Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 584

Chapter 584: Encouragement
Looking at Han Liling’s expectant eyes, Doctor Yu said, “Little friend, although you have no money, your father can pay for you.”

When Han Liling heard this, her originally pale face turned even paler. She shook her head in disgust and fear and shouted, “No! I don’t want to see him!”

Startled by her sudden strong reaction, a thought flashed through Doctor Yu’s mind. He quickly held her hand and said, “Okay, okay, we won’t tell your father. Don’t be afraid.”

Han Liling looked at the doctor with wide eyes and asked, “Brother doctor, you are not lying to me, are you? I don’t want to see him.”

Doctor Yu nodded and reassured her, “I promise that I won’t let him visit you unless you want to see him.”

Seeing that he was serious, Han Liling nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. Her body relaxed and she felt sleepy suddenly. She slowly closed her eyes and drifted to sleep.

After waiting for a while, Doctor Yu heard her steady breathing and covered her small body with a thin blanket. He took the board hanging on the bed and wrote down information about Han Liling’s condition.

By the time he finished writing, the nurse was already standing next to him and asked, “Doctor Yu, do we need to make an appointment with a psychiatrist for the patient?”

Doctor Yu looked at the sleeping Han Liling thoughtfully and said, “I will contact the pediatric psychiatrist and notify her father. You must check on her more often.”

The nurse nodded and said, “I understand, Doctor Yu.”

Doctor Yu looked at her again, and then left with the nurse.

At the same time in Xie village, Bai Luyun was sitting on the veranda, leaning on the pillar while in a daze. She held a stone pendant in her hand and stared blankly into the distance.

When a villager walked by her house, she looked at her through the open gate and sighed when she saw her condition. As a mother herself, the middle-aged woman knew how much pain a woman must endure when she loses a child. Therefore, she has some sympathy for Bai Luyun.

After hesitating for a while, she made up her mind and walked into the yard. Typically, homeowners will notice if someone comes into their yard. But now, she was standing in front of Bai Luyun, yet her eyes were empty.

The middle-aged woman squatted in front of her, held her hand, and said, “Sister-in-law, I know that you are in pain now, but you can’t continue acting like this. You must cheer up and be strong. You still have your son, he needs you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the middle-aged woman looked at her without getting any response. She sighed, sat down next to her, and looked at the sky. She promised her sister that she would visit her house before noon, but now it seems that she will have to go later than the agreed time.

After a long time, Bai Luyun finally turned her head and looked at the woman sitting next to her.

This person is her neighbor, and they usually just exchange a few polite words with each other. She didn’t get close to her because she felt that this person always looked at her with a look that seemed to reveal her secrets. It was as if she had seen clearly her ugly heart and cowardly self.

But after her daughter’s accident, those who were relatively close to her left after saying a few perfunctory words. But it was this person who stayed by her side and comforted her. It was surprising, but also expected, since she knew that her neighbor was always a warm-hearted, generous person.

When she felt a pair of warm hands holding her cold hand without any intention to let go, Bai Luyun felt her nose sore and tears fell from the corners of her eyes one after another, startling the middle-aged woman.

Seeing her crying, she was shocked, but at the same time she was relieved. She hugged her, patted her back gently, and said, “Cry it out and you will feel better.”

When Bai Luyun heard her words, she buried her head in the woman’s arms, and all her suppressed emotions burst out uncontrollably. Not only was she worried about her daughter, she was also heartbroken by her husband’s words and extramarital affairs.

She thought about it for a day and a night, and finally realized that she could not and was unwilling to accept her husband’s infidelity.

Why should she endure her husband’s disgust, hurtful words, beatings, and betrayal? Just because she loves him and he doesn’t love her back?

She truly loves him and is willing to sacrifice everything for him, but she also desires his heart, not just his body. She married him when she was 18 and they have been married for ten years.

She gave him the best years of her life and almost died when she gave birth to his children. But after she turned into a yellow-faced woman because of the hard life and heavy work, what she got was not his love or appreciation, but his betrayal and disgust.

She is indeed as stupid as her daughter said. Maybe it’s time for her to wake up from her empty dream and face reality. After crying for nearly half an hour, Bai Luyun finally stopped.

She wiped her tears and hiccupped, “Sister-in-law, thank you.”

The middle-aged woman waved her hands and said, “I’m just sitting next to you and doing nothing. There’s no need to be so polite to me. After all, we are neighbors. Close neighbors are better than distant relatives.”

Bai Luyun nodded after listening to her words, and said in a hoarse voice, “Sister-in-law, if I offended you before, I will apologize to you now.”

The middle-aged woman looked at her thoughtfully and said, “Sister-in-law, who has not made mistakes in life? As long as we realize this and want to change for the better, there is no need to dwell on the past. Raise your heads up, keep walking forward and be kind to yourself. One day, you will realize that you are in fact much better than you and everyone else thought.”
