Cathy, "Why do you have to say that. We are looking for a way to start your chemo, and maybe this cancer can be stopped and prolong your health and life".
Xiao, "Dajie, I know I don't have much time. I just to ask you if you can take care of my child and raise Zhan as your child. I have little money still in my account. This is the card and pin. My last wish is that he can get educated and take revenge for his father's death. Do remind him always that his life goal is to be like his father. I have written 18 separate letters for him for his 18 birthdays. Give him each one for each birthday. In these letters, I wrote down all the things that he should know about me and his father. Please Dajie, I hope you can take care of my Zhan and never let him live like an orphan. I have been there, and I know how it feels when you have no one in this world for anything."
Cathy with her wet eyes, "you silly girl, why you had to do so much. I promise to take care of him as my son and get him the best education I could so he could grow up to be successful like his father. I will give him all these letters as you have said. But still, now, we must leave no stone unturned for your treatments. I would be happier if you can give him all these letters and take care of him with me."
Xiao while tightly hugging Zhan and crying, "Dajie, we all have wishes, but it is not necessary that those wishes would come true. My wish was also to see my Zhan grow up to be like his father, a successful man but I could not. So, I will leave him in your care and hope you can fulfill this last wish of your sister."
Cathy, "You silly, don't worry, I won't let you have anything, and I would fulfill your promise. Now go to sleep, you also need your rest. Tomorrow, I will take you to the hospital for another checkup.".
Cathy got up and left to sleep on her bed. She kept watching both the mother and son and kept on thinking about what has God planned for them. A girl, who is not even in her thirty, has been thrown from the golden house to this shanty town and the child, who should be the heir to the multi-billion corporation, is living with used clothes. On top of all that, Xiao has been diagnosed with the last stage of cancer and there is no guarantee if she would be able to live until the next moment as well.
While thinking all this, Cathy never knew when she slept and was woken up by the cries of Lin Zhan. She waited a few minutes thinking that Xiao will wake up to tend to his needs but when it turned more than a few minutes and Lin Zhan still cried, Cathy got up from her bed. She picked Zhan up and gave her voice to Xiao. "Xiao, wake up, Zhan seems hungry and needs to be fed". "Xiao'er!" "Xiao'er". After calling her name a few times, Cathy went ahead to shake Xiao up. She shook Lin Xiao a few times but when there was no response, she felt something was not right.
Cathy hurriedly put Zhan down and came to check Xiao. She took her arm to check her pulse but was instantly shocked when she didn't find any pulse on her. She again checked her neck and was confirmed that Lin Xiao died in her sleep.
