045. The child's father, is... You?
...................................
Yi Cheng waited outside Xia's house for about half an hour.
The rain gradually subsided, and finally slowly stopped.
He lowered the window of the car, looked at the rain, and was worried that Xia Nianxi would not be able to walk out for a while, so he restarted the car and brought the car closer to the gate of Xia's house.
The mourning music inside happened to stop, and some guests came out of it one after another.
When one of the chubby middle-aged couples passed by the Audi, the woman sighed, a little unbearable, "Is this biological?" Can this style of play still live? β
The man immediately covered her mouth, "Shhh......h
As the two men walked away, a gust of wind blew, and a faint smell of blood wafted from them, burrowing into the car window.
Yi Cheng's fingers on the steering wheel were stunned, and his face had changed.
He immediately found his mobile phone and called President Rong's office, "Secretary Lin, the president is still in a meeting?" β
"yes, it's not over yet."
"Please help me hand the phone to the president right away."
"Butβ"
"No, but! Go to the conference room immediately, this is Miss Xia's business! β
"Okay," Secretary Lin didn't dare to delay, and immediately broke into the conference room, handing the cordless phone to Rong Xiu with both hands, "President, it's Yi Tezhu." β
The slender five fingers immediately took the phone and pressed it to his ear, "Say." β
"President, Miss Xia has entered the Xia family, and today is the death day of Old Man Xia."
The five fingers suddenly tightened, and Rong Xiu's voice sank a lot, "Why did you only tell me now?!" β
"I thought it was just an ordinary worshipβ"
Rong Xiu interrupted him, "Go in right now and bring her out." β
"The doorman will probably block it."
"Crash in."
"Yes!"
Yi Cheng put down his mobile phone, stepped on the accelerator directly, and slammed it into the gate of the Xia family-
The front of the black Audi slammed into the door and slammed it to the ground.
There was a thud, which frightened everyone inside.
The doorman was dumbfounded, "You-"
Yi Cheng got out of the car and grabbed the other party's collar directly, "Where is Miss Xia?" β
"Who?"
"Xia Nianxi!"
"Back, the ancestral hall ......"
Yi Cheng shook him off and strode around the back of the Xia family's villa.
With every few additional steps, the smell of blood in the air gets stronger......
The bad premonition was gradually confirmed by the messy and bloodied shoe prints on the bluestone brick road, and he walked into the ancestral hall and couldn't believe what he sawβ
Xia Nianxi was lying in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, the rain soaked, but there was blood red under him.
She had passed out, the whole person was unconscious, her small face, which was originally only the size of a palm, was swollen like a pig's head, her face was pale, her hair was scattered, her lips were whiter than her face, almost terrifying, making people think that she had ......
Rao is an iron-boned man in Yicheng, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and his face turned a little pale.
He couldn't believe that on the day of the death day worship, there was still someone who could commit such a poisonous act!
Aren't you afraid of retribution?!
Someone broke in, and the Xia family all raised their heads.
When Xia Ruoxue saw Yi Cheng, her face changed several times, "Dad, he is Rong Xiu's special assistant, Yi Cheng." β
Xia Maoqing reacted from his stunned gaze, and when he saw Yi Cheng's face, he was slightly flustered.
A special assistant is already like this, I really don't know what kind of strong aura Rong Xiu himself will have......
"Dad? What are you doing in a daze? Go and say hello to him! Xia Ruoxue pushed Xia Maoqing.
Xia Maoqing hurriedly smiled and walked up quickly, "Yi Tezhu, hello, I don't know what you are doing here-"
Yi Cheng's face tensed, and he directly ignored him, as well as all the others present.
Then he walked quickly past Xia Maoqing, walked to the middle of the ancestral hall, and squatted down.
First, he gently stretched out his hand and probed Xia Nianxi's snort.
Life hangs by a thread, and the breath is like a gossamer.
This didn't make Yi Cheng feel half relaxed, he squatted down, took off his coat, wrapped Xia Nianxi entirely, and then ran his arm through her neck and abdomen, first turned her person over, then picked it up, and walked outside.
At this time, saving lives is important, and I can't care about whether men and women give or don't kiss.
Seeing him like this, Xia Maoqing felt faintly uneasy, and hurriedly chased after him, "Yi Tezhu, she made a mistake, and she was beaten to her own fault." It'll be fine in a few days, so why botherβ"
"Mr. Xia." Yi Cheng paused and looked straight ahead, "You should be glad that it was me who came with me today." β
If it is Rong Xiu, I am afraid of the consequences, and I dare not imagine it......
Xia Maoqing was shocked, "What I said, Yi Tezhu ......"
Yi Cheng didn't pay attention to them anymore, hugged Xia Nianxi, and quickly walked out of the gate of Xia's house.
The blood on her body, I don't know where it came from, had already stained him, dripping down his trousers......
Yi Cheng supported her with one hand, opened the back seat with the other and put her in.
Back in the driver's seat, there were already more than a dozen missed calls on the phone, all from Rong Xiu.
Dialing back, his voice was almost choked, "President, I will send Miss Xia directly to the nearest Ronghua Hospital......"
.......................
Yung's Meeting Room.
Since receiving Yi Cheng's first phone call, there has been a tense silence in the conference room.
Because Rong Xiu had already gotten up and stood by the window, looking at the low sky of lead clouds with heavy eyebrows, and had no intention of listening to any more work reports.
It wasn't until Yi Cheng's second call came that everyone clearly heard President Rong, who had always been calm, pinching the finger bones of the phone and clicking-
The sharp and crisp sound is particularly clear in the conference room where pins can be heard.
Before everyone could react, the door of the conference room had been pushed open and bounced back again.
There was a bang, and the cold wind blew outside, blowing the black coat on the throne rolled up.
Only then did the executives come back to their senses and look at each other-
What can make the always calm president go in such a hurry? I didn't even have time to get my clothes......
....................
Ronghua Hospital.
Top floor, outside the operating room.
The experts of the whole hospital have already invested in the operation, and Yi Cheng is standing in the empty corridor, his knees still trembling-
It's not tired, it's not scared.
It's shocking......
galloped all the way, and until now, Xia Nianxi has been in the operating room for ten minutes, but the scene he saw at Xia's house seemed to still have a strong smell of blood.
The word brutality is no longer enough to describe it.
That is destroying a person's body, and even more importantly, destroying a person's willpower......
Murder is nothing more than that.
The elevator at the end of the corridor clanged, Rong Xiu only wore a white shirt, with a solemn cold air all over his body, came out of the elevator, and walked to the operating room very quickly.
He was followed by Bai Yexiao.
"Notify the hospital and arrange for Bai Yexiao to go in," he glanced at the three large scarlet characters in the operation.
The red seemed to be reflected in his eyes.
"Yes." Yi Cheng immediately set about it.
Soon, someone sent a pass card to the operating room, and Bai Yexiao changed into a sterile gown and went in directly.
Rong Xiu leaned against the cold wall, his eyes never left the door of the operating room, and his right hand subconsciously touched his coat pocket.
But I only felt the touch of the shirt.
The empty fingertips curled up slightly.
Yi Cheng hurriedly took his cigarette out of his pocket and handed it over.
He has followed Rong Xiu for many years and knows that he never smokes in public, but today, I'm afraid it will be an exception......
Rong Xiu pinched the cigarette between his fingers, and his voice was hoarse, revealing a coldness, "Xia Maoqing's hand? β
"Yes."
Yi Cheng turned on the lighter again, lit a small cluster of flames, and leaned overβ
Rong Xiu didn't raise his hand, but the two fingers holding the cigarette tightened slightly, "Don't smoke." β
The little girl came out after a while, smelled the smoke, and was afraid that she was going to wrinkle her nose.
Yi Cheng respectfully took back the lighter again.
The door of the operating room was opened, and Bai Yexiao stood up and pulled down the mask with five fingers, "Rong Xiu." β
They were friends and were always referred to by name.
Rong Xiu hummed and looked at him steadily, but Bai Yexiao still understood the emotion in his eyes-
It's all capitalized, it's full, and it's distressing.
Bai Yexiao pursed her lips before she said, "She's pregnant." But...... I can't keep it anymore. You sign it, and the obstetrician and gynecologist inside will do a uterine clearance for her directly. β
Rong Xiu was stunned.
It was like being punched in the temple, the capillaries under the eyes were broken, and large patches of scarlet bloomed out, but in a second, the eyes were already blood-red.
His whole body froze there.
The cigarette that had been pinched between his fingers suddenly snapped and fell to the ground, and the light brown tobacco was blown everywhere by the cold wind in the hallway.
Pregnant......
But I can't keep it......
These two pieces of information are constantly intertwined in his mind, making him, who has always been methodical, lose his ability to think.
It turns out that there is no clear dividing line between the joys and sorrows of life......
"Is there no other way?" He raised his scarlet eyes and asked in a hoarse voice.
Bai Yexiao was silent for a few seconds, "If she doesn't clear the palace again, she will be at risk of heavy bleeding, and the probability is very high." β
ββ¦β¦ I know. Rong Xiu took the informed consent form in his hand and bowed his head.
A black ordinary ballpoint pen that is cool to the touch.
He entered the Rong family in his early twenties, and he has signed more than 10,000 times in ten years of ups and downs, but this time...... It's especially tough.
The paper was torn and the last stroke fell, and the handwriting was already a little messy.
With a snap, the ballpoint pen snapped in his hand......
Bai Yexiao took the consent form back, patted him on the shoulder, and wanted to say something, but in the end, he stopped talking, turned around, and entered the operating room again.
"Yi Cheng."
Rong Xiu's voice became even hoarse.
"Yes."
"Go and bring Meng Yao, no matter where she is, I want to see her as quickly as possible."
"Yes."
................
Fifteen minutes later.
Meng Yao was still wearing a small yellow vest in the detention center, and was brought to Rong Xiu with a confused expression.
Xia Nianxi was beaten and miscarried when she returned to Xia's house......
was taken out of the detention center by Yi Cheng, and when she heard the news in the car, she thought that today was April Fool's Day.
It is true that Xia Nianxi was beaten by Xia Maoqing since he was a child, but he was beaten so hard until he had a miscarriage...... She couldn't believe it.
Now standing at the door of the operating room, she finally understood that what Yi Cheng said was true.
"What about the people of the Xia family? What about Xia Ruoxue's little bitch? I'm going to tear her to death! Meng Yao looked around, furious, "Lao Tzu is going to kill her whole family!" β
"Be quiet for a moment." Rong Xiu looked at her.
Meng Yao's tears burst out at once, "How can I be quiet?!" You haven't seen it before, you don't know how ruthless Xia Maoqing's old bastard is! He-"
"When did she find out she was pregnant?" Rong Xiu asked.
"......" Meng Yao was stunned for a moment, the anger that was still steaming in her heart was suppressed by this man, and it didn't explode for the time being, "More than a week ago." β
"What did you do last time you came to this hospital?"
ββ¦β¦ Abortion surgery. β
"She doesn't know who the child's father is. Right? β
"Do you know that?" Meng Yao wondered why he would ask that.
"It's me."
"......" Meng Yao was so shocked that her eyes were about to burst out, "What did you say?!" It's you?! You were the pervert who came into her room that night?! β
Rong Xiu turned his head again, looked at the operating room, and didn't pay attention to her anymore.
He closed his eyes forcefully, and then opened them againβ
Under his eyes, he was still blood-red.
On the day he saw her at Ronghua Hospital, he thought that the obstetrics and gynecology department of this hospital was particularly famous, so he was not without suspicions.
It's just that...... Then I remembered that the first time I took her into the water, she said that she had come to her aunt...... He dispelled his doubts.
I just thought she had something to hide from herself.
I didn't expect her to be really pregnant......
How panicked, scared, and helpless she would be when she knew about such a big thing...... He didn't want to imagine it anymore......
Suddenly, there was something in front of me, a piece of paper.
Meng Yao pinched his half-open small backpack with one hand, and handed the piece of paper closer to Rong Xiu with the other-
"It's ...... She did a B-ultrasound list before. The doctor gave it to me. She hadn't seen it herself, and I was afraid that she would be afraid, so I didn't show it to her. β
Rong Xiu took it.
On the black and white page, two small white dots, leaning together, seem to be snuggling up to each other for warmth.
The following is the conclusion of the examination of the B-ultrasound doctor -
Intrauterine twins.
Twin ......
It turned out that he and she had lost more than one.
Pain, doubled.
It is a geometric multiple that goes up wildly.
Rong Xiu pinched the piece of paper until it was seriously deformed, and the green tendons on the back of his hand protruded, like strings that would break at any time.
After a long, long time...... He stretched his fingertips, gently smoothed the piece of paper, and put it back in the pocket of his trousers.
Continued, with an endless, suffocating silence......
.................
Outside the window from day to night, and then to the second day.
The lights at the door of the operating room finally went out.
There were several hanging bottles hanging above the mobile hospital bed, and the person on the bed was buried in a snow-white quilt, a small mass, without a trace of blood on her face, her breathing was weak, and she could barely see the rise and fall of her chest.
Bai Yexiao walked in the front, "Concussion, severe rupture of the inside of the mouth, cracked coccygeal vertebrae, fractured phalanges, countless bruises, and, miscarriage...... The next seven days were dangerous......"
In the end, the other doctors who had seen the wind and waves couldn't bear to listen to it.
It's not a serious injury, it's simply homicide!
During the operation, there were a few little nurses who couldn't hold back and cried on the spot......
Meng Yao was tense all night, and she also cried loudly, and rushed over to see Xia Nianxi.
was gently pulled back by Rong Xiu.
He stepped forward, pinched the railing of the hospital bed steadily, took it from the doctor's hand, and made him understand what it means to be distressed to the bone overnight, and then took it to the VIP ward that had been reserved for a long time.
"President." Yi Cheng quickly followed.
Rong Xiu pushed the hospital bed to the door of the ward, and then turned around and said to him smoothly, "Tell the old man that I am on a business trip, and I will take Xia Nianxi with me." I can't go home until a month. For a month, I didn't see anyone. β
"Yes."
"Block all news about Xia Nianxi, in the media, in people's words, I don't want to hear any gossip about her miscarriage."
"Yes."
"In addition," Rong Xiu's eyes were heavy, and there was a ruthlessness in his eyes that dragged the whole world to accompany the funeral, "Cut off all the business of the Xia family." Tell those people in the mall that whoever does business for Xia Maoqing again will be the enemy of me. β
....................
Hurt......
Endless pain...... It doesn't penetrate from the outside, but through the cracks in the bones, drilling outward.
Obviously, the quilt under the body is very soft, but it still seems to be roasted in a furnace for a while, and it seems to be frozen under an iceberg for a while, and the body is alternating between hot and cold, and the whole body is trembling and sweating profusely.
The pain felt like someone was holding a fire and burning their peripheral nerves, making people want to scream, but they couldn't dodge it......
But when I opened my mouth, my throat seemed to be blocked by something, and I couldn't make a sound......
Xia Nianxi felt that he was passing through a deep and long tunnel, getting darker and darker, leaving the light far behind.
In my ears, someone seemed to be talking, and the voice sounded angry, but also sad-
"Who allowed you to sleep like this? You still owe me ......"
What does he owe? She couldn't hear clearly, and she was drowsy......
There seemed to be another sound of the door opening and footsteps, and then, againβ
"Didn't you say that her danger period was only seven days? It's been ten days now, why haven't you woken up yet?! β
She couldn't hear what the person had answered, and then she fell into the endless darkness......
The tenth day after the operation passed like this......
The temperature plummeted, and the nights grew longer by the day.
On the fifteenth day, the voice was still in my ears, repeating the same words.
Over and over again.
Then, she moved her fingers slightly, trying to lift her eyelids to see who had been so patiently nagging in her ear, that every time she wanted to go deeper into the darkness, she would be so noisy that she could not move forward......
I tried hard to open my eyelids, but I could only half-open, and my eyes were blurry.
It was impossible to see who it was, but she was quickly carried into a crisp chest.
A very familiar breath, a very familiar heartbeat, surrounded her.
There is also a very gentle movement, holding a cotton swab and dipping water on her lips......
The pain in her whole body seemed to be lighter, and she closed her eyes again, breathing evenly and fell asleep.
Fifteen days later, the temperature dropped below freezing, and the first snow of winter finally fell.
Xia Nianxi was already able to get off the ground and walk around for a short distance.
It's just that three days after she woke up, the atmosphere in the ward was surprisingly weird-
Except for the doctor who had a routine check-up and the nurse who came to change her dressing on time, the only person she could see was Rong Xiu.
How did you get out of the Xia family ancestral hall and how did you get to the hospital...... She didn't remember at all.
When I asked him, he didn't answer her.
No matter what she said, Rong Xiu just stayed in the ward in silence, as if he was accompanying her, but not so much.
The atmosphere in the ward was frozen like a frozen Baikal.
Night.
She took the medicine, fell asleep groggily, woke up again, and subconsciously looked at the sofa in the ward-
Rong Xiu, who had always been sitting there, was gone.
The wind blew in, blowing up the curtain behind the floor-to-ceiling door, and she saw Rong Xiu facing her on the balcony.
He was pinching the lighter to light the fire, and his slender five fingers arched to surround the flames, like the only small lantern shining in the boundless night.
But the wind and snow outside were too strong, and he ordered it several times, but it didn't work.
Xia Nianxi stretched out his hand and pressed the small lamp at the head of the bed, "You can come in and smoke." β
Her voice was hoarse, as if she had been run over by a steamroller.
Rong Xiu paused, extinguished the lighter, put the cigarette back in his pocket, and then entered the ward, looking calm, not looking at her or speaking.
Xia Nianxi thought for a while, and then said, "Tonight, why don't you let Yaoyao accompany me?" You're here......"
If he doesn't say a word, it will make her panic.
Rong Xiu sat back on the sofa and raised his eyes to look at her.
After returning from the ghost gate, the little face was so thin that it was only half the size of his palm.
Seeing him look at himself like this, Xia Nianxi suddenly felt oppressed, and pulled the corners of his mouth that were still swollen again, "Then you didn't say anything to me, okay?" I slept, good night. β
She was about to lie down again, and then, a deep, hoarse voice rang out in the roomβ
"Xia Nianxi, what are you afraid of?"
"......" she squeezed the quilt tightly.
Rong Xiu stood up, his eyes dark on her face, "What are you afraid of?" Or, can't believe what? β
A trace of confusion appeared on the little face of "......" who was still sickly, what did she dare not believe?
She didn't know what he was talking about.
Rong Xiu walked over to her, his arms on either side of her shoulders, pressed against the pillar at the head of the bed, his dark eyes were calm, "Tell me, how can you trust someone?" β
Xia Nianxi was stunned, and after a moment, he pursed his lips, "I didn't believe anyone, did I?" β
"You don't believe anybody." He stretched out his fingertips, pinched her chin, and forced her to look at him, "You don't believe that there will be people in this world who will be good to you, you don't believe that there will be people who are willing to let you rely on, you don't believe that you deserve to be cherished......"
The thick eyelashes trembled, and Xia Nianxi's fingers tightened the sheets, "I don't know what you're talking about." β
"No one believes in it, close yourself off, and any kindness from others seems to you to be a prelude to hurting you. So when I encounter anything, I will not open my mouth and ask others for help. You haven't had enough of these days? β
His tone seemed to be a little sarcastic, and more than that, it was regret.
A kind of regret that has lost many, many and has been irreparable......
Xia Nianxi was a little dazed, not knowing what he was regretting, but his heart seemed to be hit by his words, as if he had covered up his emotions for more than ten years, and the deepest fear was exposed by him without any scruples.
Others are kind to her, and she never dares to believe that it is true.
Once on her birthday, Xia Ruoxue took the initiative to bring her a cake and said that she would be invited to eat.
The fresh cream cake had a fragrant aroma, Xia Nianxi, who was only eight years old at the time, thought that her sister had finally accepted herself, but after she ate the cake, she vomited and diarrhea that night, and if she hadn't been discovered by her grandfather, she was likely to die of dehydration......
At that time, she knew that if others were kind to her for no reason, it was a trap.
Can't be trusted......
Rong Xiu lowered his head, his big hand touched her face, and his voice was very soft and soft, "How long are you going to trap yourself in that kind of childhood?" Have you really, broken away from the Xia family, from everything they gave you? β
The two words of the Xia family made Xia Nianxi wake up suddenly, and the confusion in his eyes dissipated, replaced by a deep panic, "I've come out!" β
She's long since gotten rid of that home!
"You seem to be indifferent to everything, but in fact, you care more about your past life in the Xia family than anyone else, so now, no one believes in it, and no one relies on it! Isn't that so, huh?! β
Xia Nianxi's whole body trembled, the knuckles of his hand holding the sheet had turned white, and his voice sank, "Don't say it!" β
"You think you've been yourself again, in fact, you're still the Xia Nianxi created by them, you haven't changed at all, and you'll never be able to get out of the Xia family, right?!"
"I'll tell you to stop talking! Shut up! Xia Nianxi's whole body trembled even more, and he reached out and pushed him fiercely, "Don't say it!" β
She's not, she's already herself, she's not the Xia Nianxi she used to be!
She doesn't want to have anything to do with the Xia family!
"Have you ever tried to trust someone? You don't! β
"......" Xia Nianxi's whole body trembled even more, grabbed the pillow and smashed it at him fiercely, his face pale and panicked.
But he wouldn't stopβ
"You entered the Xia family at the age of six, and you were sent back by your mother. Since then, she has been in prison. You feel that none of the people around you care about you and will not help you solve any problems you encounter, so you chose to hide it from me after you became pregnant! β
The pain and silence he had accumulated over the past month all erupted at this moment.
The word pregnancy was like a heavy punch, hitting Xia Nianxi's head hard, making her dizzy, "Please shut up immediately!" β
She reached out and covered her empty lower abdomen, her eyes splitting. Why should I tell him if I'm pregnant? What position did she have to tell him! This man is too inexplicable!
"When you knew you were pregnant, were you panicked, scared, and helpless?"
"......" Xia Nianxi's eyes were scarlet, he threw himself up from the bed, and with the weak, but all his strength after recovery, he punched him in the chest, "I told you not to say it!" β
After the beating, the knuckles that had not fully recovered were in pain, her face turned pale, her fingers curled up, and the shaking was even more uncontrollable.
Rong Xiu clenched his fists and forced himself to take his gaze away from the gauze on her fingers and look away-
"Why can't I say that?!" He rebuked, his eyes scarlet, "You never believed a word of what I said to you, so even if I asked you again and again what was wrong with you, you chose to lie to me." That's why you lose your child, you lose our child! β
The two words of us split like a thunderbolt, making Xia Nianxi stunned for a moment, "What did you say?" Our children? We? Father of the child...... Be...... You? β
