Chapter 851: I’ll Stay Here With You

Su Jiu stubbornly shook her head. “No… I won’t rest until Daddy gets out tonight.”

Her father was still in mortal danger. He could leave her at any moment. Even if she tried, she wouldn’t be able to sleep.

She might as well wait here for him.

Song Xinyan took her arm. “Little Jiu, let’s wait for your father. I’ll stay here with you.”

“You don’t have to—” Su Jiu wanted her to go back and rest but Song Xinyan pouted. “You can’t refuse me. Otherwise, you’re not my friend!”

“That’s right, Little Jiu. I’ll stay with you too,” Han Siye said, raising his chin arrogantly.

Xiao Wei also nodded, indicating that he would also stay here with her.

Helpless but touched, Su Jiu sincerely said, “Thank you.”

Song Xinyan reached out and pinched her cheek. “What are you thanking me for? Why are you being so polite? Don’t be so polite. That’s too distant.”

Feeling like crying again, Su Jiu nodded. “Yes, I understand.”

The night wore on. By the second half of the night, the men couldn’t hold on. They lowered their heads and began to doze off.

As Song Xinyan had been worried about Su Jiu, she was exhausted. She fell asleep on Li Mohan’s lap.

Han Siye and Xiao Wei sat on the lounge chairs, their heads nodding. Every time they were about to fall asleep, they would immediately sit up and force themselves to wake up.

Su Jiu was also sleepy, but she could not sleep. From time to time, she would walk to the door of the ward to observe Su Shengjing. Every time, she was filled with hope. However, when she saw that he was still motionless, her heart sank again.

As dawn approached and her father showed no signs of waking up, Su Jiu’s worry and panic grew.

She hadn’t dared to tell her mother about this. If her mother found out, she probably wouldn’t be able to bear it…

Rong Si stayed by her side the entire time. Seeing that Su Shengjing was still unconscious, he reached out to ruffle Su Jiu’s hair and said in a low voice, “You’re exhausted. Take a rest! I’ll help you keep an eye on Uncle. If he wakes up, I’ll tell you immediately.”

Su Jiu still shook her head. Then her eyes reddened, and she pursed her lips. “Big Brother, will Daddy… really not wake up?”

Rong Si gathered her into his arms and gently pressed her head to his chest. “Why would he? Don’t let your imagination run wild.”

Su Jiu buried her face in his arms, her throat too sore to speak.

She closed her eyes. Her eyelashes were wet.

At that moment, the equipment in the ward suddenly beeped. The harsh sound woke everyone in the corridor.

Su Jiu hurriedly raised her head and saw that the alarm in the ward had sounded. Her heart was about to jump out of her throat!

Her mind went blank, too. She instinctively tried to reach the doctor, but the doctor and the nurse arrived quickly and rushed into the room.

Seeing that Su Shengjing’s heart had almost stopped, the doctor shouted anxiously, “The patient is dying. Resuscitate him immediately!”

The doctor quickly let go of Su Shengjing’s hospital gown and used the defibrillator to resuscitate him. Su Jiu watched as her father’s body bounced up and down with the electric shock.

At this critical moment of life and death, tears welled up in her eyes again. She choked and shouted, “Daddy, it’s me, Little Jiu. Can you hear me? Daddy, hang in there. Please keep fighting!”
