Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Chapter 226: 226 Her daughter is still alive (4)_1

Toward the end, as Che Huan thought about how she’d made it through the past five years, she burst into tears and brought her hand up to cover her mouth.

Suddenly, a sharp pulse appeared on the heart monitor, emitting a beeping alarm sound.

Che Huan heard it, set the microphone down, pressed the call bell, then turned and walked to the door. Upon opening it, she saw Gu Yunping standing anxiously at the entrance.

Her eyes reddened, she spoke, ”I don’t know if it’s okay now, but I’ve already pressed the call bell for the doctor.”

Does this mean Jizhou is responding?

Gu Yunping, filled with excitement, said, ”Huanhuan, thank you.”

Che Huan looked at Gu Yunping, with no mood for pleasantries, ”Where is the restroom?”

Gu Yunping, completely oblivious to Che Huan’s expression, happily directed her to the restroom, ”Huanhuan, don’t leave just yet. In case something else happens to Jizhou, he might need you.”

Che Huan didn’t respond, feeling a stifling anxiety in her chest, as she quickly walked in the direction of the restroom.

Gu Yunping saw the doctor coming and followed.

The doctor entered the ICU ward and closed the door.

Gu Yunping, blocked outside, anxiously peered in that direction and called Huo Jinyun, ”Ayun, Jizhou is responding.”

”Really? Grandpa and I will come up right now,” Huo Jinyun said excitedly.

”Not yet, Che Huan hasn’t left yet, and I’m afraid that if something happens to Jizhou again, her presence might help him. I’ll call you once there’s any new update,” he said.

After ending the call, Gu Yunping anxiously awaited outside.

Half an hour later, the doctor finally came out, happily announcing, ”Mr. Gu, the patient has opened his eyes. The situation is still unstable, but he has resumed independent breathing. We need to observe him for another hour.”

”Thank you, Dr. Zhao!” Gu Yunping clasped the attending doctor’s hand, shaking it repeatedly.

The doctor paused, then went to the observation room and didn’t see anyone, ”Who just visited the patient? Let her spend more time with him, it should help his recovery significantly.”

Gu Yunping gradually calmed down, ”Dr. Zhao, I understand.”

After watching the doctor leave, he looked towards the restroom.

Che Huan had already been in there for quite a while, why hadn’t she come out yet?

Fearing a sudden emergency with Jizhou, he did not dare to leave, staying in the viewing room and staring at the monitoring screen, tremblingly lifting the microphone, ”Jizhou...”

Gu Jizhou lay on the hospital bed, his chest rising and falling. Had he really made a mistake all these years?

He never knew that on their wedding day, her near miscarriage was because his mother had locked her out in the cold.

The next day, when he arrived at the hospital, his first words were, ”If it can’t be saved, then let it be.”

But when he lowered his head and saw the cell phone by the bed, with its lurid video, he panicked and noticed that the woman lying in the bed was very frail, with not a trace of color in her face!

...

Closing his eyes, he didn’t want to recall that scene anymore!

If given another chance, what would he do?

Probably end up with the same outcome, right?

Now that he had completely divorced her, cleanly cut off without any ties, suddenly he couldn’t breathe...

Lying there, his face turned ashen, her last words echoed continuously in his ears—

”Just lie there peacefully. One of these days, I’ll marry your uncle and make you call me auntie!”

...

And so, deprived of all senses except hearing, there was nothing but her last sentence, over and over, cruelly tormenting his fragile sense of hearing!
