After finally getting rid of that scumbag, enduring all hardships to eventually see the light, everything was supposed to improve. Song Xi got engaged to Miss Liang, the wedding was set for after the new year, then there would be grandchildren to play with. Who would’ve thought that this was when cancer would be diagnosed, oh heavens, you’re too cruel to my elder sister...
Thinking of this, Zhuang Xiyue couldn’t help but have tears in her eyes. To avoid Zhuang Fanxing noticing, she secretly wiped her eyes.
"Yueyue, what illness do I have?" Zhuang Fanxing put down the book and calmly asked.
"Nothing, just a bit of anemia, you’ll recover with so care...."
"Yueyue...." Zhuang Fanxing said helplessly, "I’ve experienced everything under the sun in this life, what else is there to fear? Just tell ."
Zhuang Xiyue’s nose tingled, and she suddenly threw herself into her elder sister’s arms, crying out loud: "Sister... sob sob...."
Zhuang Fanxing gently wiped away the tears on her face, her gaze soft and warm, "Such a big girl, still crying like a baby? If word got out, where would the dignity of The First Lady go?"
Zhuang Xiyue sobbed intermittently, pouting, "What First Lady, I’m just your little sister."
"Alright, alright, little sister, tell , what exactly is wrong with ?"
Zhuang Xiyue hesitated for a mont and chose to tell her the truth.
The elder sister has the right to know.
When Zhuang Fanxing heard she had cancer, she froze for a second, then suddenly smiled.
Zhuang Xiyue thought she had gone mad. Who could still smile upon finding out they had cancer? She couldn’t help but cry even harder.
"Sister, don’t scare ."
Zhuang Fanxing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: "It’s just cancer, look how scared you are. Don’t worry, I will actively cooperate with treatnt; no matter how long I live from now on, I will earnestly embrace every day."
It was precisely her nonchalant deanor that made Zhuang Xiyue’s heart ache even more. Her elder sister had always been like this, keeping all hardships and pains to herself.
"Sister, if you want to cry, just let it out...."
"Why cry? There are so many people diagnosed with cancer every day, I am just one of them. Besides, it’s not like it can’t be cured. Are you planning to mourn in advance?"
"Nonsense, nonsense, what are you saying? Just forget what I said." Zhuang Xiyue glared at her, "I wish you a long life, to live to be a wise old lady."
Zhuang Fanxing touched her head and gently smiled, "In this life, I have no regrets. If one day I leave, don’t be sad for because no matter where I am, I know you all love ."
"Sister...." Zhuang Xiyue burrowed into her arms, crying like a little girl.
"I won’t let you go, absolutely not."
Thinking of sothing, she suddenly sat up straight: "Yes... Yun Ya, she is an excellent doctor, she will definitely save you...." Zhuang Xiyue quickly took out her phone to call her, but it was turned off, so she called again: "Please Yun Ya, pick up the phone...."
"Yueyue, listen to ." Zhuang Fanxing took her phone away, smiling gently, "This is the best hospital in Hong Kong, with the world’s best doctors. Yun Ya is very busy, let’s not bother her, other doctors can treat my illness."
"But...."
"Enough, Yueyue, I know you’re worried about , but it has co to this, let’s face it with a normal heart, okay? Birth, aging, sickness, and death are very normal parts of life; as humans, we all have to face them sooner or later. I just hope that when the day cos, I can face it calmly."
Zhuang Fanxing’s tone was very calm, as if she was talking about sothing insignificant.
Zhuang Xiyue helplessly slumped her shoulders, "Sister, you have always been stronger than , I couldn’t even imagine how I would face these things if they happened to ."
Zhuang Fanxing smiled as she tucked the hair that had slipped by her temples behind her ear, her smile gentle and composed.
"No one is stronger than anyone else; we are all the sa, Yueyue. I am a little thirsty, could you get a glass of water?"
Zhuang Xiyue quickly turned around to get the water.
She didn’t notice the hint of sadness that flashed in the woman’s eyes at the mont she turned around.
Yueyue, you are luckier than , so besides being strong, what else can I do?
Weeping and wailing? Complaining about the unfair fate? But what good would that do? It would only make seem all the more pathetic.
Tears have always been a woman’s excuse for weakness.
In fact, she had also been insanely jealous of Yueyue; jealous of her good luck, jealous of her smooth-sailing life, parents who love her, a husband who loves her so much he would even give up his life for her. Her whole life is so fortunate that it makes one envious, and it only makes her own plight more apparent.
