Er De opened the door, took the food and put it on the table. My heart was pounding. If I hadn't used my acting skills to disguise it, my heart would have jumped out of my throat.
"Eat." She said coldly.
I thanked her, opened the bag, took out the lunch box, and tore open the cutlery bag. Sadly, I found my chopsticks shaking a little. I was really afraid that she would suddenly turn her phone over and see the call interface.
I lowered my head and ate, although I had no appetite, I couldn't swallow it.
Er De didn't go back. Her hand reached for the phone, and my heart went cold inch by inch.
I shouted, "Ah Jing, help me!"
Er De's face darkened. She looked at her phone and slammed it against the wall. "Chen Qing, I underestimated you. How dare you touch my phone!"
I shook my head and dragged my heavy body back to the sofa. "Er De, let me go, let me go and my children go, I beg you..."
"Hehe, let you go? When you poisoned my father, why didn't you think of keeping him alive? Chen Qing, if I had known that you would become my father's enemy, I would not have been your friend or worked for you for so long!" She didn't know where to find a golf club. The silver golf club was dazzling. I was really afraid that she would hit me.
"But we are friends, aren't we? I've treated you well, too. And Tan Jie, have you forgotten?"
Her grip on the club gave a thump, and the name Tan Jie seemed to ripple in her heart.
There was a fleeting touch in her eyes, and she hesitated for a moment about my movements. "Is he back?"
"Yes, he's in North city right now. Have you forgotten the old you? I have a longing for love, a passion for life, and even a simple desire to like someone. Once things are done, I can't turn back. Er De, I know you hate me, and you should hate me, but I beg you to let go of the child in my belly, okay?"
"You have people you care about, so have you ever thought that I have people I care about?" She asked me at the top of her voice.
I was filled with fear for her at this moment. "I don't know about your relationship with Master Hu. He threatened my family, and I acted in self-defense. Er De, do you understand?"
"No! I don't understand. I only have dad as my family. He's my only family. You've ruined my spiritual sustenance. I want to make you restless and never be happy!" Her eyes suddenly became fierce.
I arched up and covered my stomach with both hands. I was so scared when she swung her cue. I tried my best to block it, but there was still a sharp pain in my stomach, the pain of tearing and peeling.
All of a sudden, my body softened. I frowned and broke out in cold sweat. My lips trembled and I murmured, "Child..."
I felt blood coming out of my body, like a stream, slowly, continuously...
"Save me... Save me..." I reached down and touched my lower body. Something sticky was all over my hand. "My child, he's right. Er De, save me..."
The club in Er De's hand fell to the ground with a bang. She covered her mouth and her eyes were filled with guilt and regret. "What did I do? What did I do?"
I shook my head. "Call an ambulance, quick."
Panicked, she picked up her phone and called a pregnant woman.
When the ambulance arrived, I really wanted to stop the blood from flowing out. Naive, I thought that the child would be fine. Er De squatted in the corner, not daring to look at me.
The ambulance arrived and the doctors and nurses carried me to the car. I had a needle in my hand. Maybe it was too much blood. I felt my consciousness blur and finally fainted.
About a century later, I slowly woke up and looked at the white ceiling, the hooks made of iron wire, and the transparent bag filled with liquid, with complicated words that I couldn't see clearly.
As my vision became clearer, Fu Jing's face entered my eyes.
"Xiao Qing, how are you feeling?" He asked me with concern.
Feeling? I felt like I didn't feel anything all over. After a while, the pain hit me. My lower body hurt so much that I wanted to scream and cry.
Can you give me a painkiller? No, the painkillers are filled with medicine. The medicine is not good for the baby. I think we should stop." I said to myself.
There was something wrong with Fu Jing's eyes. I was so sensitive that I caught him wanting to say something and stopped.
I slowly raised my hand and caressed my belly. My bulging belly flattened out?! There was a flash of lightning in my head, and my thoughts stopped abruptly.
"Where's the child?" My eyes widened.
Fu Jing hugged me tightly. "We already have Tingsheng. No, Xiao Qing, we don't want children."
"What nonsense are you talking about? He's here. How can he not? This is a gift from heaven."
When I left Tingsheng and Fu Jing, I couldn't have survived without this unexpected child, so I always thought it was a gift from god.
"Xiao Qing..." Fu Jing called out my name, each sound heartbreaking enough.
Although I don't want to admit it, I still have to admit that the child is gone. I didn't protect him well. He was lost.
I closed my eyes and two lines of clear tears flowed down the corners of my eyes, winding into my hair.
For a moment, I couldn't accept this reality. I didn't eat, drink, or sleep. I kept my eyes open and endured the pain from my body. Fu Jing was with me all day, taking care of me.
When I talk to him, it's just a few words. Many times, I like to hold him, and the feeling of fullness brought by holding him will ease my emptiness and coldness, so that I won't be alone in the dark and grope for the exit and the end.
"Ah Jing, can I rely on you? It's so tiring to be alone." I looked up at him.
He held me in his arms. "Silly, we are husband and wife. Although there are no wedding vows about life and death, I am your reliance. Your tree, of course you can rely on me."
I arched into his arms. "You must be blaming me too. I can't even keep my child. What are you doing alive?"
"Nonsense, I've never blamed you, not even for a second." He stroked my hair. "You brought me a roar. You made me feel like a father. I'm grateful that it's not too late."
Just as Fu Jing was comforting me, Tan Jie came, hugging Tingsheng in one hand and carrying a lot of food and tonics in the other.
"Grandma wu invited someone to make soup for you and your dinner. Eat it while it's hot." Tan Jie said gently to me.
As I looked at those things, an unknown fire suddenly erupted in my heart. I raised my hand and knocked over the soup bowl he handed me. The sound of broken porcelain pieces sounded rather harsh.
