When Zhu Xu heard his wife's trembling voice, he couldn't help but sink in his heart, but he had to muster up his courage this time: "Zhuzhu, I allow you to have a baby!" ”

Although Dou Yuzhu had already expected his decision, when such cold words entered her ears, she still shook her whole body, and felt that the ceiling above the living room was constantly rotating...

"Zhuzhu you?"

Zhu Xu noticed his wife's abnormality and quickly reached out to hug her delicate body.

Dou Yuzhu quickly adjusted her emotions, and desperately got rid of her husband's embrace, struggled to stand up, and looked down at the man with cold eyes.

"Zhu Xu, is this the result of thinking about it because you haven't slept all night?"

Zhu Xu showed a sincere expression to his wife: "Zhuzhu, I have passed the age of establishment, if you don't want a flesh and blood of your own, it's fake." However, my current career is on the cusp, and if I quit for my own sake, I am afraid that I will regret it for the rest of my life. ”

"Since you have managed to break through the project you are in charge of, what else do you have to regret?"

"But with an RS-76 project just the tip of the iceberg of our mega-project, how can I be satisfied with this little achievement? Now that Professor Nan and the higher organization have high hopes for me, how can I make a decision that disappoints them? Zhuzhu, I can't give up the opportunity to serve the country for my own selfish desires! ”

Dou Yuzhu's face turned pale: "Don't you want to stay behind for the Zhu family?" ”

"Absolutely. However, in view of the special period, it is better to wait until I finish this project. ”

"Zhu Xu, you are over thirty years old, and I am about to enter the threshold of thirty years old. How much time do we have to squander? When this project is completely completed, how many years and months will it have to wait? ”

Zhu Xu's eyes blurred: "I'm sorry... After all, I am a man of the country... Sometimes I can't help myself... The sacrifices I had to make had to be made. ”

"Zhu Xu, this is your choice?"

"Yes, this choice is full of pain and helplessness, but I have no choice."

"What do you mean you have no choice? Isn't it true that you have achieved success with the RS-76 project? ”

Zhu Xu asked rhetorically: "Zhuzhu, do you want your husband to lie on a merit book and eat the old book?" ”

Dou Yuzhu was speechless.

Zhu Xu reiterated: "Since the establishment of the FAST project by the country, we have opened up a broad stage for astronomers to shine. Who among my colleagues doesn't have a lot of clutter? But who hasn't worked overtime and worked selflessly? Because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity given to us by the times, we cannot live up to the trust of this era. ”

Dou Yuzhu couldn't be silent any longer, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Could it be that my pregnancy is also miscellaneous?" ”

Zhu Xu's expression was solemn: "Zhuzhu, don't think that it's a great thing for us to give up a child." Among our colleagues engaged in scientific research, there are more than us. If we want to realize our dreams, we should learn to 'have no regrets'! ”

"No complaints, no regrets? Have you considered my feelings? ”

"Zhuzhu, you are also a career-oriented woman, if you have a baby, it will not affect your evaluation of your professional title and further development in the medical field."

Dou Yuzhu pondered for a long time, and finally bit her lip: "Okay, I'll fulfill you, and I'll have a baby today!" ”

Zhu Xu's heart was shocked: "Do you need me to accompany you?" ”

"No, I don't. I had an abortion at the hospital where I worked, and I was surrounded by colleagues who took care of me. Even if you go, it's redundant. ”

Zhu Xu knew his wife's resentment against him, and couldn't help but be speechless.

However, when she was at work, Zhu Xu personally sent her wife to the door of the hospital where she worked.

Dou Yuzhu was expressionless all the way, and as soon as the taxi stopped, she immediately opened the door and got out of the car, without looking at her husband again.

Zhu Xu shouted behind her, "Zhuzhu, do you need me to accompany you in?" ”

Dou Yuzhu didn't look back, but dropped a sentence in a cold tone: "You don't have to worry about me, you should be busy with yourself." ”

Zhu Xu was stunned for a moment, and no longer had any courtesy to his wife, although he knew that his wife was in a bad mood, but how could he feel good? When his heart is so heavy, where can he get warm words to soothe his wife's wounded heart?

His mood suddenly became blocked, and he couldn't help but blur his eyes with tears when he looked at the back of his wife entering the hospital gate.

The taxi driver was a little impatient, so he reminded, "Sir, can we go?" ”

Zhu Xu let out a long sigh: "Let's go!" ”

"Where are you going?"

"Purple Light Observatory!"

"Oh, that's where scientists gather. Are you also a scientist? “

As soon as the taxi driver heard that he was going to the scientific research unit, he knew that his identity was not ordinary, so his expression became much more respectful, and while accosting him, he drove to the observatory-

Zhu Xu's mood was not as excited as yesterday's moment, and he was completely dim, curious about the taxi driver's chatter, and just replied lightly: "I'm not a scientist, just a logistics staff, and if I don't hear it, I'm a miscellaneous person." ”

The taxi finally arrived outside the observatory's compound, and Zhu Xu got out of the car and walked inside after settling the bill, without saying a word of politeness to the taxi driver.

Because his achievements were like a piece of heavy news that opened the pot at the entire observatory, the colleagues he met along the way were impressed by him and flattered him. However, none of this allowed him to hide the sadness in his heart. Because he realized that he was going to lose a child today. Moreover, judging from the disappointed expression of his wife, it is not ruled out that he will lose her in the future. This reminded him of his senior Liu Xiaoguang. Haven't people lost a whole home?

When colleagues saw that he was the hero of his triumphant return, he was not proud, but on the contrary, he was discouraged, and they all felt inexplicable.

When he walked to the studio, he didn't see Nan Binghuai, but the data clerk Li Zhan went straight to him.

Zhu Xu realized that something was wrong with him and immediately flashed his eyes at him.

Li Zhan didn't say anything flattering, but first smiled and greeted: "Zhu Gong is here?" ”

Zhu Xumu nodded: "Ah." Is there something wrong with you? ”

"It's not that I have something, it's that Professor Nan has something to look for you."

"Professor Nan? Where is he? ”

"He's waiting for you in the conference room."

Zhu Xu was a little stunned: "Why are you in the conference room?" ”

Li Zhan had to explain: "Professor Nan is presiding over the meeting. ”

Zhu Xu nodded suddenly, and then glanced at the entire studio, and sure enough, there were some backbones missing.

When he knocked on the door and entered the conference room, the meeting presided over by Nan Binghuai had already begun. Zhu Xu was already late because he was sending his wife to work.

His face was a little feverish, and he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that the meeting was held today, and I was late." ”

Nan Binghuai didn't mind, made a gesture to him to sit down, and continued the meeting.

Zhu Xu was depressed, so he didn't listen carefully to what Nan Binghuai was saying, and his mind was full of mush. His mind was full of his wife's miscarriage...

Nan Binghuai did not procrastinate at the meeting because of the heavy scientific research tasks, and immediately announced the dismissal of the meeting after concisely arranging the tasks for the next stage.

When those colleagues got up and walked out one after another, Zhu Xu was still sitting there in a daze, completely unaware of what was happening around him.

Nan Binghuai finally realized that something was wrong with him, and when the assistants were gone, he coughed heavily at him.

However, Zhu Xu was still indifferent and full of sadness.

Nan Binghuai was a little surprised, not understanding how this most proud assistant could become a fool after achieving an extraordinary achievement?

Nan Binghuai had to step forward at this time and shake his shoulder.

Zhu Xu was pulled back to reality at this time, and suddenly a wit: "Huh? ”

Nan Binghuai's dissatisfied expression revealed a bit of surprise: "Xiao Zhu, what's the matter with you?" How is it like losing your soul? ”

Zhu Xu didn't realize his gaffe at first, so he quickly shook his head: "No, I'm fine." ”

"Are you alright? Do you remember what task I just gave you? ”

Zhu Xu was dumbfounded: "You... You've given me another task? ”

Nan Binghuai said with some anger: "Could it be that the things I just told you have become a deaf ear?" ”

Zhu Xu was a little embarrassed, and immediately lowered his head in shame.

After Nan Binghuai's stern reprimand, his expression became concerned again: "Xiao Zhu, are you tired?" If you don't have good energy, just rest for a few days first. ”

Zhu Xu stood up suddenly, looking pious: "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now because I was thinking about something else, please forgive me." I'm in good shape and can take on any task. ”

Nan Binghuai was still very solemn: "What is the serious thing that makes you lose your soul?" ”

Zhu Xu barely squeezed out a smile: "What's the serious matter?" You're so sensitive. ”

"Xiao Zhu, I watched you grow up. Your expression has betrayed you a long time ago, and it's all at this time, do you still want to hide it? ”

Zhu Xu could no longer hide his emotions under his pressure step by step, avoided his sad expression, and wiped his tears.

Nan Binghuai's expression became serious: "What happened?" Hurry up! ”

Zhu Xu was helpless, so he had to confess everything that happened at home to Nan Binghuai.

Nan Binghuai couldn't help but gasp: "Xiao Zhu, do you mean that Yuzhu is going to have an abortion this morning?" ”

"Hmm." Zhu Xu nodded painfully.

Nan Binghuai suddenly said urgently: "What are you crying about, this stinky boy?" Why don't you hurry to the hospital to stop her? ”

Zhu Xu was stunned: "But I can't leave this project." ”

Nan Binghuai glared at him fiercely: "You are really an idiot. Who said that sticking to her career conflicts with her having children? Why don't you hurry up? ”

Zhu Xu continued to defend: "But... If she insists on having children, she can't do without someone around to take care of her? ”

"It's a problem, but it doesn't necessarily require an abortion, and it doesn't necessarily require you to suspend work to solve it. Let's stop her from having an abortion first. If you hesitate, it's too late. ”

Zhu Xu hesitated, couldn't help but look at his watch, and the time was already past ten o'clock in the morning.

"Professor Nan, I'm afraid it's too late..."

Nan Binghuai hurriedly reminded: "It's really a little far from here to her hospital." You make a phone call to steady her. ”

When Zhu Xu heard this, without saying a word, he took out his mobile phone and dialed his wife's number-

However, he was dumbfounded then: "Professor Nan... She... She's off... It is estimated that it is now on the operating table. ”

Nan Binghuai sighed heavily: "Since the phone can't get through, let's drive there." ”

"But... I'm afraid it's too late..."

"Xiao Zhu, do you still love her?"

"Of course I love."

"Since you still love her, you should rush to her side when she needs you the most. Even if she had a miscarriage, she would be physically and emotionally weak now. Can you just take it lightly? You're so selfish! ”

Under his condemnation, Zhu Xu finally felt remorseful: "Please don't say it... I'll go immediately! ”
