Chapter 430 - Family Hug
Feeling the movement of his daughter’s fingers, Jie was frozen for a whole minute before he hurriedly stood and leaned over to ask, "Juan! Are you awake? Can you hear me?"
The little girl’s eyes fluttered open slowly as she called out, "Daddy..."
"Yes, yes, I’m right here!" Jie answered as he pressed her hand to let her know that he was right beside her. "Let me call the doctor."
His words had just fallen when the doctors rushed inside. Both Jie and Xu Mey had been pushed aside as they examined Juan. Xu Mey held Jie’s hand tightly and the latter didn’t push it away. He was solely focused on his daughter’s condition right now.
The only calm person in the room was Bao who was still languidly but elegantly eating his food. His expressions didn’t show his earlier anxiousness at all. However, since he was sitting in a corner, no one really noticed any abnormality with him.
After the examination, the doctors showed a relaxed smile to Jie and Xu Mey as they told, "Your daughter is out of danger now. Her fever is under control. We’ll need to observe her condition during this period so she’ll have to stay in the hospital for a while." The doctor lowered his voice and added, "And I’d suggest you consult a psychiatrist. She is very young. It’ll be good if you can ascertain that this incident didn’t leave any bad flavor in her mind. It’s better to be safe than sorry."
Jie nodded his head and saw them out.
He rushed back to Juan’s side and said, "Juan, how are you feeling? Is it hurting somewhere? Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need anything? How about some water?"
Juan raised her small hand to touch her father’s face, "Daddy, which question should I answer first? Give me some time to talk."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJie hugged her tightly, "You scared me so much." He stroked her head saying, "If you had any problems, you should have shared it with me. Why keep it inside yourself? Don’t you say, you’ll get sick if you don’t talk? See? It happened! You should have said something instead of hurting yourself like this."
"I’m sorry!" The little girl said in a small voice. "I won’t keep it to myself again. I promise."
When Jie pulled away, only then did Juan looked at her mother who was standing with a complicated look in her eyes. She stepped closer and called out, "Juan..."
Juan held Xu Mey’s jacket and asked, "Mom, you came?"
Xu Mey’s tears again fell down as she nodded and kissed her daughter, "Yes, I came."
"You came here for me?" she asked again.
"Yes, I came for my daughter," replied Xu Mey in a heavy tone.
"You won’t leave me again, right?"
Xu Mey stiffened a bit before shaking her head repeatedly, "Never. I’ll never leave my daughter."
Juan smiled at her saying, "Then that’s good. Juan would be happy." She waited for a minute before asking, "Mom, you aren’t mad at Juan, right?"
"No, I’m not," choked out Xu Mey.
Juan’s smile brightened as she extended her small arms to ask for a hug. Xu Mey embraced her in her arms and heard her daughter say, "Mom can be mad at Juan but don’t be mad at daddy, okay? Daddy gets lonely without mom."
Xu Mey looked at Jie beside her and nodded her head agreeably, "You’re right. Mom also gets lonely without him." She kissed the top of Juan’s head and added, "And stop thinking nonsense. There is no way Mom can stay mad at Juan."
Juan tried to sit up but both her parents pushed her down, "You look so weak. Just keep resting. Why do you have to sit up?"
Juan pouted, "I want a group hug." She looked in the direction of her brother who put his chopsticks down and walked over. "Ge, you’re not happy to see me?"
Bao smiled so not like himself before saying, "I can die from this happiness right now."
Jie smacked his head lightly, "Don’t spout nonsense. Your dad’s half-life is just getting restored. Do you want to take it all now?"
Bao immediately got on her bed and opened his arms saying, "Group hug! No, I mean let’s have a family hug!"
How could both Jie and Xu Mey refuse their twins? They hugged the twins and eventually had their own arms around each other as well.
"Mom, I’m sorry!" said Juan. "I will try to be less willful from now on."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXu Mey fixed her hair saying, "Mom is also sorry for speaking like that. Mom will also try not to be willful." She smiled at her daughter, "Let’s both do our best?" Juan hurriedly nodded her head.
"Juan wanted to apologize to mom in the morning but mom was already gone. So, Juan couldn’t do it."
Xu Mey’s eyes dimmed listening to that as she was reminded of her own foolishness again. "I’m sorry. It won’t happen again. I’ll be always there for you. Whenever you need to talk to mom, mom will be there for you."
Both brother and sister shared a look before Juan said, "Mom, I didn’t get to eat the breakfast made by you today. Maybe that’s why I got sick. I’m hungry. Can you make me something delicious?"
Xu Mey nodded her head, "Yes, of course! Mom will cook you whatever you want. I should go home to make it right now!"
On cue, Bao pushed his father’s arm, "What are you doing, dad? Go with mom."
"Why? She is not a kid who needs supervision. I need to stay here with you both."
Bao took a deep breath and said, "We are also not kids. Let’s do this, Uncle J is here. Isn’t that enough? Juan has to rest anyway. What are you gonna do?"
"I’ll just stay with her even if she is sleeping," retorted Jie.
Juan stared at her father, "No, I think daddy should go home as well."
Jie looked at both his kids who continued to urge him to go with their mother and he had to yield before them. There was no other way around it. He couldn’t be headstrong before his twins.
