give me that. The little cake isn't allowed to be flattened. If it is, you'll flatten it too!"
"Honey, kiss me~"
Lin Jingyue leaned closer, a little embarrassed, quickly kissed him, and stepped back. "Okay, go to work now."
Li Muyun was unwilling to give up, so she pulled the person over and did oral exercises for five minutes before finally letting go.
"Wait for me to come back!"
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
Lin Jingyue's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom. They've been married for so many years, and they've been dating for even longer, and they're still so lovey-dovey. It's really unbearable.
Turning around, she saw Dou Dou standing barefoot at her bedroom door, looking at her with shining eyes.
"Mom, are you and Dad doing something naughty?"
"Cough cough!" She almost choked on her own saliva. "Kids shouldn't watch this, or they might not grow tall."
"Mom is lying. You need calcium supplements to grow taller. This way you won't stunt your growth."
As children grow older and learn more, they become harder to fool.
"Go eat your breakfast, your dad made it. I'm going back to catch up on some sleep."
"What will I do when I go to school?" Dou Dou is already in kindergarten.
"I'll call the teacher later and ask you for a day off."
"Fine." He had no choice but to accept having such a troublesome mother.
Lin Jingyue went back and took a nap, but she didn't sleep well because she had a nightmare. In the dream, her son had a terminal illness, and her husband died in a car accident a few years ago, so she had no money for living expenses.
She spent all her savings on her son's treatment, but it still wasn't enough. Her son ultimately left her, and she was powerless to save him.
When she woke up, she had forgotten the dream she had just had, and only remembered that she was in great pain.
"Mom, why are you crying?"
DouDou, who was playing with toys nearby, looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Mom is fine, Mom is going to wash her face."
After washing her face and brushing her teeth, without even eating breakfast, she took her son straight to the hospital. She didn't know why she had to go.
I went straight to the physical exam and they ordered all sorts of other tests they could find.
Finally, a very small cyst was found inside DouDou's body. It wasn't a tumor, but if it continued to develop, it might spread and eventually form a tumor.
Cancer is a very unpredictable disease. Once it spreads, it can lead to lifelong chemotherapy until death, with a very, very small chance of being cured.
As for DouDou, because it was discovered and treated early, there was nothing wrong with her.
On the way home, Lin Jingyue was still shaken. Who knew that such a small lump would eventually develop into a tumor? Moreover, the area didn't hurt or itch, and Dou Dou herself hadn't paid any attention to it; Lin Jingyue couldn't have noticed anything inside her body.
She originally intended to tell Li Muyun when she got home, but shortly after arriving home, she came across a local video on her phone.
This morning, a car accident occurred on the road Li Muyun usually travels on. The car crashed directly into a tree trunk, killing him instantly. According to the investigation by traffic police and the police force, drunk driving is a possible cause of death.
The time coincided with the time when he was driving; if he had driven then, perhaps...
Lin Jingyue couldn't help but gasp. Luckily, she had persuaded him this morning, otherwise they would have had to invite the whole village to a feast by now.
And DouDou, thankfully she's alright.
When Li Muyun returned with the small cakes, she was greeted by the very enthusiastic Lin Jingyue.
She rushed over and hugged him tightly.
Before he could say anything, he felt a dampness on his shoulder. "What's wrong, honey?"
"Waaaaah... Thank goodness you're alright, I was so scared! You have no idea how many videos I saw today of a car accident, on the very road you usually go to work. Thank goodness I told you to take the subway, otherwise... Waaaaah... I don't even want to think about it..."
Li Muyun understood that this incident might have left a shadow on her, so she freed one hand to pat her back and comfort her, "It's alright, it's alright, I'm back safely, aren't I? It's alright, it's all over now."
"I don't care, we have to be good to each other from now on, and you can't let anything happen to me!"
"Yes, wife's orders will be obeyed!"
"DouDou will listen to Mom and will be fine!" DouDou rushed over and hugged both of their legs.
Fortunately, the family is still alive and well in this world.
May we continue to be happy in the days to come!
(The End)
