Chapter 480 She Won't Wake Up Again

A week later, Mingzhu's face was cleaned up, but she lay on the bed with a pale face. Since the operation that day, her eyes have never opened again.

Her arms were bent on both sides, and the two children were crying non-stop, as if they had cried out all their strength.

Jiang Duo, however, turned a deaf ear to the bedside, with a scruffy beard and a haggard face, holding Mingzhu's hand tightly.

Behind him, Fang Shuyu, who had been tired for several days, came over and wanted to pick up the children.

But Jiang Duo said coldly: "Put it down!"

Fang Shuyu's eyes were red, she turned back to look at him, her voice hoarse: "Xiao Duo, don't be like this, the child is really not good to cry like this every day, if she cries again, she will cry badly."

Jiang Duo didn't look at her, his eyes still fell straight on Mingzhu's face, his eyes were empty and lonely: "Zhuzhu will come back when she hears their crying."

Fang Shuyu turned sideways and couldn't help crying again.

Jiang Shouxin, who had returned from Jinshi six days ago, felt the great sadness coming from the ward, and heard the child's increasingly subtle crying, and knew that this couldn't go on.

He walked over, bent down, picked up one of the children, and glanced at Tian Hongxiu: "Hongxiu, help your sister-in-law pick up the second child and carry him next door."

Tian Hongxiu nodded: "Okay."

"Don't pick them up!" Jiang Duo looked at Jiang Shouxin coldly: "Put them down."

Jiang Shouxin raised his hand and slapped Jiang Duo hard.

"Jiang Duo! How long are you going to go crazy? This is your own child, the child that Zhuzhu risked her life to give birth to for you. Zhuzhu is unconscious, and you treat her child like this? The two older ones are crying, and the younger one is under surveillance because of lack of oxygen for too long. Jiang Duo, why are you like this... If Zhuzhu was awake, she would blame you!"

Jiang Duo lowered his head and looked at Mingzhu who seemed to be asleep on the bed. She was obviously... just asleep, but the doctor said that although she saved her life, she suffered brain death due to excessive blood loss, and it would be difficult for her to wake up again in her life.

The nearly 1.9-meter-tall man suddenly sat beside the bed like a lost soul, bent over and hugged Mingzhu tightly in his arms, buried his face in her neck, and whispered in pain: "Zhuzhu, blame me when you wake up, you can hit me or scold me, wake up, don't leave me."

Fang Shuyu listened to his son's words, and the crying that followed pushed the atmosphere of sadness to a climax again.

Tian Hongxiu's eyes were red, and tears were pouring out of her eyes.

Zhuzhu was fine, how could giving birth to a child turn out like this...

Jiang Shouxin turned his face away in pain, holding the child and walking out while saying: "Hongxiu, take the child out, please help make some milk powder for the child and feed him, I'll go see how the third child is doing."

Tian Hongxiu choked up and nodded: "Okay."

The two came to the next door, and after Jiang Shouxin put the child down, he gently stroked the child's face with his rough palm, and then turned and left.

Tian Hongxiu made milk powder for the two children, crying while feeding them.

At noon, Jiang Qi was the first to rush over after work, and he went to see the children first.

The eldest and second child fell asleep, and Tian Hongxiu sat by the bed in a daze. When she saw Jiang Qi, she stood up and went over to hug her son and cried: "Xiao Qi, what should we do with Zhuzhu? It's all my fault. If I hadn't let her hear the news of Xiaoduo's accident that day, she would never have been stimulated and had an accident. It's all my fault! Xiaoduo... seems to be crazy. If Zhuzhu can't wake up, he will also... what should I do?"

Jiang Qi hugged his mother and patted her back gently to comfort her.

"Mom, I have consulted with specialists in several hospitals. Zhuzhu's current condition is unlikely to make her wake up again. Xiaoduo may not be able to bear such a big blow and has no energy to take care of the children.

My second aunt can't take care of three children alone. It's not as reassuring to hire a nanny as to have your own family take care of them, so... I thought about it, why don't you apply for early retirement from your unit, help my second aunt and Xiaoduo, and make up for the guilt in your heart, what do you think?"

Tian Hongxiu nodded vigorously. Now, as long as she can make up for Mingzhu and Jiangduo, she is willing to resign even if the unit does not allow early retirement.

If she doesn't do something for these two children, Tian Hongxiu feels that she will be tortured crazy by guilt.

Jiang Qi patted her shoulder and said, "Take care of the eldest and the second child. I'll go to see Jiang Duo."

He went to the next ward.

The atmosphere inside was depressing just by walking in. Jiang Qi walked to Fang Shuyu and lowered his voice, "Second aunt, you go to the next room to look after the children and take a rest."

Fang Shuyu shook her head at Jiang Duo and Mingzhu.

Jiang Qi said worriedly, "Second aunt, Jiang Duo won't be able to come out for a while. You have to support him. There are three children waiting for you. Don't collapse. If you collapse, this family will be over."

Fang Shuyu looked at Jiang Qi with red eyes.

Jiang Qi nodded to her and sent her out of the ward. He turned back to look at Jiang Duo, who was still holding Mingzhu tightly by the bed, but his eyes were empty.

He frowned, walked over to pour a glass of water, and handed it to Jiang Duo: "Jiang Duo, drink a glass of water and eat something..."

Jiang Duo seemed not to hear, and kept whispering in Mingzhu's ear.

Jiang Qi bent over and moved closer, and then he could hear what Jiang Duo was saying.

"Zhuzhu, you can hear me, right? You promised me that you would hold my hand and go to see the prosperous world together. You said you would not leave me and would live with me until we grow old. I believed you. I have always firmly believed that you would not deceive me, so you can wake up, right?"

"Zhuzhu, don't leave me. I can't face life without you. Don't go back. Don't go to that world where I can't reach you."

Jiang Qi straightened up and looked down at Jiang Duo. That year, he also suffered a huge blow when he came back from the front line, but at that time, he at least listened to people's advice and had his own ideas.

But now... he seems to have his soul sucked out of him.

Jiang Qi has never seen Jiang Duo so... destitute. He was about to persuade him, but heard Jiang Duo muttering to himself again.

"That world...it will take me forty years to get there. Forty years is too long, really too long. I can't stand it, not even a second."

"Zhuzhu, I'm going crazy. I'm really going crazy. I want to see you right now. Please come back. Please, come back."

Jiang Qi was stunned when he heard this.

"Xiaoduo, what are you... talking about? What's wrong with you? Zhuzhu is in your arms. She didn't leave. She just..."

Jiang Duo buried his tearful eyes in Mingzhu's neck, his voice hoarse and sad, "No, Zhuzhu is gone, she left me and doesn't want me anymore."
