Tonight, happiness was certain.
(There is an ellipsis here...)
"Sleep, go to sleep, just sleep!" Li Changlin gave a sheepish smile and then reached out to turn off the bedside switch.
Suddenly, the light in the room dimmed.
"Ziwei, if one day I’m not around, you must take good care of Brother Changlin," Ye Xiyao suddenly said softly after a long silence.
"Xi Yao, don’t overthink things, you won’t have any problems," Qian Ziwei’s heart tightened, and she withdrew her delicate hand from Li Changlin’s side, then reached out to gently embrace Ye Xiyao.
"Promise me," Ye Xiyao said gently, holding onto Qian Ziwei’s arm.
As she spoke, she turned to look at Qian Ziwei, her eyes brimming with tears.
The tears quickly blurred Ye Xiyao’s vision.
When Qian Ziwei saw this, she immediately panicked and quickly nodded, "Okay, okay, I promise you, I promise you everything."
"Thank you." Ye Xiyao surreptitiously wiped her eyes, then spoke in a low voice again, "Actually, I know that even if I didn’t say anything, you would take good care of Brother Changlin, right?"
"Yes, that’s right, I will always take care of him. Actually, my husband doesn’t really need my care anymore, he’s so strong now, and with the Endless Dual Kings backing him up, his career will surely flourish," Qian Ziwei’s nose soured, and thinking of Ye Xiyao’s limited time left, her heart was filled with sorrow.
However, the congenital deficiency was an incurable condition.
With the current medical standards, there was no way to treat such a disease.
"Then I’m relieved. Brother Changlin, did you hear that?" Ye Xiyao let out a sigh of relief, then called out again.
"I didn’t, I’m listening. Xi Yao, don’t worry, Brother Changlin will find a way to cure your illness," Li Changlin promptly replied.
He knew that Ye Xiyao was not in a good mood at the moment.
For one thing, Lame Grandpa Ye Haoshen had already left for Earth, clearly without any chance of returning.
This situation naturally made Ye Xiyao feel sorrowful.
Unless one day, Li Changlin could really accumulate enough energy in the Moonlight Treasure Box, and then teleport to Earth.
But by that time, Ye Xiyao would probably have long passed her twenty-fourth birthday!
Li Changlin shook his head forcefully; he dared not imagine if Ye Xiyao were to perish , whether he could accept that reality.
No, absolutely not, I must not let anything happen to Xi Yao!
He shouted loudly in his heart.
Li Changlin felt that he must speed things up.
He had to bloom in many aspects and develop together.
And then, with his greatest effort and in the shortest time, fill up the Moonlight Treasure Box’s energy.
This was the last chance.
Lame Grandpa left behind the Moonlight Treasure Box, perhaps just for waiting for this very day.
Li Changlin quietly mused to himself.
"Brother Changlin, I believe in you!" Ye Xiyao sighed silently, a strained smile appearing on her face.
Then, she quickly turned her head, but the tears in her eyes still could not be held back, streaming down.
"Xi Yao, don’t think too much, it’s okay, you really won’t have any problems," Qian Ziwei said softly, gently patting Ye Xiyao’s shoulder and comforting her.
"Thank you, Ziwei, I will cheer up," Ye Xiyao said through clenched teeth, resolutely.
"Yes, sleep now. We will all help you, we’ll challenge fate with you!" Qian Ziwei said softly, holding Ye Xiyao’s hand firmly.
"Thank you, Ziwei," Ye Xiyao turned back to look at Qian Ziwei, speaking earnestly, "No matter what, I won’t give up easily. Even if tomorrow is the end of my life, I’ll make today magnificent!"
"That’s right, that’s the spirit," Qian Ziwei hugged Ye Xiyao tightly, patting her back and gently saying, "Even if not for ourselves, for the sake of our husband, we must seriously cherish our own lives."
"Yes, for Brother Changlin," Ye Xiyao gently nodded and then fell silent.
Suddenly, the room quieted down.
Li Changlin too remained silent; his heart was already outlining his future development.
