Early the next morning, Geng Chengyu carried freshly picked fruits from the manor to the ward and saw that Ni's father had woken up and Ni Ya was feeding him porridge.

"Chengyu is here."

Although Father Ni is still weak, his condition is much better than yesterday.

"Well, how are you feeling today?"

Geng Chengyu put the fruit on the table and walked to Ni's father's side.

"Better."

Ni's father drank half the bowl of gruel and signaled to Ni Ya that he didn't need to feed him any more.

"Chengyu, please take Ni Ya back to rest. She stayed with me all night and is very tired."

Ni's father felt sorry for Ni Ya, but she didn't want to leave, "No, Dad, I want to stay with you every day."

"Dad is fine now. You can go back and have a good sleep."

Ni's father was afraid that Ni Ya's body might not be able to bear it any longer.

"No, I won't leave."

Ni Ya shook her head and refused, taking the thermos pot to the kitchen to clean it.

"This girl is so stubborn."

Father Ni smiled helplessly and said to Geng Chengyu, "She can only soften her temper in front of you. Please persuade her more."

"good."

Geng Chengyu turned around and walked into the kitchen and saw Ni Ya standing by the sink crying.

He pursed his lips, walked behind her, and said, "Niya, you must be stronger."

"Yes, I need to be stronger."

Ni Ya nodded and said sarcastically, "If I'm not strong, who can feel sorry for me?"

Overnight, she seemed to have matured a lot.

Maybe it wasn't overnight, but the days she married Geng Chengyu, she forced herself to mature a lot.

"Niya..."

Geng Chengyu raised his hand to hold Ni Ya's shoulder, but finally put it down.

"Birth, old age, illness and death are a natural law that no one can escape."

"I know, so I figured it out. I just want to be with my dad every day until the day he closes his eyes peacefully."

Ni Ya turned around and looked at Geng Chengyu with cold eyes, "You can go back. There is no need to come here. We don't even have a marriage certificate, so you don't have to be burdened to me."

"Niya, even if a common friend is sick, I should come and visit him, especially since he is your father."

Geng Chengyu didn't like Ni Ya's attitude. She smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for coming to visit my dad. You can go."

"you……"

Geng Chengyu was a little angry. Ni's father was ill and Ni Ya was in a bad mood. He could not argue with her.

"Okay, I'll leave first. If you need my help, just ask."

Geng Chengyu left. He stayed to see Ni Ya's cold face, which was unnecessary.

He has a clear vision of life and death.

Whether it's the death of parents or Mao Jing's death.

Everyone will reach this point eventually.

Ni Ya squatted on the ground, hugged her knees, bit her lip, and cried silently.

She didn't want to be covered in thorns, but she was so upset that she couldn't control herself.

Geng Chengyu walked to the hospital bed and said to Ni's father, "Ni Ya is very stubborn, let her go. Let her stay here with you."

"Oh, that girl..."

Father Ni sighed and looked at Geng Chengyu, "I know I can't delay it for a few more days, so I will leave Ni Ya to you. She is a kind and good child, and I hope you can treat her well. Can you do it?"

This was the answer that Ni's father didn't get at the wedding, and now he asked again.

Geng Chengyu looked deeply, for a long time, then nodded, "Okay."

"Thank you, I can rest assured."

A relieved smile appeared on Ni's father's face. Ni Ya was his treasure. He could no longer protect her, so he could only ask Geng Chengyu.

"I'm going to get busy first."

Geng Chengyu glanced at the kitchen, turned and left the ward.

Ni Ya waited until she no longer wanted to cry, then wiped away her tears, washed her face, and returned to the bedside.

"Niya, dad wants to take a nap now, you should also take a nap."

Ni's father didn't want Ni Ya to waste time with him, so he deliberately closed his eyes even if he wasn't sleepy at all.

"Okay, I'll just lean on the sofa for a while."

Ni Ya tucked in Father Ni's quilt and sat on the sofa.

Her eyes were already sore, so she leaned on the sofa and fell asleep within a few minutes.

Ni's father opened his eyes and looked sideways at Ni Ya, tears falling down his cheeks.

He also couldn't let go of Ni Ya, but he couldn't defeat the God of Death.

…

manor

Maomao clamored to see Ni Ya, "Grandpa Housekeeper, where has mom gone? I haven't seen her for a few days. Does she not want me anymore?"

"Maomao, that's not the case."

The housekeeper comforted Maomao, "My wife's father is sick, and she is taking care of him in the hospital."

"Then can I go to the hospital to see her?"

Maomao took the housekeeper's hand and said, "I miss my mother."

"this……"

The housekeeper hesitated, Geng Chengyu did not agree, and he did not dare to take Maomao to the hospital rashly.

"Grandpa Butler, let's go to the hospital quickly."

Maomao pulled the housekeeper out and happened to meet Geng Chengyu walking into the main room.

"Dad, you are back! Take me to the hospital to see my mother!"

Maomao happily hugged Geng Chengyu's legs. Geng Chengyu shook his head and refused, "You don't have to go, just wait at home."

"Why? Mom hasn't been back for several days. I miss her so much."

Maomao pursed his lips, looking aggrieved.

"Maomao, be obedient. Mom is in a bad mood right now. Don't bother her."

Geng Chengyu stroked the top of Maomao's hair and called the housekeeper, "Take him to the room upstairs to stay."

"yes."

The housekeeper took Maomao upstairs. Maomao was not happy, but when he saw that Geng Chengyu looked ugly, he did not dare to make any more noise.

Geng Chengyu sat on the sofa and frowned.

The housekeeper came down, walked up to Geng Chengyu, and asked, "Sir, does your wife need my help with anything?"

"No."

Geng Chengyu shook his head, "Father Ni doesn't have many days left. Ni Ya is with him in the hospital and won't be back for a while. Please calm down Maomao."

"OK."

The housekeeper pursed his lips and looked at Geng Chengyu, "Sir, my wife is a good woman, but I didn't expect that her mother passed away many years ago, and now her father will also pass away. She is very sad, so you should spend more time with her."

"I know."

Geng Chengyu nodded. He wanted to comfort Ni Ya, but she didn't seem to need it.

Maomao relies on Ni Ya very much, but in this situation, he will naturally not let the child bother her.

"Sir, my wife's experience is actually very similar to yours. You two should be able to relate to it."

The housekeeper boldly said this, "The death of the old man and his wife was a big blow to you. Later you gradually looked away. Now my wife has also encountered this obstacle. No matter how much you don't like her, you should do it."

Give her more comfort at this time."

Geng Chengyu looked at the housekeeper, "Butler, am I treating Ni Ya badly?"
