The end of the year is approaching again.
Qin Yue had previously agreed with Lu Yanci that she would spend every New Year with her parents.
Lu Yanci naturally had no objections.
After having a family reunion dinner at the Lu family's house, he immediately had his driver take him to the Qin family's house for another family reunion dinner.
Last year, the two strolled along the busiest street after dinner, and they did the same this year.
The difference is that they are both a year older, and they have gone from being unmarried to being married. Now, a pair of rings have appeared on their previously bare ring fingers.
They can do this every year from now on, but some people will never see another New Year.
There will be another busy period after the New Year.
In early April, "Lingzhu Mountain" was released.
The plot has no major flaws.
The only thing that takes you out of the story is probably the male lead.
The emotions are disconnected.
One second you're marveling at his acting skills, and the next he'll deliver an awkward performance. Even the most devoted viewers will be completely worn down by this constant back and forth.
You can't praise the male lead, but you can always praise the female lead, right?
The show's performance was still far superior to other shows of the same period.
After the scores were released, the scores were average. It could be said that if Qin Xu hadn't been daydreaming while acting, the score would have been at least two points higher.
Qin Xu, an ordinary person, has been criticized by netizens, but those abusive comments are quickly refuted. His once-dormant fans are very active online, speaking up for Qin Xu. Now that he is lying in the hospital, his life hanging by a thread, anyone with a conscience would not say such things.
When she returned to the Qin family home over the weekend, she casually asked Qin Xu a question.
Qin's mother shook her head and sighed: "We went to the hospital again yesterday and completed the admission procedures. I reckon I'll be staying here for a long time this time. I'm planning to go there this afternoon. Do you want to come with me?"
There are no better treatment options available for his condition.
For Qin Xu, the hospital had become his second home, and he was only staying there to keep his life afloat with medication.
"Tomorrow, I'll go with Yan Ci tomorrow."
"That's fine then." Qin's mother breathed a sigh of relief, then asked casually, "Yan Ci is getting on in years, when are you planning to have children?"
Qin Yue sighed helplessly, "...He's not in a hurry."
"If you're not in a hurry, just wait a bit longer. I was just asking casually if you had any plans in that regard. Don't put pressure on yourselves."
"Yes, I know. Let nature take its course when it comes to children."
Qin Yue and Lu Yanci went to the hospital together.
Qin Xu now has difficulty even getting out of bed, and is completely different from before.
When he saw Qin Yue, a glimmer of light appeared in his gray eyes. He spoke to her about everyday things, but Qin Yue didn't respond. He continued talking to himself.
If you get tired, lie down and rest for a while.
Qin Yue had peeled most of the apple in her hand.
"Sister, you don't need to peel it anymore. The doctor said I can't eat this." His hoarse voice was very soft.
Qin Yue continued peeling the apple without stopping. After she finished, she handed the apple to Lu Yanci without even glancing at him.
A hint of sadness flashed in Qin Xu's eyes, and he changed the subject.
From beginning to end, Qin Yue showed no intention of responding.
After Lu Yanci finished eating the apple in his hand, Qin Yue got up, glanced at the emaciated person on the hospital bed, and said indifferently, "My mother said that you made a will, and all your property will be transferred to my name after your death. I came here today to talk about this. I will not take your money, and the Qin family will not covet a single penny. After you die, I will help you donate all your property to people in need. It is up to you to contribute to society. It can be considered that you died in a worthy place and died in peace."
He initially said he wasn't afraid of death, that maybe he could return to another world after he died, but after staying in this world for almost a year, he was somewhat unsure whether he could go back.
He felt fear when faced with death.
But death does not disappear because of his panic.
He knows his own body.
This time, his days were truly numbered; perhaps this would be the last time he would see her.
He had nothing but some savings, and that was all he could do for her. He considered it compensation for her in the other world, and also a way to leave in peace.
His large, empty eyes looked at her: "I am for you."
Her eyelids were lowered, her calm and unwavering gaze fixed on the person on the hospital bed, devoid of any pity. She curled the corners of her lips and said sarcastically, "Does that mean I have to accept what you give me?"
He gave a bitter smile and said with difficulty, "That's not what I meant, I just..."
Qin Xu didn't know what to say.
He just wanted to give her everything he had.
I just wanted to hear her say a word of forgiveness.
"Qin Xu, I came to see you because I didn't want my mother to be unhappy, not because I pity you. I hope you know that we can't even be considered friends."
Qin Xu saw the fleeting disgust in her eyes, and his heart ached as if it had been stabbed. For a moment, he felt it was difficult to breathe. He clutched the front of his shirt with one hand and bent over to breathe heavily.
Why is she so cruel to herself?
The wrongdoings committed by this body are clearly forgivable?
Watching her and Lu Yanci walk away hand in hand, he suddenly realized something and shouted with all his might, "Sister."
Qin Yue stopped.
He stared intently at her retreating figure, his eyes filled with fear and despair, his lips moving as if seeking confirmation: "It's you who's back, isn't it?"
He had never considered this possibility.
But it's not impossible.
He was certain he had seen her before he arrived. If he could come, why couldn't she have come to this place?
Or perhaps, she came into this world even earlier than I did...
