Chapter 290: Baby Crying
The sudden cry of the baby made me shudder and my eyes snapped open.
I quickly put on my slippers and ran towards the source of the sound.
But apart from those two sounds, the baby's cry never came again.
And because I didn't know the way, I was completely lost in the villa.
As I found my way back, I thought about the cry I had just made.
Although there were many servants in the villa, all of them were unmarried women and had no children.
Even if someone really gets married and has children, they can't bring their children to the villa.
But just now I heard it so clearly, there is indeed a child crying, so the only explanation is that there is a child in the villa.
Even though I had seen his body with my own eyes when I knew that my child was gone, I had a faint glimmer of hope at this moment.
Maybe Gu Ci is lying to me, maybe my child is still alive and well, maybe he is in this villa at the moment.
With this in mind, every time I walked outside a room, I would prick up my ears and listen, wanting to hear the cry again.
But to my disappointment, I didn't hear any sound or see anyone along the way, and it was as if I was the only one in the whole villa.
After walking for a while, I finally found my way back, and when I returned to my room, I saw Gu Ci sitting inside.
"Why are you here?" I was taken aback and asked.
"I was passing by just now, and when I saw your door open, I came in and looked. But you, where did you go? Gu Ci said calmly.
I suddenly remembered that I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to close the door.
"I couldn't sleep just now, so I went out for a walk." I made a random excuse.
"You rest early, I won't bother you." Gu Ci got up from the sofa and prepared to leave.
Looking at his face, I hesitated for a moment and blurted out a question, "Does anyone in the villa have children?" ”
"Kid?" Gu Ci was puzzled.
"Well, did any of the servants give birth to a child and brought the child with them?" I added.
"No, such a maid will pay a severance fee as long as she gets married and pregnant, so there is no child you said."
I was excited, if no one really had a child, it would not be my child who was crying just now.
"Did you see something?" Gu Cihu asked.
"I heard the cry of a baby, maybe my child." I said excitedly.
Gu Ci's face changed slightly, "Your child has passed away, haven't you seen the corpse too?" ”
"I know, but I did hear the cry, and maybe he's coming back for me." I said stubbornly.
Gu Ci sighed, "I originally thought that you had let go of this matter, but now that I look at it, you haven't forgotten it at all, and it has led to hallucinations." ”
"I'm not hallucinating, I really heard it, don't lie to you." I immediately explained.
"Ruoyao, the matter has passed, even if you can't let it go, it's useless. I'll get you a doctor tomorrow and I'm sure you'll be back soon. Gu Ci grabbed my arm and said.
"I'm really fine, why don't you believe me?" I looked anxious.
"It's not that I don't believe you, but that child was buried with my own eyes, and you went to see it on the spot. If you do hear crying, you're either hallucinating or there's something dirty. ”
"He's not dirty, he's my child, and that can't be changed." I said angrily.
"Okay, it's your child, it's getting late, it's time for you to rest. Be obedient, obedient, and when you wake up, everything will pass. Gu Ci coaxed me to say.
This tone of coaxing a mentally ill person made me very unhappy, but I didn't reply, and obediently lay back on the bed.
"I can't sleep, can you talk to me about it?" I looked at Gu Ci who was leaving.
Gu Ci turned around and sat on the edge of my bed, his voice soft, "What do you want to say?" ”
"Let's talk about how you saved me."
I still can't figure out how Gu Ci rescued me from such a big fire.
Gu Ci didn't hide it, and said it one by one.
"I learned you were missing......"
After I pushed Jiang's mother to this matter and caused a stir, Gu Ci learned that I was kicked out of the house by the Jiang family.
However, because he was busy in those days, he couldn't find time to come to me.
When someone finally came looking for me, they saw that there was a fire in my house.
He tried his best to get me out, but I was dying because I was inhaling more carbon dioxide.
When I was out of danger, I fell unconscious due to lack of oxygen.
At this time, it happened that the Jiang family also found out that my house was burned, and when they saw Chen Feng's body inside, they thought it was me, so they held a funeral for me.
I always felt that something was wrong, but if I had to say one, two, three, I didn't know where to start.
"The Jiang family just believed that Chen Feng's body was mine, didn't they check it?" I asked incredulously.
I've read a lot of reports about my death in the past two days, but maybe because I was suppressed by the Jiang family, all I saw was a few words, so I don't know how the Jiang family thought that the body was mine.
At the same time, there is no news about my parents.
The only thing that makes me feel heartache is that because I was so sad about the loss of my child that I didn't call my parents to explain.
When I finally mustered up the courage to make a phone call, I didn't know where to start, so the matter was delayed.
"Chen Feng's body has been turned to ashes, and the Jiang family just hurriedly checked it to determine that he was you, so the funeral was held quickly, and the matter was settled."
My face was a little unsightly, and I wasn't even sure for sure, but I was sure that I was dead.
This matter must have been Jiang's mother's idea, but I didn't expect her to hate me to such an extent that she wouldn't even give me a chance to survive.
Having the answer I wanted, I put the matter aside and asked, "When did I lose my child?" ”
Yu Guang noticed the displeasure on Gu Ci's face, so I pretended not to see it and waited for his answer.
"After I rescued you from the fire, the prolonged lack of oxygen caused the child to be unable to be saved, and although I tried my best to save you, I only lasted for two months. After the baby's fetal heart rate stopped, I asked people to take him out. Gu Ci said with a sigh.
"It's always my fault, and if I had gone a little earlier, you wouldn't have encountered such a thing."
I smiled reluctantly, "I'm already very happy that you can save me, and I don't dare to hope for anything else." ”
After a pause, I said sadly: "I used to look forward to the arrival of this child, because he is not only the crystallization of my love with Jiang Cheng, but also my hope. ”
"But now that Jiang Cheng and I have come to this point, that's why God will take him back. So I don't blame you at all, but thank you for saving me. ”
Gu Ci's throat slid a little, and he didn't say anything after all, just helped me put the quilt together.
"Sleep."
I answered dumbfounded, then closed my eyes and breathed evenly.
When I heard the sound and closed the door, and after making sure that Gu Ci was gone, I opened my eyes suddenly.
I quickly went through everything he had just said to find out what was suspicious.
According to Gu Ci, it has been three months since I was taken abroad by him, and the child has been in my belly for two months.
The child had been dead for a month, but the body that Gu Ci took me to see that day had not yet begun to decompose.
So I have reason to believe that the child may not have died as I thought, but Gu Ci deceived me.
And the baby voice I heard just now may really be my child.
Thinking of this, I couldn't sit still, and I desperately wanted to look for it again, but I was afraid that Gu Ci would find out and transfer the child away.
In such a state of uneasiness, I fell asleep.
The next day, I came to the restaurant to have breakfast with Gu Ci.
"Are you going to work today or?" I asked casually.
If Gu Ci is at home, then my plan will not work, so I still need to wait for him to leave.
He didn't know what I was thinking, so he said, "There's something going on in the company today, I'll go in a while." ”
"When will you be back?" I asked.
Gu Ci had a narrow smile on the corner of his mouth, "Reluctant to me?" ”
I laughed dryly twice and said to him, "Curious to ask." ”
Gu Ci obviously didn't believe my words, and said with a smile: "I will come back as soon as possible to accompany you to finish eating." ”
Yuluo glanced at the watch in his hand, paused and said, "It's almost time, I'll go first, you have a good rest at home." ”
I nodded busily, "You go, don't worry about me." ”
After Gu Ci left, I finished breakfast as fast as I could, and then went back to the room to change into neat clothes.
Seeing me walking outside the villa, the maid who called Yu Fei immediately followed, "Miss, where are you going, Mr. said you can't go out." ”
I didn't stop, "I had a little too much for breakfast, and I went for a walk." ”
"I'll go with you."
"No need, I'm in the yard, you go get busy first."
"No, Sister Hong asked me to follow Miss every step of the way, if I leave, Sister Hong will definitely scold me if she finds out."
Sister Hong that Yu Fei said was the maid I saw when I woke up, and she was also the housekeeper of this villa.
"I'm embarrassed for you to follow me like this, so you'd better go first."
My purpose is to confirm whether the buried child is my child or not, and if Yu Fei follows, where else can I do these things.
"When the time comes, I'll be far away, and I won't look at Miss You."
Seeing that it didn't make sense, I had to keep my mouth shut, thinking about waiting for the opportunity to act.
I was worried that Yu Fei would leak his mouth, so I didn't go directly to the back mountain, but really went around the yard.
I don't know how many laps I walked, but my body was vaguely unbearable, and my breathing became short.
Yu Fei was similar, her little face was flushed, and her forehead was faintly covered with sweat.
I saw that the time was almost up, so I stopped and deliberately said, "I'm so tired." ”
"Miss, we've been gone for a long time, so let's go back."
"No, I've been in poor health lately, and that's not enough."
Looking at Yu Fei's wrinkled little face, I said sorry in my heart.
"I'm suddenly feeling a little thirsty, can you get me a glass of water?"
Yu Fei hesitated a little, and said tentatively: "Why don't we go back and drink water and come back?" ”
"I'm too lazy to move, it's like waiting here, Sister Hong asked you to follow me, but she didn't say that you were thirsty for me, right?" I said with a smirk.
Yu Fei's face changed several times, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go get water, Miss, you are waiting for me here, don't run around." ”
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you here." It's weird.
