He closed his eyes again to take a catnap. Suddenly, the sound of the telephone ringing broke his concentration. He opened his eyes hastily at the shock and picked up the receiver. He was wide awake due to the timely telephone ring. Otherwise, he would have fallen asleep.

This was crunch time. How could he use it to sleep? How dared he?

Hello, you Before he could finish his greeting, he got to his feet abruptly. Even his expression had changed instantly.

Mr. Chu, how can this be? Tomorrow is the day for the surgery. That child just had

Hello! Mr. Chu, Mr. Chu

The doctor stared at the telephone after the line was disconnected and stood rooted on the spot like a wooden man.

The surgery tomorrow was canceled.

Chu Lui had refused to be a bone marrow donor.

There was no room for negotiation.

He said not to contact him in the future.

How could this be? What had happened? Hadnt they confirmed everything? The surgery team has done all the necessary preparation. Even earlier, he had barely saved Rainy from the brink of death. This time, lady luck was on her side. Next time, it might not be so.

The child was waiting for him to save her.

How could he be so irresponsible? He gave them hope and dashed it all, putting them into the darkest and coldest corner of hell.

This surgery was meant to save a life. It was not a game for them to resurrect the dead. She only has one life and this one chance.

Pang! He slammed the receiver on the table. What should he tell the child? How could he face the poor mother to break the news? Their hope had been dashed. It was gone. That would mean the child was also losing her life. It was such a young life, and she was such an adorable child.

He sank in his chair. As a doctor, he was used to seeing death. However, to witness someone this young losing her life still saddened him, and his heart ached from it.

Such a pitiful child.

He picked up the medical records and started to make his way out. However, as he stood by the door to the ward and saw Xia Ruoxin and Rainys silhouettes, he couldnt bring himself to go forward another step. Moreover, to tell them the bad news.

Let both of them have another day. One more day of hope was better than one more day of despair. He closed the door gently, allowing the mother and daughter to have this space to themselves. This might be the last time for them to be together in each others company.

Mommy. Rainy opened her eyes slowly. As she was rubbing her eyes, she saw Xia Ruoxin; and a small smile appeared on her face. Her smile was as always filled with innocence and naivety.

Mommy, I love you very much. Mommy must remember me. Dont forget me. Her tiny hands grabbed gently at Xia Ruoxins wig. However, soon, her little mouth was pouting again.

Mommy, I am afraid.

You dont have to be. Look, Mommy is here with you. Right? Xia Ruoxin cupped her daughters face with her hands. She could feel the tears on her daughters little face, and all Rainy wanted was for her face to be plastered onto Xia Ruoxins hands. She stopped crying the moment she felt her mothers warm hands.

Mommys hands are big. They are almost as big as my face.

She rested a hand on Xia Ruoxins and compared their hands. Mommy, will I grow up to be as beautiful as you? She played with Xia Ruoxins fingers. Her teary eyes were exceptionally bright. Everything in her world was innocent and simple.
