Playing the male antagonist in a melodramatic novel is fine for a bit of fun.

When Liu's father told Qin Yi that he had stomach cancer, Qin Yi's tearful expression reached its peak.

He looked at Liu Ruyan with a stubborn and tenacious gaze, his expression carrying a hint of expectation.

Chen Zhou looked at Chen Ya, and Chen Ya looked at Chen Zhou as well. They both said in unison, "Why does his expression look so distorted?"

Yes, distorted!

A person's face can display so many emotions, so their expression looks extremely distorted and complex, just like the expression on Yujiro Hanma's face when he smashed his face against the glass.

Liu Ruyan glanced at Chen Zhou, because Qin Yi's expression was extremely embarrassing.

She is still nominally Qin Yi's wife, and Qin Yi's behavior makes her seem like she has very poor taste.

I wonder if my senior looks down on me.

After a moment's thought, Liu Ruyan said, "That's good news."

"With the medical expertise of Shanghai and the power and wealth of the Liu family, early-stage stomach cancer is easily treated."

"Go get treatment as soon as possible."

After saying that, Liu Ruyan closed her eyes again.

She is very tired right now, and will divorce Qin Yi once she recovers.

Qin Yi felt extremely empty inside.

He was diagnosed with cancer, but his wife didn't seem to care much after finding out.

……

In the evening, a spirited girl with pigtails, carrying a small bag and wearing an adorable bear outfit, rushed into the ward with teary eyes.

"elder brother--"

With a shout, the energetic girl rushed over and hugged Chen Zhou.

This energetic girl is Chen Zhou's younger sister, Chen Xin.

At 20 years old, four years younger than Chen Zhou, she is currently a junior at Shanghai University.

As Chen Xin hugged Chen Zhou and cried, Chen Ya twisted Chen Xin's ear.

"Have you forgotten that Ah Zhou is a patient right now? Aren't you afraid of hurting Ah Zhou by lunging at him like that?"

Chen Xin immediately looked apologetic: "Brother, does it hurt?"

Chen Zhou smiled and affectionately rubbed Chen Xin's head, saying, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."

My parents were quite busy when they were young and didn't have much time to take care of Chen Xin.

The older sister is almost eight years older than Chen Xin, and coupled with the trauma of her younger brother going missing when she was six, the older sister couldn't get close to Chen Xin at first.

Therefore, most of the warmth Chen Xin felt at home came from Chen Zhou, who was the person with the best relationship with Chen Xin in the entire Chen family.

Chen Xin nodded, then took out a cream puff from her bag.

She held it to Chen Zhou's lips: "You've been thinking about this for a long time, haven't you?"

Snacks are Chen Zhou's favorite food.

In his previous life, Chen Zhou spent 150 out of 200 years cultivating in the spiritual realm.

The rest of the time, they were either searching for ancient tombs of cultivators or fighting for rare and precious materials, leaving little time to enjoy life.

Now that he has unexpectedly arrived in modern society, and with the spiritual energy so scarce that he can't spend all his time cultivating, eating has become Chen Zhou's greatest pleasure.

This cream puff was one of the snacks Chen Zhou often bought when he was studying in Shanghai, and it also carries the memories of Chen Xin's childhood.

A relieved smile appeared on Chen Zhou's face. Just as he opened his mouth, a fair hand reached out and took the cream puff.

The owner of the hand was none other than Chen Ya.

Chen Zhou looked at Chen Ya and put on a pitiful expression: "Sis, I really want to eat it."

"No!" Chen Ya said sternly, "The doctor said you can only eat light meals for the time being!"

Chen Zhou: "But the doctor also said that I'm actually fine."

Chen Ya: "That won't work either."

"Excuse me, is Chen Zhou in this ward?"

A slightly tense voice rang out, followed by a stunningly beautiful woman with long hair walking into the ward.

She had dark circles under her eyes and looked very tired.

Chen Zhou asked with some surprise, "Wenrou, is your insomnia acting up again?"

Chen Ya's tone was somewhat stern: "Gentle!"

Chen Xin also frowned slightly: "Gentle Sister."

Liu Ruyan also spoke up, "Gentle Senior."

Wenrou, the eldest daughter of the Wen family, and Chen Zhou's childhood sweetheart.

Wenrou suffered from severe insomnia as a child until she met Chen Zhou in kindergarten.

Back then, Chen Zhou had already begun his cultivation.

Although Shen Ying is reserved, her aura is undeniable, and it is indeed very comfortable to spend a long time with Chen Zhou.

At that time, Xiao Wenrou didn't know what this meant.

She only knew that she couldn't sleep at home, but she slept soundly after seeing Chen Zhou at kindergarten.

Furthermore, the closer one is to Chen Zhou, the more soundly one sleeps.

Mr. and Mrs. Wen also felt very strange, and in the end they could only let it go.

The turning point came in elementary school, when Chen Zhou and Wen Rou entered different schools.

Without Chen Zhou, Wenrou couldn't sleep during the day or at night, and no treatment could cure her; she could only rely on sleeping pills to get through the day.

However, all medicines have side effects, and long-term use of sleeping pills can cause significant damage to the body.

Wenrou saw Chen Zhou again at one of Old Master Chen's birthday banquets.

She could feel that being close to Chen Zhou made her feel very comfortable.

She told Wen's parents about her discovery. They didn't believe Wenrou's views, but they still transferred her to Chen Zhou's elementary school class.

In addition, they also engaged in business cooperation with the Chen family to strengthen the ties between the two families.

After all, in their eyes, Wenrou was unlikely to live long.

Therefore, they will try their best to fulfill their tender thoughts within the limited time of their lives.

To their surprise, Wenrou's spirits did indeed improve after she joined Chen Zhou's class.

Seeing how well it was working, Wen's parents increased their cooperation with the Chen family, so that Wenrou could visit the Chen family every day until she fell asleep and then be brought back to the Wen family.

As she spent more and more time with Chen Zhou, Wenrou's spirits improved.

As for Chen Zhou, who was involved, he naturally noticed the problem with Wenrou.

As the relationship between the Wen and Chen families grew closer, Chen Zhou naturally considered curing Wenrou.

However, Chen Zhou was still young at the beginning and had no way to buy medicinal materials and prepare medicine without anyone knowing.

Therefore, Chen Zhou chose the most conservative treatment method.

First, keep Wenrou by your side, and his aura will naturally improve Wenrou's physical condition.

By high school, Wenrou's symptoms had become much milder, and she could fall asleep without sleeping pills even when Chen Zhou wasn't around.

At this point, Chen Zhou realized that it was time to completely cure the disease, so he bought some medicinal herbs.

While Wenrou was having her birthday party, Chen Zhou ground the medicinal herbs into powder and sprinkled them on a homemade mini cake as a gift for her.

From then on, Wenrou's insomnia was cured.

So when Chen Zhou went abroad, Wenrou didn't come with him.

But now, her gentle demeanor makes it seem like her insomnia has relapsed.
