It's been a week now, and Xian Mingyu hasn't contacted Mo Niannian at all. Mo Niannian can't find him either and doesn't know what he's been up to.
Every day, besides staying at home and killing time out of boredom, she spends her time picking up and dropping off Youyou at kindergarten.
Every day, Youyou asks where her uncle went and why he doesn't come to play with her. Mo Niannian can only vaguely tell her that her uncle is too busy and doesn't have time.
That day, Mo Niannian ate lunch and went back to her room to sleep, just like she always did.
I set my alarm to pick up Youyou from kindergarten at 4 p.m.
I had just fallen asleep when my phone rang.
Mo Niannian groped for her phone in a daze, glanced at it, and saw that it was a call from Youyou's kindergarten teacher.
Strange, what time is it? Did the kindergarten let out early today?
"Hello? Teacher Mo, has Youyou finished school?"
[Yoyo's mom, Yoyo has just been taken to the ambulance at XX Children's Hospital. Please come quickly with Yoyo.]
"What!" Mo Niannian sat up abruptly in bed. Had she heard correctly? How could Youyou be in an ambulance all of a sudden? She had personally taken her to kindergarten today.
"What exactly happened? Why was Youyou put in an ambulance? Why did she suddenly end up in the hospital?"
[Here's what happened: Today at kindergarten, Youyou had a little argument with other children while playing on the slide. She lost her grip and fell. But we called an ambulance right away, so don't worry, Youyou's mom.]
"I'm not worried? That's my daughter! How can you expect me not to be worried!"
Yoyo... her baby...
What happened to her Youyou?
Mo Niannian felt like her world was about to collapse.
We can't afford to delay any longer.
Mo Niannian hung up the phone, not even bothering to change her shoes and clothes, and hurriedly ran downstairs.
"Ruoruo, what's wrong? Where are you rushing off to?"
Feng Zhiyuan slowly stood up from the sofa in the living room, leaning on his cane.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Hurry up and send me a car, I need to go to the hospital, something happened to Youyou, Youyou is still waiting for me in the operating room." Mo Niannian grabbed Feng Zhiyuan's arm, tears streaming down her face.
I wish I could take a rocket and fly to Youyou's side right away.
"What? Youyou... Okay, okay, I'll have Lao Li bring the car out right away. Don't worry, Youyou will be fine."
"By the way, Grandpa, you... could you also give Mingyu a call? I don't know if he'd be willing to go see Youyou..." He hadn't replied to her messages for many days, and Mo Niannian wasn't sure if Xuan Mingyu still cared about her and little Youyou.
But since Youyou and he were so close before, he should be able to find some time to visit Youyou in the hospital.
“Okay, I’ll call him as soon as we get in the car. I’ll go to the hospital with you. I want to see Youyou get better with my own eyes.”
"Um!"
***
When Mo Niannian and Feng Zhiyuan arrived at the hospital, Xiao Youyou was still in the operating room. Teacher Mo, Youyou's teacher, was sitting on a bench, looking down at her phone.
Hearing footsteps and seeing Mo Niannian rushing over, Teacher Mo quickly put her phone back in her pocket and stood up. "Youyou's mom..."
Mo Niannian gave her a completely unfriendly look and said, "Get lost."
"What?" Teacher Mo looked bewildered, thinking she might have misheard.
"Ruo Ruo, what's wrong with you..." Feng Zhiyuan didn't expect Mo Niannian to suddenly get so angry.
The Bai Xiaoruo of the past would never have told anyone to get lost, let alone utter a single curse word. Except for being a little fierce towards Xian Mingyu, she was always gentle and soft-spoken to everyone else.
Mo Niannian's face showed no sign of agitation. She looked calmly at Teacher Mo in front of her and said, "I told you to get out. Can't you understand human language?"
"I...this...Yoyo's mom, I know you're worried about Yoyo right now..."
"Shut up, stop pretending! You were having a good time on your phone, weren't you? You were having a good time when Youyou had that accident too, weren't you? From now on, Youyou will no longer attend that kindergarten of yours. I don't need a teacher like you to teach my Youyou! If Youyou doesn't come out of the operating room safely, I won't let your kindergarten, or any of your teachers, get away with it!" Mo Niannian said vehemently.
Ms. Mo swallowed hard, clearly startled. "Youyou's mom, there must be some misunderstanding. I... I have something to do, so I'll have to go now." She grabbed her bag from the bench and hurriedly fled the hospital.
Mo Niannian stared intently at the red light shining from the ceiling of the operating room, her heart breaking.
Her Yuyu... her Yuyu is still inside, her life hanging in the balance, being rescued...
Youyou, you absolutely cannot be hurt, you must be strong...
Mom can't live without you... she really can't live without you...
Mo Niannian cried and blamed herself, "It's all my fault, I didn't take good care of her, I'm such a bad mother..."
"Nobody wants accidents to happen... Ruoruo, sit down for a while. Youyou will definitely get through this safely." Feng Zhiyuan comforted Mo Niannian, silently praying that little Youyou would come out of the operating room safely.
"Nian Nian!"
Xuan Mingyu jogged over here.
Upon receiving Feng Zhiyuan's call, Xian Mingyu immediately dropped what he was doing and rushed over.
