"Then you must get better quickly, okay? I'll be giving birth in a few months, and your grandson wants to open his eyes and see his grandma too."
Ye Manman spoke slowly, using gentle persuasion, injecting new goals and hope into Liu Rulan's desolate heart.
Liu Rulan nodded heavily, as if she couldn't say anything else, but she understood everything.
Ye Manman was delighted and held her hand to chat more, sharing stories about her marriage, her college entrance exam, and how she found her. Liu Rulan listened attentively to every word, her eyes shining, nodding happily from time to time.
Time flew by, and it was already past midday. Ye Manman always ate regularly, but today she skipped lunch, and her stomach soon protested.
She originally wanted to chat more with Liu Rulan, but her stomach was already growling, so she had to stop.
"Mom, I'm hungry. I need to go eat lunch."
"I still have class this afternoon. I'll come to see you after class, okay?"
