Chapter 266

Xu Ran and Liu Tong were left in the room after Lu Qi left. One was still lying on the bed and it was so quiet that Xu Ran could only hear his breathing.

He squatted down by the bed, reaching out to hold Liu Tong’s hand and called him softly.

Xu Ran didn’t say anything but looked at Liu Tong seriously. He looked at his eyebrows, his nose, his lips, his face, and his everything.

The child had come so suddenly and gone so suddenly that before any of them knew it, he was gone.

Xu Ran wanted to say that the child had no destiny to stay with them, but he knew that it was all because of them that the child would gone.

Xu Ran could still clearly remember the situation that Liu Tong was pregnant with Baozi. At that time, Liu Tong was unconscious because he was too tired. He had taken care of him all that time so that the baby could be delivered safely. In the following years, Xu Ran has been paying attention to Liu Tong’s health, and has been so careful.

But this time, Xu Ran grabbed Liu Tong’s hand tightly and closed his eyes. A tear slid across the corner of his eyes, and his face wes all wet.

The journey from Xu Village to Yanzhou capital lasted four months, with no good food or enough sleep on the way.

When they arrived at the Yanzhou capital, although they were on the ground finally, they soon started to get busy again. They were busy decorating new house, choosing furniture and going around.

And then, it was December. They had been really busy for a whole month without stopping.

That child should have been there on the night of their second day in Yanzhou. He had been in Liu Tong’s uterus for almost two months, but he still couldn’t come to this world safely.

Xu Ran wanted to repent, but he didn’t know whom to repent, because apart from the continuous blood from Liu Tong, he didn’t see anything else.

He felt so sad and painful in his heart, but he couldn’t say it in words.

Xu Ran opened his eyes, leaned over to kiss Liu Tong’s forehead and said softly, “Tongtong, wake up! You still have us. Did you hear it just now? Baozi was crying outside, and he was worried about you.”

“There is also Tangtang and Guoguo. They must be upset, too. They probably don’t even know what’s going on and why you’re in a coma. And there is me, too. Tongtong, are you going to sleep like this forever? Don’t you want to see me again?”

“Tongtong, I know you’re sad. You’re sad because he’s gone before you even knew he was there. And I’m sad, too. All of us are sad, but what I want the most right now is that you wake up. So wake up and let’s give a name to the child who has no chance to come to this world, ok?

“If he doesn’t have a name, he’ll be bullied by other ghosts even when he’s down there. Tongtong, let’s give him a name and burn him some paper money, then he won’t be bullied. Tongtong, can you wake up? Wake up and look at me. We haven’t spoken for so long. I miss you.”

Xu Ran did not believe in ghosts, but at this moment, he had to sat these things. He was guessing what Liu Tong would think.

Time passed slowly. Xu Ran said so many things in Liu Tong’s ears, from their initial difficulties to the days when they slowly recovered. He also talked about their small dispute over the years and the how good Liu Tong is in his mind.

“I have a feeling…”

The sudden voice stopped Xu Ran who had been talking. Xu Ran looked at the bed and noticed that Liu Tong opened his eyes, which made Xu Ran ecstatic.

Xu Ran said happily, “Tongtong, you’re awake. I’ll call Lu Qi over to take a look.”

Xu Ran was about to get up when he said this, but Liu Tong put his hand on him and stopped him . Xu Ran looked at Liu Tong with a puzzled look.

Xu Ran couldn’t see the expression on Liu Tong’s face. Xu Ran only heard him say softly, “Ran, I didn’t feel nothing when this child came. I’ve been feeling a pain in my stomach but we were busy at the time, so I didn’t say anything. Ran, he would not be gone if I told you. If I told you that you would definitely take me to see the physician, then we would know that he was there and he would be fine. Ran, it’s all me, it’s all my fault. I made him disappear. Ran, will he hate me? ”

Liu Tong held Xu Ran’s hand more and more tightly as if he wanted to crush his hand. Xu Ran let him hold it without saying a word.

He adjusted his facial expression and gave Liu Tong a smile that was uglier than crying, “Tongtong, he is our child. How can he hate you? Tongtong, let’s eat something first. You’ve been bleeding a lot and you’ve hurt yourself. You need to recuperate quickly.

Liu Tong could certainly see the worry on Xu Ran’s face, but as soon as he thought of the lost child, he lost all his appetite.

Liu Tong shook his head and said, “Ran, I don’t want to eat. I’ll take my medicine! I heard what you just said. I’ll get better as soon as possible. Let’s give him a name and burn him some paper money.”

There was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth as if he had seen the picture.

Looking at Liu Tong’s smile, Xu Ran felt more and more distressed. It was not Liu Tong’s fault that they lost the child, but his. It was his fault that he didn’t notice that Liu Tong was not feeling well. It was because he let Liu Tong do too much work and made him too tired that the child left.

“Bang!” There was a loud bang as the person outside broke into the house.

Xu Ran looked back and frowned, but he couldn’t say anything to blame them as soon as he saw the anxious expressions on their faces. He knew they were worried too.

Baozi ran the mostq quickly. After the door was opened, he rushed to the bedside. First, he yelled for a while and stopped when he saw Liu Tong sitting on the bed.

Baozi’s face was full of tears, his eyes were swollen like peaches, and his mouth was still twitching. You could see how sadly he was crying.

Xu Ran held him in his arms and consoled him, “Baozi, don’t cry anymore. You won’t look good if you keep crying. Daddy is fine as you can see. Just stop crying, okay?”

Baozi tried hard to speak, but he sobbed too hard to speak.

There were many people standing beside Liu Tong’s bed, so Xu Ran simply carried Baozi aside to comfort him.

Baozi sobbed for a while and finally came over. He asked Xu Ran, “Dad, what’s wrong with Daddy? I saw a lot of blood outside. They said it was from Daddy.”

Thinking of all the blood that had flowed on the ground all the way, Xu Ran felt so painful. It was their child!

However, Xu Ran couldn’t say this to Baozi. He didn’t let Baozi know that he should have a younger brother who died before he was born.

Xu Ran said softly to Baozi, “It’s fine. Daddy fell when we went back. He was bleeding from his leg. The bleeding has stopped now and it will be good in a few days. Baozi, don’t cry again. You are a childe. If you cry ugly, Qing Shu won’t want you. Don’t you want to look as good as Qing Shu?”

It was easier to distract Baozi than Tangtang and Guoguot. As soon as Baozi heard Xu Ran’s words, he tried his best not to cry. He wiped the tears on his face with his hand.

Xu Ran helped him wipe and promised him that Daddy was fine several times before Baozi finally stopped crying.

He nestled in Xu Ran’s arms with his eyes red, unwilling to move.

Xu Ran looked at Liu Tong’s bedside and found that everyone stood there was speaking to him. He carried Baozi to the door. Gu Yu was just standing at the door. Xu Ran told him, “Go to the kitchen to see if Tongtong’s medicine is ready, and send it to him as soon as it is ready. Don’t forget the porridge.”

Gu Yu nodded repeatedly. As soon as he turned his head, he saw someone carrying something over. Xiao Qingyun followed behind him and his eyes were red, too. He probably had been aware that Liu Tong’s child was gone.

Xu Ran put Baozi down, took the medicine and went through the crowd to feed Liu Tong the medicine.

Liu Tong saw that the medicine was very black and he didn’t want to drink it at all, but he couldn’t refuse it because there were so many people watching here. He felt sorry to let them worry about him.

Liu Tong gritted his teeth and drank up the medicine. Xu Ran immediately brought the porridge to him. The medicine was probably too bitter, so Liu Tong didn’t refuse Xu Ran’s porridge. After taking a few bites of it, he shook his head and said, “Ran, I don’t want to eat more. I have no appetite.”

Xu Ran frowned, but seeing Liu Tong’s face turning pale due to excessive loss of blood, he couldn’t say anything else. He put the porridge next to him and let him sleep.

Liu Tong’s mind was in a daze because of the excessive loss of blood. Now that Xu Ran told him to sleep, he immediately fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

I went to the signing ceremony yesterday. There was only one idea in my head. There were really a lot of people in China. ┗|｀O′|┛
