Su Yuwei tilted her head back, staring intently at Wu Fei.

She said, "And you see, this time it's more serious than ever before."

Wu Fei's heart skipped a beat for no reason.

His fist clenched and unclenched repeatedly, then he whispered, "Don't think about these things for now, just focus on getting better... Captain Su said you'll be having surgery in the next few days, don't be afraid."

Su Yu looked at him, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

She lowered her eyes and nodded, "Yes, thank you."

However, she quickly let it go, a polite smile appearing on her lips: "But I've also thought it through recently, it's better for someone as sickly as me not to be a burden to others."

“I have already caused my father a lot of trouble. If it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t have suffered so much all these years… I have no reason to keep bothering you.”

"No matter what, thank you for coming to see me. I'm very grateful."

Outside the door, four gasps were heard.

Lin Ting muttered under her breath, "Our Su Meiren has really made something of herself! That was a brilliant move!"

"Yes, yes, reading Qiong Yao's works was worthwhile..."

Jiang Zong looked completely bewildered.

Isn't this about distancing yourself from the situation? Why would someone say that?

I don’t quite understand.

Inside the door, Wu Fei's expression changed.

"I've never felt that you're a burden!"

His voice unconsciously rose a little, eager to prove his point.

"You...I...I really, really have never felt that being with you was a burden!"

He couldn't help but grasp Su Yu's shoulders, staring into her eyes as he spoke slowly and deliberately.

The blush on Su Yu's face had faded, and her complexion had returned to pale.

She didn't struggle, looked into Wu Fei's eyes, and gave a pitiful smile.

A sickly beauty is the most endearing. Looking at her, Wu Fei felt as if his heart was about to be crushed.

"Yu'er, I swear, I really never thought that way!" Wu Fei closed his eyes and said, "I was afraid that I... would really implicate you."

How to say this?

All I can say is that Grandma's words were truly frightening.

A sly glint flashed in Su Yu's eyes: "So you still like me."

Wu Fei: "..."

He was a policeman and had learned a lot from Su's father during this time, so he naturally noticed the change in Su Yu's eyes.

"You...are you deliberately trying to provoke me?"

Wu Fei gritted his teeth.

He was so anxious today that he actually fell into such a simple trap.

Su Yu reached out and grasped his wrist, blinking at him as she avoided answering his question: "Wu Fei, I haven't come to see you lately because I've been thinking about a lot of things..."

"I'm certain that I like you. It's not because of unrequited love in my youth, nor is it out of resentment. I just like you, and that doesn't change with time or have anything to do with gains or losses."

"Director Liu said that after the surgery, I should be almost no different from a normal person, so—"

"If my surgery is successful, let's be together, okay?"

Her voice was soft and gentle, yet every word struck Wu Fei's heart.

He sighed silently.

"Yu'er, you'll regret this."

"I would have regretted it if I hadn't said these words."

Su Yu smiled, but half of her eyes were red.

She was actually terrified.

She knew the surgery was risky.

She was terrified that she wouldn't be able to leave the operating room, that she would die before she could say what she wanted to say.

"If I failed..."

"Just forget about me."

"But don't forget me too quickly. Just remember me for a while, a month is enough."

She pursed her lips slightly, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Wu Fei wiped away her tears, his rough fingertips rubbing against her cheek until it hurt slightly.

He said, "I can't forget it, I really can't forget it."

If I could forget, I would have forgotten long ago.

Why should he keep avoiding her?

It's not that I don't want to see you, but that I dare not.

He feared that there was even a one in ten thousand chance that he might hurt her.

"Yu'er, we made a promise. As long as you come out of the operating room safe and sound, we'll stay together."

He stared into her eyes and spoke with utmost seriousness.

What he really wanted to say was, "Let's be together now."

But the thought lingered in my mind for a moment before being suppressed.

If we can give her some motivation to work hard, what's wrong with waiting?

Su Yu burst into laughter through her tears, and childlike, she held up her little finger to him: "Pinky promise!"

Wu Fei stretched out his finger and intertwined it with hers.

Their intertwined fingers are like their fate, interdependent and closely connected.

"Wow!"

"My brother is really impressive!"

"Bring me back such a beautiful sister-in-law!"

Wu Yan couldn't help but cover her mouth and gasp.

Her eyes shone brightly, showing both the excitement of discovering a juicy story and the joy of finding a partner for her sister-in-law.

She didn't want to consider or care about the premises they mentioned; she stubbornly believed that Su Yu would definitely come out of the operating room safely and recover her health.

"What...are you doing?"

Su's father's voice rang out behind the group.

He looked at the children in front of him with a puzzled expression, not understanding why they were outside the door.

Upon hearing this sound, the four girls who had been eavesdropping immediately stood up straight.

"Uh……"

Lin Ting glanced at Su's father's face and tentatively asked, "Uncle Su, how is your heart?"

Unaware of the situation, Su's father still replied, "It's fine, no problem."

"Are your blood pressure and blood sugar levels okay?"

Su's father was even more puzzled: "This... shouldn't be a problem."

Lin Ting breathed a sigh of relief and finally asked, "So, do you think you could accept it if Su Yu were dating someone now?"

Su's father was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said kindly, "I broke his leg!"

"Uncle, please calm down!" Wu Yan quickly tried to help her sister-in-law, "My sister-in-law... Su Yu still needs surgery, she can't be beaten up right now!"

Su's father said matter-of-factly, "I'm going to beat up that kid!"

The other three girls turned to look at Wu Yan at the same time.

Your brother is the one who's going to get beaten up, so are you scared?

Wu Yan's eyes shone even brighter than before: "May I ask what weapon Uncle usually uses? I'll go and prepare it for you right away!"

Is there anything more worth celebrating than your own brother getting a beating?

Have.

That means my older brother is going to get a beating from my father-in-law, hahaha...

Su's father observed Wu Yan's excited expression and pondered their earlier conversation. Suddenly, a thought struck him: "Where's that brat inside?"

He pushed open the door and strode in with a hostile expression.

As soon as he entered the door, Su's father felt a buzzing in his head, as if all the blood in his body had rushed to the top of his head.

That brat is actually holding his daughter's shoulders!

And judging from the way the daughter looked, she seemed to have cried!

And what's more, why does this brat look so familiar?

"Wu Fei! How dare you plot against my daughter!"

Su's father was incredibly agile and kicked out with one foot.

"You brat! I've raised you like a son, and you're eyeing my daughter?"
