Yan Qingsis hands trembled slightly. She did not fear life or death, nor any evils of this world. However, she was afraid of that pair of pure eyes.

Yan Qingsi was worried, what if the future proved that her choices were wrong? What then?

People often showed their weakness and cowardly side in front of people they care about, sometimes even immobilized by fear.

Yue Tingfeng saw Yan Qingsis eyes showing signs of defeat and resignation, his heart tightened, then threw a glance at Mrs. Yue.

Mrs. Yue cleared her throat and said, Oh, son, you go and buy some fruits. Look at you, so unfilial, with your mother hospitalized here, you did not even get me the fruits I wanted to eat.

Yue Tingfeng pointed at the table full of things, Arent there plenty right here?

People from Su family took turns visiting, the entire table was filled with health products and fruits to the brim.

Mrs. Yue gritted her teeth and said, But they are not the type I want to eat. I want some peaches. Go buy some for me. I want the crunchy ones.

Ma, youre already old. Arent you afraid of losing your teeth from eating those crunchy peaches?

Mrs. Yue grabbed the pillow on the bed and threw it over, You rascal, why should you care. Im used to it. I dont care, I want to eatouchit hurts

Mrs. Yue expression changed, then held onto her stomach.

Yue Tingfeng nodded, Fine, fine, you dont move around. You just arent scared of opening your wound again. Ill go right now, okay? What about you both? Whos going to take care of two patients?

Mrs. Yue grunted, Then you should hurry.

Summer was conducive to faster recovery, and with proper care without inflammations, Mrs. Yues injury was already much better.

Yue Tingfengs expression instantly change and laughed, Alright then, Qingsi, Ill be out for a while. Ill be back shortly. Are there anything you want to eat?

Yan Qingsi shook her head, No.

Mrs. Yue started to shoo him away, Hurry, off you go.

Yue Tingfeng threw a worried look at Yan Qingsi, then picked up his car keys and exited, Ill be going now.

Mrs. Yue waved her hands, chasing him out.

After Yue Tingfeng left, Mrs. Yue held onto her injury, then carefully moved over to sit beside Yan Qingsi.

Yan Qingsi lent her a hand to assist her, gripping tightly and asked, Auntiehows your injury?

Yan Qingsis voice was still a little hoarse and trembled slightly.

With only Mrs. Yue around after Yue Tingfeng left, Yan Qingsi was feeling more anxious.

Just like how after misbehaving as a kid, afraid to enter the door, afraid to face her mother.

Yan Qingsis mother was a very gentle woman. Never once in her childhood memory did she get disciplined or lectured. When she misbehaved, her mother would not blame her, but instead gently looked at her, and ask in a soft, kind voice on why she did it.

That was when Yan Qingsi was most afraid of her mother. She even felt that it would be better to be like other kids to be punished by the parents, which was something she did not fear.

Facing Mrs. Yues gentleness, Yan Qingsi felt that she had returned to her childhood.

Mrs. Yue touched Yan Qingsis forehead. Feeling no signs of fever, she relaxed and smile, Im fine. Its just a little injury, more or less two centimeters. Itll recover quickly. Dont you know, my stomach was full of flabs after giving birth. The stab did not injure anything inside.

Yan Qingsi lowered her head, her nails digging into her palm and said, AuntieIm sorry.

Mrs. Yue smiled gently, then asked softly, Why are you telling me sorry?

Yan Qingsi quivered. Mrs. Yues sound, her tone, at that moment, was almost the same as her mother
