"It’s alright, everything will pass. Close your eyes and sleep well. When you wake up, everything will be over." Jin Chenye held her in his arms, restraining her self-harming hands.
His gentle voice carried a bewitching magic.
"I can’t sleep. Every ti I close my eyes, I see Yu Xiuzhun. I beg him not to leave, but he ignores ..." Ye Mingi said, as tears continuously fell from the corners of her eyes.
Her hands clenched into fists, nails digging into her skin, her palms a bloodied ss, yet she seed to feel no pain.
"Mingi, rember, you still have the baby. This is Yu Xiuzhun’s child. Do you not want it anymore?" Jin Chenye sensed her body stiffen slightly, quickly picked her up, and carried her back to the ward.
Gently laying her down on the bed, he covered her with the blanket.
"Not just the baby, but even Yu Xiuzhun’s death is still an uncertainty. Didn’t you once believe he was still alive?"
"..."
Ye Mingi abruptly lifted her head, her beautiful eyes filled with hope as she looked at Jin Chenye, her lips moved as if wanting to ask sothing, but dared not to.
She feared hearing any negative answer.
"I can’t guarantee Yu Xiuzhun is definitely alright, but until you see a body, you can’t assu he’s dead. It’s too soon to give up, do you understand?"
After covering her with the blanket, Jin Chenye saw Ye Mingi beco obedient, then turned to the bathroom, wrung a hot towel, and wiped away the tear marks on her face.
They all thought it would be better for Ye Mingi to think Yu Xiuzhun was dead, so she’d give up.
They forgot that if soone truly gives up, they lose the will to live.
"Take good care of yourself and the child. As long as you’re alive, you have a chance to wait for the person you want to wait for."
"Will he co back?" Ye Mingi held onto his hand, her anxious tone like a child awaiting affirmation.
Her eyes, like those of a deer, full of fragility and helplessness.
"As long as you’re willing to wait, nothing is impossible. You must think this way. If you give up, one day when he overcos hardships to find you, only to discover you’re gone, can you imagine how despairing it would be?"
"..."
"And your baby, who is less than three months old, hasn’t had a chance to open their eyes to see the world. Can you bear to take them with you and leave just like that?"
"..."
Ye Mingi’s gaze darkened, her hand moved to her belly.
Feeling the presence of the baby.
In her mories, Yu Xiuzhun never had the chance to properly touch their baby...
She can’t be so selfish. She must wait.
Wait for him to return.
To let him see their baby with his own eyes, to hold the baby with his own hands.
"Don’t think about anything else. Close your eyes and sleep well." Jin Chenye’s soft voice whispered in her ear.
A gentle breeze blew in through the window.
Carrying a slight chill.
Ye Mingi tiredly looked at his gentle, handso face, and slowly closed her eyes.
...
This sleep was deep for Ye Mingi.
So deep she seed unwilling to wake.
She always wanted to see Yu Xiuzhun in her dreams, but no matter how she slept, Yu Xiuzhun never appeared.
It was as if he was tired of her, too tired to even glance at her in her dreams.
Ye Mingi opened her eyes, blinked once, and before anyone beside her could react, she suddenly sat up.
Turning her head, she looked earnestly at Jin Chenye.
"I want to go to the law firm, all the things Yu Xiuzhun left for , I want them all!"
