When the pain came, the first thing he thought of was not himself, but instead, he lowered his head to look at her. He tried with all his might to tell her that Yan Xiao, I'm fine …
The bowl in her hand fell to the table with a bang. The greasy chicken soup splattered, then slowly dripped down the table and onto the floor, gradually forming a puddle …
"Ah Xi …"
She mumbled softly, then watched as Assi's body slowly fell to the ground. Her face and hands turned ice-cold, and her heart felt as if someone had stabbed it with a sharp knife and pulled it out. She then inserted it in and stirred it a few times …
"Ah Xi!"
She suddenly clenched both her hands into fists, and with a shriek that sounded like she had collapsed, her heart-wrenching cry woke up everyone in the room. As soon as Cen Peiyi stood up, she fainted while Ceng Zimo stumbled up the stairs …
The servants panicked and hurriedly ran over as well.
Asai's blood. When he closed his eyes for the last time, his eyes were bloodshot, full of Asai's blood …
He was going to die.
She wanted to run after him and stop him from rolling down the stairs. She wanted to hug him and block the blood from coming out of his mouth. She didn't want him to die …
Just as he landed, he felt a sticky sensation. The happiness on his face slowly faded as he thought, "Right, that was the chicken soup that I just knocked over …" She wanted to retract her foot, but it seemed that it was already too late. Her heavy body followed the footsteps and slid out, before landing heavily on the ground …
"Child …" Her hands were tightly covering her lower abdomen. The moment she fell, she wanted to curl up and protect the child in her lower abdomen, but before her hands could reach her lower abdomen, her bulging lower abdomen smashed into the marble table's leg.
"Ah …"
"Ahhh!" She screamed in pain, feeling as if her body was no longer hers, as if her stomach had been peeled off from her. In a split-second, a burning sensation spread between her legs, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
After a buzzing sound in his ears, everything seemed to quiet down … She could not feel pain, she could not feel the pain of being peeled off. The endless smoke extended countless hands, slowly swallowing her, swallowing her again and again until finally …
Even the last bit of his consciousness, his thoughts about Ashes and his children, disappeared in a flash. He could no longer hear anything, he could no longer see …
"Doctor, why isn't she awake? It's been a week …"
"Maybe she was stimulated too much and didn't want to wake up. Her brain was deliberately resisting those intolerable things, so she kept going into a coma."
"Doctor, can you temporarily not tell her about that child?"
"..." "En, looking at the patient's condition, you really can't let yourself be hurt again. Don't worry, I will tell you everything. No one will tell her the truth about the child."
"Thank you, thank you, doctor!"
"You're welcome, Mister Shen."
The doctor nodded and was about to turn around to leave the room, but then he stopped and turned around. He looked at the doctor with a sad expression and said, "Mister Shen, there is another bad news. We hope you can prepare yourself."
Shen Canghao's face turned pale, he suddenly raised his head and stared at the doctor. The recent days of rushing and worrying had caused his lips to bubble, making him look as if he had aged a decade, and was extremely haggard.
"Yan Yan …" Has something happened to Yan Yan Yan? "
His hands, which were pressed against the leg of his pants, tightened and tensed up, causing a thin layer of sweat to appear on his palms. He really couldn't take any more blows.
"I'm afraid it'll be very hard for Miss Xu to be a mother in this lifetime."
The doctor looked at him with some sympathy. Ordinary men wouldn't be able to accept such a thing. Furthermore, he was the heir to such a large family.
A relaxed expression surfaced on his face, and even a gentle smile appeared on it. "As long as it's not that she's busy and can't bear to have children, I don't mind. Furthermore, we already have a beautiful daughter."
Seeing that he was relieved, the doctor could not help but smile, "Since that's the case, I will go to the ward first. Goodbye, Mister Shen."
"Hey, doctor …"
Shen Canghao thought for a moment. She had just experienced so much, so he really couldn't give her any more blows. As a woman, she would feel uncomfortable if she knew that she couldn't be his mother for the rest of her life.
"Please help me hide this matter from her. I'm worried that it will affect her mood and hinder her recovery."
"..." "Yeah, I think so too. Let's find some time to talk about it when Miss Xu slowly recovers."
Shen Canghao thanked her and walked back to the smiling ward. Beneath the thin white blanket was a small, clean face, so white that it almost merged with the blanket and pillow.
But... Under the blanket, there was not even the slightest fluctuation. It was so flat that it seemed as if no one was sleeping.
"Yan Yan …"
Shen Canghao held her hand and gently held it in his palm. Her breathing was shallow, but the space between her eyebrows was tightly pinched, as if she couldn't sleep at all.
When she woke up, could he hide everything from her? And would she believe it? He tightly furrowed his brows, not knowing what to do. Only now did he realize that he was not omnipotent. In the face of fate, he was actually so insignificant.
