If my heart can continue to stay with her, no matter where or when in the future, she will always have the courage to move forward.
Maybe... she really can find a life that belongs to her, truly free from burdens, concerns, and weaknesses... and live once."
Xu Musen coughed, and even had so blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Don't speak anymore, you will be fine, I'll find soone to match an organ for you, find the best doctors, you..."
An Nuannuan's tears flowed as she wiped the blood stains from the corners of Xu Musen's mouth.
"It's no use anymore..."
Xu Musen shook his head. He could feel that his body had reached its limit, and even if he received an organ transplant, he might not survive. It would be better if she survived.
But at the mont of death, Xu Musen was no longer afraid of anything.
He even smiled and comforted An Nuannuan in front of him.
"An Nuannuan...please promise , this is my choice...okay?"
Xu Musen held her hand, An Nuannuan's whole body trembled, she bit her lip so hard it almost bled.
She watched Xu Musen's smile, and tears dripped down.
In the end, she looked into Xu Musen's eyes and spoke reluctantly: "You... are truly a fool. You are just as stubborn, self-righteous, and sick as her!"
Yet, it was such a person.
Such an obstinate, pathological, yet steadfast love was what made An Nuannuan slowly fall in love with him.
"He is my husband, I want to save him..."
"She is my wife, what husband in the world doesn't love his wife..."
They were really similar.
Like all couples under the sky, they argued, disagreed, tornted each other, and even went through the brink of divorce, but they never once said that they didn't love each other.
An Nuannuan knew she had lost, and she would never win in this life.
But her heart didn't hold that much resentnt, because it was this very person that made her love so willingly.
"I'm sorry... I wasted so much of your ti..."
Xu Musen knew she had agreed, and only then did he feel at ease, carefully looking at the An Nuannuan in front of him.
In his mory, that twelve-year-old night, the girl lying on the hospital bed, was also covered in tears like this.
He once brought hope to her in the hospital.
Now, she could personally accompany him on his final journey.
That could be considered a form of completeness.
"There are many things you might not get to hear say... if possible, I think we should have been good friends..."
Xu Musen smiled as he spoke, but his body grew increasingly weak, and he felt regret, realizing he had never noticed this kind of girl in his life.
An Nuannuan held his hand tightly, feeling his gradually weakening strength, and her tears fell uncontrollably: "We will, we definitely will. Not just friends, but lifelong best friends!"
"Lifelong... best friends..."
Xu Musen smiled, the corners of his mouth stained with blood. It felt good; if there was another life, becoming lifelong best friends with such a lovely girl wouldn't be bad.
"Thank you... it's just a pity that I can't continue accompanying my best friend... in the future when you eat and go shopping, if there's another life, please tell ...
I will make it up to you... and we will definitely beco the best of friends... for a lifeti..."
With his last bit of strength, Xu Musen reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes.
An Nuannuan couldn't suppress her sobs, clinging his hand to her cheek: "We will... we definitely will. I will find you this ti, I will be more courageous, be more proactive, I definitely will..."
In these nearly twenty years of waiting, An Nuannuan finally got close to the person she most wanted to be near, yet this closeness... was about to turn into the furthest distance.
She cried, her entire being uncontrollable.
Xu Musen felt the light before him gradually fade; his body's limit, reaching its end.
He just looked at her crying face in front of him.
Xu Musen gently pinched her cheek and mustered his final smile: "Don't cry... didn't we agree before, not to cry. Life is bitter, so eat sothing sweet... if soone makes you unhappy, just ignore them. Sotis being a little absent-minded... can actually be cuter and make you stronger..."
Xu Musen saw through her bravado. Just like Yao Mingyue, the more strong and smart a woman appeared, the more fragile and sensitive she was inside.
If possible, Xu Musen would prefer to see a silly and carefree, happy her every day.
"Hmm… I know, I will."
An Nuannuan nodded, pushing herself to show a silly smile, guiding his hand to touch her smiling lips.
"Cough…"
Xu Musen coughed, but he smiled, really finding the girl before him, with tears streaming yet forcing a smile, so adorable.
eting her at the final mont of life might have been a consolation from the heavens.
If there really is another life, eting her earlier might have made his life entirely different.
"I want to take back what I said earlier..."
Xu Musen suddenly spoke.
An Nuannuan was stunned, with even more tears in her eyes: "Is it because my smile isn't good enough... I can keep improving it, don't dislike ..."
She spoke, a tear-streaked face struggling to smile.
Xu Musen shook his head, gently stroking her cheek.
"No... what I an is, if there is another life, you mustn't tell these things because..."
Xu Musen's vision gradually darkened, and at the very end, there was only the crying An Nuannuan in front of him, with those bright, clear eyes.
"Because... if there is another life, such a lovely girl like you, even without these mories... I would still..."
"Fall in love with you..."
The last four words, Xu Musen's hand slowly fell.
...
At this mont, far away...
Huhai, hospital room.
An Nuannuan's eyes sparkled with tears.
She looked at Yao Mingyue, who was also in tears and lost in thought.
The sunlight poured in, like a warm light breaking through the long-suppressed darkness.
Gently and slowly, word by word.
"This is...
our story."
