The Rest of My Life, Please Be in Your Care

55-year-old Li Mingyuan, director of orthopedics at the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, and 53-year-old Wang Shufen, director of pediatrics at Mudanjiang Medical College Affiliated Hospital, are both medical elites who graduated from Harbin Medical University. They fell in love at first sight in college but endured a thirty-year long-distance marriage. The heavy pressure of caring for the elderly and children followed: their grandson had allergies, Li Mingyuan suffered from hypertension, coronary heart disease, and bilateral knee osteoarthritis, Wang Shufen was diagnosed with glomerulonephritis and breast cancer, and their four elderly parents were also seriously ill. Exhaustion and misunderstandings led to a peaceful divorce. After the divorce, they each struggled with elder care and life's hardships. Wang Shufen hid her illness and underwent chemotherapy alone until a liver mass was found, bringing her to the brink of death. Li Mingyuan traveled thousands of miles to stay by her bedside. They opened their hearts, revealing the reluctance and concern behind the divorce, and remarried. Thereafter, they faced medical disputes, hospital violence, anti-corruption in healthcare, and medical insurance inspections together, fearlessly went to Wuhan to fight the pandemic, donated bone marrow for a sick graduate student, and helped opposing relatives. With benevolence protecting lives and dedication building monuments, this middle-aged couple found new life in career and family.
