Hanhai City Jingli Hospital
"What? Lung cancer has entered the advanced stage and can't survive for a few days?" In the attending doctor's office, Mingxi was stunned when she heard the news. Tears could not be controlled. She had lived with her father for so many years and she had never thought that one day her father would leave her. This news was like a bolt from the blue.
"Dad!" Mingxi rushed out of the office and ran towards the ward.
No, you can't take away her only support, her only support, no. It was he who gave her a warm home, a complete home. Without him, the home she guarded so carefully would really fall apart; without him, her already broken life would become even more broken; without him, her life would no longer be complete.
"Dad! Dad!" Mingxi pounded on the thick glass desperately. Seeing her father's pale face in the intensive care unit, her heart ached so much, as if someone took a sharp knife and cut her heart into pieces again and again.
"My dear daughter, don't cry. Even without your mother, you still have your father. Your father will definitely love you twice as much. Don't cry, my daughter..."
"Dad, others say I am a poor guy who has no mother to love me. They bully me, pull my hair, snatch my pencil and tear up my homework book! Dad, I want my mother... I want my mother..."
"My dear daughter, don't cry. Be strong. Daddy will find you a mother, okay?"
"Dad, this piece of chicken is for you!"
"My little baby, eat it. Dad doesn't like to eat chicken. My little baby needs to grow!"
"Dad, why don't you like chicken? I like it very much, why doesn't Dad like it?"
"Because daddy eats too much and is tired of it, so he doesn't like it!"
"Mingxi, call me mom!"
"Dad, she is my aunt, not my mom. I want my own mom. I don't want to call her mom!"
Memories flooded Mingxi's mind one after another. She slid down the glass and fell to the ground, sobbing softly.
She is a rag doll that no one wants. No one cherishes her. No one loves her. She is so humble that even Cinderella looks noble when she stands in front of her. Her father, the only one who treats her like a princess, is also leaving her. God, it's so unfair!
"Mom!" Mingxi fell weakly in the corridor, tears falling on the cold ground like beads from a broken string, whispering the name she would always call out when she was vulnerable, "Are you going to take Dad away from me? Mom, no! Don't leave me alone in the world, Mom!"
Qiqi stood by, crying and feeling sad with Mingxi. She wanted to go forward to comfort her, but she couldn't find any words. She knew the pain in Mingxi's heart. Although Mingxi's stepmother treated her as her own woman, and Mingxi almost treated her as her own mother, the blood-thicker-than-water family relationship could not be replaced.
"Mom, take me with you. Don't let me live alone in this world! Woohoo... Mom, take me away!"
Qiqi wiped the tears from her face. Now was not the time for her to be sad and cry with her. She wanted to help her find the courage to live.
They all stepped forward and held Mingxi's shoulders. "Mingxi, don't be sad. I'm here with you. You will never lose a friend like me in this life. Mingxi, you can't be so negative. Let's let uncle have the surgery. Maybe..."
"I have no money! I don't have a penny! I am incompetent. I can't save my father, I can't save the person I love. I can only watch him disappear from my sight, but I can't do anything. I'm useless, completely useless..." Mingxi's emotions were completely out of control, and she roared at Qiqi.
Looking at the weathered face in the glass, she could no longer control herself, she pushed Qiqi away and rushed out of the hospital...
