Du Liqing looked at the unmoving father Du lying on the bed. Her eyes were sore, but she was unwilling to shift her gaze elsewhere.

Clutching his father's thin and weak hand tightly, his recent coma had long since become as thin as a stick. Even his skin had gradually lost all color.

”Dad, I'll be obedient in the future. Can you wake up quickly?”

Du Yan's green eyes became slightly moist as he touched the hand that only had bones left. The feeling was completely different from the touch of his father's hand in the past. An icy feeling spread throughout her body, causing her heart to gradually grow cold.

At this moment, Du Ruqing really hoped that her father would wake up, but she couldn't do anything about it. Even doctors were unable to treat her, and even she didn't know any medical skills. How could she wake up a person who was lying unconscious on a bed?

The bitterness in her heart caused Du Ruqing to be unable to resist reminiscing about the past few years of Father Du's existence. Her eyes suddenly became a little misty.

”Dad, all these years you have been taking care of me and the company by yourself, it has been tough for you. ”You haven't even waited for me to repay you. How can you lie here unconscious?”

Every scene in her mind was the selfless love Du Liqing had for her father. The smile and love on his face was so precious that she was filled with nostalgia at this moment.

These past few days, she had experienced the suffering that Du Ruqing had gone through in the past. Now that she experienced it one by one, she realized what was called suffering through luck. At the same time, she understood more and more about the frowning appearance of her father.

Now that he thought about it, it made Du Liqing's heart ache. His fingertip lightly touched Father Du's forehead without even the slightest crease, and at the same time, without the slightest tremble. Other than the soft sounds of breathing and heartache, she could not feel any other signs of life at all.

The tears from the corner of her eyes rolled down her fair face. She didn't know why, but she could vaguely feel a sour sensation on her nose. As long as he thought that Father Du might not wake up, Du Ruqing's grievance would immediately burst forth.

”Dad, I'm sorry, it's my fault. ”I should not have known people so well, treating a wolf as a good wolf and bringing that animal home. It was my unfilial act, unable to defeat the family business that you had been protecting for your entire life.”

Du Ruqing buried his head in the blanket and leaned on Father Du's chest. He let those tears soak the thin blanket as he sobbed softly. The existence of Sun Jiangyuan that caused the Du Family to turn into the Sun family made her feel guilty.

There was a pleading tone to her words, but she could not fall unconscious like her father. The pressure on her made it hard for her to breathe, but she had no way of escaping.

Would the others still be able to be trusted?

Du Ruqing unconsciously began questioning herself in her heart. Lu Juyan's figure suddenly appeared in her mind and instantly vanished. The corner of his lips curled up into a sneer as an unimaginable sense of anticipation filled his heart.

The variety of life made Du Liqing not know any contact. After five years of deceit and betrayal, Du Ruqing was no longer able to hand over his broken heart without any precautions.

”Dad, don't leave me here alone, okay!” The sudden change in mood caused tears to roll down his face. His sobbing voice was intermittent.
