When Joey rushed to the hospital, his father was working in the emergency room.
She forced herself to walk to the prison guard, her voice trembling.
"How is my dad?"
"We are rescuing him. We don't know what's going on inside yet. He committed suicide by cutting his wrists and lost a lot of blood. He just had a heart operation and the situation is a bit complicated."
Hearing these words, Joey staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
The prison guard immediately grabbed her and said with concern: "Miss Qiao, don't worry, an expert came in just now. I think Mr. Qiao will be fine."
Joey held back his emotions and kept tears from falling. He looked at the prison guard and asked, "How did my father commit suicide?"
The prison guard hesitated and said, "Mr. Qiao was in a very depressed mood yesterday and looked very bad.
We thought he had a heart attack, so we took him to the hospital for a review.
But he took advantage of the nurse's infusion and stole a glass medicine bottle.
Back in prison, he smashed a glass bottle in the toilet and committed suicide by slitting his wrists.
When we found him, there was a pool of blood on the ground and Mr. Qiao was unconscious. "
Hearing these words, Joey felt dizzy.
She probably guessed the reason why her father committed suicide.
He couldn't bear to let her sell her body to give him his freedom.
But who told him this?
At this moment, the door to the emergency room opened.
Joey immediately stood up and stumbled over.
"Doctor, how is my dad?"
The doctor took off his mask and said: "The patient suffered a secondary infection during heart surgery, and suffered excessive blood loss. He is still in a coma and is not out of danger. He needs to be sent to the intensive care unit.
His survival consciousness is weak now and he cannot be stimulated by any means. Please pay attention to your family members. "
Joey nodded calmly, "Okay, I know."
She watched her father being wheeled into the intensive care unit by medical staff.
I watched the doctor add many instruments to his body.
Joey's whole body collapsed.
She slowly squatted on the ground, buried her face in her knees, and her body shook uncontrollably.
She had never been so scared.
She had never been so worried even when her father was in the heart operating room.
Because she believes that the current medical equipment is so advanced that the operation will be successful.
But now, my father committed suicide.
If he voluntarily gives up his desire to live, he really won't be able to come back.
Just when she was heartbroken, there were rapid footsteps in the corridor.
Joey slowly raised his head, and what he saw was Lu Wenzhou, dressed in black, walking towards her with a solemn expression.
The two people's eyes met in the air.
In an instant, the tight string in Joey's heart broke.
The tears that had been in his eyes slid down his cheeks.
Seeing her like this, Lu Wenzhou felt as if someone had stabbed him in the heart, and blood was pouring out.
He took a few steps quickly, hugged her into his arms, and kept caressing her head with his big hands.
His voice was low and hoarse: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Tears were streaming down Joey's face, and each drop fell on Lu Wenzhou's brand new shirt.
Her voice was almost hoarse: "Lu Wenzhou, you promised me that as long as I obey, you would keep my father safe.
But why did something happen to him?
If he really can't wake up, I will never forgive you in this life! "
She spoke so loudly that she almost collapsed.
Her father is the one she depends on for her life.
He is also the one who holds her in the palm of his hand and loves her.
If he really left, Joey didn't know how he would face his future life alone.
Lu Wenzhou had never seen Joey like this before.
He held her tightly and whispered comforting words.
"Joy, calm down. I've found the best experts to save him. I won't let him leave you."
Joey kept sobbing: "Lu Wenzhou, my dad would not commit suicide for no reason, someone must have told him about our current relationship.
If I find out, no matter who it is, I will not let her go. "
She was so distraught that she couldn't breathe.
But there was a rare fierceness in those tearful eyes.
Lu Wenzhou lowered his eyes and gently wiped her tears with his cold fingertips. His voice was a little hoarse: "Don't worry, I will find out about this matter and give you an explanation. Stop crying."
He had never felt this way.
That feeling of struggling with the fear of losing something.
He knew very clearly that if something happened to Joe's father, he would no longer have an excuse to tie Joey around.
At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, which was to hold Joy tightly and not let her leave his side.
While the two were hugging each other, the doctor came out of the ICU.
"The patient's survival consciousness is weak now. Your family members can go in and talk to him and try to find topics he likes.
The earlier you wake up, the better for stabilizing your condition. "
Joey quickly wiped away his tears and said, "Okay, I know, I'll go in now."
Lu Wenzhou was about to follow behind him, but was blocked by her.
"My dad can't stand any stimulation, you are not allowed in."
"I won't say anything, I'll just stay with you."
He had never spoken to anyone so lowly.
He just wanted to be by her side, and he just wanted Father Qiao to wake up as soon as possible.
Maybe even he himself doesn't know why he does this.
The two people put on sterile clothes and came to Qiao's father's bedside.
Joey held his father's hand, hot tears falling on the back of his hand.
“Dad, you once promised me that you would never leave me alone in this life, why do you keep your word?
Do you know that if you leave, my home will be completely gone, and no one in this world will love me anymore.
Do you really want to be so cruel? Let me be abandoned by my mother once and then by my father.
Am I really that annoying that none of you want me? "
Thinking of all the past events, Joey lay on his father's body and sobbed quietly.
Lu Wenzhou stood beside her, gently stroking her head with his big hand.
He had lived with Joey for three years, but he never knew that Joey had such a fragile side.
She longs for family affection so much and is so afraid of being abandoned.
Lu Wenzhou never wanted to know more than now what happened to Joey in the past.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
He walked to the sterile room next to him and pressed answer.
"Mr. Lu, I found out that that woman is indeed Secretary Qiao's biological mother. She was kicked out of the house by Mr. Qiao seven years ago because of her chaotic private life.
But this incident had a great impact on Secretary Qiao. She was blocked in the classroom by her classmates' parents, their clothes were torn to pieces, and photos were taken of her.
They accused her of being as unruly as her mother and going around seducing male classmates.
This incident caused a big fuss in the school, and Secretary Qiao became a despicable woman reviled by everyone.
Later, she became seriously ill and transferred to another school.
But I couldn't find out what her illness was and where she went to school. I didn't get any new information until she was in college.
I thought those days must have been very bad, so Mr. Qiao erased all records. "
