Chapter 227 Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up.
"It's me."
Riemann said, forcing himself to speak.
Huang Dehan was stunned for two seconds before he reacted and yelled, "Are you crazy? Why are you calling me? Get lost!"
Without waiting for Riemann to speak, Huang Dehan hung up the phone.
Riemann held the microphone, and tears fell again.
Given Huang Dehan's attitude, even if you begged him, he would never agree.
what to do?
Just now, in order to reassure her father, she made overly confident statements.
But if she didn't say that, how could her father feel at ease?
She didn't want her father to leave in unease.
Just then, the phone rang.
The nurse standing nearby looked at Li Man with a puzzled expression. Didn't she just say that her phone was out of battery?
Can a dead phone still ring?
Seeing the nurse looking at her, Li Man awkwardly put down the landline receiver, thanked the nurse, and quickly walked out of the nurses' station.
Looking at the caller ID, Li Man saw it was Huo Jiansheng calling and quickly answered.
"I heard you went home. How's your father?"
Huo Jiansheng just went to the night market and found out that Li Man had gone home.
For some reason, Li Man felt like crying whenever she heard Huo Jiansheng's voice, but she had promised him that she wouldn't cry in front of him.
She sniffed, fighting back tears, and said in a hoarse voice, "My father..."
Her throat felt like it was blocked by a boulder, making her choke and unable to speak.
"You cried?"
Huo Jiansheng asked with concern, "Is your father not doing well? Should I come over?"
Li Man originally wanted to say no, but then she suddenly thought of her daughter. Huang Dehan refused to come, so it would be good to bring her daughter to let her father see her.
The parents haven't met their granddaughter yet.
Just as she was about to ask Huo Jiansheng to bring her daughter over, she suddenly remembered that Huo Jiansheng had never met her daughter, and that her daughter would never go with a stranger like him.
Finally, Riemann said, "No need, thank you!"
Hearing Riemann reject him, Huo Jiansheng felt inexplicably annoyed and said unhappily, "Riemann, do you not consider me a friend?"
“No, I was just afraid of troubling you…” Li Man quickly replied.
"I'm not afraid of trouble, so what are you afraid of?"
Huo Jiansheng said angrily, "Please let me know if anything happens in the future. Don't try to shoulder everything by yourself."
Although Huo Jiansheng's voice was loud, his words were very heartwarming.
Li Man finally couldn't hold back anymore and burst into tears. Between sobs, she said, "My dad is dying. I wanted to call Huang Dehan and ask him to bring my daughter to see him one last time, but he just hung up on me. I told my dad he would come tomorrow... I don't know what to do now... I don't want my dad to die worrying about me... I'm so heartbroken..."
Riemann cried incoherently.
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a long pause before the question was asked, "Have your parents never met your daughter?"
“No,” Riemann said, sobbing.
After another silence on the other end of the phone, he said, "I'm bringing your daughter over now. Wait for me."
Upon hearing this, Riemann's sobs choked in her throat, and she asked in disbelief, "What did you just say?"
"Just wait and see. Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you. Don't cry, I can't stand to hear you cry!"
For some reason, Huo Jiansheng felt uncomfortable seeing Li Man cry; she really was his nemesis.
The first time he saw Riemann, he saw her crying pitifully, and he, who never meddles in other people's business, inexplicably went over and helped her up when she was about to fall.
