Chapter 394: I Don’t Want Mommy to Die
Li Beijue caught a glimpse of him and saw his eyes brimming with tears, his face on the verge of crying. He couldn’t help but clench his fists tightly.
His back stiffened, and he suddenly squatted down, his hands resting on Baby Chi’s shoulders, his noble face betraying a hint of despondency. Looking into Chi Jingchen’s eyes, his thin lips barely touched as he said, “I’m sorry.”
Si Chen and Huo Leiting were as if they had heard something unimaginable.
They looked at each other in disbelief.
Beijue had actually apologized, and to a 5-year-old child at that.
Chi Jingchen had been holding back his tears, but upon hearing the apology, he burst into tears, throwing himself into his arms. Grasping at his clothes, he cried heart-wrenchingly, “Will my mommy die? Mommy won’t die, right?”
“I don’t want my mommy to die… I don’t want…”
“Wuuu, I’ll be good from now on, I won’t call her ‘woman’ anymore. I’ll behave, I won’t cause trouble… I don’t want Mommy to die…”
Chi Jingchen’s cries were heartbreaking, creating a heavy pressure in Li Beijue’s chest. He punched the ground so hard that he left a bloody imprint on the floor. It was as if he didn’t feel the pain, as he hugged the little boy’s shoulders and brought him into his embrace, “No, she won’t. She won’t be in trouble.”
Because he wouldn’t allow it!
He absolutely wouldn’t allow her to die!
If she dared to die, he would freeze her body and even if it meant cloning her from brain cells, he would make her come back to life!
“Wuuu…” Chi Jingchen clutched at his clothes, gasping for breath between sobs, “I’m scared… I’m afraid…”
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
The red light at the Operating Room turned to green.
The tightly closed door opened, and a doctor with blood-stained gloves stepped out.
Chi Jingchen had stopped crying, and, just like him, he was holding back his sobs, his large eyes filled with longing as he looked at the doctor. He was desperate to ask the doctor about the situation but felt as if an acupressure point had been hit, rendering him unable to speak a word.
Li Beijue took a quick step forward, grabbing the doctor by the collar with a grim look on his handsome face, “How is she?”
The doctor, nearly suffocating under his grip, struggled to tiptoe for a breath and said anxiously, “The surgery was very successful, and she can be transferred to the care ward right away.”
“Are you saying she’s out of danger now?” Li Beijue couldn’t describe his feelings at that moment; his heart, compressed to the extreme, seemed to suddenly find relief, and that deadly suffocation vanished.
Thank goodness, Chi Enen was alright.
The doctor remarked, “Yes, she’s out of life-threatening danger now. It’s a miracle, really. The patient has numerous injuries all over her body, but very few that could endanger her life. It must be that the patient tried her best to protect herself in that situation. Also, the patient had a strong will to live. Because of these two factors, the patient was able to pull through so quickly. However, her left knee is quite severely injured, and we can only know more about her condition after she wakes up and undergoes a further medical checkup…”
Before the doctor could finish, Li Beijue had already let go of him and burst into the Operating Room—
“Hey, family members can’t enter the Operating Room…” The doctor’s voice had hardly fallen when someone wrapped an arm around his shoulder.
Turning his head, he saw Si Chen holding his shoulder, looking baffled, “Young Master Si?”
Si Chen, grinning like a fox, wrapped his arm around the doctor’s shoulder, immobilizing him, and said, “Now now, Doctor Luo, just make an exception this once.”
