The last two chemotherapy sessions were a torture for him, but for Shang Shiyu, it was no better than for him.
She lived in panic every day. Whenever she closed her eyes, she would have recurring nightmares. In the last few days, she was so weak that she didn't sleep for days and nights.
Later, there was no other choice, so the doctor prescribed her some tranquilizers, and she was able to barely sleep for a while, but she didn't sleep very well.
In the last few days, Tang Wei started to vomit violently. He hadn't eaten anything in the first place, and it seemed like he was going to vomit bile. His immunity was gone, and his body functions had dropped to the worst. He was mostly in a coma. But fortunately, it was just a coma, and he managed to get through it.
When Tang Song announced the good news, most people cried with joy. Shang Shiyu, however, seemed to have lost his soul. After a long while, he asked woodenly and incredulously, "Am I... dreaming now?"
"Girl, you're not dreaming!" A rare look of joy appeared on Old Master Tang's face after such a long time.
"It's true! Fourth brother made it!" Tang Youyou hugged Shang Shiyu excitedly, "Sister-in-law, my fourth brother is saved! Sixth brother said that once his body recovers a little, he will undergo a transplant as soon as possible."
Shang Shiyu's tears then fell like rain.
"He has just passed the first stage." Tang Song looked at their excitement and felt happy in his heart, but he still spoke rationally: "The transplant surgery later is also a very important stage."
When this was mentioned, everyone's joy faded a little.
After all, there have been failures before.
Shang Shiyu was equally worried.
Tang You You couldn't bear it, so she advised her, "It's okay. Sister-in-law, Fourth Brother is very strong. He has survived this most difficult stage, and things will get better and better in the future."
Shang Shiyu curled his lips.
Well, I just hope that just as Youyou said, everything will get better and better.
———
Tang did not receive a bone marrow transplant.
Three months later, it was already late spring.
When Tang Wei slowly opened his eyes, he heard a soft voice ringing in the room.
"Well, we have been discharged from the hospital today. The doctor said that he just needs to rest at home."
"A babysitter? Will he need one?" She was kneeling on the sofa hugging a pillow and talking on the phone. She was looking out the window at the spring scenery. "But I think I can take good care of him by myself. I studied health care in the hospital and copied down the recipes for the nutritious meals."
Just as she finished her words, a pair of long arms hugged her waist from behind.
Shang Shiyu was startled, and when she smelled the familiar smell, her heart relaxed instantly. She tilted her head slightly, pressed the back of her head on the man's shoulder, and looked at him coquettishly. There was endless tenderness in his eyes, and he leaned in her ear and whispered, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"
"It's Youyou. You were discharged from the hospital today and she couldn't make it here, so she called me to ask about the situation. Did I wake you up?"
Tang Wei glanced at his watch, pecked her lips lightly, and then said, "I slept too long during this nap, it's time to wake up."
"My brother is awake? Sister-in-law, let me talk to my brother." Unwilling to be ignored, Tang Youyou shouted twice. These two people, ever since the fourth brother woke up and his condition improved, they have been in love all the time, and they simply treat everyone around them as air. Seeing this, she also wanted to fall in love.
Shang Shiyu handed the phone to Tang Wei, "Youyou wants to talk to you."
Tang Wei took it with one hand, and with the other hand he put his arm around Shang Shiyu's slender waist, and held her to sit on his lap. He gently pinched her waist twice, and heard Tang Youyou say over there: "Fourth brother, my sister-in-law and I said that we need to find a nanny for you. Do you remember Aunt Min who used to take care of Feifei? Now Feifei is gone with my eldest brother, and Aunt Min is free, I think it's a good idea to let her go to your place."
"Don't worry about us. I'm fine now. And..." Tang Wei glanced at Shang Shiyu with a faint smile on his lips, "I don't want a third person to appear in the house yet."
Shang Shiyu also laughed.
Well, the two of them have a good understanding on this point.
After Tang Youyou heard this, she let out an "ouch", and the air was filled with the sour smell of love!
"Yes, yes, it's been a long time since I've been in a relationship. I'm so inexperienced. How could I ask someone to disturb your world of two, right?"
"Yes. But you are old enough to have a serious relationship. You and Feifei are the only two single people in your family. Feifei is younger than you, so you can wait for two years. You can look for someone else."
"Brother, you've been sick for so long, but no one told you about your current situation. Feifei and I are not the only ones who are single in our family now."
Tang Wei was indeed surprised, "Who else?"
"Brother!"
Tang Wei raised his eyebrows, "Brother...?"
"He and his eldest sister-in-law divorced. My eldest uncle has been mad at my eldest brother for this, so he brought Feifei in as a backup! I don't know what the situation is now."
"Well, we are finally divorced." Tang Wei was surprised and sighed, "It's not a bad thing."
Shang Shiyu looked at him inquiringly, wondering how he could say such a thing given his tolerant personality. After all, divorce is a regrettable thing.
"Fourth brother, what about you guys?" Tang Youyou asked curiously.
"What us?"
"When are you and Fourth Sister-in-law going to get married?" Tang You You said excitedly: "I've made it clear that I want to be the maid of honor when you get married! I wasn't even a maid of honor when Second Brother got married."
marry
Tang Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it in two years."
"Two more years? It's really unfair of you to waste your sister-in-law's youth like this."
Tang Wei felt that such accusations were a bit unfair and funny, "Doesn't it count as youth if you don't get married? We both think it's better to date first. Forget it, you are a girl who has never been in a relationship, you won't understand."
Tang Youyou felt like she had suffered another critical hit. She groaned a few times and hung up the phone with great resentment.
Shang Shiyu sat on Tang Wei's lap, put his arms around his neck, and looked him in the eye, "You are lying."
Her nonsensical words made him laugh, "What are you lying about?"
"I don't think it's okay to fall in love now. I always carry my household registration book with me, and I'm just waiting for you to take me to the Civil Affairs Bureau in person."
Tang Wei smiled, "I've seen people who are anxious before, but I've never seen anyone as anxious as you."
"You know I'm anxious, so why don't you comfort me?"
"How can I comfort her?" Tang Wei gave her a deep kiss on the lips, "Is this okay?"
Shang Shiyu felt light and fluttery after being kissed, and her face was slightly flushed. Her eyes were bright as if they were decorated with crystals. "That's fine, but it's not enough."
