Chapter 849: Can I Bring Little Jiu Home?
“We’ll go over too!” Song Xinyan pulled Li Mohan along and turned to look at Han Siye. “Han Siye, we are going to the operating theater to wait for the results. We are leaving Little Jiu you and Rong Si.”
Han Siye nodded and pursed his lips slightly.
Actually, with Rong Si there, he had nothing to do.

Su Jiu lay motionless, but it was as if she had regained some consciousness.
In a daze, she sensed that she was walking in darkness. There was a faint light ahead. She immediately ran toward it.
Then she saw a tall, straight figure.
Su Jiu’s eyes lit up.
It’s Daddy!
She was about to run over when she saw a three- or four-year-old girl running toward her father. The girl was wearing a white cotton dress and carrying a pink rabbit bag. Her pink face was chubby and cute. The girl happily shouted in her cute little voice, “Daddy!”
Su Shengjing stood in the halo and smiled at the girl. He even reached out to her and picked her up.
The girl immediately wrapped her chubby hands around Su Shengjing’s neck and patted his face affectionately. “Daddy, can you bring Little Jiu home?”
Su Shengjing smiled. That smile was enveloped by a halo and looked exceptionally doting. “Alright, Daddy will bring you home.”
“Really? Daddy, you can’t lie to Little Jiu!”
“I’m not lying to you. Let’s go home.”
The girl was overjoyed when she suddenly noticed Su Jiu. Pointing at the older girl, she asked, “Daddy, how about that sister? Is Daddy taking her home too?”
Su Jiu saw her father looking at her, but his gaze was so unfamiliar as if he did not know her. It pierced her heart.
Her father looked away and kissed the girl’s cheek. “Of course, not. Daddy will take only Little Jiu home.” He then carried the girl away.
Stunned, Su Jiu ran after them. But before she could take two steps, her legs gave way and she crashed to the ground. It hurt so much that she was on the verge of tears, but her father had left her behind and left without looking back…
He and the little girl disappeared into the darkness beyond the halo.
Daddy!
Su Jiu lay on the ground and cried. Hot tears kept falling, like a child abandoned by the world.
Dad… I’m Little Jiu. Why did you leave me? Why didn’t you take me home?
“Why?”
In the ward, Rong Si saw that Su Jiu’s eyelashes were wet. Tears slid from the corners of her eyes and went into her hair. His heart skipped a beat, and then it ached.
Has she dreamed of something bad, so she cried in her dreams?
His heart aching, he lowered his mouth to the corner of her eye and gently kissed away her tears.
“Daddy…” Su Jiu whimpered.
Rong Si placed his hand on her forehead and comforted her in a low voice. “Don’t cry! He’ll be fine. He definitely will. He hasn’t broken my legs yet. How can he be willing to leave without you?”
After a while, Su Jiu slowly opened her eyes. Her swollen eyes were filled with tears that slid down her face like beads.
Suddenly, she sat up in bed and hugged Rong Si. Burying her head in his arms, she cried, “I dreamed of Daddy just now. He left me behind… Rong Si, is Daddy really gone?”
Rong Si held her tight, his throat working. “How can that be? He’s still in surgery. He’ll be fine.”
