On that special night, 27-year-old Ding Yizhou was spending his life peacefully when suddenly he saw a message from a stranger asking for help in QQ space. Clicking on it, the sender's space is filled with despair and sadness, and she says that she has been diagnosed with terminal "penguin disease" and has only five years left to live.
Ding Yizhou looked at this familiar face, it turned out to be his high school classmate Lai Min. In her memories, Lai Min was an optimistic and cheerful girl who always took the initiative to help classmates like him who were not doing well in their studies.
Now it seems that she has suffered a major change. Ding Yizhou felt a shock in his heart. Instinctively, he wanted to help Laimin, so he immediately sent her a message asking where she was.
Knowing that she was in a neighboring city, Ding Yizhou drove there without hesitation and bought a large bouquet of flowers along the way.
Ding Yizhou resolutely went against his mother's wishes this time, and he moved to a new residence with Lai Min. At the beginning, the days were very difficult, Ding Yizhou did odd jobs outside during the day, and took care of Lai Min's daily life at night.
Lai Min's condition is getting worse and worse, and sometimes Ding Yizhou will be awakened by her painful moans, and his heart is extremely painful. However, when he saw Lai Min's smile in the sun, all the exhaustion was swept away.
He pushed Lai Min's wheelchair and took her to the park for a walk, enjoying the warmth of the sun.
Ding Yizhou quit his formal job in order to take care of Lai Min wholeheartedly, but life became more and more difficult. In the face of Lai Min's apology, Ding Yizhou said firmly: "I will not give up on you, I will accompany you through this life."
Let's go out for a walk, and I'll take you on my back to tour the country and let you fulfill all your heart's desires in your lifetime. ”
They began their spiritual journey, early in the morning of the day of departure, Ding Yizhou carried the weak Lai Min on his back, and their first stop was the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. They ran around on the road, eating and living across provinces, and Ding Yizhou earned his travel expenses by cutting people's hair.
The lack of oxygen on the plateau made him gasp for breath, and the desert heat made him sweat, but looking up and seeing Lai Min sleeping peacefully on his bicycle gave him the strength to keep going.
They also met a lot of well-wishers who helped them, a temple that provided free room and board, and a charity that sent new electric wheelchairs. Looking at Ding Yizhou's increasingly thin back, Lai Min's heart was full of guilt and emotion.
She has been silently praying, hoping that her life can be longer and accompany Ding Yizhou. Together, they crossed mountains and mountains and finally met at the terminal in Lhasa.
At that moment, Ding Yizhou was as excited as a child, he picked up Lai Min, circled around the Potala Palace Square, and shouted the joy of his wish coming true. When turning to the third circle, Ding Yizhou suddenly knelt down on one knee and proposed to Lai Min with a solemn expression.
He said, "I stumbled into your world and never left again. Can you marry me?I will do my best to take care of you and never give up.
Lai Min shed tears of sadness, and she whispered yes. A year later, they simply married on the same grassland. Soon, the news that Lai Min was pregnant again made them ecstatic.
Unfortunately, however, the daughter was diagnosed with the "penguin disease" gene during a prenatal check-up. They had no choice but to accept an abortion. The pain of losing a child is once again testing their will.
In order to take better care of Lai Min and for the sake of economy, they rented a house in Sichuan and opened an inn called "Luyao Starry Sky". The name "Lu Yao" was taken from their miscarriage daughter, which conveyed their grief and reluctance.
Ding Yizhou and Lai Min spend the day in the sunny courtyard, reading, basking in the sun, and then preparing a delicious dinner for their guests. Their lives are simple, but they are full of happiness.
However, the arrival of the new crown epidemic broke their peaceful life, the inn was quarantined, and business was deserted. Ding Yizhou must do everything he can to make ends meet. Lai Min's condition worsened and he was no longer able to move independently.
Ding Yizhou's struggle between running an inn, caring for the sick and doing household chores was as stressful as climbing Mount Shibor.
Ding Yizhou and Lai Min, a couple who have experienced ups and downs, welcomed their little baby "Anning" in 2019, which brought endless joy to their lives.
Looking at the warm picture of Lai Min teasing his daughter on the bed, Ding Yizhou's tired face finally showed a long-lost smile. After the epidemic ended, Ding Yizhou finally had time to take care of Lai Min and his daughter.
Although their Starry Sky Inn is located in the middle of nowhere, and business has been dull, Ding Yizhou was not discouraged. He began to work hard to make the inn an Internet celebrity check-in place, and also found apprentices to learn cooking skills, hoping to revitalize the old store.
Lai Min, who is seriously ill, has deteriorated to the extreme. Her eyes were hollow and her appetite was lost, so Ding Yizhou could only patiently feed her the nutritional paste one bite at a time. Fortunately, her daughter "Anning" inherited her mother's cheerful and lively personality, and often made Lai Min laugh.
Seeing their intimacy, the pain and anxiety in Ding Yizhou's heart will also be alleviated a little. Over the years, Ding Yizhou has experienced many vicissitudes, but he has never regretted his original decision.
On the contrary, the company of Lai Min and his daughter made him experience unprecedented happiness - he found the warmth of home.
Time flies like a white horse, Ding Yizhou and Lai Min have been together for 7 years. During this period, they experienced life and death together, and felt the impermanence of parting and reunion. Now, the flame of Lai Min's life is about to be extinguished, but Dante Yizhou has no intention of retreating, and has always fulfilled his promise to her and accompanied her to the last journey of her life.
Minmin, talk to me. As night fell, Ding Yizhou gently hugged Lai Min, trying to keep the warmth that was about to fade. Lai Min was speechless, but she tried her best to squeeze out a smile, which was enough to make Ding Yizhou burst into tears.
If it weren't for you, I would have achieved nothing, and I would have been alone. It was you who gave me the strength to live. Ding Yizhou gently stroked Lai Min's hair, and poured out his most sincere emotions in his heart word by word.
At this moment, the youthful figures of the two when they were young overlapped, and the memories were automatically projected like an old movie. They proved the power of love with a lifetime of love, and proved that life and death cannot stop a sincere heart.
Ding Yizhou vowed to pass on this promise forever, and stay with Lai Min until he was old, life and death.
