My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child
Chapter 232 Father's Love is Boundless
There was a flicker of nervousness and anticipation in Qiao Qin's eyes. She pursed her lips slightly and nodded gently to Qiao Lingang. The two looked at each other, and at that moment, it seemed as if an invisible electric current was passing between them.
They waited quietly, and the sound of their heartbeats seemed particularly clear in this silent space.
Finally, after a while, the kidnappers' conversation gradually disappeared.
Qiao Qin and Qiao Lingang walked quietly to the door, their steps as light as cats, afraid to make any sound.
Qiao Qin stretched out her trembling hand, gently grasped the door handle, and tried to open the door, however, the door was locked tightly and could not be opened.
They did not give up and walked to the window again. The glass on the window was already a little blurry, and through the glass, they could only see the blurry scene outside.
Qiao Qin and Qiao Lingang worked together to try to push the window open. They tried their best, their shoulders pressed tightly against the window frame, with strained expressions on their faces. After some effort, they finally pushed the window open.
At that moment, a breath of fresh air blew towards me.
A joyful smile appeared on Qiao Qin's face, and she carefully climbed out of the window. They moved extremely cautiously and did not dare to make any sound.
However, Qiao Qin's clothes rubbed gently against the window frame, making a slight sound, which was particularly harsh in this quiet environment.
At that moment, their hearts were in their throats, fearing that they would be discovered by the kidnappers. Fortunately, there was no movement outside the house.
Then, Qiao Qin and Qiao Lingang walked quietly along the wall. The bricks and stones on the wall were a bit rough and rubbed their palms and clothes. Their eyes kept scanning the surroundings. They successfully went around the kidnappers and dived into the woods not far away.
Not long after the two men escaped, they had no time to be happy before they began to run for their lives. They had to escape far enough before the kidnappers discovered them.
however.
They had not run far when Qiao Qin began to feel a stomachache. The pain came so suddenly that she was unprepared. Her face turned pale in an instant, like a piece of white paper.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Qiao Qin's forehead, flickering in the dim light. Her body was slightly bent, and her hands were tightly covering her stomach, trying to relieve the pain.
Qiao Lingang quickly took her to find a place to rest. Quickly and gently, he helped Qiao Qin sit down.
His eyes were full of worry, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he asked anxiously: "Qin'er, how are you?"
Qiao Qin bit her lip, trying to endure the pain and said, "I'm fine, I just have a severe stomachache."
Qiao Lingang looked at his daughter's painful expression, his heart filled with distress. He gently stroked Qiao Qin's hair, his eyes full of love.
"Qin'er, you take a rest here first. I'll go see if there's any mountain spring water nearby."
Qiao Qin reached out and held him back, saying firmly, "You go first, and help me notify Huo Yan."
Time is running out. If they all stay here, they will be caught sooner or later, and the situation will be even worse.
however.
Qiao Lingang shook his head without hesitation, tightly held Qiao Qin's hand, and said in a deep voice: "No, I can't leave you behind, we have to go together."
The two people argued fiercely, and the air around them seemed to be solidified by their tension. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a depressing atmosphere enveloped the entire earth.
Suddenly, there was a noisy sound of footsteps. Qiao Qin and Qiao Lingang's hearts instantly rose to their throats. They looked at each other in horror, and an ominous premonition surged in their hearts.
"Oh no, it's the kidnappers!" Qiao Lingang whispered, his face turned pale instantly. He quickly looked around, looking for a place to hide.
At this time, the wind seemed to blow even harder, and the leaves were blown all over the sky. Qiao Lingang's eyes suddenly fell on a big tree not far away, and he saw that there seemed to be a tree hole there.
"Qin'er, come on, hide in the tree hole." Qiao Lingang said anxiously, pushing Qiao Qin towards the tree hole.
Qiao Qin hesitated for a moment. She looked at the person in front of her, her eyes full of reluctance and worry. "Then what are you going to do?"
"Don't worry about me, just hide and don't make any sound." Qiao Lingang's voice was firm and powerful, and his eyes were full of determination.
Qiao Qin bit her lip, but now was not the time to hesitate. She quickly got into the tree hole, curled up her body, and tried not to make any sound.
After watching Qiao Qin hide, Qiao Lingang took a deep look at the tree hole, then turned around and walked towards the kidnappers who were chasing them. Cold sweat broke out on his palms, but his eyes remained firm.
"Where is that woman? Hand her over quickly!" the kidnapper leader said viciously, his face full of ferocity and greed.
Qiao Lingang remained silent, just staring at the kidnappers, his eyes revealing a fearless courage.
The kidnappers were furious when they saw Qiao Lingang didn't say anything. They rushed over and beat him up. Qiao Lingang was beaten black and blue, but he bit his lips tightly and refused to tell the whereabouts of his daughter.
Qiao Qin watched all this in the tree hole, her body trembling constantly, tears blurring her eyes, but she could only pray silently in her heart.
"Dad, nothing must happen to you."
The kidnappers beat him more and more fiercely. Qiao Linggang's body was covered with scars and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to give in.
"Will you tell me or not? Where is that woman?" one person roared, his eyes filled with anger and impatience.
Qiao Lingang raised his head with difficulty and looked at the man. His eyes were full of ridicule and disdain, but his weak voice was extremely firm.
"Don't even think about finding her. I won't tell you."
The man was so angry that his face turned blue and he kicked Qiao Lingang hard in the abdomen. Qiao Lingang bent over in pain, his face was as pale as paper, and his breath became weaker and weaker.
Qiao Qin watched her father being tortured in the tree hole, her heart ached as if being cut by a knife. She almost wanted to rush out right now and ask the gang to stop beating him, but she knew that she couldn't do that and let her father's efforts go to waste.
As time passed, Qiao Lingang's consciousness gradually became blurred and he was about to stop breathing completely. At the critical moment, a burst of urgent sirens came from a distance. The lights of the police car flickered in the dim environment, like a beacon in the darkness.
Huo Yan rushed out of the car, his eyes full of anxiety and worry. He looked around, looking for Qiao Qin.
At this time, Qiao Qin was curled up beside a tree, her face full of fear and exhaustion. Her clothes were torn by branches, her hair was disheveled, and there were still traces of tears on her face. The moment she saw Huo Yan, an indescribable joy and peace of mind suddenly welled up in her eyes.
Huo Yan saw Qiao Qin at a glance, ran over quickly, squatted down, and gently held Qiao Qin's hand.
"Qin'er, how are you? Are you hurt?" His voice was gentle and anxious, his eyes full of concern.
Qiao Qin shook her head weakly, tears welling up in her eyes again, and she said in a trembling voice: "Huo Yan, save Qiao Lingang, he did this to protect me..."
Huo Yan hugged Qiao Qin tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
At the same time, the police had arrested all the kidnappers and found Qiao Lingang lying on the ground covered with bruises. Huo Yan looked at Qiao Lingang's miserable condition and quickly sent him to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Qiao Qin's body was shaking in Huo Yan's arms, her heart filled with fear and anxiety. She clutched Huo Yan's clothes tightly, as if that was her only support.
When he arrived at the hospital, Qiao Lingang was quickly rushed to the emergency room.
Qiao Qin and Huo Yan waited anxiously outside the emergency room. Time seemed to be getting longer and longer. Every second seemed like a century. Their hearts were filled with worry and expectation.
Qiao Qin kept pacing outside the emergency room, her hands clenched tightly together, her nails digging deep into the flesh, and she kept muttering, "Dad, you have to be okay."
Huo Yan stayed close to Qiao Qin, gently holding her hand, trying to give her some comfort.
After a long wait, the doctor finally came out of the emergency room. Qiao Qin hurriedly went up to him, her eyes full of anticipation, and asked anxiously.
"Doc, how is he?
The doctor's face was heavy, and he sighed softly: "I'm sorry, the patient's injuries are very serious. We have tried our best to save him, but he may never wake up in this life."
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, instantly making Qiao Qin fall into despair. Her body shook and she almost fell to the ground. Huo Yan hurriedly supported her and held her tightly in his arms.
Qiao Qin's tears flowed out like a flood, her heart filled with pain and sorrow, she choked and said, "How could this happen?"
She couldn't help but rush into the ward. Looking at Qiao Linggang's lifeless face, her heart was filled with grief. Qiao Qin gently held her father's hand, and tears fell on his hand drop by drop.
"You must wake up. I have a lot to say to you."
Huo Yan stood by, watching the scene silently, gently hugged Qiao Qin's shoulders, and said distressedly: "Qin'er, don't cry, I will find the best doctor in the country to treat him."
Qiao Qin nodded, snuggled in Huo Yan's arms, and absorbed the warmth from him.
