At this moment, Xue Lixue, who had some rare free time, was binge-watching a series on her computer.
She turned her head and said, "Doudou, if there's anything making you unhappy, talk to mommy and make me happy too."
In saying so, she didn't manage to make Doudou laugh, but she ended up amusing herself immensely.
Doudou had been bouncing around on the couch, playing with Totoro, but now she was sitting there, her little feet swinging back and forth.
Wearing a troubled expression, she said, "Mommy, I'm not messing around. I'm really unhappy. I feel so uncomfortable inside, like I might not get better tonight."
She clutched her chest and collapsed onto the couch.
Xue Lixue was startled and, thinking her daughter's heart condition had flared up again, rushed over to hold her.
Doudou nestled in Xue Lixue's arms, opened her eyes, and stuck out her tongue.
