Fu Zhangnan asked his family not to intubate or perform resuscitation when the time really came, so as not to add to the sorrow.

Fu Runing was so angry about this that she ignored him for two hours.

But she was only willing to spend two hours.

The cancer cells metastasized to the brain and progressed very rapidly, and Fu Zhangnan's body became visibly thinner.

At first he could still pick up Xu Luo from school, but after two months, it became difficult for him to go out.

Fu Runing accompanied him around the house, checking if there was anything broken, from circuits to networks, and finally he even repaired the robot dog that Duoduo had broken.

Shengzhou City has entered midsummer, and it is such a bright sunny day, it is clearly not the season for parting.

The trees in the Fu family's yard are lush and green, and everything is still so full of vitality.

Xiao Jingting came to the Fu family more and more frequently, and everyone tacitly accepted his presence.

In the past ten days, Xiao Jingting has been sleeping in Fu Zhangnan's room.

They all understood what this behavior meant.

Fu Runing said several times that she also wanted to sleep with her father, but was driven out by Fu Zhangnan. He said that it was already too crowded for two grown men to sleep and there was no room for a third person.

She knew that her father felt sorry for her and didn't want her to be immersed in this emotion day and night, even though she had already pretended to be very good.

Fu Runing would go over every night with a pillow in her arms, help them make the bed, and watch TV with them. When it was time to go to bed, she would always be chased out with the pillow in her arms.

In the evening, she would use her cell phone to communicate with Xiao Jingting and ask him about her father's situation.

She suddenly felt very fortunate that she had not spoken harshly to Xiao Jingting after her divorce and had not had a bad quarrel with him.

At least now Dad has both a son and a daughter, and they have someone to accompany them every day, and he also has a lovely and sensible granddaughter.

Even if there is no blood relationship, love is the bond.

A rain in midsummer lasted for a long time, and every corner of Shengzhou was filled with humidity.

There are many dehumidifiers in my house, running continuously day and night.

But not seeing the sun all day always makes people feel depressed.

At night, Fu Runing peeled an apple and looked at the time from time to time.

Xiao Jingting told her today that he would be home a little late. She didn't want to rush him, but she also hoped that he would come back soon.

Fu Jinbei hasn't been going out much recently. On weekdays, he always socializes with a lot of drinking buddies, but recently no one can find him to go out.

He sat down next to Fu Runing and picked up the half-peeled apple she had peeled and started eating.

Fu Runing followed him and took out another apple to peel it.

The atmosphere was silent.

Suddenly, she heard Fu Jinbei mutter, "I don't know where your second aunt bought those apples. They taste bland to me."

Fu Runing just continued peeling in silence.

The apples were sweet, but they had no taste in their mouths.

"Second Uncle, weren't you playing chess with my dad? Why did you come down?"

Fu Jinbei said, "Your daughter is with him. This little girl was not raised in vain. She knows who treats her well."

Fu Runing whispered, "She is braver than me. Unlike me, a coward, I dare not face her."

She didn't dare to face the death of her loved ones.

Even though her father had been fighting for her for a long time so that they could say goodbye properly, she still couldn't prepare herself mentally.

The fruit knife in her hand suddenly tilted, and a blood mark appeared on Fu Runing's finger, a very small cut, with blood oozing out.

It obviously didn't hurt at all, but she suddenly burst into tears because of the pain of the wound.

She suddenly covered her face and cried, breaking down emotionally.

She sobbed and said, "Uncle, how did you deal with it when grandpa and grandma passed away? Can you teach me..."

Fu Jinbei also felt bad.

"I was only a teenager when your grandparents passed away, so of course I was sad. Your father is a few years older than me, and he told me that it would be just the two of us from now on, so we had to live our lives well."

"Your dad is better at studying than I am, and I'm better at working than he is, so we should each play to our strengths and make the best of our lives. Later on, although we disliked each other—I thought he was too pretentious and out of touch with reality, and he thought I was uneducated and a hooligan, and told me to read more—we just said these things between us brothers, and neither of us really took them seriously."

Fu Jinbei wiped his face and continued, "At that time, we had the same idea: to make money, build a new house, marry a wife, have a child, and then our two families would live together. No one could abandon the other."

"But your father is abandoning us now..."

Hearing this, Fu Runing's tears suddenly fell and she cried uncontrollably.

She burst into tears and said, "Second Uncle... I just wanted... I just wanted you to comfort me. How could you say something more pitiful than me... I have to comfort you in return..."

Fu Jinbei was also annoyed, and turned his face away to hide the redness in his eyes.

He said, "Don't cry. From now on, I will be your father and you will be my daughter. We have to keep living like this."

Fu Runing covered her mouth and cried even more painfully.

The uncle and nephew were breaking down in the living room, while Wen Lan was secretly wiping away tears in the corner of the living room. He didn't dare to step forward, for fear that the three of them would gather together and cry.

It’s really embarrassing to say that all of them adults are not as good as the youngest child in the family.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening when Xiao Jingting hurried back.

He changed his shoes and walked into the house, his body damp from the dust and exhaustion of the rainy night.

Fu Runing immediately walked over to him. She didn't ask why he came back late today, but asked, "Have you had dinner?"

Xiao Jingting looked at her eyebrows and softened his tone, "I've eaten."

Fu Runing walked aside, poured him a glass of warm water, and picked up the coat he had put down and hung it up.

After a long while, she asked, "Did anything happen today?"

Xiao Jingting didn't want to tell her, but seeing the worry in her eyes, he lowered his voice and said, "Weng Yuqing sent someone to South City. Han Cheng told me that they have spotted someone, and maybe it's the person in the picture Yu Wanyin gave me."

Upon hearing this, a rare look of surprise appeared in Fu Runing's eyes. This was the best news in recent months.

"Is she starting to lose her temper now?"

Xiao Jingting's eyes darkened. "She is not a person with good psychological quality. It's mainly because of others..."

The statute of limitations for this matter has long passed, not to mention there is no evidence yet, so we can only watch them lose their composure.

Fu Runing looked at him puzzledly, "What do you mean by others?"

Xiao Jingting said calmly, "Her handsome son, Xiao Yanting."

Fu Runing didn't say anything. She really couldn't say anything bad about Xiao Yanting's evaluation.

If it was agreed upon, Xiao Jingting would be unhappy.

It's not bad to say, but no one treated her badly.

Xiao Jingting didn't plan to say more to her, so he changed the subject and said, "I'm going to take a shower first, and then I'll go to Dad's room."

"it is good."

After saying that, the two of them went upstairs one after the other.

Fu Runing had already folded his pajamas, and she handed the clothes to him as if to please him.

The tacit understanding between the two of them during this period was not like that of a former couple, nor like a couple, nor like siblings. It was a relationship that was hard to describe.

No matter what her relationship with him is now, Fu Runing only knows that they need to maintain a good relationship now that they are living under the same roof.

She handed the change of pajamas to Xiao Jingting, and the man took it from her and was about to close the bathroom door.

Fu Runing put her hand against the door.

Xiao Jingting's eyes were filled with confusion, "What's wrong?"

Fu Runing looked at him with a hint of worry in her eyes.

She said: "You have to pay attention to safety. Take your car for regular inspections. Pay attention to brake failure and keep window breaker hammers in the car."

They had encountered such a tragic accident more than 20 years ago, so who knows what dirty tricks they might use against him now.

Xiao Jingting's eyes were moved, and he said calmly: "Don't worry, I will be fine. You didn't kill me more than 20 years ago, and it is even more impossible now."

"Can you please stop saying that? Just remember when I told you to be safe, why say anything else!" Fu Runing almost blurted out, stopping him from speaking.

She was really annoyed by people who kept talking about life and death.

Xiao Jingting breathed slowly, his deep gaze falling quietly on her.

After a moment, his voice softened: "Okay, I won't say it."

After hearing this, Fu Runing nodded reluctantly and walked out of the room in a confused state.

The drizzle over the past few days and the accompanying low pressure make people feel upset.

At night, Xiao Jingting slept in the same room with Fu Zhangnan as usual.

He hopes to spend every night in peace and tranquility.

Late at night, Xiao Jingting didn't know what time it was, but he was suddenly awakened by the rustling sound.

He has been a light sleeper lately and wakes up almost at the slightest noise.

The dim bedside lamp was on and Fu Zhangnan was opening a drawer.

Xiao Jingting immediately got up from the bed, he knew he should look for painkillers.

He opened the drawer and found the pills, then poured warm water for Fu Zhangnan.

In the end, cancer patients rely on painkillers to prolong their lives, but there comes a time when these painkillers are no longer effective.

Xiao Jingting watched him finish his meal, and he didn't rush to turn off the lights and go to sleep. Instead, he sat by the bed and waited quietly.

Fortunately, the painkiller still works on Fu Zhangnan. Gradually, the effect of the medicine takes effect, and his face is not as ugly as before.

Fu Zhangnan looked at the young man in front of him and said apologetically, "You should go to bed early."

"No hurry, I'm not sleepy."

Fu Zhangnan picked up his phone and checked the time. It was half past twelve in the morning.

He always feels that time is passing in a chaotic manner recently.

"I'm not sleepy anymore. I don't feel like sleeping."

Suddenly, Fu Zhangnan seemed to have thought of something and said, "Go make Ningning's dessert for tomorrow morning."

Xiao Jingting would not say that it was too late now and why not do it tomorrow. He responded and followed Fu Zhangnan out of the room.

The villa was quiet in the early morning because everyone else in the house was asleep.

Only the kitchen was lively, with a dog sitting on the floor and a cat squatting on top of the refrigerator.

"I ate the red bean dumplings you made last time. I think you learned the essence of the jujube paste filling, but there was one thing you didn't get right."

Xiao Jingting followed up on his words and asked, "What is it?"

Fu Zhangnan took out two yams and said, "Use yam puree instead of starch and glutinous rice flour."

Xiao Jingting pretended to know it for the first time, "So that's how it is."

Fu Zhangnan looked at him with a smile, "You try it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingting was stunned for several seconds.

It was a simple sentence, but it caused a lot of emotions to surge in his heart.

"it is good."

Xiao Jingting put on gloves and processed the yam, peeling it, cutting it into sections, steaming it in a pot and then mashing it into a paste.

Fu Zhangnan was watching from the side, and there was some satisfaction in his eyes as he watched his skillful movements.

"Ningning likes to eat this. Do you know why?"
