Chapter 287 The situation is not optimistic.
My gaze toward Rong Yafei was filled with anger, even resentment.
"After you came back, you hesitated many times, but you just wanted to ask me if I hated you and if I still loved you."
"But Rong Yafei, how can I not hate you!"
"Because of you and me, Xiao Xiaotian is suffering immense pain. Do you know how difficult leukemia is to cure? You have innocently caused a young life to suffer."
"I'm partly to blame for this, how can you expect me not to hate you!"
Rong Yafei shook her head in pain, reaching out to grab me and move closer to me.
I backed away as she approached.
I staggered, almost unable to stand, not wanting to wake Xiao Xiaotian, and even deliberately lowered my voice.
"I know you gave birth to Xiao Xiaotian to force me to come back, but do you know the pain you're causing the child?"
Even if you did that, what makes you think I could let go of so much of the past and get back together with you? Do you think it's possible?
Rong Yafei's outstretched hand eventually fell limply to its side.
Hearing me say these words that I had kept hidden in my heart for so long, she probably realized that we could never go back to the past, and her pained face turned ashen in the cold weather.
Tears welled in her eyes, and only now did she finally admit her mistake.
“Zhang Tian, I know I was terribly wrong, but Xiao Xiao Tian is also the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty. It’s impossible for me not to love her. Maybe my initial motives were impure, but my love for her is real.”
She stepped forward and grabbed my hand, refusing to let me struggle. She held my hand tightly, even trembling!
"But you have to understand, talking about the past is pointless. He's sick now, and all we can do is stay by his side."
"Stand by his side and get through this together. After all, he has no one to rely on but us."
I know what she said is true, but I just can't accept it.
I simply couldn't bear to watch my child suffer so much at such a young age.
Tears silently streamed down my face; I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak.
Even though I couldn't bear it, I ultimately had to watch helplessly as Xiao Xiaotian underwent the puncture.
I couldn't bear to watch that process unfold.
When I saw that cold needle being inserted into his small body, I ran outside like a coward.
Even though Xiao Xiaotian didn't make a sound, all I could hear was his pitiful crying.
The results came out quickly, and the doctor came to my ward with the report.
Xiao Xiaotian's condition is not optimistic. Although he is young, his illness is deteriorating very rapidly.
The doctor gave us an ultimatum: based on Xiaoxiaotian's condition, we have only a year and a half left.
In other words, whether it's having another baby or finding a matching hematopoietic stem cell donor, there's only a year and a half to go.
Beyond this timeframe, even if we find a suitable match, Xiaoxiaotian's body will have already collapsed, making it pointless.
In other words, we don't have much time left.
That night, Song Yafei and I tacitly stayed by Xiao Xiaotian's side and did not leave.
I even had a dream while lying by the bed, in which a monster took Xiaoxiao and Tian away on such a dark night when Song Yafei and I weren't paying attention.
As dawn broke, I felt a light drowsiness and was just about to take a nap when Song Yafei suddenly made a noise.
She was standing at the door, about to leave, when she saw I was awake. She explained in a low voice.
"Something has come up at the company that I need to handle."
Then she left.
Later I found out that she wasn't going to the company, but to a temple that was said to be very effective.
She went to the temple not for any other reason than that Xiao Xiaotian was seriously ill and she was desperate for a cure.
I learned about this news from the newspaper the very next day.
To my surprise, Lin Qiuran came all the way from Hancheng.
It was around noon, and while Xiao Xiaotian was asleep, I went to the bathroom to wash up.
When I came out, I saw Lin Qiuran sitting by the hospital bed, looking at Xiao Xiaotian.
Hearing me open the door, he turned around and looked at me. In just one glance, I noticed that his eyes were red.
I know he was pitying Xiao Xiaotian, who had to suffer like this at such a young age.
They were also feeling sorry for me, that I would encounter such a distressing situation at this time.
My nose tingled and my eyes welled up with tears.
It was the day before yesterday that Lin Qiuran suddenly called me.
He somehow found out about my return to Fengcheng and called to ask me about it. During our conversation, I mentioned my cooperation with the Song family.
Then they started talking about Xiao Xiaotian.
Lin Qiuran was very surprised that Rong Yafei would give birth to Xiao Xiaotian, and even blamed Song Yafei for doing such a thing.
Of all the people Lin Qiuran knew, she disliked Song Yafei the most, not for any other reason than the hardships she had suffered over the years because of her.
So when he found out that Song Yafei had given birth, he was furious!
But the next moment, when she learned from me that Xiao Xiaotian had congenital leukemia, she was so upset and depressed that she couldn't speak.
He even scolded Song Yafei, as he and I couldn't understand her actions.
But he, like me, knew that Song Yafei's purpose in doing this was simply to keep me by her side.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qiuran returned to Fengcheng from Hancheng two days later.
He was travel-worn and had only a small bag with him; he had nothing else with him.
After Lin Qiuran and I sat down, he asked about the child's condition, and I told him what had just happened.
"The biopsy was performed today, and the results were not ideal, but as long as a match is found within a year and a half, there will be no problem."
"So what do you plan to do?"
I looked at the child and said without hesitation, "Do it from both ends."
My words also meant that I would definitely do everything I could to get Song Yafei pregnant.
It was clear that Lin Qiuran was also helpless, but since the child was suffering, he could understand my actions.
So he didn't say anything to advise me or anything else.
Just then, the nanny came back from the cafeteria with two meals. When she saw Lin Qiuran, she immediately put down her food and prepared to go to the cafeteria.
But seeing how exhausted Lin Qiuran looked, I told him about my hotel room so he could rest there first.
Lin Qiuran had no objection. "Okay, I'll come back and look after the child for you once I've recovered. Then you can go back and rest."
"Look at your face, your dark circles are so heavy, it's obvious you haven't been getting enough rest."
"I don't know what Song Yafei is thinking. Now all the junior staff are suffering. Sigh!"
After saying that, he left the hospital with his small bag.
