Chapter 487 She is still so young
But, Nian Nian...
Her Nian Nian was so small and so cute, lying on the cold hospital bed, waiting for a glimmer of hope.
"Is Su Jiujiu really in your hands?" Ji Wan asked word by word, his voice frighteningly cold.
"It's absolutely true." Zhao Xiyue replied immediately, "I locked her up. She can't run away. Wanwan, as long as you nod, we will act immediately. I need you, Nian Nian needs you."
Ji Wan closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks. All the irritability, resentment, and heart-wrenching pain seemed to be less important in the face of her daughter's life.
She suddenly opened her eyes, a glint of determination flashed in them: "Okay."
One word is as heavy as a thousand pounds.
"I'll help you." Ji Wan's voice had regained its composure, but with a frightening determination. "Tell me the plan. For Nian Nian, I can do anything. But Zhao Xiyue, if anything goes wrong with Nian Nian, or if you dare to play any tricks again, I will never let you go, and I will never let Su Jiujiu go either."
Zhao Xiyue on the other end of the phone felt like a huge rock that had been pressing on her heart fell to the ground the moment she heard the word "OK". Her legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.
"Wanwan, thank you, thank you."
Every step Ji Wan took into the hospital felt heavier than a thousand pounds. Zhao Xiyue's voice, a mixture of desperation and pleading, kept resonating in her mind.
"Chi Wenyan won't agree."
"Only you can help me."
"You are Nian Nian's mother."
The smell of disinfectant in the air reminded her all the time that Nian Nian was fighting against death in this cold building.
Tonight is the time they agreed on.
She stood outside Nian Nian's ward, beads of sweat forming on her palms. The effort of pushing the door open seemed to drain all the blood from her body. She took a deep breath, her eyes suddenly firm.
For Nian Nian, she would give up everything, even if it meant seeking the skin of a tiger or stealing her own daughter.
In the ward, a tall figure stood beside Nian Nian's bed with his back to the door.
That familiar silhouette made Ji Wan's heart suddenly tighten.
Chi Wenyan.
Why is he here? At this time, shouldn't he...
The man turned around when he heard the voice. The handsome face that once made her fall in love with him was now filled with unconcealable fatigue and haggardness.
The moment their eyes met, Ji Wan felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to her heart. The flash of pain in his eyes failed to move her in the slightest.
In her opinion, he had brought all this upon himself.
"You're here." Chi Wenyan's voice was hoarse and full of fatigue.
Ji Wan's eyes were cold, and a mocking arc appeared at the corner of his mouth: "What? Mr. Chi, this is my daughter's ward. Do I need your permission to visit her?" Every word he said was like an ice-hardened blade, piercing straight at the other party.
Chi Wenyan's brows were furrowed. He took a step forward, his tone pleading: "Wanwan, can we please not talk like this?"
"What kind of words?"
Ji Wan sneered, the resentment pent up in his heart like a volcano about to erupt.
"Chi Wenyan, when you even disregarded Nian Nian's life for that bitch Su Jiujiu, we had nothing to say. Didn't you warn Zhao Xiyue not to touch Su Jiujiu in the slightest? Why are you pretending to be a kind father now?"
Her voice was not loud, but every word was clear, filled with suppressed anger and disappointment.
"I didn't." Chi Wenyan's face turned pale in an instant, and he defended himself anxiously, "I never thought of giving up Nian Nian. Su Jiujiu..."
"Shut up." Ji Wan interrupted him harshly, his chest heaving violently, "I don't want to hear that woman's name from you. Chi Wenyan, get out of my way. I want to see my daughter."
She pushed him away and walked straight to the bed.
Looking at Nian Nian, whose face was as pale as paper and whose body was full of tubes, lying on the hospital bed, Ji Wan's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and the pain made her almost unable to breathe.
Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably, but she stubbornly pushed them back. She couldn't cry. Now wasn't the time to cry.
She reached out her hand tremblingly and gently stroked Nian Nian's cold little face, her voice choked with sobs: "Nian Nian, don't be afraid, Mom is here, Mom will take you away from here soon, and you will be fine soon..."
Behind him, Chi Wenyan's voice trembled slightly: "Wanwan, I know you hate me, but Nian Nian is also my daughter. I can't give her to you."
Ji Wan turned around abruptly, staring at him intently with eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Really? Then let me ask you, Chi Wenyan, if now, only Su Jiujiu's bone marrow can save Nian Nian, what will you choose?"
She spoke each word clearly, and each word was like a heavy weight, hitting Chi Wenyan's heart hard.
Chi Wenyan's Adam's apple rolled, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
His eyes flickered between Ji Wan's resolute face and his daughter lying on the dying bed, his face filled with painful struggle. Time froze at this moment.
In Ji Wan's opinion, the suffocating silence was the cruelest answer.
She smiled sadly, a smile full of despair and irony: "I understand."
Yes, she understood it completely. This man would eventually give up her thoughts for Su Jiujiu.
Okay.
This way, she no longer has any worries.
Tonight, she must succeed, for Nian Nian.
Ji Wan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the hatred and grief surging in his heart. His voice was cold and without a trace of warmth, like ice in the coldest days of winter: "Chi Wenyan, I want to take Nian Nian to transfer to another hospital."
As soon as these words came out, Chi Wenyan's tall body shook violently, and the bloodshot eyes became even scarier. He said hoarsely, "Transfer to another hospital? Where are you taking Nian Nian? Wanwan, listen to me, I have contacted top experts abroad, and there will be news on new bone marrow sources soon..."
"No need." Ji Wan interrupted him mercilessly, his eyes full of undisguised sarcasm and determination. "Mr. Chi is very quick, and Nian Nian can't wait. I understand that you are reluctant to use Su Jiujiu's bone marrow. But for my daughter's life, I am willing to give up everything I have in exchange."
"When did I say I couldn't bear to leave?" The veins on Chi Wenyan's forehead bulged, as if something was running rampant inside him. He took a sudden step forward and tried to grab Ji Wan's arm, but she shook him off fiercely with a look of extreme disgust.
"Have you contacted Zhao Xiyue?" Chi Wenyan's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and his voice instantly sank, with an oppressive feeling of impending storm.
"Wanwan, I won't let you mess around with her. Don't you know what outrageous things she did before?"
