Su Jiu was stunned. Then, as if a bolt of lightning had struck her from above, she immediately ran toward him. “Daddy!”
Su Shengjing did not move at all. She could not even feel his chest rising and falling. The oxygen mask was also not moving. It was as if he was no longer breathing.
Su Jiu took her father’s hand and realized how cold it was. Only his palm was slightly warm.
Her tears fell at once. She held her father’s hand tightly and said in a choked voice, “Daddy, nothing must happen to you. Don’t leave Little Jiu behind…”
At this moment, Qin Feng was already under the control of the police, but he still laughed proudly. “Hahaha, your father probably won’t be able to make it. I stabbed him several times just now, and every strike hit a vital point!”
“Shut up! You’re under arrest!” The policemen had already cuffed him. They escorted him to the police car, where they unceremoniously pushed him inside.
The other foreign men were also escorted into the police car.
Su Jiu was not in the mood to pay attention to anyone else. At this moment, she had eyes for only her father and kept calling out to him, “Daddy…”
Su Shengjing did not react as if he was really a cold corpse.
The paramedics beside Su Jiu couldn’t bear to see her tears fall. “Your father is seriously injured, child. We’ll do our best to save him. I hope he makes it.”
Su Shengjing was quickly placed on a stretcher and sent to the ambulance. Along the way, his blood dripped onto the ground, staining the ground red. Su Jiu did not let go of Su Shengjing’s hand and climbed into the ambulance.
Looking at the silent Su Shengjing, Su Jiu bent down and gently leaned her head on his chest. She did not feel his heartbeat and whimpered, “Daddy… Little Jiu is begging you. Don’t die. Don’t scare me, okay…”
Rong Si and the others got into the car and followed the ambulance.
When they arrived at the nearest hospital, ten minutes had already passed. Su Shengjing’s blood seemed to have dried up. No matter how much Su Jiu called out to him, he did not react. His hand was getting colder and colder, and the last trace of warmth in his palm seemed to have disappeared…
What do I do, Daddy…
Are you really going to leave me behind?
When she got out of the ambulance, she saw the doctors and nurses rushing Su Shengjing to the operating theater. Su Jiu, who was on the verge of breaking down, did not have the strength to chase after them. She stood rooted to the ground in a daze, her mind blank. The image of her father dying was seared into her mind.
She looked down at her hands. They were covered in her father’s slightly dried blood…
This was the first time Su Jiu had been in such a scene that she usually only saw in television dramas. She trembled at once, then as if all her strength had been sucked out, her vision darkened and she collapsed all of a sudden!
A second before she fainted, she had heard Song Xinyan’s and Han Siye’s shocked voices. She also saw Rong Si rushing toward her and his worried eyes.
In that instant, the young man’s strong hands caught her. Then he pulled her into his arms so that she wouldn’t fall to the ground.
Feeling the familiar embrace of the young man and confirming that he was the little villain, Su Jiu let him hug her. Then, she lost consciousness and fell into darkness.
“Little Jiu?!” Rong Si’s face turned pale. He immediately picked her up and rushed into the hospital.
***
Su Jiu was admitted to the ward. The doctor examined her and she was fine. She must have been so traumatized that she couldn’t take it for a moment and had fainted. She simply needed to rest for a while.
