Across the road from Haiyin Technology Company was a pretty well-known Cha Canting.[1] Yan Ya Jing was sitting there now, waiting for Gu Hai.
"How is your mother's condition?"
From just one glance, it was all too obvious that Yan Ya Jing was a lot thinner than before, and the usually brilliant glow that emitted from her eyes has disappeared.
"She's not doing well. The cancer has spread to her entire abdominal cavity. The doctor said there's no hope that any of the current treatment can cure her. The only thing that can be done is to ease her agony as much as possible by improving her living qualities. With the short amount of time that she has left, everyone in the family have been staying by her side. Every day, we would always act cheerful while maintaining a positive point of view, afraid she would see something is up. But I think she is fully aware of her own condition. The only thing is, she's very strong-minded so even if she knows, she won't show any signs of sadness in front of us."
Gu Hai spoke in a sunken tone, "Since it has come to this, there's no need to be upset. Just spend more time with her so that you won't have any lingering regrets."
Yan Ya Jing forcefully squeezed out a smile, "Yesterday, my mom was grumbling about how she doesn't know if she's going to be able to meet her son-in-law in this lifetime or not."
"Then you need to stop wasting time and seize the moment." Gu Hai carelessly responded.
Yan Ya Jing fixed her gaze on Gu Hai. As she stared at the side of this mature and handsome face, she reminisced about the days that they had been through together. She witnessed as his company transformed from a small enterprise to what it is now. And she, a girl who had numerous pursuers, has now turned into what others called a Sheng Nu.[2] In the blink of an eye, three to four years has quickly passed by without much hindrance. But, once the honour and pride that lived in her parents' eyes, she has now become a knot that weighed deeply in their hearts just as they were fast approaching death.
Yet, he was still completely unaware of what all this represented.
Once in a while, a few ambiguous yet somewhat flirtatious words would spring out of his mouth, however, those were nothing more than ridicules.
"I heard you promoted Di Shuang to Vice President? And also let her move into your office?" Ya Yan Jing asked.
Gu Hai shifted his gaze back from the window before he faintly responded, "Yes."
"You......." Yan Ya Jing halted the words she had desired to say.
Once again, Gu Hai's gazes moved towards the window.
Bai Luo Yin's car was parked outside the company entrance on the other side, and he was on his cellphone making a call. At that moment, Gu Hai hoped with all his might that his own cell phone that would ring. Unfortunately, that cellphone lie exceptionally peaceful and soundless in his pocket.
Less than a second later, Di Shuang walked out of the company.
"How come you have so much free time today? You came out as soon as I called you." Di Shuang asked Bai Luo Yin with half of her face hidden inside her collar to protect her from the chilly cold winter.
Although Bai Luo Yin smiled to the point that the line of his eyes seemed to curve, he responded rather indifferently, "Well, it's rare for you to have some free time and I just happened to visit my comrade. There's only a few more days left before he'll be discharged from the hospital."
