Lu Ruping and Wei Shanshan could only leave with their faces covered in dirt. Before leaving, they grinded their teeth as they said, "Wei Zhanyan, this time you can be more ruthless. We won't let you get away with this."
After the mother and daughter pair left, the room was completely silent. There was not a single sound coming from the huge villa. The deathly silence caused people to be unable to help from panicking. Zhan Yan lied on the bed. Her stomach throbbed harder and harder, as cold sweat flowed through her thin clothes. Her tears were always in the corners of her eyes, but she still forced herself to endure.
"Little Yan, your mother's heart hurts, so you have to be good." Her palm gently caressed her abdomen, and the child in her abdomen seemed to be able to understand her words. Very quickly, the pain in her abdomen lessened.
The corner of Zhan Yan's mouth held a smile, but her tears slowly flowed down. She felt that she had fallen into endless darkness, and Little Yan was the only light and hope left in the darkness.
Zhan Yan did not mention anything to Du Xiaomo about the freezing of assets. She took all her jewelry and pawned it for a while, although the price was very low, it was enough to support her for a period of time.
The days seemed to pass peacefully. Until one day two weeks later, Zhan Yan received a call from Gao Yuxuan.
"Zhan Yan, has Shan Shan gone to where you are?" His tone was anxious.
"No, what happened?"
"Shan Shan borrowed a usury loan, so she can't repay it. She's now driving to your hospital to find you. Be careful, I'll be there right away." Gao Yuxuan worriedly warned.
"Yes." Zhan Yan hung up the phone, not putting the matter in her heart. Even if Wei Shanshan came looking for her, she would not have the money.
Not long after, Wei Shanshan really came knocking on her door. Zhan Yan was worried that her ruckus in the hospital would have a bad effect, so she arranged to meet her at the coffee shop opposite the hospital.
When Wei Shanshan saw her, she did not even bother to greet her and went straight to the point of asking for money.
"Believe it or not, I really don't have any money." Zhan Yan said calmly.
Hearing that, Wei Shanshan immediately became angry, and slapped the table hard, "Wei Zhanyan, I'm your blood sister, are you really not going to save me?"
Zhan Yan's gaze swept across her body indifferently. She was still wearing her famous brand and was dressed brilliantly. So. The reason she borrowed the loan was to buy these luxury goods.
"How much did you borrow?"
"One million." Wei Shanshan replied angrily.
A million was luckily not an astronomical number. With Gao Yuxuan's ability, he should not have any problem repayment. Selling your car and clothes and accessories would earn you at least five hundred thousand yuan, and Brother Yuxuan wouldn't just stand by and watch you die. Don't be like this next time, spending so much will only harm you. " Zhan Yan's tone was calm and indifferent, while he was thinking about how to persuade Gao Yuxuan to pay his debt.
But Wei Shanshan did not think that Gao Yuxuan would take the money to save her, he only wished that she would die quickly so that he could make space for him and Zhan Yan. Wei Zhanyan, those are usury loans, they will kill me. You are really vicious, to the point where you don't even care about your own sister. "
Zhan Yan lowered her head and remained silent. Was it a bit ironic that it was only at the end of the day that he remembered that they were blood sisters?
Wei Zhanyan, you remember this. It's not easy for me, so don't think about it too much. " Wei Shanshan's eyes turned red, she angrily turned and left.
Zhan Yan paid for the coffee, picked up her bag and walked out of the coffee shop.
The afternoon wasn't the time for traffic to peak, but Zhan Yan was still standing by the side of the road, observing the traffic rules. Only when the signal lights turned green did she step onto the zebra crossing.
Then, just as she walked to the middle of the road, a red sports car quickly rushed towards her. Zhan Yan recognized that it was Wei Shanshan's car.
Inside the car, Wei Shanshan's eyes were bloodshot, she had long lost her mind, she stepped on the gas pedal all the way to its end, at such a fast speed, Zhan Yan was not in a hurry to dodge, her body was hit by the car and thrown into the grass by the side of the road, she fainted on the spot.
Wei Shanshan did not stop at all as she drove away in her sports car.
This scene just happened to be seen by Gao Yuxuan, who had just arrived. He yelled out Zhan Yan's name like a madman, and carried her out of the green grass.
Zhan Yan was pushed into the operation room. Gao Yuxuan could only stand outside and wait, his shirt and hands were dyed red with blood.
"Where's Zhan Yan? What happened to her? " Du Xiaomo rushed over and pulled his collar as she interrogated loudly.
"Yes, it was a car accident." Gao Yuxuan was also shocked, he stammered as he replied.
"Car accident? How could there be a car accident! " Du Xiaomo's legs went weak and she fell on a bench outside the operation room.
Halfway through the operation, the doctor came out and took off the sterile blue mask. "Who are you?"
"Dr. Ma, how is she?" Du Xiaomo stepped forward and grabbed the doctor's arm.
Dr. Ma sighed and shook his head, "Your right hand has been fractured. Your child can no longer be preserved. The miscarriage isn't complete, and you still need to perform an operation to clear the palace. Sign it." Because Du Xiaomo was a nurse at the hospital, Dr. Ma naturally gave Gao Yuxuan the confirmation of the operation.
The hand holding the pen was trembling, the writing stick was crooked. The doctor took the confirmation and re-entered the operating room.
"Little Yan, Little Yan …" Du Xiaomo sat on the chair, covered her face and cried. If even she was feeling so sad about Xiao Yan, how could Zhan Yan withstand such a blow?
After the operation, Zhan Yan fainted for two days, and when she woke up again, she had been moved to the normal ward.
"Zhan Yan, you're finally awake." Du Xiaomo wiped away her tears and forced out a smile. Gao Yuxuan stood at the side and also guarded her for two days without closing his eyes.
Because he had just woken up, Zhan Yan's mind was completely blank. "What's wrong with me?" she asked blankly.
Du Xiaomo sniffed, and choked with sobs, "You were in a car accident, luckily you fell on the grass, otherwise your life would have ended."
"A car accident?" Zhan Yan muttered as her memories became clearer. When Wei Shanshan drove over, she was sent flying onto the green lawn. After feeling a sharp pain in her stomach, she lost consciousness. Thinking up to here, she got up uncontrollably, her palms tightly covering her belly, "Child, where is my child? How is she? "
Du Xiaomo's tears instantly fell. She once again pressed Zhan Yan onto the bed and cried bitterly, but she still told a lie, "It's alright, Little Yan is very good."
Hearing that her child was alright, Zhan Yan finally calmed down. She laid on the snow-white bed and returned Du Xiaomo a comforting smile, "What are you crying for?
"Zhan Yan..." Du Xiaomo managed to hold back her tears: "Zhan Yan, listen to me, you must calm down."
Zhan Yan nodded her head in hesitation. Her eyes were wide like mist, causing people's heart to ache.
"Because of the fierce impact, your right hand had a comminuted fracture. Even if you can recover, you won't be able to use the scalpel." Du Xiaomo just managed to finish her sentence after some hesitation.
Zhan Yan opened her eyes wide, clear tears rolling in her eyes, but stubbornly refused to fall. Her voice was very soft, like she was mumbling to herself. "I'll never be a doctor again, will I?"
"Zhan Yan..." Du Xiaomo wanted to comfort her, but the moment she said it, she choked with sobs.
Zhan Yan turned her body, her back facing them, "I'm fine, can you guys go out first? I want to be alone for a while. "
Gao Yuxuan stood rigidly in place, his eyes full of self-blame. Du Xiaomo took the initiative to stand up and pull down the corner of his clothes as the two of them left, one in front of the other.
The door to the ward closed softly, and Zhan Yan's body curled up at the foot of the bed. Her right hand that was in a cast smashed against the wall, she bit her lips, and tears silently flowed down her cheeks. Being an outstanding doctor was Zhan Yan's dream. Recalling the Hippocrates' oath during the graduation ceremony, tears once again fell from her eyes.
I am willing to perform my duties for the rest of my life in a spirit of purity and holiness. Let my life and my medical skills be unparalleled... However, her medical life had already ended with this accident. She didn't have the qualifications to put on the white gown that symbolized a divine existence, and couldn't personally welcome the birth of one angel after another.
Without her strong arm, the doctor was like a falcon with its wings cut off, unable to fly. Her dream was shattered.
"Little Yan, Little Yan, mother only has you." Zhan Yan stubbornly pursed her lips, and used the back of her hand to forcefully wipe the tears off her face. For the sake of the child in her womb, she had to be strong as soon as possible. She had to be the bravest and strongest mother in the world.
Separated by a door, on the corridor of the hospital, Gao Yuxuan stopped Du Xiaomo, "Why is the child still there when you lied to her?"
"Being a doctor was Zhan Yan's dream since childhood. Now that her dreams have been shattered, her child is her only hope in surviving. If she knows that her child is gone, she will collapse."
"But Zhan Yan is an obstetrician and gynecologist, she will soon find out the clues. At that time, she will only feel even more pain."
Du Xiaomo sighed, "Let's take one step at a time."
They were standing in the corridor and talking when two policemen walked over, "Hello, Mr. Gao Yuxuan? Please come back with us and make a statement about the crash at the hospital gate two days ago. "
"Alright." Gao Yuxuan nodded, and looked towards Du Xiaomo who was by her side.
"I'm the one who called the police, Zhan Yan's child can't die in vain." Du Xiaomo replied angrily.
When Gao Yuxuan returned from recording the statement, it was already evening. He told the police the truth and did not shield Wei Shanshan, and very quickly, he was arrested as a suspect.
When he returned to the ward Zhan Yan was in, Du Xiaomo was currently feeding him soup. On the other side, Zhan Yan was sitting on the sickbed.
"Why does this soup have a strange taste?" Zhan Yan frowned slightly as she shook her head to reject the spoon that Du Xiaomo offered to him again.
"Oh, I put some ginseng in the chicken soup."
"Xiaomo, are you confused? Pregnant women are not allowed to eat ginseng, it will lead to the exhaustion of qi and yin, aggravate the pregnant reaction, cause edema and high blood pressure, your godmother is really incompetent, she wants to kill us, Little Yan. " Zhan Yan's lips curved into a faint arc.
Her joke made Du Xiaomo's eyes water. She sobbed with her head down and replied with a choked voice, "I, I'll pay attention to this next time …"
"Xiao Yan said she'll forgive you this time. There won't be a next time." Zhan Yan smiled playfully, and got off the bed while dragging her slippers, "I can't drink this soup anymore, give it to the nurse on duty to drink."
"I'll go, rest." Gao Yuxuan stood up from the sofa.
"I was just moving around." Zhan Yan carried the thermos in her left hand and walked out in small steps.
The moment the door closed, Du Xiaomo could no longer hold back her tears.
Gao Yuxuan's face turned ashen, "How long do you plan on hiding this from her? As long as it is a lie, there will always be a day when the lie is exposed. The more hope you give her, the deeper the wound she will have. "
"Then what do you want me to do? Could it be that he directly told her: Zhan Yan, your child has already been lost. Du Xiaomo roared hysterically. Just as she finished her sentence, the sound of a container falling to the ground came from outside the door.
Du Xiaomo and Gao Yuxuan were shocked, they quickly pushed open the door, only to see Zhan Yan standing blankly outside, the thermal container beneath her feet cracked, and the juice and glass fragments scattered all over the floor.
"Zhan Yan, are you hurt?" Du Xiaomo asked worriedly.
Zhan Yan stood rigidly in place, as if he couldn't hear her voice at all. Her eyes were wide open, but were shockingly empty. What did you just say? My child is gone? She's gone, isn't she? "
Du Xiaomo could not help but nod his head, "Xiao Yan, because she could not withstand the intense external force impact, by the time I sent you to the hospital, she had already lost her heartbeat."
"No, stop it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" Zhan Yan shook her head with all her might as tears rolled down her pale face. She staggered backwards, then suddenly turned around and recklessly ran towards the end of the corridor. Due to her weak body, she had only taken two steps before her legs gave way and she fell to the ground. The loose slippers on her feet were also thrown away.
"Zhan Yan!" Gao Yuxuan caught up to her in just a few steps, and extended his arms in an attempt to carry her off the ground. Zhan Yan, you just finished your surgery, where are you going? "
Zhan Yan struggled with all her might and cried out uncontrollably, "Let me go, let me go! I'm going to find Viyan, I'm going to tell him where Little Yan is … Vayon loves children so much... "But, why is it that before he knew about the existence of our child, little Yan had already disappeared from this world …"
"Zhan Yan, can you calm down a little? Ji Weiyang left, the child is gone, the only person by your side is me, I will always be with you. " Gao Yuxuan hugged her tightly and refused to let go.
Zhan Yan unrestrainedly cried in his arms, her two hands tightly grabbing onto his collar as her tearful eyes glazed over. Why was she so cruel? My little face is already four months old, she has already developed, she has breathing, heart rate, feeling, in six months, she will come to my side to call me mother … What did I do wrong? Heaven will take her away! "
Gao Yuxuan's palm caressed her face that was crying to the point of despair, waves after waves of pain emerged in his heart. Zhan Yan wasn't wrong, she was just in love with a man she shouldn't have loved.
"Where are you, Viyan?" Zhan Yan continuously called out Ji Weiyang's name, and finally fainted in Gao Yuxuan's embrace due to exhaustion.
"Call the doctor." He carried Zhan Yan and walked quickly towards the ward.
At the same time, on the other side of the ocean, Ji Weiyang suddenly woke up from his nightmare.
It was early morning in Munich, and the sky was blue and cloudless.
Ji Weiyang sat on the headboard of the bed, his palm tightly held onto his left chest. Inside his chest, his heart was beating wildly, and the throbbing pain increased his strength by the second.
"What is it? Did you have a nightmare? " On the bed, Tang Feng lazily sat up.
Ji Weiyang's eyes were dark and heavy. After a brief moment of silence, he said softly, "Help me book a plane ticket for tomorrow. I want to return home."
"What?" Tang Feng was startled, "Are you crazy? You don't want to die, do you? "
"I dreamt that Zhan Yan was crying and I couldn't stop worrying about her." Ji Weiyang's sword-like eyebrows deeply furrowed.
Tang Feng was simply speechless. He helplessly extended two of his fingers and pressed against his aching temples.
It was just a dream. Was there even a need to make a fuss over nothing? That woman, Wei Zhanyan, was truly a calamity that Ji Weiyang could not escape.
"The doctor said you need to stay in the hospital for at least a month to observe. Viyan, if you insist on doing what you want, I can only tell General Ji that you are hospitalized. I can't control you, so I'll have your family's old man come. "
"Are you threatening me?" Ji Weiyang raised his eyebrows coldly.
Tang Feng sighed, "Brother, I am doing this for your own good. Just bear with it for a few more days." He leaned back on the cot, hands behind his head, eyes squinting at the ceiling above him.
"I really don't understand how much you can love me. Women are all the same when you turn off the lights and take off your clothes. "
On the snow-white sickbed, Ji Weiyang's handsome face was gloomy and cold. He had also told himself countless of times, that women were still not the same. Without Wei Zhanyan, he would still be the Third Young Master Ji who called the wind and rain. However, when he was drunk and pressed a bewitching blonde woman under his body, his body reacted instinctively due to the intense sensory stimulation.
He sat down on the floor and poured the blood-red liquid into her mouth. Zhan Yan's face kept appearing in her mind. She looked at him and smiled with despair and sadness. Originally, he could deceive anyone, but she could not deceive herself. Zhan Yan had already been deeply ingrained in his heart, if she had to forcefully tear apart his heart, what kind of pain would that be? He didn't even dare to think about it.
"It's not the same!" Ji Weiyang answered resolutely, "If such a person were to appear in your life, then everyone else would have become generals, and I am not willing to do so."
Tang Feng smacked his lips.
The phone under his pillow started to buzz. Tang Feng glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was another Lu Anqi calling. He had already called more than ten times today, so even if she was not annoyed, he was annoyed. Your ex-girlfriend is still calling? "
"Tell her I'm asleep." Ji Weiyang turned his body and laid back on the sickbed.
Tang Feng pressed the answer button, after a few casual words, he quickly hung up. On the other side of the phone, Lu Anqi's face contorted as she listened to the busy beeping coming from the other side of the phone.
"Pa!" She slammed her phone against the corner of the wall. Ji Weiyang, you actually dared to lie to me! "
Lu Anqi sat on his bed and fumed, the phone beside his bed started to ring, "Hello." Lu Anqi said snappily.
"Miss Lu, your temper seems to be very bad lately. I just happen to have some news for you. It should be good news for you." A private detective's chuckle came from the other end of the phone.
"If you have something to say, hurry up and say it."
"Didn't you ask me to investigate the matter of Wei Zhanyan's pregnancy? A few days ago, she had an abortion, and she is still lying in the hospital."
"Really?" Lu Anqi was overjoyed, this was indeed a heavenly great news. "Since she's so 'pitiful', you should give me a great gift of condolences …" she whispered, with a grim smile on her lips.
In the hospital.
Ever since Zhan Yan had woken up, she had been sitting in front of the window in a daze, not saying a word as if she had transformed into a different person. No matter what others said to her, there was no response. She immersed herself in her own world, licking her wounds alone.
"Zhan Yan, can I beg you to eat something? Or, just one word with me, please don't torture yourself like that. " Du Xiaomo held onto the bowl of soup, and didn't take a bite of it until the broth in the bowl cooled down. She relied on glucose to maintain her life. After a few days, she quickly became thin. Her small face was only the size of a palm and her large black eyes were devoid of any light.
A light sound from the door broke the silence of the room. Gao Yuxuan stood up and opened his mouth to speak. Hello, I have a message from Miss Wei Zhanyan. "
"There's still mail at this late hour." Gao Yuxuan suspiciously muttered a sentence, after signing and accepting it, he brought the mail in and started to open the box.
"What is it?" Du Xiaomo asked. At the same time, Zhan Yan's gaze was also attracted over.
Gao Yuxuan took out a transparent glass bottle from the box. Inside the bottle was a mass of blood and flesh mixed together, his face full of doubt, unable to differentiate what exactly was inside.
