【Sweetheart Lover】

Lin Yanan was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer, but she had been hiding this sad news from her best friend.

On this day, her best friend Xiaoxuan came to go shopping with Lin Yanan. Lin Yanan endured the discomfort and tried to act normal. She dressed up carefully, trying to hide her pale face and haggard look.

The two walked on the busy streets, Xiaoxuan excitedly pulled Lin Yanan into one store after another, trying on all kinds of beautiful clothes. Lin Yanan smiled and accompanied her, giving some suggestions from time to time, but every few steps, she had to stop to catch her breath, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

As she walked, Lin Yanan suddenly felt a sharp pain. She couldn't help but frowned and her steps staggered slightly.

Xiaoxuan asked with concern: "Yanan, what's wrong with you? Are you tired from shopping? How about we find a place to sit for a while?"

Lin Yanan quickly forced a smile: "It's okay, maybe I'm a little tired because I walked too fast." She didn't want to spoil Xiaoxuan's fun because of her illness.

But Xiaoxuan always felt that something was wrong with Lin Yanan. She used to be full of energy, but today she seemed particularly weak. Xiaoxuan began to wonder, but she didn't think much about it and continued to pull Lin Yanan forward.

At lunch time, Lin Yanan had no appetite for the delicious food. She just took a few bites and put down her chopsticks.

Xiaoxuan looked at her suspiciously: "Yanan, you are so strange today, are you hiding something from me?"

Lin Yanan quickly shook her head: "Really not, don't think too much. It may be because of the hot weather, I don't have much appetite."

Xiaoxuan nodded doubtfully and continued eating.

After shopping, Lin Yanan collapsed on the sofa. When Xiaoxuan went to pour her a glass of water, she accidentally saw the medicine bottle that Lin Yanan had placed on the table.

Xiaoxuan picked up the medicine bottle and looked at it. Her expression changed instantly: "What kind of medicine is this? Yanan, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Yanan tried to grab the medicine bottle back in a panic: "It's nothing, just ordinary stomach medicine."

Xiaoxuan was not willing to believe it. She held the medicine bottle tightly and looked at Lin Yanan firmly: "Don't lie to me, tell the truth! Ordinary stomach medicine will be in a bottle like this? Yanan, we are best friends, what happened to you?"

Lin Yanan knew she couldn't keep it a secret anymore, and couldn't help but shed tears: "Xiaoxuan, I have advanced stomach cancer... I didn't want to worry you, so I didn't tell you. I was afraid to see you sad for me."

Xiaoxuan was stunned, tears welled up in her eyes, she hugged Lin Yanan and burst into tears: "Why are you so stupid? Why did you hide it from me? We are best friends, no matter what happens, we have to face it together! You should have told me earlier, maybe we can still find a way, maybe there is still hope."

Lin Yanan gently patted Xiaoxuan's back and comforted her: "Xiaoxuan, don't cry. I don't want this to affect your life. I know there is little hope of curing this disease, and I don't want everyone to suffer."

Xiaoxuan wiped her tears and said, "Yanan, don't give up. Medicine is so advanced now, there must be a way. Let's go see the best doctors together and try various treatment options. I will always be with you, no matter how hard it is, we will bear it together."

In the following days, Xiaoxuan and Ruan Jianan came to take care of Lin Yanan every day. She prepared nutritious meals for Lin Yanan, accompanied her to the hospital for examinations, and encouraged her to face treatment positively.

Lin Yanan was in a very low mood because of the side effects of chemotherapy. Xiaoxuan came to her with a beautiful wig and said with a smile: "Yanan, look what I have prepared for you. Even if you lose all your hair, you are still the most beautiful." Lin Yanan was infected by Xiaoxuan's optimism and her mood gradually improved.

Lin Yanan was shaking in pain on the hospital bed. Xiaoxuan held her hand tightly and kept telling her interesting stories in the past to distract her. "Yanan, do you remember when we sneaked out to watch a concert together when we were in school? We were so happy back then." Lin Yanan gritted her teeth and nodded.
