Despite her anxiety, Mei Yu’s mother wiped the tears from her eyes, trying to calm herself. She couldn’t panic, as seeing her like this would frighten her daughter. Perhaps this incident would leave Mei Yu with lifelong trauma.
After stabilizing her emotions, Mei Yu’s mother left the room and saw Mei Yu sleeping soundly on the living room bed, which slightly comforted her. She walked to the bedside, fearing waking her, and sat on the sofa. Although the TV was silently playing a program, she had no interest in watching. She constantly glanced towards Mei Yu’s bed, worried her daughter would sleep poorly or have nightmares.
Despite her illness, Mei Yu’s mother sat on the sofa all afternoon. As evening approached, she gathered her strength and started cooking for her daughter.
She carefully prepared a table full of delicious dishes. After finishing, she walked to the bed and gently patted her daughter’s shoulder. “Mei Yu, Mei Yu…” Mei Yu opened her eyes, feeling somewhat dazed. Seeing her daughter awake, Mei Yu’s mother softly said, “Come, daughter, have some food.”
” She pointed to the dishes on the table and reached out to help Mei Yu get up.
Chapter Fifty-Three (Maternal Love and Care)
Mei Yu sat up, gently rubbing her head, and said to her mother, “Mom, I don’t really want to eat.” Mei Yu knew her mother had specially prepared this for her, but she really couldn’t eat…
Mei Yu’s mother wasn’t angry. She smiled and said, “Okay, if you don’t want to eat, we won’t. Would Mom keep you company and chat for a while?” Her mother’s voice was especially soft and gentle.
Mei Yu smiled, pulling her mother’s arm, letting her sit on the bed beside her, and said, “Mom, you’re so good. You must always stay with your daughter.” Saying this, they sat leaning against the bed, talking.
Mei Yu’s mother hugged Mei Yu, looking at her and saying, “Hehe, of course. Mei Yu is the most well-behaved. Mom will always be with you.” Then, they both laughed together.
