Chapter 572 Perhaps She’ll Wake Up Soon
“Jingtang, how is my daughter? How is Rainy? I want to meet her. I have to go meet her.” Chu Lui didn’t care about his own body. Right now, he was only worried about Rainy.
Du Jingtang pressed Chu Lui back onto his bed and then sat down at one side. “Cousin, don’t worry. The little cutie’s fine already. She had long gotten past the critical state.”
“Really?” Upon hearing that his daughter was fine, Chu Lui’s tense body finally relaxed.
Then, he suddenly stood up again. “I want to go see her” No, Du Jingtang’s words didn’t put his heart at ease. He had to personally see that she was fine for him to finally feel at peace.
Du Jingtang stood up with him. He shook his head at Chu Lui and then awkwardly said, “Cousin, you can’t meet her now.”
“Why?” Chu Lui dangerously narrowed his two eyes. Wasn’t she alright already? Why couldn’t he meet her? What did Du Jingtang mean? Could he have been lying to him?
“The little cutie currently isn’t at this hospital.” Du Jingtang sighed. Of course, he wasn’t lying to Chu Lui. “The moment the little cutie had gotten past the critical state, she was transferred to Gao Yi’s hospital right away. Gao Yi was a doctor, and he wanted to take care of Rainy himself.
“Furthermore, Cousin, you’ve already been unconscious for three days and three nights.” Within those three days, many things had happened. For example, there was also that piece of news. He didn’t know how to tell him. Screw it, he took in a deep breath. He’d know when the time came for him to know.
“That’s good. With him there, I feel more at ease.” Chu Lui weakly sat back down.
Even without his existence as her biological father, his daughter would still live on perfectly fine.
It was enough as long as she was fine, really enough.
He lay back onto his hospital bed with his two hands clenched tightly. There was not a moment where he was relaxed. Du Jingtang stood by his side. This lifeless Chu Lui was also unbelievably sorrowful. A series of revenge that shouldn’t have happened and a marriage that had involved himself. Up to now, he felt an emotion that he had to let go of, despite being unable to do so.
In front of people, Chu Lui was omnipotent and almighty. However, in reality, he was actually just a lonely man.
In the other hospital, Gao Yi placed down the stethoscope from his neck. Then, he stood up and adjusted the speed of the IV drip. He lowered his head to look at Rainy who lay on the hospital bed. This was the second time that this child looked practically lifeless.
Pitiful child, how much more must you suffer?
He reached out his hand and gently placed it on Rainy’s forehead. Her forehead was covered with a bandage. Gao Yi tightly furrowed his brows. It had already been three days; she hadn’t woken up for three days.
The part that she had injured was none other than her head, her brain. He didn’t know if there were any serious aftereffects. They could only wait to find out after she woke up.
He let go of Rainy’s hand, and then he picked up a blanket from the side and covered it over Xia Ruoxin. Xia Ruoxin’s hand was holding Rainy’s small hand the entire time. For the past three days and three nights, she was practically always like this.
The sudden warmth over her body made Xia Ruoxin’s eyelids flutter open. Her extremely exhausted eyes fell onto Rainy who had yet to wake up.
“Ruoxin, let’s go eat some food, alright? You haven’t eaten anything for a day.” Gao Yi squatted down in front of her, his fingers gently caressing her face that was barely any better than Rainy’s.
Xia Ruoxin shook her head. “I’m not hungry, and I don’t feel like eating.” Rainy was in a coma right now. She didn’t have any appetite to eat. Even though Gao Yi kept saying that Rainy was already fine, that she was just tired, and that she would naturally wake up when she wanted to; she still couldn’t bring herself to stop worrying unless they could completely confirm that Rainy was going to be alright. Otherwise, she was really going to remain so uneasy and nervous.
Gao Yi sighed before saying again.
“Ruoxin, let’s go. You’re not hungry, but I’m starving. You know that I hate getting hungry. Even if you’re not hungry, could you at least eat a bit with me?” He placed his hand on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulder. She had to eat something. If she didn’t eat anything with her being in such a state of nervousness, her body was definitely not going to be able to hold out.
Xia Ruoxin lowered her head and held her daughter’s tiny hand again. The eye bags below Gao Yi’s eyes showed that he really wasn’t lying. She gently nodded her head. Indeed, recently, she had only been thinking about herself and Rainy; she hadn’t been thinking about Gao Yi. He was very tired as well. He had to take care of Rainy on one hand and take care of her in the other. Furthermore, in the hospital, many other work matters awaited him.
Gao Yi finally heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s right, we’ll go grab a bite first. Maybe later, when we get back, our little cutie Rainy will be awake.” He gently held onto Xia Ruoxin’s hand. The smile on his face was extremely heartwarming.
Xia Ruoxin nodded her head once again. She actually couldn’t bear to part with her little daughter. Rainy, wait for Mommy to come back. Mommy will definitely come back to keep you company.
“Don’t worry, I will get somebody to look after her.” Gao Yi brought Xia Ruoxin out of the room. The majority of the doctors and nurses there knew Rainy. On top of that, they were really fond of her. Actually, without him asking, they would willingly check up on Rainy at any time.
The moment the door closed, without anybody knowing, on top of the hospital bed, the little child’s eyelashes fluttered; and her fingers that were by her side twitched.
The door was opened once again, and the person that entered was a man in a black suit. His face was a sickly shade of white. As for Chu Lui, this was the first time he had gotten such a severe cold; and it was only this time that he finally understood what being sick felt like. It turned out to be more agonizing than he had imagined it would be. He was not made of iron; he was just a normal man. An ordinary man with flesh and blood who could fall sick and feel pain.
He carefully sat on Rainy’s hospital bed and placed his fingers motionlessly in the air for a very long time. He didn’t dare to touch his daughter. She looked really unwell; was it okay for him to touch her? Was it really okay?
Would it hurt her? Would it injure her?
He carefully opened his fingers and slowly caressed Rainy’s tender face. It was warm; there really was warmth to it. It was only at that moment that he finally believed that he hadn’t lost his daughter. He didn’t lose this daughter that he had painstakingly reunited with.
