towards her. 。Before, Gu Chi was also like this, indifferent to everyone except himself. 。"It's pretty good. The family who took me in is really kind to me, they treat me like their own daughter."...After finishing breakfast, Cheng Luo hurried to work. Cheng Ke Xin followed and went to the hospital afterwards. 。Although she hasn't been in the country these past few years, she has instructed Cheng Luo to keep hiring people to take care of Su Ya Fen. 。It is said that Su Ya-fen's health has been deteriorating year by year, and she hasn't found a suitable bone marrow donor yet, so the surgery has been postponed until now. 。Thinking about this, Cheng Keixin felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart. 。For so many years, she has never returned home to visit her mother. It's truly unfilial. 。But thinking of Gu Chi and Cheng Ruo'er, she really didn't dare to come back. 。She was afraid that when she returned and saw them, the wounds that had finally healed with time would reopen. 。That kind of heart-wrenching pain, she couldn't, nor did she have the courage to endure it once more. 。Reaching Su Ya-fen's ward, Cheng Ke-xin stood outside the door for a long time without pushing it open. Suddenly, a feeling of fear stopped her from entering. 。Perhaps this is homesickness. 。The hospital, the ward, the room number, the seats outside the corridor... Everything before her was familiar. The scenes of her and Su Ya'fen laughing and chatting seemed to have happened just yesterday. 。But in fact, they hadn't seen each other in five years. This familiar scene felt strange to her. 。Knock knock 。She still didn't barge in like she used to, Cheng Ke Xin lightly tapped on the door of the ward with her finger. 。"Come in, the door is unlocked. " 。Hearing a voice that was incredibly familiar, yet noticeably aged, Cheng Kexin's eyes instantly welled up. She felt her nose, throat, and heart constricted with emotion. 。Although Cheng Kexin already knew that Su Yaofen's current condition was serious, the moment she saw her after pushing open the door, Cheng Kexin was still taken aback. 。Tears flowed uncontrollably, the psychological construction she had just built crumbling in this instant. 。Tears fell in large drops to the ground. Cheng Kexin covered her mouth tightly, unable to believe what she was seeing. She feared that she would cry out in pain from the sight. 。Could this person in front of me really be her own mother How could she have become like this!Su Ya-fen was currently hooked up to an IV drip, her veins bulging with the effort. Her hands were almost just skin and bone, covered with countless small puncture marks. 。
Looking up, Cheng Ke Xin's gaze saw nothing but bone. Even through the dry skin, she could see the shape of the bones, a true picture of flesh and blood reduced to timber.
Her cheeks were sunken, a horrifying shade of blue, and her cheekbones stuck out, giving her face an unnatural sharpness. Finally, Cheng Keqin met Su Yaofen's eyes. 。The eyes, which were once clear and radiated warmth, are now clouded over. Like a sweet well that has run dry, only a pool of mud remains at the bottom. 。But those eyes, when they fell upon her, suddenly blazed with light. She could even clearly see the joy and longing within them. 。"Ke Xin Is that you back I can't be dreaming, right" 。" Mom, I'm back, I'm sorry...sniffle..." Hearing Su Ya Fen's hoarse voice, Cheng Ke Xin finally couldn't hold it in and threw herself onto the front of her hospital bed crying. 。These years she should have come to see her mother, the Su Yafen she remembered was still smiling gently and lovingly at her. When did she become this haggard and listless “It’s really Ke Xin, it’s really you back!” Su Yafen smiled, touching Cheng Ke Xin’s hair, “Don’t cry, don’t cry, look up and let mother see you, it’s been a long time since mother has seen you.” 。 With tears welling in her eyes, Cheng Kexin lifted her head and tried to force a smile like she had practiced at the door just now. But she couldn't do it. All she could do was let the tears flow freely down her face. 。Okay, okay, stop crying. 。Su Ya fen raised her hand to wipe Cheng Ke xian's tears, but her dry hands stung her skin and also her heart, causing her tears to flow even more fiercely. 。
He buried his face in Su Yaofen's side, crying loudly. Cheng Keixin didn't know where so many tears came from, like a burst dam, they flowed uncontrollably.
And Su Ya-fen didn't know how to comfort her, she could only gently pat her on the back... When she finally cried until she was tired and her mood calmed down a little, she raised her head and looked at Su Ya-fen. 。"Kexin, how have you been these past few years" Su Yaifen asked softly, her eyes betraying a hint of guilt. 。If it weren't for her, how could Kexin have taken so many years to return to her own life 。"I'm fine, how about you" Wiping the remaining tears from under her eyes, Cheng Kexin asked the same question. 。"I'm doing well too, my brother has always had people taking care of me these years." 。"Oh, I..." Cheng Keixin wanted to continue, but she didn't know what to say. 。After the initial excitement and melancholy of their reunion, Cheng Keixin realized that five years had created a gulf between her and Su Yaqin. The tears they had shed earlier felt more like a farewell to the past. 。"Has Cheng Luo come back this time too" Su Yaofen finally took over the conversation and asked. 。“Well" 。“Cheng Keixin nodded. “ … How are you feeling now”
She originally wanted to call out ‘Mom’, but thinking that Cheng Ruoruo was Su Ya’s biological daughter and more beloved, she felt a strange sense of awkwardness and distance.
I hadn't thought of that just now, she could have easily shouted it out. 。But now she seemed hesitant to speak, and finally chose to use honorifics. 。Noticing Cheng Keixin's change in how she addressed her, Su Yafen felt very sad, but she didn't know what to say. 。She wasn't her real mother, and had even stolen her life. She didn't blame herself for it already, she was being very tolerant. How could she possibly deserve to be called "Mom" "I'll just drag myself through this, one day at a time." 。"Su Yaofen said calmly that she no longer held any hope these years." 。Upon hearing this, Cheng Ke Xin became a little anxious. How could Su Ya Fen be so negative about her condition This could only harm her body and bring no benefit. 。"Has Cheng Ruoruo visited you these years Have you done a bone marrow compatibility test You need to have the surgery as soon as possible!"Hearing Cheng Keixin's words, Su Ya'fen's eyes clearly flickered with disappointment and she didn't speak. 。When she saw this, Canxin's heart flashed a thought. Could it be
"Could it be that Ruoruo doesn't want to donate her bone marrow to you" She asked angrily, thinking to herself that Ruoruo couldn't possibly be so cruel even to her own biological mother, could she
“No, it’s not like that” 。"Su Ya Fen hurriedly waved her hand, her face full of worry. "Yaor is busy and has no time. It's not that she doesn't want to, it's just that she's too busy. Please don't misunderstand her." 。Su Yaqin’s eager explanation only confirmed her guess, a smirk playing at Cheng Ke Xin’s lips. 。Busy Busy enough to have time for a sea trip, but not time to save your own mother who is in imminent danger! Although she had already witnessed it, Cheng Ruor's ruthlessness still refreshed her understanding once again. 。She had never, not even once in her life, seen someone so utterly disregard familial ties. 。Seeing Su Yaifen, who seemed weak and frail as if she could scatter with a touch, Cheng Kexin frowned tightly. 。If the bone marrow transplant surgery is delayed any longer, I'm afraid Su Ya Fen won't be able to hold on. 。But should she go look for Cheng Ruor Thinking of that vicious woman who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals, Cheng Keixin hesitated. 。When Cheng Keixin was feeling extremely conflicted inside, her phone in her bag rang. 。After taking out her phone and seeing the caller ID, Cheng Kexin's mouth turned into a straight line. 。 what Gu Chi was pulling her for. 。Gu Chi once again used a resentful look to stare at Cheng Ke Xin, but seeing that Cheng Ke Xin still didn't understand his meaning, he could only open his mouth and...
