"Of course, but I’m not very good at it, could Tongtong teach me?"
Su Ge played two rounds with Tongtong to test her strength before standing up, "Tongtong is really good at playing, but your sister has other matters to attend to. Can I come visit you another day?"
"Okay." After Tongtong agreed, her eyes darted around before she gestured Su Ge to come closer with a hooking finger, "Pretty sister, come here, I have a secret to tell you."
Su Ge, amused by her cleverness, obediently leaned in. "What does Tongtong want to say?"
"When I grow up, I want to be as beautiful as pretty sister!"
The smile on Su Ge’s face suddenly stiffened.
She stared blankly at the little girl’s naive and lively face, filled with childlike innocence, and suddenly felt as if her throat was choked, unable to make a sound.
For most children, growing up is an easy thing.
But for Tongtong before her...
Su Ge sniffed and gently caressed Tongtong’s little face, "Your sister promises Tongtong, I’ll make sure you grow up and become even more beautiful than your sister."
Tongtong’s mother happened to come over with freshly arranged flowers, and upon hearing this, her tears instantly burst forth.
She set down the vase and turned to walk out.
Su Ge gently stroked Tongtong’s face a couple more times and then also got up to leave the ward.
"Doctor Su." Tongtong’s mother was waiting just outside the ward door. As soon as Su Ge emerged, she rushed over and grabbed Su Ge’s hand, "Doctor Su, I beg you, you must save my Tongtong, you must save her. This child has been unfortunate since birth, born without a father, and suffering so much following me. Just when our home conditions had improved a little, she contracted this strange disease. I beg you, you must save her, you must save my Tongtong, I don’t want her to leave me, she’s still so young, she has so much life ahead, such a long road to travel..."
Tongtong’s mother choked up and couldn’t continue speaking; she pulled Su Ge’s hand and fell to her knees.
"Ms. Wang, please calm down." Su Ge’s heart was aching, but she maintained a composed expression, "Rest assured, we will do our best to save Tongtong. We will make every effort to save her."
An eight-year-old child, still the flower of our nation. The source of this content ɪs novel★fire.net
How could she leave this world without even seeing the vast and beautiful landscapes of our country?
"Doctor Su, you’re our Tongtong’s last hope. The hospital said there was no more they could do for Tongtong. It’s only by entrusting Tongtong to you that there’s a glimmer of hope. Doctor Su, I believe in you all, I believe you have a way to save my Tongtong... my poor child..."
Ms. Wang was helped up by Su Ge, who looked through the glass on the door at the innocent and cheerful little girl inside; tears continually flowed like a breached dam.
"Ms. Wang, since you believe in us, please stop crying. Be happy and accompany Tongtong, leave the rest to us, okay?"
"Okay, okay, I believe you, I believe you will cure my Tongtong, you will definitely cure her. I won’t cry, I won’t cry anymore." Tongtong’s mother let go of Su Ge’s hand and frantically wiped her eyes.
Su Ge nodded at her and turned to leave.
Just as she turned around, she slightly raised her head.
Su Ge, you are their mother and daughter’s hope, you cannot cry.
You promised Tongtong you would let her grow up.
You must make it happen!
