Chapter 1258: Chapter 1258: Let Her Stay With You (Part 7)
Xiu Xi followed orders with a heavy heart, but Ruan Jiaojiao still felt terrible, struggling to breathe, and desperately pulling at her chest.
She felt like she might die, that she really might die.
Weakly leaning against Xiu Xi, her head felt too heavy to lift, fear mingled with despair, and tears trickled down the corners of her eyes.
Never before had she felt the threat of death so clearly, nor her own fear of it.
By the ti the car arrived at the hospital, her consciousness was already fading.
She felt as if she was being lifted, with many people bustling around her, the noise overwhelming.
She tried hard to lift her head, wanting to open her eyes and recognize her surroundings, but she couldn’t clearly see the faces in front of her.
Vaguely, she sensed Shu Jiao holding her hand, a warm touch landing on her face.
Despairingly, she gazed at that blurry figure, pleading unconsciously: “Mom, I can’t breathe, save , save …”
“Brother Xiu, I feel so terrible, I’m really in pain…”
“Grandma, grandma, Jiaojiao is unwell, Jiaojiao is unwell, not feeling well…”
“…”
They say that in their weakest monts, people always call out to those closest and most trusted.
And Ruan Jiaojiao’s series of unconscious cries for help was no different than a heart-wrenching pain for those she called out to.
Watching Ruan Jiaojiao being wheeled into the ergency room, still desperately clinging to her for help, Shu Jiao was nearly overwheld with heartache.
Xiu Xi followed into the ergency room, refusing to leave no matter how much the doctors insisted, while at this mont, Ruan Jianguo managed to stay composed, holding the nearly collapsing Shu Jiao with one arm, and solemnly telling the doctors, “Let him in, if anything happens, we will take responsibility.”
When the Ruanlin Family and Zhao Li arrived at the hospital after receiving the call, Ruan Jiaojiao had already been in the ergency room for over half an hour.
“Sister-in-law, what on earth happened? You didn’t explain on the phone. What exactly is wrong with Jiaojiao?” Zhao Li asked as she walked in.
When Ruan Jianguo had called ho, she had just been at the Ruan Family house. Ruan Jianguo only ntioned that Ruan Jiaojiao was in the ergency room, nothing else. She didn’t understand; Jiaojiao had been fine just yesterday, so how had she suddenly ended up in the ergency room? Along the way, Ruanlin Family also wore a heavy expression.
But Shu Jiao only cried and shook her head, clinging to Ruanlin Family’s hand, heartbreakingly repeating the words Ruan Jiaojiao said before entering the ergency room: “She asked to save her, she asked to save her, Mom… Jiaojiao asked to save her!”
Yet she was powerless!
If she could, she’d trade her life for hers!
Hearing Shu Jiao’s words, how could Ruanlin Family not feel heartbroken as well?
But before they could respond, the doctor’s office door behind them opened.
As if anticipating their presence there, Aunt Liu looked emotionlessly at the tear-streaked Shu Jiao, her voice dripping with sarcasm: “Shu Jiao, Madam always said you’d regret this, but you chose not to believe it. Without Madam, the young miss can’t survive either.”
“Why?”
“The young miss was originally brought back by Madam after many years of prayer and vegetarianism. Without the young miss, she can’t live.” Aunt Liu stepped forward, looking at Shu Jiao: “Madam doesn’t have much ti left. If you let take the young miss now, she might still have a chance. Otherwise, all you’ll receive is a cold, lifeless body… mmm…”
