Chapter 719: All Wanted to Transfer Hospitals
She took out her phone and called Chu Lui. Once the other end picked up, she started scolding without even asking the reason why.
“Chu Lui, you better ask that doctor to come over to see Xiang Xiang. She has a fever. Also, you better transfer hospitals for Xiang Xiang, too. No matter where Rainy is transferred to, Xiang Xiang needs to follow. If you don’t listen to me, then don’t call me Mom again.”
Once she finished talking, she angrily hung up. When she thought about Chu Xiang who was still having a fever, she clenched her teeth and went back into the ward.
Xia Ruoxin put down the phone. Actually, she accidentally took the wrong phone because Chu Lui’s and her phone were placed together. She accidentally took Chu Lui’s, and once it connected, she was scolded to no end.
She turned around and gently placed her daughter’s hair behind her ear before taking a hot towel to wipe her limbs and face and also the signs of tears. Finally, she had fallen asleep and survived for the day. She believed her daughter; her daughter was the best, and she could pull through. That fellow was doing her best, and even the doctor had said that she was well-behaved. Just like that, with perfect cooperation and no movements, she could recover as soon as possible.
“Mommy…” Rainy called out and grabbed Xia Ruoxin’s hand with her hand and placed it on her face. The child was very insecure now so she needed to have someone by her side and hold her hand.
Hence, both she and Chu Lui did not dare leave her side even by an inch and continued holding her hand. Even though they could not suffer in her place, they could still let their daughter know that she was not alone. She had her mother and her… father.
Creak. The door was pushed open slightly, and Chu Lui walked in. He first pulled open the blanket and checked on his daughter’s wound. He was very afraid that her wound would tear, and she would need another operation just like Chu Xiang.
Xia Ruoxin covered the child with the blanket and held her hand tight.
“Chu Lui?”
“Hm? What’s the matter?” Chu Lui walked over and sat in front of her.
“Your mom called earlier.”
“What did she want?” Chu Lui’s face darkened.
“She said Chu Xiang was having a fever, and she wanted Doctor Jian to go over. Also, she wanted you to help transfer Chu Xiang out of that hospital.” Xia Ruoxin told Chu Lui whatever she had heard from Song Wan.
“Don’t bother with her.” Chu Lui did not want to see Chu Xiang and temporarily Song Wan, too.
“Help her do all of that.” Xia Ruoxin gently caressed her daughter’s cheeks. It finally had some color and warmth, unlike a few days ago when it was as white as a sheet.
Chu Lui pressed his lips together and did not say a word.
“That’s my daughter’s kidney,” Xia Ruoxin said lightly. “I don’t want something to happen to my daughter’s kidney, and then she would have to harm another child. My daughter is already going through so much pain so I don’t want someone else to suffer the same.” She did not know if she was being sarcastic or vengeful. However, it was what it was.
She hoped that her daughter’s kidney could continue living in no matter whose body it was. At the very least—since it had already been transplanted, she did not want the kidney to be a dead one and had to be removed again, left to decompose, and finally thrown away or used as a sample. She did not allow any of these to happen.
She hoped her daughter’s kidney could live on even if it was in Chu Xiang’s stomach.
“I got it.” Chu Lui walked over and placed his hand on her shoulders. Xia Ruoxin could feel the wetness in his palm. She did not laugh but smiled and lowered her head to hold her daughter’s hand.
Chu Lui walked out and went to arrange everything. Not long later, Chu Xiang was transferred to the same hospital. Chu Lui gave Doctor Jian a simple request, and that was to ensure that his daughter’s kidney in Chu Xiang would continue living.
However, Chu Lui never went over to see Chu Xiang; and Song Wan did not come over to look at Rainy.
At night, when Xia Ruoxin woke up, she did not know how many days had passed. The light beside the bed continued to shine, and Chu Lui was still sitting beside the bed, holding his daughter’s hand tightly. From time to time, he would place his hand on her forehead to check if she had a fever. The critical period of forty-eight hours had been over, and Rainy was recovering day by day, even though the wound still hurt.
However, it was unavoidable since there was such a huge hole in her stomach, and something that should not be taken was removed; something that could not grow again—a kidney. Yet, she was too little to know about it.
Xia Ruoxin walked over and squatted in front of her daughter’s bed.
“Was she this obedient when she was young?” Chu Lui asked Xia Ruoxin, his voice coarse. From this angle, one could see that his eyes were bloodshot; and there were obvious eye bags under his eyes.
“Yeah, she has always been this obedient.” Xia Ruoxin touched her daughter’s forehead. It was surprising that the two could have such a peaceful moment together. Four years ago, he viewed her as a threat in his life and wanted to remove her. Four years later, she was cold as ice to him and treated him like a stranger. Right now, both of them were sitting together and reminiscing about their daughter’s early years.
It was an undeniable and unchangeable fact that this child was their daughter.
Chu Lui held his daughter’s hand tightly again, and his face darkened. “Ruoxin, thank you for letting me have this daughter. Also, sorry… for the past.”
“It’s over.” Xia Ruoxin stood up and did not want to say much. There were some things that even she could not understand so it was better to leave it as it was first. They could talk about it again when Rainy was better. She lay on the other sickbed and allowed Chu Lui to look after Rainy. This was his daughter, and he was really, very protective of her.
…
“Rainy, you’re so obedient.” Xia Ruoxin fed her daughter again. Rainy opened her small mouth and ate it in one bite before smiling sweetly at her mother. After suffering the worst day, she had been recovering day by day; but she still did not know what had happened to her.
“Mommy, what illness does Rainy have?” She asked her mother while there was still food in her mouth. “Uncle said that he would take out something from Rainy. Something that could grow out, right?”
Xia Ruoxin’s hand quivered before she fed another mouthful of rice to her daughter.
“Mommy?” Rainy saw that her mother did not reply so she tugged on Xia Ruoxin’s clothes. “Is it? Is it?”
“Yeah.” Xia Ruoxin fed another mouth to her daughter. “It’ll grow out if you eat properly. Also, don’t touch your belly. There’s a wound there; you need to wait until it has recovered.”
“Okay.” Rainy nodded her head. In the past—if she fell down, her mother would give her medicine. As long as she stayed still, she would recover in no time.
