Kang Chen's heart ached fiercely, and he suddenly did not dare to look into Ming Mei's eyes; he was afraid of seeing disappointment in them, scared that Ming Mei would realize the collapse after losing their child.
Kang Chen's throat felt dry as he moved it, and he reached out to touch Ming Mei's cheek, "Don't be afraid, you're awake now. Does it still hurt?"
Ming Mei nodded: "It hurts."
Ming Mei's hand was placed on her heart, saying, "It hurts here."
In that moment, Kang Chen's eyes nearly overflowed with sour tears, his hand trembling faintly as he struggled to smile, but his smile looked uglier than crying.
Kang Chen whispered, "Let's have the doctor take a look, it will stop hurting soon."
Ming Mei's eyes held a vacant look as she said, "I know, it's incurable... it will never get better."
Kang Chen didn't know what to say for a moment; he couldn't think of anything more to say.
