Chapter 221: She Needed To Think

She came over, put the doll in her daughter’s arms, and gently carried her from the bed—allowing her head to lean on her own shoulders. As tired as she was, she still wanted to carry her daughter. It gave her strength and stability. Her mother’s chest was not wide, her shoulders not thick; but she continued to be a source of support for her child.

“Miss Xia, we need you to come for a while. There is a test you have to do to see if your bone marrow is a suitable match for your daughter.” The doctor lowered his voice intentionally for fear of waking the child up. Her small face looked exhausted. She needed to rest more. She wouldn’t be able to feel pain when she’s sleeping.

At three years old, what could she possibly know or understand? The pain was too much for an adult. It was cruel to let a child as young as her to bear it.

Xia Ruoxin nodded her head and carried her daughter towards her ward. She rested her cheek against her daughter’s. It felt warm yet cool. She also placed the doll in her arms.

“Rainy, do you know? That you are the bravest child Mommy has ever seen. For you, Mommy will be strong. Okay?

“Mommy will be right beside you with Dolly. I will never ever leave you.”

She placed the child carefully on the bed and was soon getting up. Then, she heard Rainy mumbled for her.

Her hand went gently to her daughter’s face, and she made sure that the doll was in her arms. Instinctively, Rainy’s hands reached out and clutched the doll tight.

Finally, she stood up. As she wiped her tears with her hands, she told herself that she must stop crying. What could she accomplish with crying? Her daughter needed her. Crying wouldn’t solve anything. Her tears were cheap. No matter how much she cried, it would not earn her a single cent.

…

Xia Ruoxin rolled her sleeve up in the examination room. As she sat calmly, her downcast eyes showed exhaustion. For a single mother like her, the doctor gave a low sigh. It had been tough for this woman. She had to bear the burden alone. Would she be able to? The road ahead would be harder.

“Miss Xia, don’t worry. We will know once the test results are out.” The doctor paused. “What about the child’s father? If it is possible, we can run a test on the child’s father for a match. The chances of finding a match will certainly increase.”

Xia Ruoxin bit on her pale red lip. Its faint color revealed much exhaustion. Her hands clasped together. She did not know the answer to his question.

Her daughter’s father. Would she be able to make him come? Would he believe that Rainy was his child or hate her, like how he hated Xia Ruoxin?

She would not allow another accident to happen in Rainy’s life. She could not afford to. Neither could Rainy’s weak and fragile body. She would not be able to go through another accident.

She needed to think about this and consider it carefully. She raised her head and lightly nodded. “I will think of something.”

That’s right. She would think of something. There must be a way. No matter what, she must save Rainy. Unknown to anyone, she had made a sad decision in her heart.
