Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle Novel - Chapter 937
Chapter 937: I’m Here, I’ll Always Be Here for You
Little Gu Yelin who was away in the Capital sneezed. Who’s talking badly about me?
Little Lemon heard his words and she lifted his head to look at him. “But Brother Niuniu is not just any boy, he’s my future husband.”
Fu Qinglun was still behaving smugly and he froze once he heard that, “…”
How had his beautiful little daughter been brainwashed already? Little Lemon then pulled her underwear up and walked over. She lifted her head to look at Daddy’s tall build before tugging on his trousers with her tiny hand. “Are you really going to marry another woman?”
Fu Qinglun turned around, bending over to ruffle Little Lemon’s hair. “Daddy will not marry another woman, Daddy is just wanting to force your mommy to make a decision.”
“But I don’t think forcing her will work, you’ll probably only force mommy away. Girls need to be coaxed, why don’t you use honeyed words with Mommy instead?”
Fu Qinglun shook his head. “Mommy is different from other girls. She hasn’t received much family warmth and love since young and as a result of that, she has chosen to close herself off. Daddy has done a lot of wrong and hurt Mommy without realizing it. Your mommy is choosing to push Daddy away even more now. Daddy would have used honeyed words on her long ago if it would work but sadly, it doesn’t. Mommy is not willing to give Daddy a chance, Daddy can only use such an ultimatum.”
Fu Qinglun then raised the corners of his lips. “This is the greatest gamble. Daddy is betting that Mommy still loves Daddy.”
To be blunt, if she no longer loved him, nothing would work no matter what he did. He would not be able to keep her if she no longer loved him, she would leave after all.
But if she still loved him, he would never allow her to take a step back anymore. He wanted a chance with her.
Little Lemon nodded, acting as though she understood it all. Fu Qinglun then planted a kiss on Little Lemon’s cheek.
Knock knock. Lin Shiyu sounded worried outside the door as Fu Qinglun had never taken care of Little Lemon by himself. “Little Lemon, are you done?”
“I’m done, Mommy.” Little Lemon happily ran over to open the door.
The bathroom door opened and Lin Shiyu lowered her eyes to look at Little Lemon but she gaped. Little Lemon had a nosebleed.
“Little Lemon!” Lin Shiyu exclaimed.
Suddenly, Little Lemon’s eyes shut and she fainted.
Lin Shiyu stretched her arms out to hold Little Lemon but Fu Qinglun was quicker than her. He had already caught hold of Little Lemon.
“Hurry up and go to the hospital, I’ll call Sikong!”
…
At the hospital.
The red light outside the operating theater lit up and Lin Shiyu just stood along the corridor, her body all stiff. She looked at the red light dazedly. Just how many times did she have to go through the exact same process in the past three years? It was the same. She would have to stand along the corridor and watch Little Lemon get pushed into the operating theater for emergency treatment.
Her limbs were cold, as though there was no temperature.
Sikong was geared in his mask and scrubs and he quickly stepped into the operating theater. Bam. The door closed in front of Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu slumped against the door, there was a panel on the door but it was covered with a curtain. She wasn’t able to see a thing at all.
But she just stayed there, trying hard to peer inside. She scratched at the door with her fingernails till it started hurting.
“Shi’shi, let go!” A deep voice was heard from behind. Her hand was held onto by a large hand.
Lin Shiyu turned behind to look, her soulless gaze landed on the man. Fu Qinglun had arrived and stood before her.
She slowly let go.
Fu Qinglun held onto her hands, they were so cold and her fingers were all stiff. Her fingernails were all bloody as she had scratched at the door too hard.
As though someone was squeezing his heart tightly, it hurt to even breathe. It was his first time seeing her behave this way when Little Lemon had to be rushed for emergency treatment.
Her eyes went blank and she turned soulless. She looked like she was about to collapse anytime, but she still stood strong.
She was looking over Little Lemon, waiting for her.
With Mommy here, Little Lemon wouldn’t be afraid.
How much did she have to suffer for the three years that he wasn’t there for them?
“Fu Qinglun, nothing bad will happen to Little Lemon right?” Lin Shiyu looked at him for affirmation.
Fu Qinglun nodded. “I’m here, nothing will happen, don’t be afraid.”
“But…”
“There’s no ‘but’, let me take you inside to check on her now.”
Lin Shiyu’s eyes lit up instantly. “Can I really… enter the operating theater?”
…
They both put on sterile clothes and entered the operating theater. Fu Qinglun brought Lin Shiyu to see the situation through the glass windows. Little Lemon was on the operating table to undergo surgery.
With her lashes fluttering from the weight of the tears she was holding back, Lin Shiyu’s nose and eyes were red. Tears welled up in her eyes but she didn’t cry.
She suddenly felt some warmth. Fu Qinglun had hugged her from behind, holding her tightly in his embrace.
He planted a kiss on her cold cheek and with a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, “Just let it all out, you’ll feel better if you just cry.”
Lin Shiyu could only watch over Little Lemon from the room and she said, “Little Lemon had to stay in an incubator once she was born. The doctors would warn me to be mentally prepared every single day, Little Lemon’s life would be in danger anytime. I would secretly cry every night during that time.
“It was only after some time I was allowed to carry Little Lemon in my arms. Although she was really frail and small, her eyes were huge and she would just look at me. There was once my tears dripped onto her face and she was so scared and started wailing.
“From that day onwards, I don’t dare to cry at all.”
Fu Qinglun furrowed his brows while listening to their experiences. Unbidden tears welled up in his eyes and he turned her around, holding onto the back of her head while hugging her tightly.
His lips were on her hair as he murmured, “Shi’shi, you can cry now. I’m here, I’ll always be here for you.”
…
Little Lemon was sent into the ICU and she still hadn’t woken up yet. It was a critical 24 hours for her.
Lin Shiyu had been with Little Lemon at the hospital for the entire night and she had finally fallen asleep around dawn by her bed.
But she suddenly felt something cooling on her fingers. When she slowly opened her eyes, under the faint lighting, Fu Qinglun was holding onto her hands. He was wiping her injured fingernails with alcohol swabs carefully.
She wanted to move, but she had no energy to do so. With every time that Little Lemon fell sick, she would also be exhausted. So she only lowered her lashes and looked at him while he continued wiping her fingernails, just like that.
