Chapter 667 Our Dad is Dying
The bed was a bunk bed, a little small and a little hard. Qin Mucheng felt uncomfortable lying on it and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Thinking about Ji Yuanyuan's pregnancy, my mood became even more complicated.
To be honest, he never thought that he would become a father so soon.
While his playmates of the same age were still playing games, he was already about to become a father.
This feeling of pride and joy made his heart pound.
If it's a daughter, she would definitely be like Yuanyuan when she was a child, pink, tender and cute.
If it was a son, would he be like he was when he was a child, taciturn and mature beyond his years?
When the child is born, his friends will definitely envy him.
In the other bedroom, Ji Yuanyuan nestled in Li Xu's arms like she did when she was a child, quietly listening to Li Xu's mumbling, "Don't think that just because you have a space, it's omnipotent. Space can't solve all problems. You can't bring a child in, right?"
Ji Yuanyuan hummed casually.
"Since you're pregnant, let's happily welcome his arrival. Now is the perfect time while your mother-in-law and I are still young and can help you take care of the child. You'll just have to work hard for a few years. When the child grows up and you graduate, you'll be able to relax."
"Who said it wasn't!" Ji Yuanyuan said casually.
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan didn't seem to listen to her words at all, Li Xu stretched out her hand angrily and poked her forehead: "You girl, you don't take anything I say to you seriously."
Ji Yuanyuan chuckled twice: "Mom, how did you feel when you were pregnant for the first time?"
Thinking back to those days, Li Xu sighed helplessly: "How else could I feel? At that time, I was only the same age as you, and I didn't know anything. I was both nervous and happy. When your eldest brother was born, I didn't dare to hold him in my arms for the first one or two weeks. Every time, your grandmother would hold him in my arms and I would feed him."
Thinking about what happened back then, Li Xu felt a little ridiculous and whispered, "For a long time, I thought it was magical. A round belly suddenly turned into a little person who could cry, laugh and sleep."
Ji Yuanyuan touched her belly. Her baby should be only the size of a soybean now, right?
The mother and daughter talked and soon fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Li Xu was awakened by a phone call from home.
It was Li Yong who called, and his tone was a little panicked: "Sister, you and brother-in-law should quickly bring the children back, our father...is dying."
Upon hearing this, Li Xu suddenly sat up from the bed and asked sharply, "What?"
"Come back quickly and be with Miaomiao and the others." Li Yong said with a sob.
Li Xu's eyes went dark and he almost fainted.
Fortunately, Ji Yuanyuan was woken up and quickly supported her.
After hanging up the phone, Li Xu murmured, "Quick, wake up your dad, let's go back home, your grandpa is dying."
Ji Yuanyuan was also shocked when she heard this.
My grandfather has always been in good health. My grandmother sometimes has headaches and fevers, but my grandfather doesn't.
How come it suddenly stopped working?
She got up in a panic and went to wake Zhang Kun and Qin Mucheng up.
As she passed the living room, she glanced at the time.
It's only half past six now.
After calling Zhang Kun and Qin Mucheng, Ji Yuanyuan called Ji Zixuan and Gong Wenbai respectively.
She was afraid that her aunt would be too sad to hear the news, so she told her uncle-in-law first and let her uncle-in-law tell her aunt slowly.
Ji Ziang was abroad, so even if he was notified, he would immediately buy the nearest ticket and head back. It would probably take more than thirty hours before he arrived in W City.
So, Ji Yuanyuan did not inform him.
We planned to discuss on the way whether or not to let the second brother come back.
Ji Yuanyuan, Gong Wenbo and Ji Zixuan agreed to meet at the highway exit.
In such an emergency situation, the four people didn't take anything with them. They just changed their clothes and went downstairs.
Qin Mucheng drove to the highway exit.
After leaving the gate of the community, Li Xu finally reacted and said quickly: "Stop the car, stop the car, Yuanyuan can't go."
Qin Mucheng parked the car on the side of the road. Ji Yuanyuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked back suspiciously: "Why?"
"What if your grandfather has already..." Li Xu spoke, choking a little.
It took her a long time to hold back the sobs.
"You are pregnant now, you can't attend this kind of occasion."
There is a saying in W City that pregnant women cannot see dead people or attend funerals.
But this is her biological grandfather, who loved her so much when she was a child.
Ji Yuanyuan said with red eyes: "Mom, this is all superstition. If you don't let me go, it might be a lifelong regret."
Li Xu was a little hesitant. Seeing this, Qin Mucheng also advised: "Mom, I'll watch her, she'll be fine, just let her go."
Seeing that Qin Mucheng said so, Li Xu agreed: "Okay, let's go."
When Qin Mucheng and the others went over, Ji Zixuan was already waiting at the intersection.
He asked anxiously, "What is going on?"
Huang Weiwei stood beside him and patted his back with heartache.
Li Xu shook his head, "Your second uncle didn't explain it clearly, you will know when you go back."
Ji Zixuan pursed his lips and said nothing.
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you still calling the second brother?"
Ji Zixuan's eyes were firm, "Beat him and make him come back as soon as possible."
Even if it's too late, Ji Ziang has tried his best and will not have any regrets for the rest of his life.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan nodded, took out her cell phone and immediately called Ji Ziang who was on the other side of the ocean.
It was early morning here and evening there, so Ji Ziang answered the call quickly.
When he learned that Li Zhiming was dying, he was stunned for a long time, then choked up and said that he would buy the nearest plane ticket back.
As soon as the phone call was hung up, Gong Wenbai came over with Li Miao.
As soon as he got off the car, Li Miao ran towards Li Xu crying, "Sister, what happened to Dad?"
Li Xu, who had been holding back her tears all the way, finally cried when she saw Li Miao.
Only at this time could she and Li Miao fully empathize with each other.
Although other people may also feel uncomfortable, it is different from them.
Therefore, Li Xu could only cry in front of Li Miao.
"Where's Mumu?"
Gong Wenbo said quickly: "Auntie is with him. It's not convenient to bring him with her."
Li Miao has to go to work and Gong Wenbai has to take care of company matters.
Therefore, Mumu has always been taken care of by a special aunt. The aunt has been working in their family for several years and is trustworthy.
Hearing this, Li Xu took Li Miao's hand and whispered, "Let's go back first, and we'll talk about it when we get home."
Several people got back into the car.
Li Xu got into Li Miao's car and Gong Wenbai was responsible for driving.
Ji Yuanyuan and Zhang Kun were still in Qin Mucheng's car.
As for Ji Zixuan and Huang Weiwei's car, Huang Weiwei was driving it.
