Gradually, his shirt was drenched.

  The tears that Wei Shuyi had held back just now finally rolled out of his eyes. He took a deep breath and said, “Beauty, I hope that after I die, you can live well. After a period of sorrow, you have to pull yourself together. You have to believe in love and others. There will always be a second person who loves you like I love you.”


  “In a few years, find a suitable person to marry and have children.” When he said these words, Wei Shuyi was jealous, but he still continued, “In the future, when you think of me, you can also go to my grave to see me. You’re not allowed to bring that person along. You can report the good news, but you can’t say that person’s good because I’ll be jealous.”


  He would really be jealous.

  Just the thought of her living with another man made her heart ache. “We’re not fated in this life. Let’s make an appointment for the next life.”


  Beauty Wu burst into tears.

  “Brother, stop it. Please… stop it.”


  “Don’t be so cruel…”


  When Beauty Wu heard his words, she felt her heart ache, let alone Wei Shuyi.

  “Brother, don’t speak. I understand, I understand everything.” She buried her head in Wei Shuyi’s back, her hands tightly pinching the buttons on Wei Shuyi’s abdomen. Her entire body was trembling. Wei Shuyi placed his hand on the back of Beauty Wu’s hand. When he saw the rings on their left hands, his nose turned sour again.

  Which would come first? Tomorrow or an accident?

  Wei Shuyi had never thought of this question before. When this day came, he finally knew what despair meant.

  He rubbed his eyes and lowered his head to say to Beauty Wu, “Alright, go out first. I’ll cook.”


  Beauty Wu refused to leave.

  “No, I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay with you.”


  “…Okay.”


  He cooked, and she helped.

  The atmosphere was especially sad.

  Facing the table of food, Beauty Wu lost her appetite.

  Wei Shuyi picked up a pig’s tail for her. “Your favorite.”


  Beauty Wu looked at the delicious pig tail, but she didn’t have any appetite. Not wanting Wei Shuyi to worry, she mechanically brought the pig tail into her mouth, bit it twice, and swallowed it. Wei Shuyi frowned and said to her, “You didn’t spit out the bone.”


  “…I forgot.”


  Wei Shuyi looked at Beauty Wu’s pale face and turned his head away.

  Beauty Wu didn’t even want to sleep anymore. Wherever Wei Shuyi went, she would follow him. Even when she went to the toilet, she wanted to help him zip up his pants.

  Even so, at two in the afternoon, Wei Shuyi’s body started to hurt.

  He asked Beauty Wu to return to her room.

  Beauty Wu refused.

  “I want to stay here and watch you at all times.” Beauty Wu refused to listen to anything else.

  Wei Shuyi then said, “It’s very ugly when the illness relapses. Don’t look at it.”


  “Don’t hide from me!” Beauty Wu was determined to never leave him. Wei Shuyi knew how scary he looked when his illness acted up. He would definitely scare Beauty Wu. He sighed and said to Beauty Wu, “Save some dignity for me, Beauty.”


  Beauty Wu’s heart ached.

  She bit her lip and stared at Wei Shuyi for a moment before slowly returning to her room. As soon as she returned to her room, Wei Shuyi couldn’t hold back anymore. He quickly got up and staggered into the washroom. The moment he entered the washroom, he knelt on the ground.

  Beauty Wu closed the door and heard a muffled sound coming from the washroom. She sat by the bed and the more she listened, the paler her face became.

  Wei Shuyi knelt on the cold floor weakly. Gradually, the pain disappeared. He then felt warm liquid flowing out of his nose and ears.

  When he realized what it was, he quickly helped himself to the wall and got up. He turned on the tap and rinsed his nose and ears with water. He was wiping his face with a towel when the bathroom door burst open.

  Seeing Wei Shuyi look at her in panic, Beauty Wu was like a child who had done something wrong.

  She quickly lowered her head and apologized, “I didn’t hear anything. I didn’t see you come out. I thought…” She thought that Wei Shuyi understood what she meant.

  He smiled weakly and said, “I’m sweating a lot. I want to wash my face before coming out.” As he spoke, he turned on the tap and flushed the red blood in the sink. Beauty Wu came over to take a look and was relieved.

  “I see…”


  “Yes, I’m covered in sweat. Go out and wait for me. I’ll wipe it off.”


  “Let me help you.”


  “No!”


  Beauty Wu hesitated for a moment before leaving the washroom.

  As soon as she left, Wei Shuyi reached into his ear again and felt some red blood. His body swayed and he tried to stand up straight again to continue cleaning it. After half an hour, Wei Shuyi walked out of the toilet.

  He was a little tired and fell asleep.

  Beauty Wu stared at his pale face and her heart ached.

  Was he always in so much pain after his illness acted up? A few days ago, he accompanied her to sightsee every day. How tired was he!

  The more she realized how good Wei Shuyi was, the more despair Beauty Wu felt.

  Wei Shuyi slept until 4: 50 pm.

  Beauty Wu was not in the room. Wei Shuyi got out of bed and walked out of the room. He heard a sound in the kitchen. He walked towards the kitchen and saw Beauty Wu busying herself. His gaze shifted to a shadow. Beauty Wu lowered her head and focused on cooking. Without raising her head, she said to him, “In another ten minutes, the dishes will be ready.”


  The long table was filled with dishes that Beauty Wu was good at cooking.

  Wei Shuyi looked at the table full of delicacies with a warm gaze.

  “Why are you doing so much? You can’t finish it. It’s a waste.”


  Beauty Wu said, “I want you to try all the best things I make.”


  “…Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”


  He gave Beauty Wu a face and actually ate two bowls. Actually, his body could no longer digest so much, but he didn’t want to dampen her spirits. Wei Shuyi put down the bowl and said to Beauty Wu, “Then I’ll wash the dishes for you again.”


  “…Okay.”


  After washing the dishes, Wei Shuyi walked out of the kitchen and didn’t see Beauty Wu. He frowned and walked towards his room. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Beauty Wu scream, “Don’t open the door! Wait a while more!” Beauty Wu’s voice was filled with panic.

  Wei Shuyi had already locked the door halfway.

  Upon hearing this, he thoughtfully locked the door and placed his hand down. He leaned against the door frame and remained silent.

  About ten minutes later, Beauty Wu’s voice came from inside. “You can come in.”


  Wei Shuyi maintained his curiosity and pushed open the door.

  When he saw Beauty Wu in the room, Wei Shuyi was stunned.

  She was wearing a pure white mermaid tail wedding dress, and a white lace veil covered her charming and exquisite face. Beauty Wu stood in the middle of the room, holding a bouquet of blooming lilies and flowers. She was looking at him with a faint smile through the transparent veil.

  Wei Shuyi heard his heart beating vigorously. He didn’t look like a person who was about to die.
