Nan Xun and Bo Cixue knew that Tang Wu wanted to talk to Lan Yue alone. They did not say anything and got up to leave.
After a while, only Tang Wu and Lan Yue were left in the ward.
Lan Yue had his back to the light as he walked toward her.
As she got closer, she saw the darkness and redness in his eyes.
Tang Wu’s entire body was still in pain and she could not sit up. She could only look up at the tall and thin boy standing by the bed. He was bowing slightly, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
They stared at each other for a few seconds, neither of them breaking the silence.
Until he looked around and did not see the baby, let alone any baby items. The hands hanging by his sides clenched into fists and his dark red eyes fell on her again.
He stared fixedly at her, as if he wanted to see deep into her heart.
“What happened?” He spoke to break the dead silence, his voice dark and hoarse.
Tang Wu’s beautiful fox-like eyes seemed to be covered with a shadow and looked extremely dark.
She clasped her hands under the blanket and lowered her eyes, saying to him with an ashen face, “The child is gone.”
Lan Yue’s heart trembled, followed by a sharp tightening.
For a moment, he felt a suffocating pain.
She did her best to control her emotions so that she would not lose control.
But the blood in his body still surged to his head and his indifferent expression darkened. “No, impossible!”
Tang Wu looked away from Lan Yue’s expression. Her voice was weak and ethereal. “Lan Yue, let’s break up!”
Her every word was like a sharp sword, stabbing into Lan Yue’s chest ruthlessly.
She understood him and knew best what words could hurt his heart!
“I want to know why the child is gone?” Lan Yue asked with trembling lips.
When he left the Capital that day, she was still fine. Every time he accompanied her for her prenatal checkup, the child’s heart would beat strongly.
The doctor said that they would have a very healthy baby.
But now, she was telling him that it was gone.
Asmile that Lan Yue could not understand appeared on Tang Wu’s lips. “Why? Because I didn’t listen to my family and harmed my mother!”
“Tang Wu, do you know what you’re talking about?”
It was his first time calling her by her full name. His eyes were filled with blood, as if he was about to cry blood. He was extremely angry.
“What’s wrong with the baby? Why did it disappear just like that?”
Tang Wu’s heart ached when she saw him questioning her with a sobbing voice.
She closed her eyes and opened them again, returning to her usual coldness. “Have you seen the news about Qi Chen and me? The news is not fake because my mother is in a vegetative state. The doctor said that he
wanted to say something to make her happy.”
“I told her that I was willing to give Qi Chen a chance. That night, Qi Chen went to my room to look for me. I was depressed and he comforted me. Then, we got together naturally…”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Lan Yue’s shout. “Go with the flow! Do you think I will believe you?”
This was the first time he had shouted at her since they had met.
Tang Wu’s abdomen started to hurt again. She grabbed the bedsheets tightly with both hands and endured the urge to cry. “It’s up to you whether you believe me or not. From the moment my mother got into the
accident, I started to doubt my previous decision.”
“We were wrong from the start. We shouldn’t have gotten together or had children.” Tang Wu looked at him with red eyes. “I wanted to abort the child back then. If you hadn’t wanted to keep it, 1 wouldn’t have stayed.”
“It’s good that she’s gone now.” Tang Wu’s expression was extremely cold. “Do you know how the child died? The reporters secretly took photos of me after I got together with Qi Chen. I accidentally fell down the
stairs.”
“That’s good too, in case we have anything to do with each other in the future!”
The moment Tang Wu finished speaking, she saw Lan Yue punch her face.
Tang Wu’s pupils constricted and she closed her eyes.
Just when she thought Lan Yue would punch her face, a sharp wind blew past her ear.
Lan Yue’s fist landed on the pillow she was leaning against.
His usually handsome and clean face was now ferocious and distorted.
He leaned down, his lips approaching her ear. “This is not true. Tell me quickly, you’re lying to me!”
Tang Wu gritted her teeth. “Do you think I would lie to you about this? Lan Yue, love without the approval of my family is really tiring. I’ve endured too many things with you. I’m tired, tired, and tired.”
“Before my mother’s accident, I could only endure these emotions. After all, 1 made the choice myself. I have to bear it no matter how hard it is.”
“I really regret falling in love with a poor boy. | harmed my mother and myself!”
Lan Yue slowly raised his head from Tang Wu’s ear. He looked straight into Tang Wu’s eyes, wanting to see if she was lying.
But there was none.
He saw that she had the same gaze as those who were mocking him.
Disdain, disdain and contempt.
Her gaze reminded him of Mother Tang.
That kind of humiliation was unforgettable.
He slowly straightened up and took a few steps back, looking dazed. “So you’re like your mother, looking down on me.”
Tang Wu’s heart ached when she saw him retreating like he was empty. Her hand under the blanket almost reached out to pull him back.
Hot tears fell from the corner of his eyes that he could not see.
She heard herself saying to him, “Yes, I despise you.”
Lan Yue’s eyes were red and his facial features were almost distorted. He was angry and hateful, but what could he do?
Strangle her to death, then commit suicide. Would the family of three reunite in the afterlife?
He looked up slightly and started to laugh coldly.
His tall and thin body staggered toward the door of the ward.
When he was about to reach the door, he stopped and turned around. “Okay, I agree to break up with you.” His voice was hoarse and broken. His bloodshot eyes looked elsewhere and did not look at her. “A poor boy
like me is indeed not worthy of you. The baby is gone and the last thought between us is gone.” He had never thought that their fate would be broken just like that.
“I admit that I’m useless. I can’t give you the life you want and I can’t get your parents to like me!” Lan Yue nodded and tears fell onto his well-defined face. He raised his hand and quickly wiped them away. “In the
future, I won’t be your stumbling block anymore. Let’s not appear in front of each other again. Let’s just stay like this and never meet again!”
Although he was full of resentment, grievance and pain, in the end, he only said, “I wish you happiness.”
As the door closed, Tang Wu blacked out.
When she woke up again, it was already late at night.
The servant who was taking care of her was sleeping and footsteps sounded in the ward.
Aman in black was standing by the bed with a baby in his arms.
Tang Wu struggled to sit up, but her body was in pain and she could not sit up at all. “I’ve already done as requested. Return the child to me.”.
