She quickly wiped her tears away and grabbed Ming Ansheng’s arm. “I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Ming Ansheng smiled. “Do you know how to drive?”
His smile was weak.
Su Yue started sobbing again. “I’ll ask my brother to come down. He’ll drive you there.”
As she said that, she unlocked her phone.
Ming Ansheng stopped her. “There’s no need to. I can still drive.”
Su Yue locked her phone and peered up at him, still uneasy. “Are you sure?”
Ming Ansheng pressed his lips. After a long while, he said, “Trust me one last time.”
Waves of sorrow hit her and tears welled up in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and nodded determinedly. “Okay.”
One last time…
One last time…
…
They went to the same hospital like the last time. Ming Ansheng called his previous doctor-in-charge on the way there, so he was warded the moment they arrived.
He leaned against the bed as Su Yue poured him a glass of water.
Ming Ansheng took the cup from her and stared at her intensely.
Su Yue sat at the foot of the bed, her head bowed.
“Yueyue.”
He called her gently.
Su Yue peered up at him.
Ming Ansheng said, “My life is too complicated. I don’t want you to become a… stepmother at such a young age. You have a whole life ahead of you.”
‘I won’t forget my grandmother’s death and I will never allow Su Yue to become the stepmother of your child…’
Su Yue gritted her teeth and refused to let her tears fall. “That’s right. I’m still young. I never thought about becoming the stepmother to your child, and I’m not shameless enough to cling onto you.”
Even if she clung onto him shamelessly, he wouldn’t give up his child for her either.
He wasn’t that kind of person. If he really was, then was he still worthy of her love?
“Yueyue…” Ming Ansheng suppressed his agony.
Su Yue suddenly stood up and smiled. “I don’t want to be the stepmother of your child. To prevent our paths from crossing in the future, you should stay here and recuperate. I’ll call auntie to come and take care of you.”
The words left her mouth quickly. She turned around, pursed her lips, and sprinted out of the room.
“I love you.”
He muttered as he watched her small frame disappear from his sight.
…
Su Yue turned the corner, leaned against the wall, and squatted slowly.
She hugged her legs and rested her forehead on her knees, sobbing.
“Yueyue.”
Su Yue was devastated and she didn’t even notice that there was someone beside her.
A familiar voice called out to her and she raised her head. She saw a gentle and kind face and hurriedly wiped away her tears as she stood up.
“Auntie.”
She had been squatting for so long, her legs were numb.
She almost lost her footing, but Wang Yuexiang caught hold of her.
Seeing her face stained with tears, Wang Yuexiang heart ached. She asked, “Why are you squatting here? Where’s Ansheng?”
Su Yue replied, “I was just about to call you. Ming Ansheng’s stomach is acting up again. He just got it checked.”
Wang Yuexiang nodded. “I know. The matron called us just now. His grandfather and I rushed over.”
Then Ming Zhongsheng arrived.
He was wearing a dark brown down coat and a hat. Using a walking stick, he walked towards them, his expression dark as he stared at Su Yue.
Wang Yuexiang was afraid that he would make things difficult for Su Yue, so she smiled and said, “Dad, you should go in and check on Ansheng.”
Ming Zhongsheng ignored her and kept his gaze fixed on Su Yue. “Lass, let’s have a talk.”
