After finishing her meal, Ning Qing continued to lie on the bed and let the salted fish air dry.
Waiting for his wife to arrive.
Amid Ning Qing's expectant gaze, Bai Hao slowly pushed open the door.
Hearing the doorknob turn, Ning Qing instantly got into character.
When Bai Hao pushed open the door and walked in, this was the scene he saw.
Ning Qing lay on the bed, her eyes vacant, staring blankly at the white ceiling above.
His face was expressionless, as wooden and lifeless as a puppet.
Bai Hao frowned slightly when he saw his older brother like this.
Thinking back over the past few years, my aunt has been quite good to me.
Looking at the person on the bed.
Bai Hao thought that his mother had treated him fairly well.
Since my mother passed away, my aunt has taken good care of me.
Now, I see a lifeless person in bed.
Bai Hao thought to himself: Auntie will be heartbroken to see my brother like this, right?
I don't want to see my aunt sad and upset.
Bai Hao slowly walked closer to the bed and called out softly.
"Brother Qing".
Ning Qing heard his wife call out "Brother Qing" again.
She was absolutely against it; she didn't want to be Qing-ge's wife!
Seeing that the person on the bed did not react at all, immersed in their own world.
Bai Hao pursed his lips, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Finally, as if he had made up his mind, the man gazed at Ning Qing lying on the bed.
"Qing-ge, please don't keep being so downcast. Your aunt will be heartbroken."
Upon hearing this, Ning Qing's gaze shifted, and she turned to look at him standing by the bed.
She asked softly.
"Are you worried about me too?"
Bai Hao pursed his lips, and after a moment he slowly nodded.
"Of course, it's not just me, it's also Auntie. We all want you to be happy."
Ning Qing feigned sadness, looking down slowly at her own legs, which were covered by a thin blanket.
"How can I be happy like this?"
Bai Hao wasn't good at comforting people, so he remained silent for a moment before offering his words of comfort.
"With the increasing maturity of medical technology both domestically and internationally, I believe that one day your leg will be healed."
Ning Qing's expression grew increasingly dejected, and she gave a faint smile.
"But top experts both at home and abroad have been helpless with my legs. Will that day really come?"
Bai Hao nodded.
"You must believe that one day a medical miracle will happen to you, and don't lose heart."
Ning Qing continued to stare forlornly at her legs without replying.
Seeing that Ning Qing ignored him and continued to immerse himself in his sorrowful and lonely mood, Bai Hao realized that Ning Qing was not paying attention to him.
"Don't worry, I've heard there are some ancient, reclusive medical families in the country. Maybe they can cure you."
"I will do everything I can to help you find them."
After a moment of silence, he cleared away his plate, turned and left.
The instant he turned around, Ning Qing's gaze was fixed on him.
They chased after his tall, straight back.
Only after they disappeared from sight did he slowly withdraw his gaze.
Ning Qing figured that since dinner was over, his wife had no reason to come over anymore.
Then he gently closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Now, she is finally enjoying the happiness of being a lazy bum.
But at this moment, she couldn't feel happy at all.
Life without my wife's sweet hugs and kisses is just unbearable.
Thinking of this, Ning Qing just wanted to close her eyes and fall asleep, waiting for the next time she opened them.
A new world has begun, and I can once again cuddle with my wife.
