Entangling With You for the Rest of My Life

33. Disappearing

Translator: Flying Lines

Yahui suddenly knelt down in front of Tang Miaoyu and cried out involuntarily, “Miaoyu, I went to see your dad today. I’m really afraid and guilty. I don’t have the courage to tell him what happened today! In the future, I also won’t have the courage to tell him that his daughter has died… Although I am right in front of you now, in my heart, I could still see your daddy’s lonely but hopeful and expectant eyes… If you really love your parents, for them, just live well! Please…I don’t want to see uncle Tang’s pitiful face again. He’s nearly my father… ”

Tang Miaoyu lay on the ground and recalled the lonely figure of her father in the prison, she suddenly cried with excitement, “Dad!” I’m sorry! I’m so sorry… ”

Yahui also shed tears and hugged her. She sobbed, “You’ve already suffered so much. Just take one more step… Miaoyu, please take one more step…”

Tang Miaoyu only sobbed painfully, and could no longer speak.

Pain, despair and tears, as time went by, would always pass. Some facts that didn’t want to be faced would have to be faced…

Although Miaoyu survived, she lay on the bed like a corpse every day, staring at the people who were going in and out of the ward. Occasionally, tears would fall and occasionally fears would appear. Slowly, that once lively and cute girl began to shrink bit by bit and became silent.

“Miaoyu …” Yahui cared about her. When she was about to persuade her again, her parents sighed softly and walked in, “No matter what happens, it will take some time to calm down. When her father went to prison, Miaoyu also cried for a long time. Let her calm down. Don’t push her too hard…”

Yahui could only look at Miaoyu quietly after hearing this.

Tang Miaoyu kept silent. She just closed her eyes calmly and tears rolled down her face. It was as if she was going to bid her farewell to her life and walk to death at the next moment.

In the blink of an eye, it was already winter. The weather gradually turned cold. The cold wind blew in from every corner of the window, waking up Miaoyu on the sickbed…

However, she ignored the coldness and lay still on the bed. She knew that the white gauze covering her left face had been removed last night, but she was no longer curious about her face, as if it was not her face. She no longer cared about it, nor did she look forward to it. She lay on the bed like a dead.

But outside the door, there was a conversation in a low voice. It was the voice of a doctor. He said solemnly, “It has been a month, the wound of the patient has almost healed, but in the future, she should avoid being excited, because the skin being burned is still very fragile. Also, do not let her eat spicy food..”

Yahui choked up and sobbed, “Doc, is she really unable to accept skin grafting? No matter how much money it cost, we would never give up on Miaoyu! Please, help her… ” Then Yahui knelt down to the doctor.

Miaoyu lay on the bed, opened her eyes quietly, and tears floated in her eyes.

The doctor quickly helped Yahui up and said, “Don’t do this. You don’t know much about skin grafting. Although skin grafting can improve the skin surface, it can not restore the patient’s original appearance. What’s more, even if we want to do it, we have to wait for two or three years. It’s up to her skin condition that whether she can have the surgery or not. But now, her condition is really not very good. And her skin is very sensitive, so the operation is likely to produce terrible complications! Therefore, there is no need for you to waste money and time in the hospital. Our hospital sympathizes with your family’s difficulties and knows that the patient’s special condition, so we will exempt you from 10% of the expenses. You’d better leave the hospital.”

“Doctor.” Yahui looked at the doctor with tears.

“Leave the hospital. Make a good arrangement for the rest of her life. It’s indeed really cruel to be disfigured. Take good care of her. In this month, your family has worked hard and spent a lot of money to treat her injuries on shoulder and finger joints. Fortunately, her injuries all healed well. Just remember, don’t let her lift heavy objects in the future to avoid muscle damage. Who on earth did this merciless thing!”

The doctor shook his head, sighed softly and left.

Yahui shed tears while watching the doctor leaving. She sighed helplessly, but she still lowered her head and wiped away her tears. She turned around and gently opened the door of the ward. After she walked in, she was stunned to see that the bed was empty. The beddings were in a mess, and the window was open, letting in the bright sunshine.
