Chapter 571 - The Child was Fine (1/2)
However, Chu Lui simply pulled away Du Jingtang's hand. ”When she was sick, I didn't save her. Right now, I have to save her. Even if I have to use up all the blood in my body.” He looked back, glancing at Xia Ruoxin with a complex look in his eyes before giving her a comforting smile.
”Ruoxin, I will definitely save her. Don't worry. I will definitely save her.”
After he finished speaking, he followed the nurse into the emergency room; and the doors closed once again. Xia Ruoxin had long been sitting on the resting chair, without any strength left in her. By the time Gao Yi had rushed over, Xia Ruoxin had this lifeless look on her face. She didn't even bat an eye; she just looked forward in a daze. Her pale lips continuously moved in small motions—seemingly saying something, yet seemingly not.
”Ruoxin…” He hastily walked over, tightly hugging Xia Ruoxin who practically about to break down.
”Gao Yi, What should I do? What should I do? Rainy was covered in blood. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't stop the bleeding…” 'She was bleeding the entire time.' Xia Ruoxin repeated her words like a broken recorder.
”It'll be fine, it'll be fine. Don't worry. The doctor will save her. She was so well-behaved. There's no way she would let her mother cry over her.” Gao Yi tightly hugged Xia Ruoxin who couldn't stop trembling. Her eyes were also extremely red.
He lifted his head and stared at the door of the emergency room. He had an urge to barge in himself, but he couldn't. He could only sit there and accompany Xia Ruoxin, waiting for news on Rainy.
He believed that Rainy was going to be fine. She was definitely going to be fine. She had already been through so many hardsh.i.p.s and recovered from such a severe illness. She was definitely going to be fine. She was only three-years-old; she hadn't even gotten through her fourth birthday. She was still too young, really too young. Furthermore, he was just about to marry Xia Ruoxin, and she was their flower girl. Without her, who was going to be their flower girl?
”Rainy…” Xia Ruoxin's lips couldn't stop quivering. Her unbelievably chapped lips only mumbled that name.
Whereas, at that moment, in the emergency room, Chu Lui's face was almost pale. There were also drops of perspiration on his forehead.
”Sir, we cannot draw any more blood from you. Otherwise, your body wouldn't be able to take it,” said the nurse, feeling a little troubled. From the looks of it—if they continued drawing blood from him, he was going to faint. However, the child still needed blood right now—urgently.
”It's alright, just continue.” Chu Lui sat up slightly and reached out his arm. The first time, he didn't give his bone marrow to his daughter. This time, he was going to give her his blood. He had never doted on her and never loved her. He was definitely going to save her… even if it meant drawing out all the blood from his body.
”Save my daughter. As long as you save her…” Chu Lui's hoarse voice spoke. His body hadn't fully recovered. That was why right then, even saying a word seemed evidently tough for him.
The nurse hesitated for a moment before finally pulling his hand over again. Chu Lui didn't care whether his warm blood flowed out or not. His chapped lips, however, had an extremely warm touch of loneliness.
He could finally do something for his daughter.
He dug his fingers forcefully into his palm, stopping himself from fainting just like that. He had to push on; he had to know that his daughter was alright. That's why he couldn't fall over just like that. He was a father. He had to help his daughter fight for a higher chance of survival.
Another bag of blood. His lips were already so dark that there wasn't any color to it, whereas his face—it was already as white as a sheet. He sat there, forcefully opening his eyes and not letting himself lose consciousness.
…
”Sir, everything's fine already. Your daughter's surgery is very successful. She's not going to die. You can be at ease.” The nurse ran in front of Chu Lui, knowing what Chu Lui wanted to hear the most. Upon hearing the doctor say that the child was alright, she hurried over right away. At that moment, Chu Lui opened his eyes widely; and she knew that he was pushing himself to hold on.
