The woman sat down tactfully and pointed to the bench by the window. "It's not convenient here. Please bring yourselves a bench and sit down."
"Just take care of yourself and the children." After Zhong Yuxiu finished speaking, Yan Rushan strode over to bring a stool and asked everyone to sit on it. After everyone was seated, Wan Yuning's wife breathed a sigh of relief. She was really tired of holding on like this. No branch of the Wan family would come to help; and her parents were unlikely to come.
In this era, favoring boys over girls is the norm, and no one thinks it is wrong; this is a social phenomenon that will gradually become clear and change after several decades.
"I'm so sorry that I can't even bring you a stool now that you're here."
"I told you it's okay. The situation is different. You're tired enough. Has Wan Yuning been relying entirely on nutrient solution to survive during this period? Can't he eat anything at all?" In order to avoid any more awkward pleasantries, Yuxiu took the initiative to change the subject.
The woman nodded, the worry between her brows becoming more and more obvious. "Not only can he not eat, but now he throws up if he smells anything greasy. The doctor comes to prescribe nutritional supplements every day, and he relies on these nutritional supplements to survive. How can a healthy person live well on nutritional supplements? He's even lost weight."
Zhong Yuxiu took a look at the person on the hospital bed. He had indeed lost weight, and not just a little bit. Wan Yuning was now so thin that only a skeleton was left, skin and bones.
“What do the doctors and experts say?”
"The doctors are helpless. Several waves of experts have come, but none of them could get Yu Ning to eat. He also vomits after taking the repair fluid. One Chinese medicine expert even said that Yu Ning refused to eat for psychological reasons. I can't persuade him, the knot in his heart can't be untied, and he just can't eat." The woman felt helpless.
Zhong Yuxiu did not express her opinion, but stood up and walked to Wan Yuning's bedside, held Wan Yuning's wrist and began to take his pulse.
Seeing this, the woman felt relieved and looked at her expectantly, hoping she could find a cure. Before they got married, she had heard that Wan Yuning had an adopted sister. She knew about this person, and she had even made inquiries through various channels. All she knew was that she had worked at this hospital and was a skilled doctor. As for anything else, she had no idea where she lived or where she was currently employed.
Judging from these aspects, she has guessed that her identity is not ordinary; if she can become a national protected talent by virtue of her medical skills, she cannot be a simple person.
It is no exaggeration to say that all her hopes are placed on Zhong Yuxiu.
Seeing her put down her hand, the woman asked anxiously, "Yuxiu, how is Yuning? Is there really no hope?"
Zhong Yuxiu turned around and looked at her deeply, but did not answer immediately; the woman was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead, her heart beat faster, and her hands holding the child were shaking.
"There is hope, as long as he can eat." He was not lying to her. As long as he could eat the repair fluid, there would be hope of recovery.
The woman took a deep breath and managed to calm herself down. "But he can't eat! He throws up as soon as he eats. Now it's hard for him to even go to the bathroom."
"Well, let's wait until he wakes up."
Zhong Yuxiu had already said this, so the woman didn't want to ask any more questions and sat down on the stool with the child in her arms. She was anxious and didn't know what topic to start with, and neither Zhong Yuxiu nor Yan Rushan made any move to speak.
The ward fell into silence.
After an unknown amount of time, the person on the hospital bed moved. Wan Yuning's wife and Zhong Yuxiu noticed it first. They both stood up and looked over. Wan Yuning's wife even walked over with the child in her arms.
Wan Yuning opened his eyes and the first people he saw were his wife and daughter. He spoke weakly.
"Why did you bring the child here again?"
"I'm worried about leaving you at home. Do you want to eat something? I'll ask the nurse to buy some for you. You can't go without food or drink like this. For me and the child, you have to eat something no matter how much you cry or how difficult it is, okay?" The woman's eyes were red with pain.
Wan Yuning smiled bitterly. It wasn't that he didn't want to eat! He really couldn't eat. He felt like vomiting at the sight of it. He even felt nauseous after eating a little.
"I know you're feeling bad too, but the longer you don't eat, the worse you feel!" Wan Yuning's wife kept saying, "Oh, Yuxiu and her boyfriend are here. Didn't you want to see Yuxiu? Here she is."
Wan Yuning's wife made way for him. When Wan Yuning saw Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan, his lips trembled with excitement. Then, he grabbed the mattress on both sides of the bed and tried to get up, but he had no strength left as he had not eaten or drunk anything, and he was unable to get up.
"Yuxiu..." Wan Yuning tried to smile, "You're here, come and sit down."
Wan Yuning is rarely seen like this. Even if he felt guilty before, he had never been like this.
Zhong Yuxiu said, "No need to sit down, we'll leave soon. Are you really unable to eat now? Or do you just feel that you can't eat?"
Wan Yuning didn't know how to answer for a moment. He just felt that he couldn't eat, and he really couldn't eat.
"If you feel like you can't eat and don't want to eat, I can help you. If you really can't eat, I can also help you."
Wan Yuning didn't say anything.
Wan Yuning's wife seemed to see hope and stared at her. "Yuxiu, can you really help him eat? He really can't hold on any longer. My child and I need him very much. I don't want my child to ask me when he grows up, 'Mom, where's Dad? Where did Dad go? Why don't I have a dad? Does Daddy not want me anymore?'"
"I want my child to have a complete life. I also want him to be alive with me, even if I go first!" Wan Yuning's wife's eyes are full of affection. She is a woman who really wants to spend her life with Wan Yuning.
"Amin, don't say anything, stomach cancer is incurable." Wan Yuning stared at her in great discomfort, tears filling his eyes involuntarily.
Qu Min glanced at him and nearly collapsed, tears streaming down her cheeks. "What can't be cured? The experts said it's because you don't want to eat. You don't want to eat, you just can't eat, you feel like you're hopeless."
"Can you think about me and the child? You can be cured. Neither the child nor I have given up on you, so what right do you have to give up on yourself?"
"We've been married for less than a year and already have a child. It's easy for you to just leave like that. But what about me and my child? Who can I marry to make her happy? If she follows me, she'll have a stepfather. Will she be happy? Will the stepfather really treat her well? Can I accept that?"
"Can't you give yourself a little confidence? What if you are cured? What if your body is well? Can you accompany my child for decades?"
"Could the current situation be any worse? You also said that Yuxiu is very capable and has excellent medical skills. If you don't trust yourself, shouldn't you trust Yuxiu?"
Wan Yuning shook his head, still thinking that he couldn't eat anything.
