Upon seeing Du Heng, Xixi's father immediately showed extreme enthusiasm and excitement, reaching out his hand from afar. "Doctor Du, thank you, thank you."
Du Heng quickly reached out, and their hands joined together. "Don't mention it; it's what I should do."
But Xixi's father didn't let go, instead gripping Du Heng's hand with both of his own. "Doctor Du, I really want to thank you. If it weren't for you that day, I might have... might have..."
Before he could finish two sentences, Xixi's father's eyes welled up, and he began to choke with emotion.
As a single father who had raised his daughter from a toddler to her current age, it could be said his entire essence, qi, and spirit were devoted to her. It could even be said that this girl was the hope and motivation for his life. He couldn't imagine what would become of him if something happened to her.
