The next day, when Fu Shinian and Su Mu happily took Qiqi to visit the elderly lady, she seemed more joyful than ever. Holding Qiqi on the bed, her smile never left her face.
The elderly lady had broken her routine by going to the dining room for dinner the previous evening. Today, Fu Shinian decided not to let her exert herself anymore, although it was clear she didn't want to eat alone in the room. So, the dining area was moved to her room, a decision everyone agreed upon, and she was naturally cheerful.
After lunch, the elderly lady took a nap. Fu Shinian and Su Mu then brought Qiqi upstairs to the playroom. Watching Qiqi quietly playing dolls by herself, Su Mu's smile slowly faded. In the past, Qiqi would have been feverishly active during this time, pulling both Fu Shinian and Su Mu into her games. But now, most of her time was spent quietly.
Fu Shinian seemed to sense Su Mu's feelings. He gently patted her hand and softly said:
"It will get better."
