That would be terrifying!
Not to mention Qianxun would never forgive me, I would hate myself as well.
It was such a short distance, how could I not save her?
Jiujiu is her life and soul. If anything happens to Jiujiu, sheâd be devastated.
Luckily, this time Jiujiu is unharmed, and even if he had been hurt, it would have been worth it.
With that thought, he clenched his hands around the square towel. He canât allow anyone of them to get hurt, he needs to protect them, thatâs his main duty for the rest of his life.
"But, I guess itâs a blessing in disguise. A little pain, but I got to hear you call me âDadâ, itâs all worth it." Gu Liancheng smiled satisfactorily.
"Are you really that happy..." Jiujiu murmured.
After all, he is his dad.
"Yes, definitely yes!"
Just as happy as when Cute finally learned to call him âDadâ.
"Itâs just a pity, I didnât accompany you as you grew up," he said, adding, "but as you said, thereâs always time in the future."
"If it had been Eleven standing there, would you also have saved her?"
"Of course." Saving Jiujiu was an instinctual, body reflex. They all share the same place in his heart, therefore he believes, no matter who stood there, he would rush over without any hesitation.
While re-wetting the square towel, Jiujiu reached inside, snatched it, and wrung it dry, saying, "Your hand is not convenient."
His right hand was injured and he had wrung it dry single-handedly before.
What Gu Liancheng didnât expect was that Jiujiu wasnât wiping for himself, but held the towel to his face, wiping away the dirt, warming him up like a tiny sun.
"Go get checked out at the hospital. What if it was internal injury like Big White said?"
"Okay," he obediently nodded his head, "I understand, I will go to the hospital for a check-up."
Gu Liancheng left to get water, and when he came back, he saw that Jiujiu had wiped his eyes.
This kid...
Couldnât be crying, could he?
"Jiujiu?"
He bent down to take a closer look, sure enough, both eyes were red.
"Whatâs wrong? Are you hurt anywhere?"
In the next moment, the little guy suddenly flung himself into him, clinging tightly to his neck and sobbing.
Gu Liancheng was flustered by his hug.
He then noticed that Jiujiu wasnât hurt, but was probably startled by what happened earlier, right?
Anyone would be scared by something like that, let alone a child.
Thinking of this, Gu Liancheng gently patted his back to comfort him, "Itâs okay, itâs okay, nothing happened, and nothing will happen in the future. As long as you remember, whenever youâre in danger, dad will show up like a superhero!"
Moved for three seconds, Jiujiu suddenly let go of him, complaining slightly, "Why such an idiotic line?"
"..."
...
"Eleven, why are we going to the hospital?"
After dinner, Eleven first took Cute to the city hospital.
"Are you sick?"
"No, youâll know it soon."
Cute went into a doctorâs office with Eleven and sat quietly beside her.
The doctor said, "As of now, the baby is very healthy and there are no problems. Maintain your current status, eat more nutritious food, donât overwork yourself during pregnancy, rest well, if anything comes up, let your husband handle it, understood?"
