Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

Lin Wangshu's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and she threw down her luggage and went to the hospital with them.

On the way, He Xiao burst into tears and told Lin Wangshu everything she knew.

It turned out that Zhou's mother didn't want to waste money and insisted that Bai Ge give birth at home. However, she had a difficult labor and the baby was about to suffocate, so Zhou's mother hurriedly took her to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, the baby was born safely, but Bai Ge suffered severe bleeding and has been staying in the hospital ever since.

Because the bleeding kept stopping and starting, the hospital couldn't do anything and could only tell people to prepare for the worst.

It was only then that Bai Ge remembered to contact He Xiao and the others.

Lin Wangshu thought of that gentle and warm-hearted girl, never expecting that she would soon pass away. He was filled with grief, and tears welled up in his eyes.

When they finally saw Bai Ge, they discovered that she was lying in bed, so thin that her body was barely visible.

Her once fair and rosy cheeks were now withered and shriveled, and her lips were not only pale but also chapped.

Those eyes, which used to always be smiling, have now become like lifeless fish eyes, only brightening with surprise when they see the three of them arrive.

Lin Wangshu covered her mouth and turned her head away, tears silently streaming down her face. In just a few months, a beautiful young girl had become like a dying lamp, her life force exhausted.

He Xiao walked over in disbelief, her voice trembling as she said, "Sister Baige, you... how did you become like this?"

Song Jing wanted to hold her hand, but looking at that withered hand, she only dared to gently place it on her, her eyes filled with heartache as she looked at Bai Ge.

Lin Wangshu wanted to pick up the kettle to pour her a glass of water, but her hand felt light, and when she opened it, it was empty.

Looking at Bai Ge lying there alone, Lin Wangshu suppressed her anger and asked, "Sister Bai Ge, where are the Zhou family members? Did they just leave you lying here alone?"

A hint of sadness flashed across Bai Ge's eyes, but she forced a smile. "Let's not talk about them. We haven't seen each other in so long. I want to have a good talk with you all."

Hearing her weak, feeble voice, Lin Wangshu knew that she probably didn't have much time left.

Holding back her tears, Lin Wangshu smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Bai Ge raised her thin arm and gently wiped away the tears on He Xiao's face. "You're still the same as when I first met you. You were scolded by the captain, and you're crying like this now, with your eyes and nose all red."

He Xiao's tears flowed even more fiercely. Back then, she was young and it was the first time she had left home. She was scolded and then secretly cried in her dormitory.

Bai Ge noticed this and not only comforted her but also patiently taught her without thinking she was stupid. In He Xiao's heart, Bai Ge was like her own older sister.

"I'll cry again in the future, and I'll cry even harder. You'll have to come and comfort me then!"

Bai Ge touched her hair, smiled weakly, tears welling in her eyes, but said nothing.

"I grew up without parents and never enjoyed a single day of being loved by my family, so I longed to get married and have children, so that I would finally have a family. But I never expected..."

Bai Ge gave a wry smile and didn't continue, "I finally have a child now, a beautiful little girl."

"I long to be there for her as she grows up, to hear her call me 'Mom,' and to watch her get married and build her career."

At this point, Bai Ge wore an expectant smile, but it was quickly replaced by a look of resentment and helplessness.

"But I won't be able to see her anymore. Soon she will be like me, a child without a mother. My mother-in-law doesn't like her, saying she's a money-loser. What will she do when she gets a stepmother?"

The white dove's cries were filled with the pain of a mother's love for her child and her worries about her future.

"Don't worry, we'll be her godmothers from now on. We'll help you watch her grow up and we'll never let anyone bully her!"

Lin Wangshu was an orphan in his previous life, and he empathized with Bai Ge, so he assured her.

He Xiao nodded, tears still glistening on her face, "Yes, Sister Baige, don't worry, I will treat her like my own child!"

Bai Ge turned to look at He Xiao, a hint of reluctance flashing in her eyes, "Thank you, Xiao Xiao, for taking good care of my daughter in the future."

Just then, Zhou's mother came in from outside the door, followed by a girl who looked like Zhou Lin's younger sister, Zhou Mei.

"Wangshu is here too! Xiaobai has been talking about you all the time!"

When Zhou's mother saw Lin Wangshu, her face showed a joyful surprise, as if she had found something she had lost. She held Lin Wangshu's hand tightly and spoke to her in a kind and gentle tone.

Lin Wangshu looked at the smile on her face, but suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She struggled to pull her hand away and her attitude was very cold.

Zhou's mother didn't mind. Seeing that the three of them had red and swollen eyes, she raised her hand to wipe away non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes. "I'm relieved that you're here. With Xiaobai's health, who knows when she might... You can see her one last time."

Her words infuriated Lin Wangshu and the other two. The person wasn't even dead yet, wasn't she cursing Bai Ge?

"Aunt Zhou, if you're really free, go get some hot water. Don't waste your breath here; there's no water for you!"

Lin Wangshu looked at her hypocritical appearance and sneered.

"How can you talk like that? My mother is your elder, isn't she?"

When Zhou Mei saw her mother being ridiculed, she was determined to stand up for her.

"Sister Baige is your family's benefactor, so how did you treat her? How dare you act like an elder in front of us?"

He Xiao had long disliked this family, and now she couldn't bear it any longer, speaking to the mother and daughter very rudely.

"Who do you think you are, having no right to interfere in our family affairs!" Zhou Mei lost her temper and actually rolled up her sleeves, ready to hit someone.

Zhou's mother quickly grabbed her and whispered in her ear, "What are you doing? What if you mess things up?"

Bai Ge was also a little anxious. She propped herself up and tried to pull He Xiao away, saying, "Xiao Xiao, don't say that."

Then, turning to Zhou's mother, whose eyes were cold, he said, "Mother, Xiaoxiao has a bad temper, please don't blame her."

Her tone was pleading.

Zhou's mother naturally understood what she meant; she was thinking about how she could treat He Xiao well in the future. However... her gaze drifted to Lin Wangshu, who now had a better option.

Then Zhou's mother showed a generous smile, "How could I blame her? She was just worried about you."

Seeing Bai Ge's cowardly behavior, He Xiao felt a surge of frustration, but seeing her weak appearance, he could only suppress his anger.

The time was almost right, Zhou's mother cleared her throat as she looked at the white dove.

Bai Ge understood her implication. Her lowered eyes showed some struggle, but thinking of her infant daughter, she hardened her heart and said, "Mother, I want to see Xiao Guai one more time. This may be the last time I see her."

Because the child was very healthy, he was taken home and raised a few days after birth.

"Okay, I'll have your sister go home and bring her back." Seeing how cooperative she was, Zhou's mother pretended to wipe away tears to hide the joy in her eyes.

“It’s just Meimei alone, I’m afraid we won’t be able to take care of her on the way, otherwise…” Zhou’s mother’s gaze swept over Lin Wangshu and the other two, “Why don’t we let Wangshu come along?”

"Is it alright?" Zhou's mother looked at Lin Wangshu and asked.

"Mother!" Bai Ge exclaimed in surprise, not expecting her to change her mind and replace her at the last minute.
