Looking at Su Xiaomeng with her eyelids drooping...it seemed she was about to fall asleep again.
"Husband... I really love you... treat me like a princess..."
After saying this, her lips moved slightly, and she fell asleep...
Yin Shixiu’s heart stirred, thinking that Princess Sherry came to the house tonight and must have had some heartfelt conversations with her.
On the surface, Princess Sherry and Prince Harry were the epitome of a loving couple, yet many gossip media stories had repeatedly highlighted the polite distance between them and the myriad of issues that couldn’t be ignored.
The public opinion of Prince Harry wasn’t great.
Perhaps after hearing Princess Sherry’s story, Xiao Meng was reminded of herself and felt a natural sense of contentment.
In this world, there are so many unhappy couples, yet countless people still rush into marriage.
Very few enter into marriage with the highest expectations without a trace of worry or fear.
Even though most people know marriage might be a trap, they still want to take a gamble, hoping to jump into a warm pit rather than a fiery one.
He and Su Xiaomeng were no different; they took a big gamble.
Betting their lives into this marriage, this relationship?
Xiao Meng’s contentment, wasn’t it also his contentment?
................
Time flew by quickly, and Su Xiaomeng and Yin Shixiu ultimately couldn’t return home for the New Year.
At the end of January, Yin Shixiu underwent the last stage of a major surgery, which was extremely precise and couldn’t afford any mistakes.
The medical team in Germany spent a full twenty hours, perfectly completing the surgery.
However, when Yin Shixiu woke up, he endured immense torment, as the damaged nerves in his legs needed time to adjust after being reconnected.
During this period, any slight movement of his legs felt like being gnawed on by countless ants.
These things, Su Xiaomeng didn’t know.
She only knew the surgery was a success, and for that, she wept with joy, knowing there was much more hope for her husband to stand up and walk like a normal person again.
Meanwhile, Su Xiaomeng also received good news, as she passed the exam in Bath.
Shuangshuang, being a clever person, could become the center of attention no matter the environment.
Even in the British Royal Kindergarten, she had become a little "star," with many friends to mingle with.
Though Prince Huang didn’t have Shuangshuang’s social skills, he had his own way of dealing with things.
He could endure loneliness, and his cool nonchalance surprisingly attracted others.
Soon, it was February.
Su Xiaomeng and Yin Shixiu hadn’t seen each other for almost three months. Before the last surgery, they maintained daily video calls, but post-surgery, they could only manage it occasionally.
Xiao Meng contemplated a trip to Munich, as the United Kingdom and Germany weren’t too far apart.
However, as soon as she proposed the idea, Yin Shixiu rejected it.
If she were to come, it would be necessary to bring the two siblings along, but Yin Shixiu didn’t want the children to see him in his current weak state.
Su Xiaomeng had no choice but to agree with Yin Shixiu.
As the days passed, it reached mid-February, and the weather in London was still quite cold. Without a down jacket, Su Xiaomeng absolutely wouldn’t go out.
Her heart was tied to her husband...
Luckily, her busy coursework left her with no extra time or energy to constantly worry about Yin Shixiu.
The news from Eric was consistently about Yin Shixiu’s improvement.
Whether in calls or video chats with Yin Shixiu, Su Xiaomeng could also sense his gradual recovery of spirit.
After mid-month, it was soon Su Xiaomeng’s birthday, February 18.
The day was no different from usual; being a Wednesday, she still had to attend classes, pick up and drop off the kids, and have dinner at home.
This day, besides being Su Xiaomeng’s birthday, was also their fourth wedding anniversary.
Early in the morning, she sent Yin Shixiu a text message, leaving a note.
One line saying, "Four years now, I love you more than before," went unanswered until the afternoon.
She knew he was undergoing rehabilitation, and during this process, he was unwilling to video call her, allowing her to witness it.
Su Xiaomeng wasn’t a fool; she knew he was afraid she would be pained by watching it.
After class, packing her books, just about to zip up her bag, a gift box was handed in front of Su Xiaomeng...
Su Xiaomeng slightly raised her eyebrows, looking up to see Shen Dawei’s somewhat awkward expression.
"Happy Birthday."
"How did you know..."
"Wasn’t this easy to find out?"
