Chapter 779 Seamless Dad
I don’t know how many times I dialed, but someone finally answered the phone.
He Qingrong had her back to us, so I couldn't see her expression, but I heard her let out a long sigh, "...It's me, He Qingrong."
I pulled Xiao Shiqiu and quietly moved back to He Qingrong's side. In the quiet hall, I could vaguely hear the voices from the other side as I got closer.
After He Qingrong finished speaking, there was silence for a few seconds. Then a deep, middle-aged voice came from the other side: "Qingrong? We haven't been in touch for so many years. Why did you suddenly think of me today?" He then chuckled and said, "Did you know I was in City A today?"
"You're in City A?" He Qingrong suddenly became excited and cried, "Can you come to Dinghai District People's Hospital right now? I'm in the emergency room..."
Before He Qingrong could finish her words, the tone of the voice on the other side changed: "Are you in trouble? I'll be right over!"
Before He Qingrong could explain the situation, the other party hung up the phone.
I only heard two sentences and you're done? Shouldn't you just open up to each other, then cry about your daughter, and then shock the other person?
I pouted and complained in my heart, a man who is so impatient must have a bad temper!
Before He Qingrong turned around, I rushed back to Xiao Shiqiu and looked around as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Shiqiu looked at me helplessly and asked quietly, "Are you really that curious?"
I smiled slyly and said, "Aren't you curious about what the other side said?"
Xiao Shiqiu glanced at me and said softly, "She only said two sentences. What could the other party say? Either she refused decisively or she came without hesitation. But I guess she came immediately."
With stars in my eyes, I asked in admiration, "How did you know?"
Xiao Shiqiu explained to me slowly, "Think about it, if he was such a heartless person, why would he tell her he was in City A right away? He obviously wanted to meet her. It seems he still has feelings for her."
This old fox's ability to analyze problems is really amazing.
I praised him sincerely: "That's amazing! You must watch Conan a lot."
He wanted to laugh, but immediately held it back. Xiao Tiantian's life or death was uncertain, and if he laughed at this moment, it would seem too cold-blooded.
After calming down, He Qingrong took a deep breath and regained her noble and graceful demeanor. She turned and walked towards us, "He agreed to come, but I didn't have time to tell him about Tiantian. He probably thought something happened to me."
Xiao Shiqiu's eyes held an ambiguous expression, and his words were somewhat mocking. "That man is quite loyal. When he heard you were in the hospital, he rushed over without asking any questions. It seems there is still hope for you three to be reunited."
He Qingrong choked, but didn't argue anything. Her expression was a little unpredictable, and her eyes looked into the distance, as if they had lost focus.
Everyone stopped talking for a moment. I quietly pulled Xiao Shiqiu's sleeve, motioning him to sit on the seat next to me and wait.
Xiao Shiqiu nodded, put his arm around me and sat aside, but He Qingrong did not sit down. Instead, she walked to the door of the emergency hall and stared at the dark night outside without moving.
The traffic situation in City A was much better at night than during the day. In less than half an hour, a tall and thin man came hurriedly from outside. When he saw He Qingrong standing at the door, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, followed by joy.
The man raised his arms slightly, looking like he wanted to go forward and give her a hug, but he held himself back.
"Qingrong, are you okay? That's great. You're still as beautiful as you were back then." The man's tone was filled with a hint of suppressed excitement.
Unexpectedly, the man restrained the urge to meet again. He Qingrong unexpectedly looked weak and unable to take care of herself, and suddenly threw herself into his arms.
She buried her head in the man's chest and sobbed quietly, one hand still clutching his tie. The man was so anxious that he stroked her slender back with his big hand and whispered in a panic, "Qingrong, what happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly. I will definitely help you if I can."
After hearing the man say this, He Qingrong raised her head from his arms, tears still hanging on her cheeks, and her expression had a hint of broken beauty.
To be honest, He Qingrong looks really pretty when she cries. She looks more pitiful than Deng Sisi when she cries. He Qingrong is both charming and pitiful. They are really not on the same level.
Then she said softly, "You'an, please save our daughter..."
The man named Youan suddenly widened his eyes and asked, "What did you say?"
"Our daughter, Tiantian, is in danger now and needs a blood transfusion." He Qingrong looked at him with sad eyes.
"Your daughter, Xiao Tiantian, is she my daughter?" The man was a little incredulous. "Are you sure?"
He Qingrong burst into tears again. "How could I possibly lie to you at this time? If she wasn't your daughter, why would I lie to you at the cost of Tiantian's life?"
"Why did you tell me only now?" The man grabbed He Qingrong's shoulders and said excitedly, "Xiao Tiantian is my daughter? The Xiao family..."
At this moment, he saw Xiao Shiqiu standing not far away. He paused and asked, "Did the Xiao family know?"
Seeing that he had spotted us, Xiao Shiqiu pulled me over and said, "Lawyer Yuan, I never thought we'd meet under these circumstances."
Lawyer Yuan? I suddenly remembered that shady lawyer from City T, wasn't he Yuan Youan? He was actually He Qingrong's ex-boyfriend?
I began to look at Yuan Youan carefully. Although he was not as handsome as Xiao Shiqiu, he was also gentle and handsome. I guess he was also good-looking when he was young, otherwise He Qingrong would not have liked him.
But the way he looks at people now makes people feel very uncomfortable, as if he wants to see through people.
Yuan Youan's expression was a bit complicated, but he quickly put on a professional smile and extended his right hand to shake hands with Xiao Shiqiu. "Mr. Xiao, I didn't expect this either, but I'm honored to see you again."
Xiao Shiqiu didn't extend his hand, but simply said, "We don't have much of a relationship, so there's no need for such meaningless small talk. I suggest you quickly go find a nurse and explain your identity. I don't know how much longer your daughter can hold on."
Yuan Youan was a little embarrassed. He let go of He Qingrong and laughed dryly. "Mr. Xiao is right. I'll go right away." After taking a few steps, he turned back to look at Xiao Shiqiu. "Mr. Xiao, I am very grateful for your kindness in raising Tiantian over the years."
After saying that, he hurried towards the nurses' station, and He Qingrong quickly followed him.
I glanced at Xiao Shiqiu and asked, "Why don't we follow and take a look?"
"Well," Xiao Shiqiu pulled me over unhurriedly. The nurse had already started drawing blood from Yuan Youan. When he saw us following him, he said a little embarrassedly, "Tiantian's mother and I can take care of it here. Mr. Xiao, why don't you go back and rest?"
The father role is quickly replaced, and Xiao Tiantian's two fathers are really seamlessly connected!
