Hospital, Emergency Department.
When Ningning called, Tingxu was treating Tongtong, a child whose arms and legs were injured in an accident.
“Come, be good. Can you give me your hand?”
“Ouch, it hurts so much!”
“It won’t hurt after you have applied the medicine. Bear with it now, don’t be afraid, I will apply it gently.”
Although Tongtong was in a lot of pain and was crying heartrendingly, she still obediently extended her hand.
Tingxu’s movements were light and gentle as she applied the medicine to Tongtong’s injuries.
She was very lucky to suffer only superficial injuries, her mother was not so lucky. During the collision, her mother had immediately shielded Tongtong with her body, so her injuries were more serious. The doctors were now fighting to save her life in the operating theater.
Tongtong’s father suffered multiple fractures all over his body and was also undergoing surgery at this moment.
As her parents were both seriously injured, Tongtong was alone waiting in the hospital. She was just two or three years old, so she must be pretty scared and nervous.
Fortunately, the hospital had already informed her grandparents who should be arriving soon.
As Tingxu was carefully treating the wound on Tongtong’s arm, the phone in the pocket of her coat rang. She ignored it and continued to treat Tongtong’s wound. It wasn’t deep nor big, thus it took less than two minutes to disinfect, apply medicine, and bandage it.
At this moment, Tongtong’s grandparents arrived. When they saw her, her grandmother could not stop her tears from flowing, “Tongtong, my darling, how did it end up like this? My heart aches so much!”
“Grandmother, it’s so painful, I’m so scared!” said Tongtong, sobbing piteously. She finally broke down completely when she saw her grandparents. Tongtong and her grandmother hugged each other and cried. Even her grandfather’s eyes were red.
Tingxu was just about to update Tongtong’s grandparents about the current situation when her phone rang again.
“Hello?”
“Mom, it’s me. Why didn’t you pick up the phone?”
When she heard her son’s voice, Tingxu couldn’t help but smile, “Did you call just now?”
On the other end of the line, Ningning nodded, “Yes, but you didn’t pick up, so I waited for a while before calling again.”
“I’m sorry, baby. I was a little busy just now. I was bandaging a patient, so I couldn’t free my hands,” she explained very seriously.
Although her son was not even four years old, it didn’t mean that he didn’t know anything at a young age. She would always communicate and explain things to Ningning to foster good communication between parents and child.
Ningning was always indulgent towards his mom, “It’s okay, mom.”
“I know you are the most sensible. Where’s your dad?”
“He’s taking a shower. Mom, I miss you so much. This place is old and shabby, and it’s dark everywhere. I want to go back, but dad won’t let me!”
Although Tingxu wasn’t there in person, she could just imagine the place as Boyuan had mentioned it before.
“Baby, you agreed to participate in this show, how can you back out now? Isn’t dad there with you?”
Hearing this, Ningning just hummed out of habit.
“I won’t give up halfway. Mom, don’t worry.”
“Good, that’s great! It’s already late, shouldn’t you go to bed?”
Ningning immediately yawned. He was indeed very sleepy, “Goodnight, mom.”
“Goodnight, baby.”
