The summer night breeze, both noisy and silent.
The old locust tree outside the house blooms and withers.
It's still the same old dining table; we flee and then sit around it again...
Soft, relaxing music played in the coffee shop.
Outside the window, the sky was ablaze with red clouds, and the setting sun outlined its silhouette.
Just like the lyrics describe, the two people by the window have been silent for a long time.
Even the piping hot coffee turned cold in silence.
The woman finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, forcing a slight smile, "What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Yu Mobai glanced at the woman and said, "Why don't you tell me something sad to cheer me up?"
Then he picked up his coffee and took a sip. "Don't hold it in. Shouldn't you be laughing out loud at a time like this?"
"Then I won't be polite."
Dong Yike finally gave up on managing her expression and laughed without caring about her image, "It's okay, little Baibai, if all else fails, you can just stay with me."
Yu Mobai glanced at her "assets" and laughed heartily, "No way."
"Damn! I can breastfeed two kids and it's not big enough for you?"
Dong Yike slammed her hand on the table, instantly attracting the attention of everyone around her.
But she ignored it all, rolled up her sleeves, turned her head, and said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a couple arguing before?"
Several onlookers turned their attention away after her shout, but they couldn't help but whisper and point behind her back.
"Shout louder, let them know you can breastfeed three children."
Yu Mobai grinned; she'd always been like this since he'd met her.
"You're still counting it out..."
As soon as Dong Yike opened her mouth, she saw Yu Mobai's gaze sweep over her and immediately softened. "Little Baibai, you're divorced, why can't you accept me? Although I'm a bit rough around the edges, that's just my personality. Actually, I'm fair-skinned, beautiful, have long legs, big breasts, and I can talk back to anyone."
He had to admit that there was a grain of truth to that statement.
Dong Yike is indeed very beautiful, that is an indisputable fact.
Beneath a head of long, red, wavy hair was a captivating oval face.
Her fair and flawless skin had a faint rosy glow, and her thin lips were as delicate and luscious as rose petals.
Her peach blossom eyes seemed to hold a shimmering blue, and her curved willow eyebrows and long eyelashes trembled slightly.
Her light, fine, silvery hair floated gently; she tucked it behind her ears, her brows slightly furrowed.
In short, this person is great in every way, but unfortunately, they have a mouth.
As for the remaining half of the truth, he hasn't experienced it yet, so he can't speak recklessly.
"Say something!"
Dong Yike gulped down a cup of coffee in one go, and even took a sip from the hair on her forehead, secretly dabbing a little onto her face.
"Pay attention to your image, no wonder nobody wants you."
Yu Mobai handed her some tissues to wipe her mouth and said calmly, "I went to the hospital yesterday morning."
"Where have you been?"
Dong Yike's eyes widened, and she said with a grin, "You didn't get divorced because you're impotent, did you? Then I'll have to think about it carefully."
"Once a night, one night at a time."
Yu Mobai took a deep breath; his conversations with her always inexplicably went off-topic.
Wow, that's awesome!
Dong Yike raised her delicate eyebrows.
"Late-stage cancer."
Yu Mobai steered the conversation directly, "There's about six months left."
"...."
Dong Yike's smile froze on her face. She forced a smile and said, "Stop joking around, do you have terminal cancer?"
"real."
Yu Mobai accepted the result calmly. "I went for a check-up yesterday, the results came out this morning, and we got divorced at noon."
Tears welled up in Dong Yike's eyes and she stared at him quietly for a long time.
Then he suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go."
"Xiao Ke, don't go, there's no need."
Yu Mobai thought she wanted to go to her ex-wife to demand an explanation, so he stopped her in time.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go, let's go to your house!"
Dong Yike said.
Yu Mobai was taken aback for a moment, "Are you that thirsty?"
"Don't even think about it! Go get your household registration book and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau! There are only six months left, let me experience the sweetness of love too!"
"....."
Yu Mobai refused.
Despite the commotion, he doesn't have much time left to live. Why should she be labeled as "widowed"? It's unfair to her.
Moreover, he got divorced simply because he wanted to finish this final chapter of his life on his own.
"You have no right to refuse. If you don't leave, I'll carry you away!"
...
As they left the Civil Affairs Bureau, Dong Yike nestled against him like a little bird, her face beaming with smiles. "Honey, don't worry, I'll definitely see you off on your final journey."
Yu Mobai twitched the corner of his mouth. "I want to live until the day I die."
That night, the two of them stayed together.
In Dong Yike's words, after 27 years of dedicated study, her skills finally came in handy.
After that, the two of them began their honeymoon trip.
They crossed the Atlantic Ocean and climbed Mount Everest.
I experienced exotic scenery and tasted delicacies from all over the world.
More than four months later, Yu Mobai's health deteriorated so much that he had to be hospitalized for treatment.
...
The hospital corridor was filled with the smell of formaldehyde.
Late at night, a beautiful figure sat on a chair in the corridor, burying her face in her arms and crying silently.
She seemed very tired, staring blankly at the ground until she heard coughing coming from the ward. She then hastily wiped her face, got up, and ran inside.
