Chapter 459 Sheng Sheng, Don't Cry

Lu Wenzhou hugged her, his lips brushing against her hair as he looked down, and asked with a smile, "You're so happy to see me!"

Lu Shengsheng nodded: "I don't know why either. I know you should go back and rest at this time, but seeing you come makes me so happy!"

"Silly girl!" Lu Wenzhou ruffled her hair and pulled her to sit down on a chair nearby. "How is Auntie doing today?"

Lu Shengsheng's smile froze slightly. "The same as always, the situation can't get better. The fact that it's not getting worse is good news."

Lu Wenzhou held her hand tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

"Hmm." Lu Shengsheng leaned on his shoulder, looking at the clock hanging on the opposite wall. "It's good that you're here. I don't think I'm as scared as I imagined."

In the past, when she was with Gu Ronghui, although she lacked nothing and Gu Ronghui would give her any resources she wanted as long as she asked, Gu Ronghui never cared about her feelings, her family and friends, or whether she was afraid.

Lu Wenzhou turned his head and kissed her on the top of her head. "If you're tired, lean on my shoulder and sleep for a while."

Lu Shengsheng yawned. "Aren't you sleepy?"

"I'm sleepy, so I'll hold your hand and take a nap." Lu Wenzhou lifted her hand and kissed it. "I'll recharge too."

Lu Shengsheng couldn't help but laugh, then closed her eyes and fell asleep without realizing it.

When she woke up, Lu Wenzhou was gone, and she was leaning back in a chair.

Thinking he had to go back to work, I got up and went back to the ward. Just as I reached the ward door, I heard a familiar voice coming from inside.

"You've really had a tough time these past few days."

Lu Wenzhou said in a patient and gentle voice, "It's not hard work, it's all what I should do."

Looking at him with admiration in her eyes, Lu's mother said, "Sheng Sheng has been spoiled by her father and me since she was little. She has a bad temper and is impatient. Don't be fooled by her loud and aggressive demeanor. She's just bluffing. You're a man, so be more tolerant of her."

"Auntie, don't worry." Lu Wenzhou took her hand and said sincerely, "I like her, so naturally I accept both her good and bad qualities. Besides, everyone has flaws. Being together is about mutual tolerance. I have flaws too, and she tolerates me as well."

Hearing his words, Lu's mother was very gratified. "I'm relieved to hear you say that. I'll be entrusting Sheng Sheng to you from now on. Thank you in advance."

"Auntie, I should thank you and Uncle." Lu Wenzhou looked at her and said with a grateful voice, "Thank you for giving birth to Shengsheng and for raising her so well. She is passionate, sincere, and has a strong sense of justice. If I hadn't met her, I probably would never have known that liking someone could bring such happiness."

"You are such a good child, I really don't know how they could bear to abandon you." Lu's mother couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she thought of his difficult and heartbreaking life.

“They don’t have your good taste, Auntie.” Lu Wenzhou said with a smile, “They say a son-in-law is like half a son. If Sheng Sheng is willing to marry me in the future, I will be like half a son to you.”

“Not just half, you are my son.” Mother Lu said with loving eyes, “Even if you and Sheng Sheng are not destined to be together, I will still recognize you as my godson.”

“Sure!” Lu Wenzhou went along with her words: “Making her call me ‘brother’ will drive her crazy.”

The two of them laughed at the same time.

But as Lu's mother smiled, she couldn't help but feel sad. "I'm really worried about Sheng Sheng. What will she do if I leave? But if I stay, I'll just be a burden to her."

This feeling is really complicated and contradictory.

“Auntie, you have to believe that Sheng Sheng has grown up. She is an adult and can take responsibility for her own life.” Lu Wenzhou comforted her. “I promise you, I will definitely protect her. As long as she needs me, whether as her boyfriend or her best friend, I will always be there for her.”

With his words, Lu's mother felt somewhat relieved and instructed, "After I'm gone, please tell her that I will always love her, and that she will always be my pride." Lu Wenzhou agreed, "Okay."

Lu Shengsheng, who was standing outside the door, let go of the doorknob and turned around, her face already covered in tears.

Lu Wenzhou suppressed the online incident and prevented it from reaching his mother's ears. However, with so many people coming and going at the hospital, everyone knew Lu Shengsheng's identity and that her mother was hospitalized there.

People in the hospital would gossip behind her back that Lu Shengsheng had made enough money from the Gu family and then found a young and handsome boyfriend; she was really shrewd.

Lu's mother overheard this while waiting for her examination, and returned to her ward worriedly to check online.

The abusive comments have been deleted, but some people are still discussing it, and there's hardly anything nice about it; it's all mockery and slander against Lu Shengsheng.

Seeing her daughter, whom she had raised with such care and love, being wantonly insulted and slandered online, Lu's mother was heartbroken.

He developed a high fever that night, and his condition suddenly worsened. The doctor used all the available medications, but they were ineffective.

Before dawn, the doctor issued a critical condition notice.

Because Lu's mother had previously stated that she would not seek resuscitation, the hospital respected the family's choice.

If Lu Shengsheng signs a waiver of liability for resuscitation, they will stop trying to save her.

Lu Shengsheng looked at the liability waiver handed to her by the doctor, her eyes red, and carefully signed her name stroke by stroke.

Tears streamed down my face as I wrote the last stroke.

Even though I was mentally prepared, I still couldn't help but feel sad when it happened.

This is her mother; signing this means she will never have a mother again.

The doctor, who was used to seeing life and death in the hospital, couldn't bear to see her like this and comforted her, saying, "For the patient, this is a relief. After all, no matter how much we care for and look after her, we can never truly feel the patient's pain."

Lu Shengsheng let go of the pen, which rolled to the ground. She then squatted down and burst into tears.

Gu Rong had already informed the doctor and rushed over as soon as she received the news.

Seeing her squatting on the ground, crying her heart out, my heart ached. I had never seen her so heartbroken and so vulnerable, as if she would break at the slightest touch.

“Sheng Sheng…” He walked up to her and knelt down, his dark eyes filled with heartache.

Lu Shengsheng seemed deaf and blind, completely immersed in immense grief.

Gu Ronghui didn't know how to comfort her. Seeing her sad and upset, he felt helpless for the first time in his life, and could only say over and over again, "Sheng Sheng, don't cry... Sheng Sheng, don't cry..."

Lu Shengsheng did not react.

He reached out and carefully wiped away her tears with the sleeve of his expensive suit.

The elevator doors slowly opened, and Lu Wenzhou stepped out quickly, but stopped in his tracks upon seeing this scene.
