"Ye Qiu finally nodded. Lu Kai, go buy vegetables with Mom!”Lu Kai's mother looked at me and smiled happily.
Lu Kai glanced at Yun Shu and felt that Yun Shu seemed to be deliberately sending him away. He said worriedly,""Iris, Mom can buy the groceries alone. I'll stay and chat with you and Ye Qiu!”
Yun Shu naturally understood Lu Kai's concerns. He shook his head and smiled."The market is still some distance away from the neighborhood, and Ye Qiu is in a hurry to return to the hospital. You can drive with Mom to save some time.”
How could Lu Kai's mother know what her son and daughter-in-law were thinking? She patted Lu Kai's shoulder and scolded him jokingly,""Iris told you to go, so what are you waiting for? Are you afraid that Mom will embarrass you?”With that, she pretended to be angry and turned around to change her shoes.
"Hurry up and go!" Yun Shu saw that his mother-in-law seemed angry and hurriedly pushed Lu Kai.
Lu Kai looked at Yun Shu and said worriedly,""I'll be right back. Remember to finish your apple juice.”
"Got it. Hurry up and go!" Yun Shu gave Lu Kai a charming smile.
Only then did Lu Kai stand behind his mother, change his shoes, and smile.""Mom, don't be angry. Is your son that kind of person? Let's go!"
"That's more like it!" Lu Kai's mother smiled, held her son's arm, and walked out of the house.
I looked at Yun Shu, who was as thin as a stick, and my heart couldn't help but ache. For a moment, I didn't know what to say to her.
"Ye Qiu, thank you for coming to see me!”Yun Shu put down the glass in his hand and looked at me seriously.
I shook my head uneasily. She was too polite. Although I wasn't very familiar with her in the hospital, she was Lu Kai's wife. If you love someone, you should love everything about him. I love Lu Kai, so I should naturally try to accept the woman he loves.
"Do you like Lu Kai?" Yun Shu suddenly stared into my eyes and asked such a serious question.
I hurriedly shook my head and denied it." No, we're just ordinary classmates. Don't let your imagination run wild!”I was puzzled that Yun Shu had been recuperating at home. I didn't call Lu Kai openly or ask him out to meet me. Why did Yun Shu suddenly ask this question?
Yun Shu picked up the glass on the coffee table and took a sip of apple juice. Then he smiled faintly and said,"Ye Qiu, do you know that Lu Kai loves me very much? I love Lu Kai very much too. No one can separate us, not even the Grim Reaper!”
"Of course I know, so you must live well!”In the face of Yun Shu's questioning, I actually felt guilty for a long time. However, in order not to cause trouble for Lu Kai and to let Yun Shu spend his last days happily, no matter how passionate my love for Lu Kai was, I had to work hard to suppress it. I couldn't reveal any flaws.
"Haha, live well? How could I not want to! But do you think that's possible?" Yun Shu sneered, the glass in his hand trembling.
I didn't know how to comfort her, so I had no choice but to lie to her kindly."Yunshu, don't be pessimistic. I bumped into Lu Kai at the hospital this afternoon. He said that the Hematology Department has found a bone marrow that matches your type.”
"Alright, Ye Qiu, don't lie to me. I'm not a three-year-old child. If the hospital really had a suitable bone marrow for me, Lu Kai would definitely hug me and cheer when he got home. He chose to be silent because he didn't want me to be sad. I've been with him for so many years, and no one knows him better than me.”Yun Shu exposed my lie in a low voice. His eyes seemed to be wet.
Actually, I should have known that Yun Shu wasn't that gullible, but I couldn't bear to see the despair in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you!”I lowered my head in shame.
Yun Shu gulped down the apple juice as if he wanted to use the sweetness of the juice to ease the pain in his heart. However, she was a patient. Due to the stimulation of the chemotherapy drugs and the effects of being bedridden for a long time, the function of her esophagus and trachea was not as good as that of ordinary people. When she swallowed a large mouthful of apple juice, she actually started coughing violently.
"Yunshu!" I saw Yun Shu's pale face and purple lips. I couldn't help but scream and quickly patted her bony back.
After three to five seconds, Yun Shu finally caught his breath, but her face was still pale and pale. She looked exactly like a dying patient in the emergency room. If this was a hospital, I would have given her oxygen immediately. However, all I could do now was pour her a cup of hot water and carefully feed her.
Yun Shu took a few sips of hot water, and the bruises on her lips and face slowly disappeared. She smiled and held my hand."Ye Qiu, you're the best!"
"You scared me to death just now. Lu Kai was worried when he left. If anything happened to you, that would be terrible. How do you feel now?" I put down the glass of water in my hand and asked Yun Shu with a smile.
"Much better, thank you!" Yun Shu smiled.”
"What are you thanking me for? Don't be so polite. Remember to heat up the juice when you drink it in the future. Don't drink it too quickly!”I added some hot water to the apple juice and handed it to Yun Shu.
Yun Shu looked at me gratefully, but the tears in his eyes were like broken beads, rolling down his cheeks.
"I like drinking the fruit juice that Lu Kai makes the most. He has been making a cup for me every morning and evening these few years. I know that I don't have much time left. I really hope that I can drink enough at once so that I won't miss it even after I die.”Yun Shu murmured.
Hearing Yun Shu's words, I lowered my head and looked at the glass of apple juice on the coffee table. I really hoped that the person who would drink it in the future would be me. However, I knew that Lu Kai would only treat Yun Shu this well in this life. I would never be able to get his love.
"Lu Kai loves you so much, it's really enviable!”I took a sip of tea, took a tissue, and sent it to Yun Shu."I know you can't bear to leave Lu Kai, and you don't want to see Lu Kai sad, so you must make good use of the remaining time and leave the most beautiful smile in Lu Kai's mind, not tears!”
Yun Shu wiped the tears off his face with a tissue and nodded.""You're right. I still have a lot of things to do. With Lu Kai accompanying me, I think the rest of my life should be very exciting.”
"That's right. You're the strongest woman in my heart. At this time, you're actually unwilling to take a painkiller!”
"How did you know? Did Lu Kai tell you?" Yun Shu looked at me in surprise.
I smiled and nodded, but I also advised her seriously,"Don't be too stubborn. You're a doctor, so you must know your condition better than me. You've already missed the best time for the bone marrow transplant. What's waiting for you is only heart-wrenching pain.”
"No one dares to discuss life and death in front of me, including Lu Kai. You're the first person who dares to speak out since I fell sick. I'm a doctor. From the day I found out that I had leukemia, I never imagined that I would really survive through a bone marrow transplant. I refused to take painkillers because I wanted to tell Lu Kai that my situation wasn't as bad as he imagined. That way, he wouldn't be afraid that I would disappear from his side immediately, and he would be able to go to school to work without worry.”Yun Shu had sat for so long and talked to me so much. He was obviously very tired. He slowly leaned back on the sofa.
"Your love is too great. When we get back to the hospital, I'll get some painkillers and send them to you secretly. You can take them after Lu Kai leaves.”Seeing that Yun Shu was actually able to endure the torture of cancer in order to not let Lu Kai be sad, I immediately felt that my love for Lu Kai was far inferior to hers. It was no wonder that no one could compare to her in Lu Kai's heart.
"Thank you, Ye Qiu! Do you know why I want to see you?”Yun Shu suddenly said seriously.
I thought that Yun Shu had let Lu Kai bring me home because she had been at home for too long and was very depressed. She wanted to find someone to talk to, but now that she asked so seriously, I suddenly felt that things weren't as simple as I thought. I shook my head in puzzlement and said,"I don't know!"
Yun Shu heaved a sigh of relief and said,"" The first time I met you, I noticed that you were looking at Lu Kai with a strange gaze. My woman's intuition told me that you definitely liked him. At that time, I was a little angry. After I went back, I questioned Lu Kai, but Lu Kai immediately rejected it and swore that he would never fall in love with another woman in his life. After that, I searched for your bone marrow many times to no avail. I gradually accepted the fact that I would have to leave Lu Kai, so I decided to get to know you better. If you truly love Lu Kai and you're a good woman, I'm naturally willing to let you take care of Lu Kai. Only then can I close my eyes in peace. After many in-depth interactions with you, I'm sure that you're the good woman I'm looking for. In the future, you'll help me guard Lu Kai, and I'll be able to rest in peace in the underworld.”
I didn't expect Yun Shu to be more perfect than I had imagined. When she was on the verge of death, she didn't have any resentment or hatred. She only cared about Lu Kai. At this moment, I finally understood why Lu Kai ignored me. I was so small in front of Yun Shu.
"Iris, stop talking. You won't die!”My nose felt sour and tears blurred my eyes. How could the heavens be so cruel to such a good woman?
"Ye Qiu, don't be like this!" Yun Shu laughed sadly. Hurry up and promise me to take good care of Lu Kai!”
I've always dreamed of being able to hold hands with Lu Kai to the end of the world. Even under Yanzi's instigation, I've thought of Yunshu dying early. But now that Yunshu is sincere and wants to entrust Lu Kai to me, I suddenly feel that my love isn't deep enough. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for me to be like Yunshu and love Lu Kai selflessly for the rest of my life.
"Yunshu, don't say anymore. Lu Kai only has you in his heart, and I'm afraid that I can't love him like you!”I shook my head. I am Ye Qiu, the one and only Ye Qiu, and the only person Lu Kai loves in this life is Yun Shu. If I promise Yun Shu to take care of Lu Kai for the rest of my life, and if Lu Kai never forgets about Yun Shu in the future, I will forever be Yun Shu's shadow. I don't want this kind of love. I just want to truly walk into Lu Kai's heart.
Yun Shu grabbed my cold hand and said seriously,""I know what you're worried about, but as long as I'm gone, time can change everything. You'll eventually be the woman he loves the most!”
"No, I'm afraid that Lu Kai will never forget you in this lifetime!”I said coldly.
"Trust me! Promise me, okay?" Yun Shu looked at me with pleading eyes and placed my cold palm on her chest.
My heart was already soft. Seeing Yun Shu's sincere face and how much I loved Lu Kai, I gritted my teeth and nodded in agreement to Yun Shu's request.
Yun Shu saw me nod and smiled sadly.""Alright, I'll leave Lu Kai to you in the future. I believe that you will definitely be able to enter his heart.”
I wiped the tears from the corner of my eyes with a tissue and handed the juice on the coffee table to Yun Shu."Quickly drink, Lu Kai should be back soon.”
"Alright, he'll only be happy after I finish it!”Yun Shu said as he sipped the juice from the glass with a straw.
I looked at her demure appearance at this moment and completely forgot that she was a person who was about to die. Her calmness towards life and death and her unique understanding of love gave me a good lesson. I decided that no matter how much trouble I would encounter in the future, I would love Lu Kai as if I loved my own life. Only then would I be worthy of being the person Yunshu trusted and worthy of Lu Kai's true love.
